I’m a boring person.



 Well well well. Look who it is. 

Yep, it’s me. I have no idea what made me want to write a blog post again but here we are! 


As I was desperately trying to get to sleep last night ready for work, I couldn’t stop thinking how much of a boring person I actually can be. And I don’t mean in a derogatory way either in a way I’m happy with it. 

The past couple of weeks at work have been pretty brutal. We’ve had two members of staff off who normally do the opens and that’s left us with only two who can cover those shifts. So it’s fair to say, Jacob and I are pretty ready for it to be over. I’ve also done a couple of split shifts to cover someone else. And even though I was incredibly tired and achy, it felt good? Not in a I’m going to do this everyweek way, but it just felt productive.


I also don’t have many hobbies. Which I am trying to work on. Typically You’ll find me either at work, or in bed. I’m pretty happy all cosy in bed watching tik toks. Granted sometimes I have a couple games on ps4 but unless I’m online with friends my attention for it doesn’t last too long. I suppose shopping is something I enjoy doing, though I’m trying to cut that down now I have a new car to pay for! 

Now that probably sounds okay, but it gets a little repetitive. So recently, like I said before, I’m trying to get a few new hobbies. Or even just something to give my mind a bit of space from a screen. 

I’ve read ‘It Ends With Us’ by Colleen Hoover. Which I really enjoyed. Definitely an easy read and ideal for someone wanting a little stepping stone back to reading. I’ve just started ‘Ugly Love’ and I’m excited to see more of her work. ‘A Slow Burning Fire’ by Paula Hawkins is also one Ive started though this is more of a thriller and definitely needs more attention when reading so it may take me a while to get though. Good so far though! She also wrote ‘The Girl On The Train’ that I LOVED a few years ago. 


Another thing I’ve been doing is colouring. I found a cheap book in Home Bargains for 79p and some felt pens probably £1.99 or so, nothing fancy. But the book is detailed enough for you to sit at least for an hour a time but also not super detailed that it’s frustrating and tedious. I saw a Tik Tok of a woman painting as if she was a child again, big brush, bold paints, nothing in lines ect and it looked pretty fun. As a kid I always tried all the time to keep paintings and colouring in the lines and I’d end up stressed. It’s nice to go back to that sort of thing more relaxed and just enjoy what you should’ve done years ago. - I highly recommend. 

I may have also bought some air drying clay a few months ago. Fair to say I had one go and never touched it again. I’m not sure what paints I’m supposed to use for this type of clay, so any recommendations please let me know! Though I do want to give it another go and make little ghosts ready for Halloween, I think that would be cute.

That’s about all really. I don’t really ‘go out’ that much. Since being on new medication, alcohol hits me like a ton of bricks! And while it’s nice and cheap, the following day is absolute hell. Safe to say I keep it to a minimum. I’ve been going to the local a couple of times with my sister and friends from work which is nice. But that’s about as far as it goes. And I’m typically okay with that! 

Okay, that’s all I really have to say. Please bear with me while I get my ‘mojo’ back. It’s been a while and I must say, very strange to be doing this again after so long! 

Speak soon xo

It's a crazy world.

Hey there,

I hope you are all doing well.

We're all living through quite a crazy time and honestly I'm just writing this to distract myself or should I say 'vent'. I'm going mad here. I hate being cooped up, not that I usually go out a lot but I like having the choice. Sometimes a trip to town or such like makes me feel accomplished for the day - no idea why, I think it's mainly the drive I like.
It is really hard not seeing my boyfriend too. When I'm stressed or on edge, his hugs help. I know it sounds daft but they do. I immediately feel the weight off my shoulders and my heart stops racing. I could really do with one right about now. As I'm sure many of you are also feeling, but we can do it.

I am still working however, so that's still a bit of normality for me. Which I know a lot of you have had taken away from you. Although I do keep finding myself wishing my workplace was closed. I really don't want to put my mum at risk. My hours seem to have decreased a little again anyway so I'm not there a lot, I suppose it could be much worse.

I'm not copping as well as I'd hoped. I'm constantly stressed or anxious. This has obviously caused my Psoriasis to flare up, BAD. Recently it's been hard to lay down in bed because its so sore. I've just avoided going to bed until around 4/5 am. (I like to pass the time by crying - not necessarily about my skin.)

This is a very lonely time for a lot of people, I was hoping that because of how I write these blogs its almost like we're having a chat. Maybe??

