  • The Perks of Being in a Long Distance Relationship

      As I have mentioned in a previous blog post (“21 things to achieve before I’m 21 (or at least, be on my way to achieving)” http://wp.me/p4FOMK-3l ), my lovely, caring, soppy and sometimes annoying boyfriend lives in Brazil, whilst I live in grey and rainy Britain. We have been going the distance for nearly a year…

  • 10 things I have learnt since moving to London

    Moving out of your family home, and stepping out into the big wide world is always a daunting, life changing experience. Perhaps even more so when you move to East London, and although they never said anything, your parents are petrified for your life. It’s not as scary as it may seem, and I think moving…

  • The New Face of Campaigning

    Gone are the days (thankfully) that our Facebook feeds would be littered with heart wrenching photographs of suffering children; the post claiming that 100,000 likes would miraculously cure them, or that if you did not share you would be forever branded Satan’s minion. Instead it would appear a new trend in social media campaigning is emerging- one that…

  • 21 things to achieve before I’m 21 (or at least, be on my way to achieving)

    I turned 20 a month ago, and it only really hit me last night that I am actually in my twenties. What always seemed like a fun grown up thing to be, is actually reality. Whilst TV shows such as Friends and HIMYM lead you to think it’s all about hanging out constantly in bars/cafes and having…

  • Childhood Revisited

    I had polaroid film that was expired and I wanted to use up. I decided it would be fun to do so when spending lazy days in Wakefield, the city I was born and raised in. The result was a mixture of good and bad, and the black and white film gave a haunting feel…

  • London: A Melting Pot of Style

    Under no circumstances could I be considered a ‘fashionista’, or someone who oozes style and is always two steps ahead of the fashion pack. Being a student on a budget my wardrobe consists mostly of Primark, accompanied by cheap market finds or what I found when spending too long on eBay. It ranges from band…

  • A Brief Romance With Punk

    When I was in high school, the trend of being emo was in full thrive. A few of my friends would sport a fringe covering half their face, fell in love with Alex Heartbreaker, and would perfect the art of wearing thick eyeliner. It was never really for me, the emo style. It wasn’t the most…

  • Festival Tips 101

    I have been to a few different festivals since I was 16, and as a result of getting stuck in mud, rained on, sun burnt and lost more than I’d like to recall, I have picked up a few tips and lessons learnt. Now that the British festival season is upon us I thought it would…

  • Thoughts On The F Word

    Recently my sister and her boyfriend came to visit me, and whilst out in the evening they started asking me questions about feminism, and whether I consider myself a feminist. I said of course I do, I want gender equality after all. My sister mentioned she had recently started thinking about feminism, and when I…
