Something New each Day

Hiya guys, It's sometimes great to be short but most of the time it's shite! Being at max 5ft 1 has been the brunt of people's jokes since I was at high school because, believe it or not, I've actually been short my entire life. This not my fault because my parents are probably the shortest pairing in the world because my dad's 5ft 6 and my mum's 4ft 10 so you can't be surprised that I ended up this height. I don't really care sometimes because I can get into kids clothing and I don't stick out like a sore thumb in awkward situation. But that's where the advantages end and the problems are becoming more visible as I get older. I've been trying to find an outfit for a wedding in the winter and this is where the problems become seriously annoying. I CAN'T FIT INTO ANYTHING! I've been surfing hundreds of websites and visiting probably the same number of shops to find something to wear. I don't have the issue where I can...

Hiya guys, Today is yet another different post and one that is really hard for me to write. I may be at university in London but I was born and still live in Manchester for most of the year. So, waking up this morning after my last exam was meant to be a sigh of relief but instead it was a sense of uneasiness and worry. I was woken up with a message from my Uncle in Canada wanting to know whether me and my sister were okay, this raised alarm bells straight away. Fast forward ten minutes and my eyes couldn't believe what I saw, a bomb had been set of at the Manchester Arena after an Ariana Grande concert and had killed around 22 people. I initially thought it was some kind of horrid joke that had gone too far because I knew people who were going to that concert last night and it was so close to home. The Manchester Arena has been such a massive part of my life and a place that has the best memories from seeing my first concert (S Club 7) to seeing some of my all time favou...

Hiya guys, This post is way too negative for my own liking but, after my exam this morning, I was almost brought to tears while I was watching WWE RAW from last night. I needed somewhere to air my grievances and tonight I'm having a go at the crowd, not Creative or the superstars. I was enjoying last nights show and, as usual, I was way too excited for the Cruiserweights match. The whole Monday night show is just me waiting for some of the Cruiserweights to come on and put those superstars to shame with their ability and technique. Well, you can imagine how upset I was when 4 of my favourite stars, Neville/ TJP v Austin Aries/ Jack Gallagher) on the ENTIRE roster had a tag team match. Wait, no... I wasn't upset that they came on, I was upset about the crowd's reaction. Those chants of 'This is boring,' and how the crowd wanted a refund really made me feel sick. Okay, you may not connect to these stars as much as the ones that you've watched for years ...

This is a letter from me and probably the entire population who are or who ever have taken you while they were studying. I know you mean well and to some people you are their saving grace because they understand how your brain works and how you are manipulated by the lecturers, teachers and examiners but, at the end of the day, I am not one of those people... and neither are a lot of people. For most of us, you come around once a year and that time of the year and it is literally hell! I try to avoid you when I'm picking my subjects but why is it that all of the best subjects have to have you as assessment? Cold War - Exam. Germany - Exam. Britain - Exam.  I'll pretty much enjoy the entire year learning different things that are genuinely interesting (except maths and science at GCSE because I was just shit at those subjects) and getting to put that knowledge into practise by making products or writing stories. It makes me want to carry on studying for my entire life...

Hiya guys, Another wrestling post but it was the biggest night of the WWE calendar: WRESTLEMANIA! This is the first year I have watched it from the start to the end and, after the pain of some of the last pay-per-views like Summerslam, I really hoped that they would bring something massive out for the Ultimate Thrill Ride. Please don't read if you don't want spoilers! Pre-Show Cruiserweight Championship - Neville defeats Austin Aries This was a match that I really wanted to see on the main card because the 205 live roster has constantly been impressing me. None more so that the King of the Cruiserweights Neville who returned heel after a long break due to injury. This match actually had a real pop with the crowd showing their support for the opponent Austin Aries. This match really showed the crowd what talent these wrestlers have and how their small size really improves their mobility and skill set. There were some real tense moments where I thought that Nevil...

Hiya guys, The Strictly tour has been over for a while but my brain hasn't wrapped itself around the fact that I have to wait until September for it too start again. But, these Strictly posts are going to keep coming until I've maybe done one for every bit of Strictly possible. If you follow me on any of my social media, or have followed my last few posts, you'll know that Claudia Fragapane and AJ Pritchard were one of my favourite couples in the show and I was gutted that they didn't make it to the final. It wasn't just because they were amazing together and danced amazingly, I think it helped that they are pretty similar age as me (Claudia is 19, I'm 20 and AJ is 22) so I liked seeing some younger people dancing! I know that I put some of their dances in my other top 5's, but I'm going to do one anyway because most of their dances were phenomenal . 1. Jive to Hey Mickey If only there hadn't been that little slip up near the begin...

Hiya guys, It's been about over a month since Strictly has finished and I've been suffering even more post-Strictly sadness since the tour has started and I couldnt able to get any tickets so let's take a moment to cry for me... okay done! Over the last few years, Jason Gilkison and some of the other choreographers have produced some amazing group dances for the pros and I can't even think about picking a favourite, even in this series. I might to an overall one later but welcome too... Sonal's Top 5 Pro Dances of 2016... 1. Nicest Kids in Town This is probably one of my all time favourite dances and I used to watch it pretty much everyday. Even though I noticed some stuff, e.g. AJ dancing by himself *I still want to know the reasons why* it was amazing in every single way. It also helped that it was one of my favourite dances to one of my favourite songs. I love how they incorporated both the pros and the celebs in the Blackpool spectacular and it reall...