I don't really know what else to include in this post, I feel like maybe just a catch up will do for the time being. I couldn't really just jump back in. But if any of you want to comment any posts you like of mine, maybe the music ones or recommendations for something, let me know! Even if you just drop me a message, I'd appreciate it. I have a few ideas but nothing new.


Speak soon. xo

I miss you x

Hey guys,

It’s been a while huh?

Honestly I’ve thought about starting up my blog again for a while, I’ve just ‘never had the time’. But I have missed it. A lot has happened.

I’ve missed having my little place to rant and talk lots of nonsense. And it’d be nice to have that back in the new year.

I can’t believe I haven’t posted for all of 2019. But I suppose it could be for the best, I lost all the inspiration for the posts and my heart wasn’t in it any more. They began to mean less to me and it just felt wrong.

But now! I’m so ready. I think I have decided to take this into the new year and I can’t wait to see where this goes.

Currently writing this the night before I turn 21. And I’m kind of freaked out? I’m an adult???? Who thought that was a good idea? I certainly don’t feel like I should be one just yet but alas, here we are.

I’m also slightly excited, it’ll be nice to not have the pressure anymore. There’s such a build up and when it’s just after Christmas it can be a little mentally exhausting. I think I’ve cried like three times in three days haha. Even though I’m so happy, this time of year is a lot. Especially this year. I know nothing will actually change but I can’t help feeling that this is it. After this, there’s no ‘big’ birthdays  left (not really anyway). The things I’ll be looking forward to will be moving out and buying a house, finding a career all that sort of stuff. Which baffles me completely. Although I guess most people probably feel the same.

I look forward to seeing you all soon, in more detail. If you’re still there that is.


Adios.

P.s As it’s almost the start of a new decade, here’s me in 2009 and now. Just for future me to look back on. I’m just glad I found a flattering angle!

First month wages.

Hey guys,

Firstly if you would like to read last weeks post, click HERE and it shall take you directly.

This month was the first time I had a proper wage. It felt nice to see my ‘savings’ increase. I use quotation marks because I didn’t really have that much left. I decided that because I’d be paid soon I might as well spend that.

I expected to be a little more excited than I was but it was still a nice feeling.
I’m probably more excited this time around. I’ve pretty much spent ALL OF LAST MONTHS WAGES. No idea where it’s all gone.

I know I have bought a few pairs of concert tickets, lots of petrol, maybe some clothes but that’s about it really. No idea where the rest has gone. I’m sure when I get my bank statement I will have a shock. It’s quite surprising how quickly it goes. Normally I am very responsible with my money. I have to be to pay for all things ‘car’, like tax and insurance. But I thought why not be reckless for once. Obviously this month I am back to saving but it was nice to be different for a change.

This months wage is going to be even more because - no joke, I have worked most days. I’ve even done 8 days in a row.. I don’t mind all the hours so much because I actually have fun on my shifts (even though I would like to have a break) The people I work with are funny as hell so we always have a laugh. It’s been nice getting to know a whole new group of people because I haven’t had that in a while. I even have the uniform now so I feel like part of the group and it’s so nice. Cringe but nice.

One of my sisters colleagues have even told her that I am very polite and friendly when she’s been in the shop. It’s really nice to know that you’re doing a good job and leaving a good impression. I’m really happy at this job and when I get used to everything on the post office side of it, I will be well away.

Update: I am no longer only on a temporary contract, but a permanent one!!!:)

I’m very content at the moment. I just hope it stays that way.

Adios amigos!xo

Should I stay or should I go? -monthly goals #10

Hey guys,

I’m back, which you’ll be thrilled to know. It's been a while I KNOW.

I could blame my new job because I seem to be getting a fair few hours lately. Or I could blame stuff that's happening in my personal life. But it's my own fault. I've had time. I'm not sure whether to try and start again with this or not. I'm really torn.


I'm sick of putting pressure on unnecessary things. I think I'm going to make this more casual. Everyone needs to vent and honestly, hardly anyone reads this anymore anyways. So it's not hurting anyone.


I've been thinking of getting a tattoo recently. I have pretty much made up my mind but I just need the courage to go for it. Although I might be better off waiting until after Christmas unless I hurry. I have no idea what to do. Maybe it's a bad idea but I am actually sick of being the sensible one. Everyone I know has made reckless decisions or mistakes so why can't I? Fuck it.

