Inspiring/Motivational 'Fitness/ Weight Loss' Quotes!

Hey!
I have recently been getting back in to 'working out/losing weight' (by working out/losing weight I mean jogging for 3 minutes and then collapsing because I am out of breath and ready to puke). I have been going to an 'Aqua Fit' class on a Monday since October and I really enjoy it. I have also recently started going running with my friend. On top of this I walk pretty much everywhere and I do 2 hours of gym a week at school. So, all in all, I would say I was a 'semi' fit person (I am totally overestimating my physical ability here). 
I thought it would be nice to share some motivational 'fitness/weight loss' quotes for everyone who wants (key word here being 'wants') to get fit/lose weight but has no motivation. 
Just as a quick note: I understand this post might not be to everyone's taste. I am not telling you to start working out/take up running/do exercise/lose weight/get 'fit'. This post is aimed at people who want to start working out/take up running/do exercise/lose weight/get 'fit' but have no motivation/inspiration for it.

Inspiring/Motivational 'Fitness/Weight Loss' Quotes:




This is probably my favourite.


This ones for all the beauty obsessed people like me out there.






What inspires/motivates you?

My Top 7 Pet Peeves/The Top 7 Things That Annoy Me!

Hey! 
Recently I have been noticing a lot of things that really annoy me. As I have a lot of 'pet peeves', I thought I would make a list of my top 7. These 7 things are in no particular order. 
With that said, lets get crack-a-lacking.

My Top 7 Pet Peeves!

1. People who bottle neck drinks that have been bought for more than just them. 
My older brother does this all the time and I hate it. If we have been shopping for food and drink for the family, why do you think its okay to drink straight out of the bottle when other people have to drink out of it too? I really don't understand why it is so hard to use a cup these days.

2. People who don't clean up after themselves.
Don't get me wrong I understand that sometimes you are in a rush and don't have time to clean up, that is fine  but I can't stand people who use the bathroom or the kitchen and don't clean up after themselves. Is it really that hard to rinse out the shower and pick up the shampoos bottles after you use them? Is it really that hard to put the butter back in the fridge and the jam back in the cupboard after you have made your sandwich? I mean, come on people.

3. People who take your things without asking.
This makes me so mad. I will be sitting in a classroom, minding my own business, getting on with my work when all of a sudden some rude person takes my pencil case, finds a pen and takes it without even asking me. Would it have killed you to say 'please can I borrow a pen'? No, I don't think so.

4. People who cough and don't put their hands over their mouth.
I think this is horrible. I understand that sometimes people get sick, I even understand that sometimes people have to come in to work and school when they are sick but I don't understand why people can't cover their mouths when they are coughing. The fact that you have a cold should not stop your arm movement or your hygiene standards. Cover your mouth and then you won't spread germs because, seriously girl, I don't want your germs.

5. Movies/programs that are really loud when there is music playing or explosions but really quite when the characters are speaking.
This is so annoying. Your watching something and you can't hear what they are saying so you turn it up. Then, out of no where, music begins to play and its so loud it nearly deafens you. I am sure what I am watching would be really good, if I could hear it.

6. People who pick at everything you say.
The other day I was walking home with a friend and she needed the bathroom but had a lot further to walk then me. When we got near my house I said 'Would you like to use on my bathroom'. I obviously had said this by accident and she obviously knew what I meant yet she still felt the need to correct me. There is now need for it.

7. People who stand in the middle of the corridor at school.
There are 2500 students in my school. That means 2500 people who want to move around the school to get to their lessons. So, if you don't mind me asking, why are you just standing in the middle of the corridor? Move into the side, use your brain for once. Gosh!

What are your pet peeves?

TAG: The 7 Deadly Sins Of Beauty!

Hey!
I was searching the internet when I stumbled across 'The 7 Deadly Sins Of Beauty' tag. 'The 7 Deadly Sins' have always fascinated me and I often find myself wondering which sin I indulge in the most. 
After watching the trailer for the movie 'Se7en' (released in 1995), I started to wonder if I was murdered because of 1 sin, which one would I die for? I am still pretty undecided but I will let you know if I work it out.
Anyway, lets get crack-a-lacking with the tag.

The 7 Deadly Sins Of Beauty Tag!

1. GREED: What is you most expensive and inexpensive beauty product?
My most expensive beauty product has to be my 'Urban Decay Naked Palette' and my most inexpensive product is my 'MUA Clear Mascara' which I use to set my brows.

2. WRATH: What beauty product do you have a love/hate relationship with?
I have a love/hate relationship with blushers. Sometimes I love it on my checks and think it looks really nice but other times my checks are to natural pigmented and I end up looking like a pink-faced clown.

3. GLUTTONY: What is your most delicious beauty product?
My most delicious beauty product is my 'Miss Sporty Perfect Color Lipstick in 009 Innocence' (I know I have spelled 'colour' the American way but that is the way it is spelled on the lipstick). It smells like watermelon and sometimes I really want to eat it because it smells that good.

4. SLOTH: What beauty product do you neglect, due to laziness?
I neglect foundation massively. It takes forever to apply and blend in and it adds 10 minutes to my make-up routine, ain't nobody got time for that.

5. PRIDE: What beauty product gives you the most self confidence?
Concealer gives me lots of self confidence. I suffer from dark under eye circles even if I have had loads of sleep and I also get spots. Concealer covers those and makes me feel more confident about the way I look and my skin.

6. LUST: What attributes do you find most attractive in the opposite sex?
I like guys who have a good sense of humor and are kind but have a bit of a 'bad boy' side to them. I guess every girl has some form of a 'bad boy' fantasy, right?

7. ENVY: What beauty product would you most like to receive as a gift?
I would love to receive any product from M.A.C as a gift.  I don't own anything from M.A.C ad have wanted to try some of their products for a while but never got round to buying them.

What are your 7 deadly sins of beauty?

Jess's Top Ten Things To Do In March 2013!

Hey!
March is an awkward month. Its not winter anymore but it is also not quite spring and that is what makes it an awkward month. A lot of people get stuck for things to do in March. Easter Sunday is the last day in March and, because of this, people get stuck for things to do until then. 
So I am here to tell you 10 fun things you can do in March.

Jess's Top Ten Things To Do In March:

1. Re-organise your room/house. There is nothing like a good clean up before going into a new season.

2. Go through your wardrobe and make a list of all your spring/summer clothes. 

3. Make a spring/summer clothes wishlist. Every girl needs a new pair of flip flops or a new maxi dress.

4. Make plans for spring and summer. Even if they are just meeting up with old friends.

5. Plan a Easter egg hunt with your friends and family. You are never to old to hunt for chocolate eggs.

6. Try a new outside sport. There is nothing better than getting active in the sunshine.

7. Change up your hair. A new season, a new you.

8. Find that perfect swimsuit. No matter what your shape or size, you can look good in a swimsuit.

9. Feel confident. Summer is coming and it is your time to shine.

10. Do something you would normally never do. I know I say this every month but one day, you will do it.

I hope you go out in March and do these things. If you liked this post please remember to follow this blog. I hope you enjoyed reading this post as much as I enjoyed writing it and I will speak to you all soon.
