Those Moments In A Relationship!

When in a relationship there are certain points of it when you reach those moments when you can do what you want, when you want and talk about whatever you want. Here's just a few moments or things that I have done or do since Tristan and I have been dating.

Sending memes or cute videos to each other. I personally love receiving memes and random videos from Tristan. I sort of brightens my day and makes me feel a little bit of warmth inside. Especially when I haven't seen Tristan because of work.

Knowing them so well that buying birthday/Christmas present shopping is actually a ball of fun. I love buying presents for Tristan, I always go for the usual bits for him so console games and fragrances however I will always find him something that he does know he wants until he has bit.

Talk about ex's very openly. Now we have never had an issue with this since we started dating because this what is sort of bonded over when we started dating. We both went through breakups just before we met each other.

Being totally honest about money to each other. Now we are having to save for a deposit for a house we are very open about our finances.

Watching TV shows that you hate because they love it. Now I've got a feeling that Tristan will sit and watch my shit programmes even though it does not amuse him.

Being in the same room and not be having to do the same thing. Now I can sit and blog and Tristan could be watching TV or playing on his console.

We can go out and spend a day without having to spend money. Now when you first start dating you throw all the money around the place and make sure you are making sure.

You Inspired A Post.. Enjoy it.

I just need to write this to get it off my chest. I have done a blog post called, '5 Reasons Why I Won't Get Close To You'. If you haven't see it then I will leave it linked here. Now I feel like doing an open letter to one of the many people that helped to inspire that post. Just so you know I've changed the name of the person, just incase the person reads my blog. We shall call them Kate.

~

Kate you aren't perfect and neither am I, however stop bitching about me with your "best friend". Just so you know be careful who you slag me off in front of. Remember not everyone knows how to keep their mouth shut and I get told about what you say and when you say it. 

You are going to have to get use to me being around whether you like it or not. So grow a pair and deal with it. I smile and try my hardest to be civil with you for the sake of people that surround us both. Yes, I might not tend to socialise with you and I would rather spend my time with other people.


You need to stop gossiping about your "best friends" personal life as well. I really do not need to know all the in's and out's of her life. Nice to know how much you respect her feelings and her privacy, that you just share everything with every man and their dog. 

You really should stop bragging about what you are doing in your life, when I personally know your life is being lived on credit cards and loans from the everyone left, right and centre. You're trying to live the "prefect life" however you are trying to hard. 


~


Everyone has their own opinion and I fully understand everyone has the right to express it. There is a time and a place for it. I'm just expressing what I feel. 

Have you got someone you would love to write a open letter too?

My Bad Habits

I've got so many habits and some are helpful and some are bloody terrible. I can not tell you how bad some of my habits are...

I am somebody how has to be the one organising everything. I struggle with letting other people take control of things like holidays or organising something that is important. I personally have to know what's going on, what time, how much it's going to cost. Letting go is a hard thing to do. 


Double checking everything if not triple checking things. I don't have an OCD disorder or anything however, I can't just do something once I will have to do it a couple of times to make sure I've done it or that I've done it correctly. For instance I will lock my car and pull the hand, walk away from my car and make sure it's locked again by pushing the button on the key fob and every now and then I have to walk back to the car and try the handle again. 

I get into the habit of forgetting my highlighter or a board pen, which is a bad thing anyway. However I will then ask a co worker for a pen and then I will find myself putting it in my mouth. Blurghhh, I have got such a bad habit of doing. I have to keep reminding myself that it's not my pen. I'm sure most people chew pens or put them in your mouth.

Now you can call me disgusting, I do not always take my make up off before going to bed. I think this is because I get in so late at night, that I just want to go to bed. 

Falling asleep when I put a film on. I always do this, I bug Tristan to watch a film and I fall asleep within 10 minutes of putting it on. DOH! 


What are you're bad habits?

What's In My Carry On?

So for most the summer holidays and jet setting to amazing destinations are over, however I'm still to take my summer holiday. I'm flying out the country soon to the sunny destination of Spain. It's my second holiday of the year and I'm looking forward to another week away. My first getaway this year was to Dublin which was an amazing experience.



So lets get down to it.

My carry on bag is a Michael Kors inspired handbag. If I could afford the real one I would have one however this bag, I've had for around 3 years and it's still going strong. This bag is my usual handbag.  My carry on bag will hold all the stuff for Tristan and I because he doesn't take a bag. I am his bag without that sounding horrible! haha. I mean all boyfriends dump everything into their girlfriends handbags right?



What's inside it?

