Melissa Strickland's Blog - The Glass Is Always Half Full
Melissa is a Virgo which means she has an outgoing nature and a flair for communication, but not only that but making decisions is an area which she excels in however she does not jump to conclusions simply to please others. People around her will see her as elegant and tasteful and that's people who know her as well as people that have just met her. She makes a great first impression as she connects so easily with people, making her a great networker in the social and business environment. And lastly, some people may think she must have an ulterior motive because you can deal with so many people at once, but it's really that she absolutely love socialising and partying. She is a real 'people person.
This is what her star sign says about her, along with a long list of contributory qualities and expert skills and I hate to say it but Melissa is a true Virgo. I thought I would start with her star sign as, as well as blogging it became a bit of a thing in our house the other day and we learnt so much about each other, like the fact I am definitely a Leo by nature.
Melissa's blog shows her positive and ambitious attitude to life and it will sure take you on a journey. In fact Melissa is the reason I decided to write a blog, you see we are travelling together this summer so the main aim was a travel 'diary' as such, but hers also gives skin/make up advice, funny videos to watch and you can also complete her dissertation survey.
I have known Melissa since the very beginning of university, we lived in halls together and have lived together ever since minus placement year. She is one of the most ambitious people I know and if she wants something she will work her hardest to get there, many people look up to Melissa and find her motivating (me included), she makes me feel guilty not doing work and if you are in a group with her you will want to work your hardest. Not only that but we are complete weirdos together, we constantly create new accents or mimick other accents (Dallas accent at the moment is a favourite) or make up cheerleading dances (have a look on YouTube).
Anyway here is me going on about her, but just take a look at her Blog!

Natasha Sullivan's Blog - Natasha's Blog
Natasha Sullivan has been my best friend since I moved to where my family live now. We made friends because in Year 5, Tash didn't like the group she was with for DT, so her Mum spoke to Miss Nicholls and asked whether Tash could change and Miss Nicholls asked who she would like to go in a group with and Tash picked me!! And as you could say the rest is history. Throughout primary and secondary school we literally lived in each other's shoes, we had pink themed sleepovers, made Scrapbooks, did photoshoots, went to netball camp, went swimming on Sundays, made cakes, went to afterschool nervous, go in trouble, shopped (ALOT), watched alot of films together. You name it, we did it.
Similar to Melissa and I, Tash and I feed each others mentalness, I'm starting to realise it may be me that influences people weird antics. We have gone through many stupid nicknames, the first being 'pinky barbies', which our msn names and our email addresses, but the one that stuck the most was 'Carrot' strangely enough. I'm not really sure how it came about, I think we basically just invented a 'Happy Carrot Day' and that was that and up until we left for uni, there was one girl that still called us this.
Tash's mum once gave me a present, which was a star that I could hang up in my room and it said, 'Friends are like stars, you don't always have to see each other to know you are there'. This is us down to a T, I have seen Tash once since Christmas and we see each other and it's like nothing has changed. These are the friendships I value the most.
Tash's is a fashion blogger, she currently works for Topshop and is the best dressed person I know and she doesn't even spend a lot, eBay works in her favour!! So for tips, advice and just general learning read her blog!!!