I have been debating on pushing myself a lot recently. I have been reading up on my 'natal chart report' - no idea if that's right. Basically it tells you all about your sign and the positions of all the moons and stuff when you were born and how this contributes to your personality. I think...
I find it quite interesting, because these are specifically more personal than say, just reading your horoscope in a magazine. General horoscopes tend to be vague so they almost relate to anyone reading. But these charts are in depth and seem to be pretty accurate. It's actually quite interesting to me. I've been learning a lot about it all.
Now, in part of it, it said that I'm not the sort of person to go to the cinema alone which is 100% true. Most people I know are the exact same so it's nothing special but it is true. Whenever there is a film I'd love to see I always think 'who would like that, who would go see that with me?' 9/10 I don't even get to go because people are busy, not interested or I don't have much money budgeted.
At the minute there are two films I want to see, A Simple Favour, and A Star Is Born. And tomorrow I'm thinking of treating myself. Because why the heck not? So what if I look like a loner, again...fuck it. I'm sick of caring what others say or give a damn about.

It's either going to make me really anxious and I'll end up leaving early OR it could be really empowering and good for my confidence. So who knows. I shouldn't really go because I've almost spent my first months wage and we're only half way through the month... but lol.


Adios amigos!xo

Just in case you missed my face.

Monthly Goals #9

Hey guys,

If you want to read #8 click HERE.

You may have noticed that I did actually take some time away from these posts. I was going to miss this week too because I've had to deal with quite a big change again and I don't really do well with change. However, I figured that's how bad habits start so here I am. I'm back baby.

In the previous monthly goals post I wanted to work on my Psoriasis with the original cream that seemed to work for me. I started well...but it didn't last long at all. I should probably do this again. Honestly this will probably be in every months post. 

I also mentioned working on some art again. I have actually done this one! Well done me. I bought the procreate app on my iPad. I like it but I am definitely still learning how to use it. I have always done more sketches using pencil/ink more than anything so its a big difference. I still have a long way to go. One thing I do struggle with on the app is the sizing of the canvas. I normally use the screen size but then have a habit of zooming in and then I have a fair bit of negative space. Either that or I over estimate how much space I have.
I shall leave a few bits that I am fairly happy with, obviously not fabulous or anything but its mainly
so I can look back on my progress.







Now for this months goal. I am definitely going to focus on my blog more. I have neglected it for so long and fell out of love with it. I'm changing that. I will hopefully plan some posts in advance, ones with actual thought behind them. I also want to do more makeup posts too and I hope to have at least one in this month.

A lil rant

Hey guys,

I’m actually thinking of having a break from this. Here’s why.

Firstly, I have forgottten why I started and why I enjoyed it. Now on a Sunday I have no ideas and no motivation to even get my laptop out. What’s the point in half arsing something? I want to be proud of what I post again, like back when I did my #BeautiesOnFire posts. Maybe I’ll plan some makeup posts because I did used to like those. I’ve also started doing art again (yay) so that’s another thing to dabble into.

Secondly, I’ve been to the doctors quite a bit lately. A few weeks ago I went to A&E because my gallstones were playing up pretty bad. It’s the worst pain I’ve ever experienced honestly. While I was there they took some blood for tests and such as they do, and turns out the results weren’t quite right again. They wrote to my GP explaining everything and recommended another blood test. Turns out I’m anaemic again, which is quite funny because it was also this time last year.

So back on iron tablets and I’m having more blood tests soon. I also have an appointment at the hospital ( I think) to discuss removing my gallbladder. So honestly I’m just a little befuddled - the only word I could think of. I haven’t been feeling like great about myself lately which has made my psoriasis flare up, despite me trying to fight back at it with a brand new bottle of cream.

Honestly I think I need to give my head a rest and recharge. That’s what it feels like anyway.

I probably will write next week because I always feel guilty for some reason. So, see you then.

Adios amigos!xo

Monthly Goals #8

Hey guys,

If you want to read #7, click HERE.

So, last month I challenged myself to try and control my Psoriasis just a little. Since then I have been religiously applying a different cream to see whether it makes a difference or not. Luckily this cream doesn't make my arm feel on fire, it just stings a little. However to me it doesn't seem to have even affected it.

I have noticed that it is kind of dryer in a way. I can't explain it any other way. It definitely hasn't helped my knees at all. they've only been getting worse (yay...)

Honestly, I might try and do this again this month too but go back to the other cream. Then compare them both to see which I am better using.

I would say that I achieved my goal because I actually did well for applying the cream as often as I could. So go me.

This month I think I may revisit the art goal I set a while ago. Obviously I didn't manage to achieve this one. But recently I have been thinking of 'challenging my brain', when I was at college I always had things to research and learn about and now I have nothing. Nothing to really challenge me intellectually - and I actually miss it.

