Our week in Toronto is over. In my last post I said coming to Toronto was like waking up. Well, leaving feels like dying...and going to hell. That sounds harsh, but trust me, I have a way with words and that happens to be the best way to describe my feelings right now. First, I was … Continue reading Post-Toronto
Making Things Happen
Things have been happening and I've been absent. So much for writing my "two posts a week". Sorry. BUT I have news. Things are happening. The first few posts I ever posted on this blog were to do with acting. I feel like not a lot of people know this about me, but I'm into acting. … Continue reading Making Things Happen
The Female of the Species
Triggers: Rape No spoilers. I picked this book up because of its cover. I bought it because of the blurb. I finished it in the span of twenty-four hours because it was fucking amazing. (Side note: If the word "fucking" in that last sentence offended you, skip the book.) The Female of the Species by … Continue reading The Female of the Species
Faves: January 2017
To be honest, the way my year has started has been probably one of the worst starts to a year I can remember. Sorry I keep disappearing. I quit my job this week and it took a lot out of me. Something about not having a regular like that, no job or school and not … Continue reading Faves: January 2017
All My Friends Are Superheroes
No Spoilers. In my last year of university, my dissertation tutor wanted me to read this book. While it sounded interesting enough, the only way I could get a copy was by buying it online and I was trying not to buy any books because my suitcase was heavy enough as it was. I think … Continue reading All My Friends Are Superheroes
Gymming
I joined a gym today. When it comes to working out...I don't. So I started small and hardly did anything and I still barely made it down the stairs without falling over because my legs were feeling wobbly. How embarrassing. I'll be back tomorrow. The challenge with gymming is persistence. I'm going to have to keep … Continue reading Gymming
On Top of That
Despite the fact that I've only written a single post since the beginning of this month, people have kept subscribing to my blog. I appreciate the vote of confidence, and I suppose I should start writing again to make your loyalty worthwhile. In case you haven't guessed from the prolonged and unforgivable absence (I have a … Continue reading On Top of That
Red Queen
No Spoilers. I've been following Victoria Aveyard on Twitter for a while now. While I've found her book blurb intriguing enough, I was never in any rush to read it. It sounded unoriginal to me. A world where some people have silver blood and superpowers, and the rest are just plain, red-blooded humans who are seen … Continue reading Red Queen
Graduation Day
Today was the day of my graduation ceremony. I missed it. One hazard of going to university in another country. Here's to the friends I made by accident or by design, in class, commons, and societies, instantly or over time. Here's to the sleepovers, and sleepless library nights. Here's to Winchester, it's Cathedral, and … Continue reading Graduation Day
A Fierce and Subtle Poison
Mild Spoilers at the end. I'll let you know. A Fierce and Subtle Poison, I am happy to say, is as good a book as it's cover. I took a chance on this one, having never heard of it before. The cover told me the bare minimum about the book, but the first sentence of … Continue reading A Fierce and Subtle Poison
