First month wages.

Hey guys,

Firstly if you would like to read last weeks post, click HERE and it shall take you directly.

This month was the first time I had a proper wage. It felt nice to see my ‘savings’ increase. I use quotation marks because I didn’t really have that much left. I decided that because I’d be paid soon I might as well spend that.

I expected to be a little more excited than I was but it was still a nice feeling.
I’m probably more excited this time around. I’ve pretty much spent ALL OF LAST MONTHS WAGES. No idea where it’s all gone.

I know I have bought a few pairs of concert tickets, lots of petrol, maybe some clothes but that’s about it really. No idea where the rest has gone. I’m sure when I get my bank statement I will have a shock. It’s quite surprising how quickly it goes. Normally I am very responsible with my money. I have to be to pay for all things ‘car’, like tax and insurance. But I thought why not be reckless for once. Obviously this month I am back to saving but it was nice to be different for a change.

This months wage is going to be even more because - no joke, I have worked most days. I’ve even done 8 days in a row.. I don’t mind all the hours so much because I actually have fun on my shifts (even though I would like to have a break) The people I work with are funny as hell so we always have a laugh. It’s been nice getting to know a whole new group of people because I haven’t had that in a while. I even have the uniform now so I feel like part of the group and it’s so nice. Cringe but nice.

One of my sisters colleagues have even told her that I am very polite and friendly when she’s been in the shop. It’s really nice to know that you’re doing a good job and leaving a good impression. I’m really happy at this job and when I get used to everything on the post office side of it, I will be well away.

Update: I am no longer only on a temporary contract, but a permanent one!!!:)

I’m very content at the moment. I just hope it stays that way.

Should I stay or should I go? -monthly goals #10

Hey guys,

I’m back, which you’ll be thrilled to know. It's been a while I KNOW.

I could blame my new job because I seem to be getting a fair few hours lately. Or I could blame stuff that's happening in my personal life. But it's my own fault. I've had time. I'm not sure whether to try and start again with this or not. I'm really torn.


I'm sick of putting pressure on unnecessary things. I think I'm going to make this more casual. Everyone needs to vent and honestly, hardly anyone reads this anymore anyways. So it's not hurting anyone.


I've been thinking of getting a tattoo recently. I have pretty much made up my mind but I just need the courage to go for it. Although I might be better off waiting until after Christmas unless I hurry. I have no idea what to do. Maybe it's a bad idea but I am actually sick of being the sensible one. Everyone I know has made reckless decisions or mistakes so why can't I? Fuck it.

I have been debating on pushing myself a lot recently. I have been reading up on my 'natal chart report' - no idea if that's right. Basically it tells you all about your sign and the positions of all the moons and stuff when you were born and how this contributes to your personality. I think...
I find it quite interesting, because these are specifically more personal than say, just reading your horoscope in a magazine. General horoscopes tend to be vague so they almost relate to anyone reading. But these charts are in depth and seem to be pretty accurate. It's actually quite interesting to me. I've been learning a lot about it all.
Now, in part of it, it said that I'm not the sort of person to go to the cinema alone which is 100% true. Most people I know are the exact same so it's nothing special but it is true. Whenever there is a film I'd love to see I always think 'who would like that, who would go see that with me?' 9/10 I don't even get to go because people are busy, not interested or I don't have much money budgeted.
At the minute there are two films I want to see, A Simple Favour, and A Star Is Born. And tomorrow I'm thinking of treating myself. Because why the heck not? So what if I look like a loner, again...fuck it. I'm sick of caring what others say or give a damn about.

It's either going to make me really anxious and I'll end up leaving early OR it could be really empowering and good for my confidence. So who knows. I shouldn't really go because I've almost spent my first months wage and we're only half way through the month... but lol.

Just in case you missed my face.

Monthly Goals #9

Hey guys,

If you want to read #8 click HERE.

You may have noticed that I did actually take some time away from these posts. I was going to miss this week too because I've had to deal with quite a big change again and I don't really do well with change. However, I figured that's how bad habits start so here I am. I'm back baby.

In the previous monthly goals post I wanted to work on my Psoriasis with the original cream that seemed to work for me. I started well...but it didn't last long at all. I should probably do this again. Honestly this will probably be in every months post. 

I also mentioned working on some art again. I have actually done this one! Well done me. I bought the procreate app on my iPad. I like it but I am definitely still learning how to use it. I have always done more sketches using pencil/ink more than anything so its a big difference. I still have a long way to go. One thing I do struggle with on the app is the sizing of the canvas. I normally use the screen size but then have a habit of zooming in and then I have a fair bit of negative space. Either that or I over estimate how much space I have.
I shall leave a few bits that I am fairly happy with, obviously not fabulous or anything but its mainly
so I can look back on my progress.

Now for this months goal. I am definitely going to focus on my blog more. I have neglected it for so long and fell out of love with it. I'm changing that. I will hopefully plan some posts in advance, ones with actual thought behind them. I also want to do more makeup posts too and I hope to have at least one in this month.

A lil rant

Hey guys,

I’m actually thinking of having a break from this. Here’s why.

Firstly, I have forgottten why I started and why I enjoyed it. Now on a Sunday I have no ideas and no motivation to even get my laptop out. What’s the point in half arsing something? I want to be proud of what I post again, like back when I did my #BeautiesOnFire posts. Maybe I’ll plan some makeup posts because I did used to like those. I’ve also started doing art again (yay) so that’s another thing to dabble into.

Secondly, I’ve been to the doctors quite a bit lately. A few weeks ago I went to A&E because my gallstones were playing up pretty bad. It’s the worst pain I’ve ever experienced honestly. While I was there they took some blood for tests and such as they do, and turns out the results weren’t quite right again. They wrote to my GP explaining everything and recommended another blood test. Turns out I’m anaemic again, which is quite funny because it was also this time last year.

So back on iron tablets and I’m having more blood tests soon. I also have an appointment at the hospital ( I think) to discuss removing my gallbladder. So honestly I’m just a little befuddled - the only word I could think of. I haven’t been feeling like great about myself lately which has made my psoriasis flare up, despite me trying to fight back at it with a brand new bottle of cream.

Honestly I think I need to give my head a rest and recharge. That’s what it feels like anyway.

I probably will write next week because I always feel guilty for some reason. So, see you then.

