ASOS is my go-to site to order new workout gear from so, when they announced their very own fitness line (named ASOS 4505), you can imagine my excitement. Upon release, I headed straight over to ASOS to check out the range and struggled to add just the one item to my basket. I regretfully managed it […]
Yesterday I finished the eighth book of the year so far; book eight of fifty-books I intend on reading in 2018 (you can follow my reading journey over on my Goodreads account). Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders was the book I purchased from a bookshop last month; being a lover of physical books, […]
Of course we need to be celebrating women all day every day, but there’s nothing like International Women’s Day to help a feminist smile as soon as their alarm goes off. (Well, after snoozing it three times and finishing their second cup of tea of the day.) It’s on days like these when we see […]
For the last half a year I’ve spent my nights sleep-working. Let me explain. For reasons unknown to me, about four times a week, after I get in from work, I go to sleep and find myself in a weird sleepy trance whereby I am “working” in my bedroom. I have previously “pulled pints,” “set […]
Most of the nation is experiencing a snow day; most of us are regretting not stocking up with soup, milk and bread before the Beast from the East greeted the UK. Combined with the desire to not go to the shops and soak yet another pair of shoes and the hunger in my belly, I […]
Since it’s World Book Day (one of the best days of the year for book nerds like me), a book haul is most certainly due. I fell in love with reading back when I was much younger (but not much smaller) and in my mum’s bed as she read books such as The Faraway Tree […]
When Aaron I cook together, it’s almost guaranteed our finished product will be a carb-based, meaty and mediterranean veg kind of dish. Aaron’s signature dish is no exception. He is a PRO at making any kind of sweet chilli stir fry and we altered his recipe today to make our very own sweet chilli chicken […]
Whenever I visit London there is normally one of two reasons for the trip; to see someone (a friend/my brother) or to go to see a show (the theatre/a gig). While I adore both of these pastimes, London has far more to offer than just this (Who’d have thunk, eh?). Earlier this week I visited […]
Today I finished The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, the seventh book I’ve read this year. I decided to read fifty-two books in 2018 (you can follow my reading journey over on my Goodreads account) and knew this novel needed to be one of the first books I read. I’ve sat on the sidelines […]
Back in university─when I ate spaghetti and sausages from a tin, purchased Lidl’s version of Malibu and ate packed lunches while friends bought food from the uni cafe─I shopped until my bank balance had no more room left to drop. Despite being sensible in the food and drink department, I was not a girl that […]
