Q&A

Okay, so I thought I'd do a bit of background. So here's a quick Q&A about me:

1. Who are you and why are you here?

My name is Rosie and I'm a 26 year old female, I like to share stories, book reviews and other stuff. This was suggested to me by a friend of mine so I thought I'd give it a go.

2. Tell us about your dog.

Borth is a Bulldog X Sharpei, who originally belonged to someone I was living with but he was unable to take him when he left so I took him home. He's called Borth after the place by the sea as this was where we were living at the time. He's 6 months old and we do a lot of training together, as he is super intelligent.

3. Do you have a favourite author?

It's pretty hard to pick one, but at the moment it's John Grisham. I read so much that I usually have a different favourite every week!

4. Do you have a favourite band/artist?

Sia and Little Mix seem to be my go to at the moment, I also love Kelly Clarkson and Dark Sarah. Picking a favourite is pretty hard.

5. Favourite Game?

Sims 4! I love it, it's not the same as Sims 3 and I wish there were horses in Sims 4, but it's good in other ways. Also it's the only new game I've bought in a while, I've got goat simulator and ghost master (2002) on my laptop, along with Civilisation 3, so I don't really play many new games.

6. Any social media accounts?

Twitter
Facebook
Instagram

I may put in links, I probably won't, too many embarrassing pictures!

7. Stupidest thing you've ever done?

I had a cactus that I thought I was really good at looking after, I had it for 2 years before I realised I had a fake cactus! On a side note I normally have the touch of death when it comes to plants.

8. Favourite word?

Procrastination

9. Picture of Borth?


If there is anything you want to know feel free to ask. I don't bite often!

Saying Hello

Yesterday at an interview for a new job (that I didn't get) they asked me what I wanted to do with my life.
I told them I wanted to be happy. Apparently that wasn't the right answer as I didn't get the job but I am now here writing my first blog post as I am going to document my pursuit of happiness, and the disaster I'll probably make of it.

This will be the document of my adventures and the times I mess up and the times I do well. I might throw in some reviews of books, movies, albums and games just to shake things up a bit. Also quite a big part of my life is my puppy, a bulldog cross called Borth. Yes that is how you spell it. Look up Borth, it's a beautiful place and has a diverse range of people and things to do. This isn't just an advert for Borth I swear.

So enough about Borth (the place not the puppy) and onto a little about me. I'm 26 years old, I'm currently unemployed, I frequent the job centre and I am looking for work. I have worked with animals in the past, now I'm looking for a career in either caring or customer service. I love writing, I read just about anything, I love music and art. I go to a writing class once a week, so if I'm feeling brave I may even share some stuff from there. I love walking, I could definitely be healthier, although I'm happy with how I look even if no one else is. I love my dog and my friends and family.

I hope you stop to read this blog, even if you just scan to the bottom just remember that every once in a while you need to stop and remember that there is always a positive but sometimes you just have to work through the negative.

Anyway I like to end on a positive note so here's a picture of Borth the puppy, enjoying his nap!
