I haven’t written anything in my blog for months, partly through a lack of inspiration, partly through being incredible busy, and partly just down to who I am as a person. More recently I’ve had plenty of inspiration and time to write but I’ve still been putting it off, finding other things to do instead. … More Procrastination and Perfectionism
So far on this trip I’ve been terrible at updating my blog, but I feel like in a way that’s a good thing. Sitting down and writing takes time and effort, and I’ve been so busy I’ve had very little time to stop recently. And honestly, why would I waste time writing when there’s been … More A Whistle-stop Tour, Part I: The Netherlands
I didn’t realise how infrequently I’d been writing, or how bad my memory gaps had become, until I realised this post was about to follow close on the heels to a post also about change. Or at least a change in personality. I shouldn’t be too surprised really. There’s a lot of big changes going … More Change
Do you ever feel like your own personality is stuck in a state of flux? Like you’re not sure exactly who you are? Like who you thought you were feels like it no longer exists? Because that’s how I feel right about now. I feel like who I am, who I was, who I thought … More Metamorphosis
This past week I was lucky enough to be able to attend the Great Yorkshire Show for three days in a row, and I was ecstatic. It’s one of my favourite agricultural shows, and it’s always such an amazing time. This year was no exception and I had one of the best times of my … More Horses, Cows, and Sheep. Oh My!
Words. That’s what’s supposed to go here right? Thoughts from my brain entered onto paper. Well, screen in this case. I had thoughts the other day, things I wanted to talk about. Happy thoughts, good thoughts. Well, kind of at least. Less miserable than the previous weeks at least. Unfortunately my emotions and brain decided … More I Think I’m Supposed To Write Something Here
The birds at the beach. God they were so beautiful. You’d have loved them I swear. Half the beach that I went to was kept as a nature reserve and honestly, it was so alive. There were all sorts of different things. There were the birds that we’re used to, house sparrows, gulls, but there … More On Monday It Was The Birds
This week has certainly been a roller-coaster of emotions, there’s no denying that. I have literally been all over the place, and I’ve spent most of the time with absolutely no clue how I feel, or even how I feel like I’m supposed to feel. It’s been a ride and a half. I’ve had some … More Emotions Are A Rollercoaster
Dear Dad, I would apologise for this being almost a week late, but honestly I’m kind of done with being sorry for things that I can’t really do anything about, and unless I can switch my brain for a slightly more functional one then I’m not going to apologise. Life is kind of kicking my … More Dear Dad (Happy Belated Father’s Day)
I didn’t really have any idea what I wanted to write this week (I know, I’m shocked too, it’s not like I do that nearly every week). However this idea first struck me whilst I was writing a short story prompt that I’d set in some kind of post apocalyptic future, and then struck me … More Life Should Be About More Than Just Surviving
