Well! Long time no see! I cannot say I have been consistent with this poor blog, but I think considering how 2020 has been so far, I have good reason! We, along like many others, can safely say that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on our lives. Thankfully, all our families have… Continue reading That was the year that wasn’t…

Christmaaaaaassssss!
Yay for time off! Finally its the holiday season, where I plan to eat a horrific amount of food, play video games and enjoy being with friends and family.

Snug as a bug in a rug
Not going to lie, this post comes straight from my bed. The bed I have been dreaming about crawling back into since 9am this morning (it's now 11:48pm on Sunday night) and one of the places I love being the most. I never used to be one for staying in bed, I'm happier plodding about… Continue reading Snug as a bug in a rug
Spring cleaning
This week we waved off our flatmate Kat, who has found herself a perfect flat in Glasgow for herself.

It really does… Continue reading Spring cleaning

This time, 2 years ago
I looked slightly different... We were in Kyoto and paid a visit to AYA Geisha & Maiko experience where I finally got to try a real kimono on and was made up like a Maiko (trainee geisha). We had a photoshoot too, as part of the package. It was an amazing day! And we return to Kyoto… Continue reading This time, 2 years ago
Living for the weekend
Since starting my new job, I really have come to realise just how precious my weekends are. The oppertunity to relax and see my friends and family means so much more to me now than it ever has done in the past! Even when I am just sitting on the couch with a book, now… Continue reading Living for the weekend
Regaining the joy of reading
My wonderful parents-in-law bought me a Kindle Paperwhite for my Christmas and since then I have been HOOKED! I loved reading when I was younger but I have hardly read since University, where I managed to burn myself out reading for my degree (thanks, English Language & Literature!) and reading lost all enjoyment. It no… Continue reading Regaining the joy of reading
Training in Croydon

I'm currently in week 4 of 5 and I feel like the training is starting to settle into my brain, I'm putting it into practice so it's making sense at last! I have… Continue reading Training in Croydon
