Trying To Move Out...

So my name is Stef and I am 24 years old and still living at home with my parents.

I always thought I would be the type of person that wouldn’t want to move out of my parent’s house until I was at least living with someone else. However, recently I have been thinking a lot more about moving out and living on my own. To have my own little place that could be all mine, that I had worked hard for and that I could make my own and something I could call my own.

However, I work full time as a Manager at a fast food outlet, though I make a good wage at the end of the month I still do not have enough money to move out. Why does the price of living have to be so god damn expensive? To even get a small one-bedroom flat that I wouldn’t consider to be worth the money is £500 a month and that’s rent alone – no heating or electricity.

I am starting to get a little bit dishearten that I will never be able to move out unless its with someone else. But I really like the idea of living on my own where nobody can bother me if I want to sleep in until 12pm or eat my dinner in the bath while watching a film on my laptop.

So the question I am asking myself now is, do I save up enough over the next few years to buy a reasonably nice house or do I work harder and more hours each month to just move out and rent somewhere. It is such a big decision and sometimes I get stressed out even thinking about the fact that all my friends are moving out, living with their partners or on their own and I am still living at home wondering what the hell to do with my life?

I really wish that when I had turned 18 and started working full time hours that I saved more money and that I had planned more for this.

And hope that sometime soon I will be able to move out and have a little place that I can make my own.

I cannot be the only person that thinks about this kind of stuff and stresses over it right?

Lip Blams

For a couple of years now I've been suffering with the worst case of dry/cracked lip imaginable. All day I am constantly applying lip balm as my lips without anything covering them is agony. They constantly crack and then bleed, they flake off and to be completely honest it isn't exactly very nice to be talking to someone and feel as though they are just staring at your flakey lips. So since I feel like I am an expert in the field of lip balm as I own and have tried what feel like hundreds over the past two years that I would give you my personal opinion on a few Lip Balm I have tried out recently and wether they were work the money, and if they have done anything to help my lips. 1. La Roche-Posay - Barrier Repairing Balm I initially bought this as I had heard Estee Lalonde rave about how good it was for helping her lips from being so cracked and sore so thought it would help me. I use this every night and lather it on my lips and yes I do think it helps...

Mario Badescu Make Up Remover

For many months now I have been using a waterproof mascara as I feel like it hold a better curl and last a lot longer without dropping or shortening the curl. One thing I could not stand and quite frankly dreaded was having to take the mascara off to apply a fresh coat, I used to spend ages tugging at my lashes to try and get all the product off but for some reason my lashes just never felt clean, I always felt like there was still a coat of mascara on them. I searched the shops for removers that were specific to taking off waterproof mascara and even they did not seem to work either.  I loved how to mascara looked and I did not want to have to try and find another mascara that looked as good. I was looking through Beauty Bay a few months back and found the brand Mario Badescu and I remembered watching a video of Zoe where she spoke and raved about how good the brand was. Since I had tried everything else I didn't think it would hurt to give their waterproof ...

Slimming World - Week 2

My first week back at Slimming World and I would say that it was a complete success! 99% of the time I was on plan with just one day where a Nandos may have happened!  It paid off!

If I lose 2.5lbs every week I will be one happy girl! Lets hope this week I am just as determined as I was last week!
