Milling about

You know you’re an adult when a building inspires you. But you know you’re truly an adult when your list of favourite buildings include: • The Feathers Hotel in Ludlow (totally haunted) *sleeps with one eye open* • Sagrada Família in Barcelona - for no other reason than my mate lives directly opposite and THIS...

Help, I’m healthy (this week)

You know you're an adult when you start making healthy choices. But you know you're truly an adult when your healthy choices (drumroll please) pay off. Wahey! (Oh no, does this mean I have to create a Tik-Tok account where I arrogantly impose my healthy choices upon other people so they too can lead a... Continue Reading →

The Dictionary

Contains language You know you're an adult when you acquire random items. But you know you're truly an adult when you put these items in your home, forget about them and nobody questions where they came from. Me: 'I like to keep the house minimal and clean' Mum: 'Here's a random bag of crap I... Continue Reading →

Turns out, it's not algebra like school taught us it was. Once upon a time (thanks to the Daily Mail), being a... Continue Reading →

Hello from the other side (of 30)

Thanks to the Quarter Life Crisis, I used to celebrate the weekend with Tequila and Nando's. Now, at 31, I spend Saturdays shopping for vegetables and enjoying (enjoying?!) an early morning swim. Who even am I? Apparently this is what the other side of 29 feels like and, clearly, I'm embracing grown-up-ness for all it... Continue Reading →

Hitched

Thanks to society, there's a stigma that women need to achieve everything by the age of 30. *Cue universal uproar*. Thanks to this ridiculousness, women have adopted a Pankhurst-inspired energy to embrace life when things don’t work out by this grand old age. Like me, for example who rebelled against this 'achieving everything' malarky by... Continue Reading →
