I’m currently sat in my bed. I’ve just got back from work and I’m thinking about the article I’m going to write. I’m feeling pretty tired and before I know it I’m reaching under my duvet and pulling out Hotty. Hotty is what is defined as a ‘comfort toy’: a toy (though it’s not always such) that we become attached... Read the rest of this post...

What do you do if someone tells you that you can’t do something? Do you agree with them, or do you set out to prove them wrong? The more I think about it, the more I realise how often this happens: ‘Perhaps you shouldn’t wear that dress? I don’t think you’ll like doing that. Maybe you should wait until you...

Westlife said it’s like flying without wings, Meatloaf said he’d do anything for it but Haddaway asked the question that I am now contemplating: What is love? I’ve always thought that being in love would be a really clear feeling, and thus I’ve never really felt it. I have no doubt loved and love a lot of things and people in...

I’ve been employed full time (albeit in various places) for about 5 months now. After working full time in a bar all I wanted was to work 9-5, every week-day and have my evenings and weekends free. And don’t get me wrong – it’s good: I have two days to myself, to do whatever I want and I know all... Read the rest of this post...

Some people are shits aren’t they? I would like to say that this isn’t now I truly feel. I’d like to give them the benefit of the doubt. I’d like to say maybe it’s that we’re too similar, or our personalities clash, or maybe they are having a bad day. But let’s face it, some people are deep down miserable,...

Street art really brings me a lil joy! Since moving to Turnpike Lane, I have been truly inspired by the awesome artwork all around the local area. ‘The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls’ – Pablo Picasso. ‘Who is responsible for these visual delights!?’ I would exclaim to my housemates as I returned home...

England are out of the World Cup 2014 and needless to say I am not happy, not because I am devoted football fan (devoted to Beckham always) or had much hope in them winning but that’s one summer community that’s ended. Like many hopeful fans across the UK, my friends and I gathered to watch England on the two occasions... Read the rest of this post...

I recently made a major decision that will change my life. Since then, other parts of my life have really improved. Everything around me has taken on the glisten of wonderment that I hadn’t seen there previously. So, its probably about time I told the world. Or, at least, those in it who don’t already know… I’m moving to China.... Read the rest of this post...

If I could give one bit of advice to anyone, it would be: go and talk to old people. Why? Because they will be able to offer you more. Grandparents are just brilliant. I could listen to my nan and grandad all day because they truly have the best conversations. I genuinely think more interesting and meaningful stuff comes out... Read the rest of this post...

‘Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass… It’s about learning to dance in the rain’. When you’re in a storm in life, it’s easy for others to quote the above words of wisdom, I mean they’re beautiful, aren’t they? But while dancing in the rain sounds poetic when the waters are calm, it’s much easier said than done. This... Read the rest of this post...
