August 2020 Reflection: Ramblings and Recommendations

Image
Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. This post is basically just going to be me talking about how my month went (in the ‘ramblings’ part) and all the things that I have been loving this month (in the ‘recommendations’ part). This is actually my second monthly reflection- I did one last month so, if you’re interested, click here . I’m trying to make these posts really relaxed and casual so, if you like the more chatty posts, this post is for you. Enjoy! Ramblings So, this was the last month of summer and I’m not too sure how I feel about it. I’m starting school online this Tuesday and, honestly, I feel prepared enough. This summer was a weird one for obvious reasons so I, as well as all of my friends, didn’t feel as if we had one. Usually there is a definitive break between the school years because of the summer holidays but we didn’t really have that this year. It just feels like one year is blending into another. But, I’ve had plenty of time to get my things together for back to scho...

Work With Me #3: Back To School Prep Edition

Image
  Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. I’m starting online school in the next couple of weeks so I’ve been trying to get into a routine and make all the notes I didn’t make last year. This week, though, I’ve been in a bit of a slump, so I thought that writing up another work with me would be a great way to force me into being productive. And, it automatically gives me a post to publish haha. I quite like reading these blog posts/watching these YouTube videos as it somehow motivates me to be more productive. I’m hoping it’ll do the same for you guys if you were also having a bit of a meh week. Enjoy! 7.45 - 8.25: Breakfast I woke up this morning at around 7.45 which is a little bit later than I wanted to but it’s all good. I had some breakfast and watched an episode of Vampire Diaries: my new obsession. I’m like 2 episodes into the second season and it’s very addictive! 8.25 - 8.40: Get ready After breakfast, I went and brushed my teeth, did my skin care routine and did my hair (a ...

My Wish List 2020

Image
Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. I’m the type of person who goes on Amazon, eBay or any online shopping/clothing website just to look around- even if I don’t plan on buying anything. But whenever my birthday comes around, or when a friend or relative asks if I would like anything, my mind always goes completely blank. So, in this post, I’m going to be listing all the things that are on my wish list. Some of these things are more affordable and realistic than others, but some are quite expensive. I’m not saying I’ll get every single thing on this list by next week but, whenever I want to treat myself, or when it’s my birthday again, I can come back to this list. If you want some inspiration for your wishlist, or if you want to buy a present for someone else, this post is for you. Enjoy! Airpods So, we’re starting with an expensive, unrealistic one haha. If you read my July recommendations you would know that I received an iPhone for my birthday (which I am so grateful for). I would...

Advice Post #3: How To Have More Body Confidence

Image
Hi everyone! Welcome back to my blog. This post is going to be about a topic that hits quite close to home. I’ll be trying to give you all advice on how to have more confidence about the way you look and how to lessen the insecurities you have about your figure or physical features. Becoming fully self-confident is a journey, and feeling happier about your body is a huge part of becoming a confident person. When I say confident, I don’t mean loud, assertive and overbearing. Being self-confident means being firmly stood on your beliefs and not always overthinking/second-guessing yourself. It means knowing your worth. Sounds amazing, right? Please note that I’m not a professional and if you’re struggling with eating disorders or anything else that roots from insecurities, please go see one. There is no shame in doing so. Also, do not take my advice over a professional’s. I won’t be talking about my personal experience and weight, figures etc.: it will literally just be advice as I don’t ...
