April 2014 on There's something about Alice.

Hello everyone,

How on earth are we in the fifth month of 2014? April was a lovely month, I had my 16th birthday, Easter break and the weather has been pretty good. I have however obviously been gearing up for all my exams (my first one is next Monday- send help) but to be honest, they have been spoken about so many time for so long it feels a little as though they are never actually going to happen, anyone else feel the same? 

Anyway, I loved blogging this April, I just wish i could have done more of it!
