I am a Virgo and as for all astrological signs some traits typical of a Virgo are true for me and some are false.
One thing that is true about both myself and Virgos are we are very observant. I am constantly watching people, trying to work them out. Or looking at my surroundings, taking in noises and movements. I also think I'm a reliable and trustworthy person. I'd like to think I'm relatively smart and good at problem solving too. The bad point that is also true is that I'm extremely fussy with EVERYTHING.
What is not true is things like how Virgos are supposed to be very independent, closed off and their rational thinking can restrict the creative section of their mind. These are all definitely not like me at all.
But all in all there are a lot of true traits, and some false traits. To be honest, I don't think Zodiac signs are correct, they're interesting and a bit of fun but not always correct.
Song of the day: A song that reminds me of somewhere
For on obvious reason, this song was one I constantly played on my ipod while on holiday with my college class to Amsterdam - Amsterdam by Imagine Dragons
Chocolate. Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. Absolutely anything chocolatey. Whether it's cake, ice cream, cereal, biscuits.....
It's all so sweet and the way it melts and how it just satisfies my cravings. But, I think my favourite has to be brownies....oh my god just the thought of them... Gooey ones with a crisp top and a soft centre.... Ones that are so rich they get stuck at the top of your mouth while you're chewing.
Apart from chocolate the only other comfort food I can think of is ham. In particular ham toasties. Oh..ham, cheese and tomato toasties are just heavenly.
I need a chocolate toastie I think...
Song of the day: A song that reminds me of someone
I'm going to start off by saying I'm not religious in any way. I don't believe there's a God as I've definitely not seen enough proof at all. But I'm not against religion.
People can believe whatever they want. Actually it's great. It shows how unique everyone is and that our minds all work differently. I love the cultures, the traditional practices, the commitment that people show with religion. What I don't like is people shoving their beliefs in my face.
Every morning when I walk to college there is always this guy standing outside the church preaching and handing leaflets out and trying to persuade my thinking. Leave me alone, I have my own mind and I'm allowed to think differently to you. Have you ever seen someone on the street trying to force people to believe in evolution and science? No.
Another thing I hate about it, which 99.9% of people will agree with, is extremists. The violent ones. People you blame their religion for committing crimes. Absolute rubbish! How dare you make your religion seem wrong because of your foolish acts. You are literally the worst people and your religion is not the cause of this.
Be, do and believe whatever you want, as long as it's not hurting anyone else.
Song of the day: A song that makes me sad (but in a good way)
I cannot stand this. Especially when I'm not eating myself. Just the noise.... the sound of food moving around in your mouth in between your breathing. You have a nose! It's there to help you breath! Why don't you use it when your mouth is busy? And also seeing it too. Seeing someone's mouth while they've got food mushed up inside it is just vile. Just stop.
2. When people change the tv channel without asking.
Even when I'm not giving the tv 100% of my attention I'd still appreciate if you asked? Just how people can think 'oh this is a bad tv show I'll change it.' Hello?...I'm sitting right here. I was the one that turned it on in the first place. You can't just come in and take control no matter how bad the programme is.
3. Dishes
This gets a whole section. I hate doing the dishes but what I hate more is people doing it differently to how I do it. I know this is just me being overly fussy and it's the only thing I'm OCD over. Before washing I have to arrange all the dirty dishes in this order: Cutlery (from cleanest to dirtiest), glasses, mugs, bowls, plates (from cleanest to dirtiest) and then pots and pans. My way of thinking is cutlery gets put in your mouth, it has to be the cleanest so it gets the cleanest water. Then glasses and mugs go near our mouths and they hold liquid so they have to be next cleanest. But even stacking them! All cutlery has to be facing down; plates have to be together from biggest to smallest; bowls against each other. I'm so fussy...I know it's ridiculous but it just really annoys me if it's not done like this.
4. My nails not going past the end of my finger
I hate the feeling of the ends of my fingers hitting surfaces. It has to be my nails so they're always long. Even when I cut them I leave them long as I hate how sensitive the ends of my fingers are.
5. Certain TV programmes
How can anyone like them...? I'm sorry but they're so pointless. If I wanted to watch this sort of drama I could go speak to my friends for half an hour. I'm talking about programmes like TOWIE and Made in Chelsea and Keeping up with the Kardashians. You're famous for being drama queens. You get tonnes of money for doing absolutely nothing. It's not a talent and you don't deserve fame and money for it. (I'm not saying they're talentless as they could easily have skills outside of the show) I just hate these celebrities that got famous for no reason.
In 10 years time I will be 30. This is so horrible to think about! But I am giving it some thought...
I hope I'm in a stable job that earns enough but most importantly makes me happy. Hopefully this job is something to do with textiles or fashion as that's where my heart lies. If I get offered a really good job I will move for it, but I can see myself remaining on mainland Scotland if it doesn't come to that. I'd hate to be far away from my family but I do have to think of myself first.
I definitely want to be happily married by then but obviously if I don't find the right person then I can't force it to happen. And I want to make sure that I can take care of myself and have made a name for myself before even considering bringing a new name into this world. So I won't have kids until close to 30 I think.
I want to live on the outskirts of a city. I love the amenities of a city but I hate the hustle and bustle of it all so I would live within driving distance to both a city and the country. I wouldn't want a large house, but big enough for what I need. I'd preferably have a separate room to use as an office/studio where I can be creative.
A dog is definitely on the cards. One that isn't too big though. A small cuddly one that I can have on the sofa with me would be perfect.
Song of the day: My least favourite song
There are a lot of bad songs out there but here's one that I hate because she totally stole it from one of my favourite singers: Roar by Katy Perry
On the 16th of August 2014 I went for a staff night 'in' at my colleague's house. It was just going to be a nice night in with a few of us from work, a few drams, a few games. My colleague lives with her boyfriend but at the time they also had her boyfriend's cousin staying with them while he was saving up to move away again. I remember walking in and seeing him and thinking 'Why did she not tell me that her boyfriend's cousin was so good looking?'. I couldn't speak to him. I went shy around him instantly. It was a good thing he's so outgoing.
Guys had never been interested in me. I'd never had a boyfriend and now I'm thinking never having another one is a possibility. We've been together for over a year now and he's brilliant. He's supportive, kind, hilarious and incredibly smart. He's my other half and I couldn't ask for anything more. He's so understanding and never judges me. We're now living together while I'm studying and he's working full time. Surprisingly we've never actually argued and we're always just goofing about.
Song of the day: My favourite song
My favourite song is constantly changing but AT THE MOMENT it is probably The Sound by The 1975
At college we had a guest speaker who blogs as a part-time job and she gave me this idea of a way to start blogging. A blog challenge. So I got this one from zehirablog.wordpress.com as my starting point.
Doing something for roughly 30 days can turn it into a habit. Hopefully this will force me to update this blog enough as I would love to make this happen.
