Just a quick one!
I'll be off on holiday (I'm staying in a cottage) with my family. I doubt I'll have WiFi or Internet connection (I know, I won't be able to cope) so I can't post until next Friday maybe.
Miss you all! If you actually read my blog!
Love May

#HowTo- No2: Do a push-up
'Sup everyone,
In this post I'll be telling you how to do a push up/press up.
I do push ups every morning to wake me up and to build strength.
Start off by putting long hair up in a ponytail- as it can be irritating to perform this exercise with hair in your face!
Set yourself a target. If it's 2, it's 2. Be realistic. If you've never done push ups before, start small (e.g. don't go for 50!)
Then get into position- lie on the floor face down, hands about shoulder-width apart whilst holding your pelvis up off the floor.
After lower yourself down until your nose and chest almost touch the floor while inhaling.
Now breath out and press your upper body back up to the starting position.
If you don't have the strength, try ladies' push ups. Start with your knees touching the floor to remove pressure.
Have fun(!)
May xx

#HowTo- No1: Stay healthy!
Hello!
This is my HowTo post- no1. And it's on being healthy!
There isn't that much on being healthy. You don't need to sign up to WeightWatchers or anything. Just follow these 3 easy points:
1) Get your 5 a day
I start my day with a glass of orange juice, a cup of unsweetened tea and an apple or banana. That's already 2 of my 5 a day.
For lunch, I take in some carrot or cucumber sticks if I'm not having vegetables with my school meal. Or I get a salad baguette. So that's another 1 of my 5 a day.
For dinner, I have a meal with peas or green beans or sweetcorn or any other vegetables. I'll try and get 2 portions of veg with my dinner and if not I'll have some salad.
For dessert, I'll have some more fruit. Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, mangoes etc.
Getting your 5 a day is really easy and does make a difference
2) Do some sport
Join a sports club! It's easy. You can go to a club on the weekend, or an afterschool club. I play hockey on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. It really helps and I meet new people there.
3) Do some exercise in the morning
Everyday when I get up I do 15 push-ups, 20 sit-ups, 15 butt-lifts and 15 butt-ups along with stretches and 25 jumping jacks.
I do this to the Radio and it really wakes me up.
Butt-ups and butt-lifts both tone the glutes (your butt, haha) and push ups help strength.

Some new rubbish added to blog!
What's up everyone!
I've added some more stuff to my blog- there's a whole new page featuring the question- "Is it important for girls to have thigh gaps?"
There are more quotes on the Beautiful Love Quotes page. Enjoy! If you have a wonderfully romantic quote that you are aching to share, email me and I'll pop it up on there (with your name if you want)
Have fun my lovely weirdos! Just kidding, I'm the weirdo.
