Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you are all having a great day and night. Whatever it is you're doing I'm sure it's more exciting than what I'm doing. I have no plans for Halloween. I'm not going to any parties or doing anything exciting really. However, I did have an idea which is just my cup of tea which I thought would be fun. I may as well make the most of my night in at home. Now the first thing I needed was some snacks. I went shopping today with my mum and I wanted to get some popcorn but Tesco's only had salted, toffee and sweet and salted mixed together. I just wanted sweet popcorn. Then I went to Iceland and they had no popcorn. I was a bit confused because normally places have popcorn. Anyway, I then decided to buy these cheese and chive pretzels. I've had them before and they're really nice so I thought I may as well get these. For my evening I thought I'd have a movie night. I don't exactly have any horror films as I...

My Life Next Door

This post does not contain any spoilers about this book. Just thought I'd let you know. I recently finished reading My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick. I start reading this book I was watching a lot of YouTubers recommending contemporary and romance books and this one was on the list a lot. I looked up the blurb of the book and I just wanted to know more. It's a really cute story and it's about a seventeen year old girl called Samantha Reed who comes from a kind of strict, political, quiet family. They live next door to the Garretts who are everything the Reeds are not. Loud, numerous, messy, affectionate. Samantha's mother doesn't want her family to have anything to do with them because they are nothing like their family. However Samantha watches the Garretts everyday from her balcony wishing she could be one of them. That is until one summer's evening Jase Garrett climbs up to her balcony and sits next to her which changes everything. It's a...

Love?

Image
Something that has been on my mind recently is the feeling of love. I am someone who has never been in a relationship and I don't know what it is like to be loved by someone who is not a family member or a friend. I have never had a boyfriend or even experienced a proper first kiss with a boy. I am twenty years old and sometimes I can't but feel like is this normal to have never been in a relationship and experience the love from another. Now I'm not saving myself or waiting for the right guy. I'm not even going out and looking. Even on the nights out. I may say I'm on the pull but deep down I just want a good night. I'm kind of a shy quiet awkward person. I feel nervous sometimes in social situations and feel like I'm not what a guy is looking for. I'm not a perfect body good looking fashionable woman. I'm sort of your average looking chunky woman who wears comfy clothes. Most of the time though I'm happy being single because I've spent...

How To Be Organised For University

Image
It's that time of year where students have to get back into a routine again. The truth about university is there comes a time when you will procrastinate. It happens. You think your deadlines is months away and you have plenty of time to do it all when you don't realise you have about five other assignments which are due in that same week. Believe me those deadlines will come quickly and you will enter the land of stressville where it all can get a bit much. So the obvious tip is don't procrastinate on your assignments but that can be hard. I thought I would just share with you some tips which would be helpful to some of you and ones which I'm going to try and use this year. One of the first things I would suggest is try to do a bit of work every day even if it's just an hour of your time towards a particular assignment. At least you're slowly progressing through your assignment. Honestly the sooner you get it done, the sooner you can have it checked ov...
