break ups and bad timing!

Hello everyone so I know I haven't posted a blog for a very long time and I will give you my reasons now as to why! I have just been through a really hard break up with my now ex boyfriend its been over a month now since I have become newly single im starting to get on feet now iv been drinking a lot of wine and have had a lot of tears but now its time to move on! moving on seems like the hardest thing to do but I know its for the best! I truly believe in not getting back together with your exs because it will never ever be the same as much as you think it will it wont! so I have been doing a lot of soul searching and I really feel like iv grown so much these past couple of weeks! iv been doing things going places and meeting a lot of new people!

besides getting broken up with I also lost my job! then found a new one and quit that one! I feel like im going through a mid life crises because I have no idea what I want to do where I want to go! it horrible! I don't know my purpose in life I really just want to do something worth while! Iv been doing a lot of protesting and helping out at a lot of animal shelters its really helped me a lot I recommend it to anyone who is going through a tough time! I will post a new blog later on the week about what im protesting for! I feel like im a new person in a way which is great! I will keep you guys updated with all my adventures!! I feel so much better that im blogging again I really missed it!!

Suburban Junky

The next book review I'm posting is a book called Suburban Junky by Jude Hassan. Its a biography about a young boy living in the suburbs just starting high school not having a lot of friends because he is the "new kid" but one day he becomes friends with one of the popular guys at high school.

Jude goes to his first high school party but on the way there he gets introduced to marijuana, now Jude's father is a drug consular so Jude knows exactly what it is and knows the consequences of taking the drug, but pear pressure from his friend he takes his first pull of the drug and that's where it all starts going down hill.

this book is brutally honest and really explains what drugs do to you and how bad it really gets from being on one drug and going on to the other and how bad suburban kids are and how easy it is to get drugs. Now I'm not against marijuana I know people who take it, but some people, I guess take it a bit to far.

I would defiantly recommend this book to a everyone of all ages. please let me know what you thought of it and what books you recommend me to read! have a wonderful Wednesday!

A diary a young girl

So as you know I read Eleanor and Park, and as I said in my pervious post that it was amazing it really put me in a good mood which I like from a book because reading should relax you, well that's my opinion. The next book I read which probably all of you have read in school or maybe in collage is The Diary of a young girl by Anne Frank.

I wanted to read this book because I haven't read it at school, that was the only reason. I really thought that this book was going to be a bit more, interesting I guess it really disappointed me. and I sort of rushed reading it I really did not want to know how many potatoes they had for supper, lunch and breakfast and if she said it once she said it a thousand times. Yes you eat potatoes and always complaining about not being taken seriously, she was 15 she isn't going to be taken seriously I really didn't think teenagers back then are just the same as they are now except I think more educated back then.

the booked ended how I expected it to and I really wanted it to be more involved in the war and more about her suffering and how hard it was then hearing about everything she hates about her life and her mother.

So that's my review I cant think of anything else to say about the book and nothing really amazing either it didn't put me in the most relaxing mood and I don't want that out of a book, but I read it and its out of the way.

the next book ill be reading is good so far kind of intense and honest but that's what I like on a book.
its a biography and I cant wait to tell you about it!

 

Please let me know what you thought of the book! don't be shy

Dont stop believing |Eleanor and Park

This story has a theme song, the best theme song i could think of its (dont stop believing by Journey) that would play at the end of a movie, if this was a movie. this book was and wasnt prodictable. this book was sad, happy, funny and hopeful all in one. it made me feel every emotion possibel. this was young love at its finast, this is Eleanor and Park.

Wow guys this was an amazing book this book was exactly what i expected but more i really do feel sorry for the next book im going to read, beacause honestly i would read it all over again. Eleanor and Park hated eachother but most of all they didnt want to love eachother. this was high school and Park was kind of in the popular group and Eleanor was well Eleanor was new.

i will not go further but i will say this. its something you can completley relate to, well i definatly can. oh and the ending the ending was perfect.

I hope you all enjoyed my review cause i really liked writting it

i wont say what im reading next but what il say is that its something i didnt get

to read at school.

Started reading again

So sometimes I read like 4 books in the period of 2 months and I love them all to bits! but then I go through a bit of a rough patch finding a book to read cause none of them compare to the books iv previously read, or I start reading a book and it wasn't what I expected to be.

 

I have finally come out of my book reading funk and found a really awesome book I am reading at the moment I'm half way through and just got to that part of a story where you really start enjoying the characters and you start making pictures in your head imagining what they look like.

 

The book I'm reading is called Eleanor and park by Rainbow Rowell I don't know if that is the persons real name or what?? but its a great book so far such an easy read its not romantic in a way that its all lovey which bores me to death, but quirky and funny.

 

You just want to carry on reading it and I will do a review soon on it so don't go reading it yet but all I can say about it now is that its sweet and funny and its based in the 80s which I love from reading the perks of being a wall flower which was actually based in the early 90s but still a great book.

 

here is a picture of the book I am reading hope you will enjoy it as much as I do! comment below of any other books you think id enjoy! and have an amazing day!

 

 

I love the cover!!

 

bye

 

remember to follow I would love you for that!! :)

 

 

Birthday suprises

So yesterday (Monday) was my boyfriend Neil's birthday and I decided to take him on a little holiday to Port Alfred this past weekend. He was completely surprised and so happy that I had done this for him I booked a self catering suit right on the beach for two nights packed the bags got food and put everything in the car before he got home. I told him to get dressed and I put him in the car and started driving. I really thought he would of caught on where we were going but I ended up telling him on the way cause I needed help with the directions seeing as I haven't been to Port Alfred in a long time!

A scary amazing adventure

So I have a huge opportunity in my company that I have made happen by working hard and showing my boss she can trust me with this big task to take a tender document to Durban harbour by myself, get a taxi get there sign, hand it in and come home!

Now maybe to some of you it seems like nothing but because I am only 20 and starting out my working career this is a big thing or me to do, yes I have been on an airplane by myself but not like this having to find my way by myself. the last time iv been to Durban I was 9 years old so this is an amazingly scary adventure!! to prove to myself and others that I can do things like this because this is the type of thing I want to do. have an opportunity to go places but with my company its cheaper that way as well.

so here are some pictures of were ill be going to drop this very important document at! honestly looking at this places doesn't make me feel like getting on a plane back to my small little town

 

this is Durban harbour.

 

so watch this space everyone

 

Bye!
