Valentine’s Day | Take 2
So, with Valentine’s Day just having been around the corner, I decided that I would go ahead and make a little post dedicated to our night together. The 14th February is a very different day for a lot of people and there are a lot of differing opinions out there regarding the day itself. The two main opinions are as followed (as I have found personally): Valentine’s Day is the most romantic day of the year and is a chance to celebrate your love with our partner or friends. Valentine’s Day is a rip off created for selling un-needed s**t. Sophie, 2019 Me? I am number one and always have…

The Life Of Sophie | Let’s Catch Up
Hello! Its been a while, I know it has. Sometimes you just have to take some time away from things, no matter how much you enjoy them. But here I am people. I’m back. While I get back into the swing of things, I figured you might be interested in a catch-up with my life. An update on Sophie, you might say. If you’re not interested then you’re probably better off clicking the big red X at the top but I’d appreciate if you stuck with me, if only for a little while. So, if you have been following me for a while then you will know that I was…

New Job Update | The First Day Of A New Life
Bit dramatic the title, isn’t it? It is the truth though. Over the past couple of weeks there has been a lot of changes in my life, both wanted and unwanted. Starting my new role in a new office with a new company was one of them changes. I woke on the 24th September knowing that my life had made a massive leap. I was out of my comfort zone and starting work in a completely new place. Scary, right? You see the truth is that your work does make up most of your life. Working is life for most people and I am included within these people.…

Final Day At Work | A New Start
What an emotional day. My final day at work before I begin my new job in five days time. It was a weird one because as excited as I am to be starting a new job, and hopefully my future career, I was sad to be leaving. I think if you have enjoyed working for somewhere for over a year and a half, that is pretty normal, really. One door closes and another one opens Leaving my job was that best thing for myself even though I was sad to be leaving. Due to my wanting to ‘fly the nest’ as people say, I was needing a full-time…

Should We Be Killing Spiders? | Yay Or Nay?
Do not fear. No images of spiders shall appear in this post. No-one likes to look at a picture of a spider. If you do, you need to leave swiftly. Thanks. What am I scared of? I think you could probably guess but I’ll let you know anyway just in case you havent caught on. SPIDERS. I don’t know why but I am completely terrified of them. As are most people, I believe. I think it probably is one of the most common fears. I’m not sure about anyone else but they just make me feel uncomfortable. It’s the legs. Eight legs! So unnatural. I am aware that I…

How To Create Circle Images/ Photos Using Photoshop | Blog Improvements
I have not been blogging for, like, ages and ages. To be honest, I think it has only been about two months, which in the blogging world isn’t really that long. I still consider myself a beginner and I am constantly learning new things. One main aspect of being a blogger is checking out and supporting other fellow bloggers. When you do this, you also notice elements on their blog that look awesome and you get the ‘how do they do that? I want that‘ moment. I came across one of these moments multiple times. I had noticed so many people had some of their images in a circle…

Blog Goal Reached | Featuring GIVEAWAY!
I still consider myself a newbie and, to be honest, I probably will continue to do so until I have reached the six-month mark, maybe even longer! It might be a year before I actually consider myself a blogger. I started blogging for myself and it was a good way to fill my free time (basically once Ginger has gone to bed for his 4am start) and to occupy my mind as well. I love writing and always have done so this was the perfect hobby for me. I blog for myself and have done since around two months ago when I published my first post. However, …

My New Job | I Got The Job I Wanted
Yippee! This is definitely a yippee moment! For anyone who knows me or has followed my blog at all, you will know that I work at a local paper currently as a Production Assistant. Now, don’t get me wrong, I do like my job and I work with awesome people, but sometimes it is the time to move on. It is definitely the people you work with who make your job what it is. I couldn’t have asked for a better boss and everyone in the office is lovely. However, mainly due to myself and Ginger wanting our own place, and also wanting to start a career to last me…

BLOG UPDATE | New Category Coming Soon!
I like to think of myself as a writer. ‘Think’ being the main word in that. I am not a writer but I suppose it is what I aspire to be. I have always done best in English classes and this is the main reason I chose to study English Language at the University of Huddersfield. Alongside, I chose a Creative Writing course as well. The writer in me. All my life, all I wanted was to be the next Darren Shan (you can read all my love about his books here) and so I have like a million starts to books or half-written ones lying around. My main problem…

Our One Year Anniversary
As I sit here typing this, I sit with a smile on my face knowing that I have had the greatest three day weekend with my best friend and my favourite person on the planet. My Ginger. A three day weekend of celebrating making a year together and celebrating our future years to come. They say the first year of a relationship is the hardest and if you can get through it then you can get through a further ten! Here’s to many more amazing years with my Ginger. On the 10th August last year, Ginger and I sat in Bella Italia for our first date and we haven’t looked…
