Club Penguin Frozen Party ♥ August 2014 ♥


Hey Lovelies ♥ Now this probably looks really random but I have my reasons even though I don't need to explain myself. Anyway I'm signed up to the Disney Movie Rewards UK and at the moment they are/were giving out free 7day memberships to Club Penguin as they were having a Frozen party! I used to play Club Penguin with all my friends years ago..I even had a membership! But haven't been on it properly in years so as soon as I knew I could get a free membership I took that offer and played straight away! As a MASSIVE lover of Frozen I was SOOO excited for this party as I love club penguin parties like the child I am ;) I'm going to give you a overview if you like of the party..and it's no way an adult point of view as I'm only a teenager but act and love things like a total child! On with the party...



Thought I'd start with introducing my little penguin..thinking about this game now...a virtual game where you live your life as a penguin..random or what?! ANYWAY, here I am :') As you can see I'm dressing as my lovely Queen Elsa with my snowman puffle and I'm loving it. If you play, remember or know of club penguin you should know that the penguin clothes always follow a theme and since it was Frozen party month, you could dress you penguins like characters in the movie. 



 

 

 

Wow aren't I great taking all those pictures for you lovelies...joking ;) These are all the clothes that they offered for the Frozen party excluding the troll costume which was nothing special just kind of creepy to be honest. I love these so much and my favourite thing is that they included OAKEN! I love him in the movie but sadly he's always missed out of the merchandise..he isn't even mentioned in some of the stories :( I was so happy when I saw him! As you can see they do Anna and Elsa in their coronation outfits and 'frozen winter' outfits. They also include Olaf, Marshmallow, Kristoff, Sven, Oaken and Hans :') I think that the costumes are perfect, they all look great and detailed just like the movie, they even included eyelashes! I should mention that you have to be a member to buy these items sadly :/




As part of the Frozen party, Elsa gives you a free ice palace to celebrate and transform your igloo :) They also have updated their igloo furniture catalog to a Frozen look which includes sleighs, castle doors, ice furniture, olaf parasols and beach items. I like the furniture they made for the igloos especially the parasol :') 


As I said Elsa gives you an ice palace just like hers to celebrate the party. Of course as soon I received mine I transformed my igloo into Elsa's palace which was stunning! In order to receive the ice palace you have to take part in some challenges by finding Elsa's snowflake all over the island. They are pretty simple to see and it doesn't take long to find them all :) I think that the details that they put into this ice palace is breathtaking from the stairs to the ice chandelier thing that Elsa makes in 'Let it Go'. You can even change your igloo's music to either the instrumental of Let it Go or In Summer. Since I went for an Elsa theme in my Frozen igloo Let it Go was my obvious choice ;)



Ah probably the most important thing to make this a Frozen party, the island change of course. Now on Club Penguin whenever they have a party the island changes to the theme. As you can see from the picture the island transformed into Arendelle to welcome their royal guests. I love how it looks from above and how they even added Elsa's Ice Palace to the map. The palace isn't actually open yet as Elsa is going to perform on Thursday (i think) to Let it Go. I'm not sure if you have to be member or not to watch but I hope not as my membership has run out now :(



The pictures above show the Town (left) and Plaza (right). I personally love it and think really captures the Arendelle image especially with the Arendelle symbol on the floor in the Town. All the shops and places are the same inside as they would normally be which is what normally happens in Club Penguin parties so I didn't mind. 



The Dock (left) might be my favourite transformation of the island as it's just stunning in my eyes. It is the castle and just love it to pieces as it looks like it does in the movie ♥ The lighthouse (dock) is also cute..I think it's meant to be the troll area with Kristoff's sled. I like both of these ♥



The Snow Forts (left) are no longer snowy but looks inspired by Olaf summer dreams. As you can see that the buildings are actually icy but if you use a heart emoji it will melt as true love thaws ♥ I also LOVE the forest and that they including Oaken's trading post :) They even included the barn that Kristoff and Sven stay in :') 



I love how much the beach looks like Olaf summer dreams! It is just perfection ♥ They even have sand snowmen! As I said Elsa's ice palace isn't open till tomorrow (i think) for her to perform in but someone at ClubPenguinCheats   showed them a picture of Elsa's ice place as someone found a cheat to enter using a code or something (details on the website). I personally love this Elsa palace if this is what it is going to look like. I think it perfection and just like the movie one with the long stairs up and little balcony :') 


As you can tell I absolutely love this party! There is loads more you can do including adopting a snowman puffle just like Olaf! The party started on the 21st August and lasts till 3rd September so we still have a week of Frozen party goodness :') Anyway, that's it for my Club Penguin Party overview..I may do more Club Penguin overviews in the future as I actually enjoyed this! 

I'll leave you with our royal guests...I think Anna might be abit excited ;)





August Favourites ♥


Hey Lovelies ♥ I promise that my haul is coming but I felt like doing my august favourites today :') I have more music favourites than anything this time so get ready for my music favourites too :) I will link all these things at the bottom like always ♥

Music


I've been loving Bang Bang by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj. It was my dream to hear Jessie and Ariana on a song together and I got my dream ;) I love Jessie J and she just shows off her strong vocals so much more in this song. I love Ariana in it too and gives a nice harmony to Jessie. Nicki's rap is just great, I really wanna learn it! I have also been loving all the songs from Sofia the First including the princess songs and I Belong :') Katy Perry's new song This is How We Do has taken so getting use to but after listening to it a few times on loop I actually like. I prefer the chorus but it's a good song :')


Beauty


Surprise Surprise I don't have a beauty fav for this month but I did read Zoella's blog yesterday and she has a secret ;) All she posted were a few pictures of bottles and said coming soon so I'm excited! They look like perfume, bath and soap products which is great as she isn't do the makeup root which I'm not normally interested in. I will link the blog post below but I'm sure you will hear more about this from my blog in the future! 


