I was called “very strong-willed” the other day. It’s very far away from the view I have of myself to be honest. I just see myself as a panicky, over-thinking, late-twenty year old mess. But then, I got thinking about it. Maybe I actually am quite “strong” – because some of the things I have to put up with, which for the purposes of this blog I will not actually go in to detail, a lot of people probably would have said a big “F U” to, many, many, maaaaaany moons ago. The same person who said I was “strong-willed” I actually stood up for the other day in a slightly heated discussion. One where it felt like they were getting the blame for something that in all it’s entirety was not their fault. So yes, I sat back and thought deeply (yeah ‘cos I am deep & shit!) and came to conclusion that actually yes, maybe I am.
It seems such a stupid question to be asking at nearly 27 years. It’s something you’d expect of a teenager at school to ask, wouldn’t you? But, what happens when you are in your mid to late twenties and you still feel like you don’t & haven’t ever quite fit in? It’s a question that I have always asked myself. Have you?
Everyone is creating amazing posts on 2015 and reading them is making me feel like rays of light are shining out of my face because it’s just so positive and lovely! It’s inspiring to see so many accomplishments from a great bunch of people that it seemed silly not to do my own little post celebrating my mini achievements and milestones, both professionally and personally. With every year comes highs and lows, some days I’m a half full kinda gal, others, well let’s just say I really need a kick up the bum to get motivated so hopefully seeing and writing down all the great stuff that’s happened this year might make me feel a little bit happier with myself.

Christmas is not too far away and with the Black Friday sales imminent I thought it would be a great time to share with you a Christmas gift edit. As much as I’d love to bring you a gift edit that includes divine and scrumptious gifts, I thought a Christmas stocking fillers edit would be a great cause for those working on a tighter budget or for those who do Secret Santa’s within the workplace with a certain price limit on them. Hopefully some of these ideas will tickle your fancy and get you thinking when it comes to buying a gift for those you love.
