about me

about me
 
 
 
considering I only started my blog not that long ago which means this is only my second post, I figured that some of you may not know much about me so this post is literally where I rant on about myself! Only joking. I'm not actually going to do that, I'm just going to tell you a bit about myself.
 
 


 
 
first of all gymnastics. I don't think I'm very sporty at all but one sport I have been doing for nearly 9 years is gymnastics. I did artistic gymnastics until I was seven and then started acrobatic gymnastics. if you don't know, acro is  a sport where gymnasts work together in pairs or trios and perform dance and acrobatic moves to music.I love my acro club and have some great friends there. my trio gets on really well - most of the time :)- and have done quite a few competitions with them now.
 
 
 
I also have 2 kitties and an obsession with cats! The cat in the picture above is Wilbur and there is also winnie who is on my instagram ( my account name is Rosa.bellamonte ) if you want to see her... I don't know why you would want to but if you do she's on there.
 
I also like clothes and lush! its an interesting pair but I'm a definite lush addict! my favourite lush at the moment has to be the butterball and the mask of magnaminty. butterball is my favourite bath bomb ever! it smells like white chocolate and makes your skin super, super soft and mask of magnaminty makes my face feel soft, fresh and takes the redness away from my spots.
 
 
 
photography , photography, photography! I love it! I cant go on and on about the technical parts of a camera because I have no idea really. when I fist got a camera, I did of course research and also go into curry's pc world , try out and look at different cameras , but I knew only how to take a picture a nothing else. I have two relatives who have dlsr cameras and know lost about them so that is quite useful, I found out how to film on my 'ne on YouTube and learnt the rest through trial and error. Although one thing I have found has
 
     
I have 2 brothers and a gorgeous 15 year old sister who I look up to massively. one of my brothers is my twin and before you ask any odd questions like ' are you identical?' or ' does it feel any different being a twin' I will tell your these questions have been asked before and no boy and girl twins can not be identical and the only thing that is really different about it is that we share a birthday. I don't mind it at all in fact I quite like having someone to open my presents with.
 
I love having an older sister. it means I have someone to talk to , do fun things with and a bonus, I get to have her clothes when they're to small for her which is more when she doesn't like them anymore as she still fits in to most of my clothes! id give anything to be as pretty as her even though she doesn't think she's pretty and I have the best times with her even if she's very annoying and lazy!
 
 
 
thanks a lot for reading this post and comment down below what you want to see. have a good day whenever you read this and wherever you are and the reason I'm not posting this on Sunday like I usually do is because I'm going to a small music festival in Sussex.
 
I cant believe its nearly almost the-dreaded-time back to school  - I wrote it in small letters because I cant bear to look at it- and if you're still in school I hope that this next year is your best so far.
 
 
thanks again,
 
 
 
 
love Rosa :) x

exploring this beautiful earth is one of my favourite things to do.  my favourite type of adventure is one outside with miles of nature around me and even though its quite difficult to take paint with me I love just taking a pen, a pencil and just drawing. You don't need to go far and you can even explore your back garden- ok that sounds really really weird- but you can!
 
 
a school holiday is never an excuse to stay inside and watch TV all day - even though it is tempting! were all guilty of that but one of my new years resolutions was to spend more time outside and it is going kind of well. because it is nearly 2016, it will probably be on my new years resolution next year. its so scary to think that its nearly 2016!
 
 
I find photography such an incredible thing. it scrambles my brain to think about how it captures a moment like that. I love to flick through old photos and remember all the little adventures I've had. I take my camera nearly everywhere I go because one of the things I hate the most is reaching into my bag ,  for my  camera and realising I haven't got it!
 
 
me and my family recently took a trip to Cornwall and during our stay - that makes it sound like we were in some over-the-top posh hotel when really we were in a tent- we visited st ives. I wasn't in a very good mood when we got there and from the view of the car park it just looked like a tiny village with a strip of sand and the sea, lots and lots of sea! which I probably would of liked if I were in a good mood but I wasn't and to me ( very-grumpy-and-tired me )I wasn't anything special. however when we were walking down there I got my camera out, looked through the viewfinder and my mood changed instantly! although it was quite busy , as being a big tourist attraction, I really loved all the little quirky shops full of little treasures.
 
  
in st ives, we went to Barbra Hepworth's garden studio which was sooo interesting. if you don't know, Barbra was an English artist and sculptor who made her smaller sculptures in the workshop we visited. some of the sculptures were inside ( see picture 3 and 5 ) but some were outside as well- hence the garden part of the name! we didn't get to spend long there but I really like how her sculptures were abstract and she even used sting in some!

I really hope you liked my post. please comment down below some more posts you want me to write and thank you very much for reading. I hope you have a good day whatever time your reading this!



love, Rosa :)
