15 Things Nobody Knows About Me

Image
For today's post, I thought I'd share fifteen things nobody knows about me. To be fair some things, my close family and friends know but not everything. I thought this would be a fun way to get to know me, kind of post especially if you've recently come across my blog and want to get to know me a little bit more.  Let's get started. 1. I'm a Libra  2. My favourite food is noodles 3. I've never watched Star Wars (and I don't think I ever will) 4. I've passed my driving test, but I don't have a car 5. I don't like wine. I've never found it appealing. Rum is always my go to alcoholic beverage. 6. I love listening to old school music, musicals and film soundtracks. It's rare that I listen to current songs. 7. When I was sixteen, I broke my humerus bone by walking backwards with my baby brother and falling down with my arm landing on the baby safety gate. Don't ask how or why. My brother was fine but my humerus needed a pin in it and it to...

Why Do I Not Share Photos Of Me?

Image
Something you may have noticed on this blog is that I don't share any photos of myself in any of the posts. Of course I do have photos of me on this blog on the sidebar and two of the pages, but I never share any of me in the post.  I think the reason is the beauty of blogging is I don't have to make myself look presentable and camera ready. Like right now I'm writing this post in my pyjamas with my hair in a messy bun because I couldn't be bothered to brush it. Yet you don't see that (because why would you want to see that for starters) but that's what so great about blogging is it's the words that matter. Of course photos matter as a blog post looks way more interesting if there's more photos but I don't feel the need to have to share photos of myself. I'm definitely not picture perfect and if I wanted to share myself to the world, I'd make a YouTube channel. That's why I love blogging so much because there's no pressure to look goo...

25 Questions

Image
I thought I'd recreate my first post by answering 25 questions. After almost six years since my first post, I figured my answers will be different so here is the 25 questions tag. I have no idea who made this tag but I am sure you can find out online and this is just a bit of fun after all. 1. Do you have any pets? I've never had a pet of my own. My dad did have a dog who sadly passed away last year. 2. Name three things that are physically close to you. My wireless keyboard that I am currently typing on, my mug of coffee and my laptop. 3. What's the weather like right now? It's currently a beautiful sunny day. 4. Do you drive and if so have you ever crashed? I don't drive but I was involved in a small crash when I was younger and luckily nobody got hurt. Just the front of our car was badly damaged. 5. What time did you wake up this morning? Half past eight. 6. When was the last time you showered? Yesterday morning. 7. What was the last movie y...

My Pet Peeves

Image
I did this a couple of years ago where I talk about my pet peeves which are basically things that grind my gears and annoy me so much. We all have pet peeves and I thought I'd share my pet peeves with you guys because I thought why not. I've got some new pet peeves but if you want to see my other pet peeves then I will leave a link below to my other blog post. Anyway, on with the list of my pet peeves: 1. People who talk down to me I'm a twenty two year old which means I'm not a child. I'm an adult and one thing I hate is when people talk down to me like they think they're better than me. It really annoys me because I'm an adult and I'm free to do what I like as most adults do. I just hate it when entitled people think they're better than everyone else and feel need to talk to people below their standard. I'll admit I'm part of the working class and in no way high class at all but so is the majority. I'd say only the queen is bet...

A to Z

Image
I thought I'd do an list of A to Z of me. Where I list words in alphabetical order which describe me using every letter. I got inspired to do this when I read The Amazing Book Is Not On Fire by Dan Howell and Phil Lester where they did this in their book. I thought it'll be a fun idea and gives you guys a chance to get to know more about me. Let's begin: Awkward Books Clumsy Duh Excited Food Greasy Hair  Hogwarts I don't know Joke Karma Laugh Meh Nah Oops Procrastinate  Quiet Ravenclaw Stress Tired Unusual Video Games Weird Xmas YouTube Zzz... I hoped you enjoyed this really random post about me. Why not do an A to Z about yourself. Let me know how you get on. I'll be back again with tomorrow with another post. See you then.

My Skincare Routine

Image
For ages I used to never have a skincare routine. I never saw the point because I don't have oily or dry skin. I also never had acne. The only problems I had on my face was the odd spot and redness but other than that it was fine. Recently I learned about pores and realised I have bad pores on my face. I also have sensitive skin so I was always worried about putting too much product on my face. I decided to look up skincare products which work for sensitive skin. I then went out and bought some skincare products to use on a daily basis and now I'm going to show you skincare routine. 1. Face wipes I know people say wet wipes are not the best method but they work for me and I've never really had any trouble with them. Plus they're just great for a quick cleanse or to wipe makeup off. I tend to go for the face wipes which are three in one so they basically do three things to your face. This pack is from Savers. I just get the face wipes that cost about a pound becaus...

Things I Don't Regret

Image
We all have things we regret in life. I can list a lot of things that I regret. However, I don't want to think about all the things I regret because what's the point in dwelling on them to make me sad. I thought I'd make this post and share three things that I don't regret. Let's get into them: 1. I don't regret going away to university I feel like I learned a lot while going away at university. I had some amazing experiences while at university. I gained three best friends and I went on some good night outs. I also learned that you can enjoy doing things alone like going to the cinema and the theatre. I also learned how to adult by cooking for myself, laundry and other household things. While at uni I experienced my first kiss and popped  my cherry. Sorry if that's TMI  but it did happen and it was great. Plus now I have a degree to my name so that's pretty amazing. Yeah, I don't regret going to uni one bit. 2. I don't regret not ever ...

