Love? Life? Joy!
Yesterday, something awesome happened in England and Wales. Yesterday, same sex marriage became legal. David Cameron, this is the first good thing you have done for this country. Well done. We still have a long way to go of course – educating school children to try and stamp out prejudice. Even educating adults about one simple fact – whether couples... Read the rest of this post...

I’ve had the misfortune of being on the end of some seriously narcissistic behaviour recently. We all have people in our lives that we find it hard to get along with or whose personality clashes with our own but what do we do when we realise that someone in our life is bringing us down? Like all personality disorders the... Read the rest of this post...

Someone told me the other day that there was a shortage of red paint in hardware stores in the city because girls were painting the soles of their heels red to make them look like Christian Louboutins. People can fake a lot of things in life. Orgasims, a tan, designer clothes…

So, we all know it’s tough out there for young people and graduates. Those first few steps out of university can be a massive anti-climax when there isn’t that dream job waiting at the end for you.

I’m currently sat with a raging hangover, still in my pyjamas and covered in bruises from last night’s birthday celebrations at the local roller disco (who’d have thought we’d be saying that in 2014?)

I’ve got this thing where I just can’t say no to anything – especially a night out with my favourite people. Scrap that, even a night out with a group of people I’ve only just met. I hate missing out. What if it’s the best night of the year? What if my friend does something so funny that nobody stops talking... Read the rest of this post...

We all live in our own comfort zones – you know, that little bubble of safety where the walls are soft and the landings are made of feathers. Routine is easy and the only thing that makes you nervous is having to see the in-laws, bumping into your ex boyfriend or being dragged into your boss’s office. But stepping out...
