January made me quiet!

Hiya Guys, 

I have procrastinated writing a post, which is the reason for lack of mid week posts and Music Friday posts and I have decided that it is the concept of January that's done it! 

I am currently writing this to the High School Musical soundtrack and I think that shows how my January has gone and I think it's the same for everyone, isn't it? I mean it's the first month of the new year and everyone is either back to work, household duties or education and it seems so suckish but we fight through it with tiredness or even a new surge of energy.

I seem to fit into the first category as I have arrived to university to be met with 3 topics to do reading for, another one that makes me have to read a book each week and a presentation for pretty much all of my topics. However, I joined the gym so I guess that needed a lot of energy because I am pretty much lazy as hell.

But why is it the case? Why is January one of the most hated months? Why do we want this month to be over ASAP?

I think it's probably a lot to do with the fact that most of us had so long off at Christmas (I had 3 weeks but my family had 2) and the idea of routine scares us because everyone basically loses track of time during the festive season. It goes from going to bed at a late hour and waking up even later, to having to go to bed early and getting up when it is still pitch black which adds to the bad aura you get.

Also, I think the general environment around us contributes to this post- Christmas blues. If you think about it, for the entire month of December up to the 6th January, the streets are filled with oddly coloured lights, brightly coloured decorations and the smell of Christmas food. Your house is normally filled with fancy and glittery Christmas cards dotted around the room, festive music on the television and that huge Christmas tree that has no particular colour scheme. Now that everything is taken down, everything just goes back to normal.

So hopefully this post means I am going to be a lot more active on here but it might have to wait until February comes as I have a lot more exciting things happening.

Thats all for now my dears,
See you soon

WWE! A New Era?

Hiya Guys, I really hope that this week's blog title is obvious to those of you who understand and will most likely read this post! I am a big WWE fan and, before you say 'oh it's fake', well I do know that but I'd like to also say that Marvel and DC and all those films are also fake. So, these last few weeks made history in WWE by having the Brand Split of RAW and Smackdown and making them both live.  Here is my overview of the Draft last week as well as the first week of the so-called 'new era.' Draft Day I will be honest and say that Draft Day was a huge disappointment in terms of the draft itself and the way it was organised. It seemed extremely lackluster and rushed in comparison to the other years and seemed to be very much focused on the Managers of each of the companies (Stephanie/ Mick Foley and Shane/ Daniel Bryan) instead of the superstars. However, when it comes to the picks itself, I was pleasantly surprised and happy. I think...

My Strictly favourites for this year!

Hiya guys, Hasn't the first few episodes of Strictly been amazing and shocking, in terms of talent and the results (book Tameka leaving). I don't remember a year where so many of the contestants are this talented so early because even Ed Balls isn't as bad as people like John Sargeant or Greg Wallace. Before I start, special shoutout to Judge Rinder who literally entertains me every week and Claudia who proves that us short people can do whatever we want. So, what does a new series of SCD call for... oh yeah a list of my favourite's who I think have a proper shot of winning the glitterball this year. I am sorry for the size of the list, they're all too good to just pick a few! LETS GOOOO... 1. Danny Mac and Oti Mabuse I loved Danny in Hollyoaks so I was mega excited when it came up that he was coming on the show and by God he did not disappoint me. I was also thrilled when he was paired with Oti who is absolutely magnificent but couldn't show...

Help! Essays are due!

Hiya guys, This week is another attempt at helping you gorgeous people to learn things through my mistakes. It is that time of the year and whether you've already given in essays or have some to give in, everyone will need help at some point. Please don't just take my word for it as I am only a first year university student and cannot help with content or structure . However, here are just a few points that I wish I'd known when I started doing essays and things that I do now that really help my essay writing process. Essay's, whether they be for a humanities or a science subject, have a core aim and that is too write about a specific topic to show your understanding and ability to write coherently and for a purpose so hopefully this can be partly useful to everyone. 1. Once you've chosen a question, step back and think about what it is asking Get the question and analyse it. What is the question word? Is it 'why, what, to what extent,' and figur...
