How to Get That ‘Work-Life Balance’ | rosie abigail
It’s fair to say that I am a busy bee. I work full time in Higher Education, run an arts and theatre company on the side, blog throughout the week, am completing a part-time Masters, and trying to maintain strong health and fitness, personal relationships, and not burn out (goodness, even reading that makes my…

September Favourites 2019 | rosie abigail
Finally, we are moving away from the awkward ‘need a jumper in the morning, and shorts in the afternoon’ weather, and into turtleneck season! With September done and gone, I deem Autumn to be well and truly here. Autumn is when I thrive; I’m a rainy day, hot cup of tea, crispy leaves kind of…

Seven Deadly Sins Book Tag | rosie abigail
Last month, I was scrolling through my blog feed and a post immediately caught my eye. I excitedly scrawled down the title in my blog planner, to be saved for another day. Lo and behold, the post was ‘Adventures of a Bibliophile’s’ Seven Deadly Sins Book Tag! I have never done a tag, let alone a…

Switching to Cruelty-Free Beauty & Skin Care | rosie abigail
Look, I’m not the most environmentally friendly person out there; I forget my metal straws, I still use clingfilm, and I simply can’t be vegan because of my allergies (that’s another blog post for another time). But, I am trying to be the best green version of myself I can be (green as in ‘caring…

Women in Writing | rosie abigail
I love women supporting women. I also love books. So it makes sense that I am finally writing about my top books written by women! This post is meant to open people’s eyes to the wonderful world of women writers, when education and academia is full of boring, old, white, male authors talking about the…

New Year, New Bujo! | rosie abigail
Alright, it’s not exactly a new year, but it is a new academic year! Like any bullet journaling fiend, I like to find any excuse to get a new notebook, and I think this is a pretty good excuse. I work in Higher Education, so basically run on the academic clock; it also helps that…

Eating Out (& Surviving!) with an Allergy | rosie abigail
When I was born into this world, I was truly blessed; blessed with creativity, kindness, and a life-threatening nut allergy. In the first few years of my life, I miraculously avoided nuts. My parents only found out about my allergy in my toddler years because, being the greedy sod that I am, I snuck a…

Starting University? My Study Kit! | rosie abigail
By the time this blog post has gone up, A-Level Results day would have been and gone, and hundreds of thousands of people will be beginning their ‘oh my gosh, I’m going to university!’ panic. I remember that nervousness-meets-excitement very well, even though I experienced it five years ago, and graduated two years ago! (Oh,…

My (Grown-Up) Disney World Bucket List! | rosie abigail
At the time of writing this, I have less than three months to go until my trip to Walt Disney World! To some people, that may seem a lifetime away, but to an absolutely obsessed planner, it’s not that long at all. Our dinner reservations are booked, FastPass lists have been made for the start…

“If you can’t love yourself, how are you going to love anyone else?” | rosie abigail
Every time I hear that sentence, I can feel my blood start to boil. You want to know why? Because I disagree entirely. If you know me, you’ll know I’ve struggled with my mental health and image of self-worth for a while. I’ve been diagnosed with chronic anxiety and clinical depression, and like the majority…