I think I will try and write myself a brief, and then work towards it. By making a brief I'll be able to follow it like I was at college, like it is a proper assessment. When I have finished I will be able to include photos of my work in the next 'Monthly Goals' post and I could ask a few friends to see what they think and include that like someone has marked it for me.

I'm excited for this.

Adios amigos!xo

P.s. I managed to finish my book! Woo.

I hope you are all well.

I'm not going to really say much in this post as I'd rather just post some of my favourite pictures for the future me to look back on.
I have already done one of these posts so if you want to look at those beauties click HERE.














I love these.

Getting out of a slump.

Hey guys,

I really need a better 'intro' but I hope you're all well.

This whole week has been quite the challenge. Mainly mentally.

I think it was down to hormones from my period but I have had a weird week. There was a day when I looked in the mirror and didn't even recognise who was looking back at me. It was ever so strange, it was like I was only half there. But I couldn't snap out of it.

On Wednesday I decided to actually make an effort with my appearance and applied some makeup. This definitely helped bring my mood up a lil', it always will. I'll get to 90 and still be winging that liner - well, hopefully.



I did also manage to get on the exercise bike for half an hour one day too. I was doing well working out and that however I have snapped out the routine so I haven't really done any in about two weeks now. I do believe that working out and exercise does help with your moods, personally anyway. Especially because I would do it in the morning, you get a sense of accomplishment so even if the rest of your day goes to shit, you know you still managed to do something productive that day. I'm going to make myself snap back into the routine because I actually miss it.

This week I also didn't believe anyone wanted to actually talk to me. When I did, I thought they didn't care for what I had to say, like it wasn't valid. I have no idea why - well hormones but you know. I even thought it about my mum. I mean, if you know me, you'll know I'm very close with my mum. We get along so well and to think she wasn't interested is very strange. She obviously was but for some reason my brain couldn't get that.

This week is going to be better, I shall make sure of it.

Adios amigos!xo

P.s. If you didn't read my last post click HERE and you'll be able to catch up.

Giving myself a lil break

Hey guys,

I have to start by apologising for last weeks post. I ended up not revisiting it and just forgetting about it. Honestly it was quite nice to (kinda) have a week off. I think I might actually allow myself to miss a week every now and then. It’ll probably help my content too.

Anyways, I hope you are all doing well.

I haven’t really got much to say this week - what a shocker.

However this week I did actually treat myself to some new makeup. By ‘new’ I mean just replacing products I had ran out of. Luckily Hannah had kindly given me a boots gift card which covered most of it. I only had to pay like £1.50 so thank you Hannah.

I repurchased my foundation, concealer, highlighter, and false lashes. However there was a deal on revlon, but one get one half price so I decided to also treat myself to a nail polish. I normally only get Barry m nail polish because they’re cheap and cheerful, but I’ve got to say, I kind of like this revlon one too. I probably wouldn’t pay full price for it (I think something like £6.99) but with the deal, I think I did well.

I think I may even treat myself to some new clothes. Maybe shoes I’m not too sure which but we’ll soon see, I’m sure.

I’m not quite sure what else to include in this post, maybe I’ll actually put effort into next weeks and think of an ACTUAL topic, who knows.

Adios amigos!xo

Hectic Sunday's - UPDATED TOMORROW

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well, and having a lovely chilled Sunday.

I can't say I did if I'm honest.

I will update this post in the morning so stay tuned. 

Sunday, 1 July 2018

Monthly Goals #7.

Hey guys,

- If you want to read #6, click HERE - 

I wish I could say that I actually managed to meet last months goal. I haven't done any baking or even been shopping for ingredients, so as you can tell... it went really well.

 If you have been readying my monthly goals posts, you'll know I actually set this as a previous goal and failed at that one too. I don't know why I can't seem to get the motivation to bake anymore.


As for this months goal, It's a bit ambitious but honestly I can't think of anything else to work towards.

I might try and get my Psoriasis down a little. Back in March, I did a post just to basically update how it was and where it is now (feel free to read that here). But since then it has flared up again, which I think is just down to the heat lately.

But as the sun is out, I should really take advantage of it. My mum bought some sun loungers too so I shall definitely be out on them as sunbathing does help calm it down. So maybe that along with applying cream will bring it back down to somewhat 'normal'. I guess we shall soon see.
Although knowing my luck, this will be the end of the nice weather and it'll just rain now for the rest of the year.

