Back To School Tips

Image
How is summer nearly over already? These past couple of months seem to just fly by. For some of you it may be even more saddening because it means it's back to school time.  Now as someone who finished school back in 2015 which is kind of crazy that it's been over eight years now, I'm going to be very honest and say I had a love-hate relationship with school. Towards the end, I was just excited to get ready for the next chapter in my life which was university. Anyway, I thought I'd share tips for you about going back to school as a little reassurance that everything is going to be okay and to remind you that it won't last forever.  1. Have a decent school bag Personally I prefer a backpack but I did fall into the trends of having a tote bag for school but when you have to start carrying lots of books and folders then a backpack is something more practical. It's especially practical if you have things like P.E. and take ingredients in for Cooking. I do not miss t...

Driving Test

Image
Yesterday was a big deal for me because as you may have guessed from the title of this blog, it was my driving test and the result was… I PASSED! FIRST TIME I honestly couldn’t believe it because I did have a test booked way back in January but I was so nervous that I ended up not going through with it so I didn’t have a chance to pass or fail then which I was gutted at the time but glad I got in because I wasn’t prepared. Now though I was prepared and ready for it.  I started my driving lessons on 1st July 2022 then I passed my theory test on the 9th August and now finally 418 days later, I passed my driving test. I’m honestly still in shock and can’t believe it. I still look at my certificate with my name and think, wow. I really did it. Only 6 minors in the end but it was all okay.  I’m so happy and onto the next adventure of getting a car to actually start driving in. It’s honestly an amazing feeling and I’m only 26 so I may be late to the party but it’s better than nothin...

My Festival Tips

I may be a little late to the party when it comes to festivals, although I'm actually going to a festival for August Bank Holiday plus as it's the summer there's probably a few festivals still happening and I thought I'd share my own personal festival tips. However this could also be useful if you're going camping or any day event either way I hope it's helpful for any of you still wanting to go to any outdoor events this Summer. 1. Make a list of everything you need If you've read my blog in the past, you know I love making lists and I feel like a festival is no exception because I am someone who likes to be prepared for anything I'm going to. A festival I feel like needs a lot more preparation as you're most likely going to be spending three nights in a tent and the last thing you want to do is forget important things like food, tent, clothes and toiletries. There are plenty of festival packing videos and lists online so you'll be able to find ...

First Post of August

Image
My first post of August 2023! I know we’ve had 20 days of August and this is the first time I posted. I think I was so busy preparing posts for the whole of July and planned to post more but life once again has this way of getting in the way which meant 19 days passed and this is the first time I’m posting in August. Anyway, how are you lovely readers? I hope you’re all doing okay. I know life has been crazy at the moment but we’re all getting there. Personally, it feels like I have so much going on in my life. I’m going to a festival in a week’s time for the weekend. Not only that but I have my driving test and I’m going on holiday to Cyprus but also finally planning a whole trip to London. I’ve also planned to go down to Bristol to visit some family in September so it’s safe to say from someone who barely has any plans normally, I finally have a lot of plans. I’m really excited about it and can’t wait for it all. Especially the festival as it’s bank holiday weekend so it’ll be nice t...