Gaming


I'm a rollercoaster tycoon ;) I bought this game a few months back now and have played it quite alot since. I normally play it with my Dad as we don't do much together but we both enjoy this :') It's Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 Deluxe Edition...if you didn't realise ;) The deluxe version comes with the base game and two expansion packs Soaked and Wild which is water parks and zoos. I enjoy this and recommend it.

Movie



Ok this is a lie this probably isn't my favourite movie of August but LOKI! Sorry if you love Thor but I don't..he is my least favourite hero and if Tom Hiddleston wasn't Loki or I didn't follow The Avengers I wouldn't have bothered to watch this movie. The plot was WAY better than the first one but it still lacked something..probably Loki topless ;) Anyways Tom just made the film better by being in it..and that's all I have to say :')

Book


I found this beauty when I went to a seaside near me with my family and saw an old bookshop. I felt like Belle in this bookshop, it was heaven! This little treasure was just there for me...I've been wanting to get it for a while but decided I might as well now :) It is The Art of Walt Disney and shows pictures and tells you in detail about the start of disney and shows the art and devlopement through all the Disney movies up to Hercules. It even goes into Disneyland and the other parks :') I know that there is a newer version with Pixar in but to me that not the Art of the Walt Disney as Pixar isn't Walt Disney to me :) I love this and a review/overview will hopefully come soon! I'm also VERY EXCITED for Alfie's (pointless blog) and Zoe's (zoella) new books that are coming out this Autumn!

App




I'm addicted to this game! It's a new disney game called Disney Tsum Tsums. They sadly don't sell Tsum Tsum in the UK yet but I know you can get them in the US and I think in Tokyo and Hong Kong :) They are super cute disney plushie things and I will be first in the UK queue when they finally arrive as they are ADORABLE! The game is really addictive and I love it. I can't describe what it is..it's kinda Candy Crush/Frozen Free Fall..I don't really know but it is cute!

Website


For all you Sims or gaming fans you might already know of this site but if you didn't this is like Sims heaven! SimsVIP gives all your Sims news and annocments in one place. I have been using this website for a good few years now and I love it. They do giveaways sometimes for all different things from sims games to simpoints. 

TV


The Great British Bake Off started again in the UK a few weeks ago and I'm loving it. As a massive baking fan this is great to watch and it also proves funny entertainment for that dull Wednesday evening ;) It's on BBC 1 at 8pm on Wednesdays and The Extra Slice with Jo Brand is on Fridays at 9pm on BBC 2. My family has also recently been enjoying Once Upon A Time. I have already seen all 3 seasons but got my family into it over the last week or so. I'm watching them all again..all 66 episodes :') We are on like Episode 10 of Season 1 so wish us luck ;)

That's it for my August Favourites but I will you with some of my favourite ice bucket challenges so far..and I bet you can guess why ;)

Farewell Sims 3 Tag ♥


Hey Lovelies ♥ As you may know as I have mentioned it The Sims 4 is launching very soon. It offically launches on 2nd September but since I live in the UK it launches on 5th September :/ I have played Sims 3 for years now and it's sad to see it go but on to the tag..

1. When did you start playing The Sims 3?
I started playing The Sims 3 in October 2010 I think as I know I got into Sims 2 when Sims 3 actually came out in 2009 and waited at least at year to get it. I now have all the expansions and most of the stuff packs. I love The Sims ♥

2. What do you like most about The Sims 3?
Playing God ;) No I mean like simulating life and doing what you want. It just gives me just another escape when real life gets too much. I also love the community :') 

3. What did you spend most of your time doing in The Sims 3?
I actually probably spend most of my time either creating my sims or house building. I love doing both as I very creative. I will play with a household but I love creating things more!

4. One thing you won't forget about The Sims 3?
I was disapointed in EA when I found out toddlers, pools and the colour wheel wouldn't be included in the base game. I know that they can add pools probably later but it just a base game want that I always play with. I will never forget those amazing features :)

5. One thing that annoyed you the most in The Sims 3?
Definately the routing issues when they just stood still and moaned about not being able to get up the stairs since someone was already using them. I know that they have tried to fix this in Sims 4 and that more than one person can use the stairs so yay! 

6. How has The Sims 3 impacted your life?
OMG the Sims in general has impacted my life massively. I'm not a great social person and The Sims has really helped me with social disscussions :) It has just helped me with life in general and has helped me cope at so many times. Thankyou Sims 3!

7. Will you still be playing The Sims 3 after the release of The Sims 4?
I think I will even if I don't play it again straight away. Sims 4 has so many cool features but misses some Sims 3 features like toddlers, pool and colour wheels so I will play for those reasons :') I can't wait till Sims 4 though!



Farewell Sims 3 and Hello Sims 4! 

I tag my Sims nerd Jessica :)
