The Problem With Jealousy...

Image
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.                                     ...

Life Update!

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 ...

My skincare routine!

Hello everyone! Today I’m going to go through my daily skincare routine, in case you weren’t aware I am an avid fan on skincare. I believe that it can completely turn your day around not only physically but also mentally!  So, first of all I have two face scrubs/washes. I use the clean and clear morning energy skin brightening daily facial scrub from Johnson and Johnson every morning as it actually wakes me up and makes me feel more energised and I feel I smell nice as well the scent is lemon. For nights I use the blackhead clearing daily scrub also from Johnson and Johnson, I have repurchased both these items many a time and I really like them because not only do they work they are also very inexpensive and last forever! You can get them for around £4-£6 and they both contain 150 ml, they are available in boots and Superdrug as well so, definitely accessible to anyone in the UK. I also use the advantage spot control treatment gel from Johnson and Johnson which I really...

Studying with Efficiency!

Hello everyone, it's me Electrically Effective and today I'm going to share some study hacks to boost you at a rate of knots! Hope you enjoy my post. DESK, DESK, DESK! Whether you are at home or out and about you can always find a good spot for studying (perhaps somewhere like a library). Never study in uncomfortable situations because that will end up being what you associate with studying - demotivating you. I remember last year I spent all my time revising on a tiny winy desk and that was remarkably difficult to move in any direction and in the end most of the time I spent writing stuff into my notebook on my lap as my textbooks and materials took up the entire space of the desk! Thankfully though, this year I received a new desk for my birthday which I had previously planned. What can I say? I just really enjoy doing projects even if they are little! At first I found it hard to bother at all for studying, I thought it was sooooo BORING!!! So nowadays in order ...
