I've seen a lot of "best nine" and "in review" posts on Instagram and Twitter and, quite frankly, I don't have enough impressive pictures in order for me to post one. I know, I know, it doesn't matter if the pictures of my year are probably 80% food, 10% poor quality photos and 10% photos… Continue reading 2019 In Review

Who I’ve been listening to in 2019
I've already done a post on what I've listened to over the year but - considering I'm running low on post inspiration - I thought I'd do a longer post on just that. 2019 has been a weird year. At once it's been amazing, as I've graduated and explored some brilliant places with the best… Continue reading Who I’ve been listening to in 2019
Book Review: Mistletoe and Mystery (The Paradise Cookery School Book 3) by Daisy James
If you're anything like me, you'd be happy to find a pile of books waiting under the tree this Christmas. Luckily, I didn't have to wait until the big day to find a book in my possession, as a lovely (and, aptly, Christmassy) book found itself in my room last week. In the lead up… Continue reading Book Review: Mistletoe and Mystery (The Paradise Cookery School Book 3) by Daisy James
Living with Yourself (2019) Review
Aside from The Great British Bake Off, I don't think I've ever reviewed a TV show. Luckily, in between writing and whatever else I've been doing, I got to sit down and watch Netflixs' Living with Yourself. The show, created by Timothy Greenberg, centres on Miles Elliot. Miles assumes that a trip to a massage… Continue reading Living with Yourself (2019) Review
Up in the Air
Ah December. The reminder that the years nearly over, Christmas is coming and all you feel like doing is downing a bottle of Bailey's and watching Christmas movies in your pants. I thought I'd be feeling like that this year but, for the most part, I'm not. When I was thinking about how I'm feeling,… Continue reading Up in the Air
Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) Review [Dir. Ruben Fleischer]
In amongst the post-grad panic of applying for jobs (and getting rejected from most of them almost immediately), I found the time to catch Zombieland: Double Tap, the sequel to the 2009 zombie-comedy Zombieland. It was gore aplenty, something I'm not great with, but it was just as thrilling and funny as its predecessor. The… Continue reading Zombieland: Double Tap (2019) Review [Dir. Ruben Fleischer]
How to deal with rejection
(This probably isn't about the kind of rejection you're thinking, I don't know how to deal with that yet). So, you've made it. You've completed your course, stumbled on stage in that expensive cap and gown and, finally, the next stage of your life awaits. Take it from someone who has been there, done that… Continue reading How to deal with rejection
The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 4: My Thoughts
Last week, the remaining eleven bakers faced Paul’s area of expertise: bread. Michael won Star Baker and Amelia was the next baker to leave the tent. Aside from more job searching, writing (both a little bit of my WIP and some stuff for a fiction writing course I joined after my holiday) and getting bits… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 4: My Thoughts
The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 3: My Thoughts
Last week, the remaining twelve bakers battled over biscuits. Alice was Star Baker and Jamie, my fellow baking twin who kept me laughing and - up until this point - my hopes of winning the sweep rested on him (what a shame!), was the second baker to leave the tent. Aside from job searching, babysitting… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 3: My Thoughts
The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 1: My Thoughts
I haven't posted in a while, have I? Now I've graduated, I'm free to Tweet and Instagram to my hearts content. Other than reading, writing, job hunting and preparing for a girl's holiday, I want to spend the time I have before I become an "actual adult" (I.e a human with a full time job)… Continue reading The Great British Bake Off, Season 10 Episode 1: My Thoughts