Wish me luck.
Adios amigos!xo

Take Me Away.

Hey guys,


I hope you are all well.

I'm going to be honest with you. I am starting to feel like there's no point in these posts. It saddens me because I have kept it up for a good few years now and I don't want to let go. I know I just need to try harder, and come up with better ideas but it is getting increasingly difficult. I guess we'll soon see.

I think I am desperate for a holiday. Anywhere. I'm sick of feeling stuck. It comes and goes, as you know if you actually follow my blog. I can normally snap out of it. Even my working hours have gone down which is nice for my social life but the money is shit. Can't even afford a holiday even if i wanted to.

What I would do to be away doing fuck all on the beach drinking anything alcoholic with my boyfriend. I'd love to stay in a villa in Greece where the walls are white brick or whatever with a pool outside. Kind of like Mamma Mia I suppose. Not have to think about work and what I'm earning, not having to have responsibilities just for a little while.


I keep seeing people my age buying nice new cars, and as happy as I am for them to be able to do that, it just makes me realise that I can't and probably wont be able to for a few years. To be fair I'm not in any desperate need for a new car, mine still gets me from A to B but it'd be nice.


I hope you all have a nice week. I'm going to leave this post here because I feel nothing else is really relevant. Hopefully I will have put more effort in next week.

Adios amigos!xo

I hope you all had a lovely day. I don't know why I am still so awkward starting these posts. It just doesn't feel right to say anything else at the start. Still, hope it's been a good one.

Once again I was stuck for a topic this week, although to be fair, I have been quite good lately at having an idea ready. Anyways, I will be doing one of my trusty 'What I've been listening to' lists. Mainly because I'm tired and PMSing so I just want to sleep - I'm not even sorry.

Mercy - Duffy
Candyman - Christina Aguilera

A Horse With No Name - America
Holy Diver - Dio
All Of The Lights - Kanye West
Rains In L.A. - Scouting For Girls
When The Wild Wnd Blows - Iron Maiden
Angel - Judas Priest
Turbo Lover - Judas Priest
Shotgun - George Ezra

One Big Achievement.

Hey guys,


I hope you are all had a fantastic week and are doing well as usual.

For the past month I have been challenging myself to exercise more using an app I found and to also watch what I am eating on the daily.

I weighed myself after two work outs so basically when I started.

Two Wednesdays ago I weighed myself again, expecting to have actually gained weight, but to find out that I had lost 8lbs. Woo. I can't even explain how excited I was when I saw the numbers. Which isn't at all a health way to look at it all because of becoming obsessed and all that. But still the encouragement was very much needed.

Last Wednesday I weighed myself again because obviously it was only 6 more pounds to lose before I had lost a whole stone and bloody guess what?!  I had only gone and done it! Honestly I am so chuffed with myself. But I hope that I don't just stop now, because I have reached a 'milestone'.

So far I have kept up with it but I am beginning to eat more crap again. Mainly KFC if I'm being completely honest. But I don't snack anymore which used to be such a bad habit for me. So I am pretty proud of myself for that.

I know I shall never be the best of the best, I've accepted that, then again there is no such thing as it's all subjective. However, I want to be the best version of myself and I feel everyone should strive for that.


So here's to achieving the best that I can.

Monthly Goals #6

Hey guys,

I hope you are all well. I always say this but if I'm honest, it helps me get the ball rolling. I never know how to start these, despite writing blog posts for over three years.

ANYWAYS, I can't actually believe this is already number six for my monthly goals. Seems like yesterday I just came up with the idea and yet here we are doing the sixth one. Crazy!

If you didn't read number five you can catch up HERE.

My goal for the month was to read more and I think I did pretty well. I sat outside in the sun and read a few times meaning I am a god few chapters in now. However I will say, I haven't read as much as I had hoped. Mainly because I am quite a busy woman these days so I just haven't even thought to pick it up.

However, the few chapters I have read have been very good. I think almost relatable too. Basically it's about a woman who is lonely, doing the same routine every week. And where I am in the book, she has started to take an interest in a man, so she is changing up her weekly routine. I have also learned she has a few issues with family, and not so many friends.

You can tell I haven got that far with it but I do very much plan on finishing it soon.


As for this months goal, I may go back to baking. I tried to do this a few months back but I just didn't feel like it. The only problem is, I'm sort of watching what I am eating so I'm just going to be baking cakes and giving them away. But hey ho, I don't mind too much.

