Hello, so before I begin, I am just going to warn you all that this post is going to mention topics which may be triggering to some readers. These includes topics relating to childhood trauma and mental illness. Now while I am not going to go into depth, if you are likely to find content relating toContinue reading “Trauma Core”

I’m Back!!!
Hello, so after a longer than anticipated break, I have decided to finally return to this blog. Long story short, I have been pretty busy over the past few months, and while this has been the case in the past, I found that keeping up with this blog was getting a bit much for me while I was firstly working full time during the summer, andContinue reading “I’m Back!!!”
My Problem with Grammar Schools
Whilst I have done research for this post, a lot of the commentary from this consists of my own views and experiences. Therefore, I decided to provide a bit of background information. So, I attended two grammar schools. One being throughout secondary school, and the other being during sixth form. Now before I allow myself to slag off both these places,Continue reading “My Problem with Grammar Schools”
The Problem With Y2K Fashion
I have noticed that when I talk about Y2k fashion, often people do not know what I am on about. Even though it is currently all over the internet! However, this said, most people who know about it are going to have to have at least some remote interest in fashion. Plus, I reckon thatContinue reading “The Problem With Y2K Fashion”
Why you don’t have to be “That Girl”
Imagine this. You are in your late teens/early twenties, and for the first time in forever, you have a little bit of time for yourself. You may not know it, but you really do value this time. However, you do not have the energy or motivation to go for a walk, pick up a book or paint.Continue reading “Why you don’t have to be “That Girl””
Is Woke Culture as bad as we think it is?
Right, so I am going to begin this post in a slightly different way by apologising for the fact that some of the research for this post has come from sources with, shall I say, views of a slightly different political slant to my own. And I would think different to a lot of youContinue reading “Is Woke Culture as bad as we think it is?”
Update-12/07/21
Hello, I know that when you are reading this it will no longer be the 12th, but as this is the day I am writing this, I have decided to keep the date the same! First of all, I know this is the first update in a long time. In fact I know I haven’tContinue reading “Update-12/07/21”
Why Diet Culture is so Damaging!
Perhaps people of all shapes and sizes pop into your head when you think about a “healthy” person. They’re reasonably happy, they eat a balanced diet, don’t drink (too) much alcohol and they probably have a fairly active lifestyle. Alternatively however, we may subconsciously think of someone who is quite small. Or should I sayContinue reading “Why Diet Culture is so Damaging!”
Rainbow Capitalism
Each month seems to resemble something doesn’t it. It is no longer just Christmas that gets spoken about, often more than three months leading up to december, while now it is not even enough that mothers day, Halloween and Valentines day are hugely celebrated, or rather commercialized. Instead, as many of you are aware, thereContinue reading “Rainbow Capitalism”
What’s Problematic About School Dresscodes?
It makes sense doesn’t it. For there to be something for children to wear, when they are incapable of choosing something that looks half decent and appropriate themselves. Even if that fails, and they somehow manage to make their outfit, or rather “uniform”, look inappropriate; then at least restrictions can be put on what theyContinue reading “What’s Problematic About School Dresscodes?”
