Life Lessons: A Letter to Myself at 15

I've been seeing a lot of these letters lately and fancied hijacking the bandwagon to write my own! I have changed a lot since I was 15 and although I'm some sage old woman with knowledge beyond my lifetime, I do consider pretty well experienced for my age. So here goes...

Back when I was 15: dodgy eye-liner and all!

Liebster Award and Nomination

I have been nominated for the Liebster  Award by my good friend Jess Cassillas, whose blog you can check out right here.

For those of you who do not know what the Liebster Award is actually about, here's the low down...

There are just three simple rules to follow in order to participate:

• Post 11 facts about yourself


• Answer 11 questions from the person who nominated you


• Nominate 11 bloggers for the award

And that's basically it folks! So I will be participating in this here little award for the first time since starting this blog.

Who I've Become...

It is said that our personalities are formed by the age of 7. I cannot remember much about being that age, apart from wanting to make sure everyone else was okay and happy. I can remember that feeling of pride when I would help with folding the washing (pairing socks is serious business) and the swell of happiness when my parents would come back from a good parents evening. I did that, I made them happy.

Don't even know how old I was here.. Maybe around 6ish?

La Vie Française: it sucks!

I am currently sat in a class where the tutor expects ridiculously fast writing from you to the point where my hand cramps up in every class. I tried to take a picture of an image on the presentation and was told not to take it and yet there was no information on where I could find the image. No, in fact I'm meant to be a mind reader and must automatically know these things!! Obviously, how foolish of me!
