TruNinja
So last weekend, me, Jacob, my dad and my little brother all went to TruNinja in Warrington with my little brother’s football team for an hour of expressing our secret ninja-like skills! It is safe to say, the kids definitely showed us, adults, how it is done… don’t think I have ever felt so old! But…
Our Trip To Chester Zoo!
Yesterday (Saturday 10th November), me and Jacob took a trip to Chester Zoo! I hadn’t been for a few years and I used to love it as a child, so I was super excited! When we arrived we collected a map from a very welcoming member of staff at the entrance and sped off to…
Things That I Am Looking Forward To!
There are actually quite a lot of things that I have to look forward to when I really stop to think about it! We have Halloween around the corner… Me and Jacob have been doing Sober For October, raising money for the incredible Macmillan Cancer Support Charity (you can donate here!), so we are looking forward…
Evaluate Your Life Day
This is going to be a personal one! I don’t quite know where to start with this one… my life is a complicated one. People who look at it from the outside think it is a good, happy life… I mean I recently graduated university and have my future all planned out, what else could…
Pumpkin Picking at Windmill Animal Farm!
I have never been Pumpkin Picking until yesterday (13th October 2018) at the age of 22. Me and Jacob took a trip to Windmill Animal Farm in Burscough yesterday to feed the animals and hold the critters! When we arrived we purchased 2 bags of animal food (50p each) and headed straight to the barn…
National Poetry Day
This is a poem that I wrote many years ago when I was just 16… although I looked very different back then in comparison to how I look today, I am still very unhappy with what I see when I look in the mirror. I wish my body was in between how it was then and…
Sweater Weather
We officially entered Autumn on the 23rd of September… and I am loving it!! Autumn is one of my favourite seasons, for many many reasons! The weather is gradually becoming nippier, meaning I get to wear cute sweaters or cosy hoodies, with leggings or comfy jeans and boots! I also love wearing scarves, I have…
Stress, Stress and More Stress
I have so much to do this week and it is driving me crazy. I need to practice for my upcoming theory test, record two videos for my Think Ahead application, take part in Blurt Alerts Charity event at Manchester Trafford Centre, finalise some more Blogtober posts, overtime in work, write something for the next writers…
Migraines and Bad Head Days
So today has been tough on both a physical and mental perspective. For the majority of today, I have had such a terrible headache which has made me feel drained, dizzy and nauseous as well as feeling a little bit down and blue. In hindsight, it is not the worst of days as despite feeling…
Lack of Understanding Regarding Mental Health
Does this look like the face of someone who suffers from depression and anxiety? Is there a certain way to look when you suffer from poor mental health? The answer is no. No there is not a specific way that people should look if they have mental health problems… there is no specific look for…