Passport for both Tristan and I which is housed inside this Birchbox wallet that came out either in 2016 or 2015. It's just an plastic wallet with a zip. The bright colour is helpful for when you have just got everything chucked in your bag you can find it very easily.



Listening to music is one of my favourite things to do when I'm on a flight especially when Tristan is in his sleepy mood. I don't have anyone to talk if his asleep so headphones in and then it's time to star out the window. The headphones I will be packing are my typical bog standard iPhone headphones and Tristan over the head Skullcandy headphones.

I have 2 purses. I have one for Euros and the other is for British money.

Medicine is something that I carry anyway in my day to day handbag So taking away on holiday is a must. Paracetamol, plasters, imodium - for those shit moments. Pardon the bad dad joke.

A pen. You never know when you need a pen however a pen is important. I feel like I sound like my mother.

Spare hair and clips. I will always pack spare stuff like this because of the chance that I loss any clips or that my hair band breaks.

Spare underwear and socks, now call me a bit weird but if you ever have your luggage lost I'd rather know that I have got some clean undies and socks to put on whilst they try and find my luggage.

Small Wordsearch book. I brought this one as a part of a haul back at the beginning of the year and I think it cost 99p from The Works. I do get bored very easily so having something to help pass the time is amazing. I can not spend too much starring at the book though because if the flight is a bit bumpy I will get travel sick.

Electrical items:
- My DSLR Camera
- Charger
- Phones
- Phone chargers
- Plug Adapters.

Now I will always carry my electrical items in my hand luggage because of the fact they get thrown around the place if they were in the hold. Plus if your suitcase gets lots then you know that you've still got a way of charging your phone.


I can not wait to get on my flight! Get me in that warm country!

My Ultimate Guide For A Prefect Duvet Day

You know them days when you are just feeling yucky and horrible, or just want one of those cosy days snuggled under the duvet. Yes? Well here are my must haves for those days.

Get snacks.
Whether you are ordering a pizza or a Chinese, or have emptied the shelves at the local supermarket or crisps and chocolate. You do not have to worry about the calories, it's a duvet day. Calories don't count when your having a duvet day.

Get Drinks
Now this can be what ever you want. Whether you want a bottle of rosè or a mug of hot chocolate topped with marshmallows, it's all up to you. I go for lots of fizzy drinks, I know it's bad on the calorie side of things. But as I said above calories don't count when your having a duvet day.

Appropriate Clothing
Now clothing is an important factor when it comes to having a prefect cosy day. Now I find an oversize top is the best (one of Tristan's tops). I love to wear a small pair of shorts so I don't get too warm and a pair of fluffy socks so my little feet are super cosy. 

However if you want to wear the fluffiest favourite pair of pjs or onesies that you own then you do you. 

Get your Netflix set up or a stack of DVD's at the ready.
Entertainment is absolutely key for the a perfect duvet day. Get yourself settled in for an absolute binge fest of your favourite movies or TV series. 

Light some candles.
Now I light candles on them autumn/wintery evenings to add some warmth and to make the room feel even cosier than it was before.

Blanket or duvet at the ready. 
I either have a duvet or my fleece lined blanket at the ready when it comes to being cosy. My even sometimes have both! Mega cosy.


Get a snuggle buddy. (optional)
Now I love having a good snuggle buddy for my duvet days. My snuggle buddy is Tristan however not everyone has a snuggle buddy of the human sort. Get your cat or dog snuggled up in the blankets with you. 

Now go and enjoy yourself! Let me know what your favourite duvet day entertainment is?

My Pet Peeves

Pet Peeves is something that everyone of have and face everyday. Here is a small list of my pet peeves.


People chewing with their mouths open.

People who are fake. If you don't like someone just tell them. Don't be all nice to their face and a bitchy c**t behind their back. 

People who think their children are amazing little angels and they are just the most annoying and most misbehaving children ever. 

People who never shut up talking about themselves.

Parents who don't tell their children off when they have done something wrong.

Children that talk back.
People driving so slowly in the fast lane! 

People using their phone whilst driving.

People who have to be the centre of attention.

People who don't use the indicator.

Those self entitled people! Who think they are entitled to everything and anything in life.

Those sales people who are trying to make you buy something when you are just browsing the shelves. 

Those sales people that don't leave you alone even though you got your headphones in, 

Bad parking. Mate, seriously you don't need to be parked over 2 spaces because you think your shitty "Limited Edition" Corsa is the bees knees. 


I know I said small list, haha! What are your pet peeves?
