Hellu again.  
I have the feeling I wasn’t very clear or helpful in my first post as to what this blog is about. So let’s give this another go.
This is going to be a space for me to be creative. A few years ago I discovered my joy of writing but didn’t really have an outlet for it. Creativity has definitely been lacking in my life the past few years and it’s something I want to change. I hope this will motivate me to not only write but be creative in other ways.
It is also a place for me to voice my opinion. I have always been insecure about saying my opinion (which is going to make this experience very interesting) or how I feel. At school I’d try to melt into my chair when debates were going on. Occasionally I’d give it a go but I’d never feel good about it after. Sadly it wasn’t just in the classroom where I felt uncomfortable saying my thoughts out loud, it’s also around friends and family. It’s normal to tell your friends about your day, however, insignificant the events may have been. I love hearing about my friends experiences regardless how remarkable but when it’s up to me to share, I have the feeling I’m just being boring and that no matter what I say they’re reaction will be: So what? Is that all? Why are you telling me this? Now I am pretty certain that those are just my negative thoughts and not what my friends are actually thinking but it stops me for talking about things I’d like to share and it’s something I want to change. I hope that this blog can help me with that.
Another reason (probably not the last but it is for now) for me starting this blog is to help me deal with my personal experiences. I noticed that my last blog was helping me deal with certain things, but as it was restricted to a particular topic it was also bringing me down.
So in conclusion this blog is primarily for me, however, I hope it’ll help others that may have been through something similar or just want a bit of a laugh. If you don’t like it then it was nice knowing you, have a good life and goodbye....here’s the door🚪.

Take care and wishing you a lovely day

Back to School: Teachers

-

I thought I’d write this in spirit of going back to school...although most are probably already back in school. I’ve been in school for a few years and would say I have a fair few experiences and thus a few rants that I could go on. So as not to write an entire book about all of it I shall stick to teachers in this particular post. This rant was a bit longer than anticipated...because of that I’ve decided to make this a three parter: the good, the bad and the ugly; starting with the ugly. I need to start this off by saying that my mother tongue is English and that this nation’s language is German and that my spelling is not the best in any language. I think we’ve all had at least one teacher that manages to ruin an entire subject for us, either through their incapability of teaching or because they’re just not a very nice person. Now this particular teacher was my French and German teacher in secondary school. She was the mother of a friend of my brothers which (sadly) meant

Happy New Year!!

So...it’s been a while hasn’t it. Life (or more uni) took over a bit the last few months. However, I have finally taken the time to sit down and write again. And boy have I missed it! I really need to work on making time for things I enjoy, which actually brings me to what I wanted to write about in this post: New Year Resolutions. At the beginning of last year I was not in a good place. My mental health wasn’t doing too well, I’d just broken off uni with no idea what to do next or where to start looking. I was not looking forward to the months ahead and felt so unsure about myself and everything in my life. Now 12 months later I think this past year might just be the best year of my life. I travelled for the first time by myself, to see relatives abroad that I’d missed and hadn’t seen in a while. Then I decided to go visit another country with a good friend of mine. I organized the whole trip (something I’d never done before). Said good friend and I are now dating (to absolutely
