lifestylin', chronic illness livin', twenty-somethin' creative mess
This is me; Rosie Lewis, blogger, theatre maker, over-thinker, allergic to nuts, has a tendency to fall over. In all honesty, I quite like the woman I’ve become. She’s intelligent, creative, kind-hearted, and loyal. She’s a great cook, can sing you a nice song, and will offer to proofread your essays. The woman I’ve become…

When I think of the term ‘self-care’, my mind conjures up images of bath bombs, lavender, wine, blankets, and television. In fact, if I have a self-care evening, it tends to go something like this; jumping into a hot, bubbly bath, applying a face mask, and cleansing my face within an inch of its life;…
I swear, 2010 was the year of 'what's in my bag' videos on YouTube. That’s not a complaint - I was obsessed with them. I'm not too sure as to why I was obsessed with them, but I guess it's because I'm a nosy bugger. I'd marvel at the fancy notebooks these vloggers had, and…

What is bujo-ing? To quote the official bullet journal creator, it is an analog system “to help you track the past, organize the present, and plan for the future.” To quote me (Rosie Lewis, avid bullet journal-er), “my bullet journal is my baby and I cannot live without it”. That may be a little bit…
I don’t live in my childhood bedroom anymore. I haven’t lived in my childhood home for nearly six years. My family sold that house in Caldicot to move to Abergavenny for my mum’s job, where I gained a new, smaller room. I also gained a room at my grandparents, where I stayed to complete my…

In 2017, I visited the magical Greek island of Crete; boy oh boy was it beautiful...
Hello friends. I have something important to say and I hope that you won’t think any less of me. I don’t really know how to start. First off, I’m so sorry. I’ve let you all down. You all believed in me and I’m sorry for failing you. Secondly, you won’t be hearing from me for…