I plan on making a lemon drizzle, which is mine and my mum's favorite. And I'll make my friend Hannah some banana muffins because she always asks for some, bless her. I might even push myself and try a new recipe. I always do the same things and stick with the same recipes. If I am feeling brave, I shall branch out.


I'll be sure to do a post on one of them, if any turn out aesthetically pleasing.

Adios amigos!xo

I’m pretty proud

Hey guys,

I hope you are all doing well as usual. If not, then may I suggest you grab your favourite beverage and have a little brrak from everything. Okay? Good.

Anyways, this past week has been quite the challenge as my mum has been decorating again. Although this time, she let me pick the colour scheme and I think I chose well - not to blow my own trumpet.

Basically I wanted a pale pink on the bottom, with white at the top and a very pale grey carpet. With the exception of the extra parts like the hand rail to also be pale grey.

A while back when she was ‘preparing’ to redecorate, I picked up a few of the colour tabs from the paint section in B&Q. I have no idea if that’s what they’re called but that’s what I’m going to call them. A favourite was one called ‘Darling’ I liked that one under all the different light settings and it also proved pretty popular with everyone else too. My mum ended up getting that one and even though it has dried darker it still looks pretty. It’s not exactly what I wanted but these things don’t go to plan anyway.

My mum chose the grey gloss without me, if I was there I would’ve looked at a lighter one but the one she bought isn’t bad either. It’s definitely grown on me this past few days.

I was able to chose the carpet and that was the hardest decision. With the lovely smell of new carpet putting me off, it was indeed a challenge. However I ended up picking a darker carpet. Despite wanting a lighter one I knew that the darker one would match better, plus my mum also took a liking to that one too.

All in all I think my mum and I chose very well. She has also done a great job of actually painting everything, it looks very homely.

Last time the colours were orange and brown and I hated it. It didn’t look cosy,  calming or welcoming so I was happy to see those colours go. I am very happy with it now and I’m glad I went with those colours.

Maybe I shall even use this colour scheme for a makeup look soon. Just to be sad and celebrate haha.

Adios amigos!xo

Fate

Hey guys,

Hope you’ve all been feeling well and I’d like to start off by apologising for the quality of these blogs recently. I’ve been really busy and I hope you all understand!

This blog is going to have a pretty corny yet interesting topic that has been smouldering with me recently, it’s actually about causality. If you aren’t aware, causality is the belief that everything has a reason behind it in life. Hence it has underlying themes of ‘fate’ or whatever. If this doesn’t interest you don’t worry, it goes far deeper.

Recently I’ve had quite a lot of good strokes of luck. Almost to the point it seems like I don’t deserve half of it. Alas, before that I had strokes of bad luck and so forth. The bad things have almost always faded away and evaporated into opportunities for good things to arise into my life. It almost seems as though life has stacked so many odds against me just to see them disappear.

Personally I’m not a religious person by any means, however it seems SOMETIMES life is governed by a force (almost, sorry if this sounds far-fetched) that controls just how much negativity and positivity one can receive in a while. However who knows, maybe it’s a psychological effect. Maybe I’m stupid. Maybe there’s nothing going on and it’s all coincidental. I can just say things are finally playing in my favour! But now I’m worried when things will go downhill again. Hopefully not in the near future, that’s for sure.

Adios amigos!xo

Catch Up!

Hey guys,

So this weeks post is going to be more of a catch up, mainly because I have no clue (as always) and it’s already 12:18pm. If you didn’t catch last weeks post you can read it HERE.

I finally watched deadpool. I know, late to the party - I KNOW. I don’t know why I put it off so much but I’m glad that I finally watched it. It made me laugh out loud several times which I do love in a film. All I can say is, I’m 100% excited for the second one now which I do plan on seeing.

This past week has been amazing. Mainly because of a certain someone. And they know who they are. They’re honestly amazing and I don’t know what I’d do without them now if I’m honest. It’s been a crazy week but I’ve loved it.

Also because of the lovely weather the UK had for like three days, I started this months goals. I sat outside with my new book and I just chilled out. I was the only one st home and I had cleaned the kitchen and put some washing on so I definitely felt like I deserved to appreciate the sun shine. I’m not normally one for sitting in the sun but I actually really enjoyed it.

I honest have already ran out of things to say. But I think I’m going to town tomorrow (/today technically) so I may update this with a few purchases that I get. I’m actually in the look for a new nail polish, not that, that’s exciting at all but still. Maybe you like the colour I get, WHO KNOWS.

Adios amigos!xo
