You is kind. You is smart. You is important.
The Help
I have never actually sobbed and had an at loud cry at a film until this. My eyes are blood shot red and swollen. Viola Davis did such an exceptional job. Definitely recommeded, with a massive ‘you will burst out crying’ warning. It’s beautiful.

Good mornings.
So I fell asleep last night at like 8pm and woke up this morning at 5:30am. WEIRD. I don’t have work today so I’m not sure what to do, I’m in bed drinking coffee and wondering what to actually do. Bearing in mind I’m quite poor right now I can’t go shopping, I need to exchange these boots for a bigger size and go to the Post Office. As much as I like to sleep in,...

Pan Am and me doing nothing.
I had a week off uni, to actually do some work. Did I do my work? No.
Did I catch up all 90210, Desperate Housewives, Modern Family? YES! I also discovered this new American series called Pan Am. It’s so good and I’m totally in love with the wardrobe, hair and story lines. It’s set in the 60s and everything looks so glamorous. It’s a very different image to what...

30 Day Challenge: Day 7
Best job and worst job. I haven’t really ever had a proper, grown-up job, I’ve worked in retail and skincare/cosmetics part-time which is MEH. It’s good as something to do while you’re a student but as a full time thing it would probably drive me mad. Esp clothing retail, it’s repetitive, mind-numbing tasks. If I could have any part-time job as a student, I’d...

30 Day Challenge: Day 6
Five Favourite Songs. Again, I can’t pick. But I would say these are five recent songs I listen to quite often on my iPod. I go through phases where I have the same songs on repeat until I’m absolutely sick of them and I never want to hear them again.
Mumford & Sons - White Blank Page I didn’t even know Mumford & Sons existed until very recently (LATE). And I love...

30 Day Challenge: Day 5
Favourite childhood memory. There are many. Rolling down the hill in Kensington Gardens with my brothers is one that comes to mind, I just remember the smell of the grass and that feeling of having no worries in the world.
And of course, my summer holidays. We went camping in Morocco, in Moulay Bousselham one summer, I was about 9. We had these tents that were like little rooms, about four or...

30 Day Challenge: Day 4
10 places I’d like to visit. Wow. I want to see everything, I can’t do 10 but I’ll do the ones I really really want to visit right now. I’d like to start at home, in England. I haven’t even been up north yet! I want to go to Devon, live in a cottage in Wales for a bit too. Go out all night in Manchester. Bournemouth because my friend is from there and she says its...