Monthly Goals #8

Hey guys,

If you want to read #7, click HERE.

So, last month I challenged myself to try and control my Psoriasis just a little. Since then I have been religiously applying a different cream to see whether it makes a difference or not. Luckily this cream doesn't make my arm feel on fire, it just stings a little. However to me it doesn't seem to have even affected it.

I have noticed that it is kind of dryer in a way. I can't explain it any other way. It definitely hasn't helped my knees at all. they've only been getting worse (yay...)

Honestly, I might try and do this again this month too but go back to the other cream. Then compare them both to see which I am better using.

I would say that I achieved my goal because I actually did well for applying the cream as often as I could. So go me.

This month I think I may revisit the art goal I set a while ago. Obviously I didn't manage to achieve this one. But recently I have been thinking of 'challenging my brain', when I was at college I always had things to research and learn about and now I have nothing. Nothing to really challenge me intellectually - and I actually miss it.

I think I will try and write myself a brief, and then work towards it. By making a brief I'll be able to follow it like I was at college, like it is a proper assessment. When I have finished I will be able to include photos of my work in the next 'Monthly Goals' post and I could ask a few friends to see what they think and include that like someone has marked it for me.

I'm excited for this.

Adios amigos!xo

P.s. I managed to finish my book! Woo.

A collection of some of my favourite photos #2

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well.

I'm not going to really say much in this post as I'd rather just post some of my favourite pictures for the future me to look back on.
I have already done one of these posts so if you want to look at those beauties click HERE.

I love these.

Adios amigos!xo

Getting out of a slump.

Hey guys,

I really need a better 'intro' but I hope you're all well.

This whole week has been quite the challenge. Mainly mentally.

I think it was down to hormones from my period but I have had a weird week. There was a day when I looked in the mirror and didn't even recognise who was looking back at me. It was ever so strange, it was like I was only half there. But I couldn't snap out of it.

On Wednesday I decided to actually make an effort with my appearance and applied some makeup. This definitely helped bring my mood up a lil', it always will. I'll get to 90 and still be winging that liner - well, hopefully.

I did also manage to get on the exercise bike for half an hour one day too. I was doing well working out and that however I have snapped out the routine so I haven't really done any in about two weeks now. I do believe that working out and exercise does help with your moods, personally anyway. Especially because I would do it in the morning, you get a sense of accomplishment so even if the rest of your day goes to shit, you know you still managed to do something productive that day. I'm going to make myself snap back into the routine because I actually miss it.

This week I also didn't believe anyone wanted to actually talk to me. When I did, I thought they didn't care for what I had to say, like it wasn't valid. I have no idea why - well hormones but you know. I even thought it about my mum. I mean, if you know me, you'll know I'm very close with my mum. We get along so well and to think she wasn't interested is very strange. She obviously was but for some reason my brain couldn't get that.

This week is going to be better, I shall make sure of it.

Adios amigos!xo

P.s. If you didn't read my last post click HERE and you'll be able to catch up.

Giving myself a lil break

Hey guys,

I have to start by apologising for last weeks post. I ended up not revisiting it and just forgetting about it. Honestly it was quite nice to (kinda) have a week off. I think I might actually allow myself to miss a week every now and then. It’ll probably help my content too.

Anyways, I hope you are all doing well.

I haven’t really got much to say this week - what a shocker.

However this week I did actually treat myself to some new makeup. By ‘new’ I mean just replacing products I had ran out of. Luckily Hannah had kindly given me a boots gift card which covered most of it. I only had to pay like £1.50 so thank you Hannah.

I repurchased my foundation, concealer, highlighter, and false lashes. However there was a deal on revlon, but one get one half price so I decided to also treat myself to a nail polish. I normally only get Barry m nail polish because they’re cheap and cheerful, but I’ve got to say, I kind of like this revlon one too. I probably wouldn’t pay full price for it (I think something like £6.99) but with the deal, I think I did well.

I think I may even treat myself to some new clothes. Maybe shoes I’m not too sure which but we’ll soon see, I’m sure.

I’m not quite sure what else to include in this post, maybe I’ll actually put effort into next weeks and think of an ACTUAL topic, who knows.

Hectic Sunday's - UPDATED TOMORROW

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well, and having a lovely chilled Sunday.

I can't say I did if I'm honest.

I will update this post in the morning so stay tuned. 

Monthly Goals #7.

Hey guys,

- If you want to read #6, click HERE - 

I wish I could say that I actually managed to meet last months goal. I haven't done any baking or even been shopping for ingredients, so as you can tell... it went really well.

 If you have been readying my monthly goals posts, you'll know I actually set this as a previous goal and failed at that one too. I don't know why I can't seem to get the motivation to bake anymore.


As for this months goal, It's a bit ambitious but honestly I can't think of anything else to work towards.

I might try and get my Psoriasis down a little. Back in March, I did a post just to basically update how it was and where it is now (feel free to read that here). But since then it has flared up again, which I think is just down to the heat lately.

But as the sun is out, I should really take advantage of it. My mum bought some sun loungers too so I shall definitely be out on them as sunbathing does help calm it down. So maybe that along with applying cream will bring it back down to somewhat 'normal'. I guess we shall soon see.
Although knowing my luck, this will be the end of the nice weather and it'll just rain now for the rest of the year.

Wish me luck.
Adios amigos!xo

Take Me Away.

Hey guys,


I hope you are all well.

I'm going to be honest with you. I am starting to feel like there's no point in these posts. It saddens me because I have kept it up for a good few years now and I don't want to let go. I know I just need to try harder, and come up with better ideas but it is getting increasingly difficult. I guess we'll soon see.

I think I am desperate for a holiday. Anywhere. I'm sick of feeling stuck. It comes and goes, as you know if you actually follow my blog. I can normally snap out of it. Even my working hours have gone down which is nice for my social life but the money is shit. Can't even afford a holiday even if i wanted to.

What I would do to be away doing fuck all on the beach drinking anything alcoholic with my boyfriend. I'd love to stay in a villa in Greece where the walls are white brick or whatever with a pool outside. Kind of like Mamma Mia I suppose. Not have to think about work and what I'm earning, not having to have responsibilities just for a little while.


