This spoken word documentary really shows the effects of our online habits in everyday life.
If our 600 friends didn’t see the beautiful scenery we just saw – did it even happen?
And if we have so many friends, why are we lonely?
Women are guilty of all of these 5 habits at one stage or another.
If you learn to let them go, you can guarantee a happier and content life.
1. Self-deprecation
Every woman is guilty of saying how big they think their thighs are or how they wish they were a little taller. Learn to love yourself and others will too.
2. Gossiping
Sometimes gossip can seem harmless, but it isn’t to the person you are gossiping about. Quit the bitching and let’s all get along!
3. Not looking after your mind
Hours of junk TV can leave you feeling a bit zoned out. Try to learn new things through reading or going to new places.
4. Jealousy
The green-eyed monster is the reason so many of us ladies don’t get on. Be happy with what you have and be happy for that girl who seems to have it all too.
5. Not looking after your body
You know what they say; ‘Healthy body, Healthy mind’. If you binge on junk food then you can’t expect to feel too good. Eat lots of fruit and veggies, drink lots of water and get 30 minutes of exercise a day to feel in great condition.
Birthdays and parties are always good fun so why not add some more excitement to yours and throw in a theme!
These themes are adult friendly and don’t all require dressing up (though that is the most fun!)
1. Classy
Dig out that ball gown you wore to your debs five years ago and make an excuse to wear it again. Make your theme black tie and have fun being anything but classy in gowns and tuxes at your houseparty.
2. Party in the US
Go all American and get some red cups (you always wanted an excuse to buy them), some hot dogs, Budweiser, Reese’s Pieces, flags and anything else you can think of!
3. Vintage tea party
Bring the girls around for an afternoon of triangle cucumber sandwiches, pastel macaroons and mimosas.
4. 80’s movie stars
Dress up as your favourite 80’s movie star, we’re thinking Sam Baker from Sixteen Candles, and dance the night away with Marty McFly.
5. Garden party
If the weather permits, take your shindig outside and doll the garden up like an enchanted forest. Lots of flowers, garlands, outdoor lighting and fairy lights will have your garden looking magical.
6. 90’s band party
Channel your inner Lene from Aqua and go all out with gummy bracelets and a Baby G watch.

Getting up early has so many benefits.
You’ll be able to fit more into your day than you ever imagined possible and being up that early is gratifying and beautiful.
Here are some ways getting up early can be made easier for you, especially if you are not naturally a morning person.
1. No stimulation
Put away all electronic gadgets 30 mins before bedtime. That means no phone, TV, laptop or tablet. Yes, you can do it!
2. Get enough sleep
You won’t enjoy getting up early unless you are getting enough sleep. That means, the earlier you go to sleep, the early you will be able to wake up.
3. Wake up slow
Set some relaxing music to switch on 15 mins before you need to wake up. This will ensure your mind is gently stimulated before you actually need to get out of bed.
4. Watch what you eat/drink
It is best not to eat or drink anything that will give you too much energy before bedtime. Alcohol is definitely best avoided. Have some caffeine-free herbal tea instead!
5. Gradual
Don’t just go from waking up at 8:50am to waking up at 6am. Set your alarm 15 min earlier each week to make it easier to adapt to and stick with.
Sometimes life can be difficult but there are some things you can do to make it enjoyable and to get the best out of it!
These things will make you a happier person, you’ll see!
1. Have a good breakfast
2. Make a daily checklist for college or work
3. Get some fresh air
4. Pay someone a genuine and nice compliment
5. Get at least 30mins exercise
6. Do something you’ve been putting off for ages
7. Call or meet up with friends
8. Get a cuddle – from your mom, dog, cat or lover, it doesn’t matter!
9. Do something you enjoy; reading, writing, listening to music, watching a movie etc.
10. Have a nice relaxing hot drink before bedtime and just sit.
Model Lara Stone has been married to comedian David Walliams since 2010 and the pair have a son together.
Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Lara admits that she is sometimes surprised by her own life: “I have a house, a husband, a good job, a beautiful baby – at the moment I don’t have anything else to wish for…”
However, that wasn’t always the way for the pretty model who checked into rehab for alcoholism five years ago.
Admitting that drink used to make her aggressive, Lara said: “One day I woke up and thought, I can’t live like this anymore …I’ve picked a lot of fights in my day, but no one ever wanted to hit me back.”
Well, that is probably a good thing given all the money her face has made her!
