Where Have I Been?

It feels like a million years since I put up a blog post (maybe it has to do with it actually feeling like a million years Gemma?).

A Single Girl's Guide to Valentine's Day

With Valentine's Day is fast approaching and after seeing copious amounts of advertisements filled with roses, chocolate and gushy cards intended for the one you love or really, really 'bananas' about. There is a real card out there that actually has that written on it. But whatever floats your boat and all that. 

Christmas Wish List

It's weird because I'm not really a Christmas-y person (I may or may not have been likened to the Grinch before *major eye rolls emoji* but this year for some odd reason, I'm feeling the festive spirit a little more. It could because I'm starting to feel a little more settled in my working life and I actually really like and enjoy my job. It also helps that I work with some of the nicest and creative people I've had the pleasure of meeting recently.

His Reflection

As I stared at his perfect reflection through the display window

It was like time stood still for what felt like an eternity

I was frozen in the moment

I had a thousand thoughts running through my head,

Appearing in my head and fleeting just as quickly…

“It was never meant to happen like this!”

“Why today of all days?”

As I stood there with my brain running like a Gatwick Express train

My heart started to beat faster and faster until I could hardly hear myself think

I should have walked away then and there but I continued to stare at his perfect reflection

Kind of Love

I want that all consuming kind of love,
That deep can't live with each other but can't live without each other kind of love,
Before you think I'm just another clueless romantic who has this unrealistic notion of that kind of love,
Take a moment to just listen to why I crave that kind of love. 

What are the Break Up Rules?

So I’ve recently come out of something that could only be described as the “it’s complicated” relationship statuses you use to see on Facebook in yesteryear.  

The Turtle and The Hare

So I have been a fan of SATC (some of my friends might refer to it as a broad line obsession) since I can remember. 

A Fresh Chapter

So this is my second attempt at having my own blog. My first attempt lasted about a year and that might tell you something about me as a person.  After toying with the idea I have finally worked up the courage to start a new blog. So here we are.
