A Little Update

A little update on my life…

My last post was in July. It’s fair to say I have neglected my blog and the blogging community, so I thought I’d just say hi and let you in on what’s been going on in my life…

General update: I’ve been struggling lately. I’ve lost all inspiration. I feel like every ounce of creativity has just been drained out of me. I’m sure you’ve all been there, maybe some of you are even there now. No matter what I do I just can’t seem to get motivated. Half-written blogs are piling up in my drafts and I’ve been really doubting myself. However… I don’t know if it’s the new pyjamas or the fact I’ve had my first proper day off in ages, I seem to have found a bit of that spark again, which is why I’m here now. I’m quite excited to try and create again and hopefully find a balance between this and my day job.

Love life update: I’m still gloriously alone. I know you probably won’t believe me, but I’m actually alright with it. Maybe a bit too alright. I’ve been worrying recently that I’ll just end up too comfortable and get stuck in a rut that I can’t get out of. But I’m trying and keep that on the back-burner. I’m actually enjoying my own company and doing whatever I want, whenever I want. I’ve decided that when I move to the city (hopefully very soon) I’ll be more open to meeting someone. For now, I’ll just keep taking every shift I can and binging Kath & Kim for the nth time. 

Job update: So if you know me, you know I LOVE my job. I love the staff, I love that I get Sundays off (mostly) and I love that it always feels like we’re getting ready for Christmas. But I need more hours to make my move to Manchester possible. I’ve been looking for a second job and have an interview lined up next week so I hope that goes well. I don’t want to jinx it and talk to much about it, but I will be sure to let you all know how it goes!

I’m just in that in between stage at the moment. I’ve got a goal in my head and I’m so close to making it happen, I’ve just got a bit more work to do. So, because of that, social media is taking the backseat at the minute, at least until I can find that balance. I need to just focus on making that move possible. I know I’ve only got a small audience on here but I want to say that I love each of you with all of my heart and I aim to be blogging and instagramming more frequently in the future, especially after the move!

Also, I am so BUZZING that it is October. Everything is Halloween themed and I am HERE FOR IT. Halloween is literally my fave ever day and has been since I was a kid, however, I reeeaaally need some help this year. If you have any cool Halloween costume ideas please hit me up! Anything cheap and relatively easy to create would be amazing (because well I’m poor and really bad with a hot glue gun) thanks in advance for any ideas sent my way!

Catch up with you all soon and stay spooky,

My Nose Job(s) Story

I have been heavily criticised in the past for preaching about body positivity following my cosmetic surgery. So I thought it was time to address those comments and elaborate on the matter. Here is my rhinoplasty story! (Complete with a few graphic images). I was ten the first time I broke my nose. I’d just returned from visiting Santa and was frantically running around my grandparent’s house. I was wearing my favourite pair of flared skater jeans because I was convinced I was Scunthorpe's answer to Avril Lavigne. I tripped over the bottom of my jeans and head-butted the corner of a coffee table. It’s safe to say that that was the most painful thing I’d ever experienced, but I didn’t know it would change my face forever. A year later I fell off a chair in class and broke it again because it was already so weak. I had to have a second operation to try and correct the damage that I'd done but it didn't really do much good. At this point I'd given up hope of ever ...

Clubbing: A Plus Sized Guide

We all love a good dance and an overpriced drink, but it doesn’t have to be the usual insecure hot mess that it so regularly is. There are so many things people stress about before a night out, below are a few problems that may pop up and how I like to solve them. But first I’d just like to say that you should wear whatever makes you feel good. If you are confident and happy, you should absolutely keep doing what you’re doing, these tips are just based on my own personal insecurities. Sweat. Worrying about sweat patches isn’t how I want to spend my evening and let’s face it, we’re extra insulated so it gets pretty warm in the club. Carrying a mini spray deodorant in your bag is essential to keep the sweat at bay. However it cannot always be prevented so make sure you’re dressing cleverly. Wear darker materials, this will conceal any marks made by sweat (also helpful when you inevitably spill a double vodka Vimto down yourself) and choose thinner materials. Whatever the weather...
