Yesterday evening I was sat in my car, I won’t tell you the context of the situation, but I will tell you I was distressed. In fact the whole drive home was accompanied with a long and emotional monologue. ‘I’m trapped.’ I repeated to myself ‘I’m trapped and I don’t know what to do. I just don’t.’ We’ve all had...

This weekend the crème de la crème of Europe’s music scene (well…sort of) gather to represent their country with their talent (however questionable). Yes, that’s right it’s Eurovision. But with UKIP constantly in the news and the up and coming European elections it’s been praying heavily on my mind:
How much do we really want to be a part of Europe?

About a year ago I was smoosing on Facebook, most likely procrastinating in exam time, when I came across a photo. The photo was of one of my friends. Flowers were aligned in a crescent shape on her head, her hair trailing behind her as she appeared to be cycling in the wind, her eyes were bright and her fair... Read the rest of this post...

I feel like I ‘ve been told so many times to be happy, to embrace life, that I’m beautiful - well you know what sometimes I’m just not. And you know what- after I started acknowledging that I felt a relief. It wasn’t ‘happiness’: This isn’t me saying that everything was better because it wasn’t, it was still shit - but I got on with it. Feel every emotion. We can’t be happy all the time because if we were - well, what would there be to write about?

So I’m a temp. I have no idea in what direction my life is going so I decided not to commit to anything long term and actually it’s worked out pretty well. A few weeks ago I was working at a building surveyor company, the next I was working at BMW. This week I was actually working at the company that... Read the rest of this post...

What if I told you I had a terminal illness? That I only had a few months to live but there was a chance I could drop off at any moment. How would you react? I can hear the conversation in my head: two ladies sat over two cuppas in the local greasy spoon. “They say she only has a... Read the rest of this post...

So I’m driving home from my temp job, feeling pretty content having made a couple-a-quid sitting around ‘playing receptionist’. I casually sing along to some drive time tunes on the radio when it suddenly hits me: “Oh no, oh god no!” I look down; sure enough, there is my Primani rucksack and it smiles at me with tartan teeth. Don’t forget... Read the rest of this post...

“So Beth, what do you think about immigration?”
Now before I tell you my answer I’ll tell you of the circumstances. I was working in a pub in London. I had just walked into the pub’s kitchen where three of its chefs were discussing current affairs as they placed over-priced fish in the deep fat fryer.

It happened a week ago. There I was casually browsing the interweb (Facebook stalking) when what should happen but a little Digi Dinosaur and a message pops into the centre of the screen: Unable to Connect to the Internet. What do you mean? I can’t look at the next picture along of him and his new girlfriend? But it could’ve been... Read the rest of this post...

It always seemed so distantly in the future, right? But it’s here. It’s New Year’s day; it’s the first day of a brand new year. It’s hard to think of these brand new starts, these fresh-faced days when all you know of 2014 is that it smells like what remains of last nights’ indulgences on your clothing. We are all...
