What's In My Bag?

Image
I thought I'd share what's in my bag so let's get started. This is my bag, I've had it for a few years now. It's a galaxy mini backpack with plenty of pockets. It's got two side pockets, a zipped pocket on the front and a secret zipped pocket at the back. It also has a zipped pocket inside as well as a few compartments. It's always a go-to bag for me as it's perfect for travelling and everyday use. I've never had any issues with it. Now for the contents of the bag. The newest addition to my bag is my car keys. Never thought this day would happen but here we are. I've obviously got my car and house keys on it but I also have a security alarm, whistle and bottle opener. I also have a duck key chain that I got at an arcade that I love. I like to keep my keys simple but also keep me safe.  I have my iPhone 11 which I can't go anywhere without. It's something I use on a daily basis and I've had this phone for a few years now. I'm consi...

April

Image
It's April Fool's Day so be wary of everything you see online today as it may not be true. This month though I've decided to create a blog post everyday for the month of April. I know that may sound like an April Fool's joke but honestly I've created 30 posts that I'm very excited to share with you this month so be sure to check back on this blog everyday for a new post.  Aside from blogging everyday, I don't really have much planned for this month. I'm thinking of planning a little road trip in my car. I'm not sure where yet but I just want to spend more time getting used to driving and taking my car on longer journeys. Eventually I want to drive on the motorway and build my confidence with that. Nothing else much planned for this month but I'm going on holiday next month with the family so I'm going to start planning what to take on holiday and don't worry I'll have a couple of travel related posts for you to read this month as the ...

March Favourites

Image
The end of another month and March has honestly flown by. I feel like after February the months just fly by so quickly that you blink and you're at the end of another month. Of course this means it's time to share with you what I've been loving this month so let's get started.  Black Mirror I was introduced to Black Mirror two years ago where an ex boyfriend showed it to me. We ended up watching 'White Bear' and 'Shut Up and Dance' which I believe are two well known episodes. They're actually similar in a sense where you feel sorry for the main character of the episode, unsure what is going on then a twist happens that changes your entire perspective. Black Mirror is a fascinating show, I haven't seen every single episode but I've seen quite a few now. It's an interesting concept because every episode is different so you don't even feel you have to watch the show in order of episode. You can start at any episode you want to. It's ...

Taking Time For Yourself

Image
Your twenties can sometimes be lonely at times but it's important to make the most out of this by taking time for yourself. I saw a quote about Mr Bean on Instagram about the importance of enjoying your own company instead of expecting other people to make you happy. As many who know Mr Bean, he's a man that does a lot of things on his own and doesn't care what others think. He dines alone at a restaurant, goes to an amusement park, stays in a hotel and even ends up going on holiday by himself. Although if you've seen Mr Bean's Holiday you know he doesn't end up alone for long but still, he never expected to make friends while on holiday. It just happened. That's why it's important not to dwell on loneliness because you never really know what can happen. If you spend time enjoying your company then everything will soon fall into place and maybe along the way you meet friends or even a potential partner. The most important thing is to be happy and content...

Catch Up

Can't believe we're in the fourteenth day of March and my last post was on the first of March. A lot has happened this month already though.  The biggest news of all is I finally have a car. It's been a long time since I passed my driving test back in August 2023. Over a year now of not driving but when I test drove the car last Friday, it all came back to me. It's a Ford Fiesta 2023 Trend in this ocean blue colour. I honestly love it so much. I've been driving around it and so far it's gone well. I'm slowly getting familiar with it and stalled once at a roundabout. It's just about building my confidence again behind the wheel. I've yet to drive it by myself but I may take a chance and drive myself to work. That will be interesting.  In other news, I'm still working on my novel. I'm currently doing a bit of research on social media influencers because my main character in the book is a social media influencer. I've learned that doing the ...

March

The third month of the year is finally here as the way it goes with January feeling like it will never end to February flying by in a flash. I do like when March comes around because for me it's the start of Spring. The days feel longer when the clocks go forward and the evenings are getting lighter again. I do enjoy the weather also because it's not quite hot but it's not cold either. It's just right in a way. It reminds me of the weather in Autumn. I think Spring has to be my second favourite season after Autumn.  I don't have much planned for this month although recently I've been going out for long walks and doing a lot of writing which I'm hoping to continue as the weather gets nicer. I do hope this month will be a productive month for me in terms of my writing as well as my blog. I do have a few posts planned for this month which I'm very excited to share with you. I might do a photo a day in March and share my photos in a photo journal at the end ...

February Favourites

Image
The end of the shortest month of the year which means it's time for a favourite post. Here is everything I've been loving in the month of February. Cheaters This is a BBC comedy that tells the story of two people that end up sleeping with each other while in Finland only when they get home realise they are neighbours. Even more shocking, one is married and one is in an eleven year relationship. The episodes are around ten minutes long and series two came out last year. This is a very raunchy series with scenes of a sexual nature so definitely not for adult viewing. It's a fun series that deals with the morality of cheating and why people end up cheating. Obviously cheating is not an answer for any relationship complications but this series definitely makes you understand why someone may cheat on their partner. It's a relatable series and has a nice use of representation in it. Definitely a series you can binge watch as the episodes are quite short which makes it easy to...
