'We were made to be awesome' // OOTD



Soooooo erm, I QUIT MY JOB OMG WHAT?!?! Yep. It wasn't for me. And I was rubbish at it. And you know a clever person would have waited until they had secured another job right? Yeah but not me... for some reason. I think I'm hoping it will kick my butt into gear into securing a job in what I want to go into. Kinda like Rachel in Friends when she quits her waitressing job so that she can get 'The Fear'? Yeah. Except this is real life and that was a pre-written tv show. But I'm sure you get the idea. And I pray to God it works because right now all I can think about is how much time I wasted just standing still when I should have been doing everything I could to keep moving forward. Especially as I know what it is I want to go into so I had no excuse really. We spend a lot of time at work/in the office so if you're doing something that doesn't suit you then you are spending a lot of your time doing something that doesn't really interest or excite you which is a very sad thing. Kinda like having to study math non-stop when all you really want to be doing is art (I need to stop with these weird analogies). So yeah, that's what is new in my life. And if anyone reading this wants to offer me a job in the writing/media/journalism region go right ahead man... ha!

Have you guys ever had to make quite a big decision?

Uni bashing & weddings // Morning Musings



I really wanted to talk about something I like to call 'uni bashing'.  I actually hate it when people talk about university saying that 'it's a waste of time' or 'you don't have to be conventional and go to uni and become a doctor/lawyer/dentist etc' or 'uni is a bad idea - don't just follow everyone else. Ok, you don't have to be conventional and go to uni and become a doctor, you can start working after school or start up your own business or do whatever it is you want to do but it doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with actually deciding to go to uni. It's the same as there being nothing wrong if someone decides not to go to university. Obviously uni has it's flaws; it's expensive, it's stressful and it doesn't set you up for the realities of the real world. At the same time however, it offers a little transition from being a kid to being an adult, it furthers your learning in a specific area and it allows you to grow as a person and learn new things about yourself. I just don't see why anyone would have to put down the other side to make their life decisions seem better, more interesting or have more integrity because it doesn't.

I have a new found interest/obsession with wedding and proposal video's on YouTube. It's kinda weird to watch the wedding of someone you don't know at all but ohhhh my goodness their so cute! I will just watch them and cry and imagine them living happily ever after. Also! The great things about wedding videos on YouTube is that you can see so many different themed and cultural weddings that you can go from traditional white wedding to a country themed one to an Indian one to a Muslim one.... Oh man I've watched too many haven't I?

This was quite a random post but I wanted to start up my 'Morning Musings's feature on this blog again as it allows me to post longer written posts like these which I really enjoy doing! I hope you have a good week ahead! Also! I decided to set up a YouTube channel in order to make more lifestyle-esque content so if you'd like to check out a new channel click here guys.
