  • Moon – May, Myself And I #25

    May 25: Moon There’s been a lot of space talk on this challenge and I love it! In those other posts I may have mentioned that I love space and I do have a particular soft spot for the moon. But instead of fangirling about space and gushing about how pretty the moon is, I Read more

  • Sparkle – May, Myself And I #18

    May 18: Sparkle Sparkle for me is a very girlie thing. Now I know it’s 2019 and that gender isn’t of any importance any more, but sparkle is something that feels very feminine to me. Now you already know how much I love drag queens and anything else camp, so perhaps you’d assume that I’m Read more

  • Luck – May, Myself And I #17

    May 17: Luck I have to say that I feel so full of luck to be where I am today. I’ve been doing a lot of reflecting lately, as it’s almost the halfway point of 2019, and I just feel so proud of myself. If you’ve been to this blog before, then you will know Read more

  • Sunflowers & Storms – May, Myself And I #11 + #12 (Catch Up)

    May 11: Sunflowers I really like sunflowers – they make me so happy. I’m not really someone who’s into flowers but I just think sunflowers are, like, really pretty. What I like about sunflowers is how bright they are and how tall they rise. Sunflowers make me think about summer days spent at my nanna’s Read more

  • Salty – May, Myself And I #7

    May 7: Salty When I first saw today’s word, I was going to write another raving post about how much I love sweets. I was going to talk about how much of a sweet tooth I have over a salty one. But nowadays salty has more meaning than it did when I was growing up. Read more

  • Weight – May, Myself And I #6 (Catch Up)

    May 6: Weight I don’t think it will be a surprise to anyone that I am concerned about my weight. The fact that women are concerned about the way they look is something that we just accept as normal and, dare I say it, even expect. Think about how you, your friends or the media Read more

  • Eggs – May, Myself And I #5

    May 5: Eggs My puppy loves eggs. Before getting a dog I couldn’t even imagine that a sentence like that would even make sense, but it’s true. We were very blessed towards the end of last year and Ceaser came into our lives, despite the fact that my family “would never have a dog” (Dad, literally Read more

  • Red Lips – May, Myself And I #4

    May 4: Red Lips I think it’s pretty apt that I’m writing about red lips on a Saturday night. A long time ago (it makes me feel quite sick to think exactly how long ago it was!) I used to go out out on a Saturday night and I’d always be wearing red lipstick. I Read more

  • When You Don’t Have Anything To Say

    It has been a very long time since I’ve written anything for this blog. I’m kind of going through a thing in my life where writing isn’t what I do in my spare time anymore – it’s my job. Trying to find the balance between your work and your hobbies is something that I never Read more

  • 3 Challenges I’m Setting Myself In 2019 | BECOMING BETTER

    Christmas hasn’t even arrived, yet feels as though everyone is already preparing for the new year. If you’re like me – nerdy, an organisation fanatic and (alright I’ll admit it) a bit of a perfectionist – then this time of year can be so much fun. There’s nothing better than a fresh start and the Read more

  • Twenty Two Lessons In 22 Years | Birthday Reflections

    It’s my birthday tomorrow, so how else would a wannabe blogger celebrate than writing a cliche post? I actually love these kind of posts – I wrote one for my birthday last year and found it to be a great experience. I love this positive yet reflective state I get in around this time of Read more

  • An Open Letter To Ex Friends | Self Growth

    First of all let me say, that if we split in a bad way then I’m no longer mad. I understand that at the time neither of us were in a position where our actions were as mature or as thought out as they could have been. And for that I do have some regret. Read more

  • Why I’m Not Making Any Resolutions This Year | 2018

    Every new year I get caught up in the excitement and hype of a fresh start. I vow to myself that this year will be different and I will become a totally new person. I set a list of new years resolutions that I hope will get me to that place and head on forwards Read more

  • Small Things To Do For Yourself This Christmas | Festive Thoughts #5

    I know it’s so cliche, but allow me this one – can you believe that Christmas is basically here now? I certainly can’t! Where is this month (read: year) going man. Anyway, I was so pleasantly surprised with the response to my ‘pep talk’ post. It seems like so many of us are going through Read more

  • Lessons Learnt From 2017 | Festive Thoughts #1

    This past year has been a mad one, don’t you think? I know how cliche it is to say this but it has honestly gone so fast – I don’t think I can even process the fact that 2017 is soon to be over! To be totally honest with you, this year has been full Read more