I keep seeing people my age buying nice new cars, and as happy as I am for them to be able to do that, it just makes me realise that I can't and probably wont be able to for a few years. To be fair I'm not in any desperate need for a new car, mine still gets me from A to B but it'd be nice.


I hope you all have a nice week. I'm going to leave this post here because I feel nothing else is really relevant. Hopefully I will have put more effort in next week.

Adios amigos!xo

What I'm listening to.

Hey guys,

I hope you all had a lovely day. I don't know why I am still so awkward starting these posts. It just doesn't feel right to say anything else at the start. Still, hope it's been a good one.

Once again I was stuck for a topic this week, although to be fair, I have been quite good lately at having an idea ready. Anyways, I will be doing one of my trusty 'What I've been listening to' lists. Mainly because I'm tired and PMSing so I just want to sleep - I'm not even sorry.

Because of exercising more I have another new playlist, because why not eh? So I shall also include some of these.

4 Minutes - Justin Timberlake, Madonna
Mercy - Duffy
Candyman - Christina Aguilera
The Sweet Escape - Gwen Stefani, Akon
A Horse With No Name - America
Holy Diver - Dio
All Of The Lights - Kanye West
Rains In L.A. - Scouting For Girls
When The Wild Wnd Blows - Iron Maiden
Angel - Judas Priest
Turbo Lover - Judas Priest
Shotgun - George Ezra
Again - Noah Cyrus, XXXTENTACION
Big Iron - Marty Robbins
Teenage Dirtbag - Wheatus
Howlin' For You - The Black Keys
This Is How We Do It - Montell Jordan
Back To You - Selena Gomez
Youngblood - 5 Seconds Of Summer
Purgatory - Iron Maiden

There's also a song on Dodie's channel where she covers Havanna with an acapella group called Flashback and it's just beautiful. Definitely worth a listen.

Adios amigos!xo

One Big Achievement.

Hey guys,


I hope you are all had a fantastic week and are doing well as usual.

For the past month I have been challenging myself to exercise more using an app I found and to also watch what I am eating on the daily.

I weighed myself after two work outs so basically when I started.

Two Wednesdays ago I weighed myself again, expecting to have actually gained weight, but to find out that I had lost 8lbs. Woo. I can't even explain how excited I was when I saw the numbers. Which isn't at all a health way to look at it all because of becoming obsessed and all that. But still the encouragement was very much needed.

Last Wednesday I weighed myself again because obviously it was only 6 more pounds to lose before I had lost a whole stone and bloody guess what?!  I had only gone and done it! Honestly I am so chuffed with myself. But I hope that I don't just stop now, because I have reached a 'milestone'.

So far I have kept up with it but I am beginning to eat more crap again. Mainly KFC if I'm being completely honest. But I don't snack anymore which used to be such a bad habit for me. So I am pretty proud of myself for that.

I know I shall never be the best of the best, I've accepted that, then again there is no such thing as it's all subjective. However, I want to be the best version of myself and I feel everyone should strive for that.


So here's to achieving the best that I can.

Adios amigos!xo

Monthly Goals #6

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well. I always say this but if I'm honest, it helps me get the ball rolling. I never know how to start these, despite writing blog posts for over three years.

ANYWAYS, I can't actually believe this is already number six for my monthly goals. Seems like yesterday I just came up with the idea and yet here we are doing the sixth one. Crazy!

If you didn't read number five you can catch up HERE.

My goal for the month was to read more and I think I did pretty well. I sat outside in the sun and read a few times meaning I am a god few chapters in now. However I will say, I haven't read as much as I had hoped. Mainly because I am quite a busy woman these days so I just haven't even thought to pick it up.

However, the few chapters I have read have been very good. I think almost relatable too. Basically it's about a woman who is lonely, doing the same routine every week. And where I am in the book, she has started to take an interest in a man, so she is changing up her weekly routine. I have also learned she has a few issues with family, and not so many friends.

You can tell I haven got that far with it but I do very much plan on finishing it soon.


As for this months goal, I may go back to baking. I tried to do this a few months back but I just didn't feel like it. The only problem is, I'm sort of watching what I am eating so I'm just going to be baking cakes and giving them away. But hey ho, I don't mind too much.

I plan on making a lemon drizzle, which is mine and my mum's favorite. And I'll make my friend Hannah some banana muffins because she always asks for some, bless her. I might even push myself and try a new recipe. I always do the same things and stick with the same recipes. If I am feeling brave, I shall branch out.


I'll be sure to do a post on one of them, if any turn out aesthetically pleasing.

Adios amigos!xo

I’m pretty proud

Hey guys,

I hope you are all doing well as usual. If not, then may I suggest you grab your favourite beverage and have a little brrak from everything. Okay? Good.

Anyways, this past week has been quite the challenge as my mum has been decorating again. Although this time, she let me pick the colour scheme and I think I chose well - not to blow my own trumpet.

Basically I wanted a pale pink on the bottom, with white at the top and a very pale grey carpet. With the exception of the extra parts like the hand rail to also be pale grey.

A while back when she was ‘preparing’ to redecorate, I picked up a few of the colour tabs from the paint section in B&Q. I have no idea if that’s what they’re called but that’s what I’m going to call them. A favourite was one called ‘Darling’ I liked that one under all the different light settings and it also proved pretty popular with everyone else too. My mum ended up getting that one and even though it has dried darker it still looks pretty. It’s not exactly what I wanted but these things don’t go to plan anyway.

My mum chose the grey gloss without me, if I was there I would’ve looked at a lighter one but the one she bought isn’t bad either. It’s definitely grown on me this past few days.

I was able to chose the carpet and that was the hardest decision. With the lovely smell of new carpet putting me off, it was indeed a challenge. However I ended up picking a darker carpet. Despite wanting a lighter one I knew that the darker one would match better, plus my mum also took a liking to that one too.

All in all I think my mum and I chose very well. She has also done a great job of actually painting everything, it looks very homely.

Last time the colours were orange and brown and I hated it. It didn’t look cosy,  calming or welcoming so I was happy to see those colours go. I am very happy with it now and I’m glad I went with those colours.

Maybe I shall even use this colour scheme for a makeup look soon. Just to be sad and celebrate haha.

Adios amigos!xo

Fate

Hey guys,

Hope you’ve all been feeling well and I’d like to start off by apologising for the quality of these blogs recently. I’ve been really busy and I hope you all understand!

