This year started off the same as any other. Thinking about resolutions. I usually make the standard – lose weight, do more exercise, be healthy – kind of resolutions, but this year when I made a few, they were actually a little different. I decided I wanted to read more books, and figure out how…

Feminism – Why I Don’t Like It
As controversial as it is to say, I really don’t buy into the whole concept of feminism. I understand people have died to achieve equal rights over the course of history, but I’m talking about everything since then. Modern feminism. I am very grateful, and extremely thankful that people have in the past and still…
My Disney Princess- Pocahontas
Every girl seems to have a love for Disney Princesses. Whether they are girly girls, tomboys, or so-so, they will feel a certain love for one or more of the famous Disney characters. I for one have decided in have an affinity with one princess in particular, and it’s a bit of a surprise one!
Continually Learning, Wherever I Can
Every Wednesday morning I work at a 90 year old man’s house. I turn up at 9am, and all I have to do is sit with him. He hates being on his own, so he wants people around him all the time. That’s pretty much it! I sit, watch tv, read the paper, and chat…
Getting back on track
Apparently my last blog was a really douchey post. I was just curious about some word origins, but Amy told me that I needed to put a pound in the jar. The douchebag jar, that is. It was the first blog I’d done in months, and I feel bad that it was the blog I…
Random question
I was just writing something, and I wanted to write, “you won’t be disappointed”. However, I wanted to turn it around, so that it’s a positive. Appointed is not the correct word though. I am hoping some English language genius will read this and explain to me the derivation of the words and disambiguate this…
A new project for the blog…
This week has been a really great week. Nothing particularly impressive happened, but it’s just been a really good week all round! On Wednesday night I went to a friend’s house for a girl’s night and it was so much fun. A few months ago I set myself a bed time, which was 11pm. People…
My Three Go-To Movies
I don’t know about you, but I have certain films that I go to whatever my mood, whatever I fancy that I will always enjoy. However, when it comes to other people watching the films with me, it’s not so good, because I know pretty much the whole script. My top three go-to movies are:…
Country Music & Me
Amy and I recently went to a country music festival in London, the first the UK has ever seen supposedly, and we thought it’d be cool if we both shared our views/opinions on it here on our blog!
The future and why I really don’t like to think about it!
It’s a standard cliché for a person not to think about their future, and it’s a box that I fit into incredibly comfortably. Not because I don’t think my future is bright, far from it! No, it’s more because I have literally no idea what I am going to be doing in 6 months time.
