Annoying Things You Encounter When Travelling

by 1:00 AM
1.     Delays – As if the 2 hour check-in wasn’t bad enough. 2.     Failed technology – those machines that scan your passport, great if they work, really irritating when they don’t. 3.     People leaving bottles of drink in their bag – there are signs everywhere and it seriously holds up the queues at security. 4.     The rush to the plane – we have allocated seats why are you running to be at the front? 5.     Turbulence – if you’re afraid of flying more

My Bedroom Walls

by 10:38 AM
Anyone who enters my room will stand around staring at my walls. That’s because they are covered. I cover them in anything I find. Here is what's on them and what they look like: Posters of Peanuts Mirrors Shelves and mini cabinets of a thousand ornaments Birthday and Christmas cards Calendars Magazine cut outs Fairy lights Dragon Painting by my sister Cork board White board Snoopy paintings by my Gramps Photographs Other paintings randomly bought Postcards from Paperchase Necklace hanger

Assessment Day Style Interview Tips

by 1:00 AM
These tips are aimed at hospitality job interviews. 1.     Smile! May seem obvious to some but if you suffer from resting bitch face you may need to pay more attention and make sure to smile. 2.     Talk to other interviewees – You’ll probably be asked to talk to others but the interviewers will be paying attention to how well you interact with them. Be interested in getting to know them, you may see them as competition but forget about that. Meeting new people

Baby Fever or Baby Never

As I read the editor’s letter of Cosmopolitan (November issue) where Farrah Storr said she had previously written an article on her decision not to have children and all the criticism she received, I couldn’t help but think about some of the celebrities *cough cough Jen Aniston* that have been scrutinised for their childless lives. And it baffles me. Now at 21 years old, more and more people I knew at school are having children, and more and more of these children are

Why I Won't Do Tutorials

by 1:00 AM
I can spend hours watching videos of hair and make-up tutorials and I watch in fascination and jealously. Bloggers are often encouraged to expand their blog into videos for YouTube and the like. But it’s just not for me and here are some reasons why. 1.     My Face – I lose respect for anyone that feels they can make negative comments about a person’s appearance, but as someone who can’t step foot out the house without make-up on I don’t think I could

Things You Will Get Over

by 1:00 AM
1.     Failing an exam – at school tests can feel like the most important things in the world. You’ll soon realise they aren’t. Most exams you can retake so just take it in your stride and keep trying until you pass. 2.     Failing your driving test – I failed twice and I was shocked at just how down it made me. But after talking to other friends who had failed a driving test I realised I wasn’t alone. Yeah it would have been

My 1 Week Blogging Challenge

by 6:34 AM
I am not a serious blogger. I do it for fun when I think of an interesting (to some) idea for a post. This means my posts are sporadic. Therefore I am setting myself a challenge to post every day for a week. I will then be off to Barcelona to visit my friend so won’t be active. But it will give me a chance to see what type of posts I am most pleased with, so please don’t hesitate to give your
