We all have songs that we can't help but listen to as they bring us so much joy or we can relate to them so much. I thought I'd share my top five favourite songs at the moment that I honestly can't help but listen to every time on my playlist. All You Wanna Do - Six The Musical Honestly, I relate so much to this song so much because it reminds me of pretty much all my exes. In the beginning of my dating journey I was a little naive shall we say where I thought everyone was in it to actually date a person. I then learned after a while that a lot of people were in it for just a bit of fun which kind of sucks and this song is essentially about that where Catherine Howard slowly realising the men's true intentions with and it's actually quite a sad song because you can feel her pain the further into the song we get. Honestly I've been there and I've now learned I'm never letting any man treat me as just a bit of fun. This is a power ballad for anyone that ha...

Do you ever feel like your thirties are slowly creeping up on you? Because I do. I turned twenty seven this year and it kind of hit me that in three years time I'll be thirty which is something I cannot even get my head around. It also kind of feels like I need to get my life together because your twenties is the time to experiment and try new things but also what the heck am I supposed to be doing with my life?  To be fair, I've been in three jobs in my twenties which is kind of exciting and I'm currently in a job that I'm really enjoying at the moment which I could potentially see myself progressing. However, I'm currently still living at home with my mum which kind of makes me feel like I'm somewhat behind. Especially when you are surrounded by people the same age as you living in their homes, some have mortgages, some are married and some have babies. All of those things I'm literally nowhere near at this point in my life. Yet I feel like I need to do so...

Can you believe Christmas is one week? Cause I can't! I have no idea where any of the time has gone. It feels like December has just flown by where I don't even know what day it is anymore and all of a sudden I realised that next Sunday, it's Christmas day. Even crazier is the following Sunday, we'll be saying hello to 2023. I feel like when you work in retail over the Christmas holidays, days just warp into one another as you tackle Christmas shoppers and long shifts. I literally feel like these past couple of days I've had no time to myself, hence why my Blogmas has been slacking as honestly I haven't been able to manage my time between work, eating and sleeping. Let alone have time to chill or write a blog post. Does anyone else, when they have an early morning shift at work, go to sleep as soon as they get home or is that just me? I feel like all I do is work, eat, sleep and repeat. Especially this time of year. It's just an endless cycle. That's why...

I do wonder this from time to time if I'll ever find love. I've never been in love or ever been in an official relationship. It's very confusing because I've experienced several of my firsts. First kiss. First time. I've only ever dated two guys in three years. However, they never were official. I've mentioned that my first experience with a guy ended up me being the other woman which was heart breaking for me because I wanted things to go to the next level but obviously they didn't because he tells me he doesn't want a relationship and then I found out via Facebook that he had a girlfriend for four years. It hurt because it wasn't really serious so it shouldn't have bothered me as much as it did, but it does bother you. Especially when someone tells you that they don't want a relationship with you it makes you wonder why not? This other guy was also nothing serious and had only seen him twice then lockdown happened which meant I couldn't...

Have you ever been known as the shy one or the quiet one? Because same. I was the girl in school that never raised her hand, class presentations were the end of the world and group work was scary. Of course if you were my friend at the time, you may see the opposite side to me. I like to talk and have a laugh but in class, I wouldn't dare talk or draw attention to myself. The only exception was PE (Physical Education). Which may come as a surprise as I'm fully aware a lot of people hated PE in school. For me though, my confidence grew and I didn't care who noticed, I was like a fireball and always took part. Even when I forgot my PE kit. For two years I had this amazing PE teacher who was honestly the best. I was in the bottom set of PE (as I wasn't very active) and yet I didn't let that hold me back. Some of my best memories of school were in PE. I was just a hyperactive teenager that couldn't be stopped and had a lot of confidence. Whether it was netball...

I start each morning just like everyone else starts their morning by waking up and having a great view of my ceiling. We're living in a strange time where we have to stay at home and on this particular day, I had no real plans. Although I can't help but appreciate how tidy my bedroom looked this morning after tidying it the night before. Of course no morning is good for me until I get my morning coffee to enjoy by my bedside. Yes I did get up from bed just to make some coffee to then get back into bed. I decided to have a lazy day. Also my mum had just come back from a night shift on this morning so I needed to keep quiet anyway so that I didn't disturb her. So a lazy day is understandable.  I managed to get up to grab my laptop from my desk because no lazy day is complete without a laptop. The first thing I did was catch up on Eastenders because I hadn't watch the latest episode yet so that was one way to kill some time. After catching up on...

