I Will Follow Where You Lead...

I love this show!


It makes me smile, it makes me laugh, it makes me cry and most importantly, it never fails to cheer me up!


And, it has some of the best quotes ever!

"Oi with the poodes already!" <3


I'm going to find the magic...

"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”
~ Roald Dahl.

Anyone who knows me well will know that I love beautiful quotes like the one above. They make me happy and inspire me and they really do help me get through tough times.

While on work experience I was talking to the DSM about how I love quotes and she told me this one and its since become one of my favourites.

I absolutely love it! It's so true and highlights that we have to look for magic and beauty in this world, because it is there - we just need to find it.

Merrily We Roll Along...

"It's our time, breath it in. Worlds to change and worlds to win. Our turn coming through, me and you man, me and you". "Our Time - Merrily We Roll Along".

In my opinion, this song shows the amazing Mr Sondheim at his best. I love it! <3 It's just so beautiful and for me, represents all the emotions and experiences I am going through at the moment.

I'm in my final year of school at the moment and leave in 6 months. Scary! I have been in education for 15 years and now is the time I have to decide what to do with my life - who I want to be and where I want to go.

Over the past few weeks I have been writing my personal statement and I have to say I'm pretty happy with it! When i first started it, I hated it with a passion. It didn't sound like me! So after a night of panicking I changed the whole thing and now I'm far happier with it. I feel that it shows who I am and expresses all the things that I am passionate about. And that's what I wanted to get from it. I want the people who read it to think "Wow, she's pored her heart out here and we ca see exactly who she is."

The time has come to make some pretty big decisions in my life. Honestly, I don't know if I'm ready to make them yet, but I'm going to embrace all the changes that are coming and take on every opportunity that I can. Because like Mr Sondheim wrote;

"It's our heads on the block,
Give us room and start the clock,
Our dreams coming true,
Me and you man, me and you..."

This is my time, and I plan to make the most of it! xxxx
