Independence is a controversial topic for us Scots. Debates on freedom, individuality, the future of a nation. But today I’ve been reflecting on a different kind of independence, my own independence. Do you ever wish you were still 5 years old and someone could take care of everything for you without you having to liftContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Independence”

A Little Bit About…Procrastination
How many times have you convinced yourself “it’s okay” that you didn’t manage to do something because of how busy you were? I know I have, multiple times. So much so in fact, that I’m starting to realise that procrastination is an art I’ve fine-tuned over the years. But one of the most common mistakesContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Procrastination”
A Little Bit About…Personal Space
Personal Space is a funny concept isn’t it? It’s one of those unwritten rules in life. Were any of you ever taught it in a classroom, or sat down by your parents and told about it? I didn’t think so, because me neither. Yet somehow we grow up knowing what’s acceptable and what’s not whenContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Personal Space”
A Little Bit About…Beauty Regimes (while in lockdown)
Ironically my very first part time job was in a popular high street health and beauty store within the make-up and fragrance section. Now I say that is ironic, purely because I myself am prone to a beauty fail or two (or 1,782) and the fact that I was advising the general public on “beauty”Continue reading “A Little Bit About…Beauty Regimes (while in lockdown)”
A Little Bit About…Mums
I’m at a funny stage in life whereby some of my cousins and my best friends are mums to their own children, meanwhile I still ask my mum to phone the dentist for me when I need an appointment (anyone else in that boat? I guess I’m learning we never really grow out of that,Continue reading “A Little Bit About…Mums”
A Little Bit About…Cleaning
For those of you that know me well, you’ll know that organising is not my forte. Don’t get me wrong, I can be organised when I want to be, but why deny it when the majority of the time I find myself chasing my tail. Do I pack the hour before going to the airport?Continue reading “A Little Bit About…Cleaning”
A Little Bit About…Driving
I have a love hate relationship with driving, and cars in general I guess. Yet despite being a stickler for mixing up 1st gear and reverse when sitting at traffic lights (oops), I somehow managed to pass my driving test first time around at the ripe young age of 17. It seemed to go downhillContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Driving”
A Little Bit About…The Colour Yellow
There’s always something you forget when you’re going on a trip, isn’t there? Recently, I forgot my headphones – not the worst case scenario, but frustrating nonetheless. On the hunt for some new ones in the limited array of airport shops (side note – why do I always browse airport shops as if there’s goingContinue reading “A Little Bit About…The Colour Yellow”
A Little Bit About…Perspective
You know the usual Friday morning office chat, where everyone arrives in a good mood since it’s almost the weekend, but no one quite has the energy to kick start those last 7 hours of work yet? It’s not the normal Monday, “how was your weekend?”, or the mid-week classics about “how the kids areContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Perspective”
A Little Bit About…Hot Dogs
We all have our guilty pleasures when it comes to snacking, right? Please say yes and make me feel less guilty about my all too frequent snack attacks! Weirdly, after eating it 3 times a week at the tapas bar beneath my flat on my year abroad in Spain, one of my favourites is chopped-upContinue reading “A Little Bit About…Hot Dogs”
