Megan Time!

We've come to the end of another month, I can't quite believe it's the end of August and the end of Summer. You know what that means, it's time for a list of everything I've been loving this month. This month has a particular theme but it's what I've been loving. Let's get started Hell's Kitchen I decided to watch Hell's Kitchen this month. I was watching series 21 as it was on ITVX and I know the next two seasons were also on there. I forgot I'd watched series 21 as it had been a while but watching it I remembered I had seen it. Even though I've watched it before I still enjoyed watching it and it's just a comfort show, it's an easy watch and who doesn't love hearing Gordon Ramsay swearing left, right and centre. It's therapeutic in a weird way. Definitely something I enjoyed watching this month. Tenable This is a surprising one for me as I don't always watch quiz shows but recently I've been watching this as it...

In August, I did quite a bit of reading. I've been slacking with my reading and fallen behind on my Goodreads reading challenge which is twenty five books. This month I decided to read again as the first book I read made me realise how much I love reading and got me back in the reading game. I just love how a book can transport you to a different world and let you escape real life. I'm not going to lie, I read a lot of good books this month and I thought I'd share them with you now. With Love From The Morisaki Bookshop by Satoshi Yagisawa This book is a duology which is at Days At The Morisaki Bookshop and More Days At The Morisaki Bookshop. I picked this book up a while ago when I was browsing Waterstones for a new book and this one caught my eye. It’s such a pretty cover that I had to get it. I’d also heard of this book from somewhere and I thought why not. It follows the life of Takako who finds herself moving into her Uncle Satoru’s bookshop after a heartbreak. It sees ...

Summer is a time where the weather's warming and it can be a struggle to keep motivated to be productive, especially when the sun's out and all you want to do is be outside. I've been struggling with motivation as I'm trying to keep posting when I can and next month I'm planning on posting everyday for you all. It's a struggle to find motivation but I thought I'd help by sharing some of my tips to help you keep motivated in August.  Let's get started. 1. Keeping your space tidy I don't know about you but I cannot stand it when I'm trying to be productive and my surroundings are cluttered or messy. Before I do any kind of work or writing, I need to clear my space so I will have a quick tidy up, put clutter away and just make sure my working space is clear. Tidying is also doing something productive so technically you're being extra productive by tidying. I also find after tidying up that I always want to do something productive. For example, I...

I thought I’d share a photo journal of a day in my life but it’s a little bit different as I was travelling to Manchester on this day. Let’s get started: My day starts like any other, just waking up in my bed. The first thing I always do is make myself coffee because I can't function in the mornings without it. I decided to have a shower because I like to freshen up before travelling anywhere.  After I use VO5 Heat Protectant on my hair before drying my hair with my Tresemme hairdryer.  While I’m getting ready I decided to watch one of my favourite movies which is The Intern. To me it’s such a comfort movie and always brings me joy when I watch it. I just love it. I did my makeup after I dried my hair and decided to go wild and go for a blue eyeshadow. Sometimes I love trying different colours for my eyeshadow because we all need a little colour in our lives. I then make sure I have everything in my suitcase and also pack my makeup bag in it. Finally once I’m ready, it’s time ...

Time for the eighth month of the year and the height of summer. Yet I still have to work. Although unexpectedly I have a couple of trips lined up. Today as you're reading this I'm currently heading up to Manchester for a weekend away to visit my brother but also to do some shopping as pay day was yesterday. I'm also excited to go to Primark which is one of my favourite shops and it's a treat to go there when I can. Especially in Manchester because I'm so familiar with the layout, I know exactly where I am. The following weekend I'm actually going down to Bristol to visit my dad's family who I haven't seen in a couple of months plus I get to enjoy a bit of time off work which is always the best feeling.  Recently it feels like I've been living out of a suitcase or an overnight bag because last weekend I had two sleepovers, one at my best friend's house and the other at a man's house who I've been seeing for a while now. I'm not going t...
