Confusion

Hello lovelies!

I know it has been a while since I have posted but that is what today's post is all about. Firstly I'd like to say happy new year to you all and I hope your Christmas breaks were amazing!

I'm in a confused head space at the moment as to what to do with my blog. Most bloggers my age write about beauty and fashion and although I love to read these blogs and indulge in these topics myself, I feel as though I'm not interested in writing about them. I love to feel passionate when I'm writing and many times since my last post I have started to write about products I have bought etc. and I've just deleted them all because they all sound fake, as though it's not me who has written the piece.
I would love to write things about politics and history but I know the common audience for blogs wont read that content. This is why I'm so confused, I don't know whether to stop blogging or just to succumb to what will be popular but go against what I'm passionate about.

What has inspired these thoughts is that I watched a Michilak vlog recently where Stefan says that they make content that they would want to watch themselves and don't follow the usual youtube crowd. I want to do that with blogging but I don't know if I'll be laughed at, mocked or just be completely unsuccessful. For example when I broke away from blogging content before in my post 'let's talk about sex' people within my sixth form at the time criticized me as a writer and as a person. This stopped me writing for months and I don't want to experience it again.

I think the have conclusion that I will come to is to trial content that I want to write and see how it goes, if I fall flat on my face then at least I tried, right?

On a side note, thank you for all the views I have had recently! It really brightened my Christmas when I saw how many of you were reading my content!

Sorry for the rant but I had to get that off of my chest!
Love

Blue Story - why the film shouldn't be banned

Blue Story was released on Friday, a movie about teenagers growing up in London and how they are sucked into gang culture. The film, which has been likened to the hit show Top Boy, has now been banned from all Vue cinema's in light of an incident at one of their venues in Birmingham - a decision that I think is ridiculous. Photo from Rapman's Instagram. While the safety of cinema goers is of course integral, the incident in question has not been directly linked to the film. In addition, many of the people involved are not even old enough to watch the rated 15 movie . Police have not mentioned the movie in any of their inquiries and have not recommended a ban - something the media has not shone as much of a light on. The reason this has got under my skin is that after I watched the movie on Sunday the message I took away from it is that the systematic culture of gangs is heartbreaking and unnecessary. At the heart of this film its creator Rapman is trying to say that, whil

Something a bit personal

Hello lovelies! Today I want to speak about something a bit personal to do with my family so if you aren't interested in that kind of stuff I'll give you warning now to leave! About 2 years ago I lost someone in my life who I looked up to and I was so close to. My brother walked out of my life to start a new one with his girlfriend and ever since I've been kind of lost. I didn't realise how much it had affected me until recently which is why I'm posting this. Mine and my brothers relationship was a close one; I'd tell him everything and visa versa. We of course had the odd spat but that's the same with every relationship, isn't it? I never really knew how much I needed him until he was gone, isn't that always the case? He just left and dropped me like he didn't care and I believe that he doesn't care about me or my family. He hasn't spoken to us in 2 and a bit years and to be quite honest I don't think he ever will. Now whenever som

30 things I want to do before I'm 30

Hi lovelies! I'm turning 18 soon and thought it would be a good idea to write this post and then come back to it when I turn 30 and see if I could tick all of the thing off of the list! Having a check list for me means that I'm more obligated to go ahead with my ideas rather than pushing them to the back of my mind and backing it of them. SO here we go! 30: Have a spontaneous holiday. Go to the airport and just get a plane. I think this would be so much fun! 29: Fall in love. I know very cheesy but if I haven't fallen in love by the time I'm 30 I may as well be Bridget Jones; become a spinster and be eaten by wild Alsatians. If you've seen the film you'd get that reference! 28: Be in a job I love! Listen up future me if you aren't in a job you love leave it now and get one you do! There's no point in working somewhere that doesn't motivate you to get up every morning. 27: Had the courage to start up Youtube again. I posted some videos last year
