Blogtober #6 10 Things You'd Tell Yourself When You Started Blogging

1. Keep to it, do it everyday if you want.

2. It does not matter who is reading it, don't hide your feelings because certain people are reading it.

3. Don't worry if your friends think you're crazy, so be it, just because they cannot be bothered.

4. More pictures, you bought a camera for a reason, so use it!

5. Why don't you learn web design?

6. That background sure is ugly, it doesn't matter that he made it for you, you can change it if you want.

7. Don't always blog your unhappy feelings, you are happy most of the time.

8. It's also okay if you don't feel like blogging, don't force yourself to pump them out.

9. Comment and like others, you enjoy them so why don't you comment?

10. Take time to read over your mistakes.

Blogtober #5 Your Fall Bucket List

So I haven't really thought about this one yet. There is very little time for me to actually accomplish anything new.

So on my "fall" bucket list, which I assume will end around the end of November time, 

1. I will try to visit at least one of my friends at another University once.

2. Enjoy spending time with my friends as much as possible for this last year.

3. Kick boxing every week, without fail.

4. Go to the teashop in Brighton that everybody raves about (cough, Zoella & other youtubers, cough)

5. High Tea once more!

For now I think that will be it, there isn't a lot you can accomplish in just over a month, especially as a final year University student!

Blogtober #4. Favourite photo uploaded from Instagram. 

This would probably have to be a recent post, due to my older posts probably not having much photographic skill, plus me not caring very much about the appearance. 

This is an image uploaded only 2 months ago, during my time in Korea. This image reminds me of the excitement and happiness I felt whilst in Korea, as well as depicting my growth. To me it shows that despite my "loneliness" I am not lonely, I have and was with a friend. The comments on the image also add a little flair, and I love that my family are there to make me laugh. It is also if I say so myself quite a good angle. The wall was also so beautiful and so cute. 

Thus this has become my favourite instagram on my account, so far.

Blogtober #3, One thing you cannot live without. So a thing, an object, a material possession. I would probably say minus the essentials e.g. water, is a book of paper. I mean it would be the only thing where you could actually have it and be able to do something with it without ANYTHING ELSE. Sure a computer would be fun, but without electricity you will not be able to use it. Also without a router you will not have the ability to go on the computer... so paper? People found a way to use things in the wild to write so I am sure I will find something to use. Besides this there is a lot of use with paper, wiping your bum being one of them haha. But also you can do origami, keeping you entertained but also being an essential. 

What would you not be able to live without? 

Be it living without it without ANYTHING else created or what in your opinion is ESSENTIAL to your daily life now?

Blogtober #2

Okay, so I have not exactly been keeping up with Blogtober, due to University commitments. I have been so busy just doing some reading, trying to get back into schedule as well as preparing for the future and trying my hand at a couple of new things, at the same time TRYING to stay social and see my friends and family. Here I am updating all in one. So here is #2. 

Dream job when you were little/What is it now?

]I was only a little girl, and all little girls did were dream right? I was always one of those that wanted to a singer, a little dancer or in a dance group. I was the S Club 7 generation that wanted to be a part of the S Club Juniors. Me and my cousins used to dress up in the same outfits and did little performances for our parents, forcing them to watch us dance and sing badly. 

When you grow up you soon realise to become one of these you actually need to have talent, and a little bit of passion and actually wanting to be in the spotlight.

As I have grown up these dreams have changed dramatically. First of all I hate being in the spotlight, so get me behind the curtains as quickly as possible. At the moment I do not have a dream job, there is no job which is that enticing to me that I believe that it is my "dream". Although becoming a full time blogger would be extremely fun and exciting as I enjoy travelling a lot, so travelling blogging, meeting new people would be a dream job I guess. 

What was your dream job and what is it now?

It is funny how much your personality changes as you grow up, and with personality changes come a change of dreams and aspirations too. 

Blogtober #1

The idea is from www.heleneinbetween.com and she has begun a month of blogging everyday. A different theme created for everyday. The 1st on the list for Day 1 is "If you'd won the lottery you'd"

So to begin, If I were to win the lottery I think I would invest 90% of it, only because I am young. I can do what I can now with very little money. I can travel the world and stay at hostels, no matter how much money I have, to travel to world it is always better to see it through places where you wouldn't want to stay. If you were in a hotel, with a lovely pool, hot tub, restaurants selling gourmet food you may as well have stayed at home. If you are to see another country, see it in all its glory spend as little money as possible staying in a sub par hotel/hostel and only go home when you need that 8hrs sleep. So as I am travelling spending that little amount of money I will be making money at the same time. That is the beauty of investment. I have been raised in a chinese household, don't blame me, they love to talk about money and investment. 

So that is basically it, travel and invest. 

If anybody sees this please give it a go, I would really like to delve into peoples minds and see what they would do once they have won the lottery.

Korea Day 7

My final day consisted of a little bit of rest and just some korean bbQ with my host family. However, as it was the last day I kept photos to a minimum, just spending time hanging out with the new friends I made and the family. Below are some lovely pictures they left on my phone so I'll "never forget them" haha, I miss these three already!

So nice to create a bond with these three so quickly because they are all so nice and genuine and I wish them all the best in their year abroad in Korea! I have been following up their tweets/facebook posts/instagrams and I can assure you they are having a blast.

This perfectly depicts our time together in Seoul, just laughing at everything and anything and at any inappropriate moment. 

For the rest of the evening before my departure we played a traditional korean game with all the other guests. This game was so simple yet so difficult to master. You never know how difficult it is to speak and understand another language until you start having to explain a game/understanding game rules.

It is safe to say I helped my "korean team" win, because I was the only English person I had to be in the Korean team, but I did not mind one bit! It meant I was able to play with korean game veterans!

As the plane was landing into HK I realised I had come to the end of my journey. My internship and break in Korea was over. I was going back home. During this long period away from home I had many realisations and had learnt a lot of lessons. I did in a cliche way become a different person, a better one. One that was now more aware of myself and ready to take on the real world with more confidence. Through an internship and travelling alone it taught me we all have a voice. It is a voice that nobody can control but you, say whatever you want to say. If somebody does not agree, let them voice their opinion too. But it does not mean they are right. So speak, speak up and don't be scared of your voice.

And so that was the end of my journey. My life at home was about to begin again. Excited was not the right word because I was more than excited to be away from the heat, get in my car, have some freedom and enjoy some English food.