This blog is going to have a pretty corny yet interesting topic that has been smouldering with me recently, it’s actually about causality. If you aren’t aware, causality is the belief that everything has a reason behind it in life. Hence it has underlying themes of ‘fate’ or whatever. If this doesn’t interest you don’t worry, it goes far deeper.

Recently I’ve had quite a lot of good strokes of luck. Almost to the point it seems like I don’t deserve half of it. Alas, before that I had strokes of bad luck and so forth. The bad things have almost always faded away and evaporated into opportunities for good things to arise into my life. It almost seems as though life has stacked so many odds against me just to see them disappear.

Personally I’m not a religious person by any means, however it seems SOMETIMES life is governed by a force (almost, sorry if this sounds far-fetched) that controls just how much negativity and positivity one can receive in a while. However who knows, maybe it’s a psychological effect. Maybe I’m stupid. Maybe there’s nothing going on and it’s all coincidental. I can just say things are finally playing in my favour! But now I’m worried when things will go downhill again. Hopefully not in the near future, that’s for sure.

Adios amigos!xo

Catch Up!

Hey guys,

So this weeks post is going to be more of a catch up, mainly because I have no clue (as always) and it’s already 12:18pm. If you didn’t catch last weeks post you can read it HERE.

I finally watched deadpool. I know, late to the party - I KNOW. I don’t know why I put it off so much but I’m glad that I finally watched it. It made me laugh out loud several times which I do love in a film. All I can say is, I’m 100% excited for the second one now which I do plan on seeing.

This past week has been amazing. Mainly because of a certain someone. And they know who they are. They’re honestly amazing and I don’t know what I’d do without them now if I’m honest. It’s been a crazy week but I’ve loved it.

Also because of the lovely weather the UK had for like three days, I started this months goals. I sat outside with my new book and I just chilled out. I was the only one st home and I had cleaned the kitchen and put some washing on so I definitely felt like I deserved to appreciate the sun shine. I’m not normally one for sitting in the sun but I actually really enjoyed it.

I honest have already ran out of things to say. But I think I’m going to town tomorrow (/today technically) so I may update this with a few purchases that I get. I’m actually in the look for a new nail polish, not that, that’s exciting at all but still. Maybe you like the colour I get, WHO KNOWS.

Adios amigos!xo

Monthly Goals #5

Hey guys,

I have to apologise before I start this post because I was all settled in bed before I actually realised it was in fact Sunday. So this may turn out a bit rushed.

If you want to read my last Monthly Goals post, click HERE.

For that post I actually said that I was going to bake more and was actually planning on baking the next day. But yet, I failed to do that too. But in all fairness I have been none stop practicing my Ukulele so I changed that to be my goal. You can also catch up on why I bought it ect HERE.

Basically now I know 'Stand by Me' by Ben E. King, and a little bit of the friends theme song. I also learned Riptide by Vance Joy but I still need to practise that one as I can't remember that off by heart.

But to say I've only really had it a few weeks, I'm incredibly proud of myself. I wouldn't say it's a hard instrument to be fair, it's pretty simple and easy to pick up. Still very proud though.


As for this weeks goal, I have planned in advance. I bought a new book (I know, crazy) which I am really excited about so I figured this months goal I would read more. And in the next one of these posts I will leave my thoughts and feelings on it whether I finish it or not.

I found that when I read 'The Girl On The Train' last year I actually got into a routine. I would come up to bed at nine and read for an hour and a half and then go to sleep. I think it actually helped my sleeping pattern too because going to sleep early, meant I woke up early. So maybe this will be a good thing to try again. So, good luck to me!

Have a good week,
Adios amigos!xo

April Favourites

Hey guys,

So I was actually planning on doing May's monthly goals post this week but it's obviously not May yet so I guess you'll have to have a favorites post. I think nearly (if not all) of these are from April anyway, if not we shall just pretend, OK?

First things first (I'm the realist - LMAO), I have to mention a few makeup bits. The first being the Urban Decay All Nighter setting spray. Gosh this has saved me so much time. Because I work evenings, if I want to go out afterwards, like on a Saturday, I have to do my makeup before I go to work and then just 'touch up' when I get back. It used to take me an hour or so just to make my makeup look flawless again, now it just takes me about half an hour, so now I have more time to panic on what to wear. It is honestly a lifesaver, I cant believe it took me so long to buy it.

I have also treated myself to a few new lipstick mainly because they had a sale but also because well, I deserve it. Obviously they're the Jeffree Star Velour Liquid Lipsticks because I just get on so well with them. I shall leave pictures below with the shade names.


I have also bought a new jumper/cardigan and I am obsessed. It is the comfiest I've ever owned. Kind of Grandma like but I love it. I will obviously leave a photo of this too, but I had to mention it.


I am still also loving friends, re-watching it of course. Also really enjoyed 'The end of the f*cking world'. 100% would recommend watching it. The soundtrack is also amazing. It fits all of the scenes so well. I'm actually obsessed with one of the songs called 'Setting the woods on fire' by Hank Williams. In the series they are just dancing around with the song on in the background. Definitely lifts my spirits up. 

I think I will definitely add more to this to the morning because my spelling is going out of the window. I cannot spell to save my life as it is and now I'm tired, I'm really struggling if I'm honest. I will also add the photos tomorrow because my snapchat is acting up a little.

Adios amigos!xo

(Until tomorrow)

Changes

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well.

We've had a little bit of sun lately and I'm not sure how I feel about it. At work, everyone seems so happy and chilled, like there isn't anything wrong with the world. But I am already tired of boob sweat and no sleep at night.

I much prefer the cold whether. Thunderstorms, hailstone, snow, rain - makes me quite happy. But I do also love BBQ's with family and friends, and how it seems there's more hours in the day - either to be productive or relax.

I think it's about time I do a little 'spring' cleaning though. Like properly sort through all the shit I seem to keep. Maybe re-jig my room around, and donate old clothes. Things like that. I always dread doing these though even though you ALWAYS feel so much better afterwards. So hopefully I can at least start to tackle this tomorrow.


I've also been thinking a lot about change recently. It's mainly just because I'm due to bleed soon so I am questioning all my life choices and want to change for the better.

