Patience

Wowwww long time no post! Anyway, one of the teachers where I work constantly has her phone ringer on full blast. Guess what her ringtone is? 'Patience' by Take That. She's a cool lady, not gonna lie. She takes no shit from other teachers and we had a really good conversation once on the minibus…

Fear

I don't know why I was thinking of it, but I realised that while I've been living in the new flat, I've yet to see a spider. Obviously I'm not complaining, but it got me thinking about other things that scare me. It's not just spiders, but also snakes, dying, growing old, being alone in…

Effort

Sometimes I find it really difficult to do things. I'm not sure if it's my shitty mental health or perhaps the fact that I'm lazy, but sometimes I just can't be bothered. I think I've touched upon this in a previous post, but if I want to do something, I have to really push myself.…

life as we know it

Currently, I can hear my mother discussing Brexit with the plumber, I am listening to Modern baseball, I am typing this post. To be honest, I've been scrambling my brain all day thinking of a post to make today. I've had no inspiration and have been in a rut of sorts. Yet, just a couple…

unexpected

So today was my last shift at work. Beforehand, I was dreading going in because people I hadn't even told yet already knew, it's weird that I've been the workplace gossip for once. Well, me and the two other people who have recently handed in a notice. I didn't think I would be so sad about…

when everything is embarrassing

Oftentimes I am scared to do something I think I may enjoy due to embarrassment. It's silly, really, as the activity itself won't even be something to get embarrassed over. I'm not sure if it stems from anxiety over differing from the norm, or maybe just fear itself, but it's something I am attempting to…

pet peeves/hates

 So tomorrow I have a twelve and a half hour shift at work, and I figured, hey why not make my mood even worse by making a list of pet peeves?! And that's basically what this post is going to be. 4. When people cough/sneeze and don't cover their mouths This is just plain gross…

adult living

Recently I've been doing more 'adult' things, like buying our food shopping and making plans to see my family without my mum or dad's help. Sometimes I forget that I am in fact now eighteen years old, and I am legally an adult. There will be a time where I live away from my parents,…

the waiting game

Everyone seems to be waiting for something. Whether it's pay day, a new romance, or simply the weekend, everyone always looks forward to something. For a lot of us, life is a clockwork event. There are certain things that always happen, at the same time as always and usually with the same circumstances. I personally…

The Subject of School

A lot of my colleagues are having their last day at work, and are soon to be going back to university. It's weird to me, because I remember when I was happily filling out my UCAS application, studying my impressive inventory of  prospectuses, and I thought that I would be one of those students who…
