Surviving Disney World with an Allergy | rosie abigail

It’s been a hot minute, but I’m back, and talking about my favourite subject; navigating life with a deadly allergy! Well, that and my November 2019 trip to Disney World… For as long as I can remember, I’ve lived with a high-level peanut allergy, which involves carrying around antihistamines and adrenaline needles wherever I go…

Five Best Books I Read in 2019! | rosie abigail

The same thing that happens every year happened again. ‘And what’s that?’ I hear you ask. I didn’t hit my reading goal (sigh, booo me). In all honesty, I don’t actually mind not hitting it, because setting a target was enough to get me reading more than I did in 2018! I also think starting…

What I Learnt in 2019 | rosie abigail

Like every year, humans congregate to celebrate the Earth going around one full orbit successfully, and 2019 was no different. Good job Earth, have a round of applause (clapclapclap)! I have never been one to celebrate New Year’s Eve in the full sense of the event; I’ve tried nights out and house parties, but have…

Hygge Season | rosie abigail

In my world, Hygge Season is officially here! And it turns out, I was all about hygge before I even knew what it was… To give you some background, hygge (pronounced hyoo-guh) is a Danish word that can’t simply be translated into English. But then, it is more than just a word. It’s a concept…

What I Wore in Florida (in November!) | Rosie Abigail

As a British gal, when I hear the phrase November, I instantly think of cold weather. Even when I booked a trip to Florida for November 2019, I assumed the weather would be Spring-esque at a push; perfect for jeans, a light jumper, maybe a midi skirt on some sunny days. Boy, was I wrong…

Dealing with Imposter Syndrome | rosie abigail

“Imposter Syndrome”. I’ve been seeing this phrase pop up all over my social media the past few weeks – “anyone got tips to help deal with imposter syndrome? xo”, “it’s an imposter syndrome kind of day”, “reaaaally feeling out of place at this conference #impostersyndrome”. Every time I see a Tweet or post like that,…

Drinking Around the World at EPCOT!| Rosie Abigail

(Disclaimer: my partner and I are sensible adults, of legal drinking age in the UK and USA, and we did not get drunk doing this challenge. We shared each drink we purchased, had food along the way, and carried around our trusty water bottle to stay hydrated. Get watered, not slaughtered, folks). Long time, no…

Real Self-Care for Students | rosie abigail

In the land of undergraduate (and postgraduate study), a cold chill has fallen across the kingdom. Assignment titles have been released, all are behind on the reading lists, and even the strongest of students have succumbed to the flu. Stress levels are peaking, and people are forgetting what normal sleeping hours are. Two years on…

My 2019 Vacation Reading List | rosie abigail

I’m so excited, I may actually burst! Alright, that is severe exaggeration but it is kind of close to how I am feeling. At the time of writing, I have only ten days left to go until I travel to Florida for a two week holiday. Whaaaaat?! I still can’t comprehend the fact that I…

Alternative Halloween Ideas | rosie abigail

(I’ve just realised this title makes it sound like I will be discussing emo and indie inspired Halloween plans, which I am unfortunately not – although, I think I am on to something here…). Anyway – It’s spooky time! Time for pumpkin carving, Beetlejuice, mulled cider, and a heck tonne of sweets. It’s also when…