I thought about booking a trip somewhere. On my own. I doubt that'd going to happen because I like to be comfortable with the places I go (like many people) but I do want to push myself this year.

I also thought about maybe cycling to work. I am no where near fit enough, for this so that's probably one I'll never do too. Plus, I am always shattered after my shift so I would regret it anyways. It's just a thought for future me though.


I've also thought about dying my hair soon. I've thought about this for a good few years now and I just want to bite the bullet and go for it. Last time I went to my hairdressers, I had a little more length off than normal and I actually loved it more than I thought. So maybe this time I'll push myself further.

There are others but I plan on using those in my Monthly Goals posts. Which I think may actually be next weeks post. So until then.

Adios amigos!xo
(P.s. I'm sorry this post is a little all over, I had no idea what to write about at first lol. It wouldn't be my blog if it didn't have shit content though would it???)

I bought a Ukulele!

Hey guys,

I hope you're all well as always. If you didn't catch last weeks post I shall link it HERE as it is something I very much give a damn about.

This weeks post is much more upbeat so, you're welcome haha.

As you can tell, five days ago I may have ordered a yellow ukulele. It came the next day because yes, I was that excited I paid an extra £3 to get it sooner.

You may be asking why? Why a ukulele? Why now? Can you even play the ukulele???

Basically, this year with my blog I have been setting goals every month. I learned basic knitting and was quite pleased with myself. This has definitely helped me want to push myself more. I wanted to make myself more interesting, people ask 'What do you do for fun?' 'have any talents?' quite a lot and I don't really have a good answer.

No one that I know (I think) plays the ukulele so I figured it would be something different than say a guitar or keyboard.

Can I even play? Now I can...kinda. I know simple chords, some progressions and how to tune it but to say I've only had it four days makes me proud. I'm still very much a noob with it all. But I have been practicing none stop, I even think I'm getting a little blister on my thumb from strumming because silly me didn't think I'd need a pick. I think I definitely need to invest in one soon.

I am surprised my mum isn't annoyed by the sound of it yet, she hears it often enough. Today, she even asked me to sit with her and practice. If I were her, I would have probably ripped my own ears off by now. She's very supportive and I'm very grateful for that.

I don't really know what else to include in this post. I think that once I get a little better, I might (but probably not) include a video of me playing in the future. Just so you can see how far I've come from not having any experience. We shall see.

Please don't hug me. Shake my hand.

Hey guys,

So this week I just want to get something off my chest. It's not a big deal but it does affect me a little. So here it goes.

As a women, I'm normally expected to greet people with a kiss or a hug. You see it in films quite a lot (normally the posh women give two kisses on the cheeks).

Now hugs, I don't mind so much. I mean to me, I don't really hug people I don't know. I know some people don't necessarily like others in their 'space', and I guess I qualify. It's just when it's strangers.

Once I was out in the village with some friends and we were leaving a pub. At this particular pub most stand at the entrance to smoke, mainly regulars anyway. And one of my friends knew a guy stood outside with a few others. She proceeded to say goodbye to this man and kissed him on his cheek. Fair enough, if shes happy to that's completely fine but then he leaned in to me as if I was going to kiss his cheek too and I just looked at him confused and disgusted and then at her for reassurance. She did confirm that she knew him, and its 'fine' to kiss goodbye. I just said 'No, sorry I just don't kiss people I don't know.' That was that and I went home.

But the fact that people are conditioned to think this is what every woman wants to do when she says goodbye. Maybe a handshake or yes, even the hug is better to me.


I also want to touch on another subject (pun not intended). At work, we obviously get regulars and get acquainted with a fair few. I remember their names and give a welcoming smile. A lot of times the customers will shake hands with my co-workers (who are ALL male, is that relevant? maybe), but I just get a 'Cya love' with a wave. Only once has a customer shaken my hand as well as my co-workers. I actually quite like him, he's polite and actually shows an interest in me as well as the others. Him and his dad will stand at the till with me and chat while they wait, and I do like it.
It's rare that I get a handshake and I appreciate it a lot when it happens. But it should't be rare. I should be looked at the same.

The fact that only one out of the many customers we get bothers me. I don't think this is as big of an issue such as the pay gap but it matters to me, personally. I'm just as professional as my co-workers and I think that should be recognised more. I feel like this could be relatable for a lot of people.

It's just something to think about.

Monthly Goals #4 & Dodie!

Hey guys,

This post is more of an update of whats been happening lately but if you would like to read last weeks post on #MarchForOurLives click HERE.

First of all, happy Easter! I hope you've all had a lovely Sunday, whether you celebrate this or not. Personally I do so I have had a significant amount of chocolate, not that, that's anything new.

On Thursday, Hannah and I traveled all the way to Manchester to see the lovely Dodie perform live. Thankfully Hannah volunteered to drive so I was in charge of music and entertainment obviously. But I am very proud of her for getting us there and back in one piece, not that at any point did I doubt her, but I know I would've found it extremely stressful.


The first acts were really good too! I know one act were called Skinny Living and I really liked them, I've looked on their spotify and I hope they bring out more music.

As for Dodie, she was perfect. She played all of my favorite songs so I was more than happy.
She's such an incredible human and I feel like she should be protected at all costs.

I will leave a few videos here if it works for me, and some photos will be added however they're not very good. We were stood up on a balcony but behind some people so it was difficult to see her and film at the same time. But I 100% loved the whole experience, even doing my makeup in the car which was surprisingly easy - except the brows.

Now if you follow my blog you know that I have been setting goals each month. Last month I managed to learn to knit and I was very impressed with myself. Then I challenged myself to do some art and have some 'final piece to share with you at the end of the month. I'm sad to say that I've pretty much failed this month. Mainly because I'm either busy or when I have the time, I'm just not motivated or have any inspiration. I did do some little doodles which I might include but I also might not. Hahah.

As for this months goal, I will still try and get some inspiration for art, as four weeks isn't a lot of time. But the main goal will be to bake more. I love baking (and the outcome) and always list it as a hobby of mine yet, I can't remember the last time I made something. So this month I will make some cakes that are my favorites and maybe try new recipes, see how they turn out.
Tomorrow I am going to bake a lemon drizzle cake so this should set me out for a good month. I will be sure to take photos every time I make as most of my posts lack some colour.

