I haven't blogged in a while.. Since November in fact. Over the past few weeks, I kept going to write various posts about various different things and was struck with a severe case of writers block. I felt like I was writing about irrelevant nonsense (which I probably was), that nobody would care about. Thankfully, my friend rightly persuaded me to not be so paranoid or self conscious and to just write, so that is what I am doing. I can't expect everyone to like every single blog post I upload (or any for that matter) and it would be arrogant of me to think you all would. So, excuse my reserved nature, this time I promise I am back for good (Take That style). I'm finding it hard to decide where to begin... Since last time we have had Christmas, New Year, new starts and severe obsession with Gossip Girl.
Let's take it from the top and go in chronological order.
Christmas this year consisted of food, food, games, food, more food and a few Malibu and pineapple's. It was the best! Throughout the whole christmas period I laughed until my tummy hurt and appreciated time with the people who mean the most to me. Santa brought me clothes, tons of clothes, a selfie stick and a friend (purse) for Molly..... I don't think I have mentioned Molly before, she deserves a whole blog post if I haven't, she is my mulberry bag and yes I have named her and yes I love her. My Christmas actives started with a works party to Circus in Covent Garden, to anyone that hasn't been I recommend it, it was super fun, we had lovely cocktails and food and amazing circus acts performed during dinner! It also turns into a club after which plays 80's music... What more could you ask for after a few too many glasses of bubbles? This year for our girls christmas night out we went to AirHop, which was just the most fun couple of hours ever!!!!! It's a trampoline world, I don't even think it is necessary to say anymore. The videos we took will forever entertain me. Why would anyone not want to go to a room with trampolines on all over the floor and walls? Christmas day and Boxing day always involves fun, quality family time and this year did not disappoint, we played games, ate more food, drunk more drink and just enjoyed each others company.

There is always a dreaded lull between Christmas and New Year, so I always try to keep busy with friends and family and day trips. This year the gap flew by and before I knew it, it was time for the countdown and the song that nobody knows but everybody loves (Auld Lang Syne - I bet the tune is in your head now isn't it). I spent my New Years eve in a pub with friends and had a lovely evening! Prior to the evening, I had a very emotional and sad day so I was happy to have a few drinks and dance......

New Years eve day - The time finally came where I had to say goodbye to my job at the salon and move on and focus on my career in the fashion journalism industry. I get a lump in my throat thinking about it now, as mentioned before I worked at the salon for 6 and a bit years and made best friends out of work colleagues and am devastated to not be part of the dream team anymore!! However, I was offered an incredible opportunity to intern for 3 months back at Harrods Magazine (SCREAM), which I simply could not turn down! My official title is a "Tempory junior fashion assistant" and so far I am loving every single minute of it, including, dare I say it, the commute where I get to have a little 30 minute snooze on the over ground and then read my Kindle on the underground! I am in a very good place at the moment and am finally appreciating my weekends!

One last thing for tonight, I need to discuss/ write about Gossip Girl.
This blog post would be incomplete if I didn't mention it just a little bit. I have netflix (I am so behind times I know) and have started Gossip Girl from the beginning and am literally obsessed, I watch it near enough every night before sleep and am gripped! Why can't I look like Serena, who is Gossip Girl, will Chuck Bass ever not be a sleaze, will Serna and Dan get back together? I have so many questions that need to be answered so I suppose I better go and watch an episode before bed.....
Xoxo
It feels good to be back blogging. Next time I will write about upcoming trips, the organised chaos of the fashion cupboard and maybe a little bit about Molly the mulberry.
