My 29th Birthday

 

I celebrated my 29th birthday on the 8th August. It will be one of my least memorable ones. Despite my boyfriend and sisters attempts to take my mind of my circumstances at the moment it was always at the back of my mind. You see I've been temporally laid-off for the past 3 weeks and I've been quite stressed out about it. I've looked for other work and had interviews without any success. I've come close to signing on to job seekers twice. The problem is I have too much pride to do so and I somehow feel like I've failed if I do, plus because of my partners income (not much) I wouldn't receive a whole lot from job seekers and it would probably cause me more stress.

1 year Blogiversary and Giveaway

 

This month marks 1 whole year of my blog ❤ It's actually birthday date is 31st July so I thought I'd do a fabulous giveaway now to be announced on the day :D I just want to give a little back to my readers becuase if you hadn't been reading my posts and showing me how much you love what I write via comments, follows and tweets I probably wouldn't have continued. It's YOU that spurs me to get off my butt and discover new products/brands to review. I've made so many friends locally and abroad. If I hadn't become a blogger at the age of 27 I wouldn't have found the courage to become a student again and follow my heart into the big, bad world of makeup artistry.