Adios amigos!xo


Edit: It wont let me add any photos or videos to my post (I think my internet is playing up) so I will add them tomorrow. I know I add this to a lot of my posts but I really mean it, I like to look back on posts like these, so check back tomorrow!

#MarchForOurLives

Hey guys,


Before I get into this, here is a link to my previous post which was '5 Ways to treat yourself while on a budget', so go have a read if you haven't already.

Now, I am 'probably' addicted to social media. Just like most of my peers. We have grown up with the evolution of technology. I am grateful that I did have a childhood where everything was still chill, but I am also thankful for having my phone and all of my devices today.

I do obviously check all my social media daily and throughout the day. I often take a look at the discover page on Twitter because I think it's nice to have an idea whats going on in the world.

When I saw the news about the Parkland shooting, I couldn't even imagine going through that. I couldn't imagine how the teachers, students - children were feeling. But this obviously wasn't the first school shooting in america. In fact I have done some research and found out that there has already been 17 school shootings this year in America. (Source link here, also not sure how accurate this is) Hell, it's only March! All of these lives lost so far this year, imagine what the total would be at the end of 2018?

It breaks my heart.

But we are the generation of change. 

I think after the parkland shooting, maybe more people realised the problem. People are talking about it, standing up for what they believe in. Personally, I don't see a need for any gun. A gun is made for one thing and that is killing. Whether it's an animal or human, I don't think they're necessary.

After The Dunblane school massacre in the UK 1996, *two new Firearms Acts were passed, which outlawed private ownership of most handguns in Great Britain.' Maybe the same could happen for America? (*Quote from Wikipedia)

Obviously I have been trying to keep up with all of the news surrounding this tragedy and yesterday people were marching for change. I saw that Martin Luther King Jr's granddaughter Yolanda Renee King gave a speech. She says "My grandfather had a dream that his four little children would not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream that enough is enough...This should be a gun free world, period.''
She then encouraged the huge crowed to chant 'Spread the word, have you heard, all across the nation, we, are going to be a great generation.' (See here.)

She was magnificent. I think it will be spoken about for years to come. I 100% agree with her and the crowd also seemed to. It will definitely go down in history, this whole movement.

There was another young teen who spoke. I only saw a small clip of this on twitter but she says how her brother died on school grounds with a gun. You could tell her heart hurt. And I cried. It's not fair. People shouldn't die in such circumstances, especially so young.

Emma Gonzalez, also gave a powerful speech. She even held a moment of silence. I was crying by the end of this clip too. You can tell she is going to fight for change no matter what. She's a fighter and I fully support her. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz6YarZ5upEfootage: here)

Personally, going to school in the UK all I worried about was if my friends would show up if they were poorly. I couldn't imagine being afraid for my life while trying to learn. You kids in America are strong and brave as hell.

Like I said, we are the generation of change. And I truly think those that marched for #MarchForOurLives made a massive impact. So here's to change.

5 Ways to treat yourself while on a budget

Hey guys,


Before I begin, be sure to check out my last post HERE. It's basically just an update on my Psoriasis so it wont appeal to everyone. But still, got to get that self promo in there anyways.

This weeks post is a pretty chill one (what a shocker), but I was talking to my mum about budgeting. Now that I have a job and have paid all the adulty car shit, I can now take a little break from saving.

Now, obviously I don't plan on going out and wasting money. Which got me thinking, back when I had a tight budget - if any - I still managed to treat myself and feel good about myself. So I am going to list a few ways a treated myself for you guys who may be a little tight on money, looking for a job or those who just don't want to to full on 'splurge' on everything.

1. I'll start with a pretty obvious one, you can buy face masks from Superdrug and Morrison's (ect) for I think 99p each. Depending on your budget you could buy one for a family member or friends and have a little pampering session. Maybe even get the nail polish out, why not.

2. This could also go with number one but have a nice relaxing bath. Maybe get a lush bath bomb, or if this is a little pricey get some cheaper bath stuff like bath salts, bubble bath, rubber duck - again why not. Personally we only have a shower so I cant enjoy this one, if you're the same put on some of your favorite music and shake that lil booty. 

3. This again is a simple one but at Home Bargains you can buy little sachets of popcorn and cute plastic popcorn box like old school ones in films. I think you can get like three for a pound or something, so why not have a home cinema day. Make your rooms as dark as possible get some films lined up, drinks (maybe alcoholic if you're of age) and your popcorn and you're well away. I think this is one of the best ways to relax. Who doesn't love a good movie day??

4. If you don't necessarily have a tight budget, you could go out and buy a new item of clothing. Something that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Then on a day you need a pick me up, wear it and feel like a boss. Or why not buy some new Pj's!? I always feel like I have my shit together when I have new Pj's on.

5. Do whatever makes you happy. So whether that is art, running, gaming, or maybe even cleaning just treat yourself without feeling guilty! If it happens to be shopping, which is what mine is, you can still do this but make sure you stay within your budget. If it makes you feel better just save more the next week.

Okay, now I honestly cannot think of anymore. But I may do a part 2 and try and come up with a few more for a future post. So keep an eye out for that folks.

Psoriasis - an update.

Hey guys,

Firstly, I want to say happy mother's day to mama Jane. She's the most incredible woman I know. Obviously most people think this of their own mum (or dads who also step up to be mums) but I truly think I'm the luckiest. I tell her I love her every time I leave the room, and several times before hanging up the phone. Not because it's a habit or because I think it's what I should say, but because I mean it. If something were to suddenly happen to me, I'd want her to know how much she means to me and how much I value her. I could honestly go on and on, but I'd rather tell her in person so I shall cut it short.

Anyway, my last Psoriasis update was back in September, so I figured this would be a good time to give a little update.
You can read said post HERE.

Nothing has really changed, thank god. Just minor things.

In my previous post I mentioned that the parts in my ears don't bother me as much, however it does quite a bit now. I created a mindset where basically I think others would rather see a raw patch of skin bleeding, than dry extra skin. This is most likely not even correct but at the minute that's how I'm thinking. So every morning (or most) I pick out the parts in my ear so no one sees the dry skin. It normally 'heals' by the next morning if not the following morning. But during the day it is so unbelievably sore. I don't know why I do it to myself, but I do.

