Girls Think I'm Funny The Quarter Life Crisis wouldn't be complete without a messy break-up - followed by tears, cocktails, wine, more cocktails, therapy and an unwelcome appreciation for Celine Dion. While the world is full of pressure to meet the 'one' (the one who won't blue tick you on WhatsApp), if something isn't right… Continue reading Stop interrupting my grinding
Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now
There comes a point in adulthood when you feel the pressure to have grown up and become 'who you really are'.

But what I… Continue reading Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now
Ready, Steady, wait until the smoke alarm goes off and you know it’s cooked
Girls Think I'm Funny Has anyone else noticed that their social media feeds and TV channels are clogged up with people telling us to do more with food than just eat it?

Hair Don’t

Knock, knock. Who’s there? Secret bar. OoOh.

I’ve got 99 plans but I can’t stick to one
As someone who prides themselves on their organisation skills, I'm currently hiding behind perfectly arranged, colour coordinated cushions in embarrassment - I've double booked my friends and now I have to break the bad news.

Yoga & ‘Pilatoes’
You know you're an adult when you get a gym membership. But you know you're truly an adult when you spend the rest of your adulthood complaining that you have to go to the gym. OR you spend your adult life adoring your bulging biceps in the mirror - in which case, you're a twat.… Continue reading Yoga & ‘Pilatoes’
Pie-gate
I came home the other day to discover that my boyfriend had bought us a pie. In normal circumstances, I would SHOVE MY FACE STRAIGHT INTO THE PIE and go back for seconds, obviously.
