Down Yellow Brick Lane (And Westminster)

After a long, relatively bad week, I finally pulled through. I'm not going to go into too much detail about how the beginning of 2019 is going currently. However, I am trying to stay positive and the only way I think I am able to do that is by living in the moment; living for the good days and, while remembering that past experiences are important no matter the outlook, moving on from the bad days. I found this quote online recently which says: "The word 'happiness' would lose its meaning  if it were not balanced by sadness" - Carl G. Jung - With this in mind, I can safely say that I enjoyed this last weekend that I spent with one of my closest friends (AKA: Wise Young Owl) despite previous events because I have not let the negative taint the positive. This weekend, Wise Young Owl, traveled for two hours just to stay in London with me and it was so fun! Here are a few of the things we did: Brick Lane (Shoreditch, London) In Brick Lane, we spent so...

10 (Extremely Random) Things About Me

I am not really sure what this blog is yet, it is probably just going to be a random lot of nonsense and if you like that sort of thing then welcome to my humble abode! So before I throw a whole lot of "me" stuff at you all, I thought I would introduce you to a handful of random facts about me. 1) My birthday is on the 25th of January. 2) I own two elderly, five year old guinea pigs. 3) I also own a 38 litre tank full of goldfish but my first ever goldfish was when I was about five years old and my brother claims we named it Sploshy - I think it was called Splash though but considering my bad memory, I would say he's right! (I went into far too much detail there, sorry) 4) I am a fake brunette (without letting on my natural hair colour, haha). 5) My favourite colour is purple. 6) I come from England but before you get excited (TBH I don't know why you would) I come from the land of TOWIE. 7) I am a fraternal twin. 8) I am a major arachnophobic. 9) M...

Moving Into 2019 - My Playlist

Image
Happy New Year! It is the first of January and I am ready (as ready as I can be) to make 2019 as good a year as 2018 was for me. We will see how that fares as we go through the rest of year but at least my intentions are good! Here is my music playlist for 2019... 1. Growing Pains - Alessia Cara (BRAVVO Remix) Looking back on 2018, it was a year for growing up (well, as someone who has stayed 5"0 feet since Year 7, I've definitely grown UP, I am really meaning maturity!) I have matured a lot over this past year, from finally working out my own personal tastes to facing some pretty adult decisions and situations. 2. 18 - Five Seconds Of Summer This month I will be turning eighteen - a milestone that I have mixed emotions about TBH! This song was more of a fun way to acknowledge my impending birthday. Plus who doesn't like a little bit of 5SOS? Coming from a biased, die hard fan! 3. Successful - Ariana Grande This year will be the start of my career s...