Don't get me wrong, all of it is sore once I pick it, obviously, because it's just raw skin. But this does irritate me a lot.

Recently though, I have noticed that when I am anxious or upset I will turn my arms raw. It has reached the point where I had to apply a plaster (literally) the other day because it wouldn't stop bleeding. Then at work everyone was asking what I had done. It's nice to know people care, but at the same time its such an awkward thing to explain ALL the time.

So now I have asked my mum to help me keep applying this cream we bought for my arms religiously and to then bandage them up. This helps keep the cream work for longer I guess but also stops me from picking at it. I have only done this today and it has made a remarkable difference so I can't wait to see the results in a few days time.

I'm only doing this at home though because I don't want people to think I'm exaggerating or begging for people to ask about it, because believe me, I'd just rather ignore it like everyone else. But unfortunately, I can't if I want it clearing up - even just a little.


I'm going to finally include a photo with this post. I wish I had one from before when it looked normal. Like I said, it already looks heaps better but  hey, maybe it'll look even better than this in a few weeks. Here's to hoping!

 

I added the second one to just feel confident and empowered. Because, well...why shouldn't I? Double chins but I like these anyway:).

Monthly Goals #3

Hey guys,


I know in my last post I said about having a break and kind of 're-starting' this, but I just cant bring myself to miss a week. It's one thing I have been able to keep consistent in my life - not to be dramatic but its true haha. However, I have been thinking of some ideas and trying to figure out how to make this more interesting for everyone. So, here's to the future!

Anyways, I've been quite happy with this sort of post, I think it is nice to set a goal and review it at the end of the month.

I can become unmotivated quite easily. For example, I haven't done any art since leaving college. Which makes me very sad because I do enjoy it. Once I have an idea, I am well away - its just getting that initial push I need. At college we had topics and had to basically make art inspired by that topic. Well, now that I have left, I have no one giving me ideas or topics. Which bring me to this months goal.

I want to get back into art. I want to fall back in love with it. At college I got some discouragement which sometimes put me off going for bigger and harder outcomes. I can do what I want, how I want now. After all, that is one of the reasons for me leaving prematurely.

So this month, I'd like to make my own brief, and work towards it. Making maybe, 5 outcomes and showing you them next month. 5 maybe a little ambitious, but hey, why not set a challenge?


Now if you read my 'Monthly Goals #2' post, you will know that I set myself the target of learning how to knit. And I am now the Knitting Master. Obviously I'm joking but I have significantly improved. Thank you to my mum for helping me.

I started off small and worked my way up. And today I managed to knit a well sized square without any mistakes. GO ME. It's honestly beautiful. It's not stressful anymore either, I literally sat down with some background music on, knitting for a good hour, maybe two hours long. I wasn't consumed by my phone, or worrying about anything. Just focusing on this one little thing I set myself and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm definitely going to carry this on and learn some more stitches and techniques.

Overall I am very proud of my little self, and I'm glad I set this as my goal. And hopefully, this time next month I'll have some artwork I'm proud of to show you.

Adios amigos!xo

Thinking & Planning.

Hey guys,

So I have been quite chilled today. I had the day off work so I spent the day cleaning and sorting my room. You know, the good ol' spring clean. Well trying anyway, I still have a lot to do haha.

Anyway, it's nice to have a day to actually relax. I mean, I do have the daytime to relax on days I work but it's not the same. So when I have a day off like today I like to spend it wisely. And I'm not sure staying up late to write posts is smart. I think I'm going to have to start actually planning more. I have been writing more ideas down so I at least have an idea but I think it'd be good to have them more ready.

I almost think of this like a chore now and I don't want to. So I need to get my at together. Really make this something I enjoy doing again.

I want more inspiring posts, more make up and maybe even review posts. But I would want to really put in the effort and make it something I'm proud to post.

So hopefully I'll get on this, I'm not sure when but soon.

2018 might be the year I actually (make an effort to) get my shit together. But also maybe not.


Who knows.
Adios amigos!xo

Catch up

Hey guys,

So at the end of last weeks post I mentioned maybe doing a valentines makeup look. (If you haven't read it yet click HERE) And that's not what this post is about. Haha.

But this week was definitely exciting.

I did a very adult thing and sorted my cars MOT out. It actually passed but needed a new clutch, so I had to wait a few days - obviously. And I must say, I missed it so much. I never understood how people got attached to cars but I get it now.

I also went to see Black Panther. My god it was amazing. There are so many aspects that are so great, for starters there is a whole group of badass female warriors to protect him. I mean, is that not such a big step?? It was lovely to see more strong females in a film. Plus the company was great too:).

Here's the look I decided on. The PJ's not included. Honestly I was really pleased with it. I hadn't done eyeliner in a while because I'm running out and I am trying to save money, but it only took one try! It was a miracle really.  

Okay, this whole post has been a shambles and I'll tell you why. I am re-watching friends and I just keep getting distracted. Also doesn't help that its half one in the morning. So I am going to 100% revisit this tomorrow and try and salvage some of it. Alright? Alright.

5 random facts about me,

Hey guys,


Guess what? This post was kind of planned...although not at all. I had this idea but didn't think of any facts so here I am struggling because I don't seem to know anything about myself. Therefore this post may be a little short but I don't mind.


Some random things you may not know about me:

1. I'm quite an anti social person. However I get lonely. It's very much a constant battle with myself but I like to think I'm getting better with people. Since working I can talk to strangers easily without worrying too much.

2. I wear odd socks so much that when i wear an actual pair, I feel like I have my shit together.

3. Flowers are stunning. I think a simple bunch of flowers can light up any room.

4. I have thought about shaving my head. Like for charity, because I can never be bothered to wash or dry or style my hair. However I don't think I will ever have the confidence for that considering that my Psoriasis covers my scalp. Which sucks.

5. I have watched all the episodes of Friends except the last one because I cant bring myself to finish it.


I was actually hoping to do a Valentines makeup look however I just haven't had the time or inspiration for that. Maybe next weeks post, even though it wont really be relevant I may still do it. I'm a little rebel aren't I?

Adios amigos!xo

Monthly Goals #2.

Hey guys,

Finally it is is February, it's about time I know. I am slightly sad, it means we are closer to summer and I am very much a winter baby. but anyways, enough with that.

