Blank page fear: where to start.

Stephen King was right when he said "The scariest moment is always just before you start" I 100% have what is called blank page fear. Now I would assume that most people who suffer with anxiety will have experienced this is some way but I also just think it's a thing that can happen to anyone. Basically, I interpret this as where on earth do I start, with anything! Even if you have loads of ideas it's hard to make a start when there is no way to know the outcome. I've split this blog post into three sections in which I experience the black page fear. Blog post I'm really new to blog posting, as I have said before it's something I have always wanted to do but some days it's hard to write what you want to say. My blog isn't really specific to one thing where as some people have a beauty blog or a travel blog, I kinda wanted to include everything as I didn't want to have the worry of restricting myself. Even if I know what I want to...

Home Bargains: Mini haul and product review March 2018

Hey to everyone reading! I recently went to home bargains and picked up a few bits and thought I would do a haul and review of what I did get. Also, I'm dying to go back and get all of the mermaid stuff! Home bargains is a go to shop for a lot of people, me included, they do loads of beauty stuff at cheaper prices as well dainty things that you can't resist. Unfortunately I'm rubbish and only remember the prices of some of the things but they were all cheap! So here goes... Firstly, I picked up these shampoo and conditioner for 99p each, Bargain! I've not heard much about this brand anovia but I have seen it in a few of the cheaper shops. I'm really fussy when it comes to shampoo and conditioner, I don't know whether it's because I have blue/black hair or what but whaever I use my hair goes greasy after like 2 hours or washing!  There are only two brands I've used that help with this, one being tresemme. I can use any of their shampo...

Uni Life - Good or Bad?

So I'm in my third and finally year at university and honestly I have mixed emotions about graduating (hopefully) in the summer. I absolutely love being educated and learning and writing. Mainly why I started a blog is to express my thoughts, inspire others and continue to write. I've been tempted to carry on and do my masters but I just keep making excuses to go into the big wide world and need to just bite the bullet as they say.  Basically in University I sometimes feel as though you're just watching people get the job whilst your stuck in a lecture hall or classroom and many times I've thought am I wasting my time when others are getting what I want? But that is definitely not the case, you just have to keep reminding yourself why you are there whatever the reason may be. Some time in the future I aim to own a tea/coffee shop with amazing interior and for that I need a business head, hence why I have done a top-up degree in International management ba...
