Berlin day 3-Pictures as well!

Hi Guys!
So, here is day 3!
we were woken up again at about 7:30 to have breakfast (pretty decent again!) and started to pack up our stuff, even though everybody in our room had managed to not pick up a key card, so we had to get let back into our room by a staff member!!!! We took our bags to reception then went back to the station to buy even more food. We then walked to the Mall of Berlin to do some much needed SHOPPING! I stayed with my best friend Austin and his buddies and we ate, and looked for tea(successfully)we then headed back to the Brandenburg gate to have a last look before walking back to the hostel to get our bags and get the train to the airport. 

At the airport, our teachers gave us 10euros to spend, so I got a lipstick and a pretzel. Soon it was time to go to our gate( ridiculously packed) before getting on the plane. I was sat on an aisle seat next to my friends Austin and Issy. She managed to sleep whilst Austin and I messed around for the two hours. We landed, got through passport control, and got to the coach. Finally we arrived back at school at about 1AM and my friend Katie and her Parents were kind enough to give me a lift home where i collapsed into bed.  My friends made this trip so much better so thank you Katie, Chloe, Naomi, Emily, Issy, Ellie, Joanna, Amy, Helena,  and Austin. I would've been far grumpier without you all


I know this one was short, but we didn't do much, and i've decided to add some pictures as well, so enjoy!

hope you enjoy the final part of my travel diary and thank you all for reading,
love from

Berlin travel diary day 2

Hey guys!
So this is day 2 of my trip to Berlin with school!

we woke up at about 7am so we could all shower and then there was a knock at our door, I was still in my pjs at this point, but I went to open it, only to find 3 MALE teachers standing there, as you can imagine, I was slightly embarrassed, but my pjs were cute! haha. anyways, we all got showered and dressed, then went down for breakfast. This was actually pretty decent because there was a wide range of foods for us.  My friend and I went to register before heading to the station(see, we were there A LOT!) to go to Sachsenhausen, which was a concentration camp. On the train, thick snow started to fall. As we started to walk (yes WALK!!!) about half a mile from the station, the snow got gradually thicker and faster. Sadly it didn't stick.

We got to the camp and had a very compelling tour. It really made me think about the awful conditions that these people had to survive through. We heard some horrific stories from the camp. I believe that everybody should visit a concentration camp at some point in their lives, because it's so important that this never happens again.

After the tour, we walked back to the station. At this point, the wind and snow were absolutely horrible and I couldn't physically move my face. Thankfully we got onto the train and back into Berlin. My friend and I ate our... interesting... lunch on the train. We then went to the Story of Berlin Museum and Bunker. This was probably one of my favourite parts of the trip because we saw more than just the war, and how it was before and after, as well as during soviet control. I also enjoyed it because we were inside!!!! After that we finally went back to the hostel to have dinner and relax for a bit.

After dinner we walked to the Reichstag building, (the German Parliament building) and we went up to the glass dome. For the second night in a row, we had amazing views of Berlin, which will never leave my memory.

we got back to the hostel at about 10pm so started to get ready for bed. My room were in bed by 11, apart from Emily (thanks Em for keeping us up!) and I gradually fell asleep... until I was woken up by everybody running up and down the corridor outside our room and shouting. I lay there fuming for about an hour until our teachers came to shout at everybody to go to bed.  Then I went to sleep very very quickly.

That was day two! i'm so sorry for the long gap! Day 3 will definitely have a shorter gap between!!

Berlin travel diary 2017

hey guys! So it is my half term and I have been trying to think of an idea for a new blog post for agess, but as you can see it hasn't exactly worked, so I have decided to do a Travel diary. Last month I was lucky enough to go to Berlin, Germany with my school on a history trip. we left on Thursday 12th January at the most ridiculous time imaginable. 3:30 AM?!?!?!?! Which meant I had to wake up at 2:45!?! So When I got to school, I registered and sat down next to an *acquaintance* because my two friends hadn't arrived. We drove to London Standstead, and I tried to sleep, but thanks to the boys behind me, that didn't last long AT ALL! (thanks Joe, also known as the bane of my existence!!). At about 5:40 we arrived at the airport, so we got into our registration groups to walk up to security and check in. In the queue, I managed to stand with my best guy friend(known since reception!) and we were talking rubbish because it was about 6am in the morning and we don't like being up at that kind of time. It took a while to get through security, because there were 70 just from my school, then the general public. Plus a couple of us had a LOT of stuff! After being a loud to get some food, we went to board the plane. I ended up getting a window seat, however I was sat next to two boys who I'm not too friendly with, but we all just slept on the flight, so that's okay. We got to Berlin at about 10:30, then a train to the city centre to drop our bags off at the hostel, which I thought was actually quite nice. I was sharing a room with 6 other girls, and we had a shower room and a toilet with 2 sinks and we had 3 big mirrors, which was good when we were all doing make up in the mornings!! We walked back to the train station(genuinely spent most of the trip here!) and went to get lunch. then we walked across the river to the Brandenburg gate and did a walking tour. I thought that the guy who did it was really good, but we were all so tired that nobody properly appreciated it. This lasted 2 hours and led us to a museum (name slips my mind now) however our feet were sooo cold that my friends and I just sat there until it was time to head back to the hostel. Whilst we were sat there, I had a conversation with a couple of my favourite teachers about TV and the evening activities, Oh and of course sleeping! We quickly headed back to the hostel via the train station, to have a questionable dinner of weird sausage things with cream(?) in the middle and salad, then we got back onto  a train to the Berlin TV tower. we had amazing views of the city and my close friend and I had another conversation with the brilliant teachers on the trip about. At 9:30, we headed back to the hostel to go to bed(FINALLY!). As soon as we got to the room, we were all getting ready for bed and I'm sure i was asleep by about 10:30!!   Day 2 and 3 will be up VERY SOON I PROMISE!!   Love from  Ebonydaylightt x x x x Instagram: @ebonydaylightt

New era!

Hello guys!  So if you follow my Instagram, you will know that I posted a selfie! I wanted to tell you all that I'd love to start doing things like makeup tutorials and outfits of the days. I hope you would like me to do it.  Anyways... moving on, I got my mock results back, and let's just say I'm not the best student in my year :| this year I'm doing my final exams for GCSEs and I know I need to work sooo much harder. However I got a B in my history mock. I know it's not amazing but I'm so proud of myself for doing that because writing long answers really isn't my strong point!   Hope you liked this Tiny post and I promise to do more VERY soon!  Lots of love, Ebonydaylightt x x x x  Instagram: @ebonydaylightt
