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…
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!
Mr Selfridge and his Make Up
Mr Selfridge has hit our TV screens on Sunday nights for the past three weeks and is supposedly quite accurate to the real story behind Selfridges. I saw Jeremy Piven (who plays Harry Selfridge) interviewed the week of the show’s premiere, and he commented on how close to what actually happened the show producers had kept…
Ellen’s 2013 New Year’s Resolutions
2012 came and went so fast I barely gave a thought to my years’ resolutions, let alone thinking about ones for 2013! As 2013 (or, has my parents have lovingly labelled it, two-zero-one-three) has hit us big and hard, right between the eyes, I figured I ought to think about this yearly tradition!
My Abysmal Irregularity
I know a lot of people have exactly the same problem as I do, so some folk out there will identify with this post. I start things and don’t finish. I begin doing something and then forget it exists. I love the idea of doing something and then other things come along and the original…
