Being back, and my thoughts on the Neknomination faze.

Ahoy there! 
So it's been quite a few days since I last posted and I wanted to let you know what's new in Dinky's World. Not a lot has really happened apart from it was my mums birthday yesterday. She had a nice day which makes me happy. I've been doing my usual, crafting, shopping, working on Dinkykts EDS Diaries and taking each day as it comes. 
I am glad that I am back writing again, it's been too long and I have missed it. However after talking to a few people, I'm working on not doubting myself as much and keep on writing. I think when things happen in your life that are negative, you do get kinda lost and unfocused. Like I used to do, I want to use my experiences and emotions to my advantage where writing is concerned. As I'm on a journey to start afresh, take chances when they arise and do the things that I love or inspire me. I know I do need to start believing people when they say they think my writing is good for whatever reason and not worry about negative comments. One thing I do know is that when life is going along smoothly and exciting, I have lots to say but when I don't, I have nothing to say. I place myself in the shadows of myself and distance from the world. I hope I'm not repeating myself as I'm just writing from my heart straight to this post. Like I said in my first post, I am on a journey to find myself again. 
On a totally different topic for a moment, I wish this Neknomination faze would stop! The creativity of some of the videos are interesting but that's the only positive about it. Everyone knows the dangers of drinking alone so downing a pint of alcohol is absurd and beyond belief. I don't really find it classy either. I find it sad that there have already been two deaths linked to this and I'm sure there will be more. I'm a very open minded person but this is a dangerous and pathetic act which has somehow made people become sheep like. I know I may get bashed for this but it is my opinion. Let's see what the next faze will be... The sooner it starts, the better. 
Anyway I'm going to love and leave you now. I will talk to you soon which will probably be after my cousins wedding at the end of the week. Take care and keep smiling!! xxx

Children with Gadgets

Hello everyone, I've been thinking back to a few weeks back when I was having a conversation with somebody. The topic was about kids having technical gadgets like games consoles, kindles, iPads and so on.  Going back to when I was a child, we didn't have all of these. Yes we had an Atari but that was for the whole family and I was in my teens by the time we got it. I had actual children's toys like Lego, Sindy dolls, and other toys. For the days that it rained or was too cold, I'd spend hours playing with these toys and I enjoyed arts. I'd do painting, making things and writing stories.  I liked to play out on the street with the other kids on the street. There were skipping ropes, pogo sticks and that ball with the rope toy etc. It was so much fun and meant we  learnt how to be creative, socialising and getting the exercise needed.  Another thing that kinda annoys me is when parents give their little kids kindles and iPads or even putting a DVD on fo

Child Prodigy

It was just the other day when I came across a documentary by Keith Allen filming James Harries who is now known as Lauren Harries. Does the name ring a bell to you? He was the 80s/90s child prodigy who claimed to know about Antiques. He had thick, curly blonde hair and always wore a dicky bow tie. I'll post a picture of him as a young boy, I'm sure you'll remember him when you see him. Back to the documentary. James is now Lauren after a sex reassignment operation. I actually think she still seems confused and delirious. In fact the whole family are living in a world of fantasy, delirious, disfunctional and delusion. All the way through I kept an open mind, in a way, I kind of felt sorry for them. All those years ago, Mark and Kate must have been really desperate to push their youngest son into the limelight forging a claim that he could do antiquing at such a tender age. I thought it was good that Lauren had counselling during the treatment but when i

How I Created This Eye Look!!

Image
Hi everyone! I want to tell you how I created this eye makeup look on myself from last week. I think it looks really nice and quite natural which is great for every day style.  The products that I used are as follows; Rimmel UK - Pinkadilly Circus Eyeshadow Palette ‘Rosie for Autograph’ by Marks and Spencer - Cream Eyeshadow Stick GOSH COSMETICS - Forever Eyeshadow Stick Avon UK - True Colour Glimmersrick Eyeliner  Benefit Cosmetics - Bang BadGal Mascara  How I created this eye look . I started of by applying the the lightest shade which is a white colour all over the lid as a base.  Then using the light pink along the crease line and all over the lid. Starting from a third off the inner corner, I applied the slightly darker shade just along the lid.  Then with the darkest shade which is like a dark pinky/brown in the outer corner. This creates like a smokey eye effect. I didn’t think it was showing up as much as I hoped so I decided to apply some of the ‘Rosie’ Eyeshadow Stick in the
