A bit about me and a mini Q&A!

So after some great feedback from my previous blog I thought it was about time to do a little get to know me and Q&A!!

So in the week I went over to my Instagram and posted a box for“Ask a question for my blogs Q&A” and the results were not disappointing!

I had a whole variety of questions and they were so hard to chose from but I chose 5 and noted down the rest for sometime in the future.

The first question I chose was “How do I look after myself and practice self care?”

So one of the main things I do for my own self care and looking after myself is trying to get a good night sleep. Obviously, the same with everyone, some nights are better than others. I’m also a bit of a sucker for a nap even though they sometimes make me feel more crappy when I wake up and often leaves me with a horrible headache.

The next thing I do, which probably I don‘t do as much as I should but I’m a bit of a fan of a face and eye mask. I normally chose to do this during the weekend instead of a weekday purely because I’m so tired in the week and honestly, I just can’t be bothered haha!

But I really do find this so relaxing and makes my skin feel great, they make my bags under my eyes disappear...for a little while and just lets me have some me time.

Finally, which is one hundred percent my favourite thing, all day everyday is a hot, relaxing, bubble bath which I’m sure is popular with a lot of people...especially this time of year!

I love it boiling hot and I even sometimes treat myself to a bath bomb! I either put on my favourite album on on Spotify, a playlist on shuffle or at the moment I’m especially enjoying listening to podcasts. My current faves are “The Secrets Out“ by Alfie Deyes, “The Fellas Podcast” with Burnt Chip and Calfreezy and last but not least “Shagged, Married , Anonoyed” By Chris and Rosie Ramsey.

There’s probably so many more things I do on a daily basis which I probably don’t even think about!

The second question I got asked the most was “Why did you start a blog??”

So I’ve always wanted to start a blog for a few years now and I wrote some smaller ones a few years back but got bored quickly and lost thoughts and topics but I’ve gradually thought up ideas and am actually excited about proceeding with it. I’ve always been that person that has enjoyed writing stories and things especially when I was younger and at school but nothing really came from that.

For a while now I've been reading others blogs and that is what has helped really spark my interest of writing again so what not start a blog 💁🏼‍♀️

Question 3: Who/ whats inspires me?

When I think of people who influence me, I can't just put my finger on one person. I think certain things in people is what really inspires me. Things like how kind someone can be, how people express themselves, people's humour and personality, their confidence and the way they are with others.

So many things add up to what inspires me so it really is hard to chose just that one person.

If I'm completely honest, I am a person that watches a lot of YouTube! This is definitely one thing that helps me look up to people and really see the true side of the internet world and how others are living their lives.

One YouTuber I really do look up to and watch all the time is currently 'Mark Ferris'. He makes me laugh all the time, he's so positive and just seems like such a down to earth person who has a great look on the world.

Question 4: What does inner beauty mean to you?

Inner beauty to me means always being kind and caring towards others. This could mean face-to-face, over the phone or even just online.

It also means to me being accepting and understanding of others. Being able to listen and being empathetic towards people and just being the best possible person you can be inside and out.

Question 5: If you could talk or say something to your teenage self what would it be?

I would say 'don't wish school away' it's mad think of how close I was with people and now don't even hear from...like ever!

I would also say...don't think someone is happy, loyal and faithful as you think people let you down, people play you and it can really destroy you especially at such a young age.

The other thing I would say is study hard and concentrate on what you really want to do make sure you make the right ideas and right decisions when it comes to sixth form, college and university and then leading onto work.

That is the last queation for this blog but I got so many other great ones that I have put aside for another time!

Hope you enjoy this and lets you learn a little more about me!
