2018 !


I cannot believe it is 2018 already but I hope people are enjoying the year so far. I wasn't going to do a post about my resolutions, goals, aims whatever you want to call them but I have really enjoyed reading other peoples so I decided to do my only little list of things I want to do this year.

FOMO

I suffer from the fear of missing out so much and this year I want to kick that feeling because it has been getting me down too much recently and I just get depressed about why I can't do this or that because I have friends who get to do amazing things and I want to do it too. I need to learn to not give a shit basically because I have different circumstances to others and I have different priorities, I may eventually do the things they are experiencing all I might never do it. I need to lean this doesn't matter life is not a competition of trying to outdo each other. I am lucky in what I can do and I should think about the amazing things I am doing and have planned to do. For example this year I was invited by a friend to go to Disneyland Paris in June for a week but I am not because instead I am going to Corfu for 10 days in August instead and that will be incredible but I told myself Disney will always be there and I will never get the chance to go to Corfu again because life gets really serious. So yeah that is my aim just stop having FOMO it doesn't matter.

Blog

So I have been writing this blog for about two years and I have fallen out of love with it at some points and also I changed to a full time job last year which takes up my time now so that is why posts on here have been very sporadic. I want to make an effort to talk about different things and I have some things planned that are blog worthy and I cannot wait to share. As usual it will be a mix of mainly Disney and other things that I am doing and me documenting various things. I don't look at numbers or anything like that I just upload and people can read if they want.

Driving

In a nutshell I need to learn to drive now, I don't really want to but now I am getting a bit fed up of my parents having to chauffeur me around like to work and back and I think my life would just be so much easier if I could drive. So now I've written it down and put it out there I might actually have a go and book a lesson. Also I really want a Fiat 500 so I can't have one if I cannot drive. 

Move Out

Another big change I hope can happen this year is that I can move out of home. Me and Darren want to live together and I think this year is finally the year we save up and do that. We want either a one or two bedroom flat in Birmingham depending on what we can find compared to our budget. I have already started to collect some homeware stuff for when we move out so we don't have to worry about small niggly things. Yes these things are Disney themed but I am not sharing anything until we have moved and I can show them in there full glory.

Time

I need to manage my time a lot better than I already do, I work full time and that includes some Saturdays which is fine but I have been a bit too accommodating to others recently and need to think about myself and spending time with my family and with Darren a lot more and getting things done that need to be done. I also need to think about myself and giving myself some headspace where I can take a step back and relax.

I hope that was interesting, I had a good 2017 and I hope 2018 will be good as well.

Until next time

Review- Everybody’s Talking About Jamie Tour

This weekend I went and watched the tour cast of Everybody’s Talking About Jamie at the Wolverhampton Grand Theatre. I’ve not seen this show before but it has been on my list for a long time. I’d only heard one or two songs before so I was going in with no ideas of what it was like and I found it very enjoyable. Background This is based on the true story of 16 year old Jamie New who dreams of being a drag queen as well as wearing a dress to his prom. Throughout the show we see Jamie go through a journey of self discovery which has so many highs and lows. Along the way we meet people who are and aren’t supportive of his dream and how much prejudice he has to contend with. The show first opened on the West End in 2017 and is currently on its second UK tour. Cast The cast of this show were fabulous, unfortunately didn't get to see Ivano Turco play Jamie, Finton Flynn was incredible in those red heels. He portrayed the emotion of playing Jamie perfectly as well showing the young silly ...

Carrie Hope Fletcher Book Signing

Hey Guys On Monday 12th September I attended Carrie Hope Fletcher's book signing for her fiction book On The Other Side at the Glee Club in Birmingham. This is the second time I have met Carrie and once again she was an absolute pleasure to listen too. I attended this event on my own, and I must stay that I think the Glee Club and the Waterstones team planned and hosted the event so well considering there was 350 people that turned up to this event and each one of those people had bought a ticket and a book. We were seated quite early as doors opened at 6 and I was in a seat by 6:30 with the event starting at 7, however there were people who turned up 10 minutes before the event and had to stand up because of all the seats that were taken which gives you an idea of how many people attended this event. Before the signing of the actual books, there was a 40 minute question and answer session with a representative from Waterstones asking Carrie questions about her book, being...

Review: Beauty and the Beast Musical

In March, me and two of my friends went to see Disney’s Beauty and the Beast at the Birmingham Hippodrome. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favourite Disney films and I was excited to see what this interpretation had in stall. The fairy-tale was first adapted into the much-loved Disney animated film in 1991 and became a Broadway production in 1993. The show opens with the familiar voice of Angela Lansbury and the enchanting music that we all recognise and with the help of the beautiful rose projection we are transported into the magic. Director Matt West leaves the story exactly how it is, only adding extra bits of comedy here and there which the audience engage with easily. The cast all suit their characters and portray them to perfection. Grace Swaby- Moore, understudy to Courtney Stapleton, was the embodiment of Belle, she captured the innocence of the character and belted the songs to perfection. Shaq Taylor portrayed the Beast will emotion and ferocity when needed. His voice ...