I was just on my laptop in my pyjamas at 12pm last Sunday when I suddenly just stared at my ceiling and figured I needed to do something with my life. That's when I thought I'd force myself to be productive by actually making this little blog post about my lazy Sunday with the use of photos. So here is a picture of my slippers and as you can see I'm still wearing pyjamas. The first thing I do is go to the bathroom. Here is my sink. Exciting stuff right here. I need to brush my teeth because of good hygiene. Plus it would be gross if I didn't. Next I wash my face with my facial because I still had some makeup on my face from yesterday and I want to take care of my skin. Time to put on some comfy clothes because I'm not leaving the house today but feel the need to put on something other than my pyjamas. Coffee! Gotta have my coffee! This is my second mug of the day but I don't care. Let's go crazy and have another one. Now...

Okay is just a word and yet it has so many different meanings. Okay was a big thing back in 2014 with the Fault In Our Stars and it was a good thing. It made people happy. Sometimes when okay is spelt differently then it has more meanings. Like when someone just writes K then that means you don't care or you're annoyed about something to the point you have to write just one letter. That's understandable. I try to avoid writing K at all costs because I know K means bad. Now, something new to the picture is "It's okay not to be okay." That's a phrase most likely you will find on many people's social media pages. As if the phrase is helping. Well, I'm going to be honest that phrase is not helping. Are we encouraging people who are not okay that it's completely fine and normal. I mean it is a normal thing but what if there is more to it than that. Shouldn't you realise that what they're trying to tell you is that they are not okay...

It's that day again where all the couples around the world celebrate Valentine's Day while us singletons are left not feeling the love. Last year I went into a rant about my problem with Valentine's Day which I will leave a link below for you guys to check out. Basically I have a problem with Valentine's day because it is all about people in a relationship but they never actually talk about us singletons who don't have anyone to share Valentine's Day with. I mean it must be nice if you have a partner or friends to enjoy the day with but it's almost like they don't want us singletons to enjoy the day of love. I feel like Valentine's day should encourage some self love because there are a lot of single people out there and there might be a whole list of reasons why they are not in a relationship. This being my 23rd year of being single on Valentine's Day, I am kind of used to it just being another day in the calendar. Most of the time I wil...

Hey everyone! Thought I'd make a blog post today as it has been over a week since my last post. The truth is I'm not entirely sure what to blog about because life has been pretty boring at the moment. The amount of times I've started writing a post then deleting it after a few sentences because I feel it's not good enough is probably not a very good blogger. I think after blogging everyday in April, I've kind of got blogger's block where I have no idea what to post about really. It happens though and maybe I should listen to my own advice on my  blogger's block blog post . At least I'm writing this now and you're currently reading a blog post by me. A blog post is still a blog post at the end of the day. It doesn't matter how long or the content. It's a blog post. I think that the majority of my time is spent in work so sometimes I have to prioritise my work life over my free time. Also after work, I tend to spend my free time...

This day is kind of special for me as on this day five years ago I created my first blog post. It doesn't feel like it has been five years and yet here we are. I started this little blog back in 2014 thinking it'll be something fun to do. I like to think I've improved since then but I know I make the odd mistake here and there from time to time. One thing I didn't think would ever happen is my blog would be viewed over 24,000 times. That's a lot of people. I also find it interesting when I look at my audience stats and see that people are viewing my blog not just from the UK but from the USA, Russia, Germany, France, Ukraine and so many more places. That is a little crazy to me that people from all over the world are taking a moment to view my blog. It means a lot to me because I do love to blog and a part of me wishes this was a full time job but unfortunately it's not. However, I do try my best to post regularly but if you've been reading my blo...