If you haven't read my previous post (#1) click HERE and you will be up to speed.

So last month I wanted to share something that I love with someone.The plan was to treat my sister to some ice cream from this lovely shop in town. However she is a very busy lady so we haven't had chance yet. Although I did sort through all of my clothes and gave the ones that I didn't wear to her so maybe that counts? I still want to treat my sister so hopefully in a few weeks this shall be done.

As for this month, I have been thinking about it and I want to try and learn how to knit. I used to know when I was younger but I had trouble holding the needles in my hands. So I want to try again, who knows maybe it'll turn into a hobby. I'd really love to make a blanket, something I can make and then use myself - or someone else could use it!

I want to learn new things this year and I think this is a good place to start.


A nice short post for you guys this week. Well, this is more for my benefit hence why I don't even feel guilty for making this so short. I still hope you liked this post, if you didn't, try again next week :).

Adios amigos!xo

My top 10 movies!

Hey guys,

I hope you all have had a good week. This post probably wont be a long one, but it is actually one i had planned to post - kinda. I'm trying to get my shit together, but it's me. This is probably the most organised I will get. By hey ho, I'm not mad at myself.

Okay, so as you can tell from the title of the post, I will give you a list of some of my favorite films. Although I have probably missed some so maybe just my 'go to films'.

If you've had a hard week or just feel like you want to treat yourself and relax, grab some snacks, beverages and cosy blankets and watch one of these. They wont be for everyone, obviously but i just thought I'd throw this little list out there.

1. Calamity Jane. One of the best musicals by far.
2. Baby driver
3.Tangled
4. Love, Rosie
5. Mamma Mia
6. The Age Of Adaline
7. The Notebook
8. The Hunger Games (All of them)
9. Not Another Happy Ending
10. Moana

I think that shall be my list. I may have to change it once I finally go see The Greatest Showman. I really wanted to go see it and I hear everyone raving about it so hopefully soon. The list will obviously change over time but I do watch these quite regular so always a fave.

Anyways that's pretty much it for this week. I think next weeks post is the 'Goal for the month' thing i want to do through the year so there's something to look forward to... or not haha.

Have a kick-ass week.
Adios amigos!xo

Sunshine Blogger award!

Hey guys,

I hope you've all had a great week.

Again, this is not a post I planned however I am really relieved as I still hadn't done any other preparation for the other posts.

As you can probably tell from the title, I have been nominated for the Sunshine blogger award by the lovely lady Lia over at 'That Girl With That Blog'. If you don’t know, it's given to ‘bloggers who provide inspiration through positivity and creativity in the blogging community’ - I have quoted Lia as it explains it perfectly.
Anyways, thank you so much Lia, it makes me truly happy that you think I achieve to spread positivity around with my blog.

The rules for the Sunshine Award:
1.Thank blogger(s) who nominated you in the blog post and link back to their blog.
2.Answer 11 questions the blogger asked you.
3.Nominate 11 new blogs to receive the award and write them 11 new questions.
4. List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post and/or on your blog.

So lets get cracking with the Q's.

1. If you could only ever visit one other country ever again, where would it be and why?
This is quite a tough question. Id like to think I'd go to spain, because of the memories it has with family. However I do really want to go to America before I die. So maybe America, I can always make new memories.

2.What are you passionate about?
I have thought about this for a while now and I think I am going to say Make up. I am never uninspired when it comes to creating a look on my face. I love trying bold colours and being expressive. I like to sit and apply makeup for about three hours. I can do it in say, an hour but i like to truly take my time. It's calming - my kind of meditation if you will.

3.If you could invite 5 people (dead or alive) to a dinner party who would it be?
My grandad, Shane Dawson, Dodie, My uncle, and I have to include Olly Murs obviously.

4. Do you prefer dogs or cats?
Easily cats. I do love dogs too but I think cats are just ahead.

5. What are your favorite things about blogging?
I'd have to say the fact that this is my little space. I can say what I'm feeling, express myself and discuss my opinions without judgement or hate and I really love that.

6. If you could have any skill, what would it be?
I'm either going to say, to be able to learn and understand languages easily or to be a neat person. I'm not a neat person. It's never really bothered me much but now I'm an adult, I kinda wish I had my shit together sometimes.

7. What was your first job?
Helping at a pizza place. Which I am still doing but I enjoy it so why leave?

8. If you could tell one person anything, what would it be?
I'm not 100% sure. I feel like there's a lot of pressure on this question. Either that or I am reading this wrong. If it was someone who I knew was a good person I'd tell them what a good job they're doing. I think anyone would appreciate that.

9. What is one thing you want to achieve?
I'd like to have travelled by myself. I feel like you can learn a lot from this experience and I know that it'd be something I could always be proud of.

10. What is your favourite quality about yourself?
I'd say the fact that I have manners. I think it can make such an impression on people. Manners don't cost a thing but can go a long way.

11.What is one film you could watch over and over again?
There are so many but the first that comes to mind is Calamity Jane. Bloody love that movie.


My nominations for this award are:
1. Gemma: http://www.dorkface.co.uk/
2. Naomi: http://disasterdavis.co.uk
3.Elisabeth: http://www.everythingandnothin.com/
4. Rossy: https://ayrgalaxy.wordpress.com/
5. Bryony: https://www.bryonybaker.com/
6. Jess: https://foundationsandfairytales.wordpress.com/

A collection of some of my favourite photos - #1

Hey guys,

This week, Lia (over at That Girl With That Blog) nominated me for the sunshine blogger award. So I want to say thank you Lia. And that post shall come next week. I want to make sure I take the time and effort for that post so I plan on writing it tomorrow while I'm free. I was hoping to write it today but I ended up getting rid off some of my clothes and sorting through my wardrobe a little bit. Next week I promise!

For this weeks post I thought I would share some memories with no explanation just the photos. They probably wont mean anything to any of you but I have a lot of photos and I'd love to be able to look back on my favourites. I do print them but still. I regularly go through all my posts just to see how much I have grown as a person. So It'd be nice to add this one in there.


Here we go I suppose.

There will be a part two, as I have had to go through so many folders of photos that I will have missed loads. So maybe next month there will be the rest. Maybe it'll be three parts because these are photos on my laptop, not even my phone haha.

Adios amigos!xo
