Megan Time!

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...

On Monday I'm going on a caravan holiday at Haven Holiday Park in South Wales. I'm so excited because I haven't been on a caravan holiday for several years now. It's exciting and different to a regular holiday but I just find it so cool. It's a home away from home where you're self catering but you have all the amenities at your fingertips plus a fully fledged kitchen and bathroom, living room and bedrooms. It's great. I thought I would share some packing tips and what I plan to take as I'm going away for five days. I'm hoping this post is useful to any of you going on a caravan holiday or if you're just going on holiday and are struggling with the packing, this might be helpful to you. Let's get started.  1. Plan outfits The one thing I've always struggled with when it comes to packing is clothes because I used to be the person that would pack things just in case. Another thing I'd do is throw random tops or trousers in my suitcase a...

I'm going on holiday to Majorca on Wednesday which I'm so excited about as I always love going on holiday. I'm a weirdo that even gets excited when I go to the airport. It's just that whole excitement before you travel. I thought I'd share some travel tips that have really helped me to make my whole travelling and holiday experience as relaxing as possible. Let's get started. 1. Organise all your travel documents I'm not just talking about making sure you've printed off your boarding pass. I'm talking about checking your passport. Is it in date? There's always new travel rules so do your research before you travel. Make sure you have your insurance sorted. Find out if you need visas. Make sure you keep your travel documents in one place in either an organiser or a little folder.  2. Make a packing list This is something that has always helped when travelling is making a list of everything I need and I'm talking about everything. This way when...

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...

Now that I finally got my car, I want to do a bit more travelling. I would love to explore different parts of the UK. I felt quite inspired the other day after watching Mamma Mia Here We Go. I like how Donna just went off on her own and did her own thing. She didn't have a plan, she just knew where she wanted to go and figured it out when she got there. She even found love and ended up making a whole life for herself.  One day, I would love to take a trip on my own. Go abroad somewhere. A dream I do have, it might be a silly dream but it's my dream. I would love to take a trip to Paris. It's a city I've always wanted to visit. I would love to go on the Eurostar and stay in a hotel. Then as cheesy as it sounds, I'd want to do all the tourist things. Go up the Eiffel Tower and see attractions like Notre Dame, Arc De Triomphe, the Louvre. Even go on a bus tour around the city. I feel like Paris is one of those cities you could travel and explore on your own. It's d...

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 ...

I feel like it's been a while since I picked up my laptop and made a post. November just feels like it only began yesterday but already it's the 20th November and this is my second post in November. It's definitely been a chilled out month but I know I've got a busy few weeks coming up. I'm actually travelling down south tomorrow to visit family which I'm excited about as I haven't seen them in so long. Then the travelling doesn't stop because I'm going away the weekend after to Liverpool and Manchester which I'm excited about. I'm also looking forward to visiting the Christmas markets and getting in the festive mood. I've already completed my Christmas shopping which is nice. I feel like I've gotten some really good gifts this year and actually put a lot of thought into them which is a nice feeling. I'm definitely going to have a Christmas movie marathon and go all out with hot chocolate, festive treats and lots of good movies. I...

On Friday, I decided to book a solo trip to Telford. I just felt like getting away for the night on my own and I've been meaning to get away for a while. Telford I thought was an easy choice cause I don't have to change trains and it has a shopping centre so I knew I had a lot to do when I was there. Everything was going smoothly in the beginning when I left my house as I was on time for the train and thought I would make it in plenty of time to Telford. This is when I see the train is delayed which is never a good start. It was so delayed that it didn't even have a time of when it was arriving. It just said delayed. Not a great start but I was thinking eventually it will come right. Well, on the board it got cancelled and the next one was not for another hour and a half. Many of my fellow passengers decided to leave and wait for the next one but I decided to stay because I was thinking maybe they'll offer a replacement bus or something. Luckily I did because half an ho...
