I am now completely obsessed with Leon Restaurants. The food is healthy and tastes absolutely delicious, I had The Leon Gobi today. This is the future of fast food, and I can't wait until they open more restaurants.

I got burnt!
The sunniest day of the whole year by far, not a cloud in the sky, and I wanted to make the most of it so I spent all day out in it.
I revised in it, read my book (Just Jealous by Anne Cassidy), listened to my ipod and just sunbathed.
But of corse, now my face is as red as a tomato.

Hollister, Jack Wills, Franklin & Marshall Wishlist
So I gave in and made wishlists for Hollister, Jack Wills and Franklin & Marshall.
HOLLISTER:
JACK WILLS:
FRANKLIN & MARSHALL:
I love this photo of a girl in Franklin & Marshall. It is completely my style and the girl is so pretty and has a really nice figure, although I think her legs are a little on the thin side.
What do you think?

Walking home today it was gorgeous - the sun had come out which is a fairly rare occasion. Getting home I wanted to be out in it, but it was too cool to sunbathe and I wasn't in the mood to read my book, so there was nothing really to do outside. I wanted to go on the computer and a wave of longing came over me for a laptop.
Now I only get £6 a week pocket money and most of that goes on clothes and my social life, so it will take quite a long time, but nevertheless I have dug out a piggy bank and I am going to add some money to it from time to time and hopefully in a year or so I will have enough to buy one.
Its not like I want a really expensive one or anything, just a small notebook with a wireless adaptor and a little bit of space for some music and photo files.
And by the way, if anyone really rich is reading this right now, you know what to do to make a little 15 year old incredibly happy :)
P.S. You can see that I have added a new box in the sidebar that says how much is in my laptop fund at the moment :P

Carbon Diaries 2015
Just finished reading this book about a girl in year 2015 where everyone in the UK is on carbon rations. Well written and ever so interesting! I would highly recommend it.
NY Cinnamon & Raisin Bagels
I am absolutely addicted. 215 calories never tasted so good, or lastest so long, filling you up aswell. Possibly the best food ever.
Food binge
After stupidly eating my lunch at 11.40am, I came home hungry. The problem is, once I start eating, especially because there is so much nice food in the house, I cant stop. It doesnt help my goal to get down to a size 8 by November :(
Anyone wanna be diet buddies? I need to start writing down a list of food I eat everyday cause apparently that makes you eat less.
Here is what I ate when I came home today:
- packet of Walkers cheese & onion crisps
- banana
- banana
- 3 chocolate orange segments
- a rollymop herring
- a mini Milky Way
- packet of Fridge Raiders Chicken Tikka flavour chicken breast pieces
It all comes to over 700 calories! I will try to get out of eating dinner tonight.
I am not fat but I'm unpropotianed. I am a small size 6 on top and a rather large size 10 jeans size. I want to slim down my hips and legs to a size 8, at least. But it isnt working cause I just binge and I cant stop once I start. I know it is all psycological, but I need someone who will be like DONT EAT THAT, cause doing it by myself isnt working.

Topshop + Miss Selfridge Wishlist
Went on Topshop and Miss Selfridge and made a wishlist. Don't know why I do it, its always so depressing knowing I can't have it. Here it is: 
I might make one on Hollister, Abercrombie, Franklin & Marshall and Jack Wills. That list would actually be amazing.
I've got to go now - revision! Oh, the joy of being a teenager.

What I found...
I thought I'd post a couple of interesting and pretty sites I found while I was browsing the net.
The lovely design of these blogs reminds me that I must do something more exciting with this one. Hopefully I will have time to do that tomorrow in between revising for my business GCSE which I have on Thursday :/
I like this image that I found on Found Type Friday. I love the idea of the website too!
Scolling through this site I love some of the images.
Why The Climb?
This all began while I was sitting in my ICT GCSE today. I finished in the first 20 minutes of an hour exam, so I had a lot of time to just think. That was when I decided I wanted to write a blog, to share my thoughts to the world.
I thought of names and eventually settled with 'route 17'. I don't know why. I have always liked the number 17, and I wanted something that would suggest a journey, because that's what life is. So route 17 was good. It was when I was sitting on the bus on the way home that I questioned it. And walking down the road on the way home, 'The Climb' by Miley Cyrus boomed on my ipod. And I was decided.
Take away all the Disney hype and some of the cheesyness, the song is extremely inspirational and the words are brilliant. The url is 'the climb 17' because some random spanish person had already taken theclimb. But at least I got to incorperate my favourite number!
So that is how the name came to be.
The Climb Lyrics
I can almost see it
That dream I’m dreaming but
There’s a voice inside my head sayin,
You’ll never reach it,
Every step I’m taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high
There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb
The struggles I’m facing,
The chances I’m taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I’m not breaking
The pain I’m knowing
But these are the moments that
I’m going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on,
There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb
There’s always going to be another mountain
I’m always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain’t about how fast I get there,
Ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side
It’s the climb
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It’s all about
It’s all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

THE CLIMB 17
It's not like I've never done this before. First posts are always pretty boring, so let me just give you a quick insight into why I've started this blog.
When I finished primary school in year 6 my teacher who we were all very close to wrote each student in my year of 30 pupils, a letter. One of the things she put in mine was "don't stop writing L, you'll make your millions!" So since, every now and then I've written a few poems, and even a short story which I got published in a national magazine. I keep a diary and write in it every few weeks to keep an update, but I never feel like I'm getting anywhere. I want to tell people things, spread messages, my thoughts. Not keep it all hidden away behind my bed with a key. So that is why a blog is a good idea.
I was into web designing a few years back and started a blog which followed on from that. I got a domain and everything but stupidly told my friends who made fun of it. So I deleted everthing and stopped. That is why I am keeping my name as 'L'. I was going to make up a new one but I couldnt think of one, so just L is fine for now. I thought I could make a new start with this blog and hopefully it will inspire people.
I don't expect many people to be reading this. Seeing as it is a completely unknown blog at the moement. But hopefully I can get into the world of blogging again and find some new blogs that will inspire me, too.
So if you are reading this, just drop a comment to say hi. I would really appreciate that.
