What I got for my 14th birthday!

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,

On Wednesday the 4th of July, I turned 14! Although it was a red,white, and blue celebration day, it was also a day to celebrate my birthday! I am so pleased to have gotten this many presents on my birthday because I know for some, that is just not possible. Thank you to my friends and family for the presents, I am eternally grateful.  :)

One of my favourite presents this year was an Instax Polaroid camera! I think my parents decided to get one for me because my friend took a picture of me and her at a party and I really liked the effect. I've already started to take pictures using it.




Next I got some teal blue sliders to wear around the house.



Then I got a really nice two wick candle. I was a bit worried that the candle might smell like one of those really posh toilets since it was lavender scented! Lol. However it actually smelt really nice and I'm excited to burn it.


I know my dad got this present because he has a special place that he goes to to by bath bombs for us. These are macaroon bath bombs that have quite a floral scent. I think my dad chose the nice box too.


Next I got these shorts with really nice sequin detailing down the side which I think really suits my completion!


I also got a pink sparkly flamingo top which I love because I love animals.


I also got another pair of shorts. These ones are high-rise and have got buttons down the front.


Then I got a flowy v-knocked tank top with a chequer board pattern and nice sewn on flowers. This went really nice with the high-rise shorts.


Since I was in desperate need, I also got two pairs of leggings.



I got two books. I've started to read "A dancer in war time" and it seems very good.



I also got a Toblerone,some Lindor chocolates, and some Thorntons chocolates.





I also got a pair of sunglasses which will come in handy for the holidays.


From my grandmother, I got generously given £20 and Cadburys chocolate for me to share with my sister Alice.


I also got given a photos of me from when I was younger.


I also got a present from my friend Emma. She nicely wrapped everything in a gift bag with polka dot tissue paper. I got chocolate buttons and strawberry laces which I managed to eat all.



I also liked the card she made me!!


Here's some of my family's cards.



Do you prefer home-made cards or shop cards? Let me know in the comments below and I will be sure to reply to them.

See you next time,

Bye

XOX, Juliette

    Happy birthday! You made out really well. I love everything you got. Those books look good. It really doesn't matter to me if the cards are made or bought. It is the thought behind them.

      Thank you.Yes, so true. As long as you know that someone has put thought behind a card, it doesn't matter if it is shop bought or handmade.

Oti and Kelvin's epic Samba and Will and Janette's insane quickstep on week 1- Dance Saturday

By -

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, Last Saturday, I watched the first episode of Strictly Come Dancing, 2019! I can't believe how amazing each couple was. For week 1, it was definitely like watching an episode at week 8.  In Kelvin and Oti's samba, Kelvin really maintained great technique, and I think that was what made him have the highest score of the day. For a male to be good at samba they must keep up with the beat of the music because in the samba, you really have to be able to move your hips. I think that was what he was good at doing and it was clear to see because he kept up with Oti. He also had excellent musicality and rhythm during his samba basic and walks. What I would correct is his hand placement, like Craig said because when he was exchanging arms with Oti, his hands were slightly splayed. However, other than that, his performance really looked professional and I think the whole audience was surprised by this dance. BBC Strictly Come

Cambridge Youth Dance Company Taster Session - Dance Saturday

By -
Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post,  Although I would say that my experience with dance in year 13 was a little disappointing because we had very few practical classes, one of the things that I did kind of enjoy doing were the workshops. In these workshops, the school would bring outside choreographers and teachers to come teach master classes to us in person. Initially these workshops were just for students who worked really hard and put in the most effort at school. I thought that I would be one of these students but it turns out I was actually never picked for these workshops. This just exposes the way things worked at Impington! However, I guess because this system really didn't work, the workshops were eventually made available to everyone who did dance and performing arts at the school. This was how I was able to eventually attend these workshops. One of the dance workshops I did, was actually hosted by Cambridge Youth Dance Company, a dance company for you

Week 1 update - My Portugal Holiday

Hello everybody and welcome back to another blog post, After a swift flight to Portugal, we arrived at Porto Airport. We got our luggage, went through security, and got a shuttle to the nearby car hire place. The shuttle, or should I say mini bus, was 1 minute long. Good thing too, because I could not find my seat belt and neither could my mum. It seemed like it was ripped out of its place. However, the driver was really nice and I was luckily because it was not  too rough on the road.  When we arrived at the car hire place, we were greeted by a nice worker, who got down my parents details and driving licences and even wrote his name in Japanese. We mentioned where we were from and how my mum was French and how my dad was half Japanese, half English. That's why he showed us that he could write his name in Japanese. He even recognised that my dad's name, Hideaki, meant the mountains and the sun in Japanese. I know, its quite cringey, but also really cool that he managed to r

Blogmas day 4- decorating the Christmas tree-what a nightmare!⛄🌲

Hello Jujubears and welcome back to another blogmas post, Today I will be talking about what a nightmare it was putting up the tree. Before we get on to the blog post, make sure you are following me to get up to date with my life! I am sure the Jujubear fam will accept you! Now let's get on to the blog post.👉 Our house has basically been a building site. We had no idea that getting an extension could be this stressful. Though we got our floor installed so we could finally get a tree! This time a big tree which we could not get in the past. It was such a nightmare though because the stand for the tree wouldn't work so it took us a whopping two hours to actually get the tree standing. However, we finally managed to and we listened to Michael Bublé  and other Christmas artist whilst decorating the tree. For more amazing pictures like this, check out my instagram📷-  https://www.instagram.com/jujupage1/ How long did it take roughly to put up your Christmas tree
