My Goals for June

Firstly, how on earth are we half-way through 2017?! Last I remember, I was reflecting on 2016 with all my close friends, wondering what the year ahead had in store for me. 6 months later, I'm in the most important part of it so far!

How Much Difference Does 10 Years Make?

A few days ago, I was tidying my room and accidentally stumbled upon potentially the biggest procrastination tool ever - my old Nintendo DS. I'm definitely not ashamed to say that I spent a good couple hours sat on my bed, re-living the pure ecstasy that is Super Mario Bros, Animal Crossing, Nintendogs, you name it, I was 7 again for that joyful evening. Well, that was until the guilt of looming A-Levels and prospective adulthood in general swallowed up my happiness like a Piranha Plant. (Sorry, too tempting.)

Dealing With Tough Times

Since 2017 began, it's been a huge downhill slope for me. I've had a couple serious family issues over the first two months, and last week I lost a family member to cancer. On top of this, there's a lot of pressure concerning A-Levels and getting a solid plan together as to what I'm going to do after college, as well as learning to drive, trying to juggle a healthy lifestyle and seeing friends. It's been a tough one, and sometimes its really, really hard to remember that things are going to get better.

About Me

Hiya!

As this is my first blog post (hopefully one of many!), I thought I should start off with an introduction so you can get to know me a little and so I can give some background to myself and my blog!