50 Facts About Me

Image
As I have been getting a lot more views on my posts recently and I have a feeling some of them are new readers who barely know me I thought I'd do a getting to know me post and do 50 facts about me. I did once do a 15 facts about me post back in 2015 but I'm not going to include those however if you want to know more you can read those extra facts  here . Anyway we have a lot to get through so lets do this. 1. I don't have any tattoos. I have thought about it but the thought of something being so permanent on my body terrifies me. I feel like if I ever got a tattoo that I'll regret it. We'll see though. 2. I've never been in a long term relationship with a guy. Just never found the right one and guys have never really been interested in me. I'm used to it and I'm happy being single so don't throw me a pity party. 3. I can get socially awkward sometimes. I'm just kind of a socially awkward person. I struggle to make conversation so someti...

Why Do I Still Blog?

Image
I made a post back in November asking why do I blog and I pretty much answered the question. I'll leave link to the post below so you can check it out. However, I've started thinking about the question of why do I still blog. I mean I'm not one of those famous bloggers, I don't earn money from this blog and I don't get much attention from it. I mean those could be reasons why I could stop blogging but honestly those reasons don't really matter to me. I just blog because I want to blog. I want to talk about things and I prefer this to actually making a bad quality video on YouTube. Mostly because this is more easier than filming, editing and uploading a video. This is just words typed out onto a laptop. It's very simple. Also I like the fact that I can wear what I like while I type this and not be judged for it. I'm currently in my pajamas with my hair tied up in a messy ponytail, wearing zero makeup and it feels great because I don't have to w...

20 Questions Tag

Image
1. Thing you cannot leave the house without I cannot leave the house without my phone. I depend so much on having my phone because it's my way I' able to contact people or find out what's going on in the world. Most people with a phone will understand. It's always in my hand normally wherever I go which is kind of bad but I always depend on it. 2. Favourite brand of makeup I love W7 makeup because it has cheap good quality make up. It's like a cheaper version of urban decays make up and it's still just as good. If there's one make up brand which I had to buy for the rest of my life it would be W7. 3. Favourite Flowers I love roses but honestly my favourites have to be tulips. Their colours are so pretty and they look so beautiful. 4. Favourite Clothing Stores My favourite clothing stores are Primark, Matalan and Asda George. I always buy clothes from there. 5. Favourite Perfume? Just Pink perfume from Next and Zoella's Blissful Mistful. ...

The 100th Post

Image
Hey guys! So after having this blog for over a year and a half I have now reached my 100th post. I thought I would take an opportunity to thank all the people that read my blog. I know I'm not some big blogger with thousands of readers but I don't really mind about that. I'm not writing posts just for views or comments. I'm just writing it because I like to write and I feel like this improving my writing in some way. I also hope that it's helping some people with some tips or advice about something. Now I know that nobody comments on any of my posts and that's fine with me. I read blog posts and don't comment on them. But I know that people are reading my posts from looking at the views especially after I make an update on Twitter saying I've written a post I can see at least over 10 people have read it.  Anyway, thank you to all of you who have read my blog. Whether your new to this blog or have been reading this blog for a while. Thank...

Here are some facts about me that you probably didn't know. 1. My middle name is Ivy after my great grandmother. 2. When I was younger I used to pretend my teddies and dollies were my children. 3.

Love yourself!

Hey guys! We are all humans on this planet. You are one in 7 billion. We are all beautiful in our own special way. It doesn't matter what your nationality, skin color, sexuality, height, weight, skin problems, hair, eye color, beliefs, religion, likes, dislikes, hobbies and interests are. Because you are you. It's your life. It's all yours. Don't let anyone else bring you down or try to change you. Change if you want to change. Don't follow the crowd. Be original. Do what you want to do. Don't let anyone make you feel uncomfortable or unwanted. Because you are wanted. By family. Friends. Pets. (Think about the ones in the future you'll be having) But don't live in the future and hoping. Live in the now. Because you will have a happy life. You just have to love yourself. Be proud of who you are. Don't care about what other people think. It's your life. Live it the way you want to live it. Don't prete...

My Most Favorite Inspirational Quote

Image
I absolutely love this quote. I even have it in my bedroom because I love it so much. This quote just kinda of reminds me that it's okay to be a little bit weird or strange. Most people that know me think I'm weird or insane or crazy and I do accept that I'm not like most teenagers. I'm not about the drinking, smoking, drugs and what ever else most people think teenagers are like. I'm actually socially awkward. I'm not a big fan of social situations as I always have this constant fear that I'm going to make a fool out myself (as I usually do as I'm really really clumsy) or people are judging me or making fun of me. I get really paranoid which then leads me to get shy as I'm afraid of saying anything in case I say something stupid. Then before you know it everyone thinks I'm just a quiet person. In a way, I'm not really myself. I do have a voice and I do know that my reality/life is way different to most people my age. I...
