Yes. More of my geek glasses, and oh look, a geek to accompany them.


IT’S MY BIRTHDAY IN 3 DAYS!
On the 28th March I’ll be 21 years old. I know, I know. I don’t look 21. I’m sure I will continue to be I.D’d for 18 films and cigarette paper (not for me might I add). I will still have my I.D questioned by bouncers outside nightclubs and bars and always quizzed on my postcode and middle name. Lot’s of people call me “doll face”. I’m thinking this is just a nicer way of saying “baby face”. I’m not going to lie, I’d love to wake up on Monday morning with a mountain of cards and the postman knocking on the door with a huge bunch of flowers and helium balloon for me, however, this will not happen. haha. We can dream though right? I’m still not 100% sure of what i’m going to do on my Birthday. I didn’t realise quite how indecisive I was. Whatever it may be, I will be sure to capture it and update you.
I was seriously so overwhelmed by the massive response to my last post. It had the most comments ever ever ever in my blogs entire history (I think). I’m so glad that so many of you could relate. I also love that it reassured you that you weren’t the only ones. I know it reassured me immensely. I sat and read through every single comment, and felt a great accomplishment knowing i’d made so many of you feel so much better. I know it can be a pretty touchy subject, but 99% of you knew exactly where I was coming from. :)
I’m getting slightly bored of my blog. It’s very basic and messy and just not very…advanced or well-put-together. If any of you techy-whizzy-geeks out there fancy designing me something or giving me any tips or ideas please feel free to email me. I’m definitely stuck in a rut. Also, what do you lot think? What is my blog lacking? I need your expertise and advice as you are obviously the ones who read it.
I am SO happy the sun is coming out, and I have decided this weekend that if the sun still has his hat on, I shall be whipping out the maxi dress and flipflop combo. Too early?
Just want to say a little (well, massive) thank you to everyone who follows my blog. I don’t say it often, and I probably should, but I appreciate every single one of you; even if you don’t follow my blog, but come by every now and then to check up on it. I also have over 14,000 subscribers on YouTube now, and this astonishes me. I swear i’m dull as dishwater?! I’m so pleased that so many of you enjoy reading/watching my rambling nonsense.I don’t really understand it, but it makes me very happy. haha. I never was very good at speeches or public speaking. Now you can see why. *blushes*


  1. so cutes! you have lips like a porcelain doll. have a great 21st, mines in december and i keep thinking about it. i never have parties because everyones skint from xmas and stuff so it's always a letdown! you're lucky to have one in march!

  2. Aah Zoe don't be silly- your youtube videos are fab! and i'm a picky so and so when it comes to youtube!
    Your last post really was incredible to me, and for such a popular blogger it means a lot that you'll have sat down and read through our comments – i hope they reassured you as much as you did us.
    Aaand as for what to do on the blog, i kind of love it just as it is! Lame i know, and so unhelpful [sorry!] but you've got something unique, which is always a joy to read sooo just keep doing whatchya doin! xx

  3. Your last post deserved all of the comments it received it took a lot of guts to be able to write it and I think a lot of people, including me were glad you decided to post it!

    Happy 21st for this week also lovely :) x

  4. You are so pretty/cute! I'd love to hear what you're doing for your birthday because mines in a week & I have no idea what to do! x

  10. Monica

    Having a doll face is never a bad thing! I will most likely be ID'd for life as well, I've always looked younger than my age.
    You are not as dull as a dishwasher, missy!

    Have a good weekend,

It's great that you have the confidenced to do youtube videos – I would never be able to do something like that! For my English GCSE I have to stand up in front of my class and talk to them about OCD and seriously I am sosososo scared I have always been totally rubbish at speaking out loud, even if I just ask a question in class I seem to develop some kind of weirdness with my words!xx

  21. Hannah

    You're so pretty and I think you really suit geek glasses, despite what you said!xxx

  22. You are so beautiful :) xx. Happy early birthday.

  23. Excuse me Pooptitties (yes everyone, Zoe actually said the other day "Why dont more people call me 'Pooptitties' when I love it so very much?"), but I have sent you a smashing card! I also sent flowers and balloons but they are the magic kind, that you can't see with your eyes, only your imagination. They're good though, cost a fortune xxxx

  24. ggrrrr, i cut my hair frankie sandford style and it used to be like up to my boobs, and now you make me want to go out and buy every hair growth product in the world and a set of extensions ! i love, love,love your hair !! and you !x

  25. um love love love your blog. your style has really been inspiring me lately when i put together outfits, and your hair and makeup is always gorgeous! most of all you just have the cutest little sense of humor, which i think comes through well in your youtube vids too. just had to show some love! <3

  26. Awww darling, you so, so deserve it. And you as dull as dishwater? Ummmm, no way, you're mistaking yourself with someone else! <3

  38. i actually find your blog very clean and nice to read b/c the pictures really pop and the graphic on top is so pretty. have a wonderful birthday! go nuts!

  39. Hey, I love ur blog and ur youtube channel!
    I really like people doing "what makes me happy" at the end of each week on their blogs. Just some random things,a sunny day, a birthday card and things like that. It's just sooo sweet~ U can totally do that IF u like .I just think it's gonna be really cute.

  40. I've always thought you look absolutely stunning! Happy birthday in advance, Zoe. Btw, thanks for mentioning your previous blog post in this post.. I hadn't read it before but I did now. Absolutely loved it – thank you for sharing your story. I've never been in that situation but I know people who would be able to relate to your story. Loved it so much that I posted it on my Twitter, Facebook profile, & Facebook fan page as well haha.. Hope you don't mind :)

  41. What do I love about your blog? Hmmm… Let's see… I love your Someday Summary posts and the quirky pics you post of yourself – just to name a few. What I don't like about it? Well, nothing really. You may think it is dull but trust me, I look forward to reading your posts and watching your videos! You're so real! :-)

  42. hannah

    Well done on 14,000 thats amazing! I hope you have an amazing birthday xxx

  43. advance happy birthday! you are so pretty! :3

  44. You're so pretty and you suit the glasses really well – I am so jealous :)

    Random Question: I was wondering how do you keep your face so clear & fresh?, my face is oily and quite spotty (Forehead most) please can you give me some tips/advice?

    :)

  45. Alex

    The pictures are beautiful! I'm incredibly jealous that you can pull of geek glasses, they just make me look ridiculous, ahaha :)

  53. Happy Birthday for Monday :) I think your blog is fine as it is, it is one of the only blogs that I sat and read nearly all the posts when I first discovered it and didn't get bored. And, as for your youtube videos, I love them, they are not dull at all. I think the great thing is although we can see how gorgeous you are from your pics on here, your videos show you have a great personality, and what a genuinely lovely person you are. x

  54. hey dear =) i've just discovered your channel and blog yesterday , and i'm pretty sure i'll like to discover more of you by reading the posts etc =)
    i hope you will enjoy a loooot your birthday, 21th is so important in the USA ( In france it's 18th ^^)

  58. I really like your blog as it is, so I'm not much help really lol.
    I know what you mean about looking younger than you are I get that a lot as well. I'm pretty much used to it now, but people say I will appreciate it when I'm older so we'll see.
    Hope you have a lovely birthday X

    love

  61. Try turning 26 on Tuesday, I am properly traumatised I think the time has come when I need to start lying about my age.

    As for your latest post I totally agree but this should not only apply to weight. People spit things out that they really shouldn't. For instance last week I had a food allergy and my face had little spots. Well I got to work and one of my colleagues went:'oh what's happened you are covered in spots' well thank you it wasn't bad enough to have to slap 2kg of make up on to feel barely human that you have to make sure I know you have noticed….
