Megan Time!

The end of the shortest month of the year which means it's time for a favourite post. Here is everything I've been loving in the month of February. Cheaters This is a BBC comedy that tells the story of two people that end up sleeping with each other while in Finland only when they get home realise they are neighbours. Even more shocking, one is married and one is in an eleven year relationship. The episodes are around ten minutes long and series two came out last year. This is a very raunchy series with scenes of a sexual nature so definitely not for adult viewing. It's a fun series that deals with the morality of cheating and why people end up cheating. Obviously cheating is not an answer for any relationship complications but this series definitely makes you understand why someone may cheat on their partner. It's a relatable series and has a nice use of representation in it. Definitely a series you can binge watch as the episodes are quite short which makes it easy to...

Something that I've been meaning to do for the longest time is to start writing my novel. I did write a first draft of a novel back in 2020 during the lockdown but I never revisited again and lost interest in writing. Recently I've really had the creative bug and I even took a creative writing course on Skillshare which really inspired me to write.  I started developing ideas for a story and the creative juices started flowing. I had an idea for a particular plot twist that happens in the middle of the story. Instead of starting to write in a linear format from start to finish, I decided to write in a non linear format where I started to write the chapter in the middle of the novel where the plot twist happens. It felt good because I knew what I wanted to happen and knew I could work my way from this chapter. It made me realise that this is the best way to write because rather than struggling to figure out how your story begins or how it ends, you can work on a significant mome...

Hello, my name is Megan and I'm twenty eight years old. I've been blogging for ten years now and I honestly love it. It allows me to be creative, write what I want and also manage my own website. Of course, I've made a few mistakes along the way but overall I'm proud of every post I've made. My blog has grown to over 160,000 page views in that time which is a number I never thought it would reach but here we are.  Now onto the question of this post, why should you start a blog in 2025? Let's break it down. Allows you to be creative If you find yourself feeling like you don't have a creative outlet in life or want to be a writer but don't know where or what to write. Starting a blog can be a useful tool to have for many reasons. It allows you to work on your writing skills. Imagine if you were a character on The Sims and you have that bar on top of your head growing with the writing skills, that's what writing on your blog is like. The more you do it ...

Wishing all my reader's a lovely Valentine's Day. Whether you're happy in love or single and ready to mingle or just don't really care. I hope this day is a happy one for you and filled with lots of love. Whether that's love from yourself, a partner, family or friends. I hope you're having a wonderful day. I'm spending the day with some movies in the background while I work on a project. I've decided to get back into scrapbooking again so I thought I'd follow my own advice from last week's post and work on a project today. I'm having a lot of fun because I love being creative and I'm keeping myself entertained. I'm thinking of having curry for dinner so that's going to be nice.  If you're wondering what to do today then I have a post from last week that I'll leave a link down below. It's meant for single people but it does have ideas on what to do for everyone whether you're single, in a couple, hanging out with fr...

Valentine's Day is a week away and once again I find myself single on it. I don't mind because I've gotten so used to the single life that I wouldn't even know what to do if I had a man in my life. I'm not going to spend the day moping around, wishing I had someone to spend it. The day is about love and there is no better love than self love. I thought I'd share some of my ideas on how you can spend Valentine's Day when you're free and single. Let's get started. 1. Movie Day Go all out with a movie day. Get some cosy pyjamas for the occasion. Have a nice set up with all the cushions, blankets whether it's on your bed or the sofa. Pick out some of your favourite movies. The ones that you can't help but love or if you're in the mood. Binge watch a series you love or something you've never seen but always wanted to see. Then of course go all out with snacks like popcorn, nachos, chocolate or whatever you like. Pretend you're at the c...

Have you ever had a really bad day? To the point you think you've hit rock bottom because that's what happened to me a couple of weeks ago. Long story short, I got stood up and it hurt. I could have hid under the covers and hid from the world. Instead, I decided to have a day to myself. Get my independence back so that's what I did. I took a train into town because I knew I needed to get out of the house. My first stop was breakfast. I was going to go to a cafe but it was really busy so instead I went to Starbucks and had a bacon roll with a Caramel Macchiato. I was listening to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets while enjoying my breakfast but then decided to catch up on Eastenders because I like to keep myself entertained when I'm eating on my own. The earphones never come off. While watching Eastenders, I got my notebook out and decided I was going to write this post. I knew I wanted to get some writing done and was inspired by how I was feeling in the moment. I...

Finally we made it to the second month of the year. January always feels like a month that just never ends. Then we get to the shortest month of the year which is February with only twenty eight days. Then the year will just fly by. This month is supposed to be the month of love but sadly for me. I think I'm spending Valentine's Day once again alone. I nearly thought there might be a different outcome but I was forgotten about so it's just me again. I've spent the majority of Valentine's Day alone anyway. There was only one time that I wasn't alone and obviously that worked out great. It's just annoying when you go around the shops and you see these Valentine's gifts and you kind of wanna be like, what about the single people. Where's our day? We just get a birthday and that's it but everyone gets one of those so it's not really that special.  Anyway, Valentine's Day aside. I'm actually going to Cardiff to watch Wales vs Ireland for t...
