New Years Eve x

With 2018 coming to an end, and having just re-booted this blog to update friends and family, I’ve taken a short opportunity to look back on everything I’ve achieved and done.

Firstly, I’ve managed to spend a year in, and save money within a job working 40 hour weeks. And ,despite retail not being how I expected life to go , I’ve had laughs within my job and met some lifelong friends there -including a boyfriend of 8 months .

I’ve adventured to Disney Land Paris, Malta, Champneys Health Spa, Brighton , London (Multiple times) , Worcester and Nottingham. I’ve been on nights out, celebrated 20th Birthdays with friends, as well as James’s Graduation. I’ve seen 70 films, 46 of which were at the cinema, and read 12 books.  I’ve been to the Royal Albert Hall to see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets- as well as Hairspray, Legally Blonde, Shrek the Musical, War Horse and Nativity at the theatre ; tribute acts for queen and Adele.

I’ve been finally making my way around tourist attractions in the UK and have been to Imperial War Museum , London Zoo , Brighton Sea Life , Madame Tussauds, London Eye, Shreks Adventure ,Harry Potter studios , Winter Wonderland and  loads more I can’t remember…

Next year my goals are to get at least a 2.1 for my first year, to drive on the motorway and improve my driving confidence, to see 50 films at the cinema , read 25 books , save more money , learn to cook , donate to charity more and see more of family and friends.

I have planned more theatre trips, day trips and holidays .Overall, I am looking forward to the challenges and opportunities the new year presents ,as always surrounded by incredible friends, family , and love.


I hope everyone has a happy new year x

I love the way you laugh out loud The way you make me smile The way you're not afraid to hold my hand, if only for a while I love the way you look at me And the way you always care The way you look me in the eyes And sometimes even stare I love the way you give me hugs That sometimes last forever But think you should believe in yourself more, because you are actually really clever. I love the way you understand me completely, And even though it sounds really cheesy, the way you complete me.

How are you?

How are you? Three simple words. Infinite answers. What answer do you wish to hear today? Do you   want to hear about my pain, the heaviness, thoughts and fears that I keep? Do you   wish to know about my web of secrets and lies that are tearing me apart inside? What about the self-harm or the suicidal thoughts? Do you want to know how alone I feel and how many nights I have cried myself to sleep this week? And do you want to know for   you , to help   me , or to simply have something to   talk about at  your next meal? Think carefully. Don’t want to know? No,   I didn't think so. So I guess I'm   fine   thank you, how are you?

Mindset

I keep preaching to work hard and follow your dreams, yet my mindset has been the complete opposite lately.   I’m sitting around in idleness, achieving absolutely nothing,   thinking to myself, what’s happening to me? It’s like I’m purposely choosing to trap myself in this cage,  and if I fail?   I’ll only have myself to blame. I can’t bring myself to do anything when I’m in this state, So when I preach to others,I feel so fake. I’ve gotten used to this feeling, I’ve become comfortable, I’ve lost count of the days, It’s all become one long stream of consciousness   where everyday feels the same. No routine, no stability - lately, there hasn’t even been a plan A. Just sleeping, doing nothing and wasting the time away. I’ve become the person I hate.   Feeling all sense of hopelessness,   constantly making the same mistakes again, and again, and again. My mind has gone blank, I've lost ambition,   and it just becomes harder and ha...