I didn't really know what to call this post so I just went with graduate blues because it's kind of the topic I want to talk about today. Being a graduate. I feel like I'm not living the graduate life to the full potential. You always here the graduate success stories of people who go onto high paying jobs which are related to their degree and have an amazing life. Then there's the rest of us. Who have no idea what we're doing with our lives. I'm currently working in a part time job which does pay well and I'm saving a lot money by living at home with my mum which is great. However, I feel like I'm not actually using my degree for anything at the moment because my job has nothing to do with my degree. It kind of makes me wish I made more use out of my university's career guidance. I did have plans to hopefully get a job this year involving my degree and move out. However, that seems less and less likely. I've grown to learn there's n...

You may have noticed my lack in blog post yesterday. That's because I've been busy working. It's a sad part about being an adult and finishing education. Your job becomes a huge part of your life. You're either wearing a work uniform or pyjamas. It's rare when I actually put on normal clothes. Most of the time I'm working and usually after work, if was a long shift then I'd either take a nap or eat some food. I barely want to do anything after work or even before work. Then on my days off I try and do things but most of the time I'm tired because I've been working five days in a row and all I want to do is sleep. I feel guilty when I waste my days off by being lazy because soon my day off goes by in a flash and it's back to work. It's a struggle and that's why I'm late posting sometimes because I've been working and barely have any motivation to write a blog post. Luckily I only missed a day. Although I nearly didn't ...

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.

I'm somebody that can easily get into things and have the motivation to keep doing it for a while. This is things like reading all the time or blogging. Then suddenly one day I'll just stop doing it then a few weeks or even months go by and I haven't done it in a while. You've probably noticed this by my very random blog schedule. One moment I'm posting all the time and the next I disappear for a few months. I never mean to do this because honestly when I do get back into blogging. I absolutely love it. Being able to write my thoughts and give out my own advice on my own little part of the internet feels amazing. Just knowing somewhere out there, someone is reading my blog post and listening to what I have to say. It feels good. I don't know if it's the case because I just go by the views of my blog post. Yet I looked at my audience stats recently and I found out that people are viewing my blog all the way from the USA, Russia, Germany, France and loads o...

This post will contain no spoilers. Yes, I am doing another book review for you guys. I know I did one yesterday but I read this one after Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and read it within a day. Plus I really wanted to share with you guys my thoughts and feelings of this book. Here we go. The other day I read a book which I wanted to read because I watched the film for the first time recently and I found out there was a book. The book is called Love Rosie by Cecelia Ahern (also known as Where Rainbow Ends). As I had watched the film I had expectations of what was going to happen, however the book is slightly different to the film. Where different things happens to the film so some things I was not expecting. Anyway, this is written through different letters and emails from different characters as well as the two main characters Rosie and Alex. They have been best friends all their lives but they both have more than just friends feelings for one another but life gets in the wa...

Hey guys! The other day I had a little throwback when I was on YouTube and I randomly decided to look up High School Musical songs. I still remember the words to most of the song as some of them are actually quite good. (Though I'll never understand or know how somebody came up the lyrics to Humuhumunukunukuapua'a), but there were two songs that stood out the most and I couldn't stop listening to them. They were Bet On It and Scream. I just related to these songs as I've had a lot of stress from exams, teachers and people. So listening to these two songs just made me better because I related to them. So I recommend you listen to them now because you may feel the same and get a little throwback. Fun fact: Apparently, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a is a reef, rectangular, or wedge tail trigger fish. Looks like this: **I do not own any of the videos or pictures in this blog post.

Hey guys! We all have some things that drive us insane and I do too. So here's a list of all my pet peeves. This is mostly from things at school that has caused me to be negative about these sorts of things and I thought I'd share them with you. 1. People who walk slowly - This happens so much when I'm school. It's like every time the bell goes for a lesson and I'm trying not to be late to it, I will end up behind the slowest people. Every. Single. Time. It's so annoying. I really really hate it. Especially when there's no way around them. 2. People who stop in the middle of a crowded corridor - Are people so stupid that they don't realize there is a massive queue behind them when they just stop. I always end up crashing into them and it really p***es me off. It's even more annoying when they turn around to go back and you crash into them. How can you not realize there is somebody behind you. This happens to many times in school. 3. People wh...
