Electrically Effective

Sometimes life just gets macabre. Doesn't it? That's when hives of jealousy pour out of everywhere and you're left comparing yourself to others and begrudging them for their success - even if it's something silly like cleaning the sink. You've got my attention now, but how do I fix it? How do I stop comparing myself to others? How do I get my life back? You see that's a tricky question... The untold truth is that nobody can just stop you feeling jealous at the drop of a hat. It's up to you. BUT, that's okay! It means that you're life is just a little bit more personalised.   So is that it then? Of course not! Just because I can't stop you from being jealous doesn't mean I can't give you a few pointers. Don't know about you but I always see videos about this kind of thing. Perhaps I'll blend into the mix but I want to give you some advice.                                     ...

Hello everyone! In today's post I'll be telling you my top 5 black Friday deals I think you should check out. I'm not sponsored either so it's 100% my opinion. Sometimes when black Friday roles around I'm like ugghh I don't need anything. BUT! Who cares? Black Friday is a great opportunity to save on products whether it's for a holiday or for university supplies. So, let's begin!                                  1. GYMSHARK                                     Technically, the gymshark sale is ' blackout' and if you're like me you've seen the brand plastered all over Instagram. And then you probably decided to go onto the website, and yikes the prices are rough! Today however, you need not fear the prices are up to 70% off so now you can justify buying some new gym kit even if it's just to follow a ...

A Six of Crows is written by the New York Times best seller Leigh Bardugo. And, in today’s post I’m going to be telling you on whether or not you should read it yourself! First of all, the book is set in the “Grisha Verse” where there are some with magical abilities to alter the world. Leigh Bardugo has written other series in the same universe such as the “Shadow and Bone” trilogy. There are six different characters and viewpoints in this book: ·          A convict with a thirst for revenge ·          A sharpshooter who can’t walk away from a wager. ·          A runaway with a privileged past. ·          A spy known as the Wraith. ·          A heartrender using her magic to survive the slums. ·          A thief with a gi...

The untold truth is, blogging is a lot of hard work. If you know a little bit about me, you’ll know I’m only my second month in. But you’ve got to persevere! Sure, things get busy and life gets tough but as long as you keep on trotting along, you’ll get where you want to go. Recently, I’ve decided I want to go to university – a year earlier than previously anticipated. This means I have to go through all the horrors of a personal statement, saving up money, getting ready to leave your beloved bed behind (Scary, isn’t it?!). AND! I’ve got to do this all the while studying for passing exams and living my everyday life. But that doesn’t stop me. This post is a little bit of a chat. I need to let you guys know that I’m going through a little bit of a low. Content’s a little tricky as I feel a little bit stretched out in places. Rest assured though I will not give up blogging! Of course it’s going to take time getting my life sorted with my new hobby of blogging thrown into ...

Do you know that last month’s blog goals were my most viewed post? I know! I was really surprised me – 44 views may not seem like a lot to some but to me it made my day. Maybe even my month! So, in order to keep improving myself and my blog we are going to do another one! 1.        I want to gain 650 twitter followers! As of the moment I have around 452 followers and that’s pretty much from just one month of blogging. I’ve read so many blogposts and read so many comments about how important social media is for bloggers and this is just one way I want to boost that to my blog’s benefit. You can find me @ ElectricallyE on twitter! 2.        I want to gain 200 followers on Pinterest! I’ve heard from so many people that Pinterest is their main source of traffic and so I started one up in the middle of last month and started creating boards and saving pins. Every now and then I would also add some of my own cove...
