Packing For The Weekend

Going away for the whole weekend is always exciting and that’s exactly what I’m doing this weekend as you’re reading this post. The one thing I always struggle with is how much to pack so I thought I’d share my packing process on how to pack for a weekend away.

Let’s get started. 

Organise your clothes
Figure out what you’re going to wear. Are you going to be going out somewhere for a meal? Are you going to be mainly chilling and watching movies? It’s good to be prepared but it’s also good to be realistic. Pack what you know you’ll definitely wear but also it’s good to pack a nice top just in case you do go for a meal and it’s nice to pack something like leggings if you know you will have a chance to relax. Also don’t forget pyjamas and your underwear.

Toiletries
I’m someone that always has a toiletry bag ready to go because sometimes you never know when you need to go somewhere. Also recently as I’ve been going away a lot to visit my special someone, I’m constantly packing an overnight bag so it makes it easier when it’s ready to go. I make sure I have toothbrush, tooth paste and deodorant are the main things because everything else is a bonus. Just keep it very minimal and only take what you know you’ll definitely wear will use everyday.

Bag/suitacse
The inevitable question whether to take a bag or a suitcase. It varies depending on how much you take and how much you can fit in. Honestly it’s entirely up to you because it is whatever you prefer. I’m taking an overnight bag mainly because where I’m staying there’s not much space for a suitcase whereas if I was staying in a hotel for a weekend, I’d take my suitcase. 

Everyday bag
Finally, it’s good to make sure you got your everyday bag sorted with things like your purse, phone, earphones and chargers. Once that’s all packed then honestly you’re good to go.

There we have it, that’s my process for packing for a weekend away. Let me know if you have any packing tips because I always loving hearing about other peoples packing tips.

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog and I’ll be back tomorrow with another post.

See you then.

My Future Plans

Planning for the future is probably one of the most scariest things. Especially when you have an end goal but have no idea how to achieve that goal. Of course many things can go wrong and you're kind of terrified to take that risk. That's how I'm feeling right now. I have the whole Christmas and New Year off which is essentially going to be spent planning what I'm going to do next. I want to move out of my mum's house by February. I want to get a job or an internship which is relevant to my degree. As you can probably tell, these are some major changes for me and I'm terrified but also kind of excited. I'm itching to start planning and I have spent several hours looking at flats to rents these past few months. Soon though it's all going to be real. I know it's going to be scary and I probably have no idea what I'm doing but at the same time, I can't wait for it all to happen. Life is about taking chances after all and sooner or later I...

Here we are, the fifth month of the year and we’re flying through this year already. I’m very excited because at the end of this month I’m on holiday in Majorca with my family. It’s very exciting because I always love going away on holiday. There’s also two bank holidays this month which is even more exciting.  Other than that I don’t really have a lot planned for this month. I’ve got family staying this weekend. I’m hoping to work on my novel this month as I haven’t really had much of a chance recently. It feels like I’ve been so busy with work and I haven’t really had much time for myself. That’s all going to change this month. This month is a new month, new me. I’m feeling positive about this month as I’ve had a few meh months these past couple of months but now it’s onwards and upwards.  Looking forward to it all. Let me know if you have anything exciting for this month. I’d love to hear it. Thank you for taking the time to view my blog and I’ll be back soon with another p...

Things That Make Me Happy

Image
I thought I'd share five things that make me happy because it's good to have things in your life that make you happy and these are mine. Let's get started.  Driving My Own Car I honestly love driving my car. It's a great feeling just being able to get in my car and go anywhere. I love listening to music in my car because when I drive, I'm singing along and it's a great feeling. It's therapeutic. When I first got my car, it made me nervous but as long as you know what you're doing and go at your pace. Plus remain focused then you'll be fine. It gives you so much freedom and independence when you drive and honestly, I don't know what I did before I had my own car.  Playing a video game I don't know why but getting invested in a good video game is something that really makes me happy. Sometimes I love replaying games I know off by heart but it helps me to switch my brain off and focus on something in a while. Recently I've played Tomb Raider...
