The Festive Period

Now that Christmas is over, life goes from one extreme to the other. From everyone rushing around and excitement filling the air, to a life of boredom. We wait ages for this one special day and then it goes by in a flash.

Then you have Boxing Day, where you can go through all of your presents, but still it's not as exciting as opening them. Then you might spend some time with your family, or like me, sit watching hundreds of films whilst stuffing your face with tons of chocolate and sweets.

Then last but not least, new years eve. There isn't an awful lot to do on new years eve, some party and drink enough alcohol to quench the thirst of 100s of people, some just have a small get together with their family or friends and some just sit at home by themselves not making a big deal out of it. Whichever you prefer. The thing is, when Big Ben chimes and the new year begins, everyone starts setting themselves new years resolutions, which just about no one manages to complete. Last year I told myself to stop eating so many Haribo Tangfastics as I may have a slight obsession, well that lasted about 10 minutes. You might take it more seriously and decide to set up your own business, do well in your exams, write a bucket list or just live your dreams. One way or another, it never turns out the way you had hoped. So doesn't that make you wonder, what is the point? Something else people tend to do is set expectations for the year ahead. Each year you expect to be better than all the others, but it never seems to happen.

I hope you liked that quick post on the festive period, this is my first blog and I would really like to get into the habit of writing them maybe twice a week. Please let me know what you would like me to write about and I am a beauty addict so I may do something beauty related and I could include some pictures too, thank you.
