Letter C - C is for Challenge

C.. I see the sea where there's a letter pronounced "Cee"

I honestly have no idea why I tend to say this but it makes me happy to do so.

Is there a saying or sentence that makes you feel all happy and fuzzy inside?

Anyway as I'm sat on my bed at 9pm on a Tuesday night, I feel proud that I've actually gone back to the gym after weeks of procrastinating and not eating well. Everyone associates the gym with the need to "lose weight" or it being a place where only muscly men go. If I could get a dollar for everytime someone gave me a funny look when I walked through the door (because I'm on the petite side of the scale) I'd probably be able to buy a week's worth of pizza for me.

I mean now I really couldn't care less about what people think or have to say especially when it comes to gym and health because CLEARLY they don't understand that different people have different goals and want to achieve that said goal at a gym. If you're a beginner like myself, it is worth learning more about things rather than make assumptions and comments which could leave you looking very silly...

So today my C word is CHALLENGE!

I challenge myself

• To be a better version of me
• To push my limits
• Not to underestimate myself
• To be positive and spread positivity 
• To never give up

And I challenge YOU to challenge yourself. 

No matter how small or simple it may be. It will all work towards making your life just that bit better and you a happier person. Whether it be waking up before 7 or meal prep or learning a new skill or even completing the A to Z challenge! Challenge yourself! 

Let me know in the comment section below what you've challenged yourself this month! 

Until next time,

Lots of love,

Letter B - B is for Behind

Pun very much intended.

So intended that it wouldn't even make any sense if I did not intend it... rather I'd just look like someone who did not know how to spell... then again I did add an image of a bee so.... clearly intended.

With that out of the way... I start off my first post of the year by taking part in a blogging challenge. The A to Z blogging challenge to be EGGxact...(must be all the sugar I've had today).

Basically this challenge takes place in April and consists of posting once a day with a letter allocated to each one from the start to the end of the month. Sounds pretty cool and simple, right?

I mean it's so obvious and let's face it, not unusual that I end up starting things late but in my defence... I had no clue this was a thing until like 15 minutes ago! If I did, I would have planned ahead and... yeah no I wouldn't have. Even if I knew of this a month ago, I would be just as unprepared and coming up with ideas on the spot like I am right now.

I don't know, it must be that I work better under pressure or suddenly find motivation to get things done when I'm either running late or falling behind on deadlines. This cannot be just me? Please tell me it's not just me?

I actually wish I could be someone who planned out her life, week or even day but I always wake up in the morning thinking "eh I can't be bothered" but as soon as I realize that deadlines are coming up way too fast, then I turn into Speedy Gonzalez... only difference is the hat.. can never find one that fits my head just right :/

So I start this blog challenge one day late... I really hope you did not have to read all the way up to here to find out it's the letter B...I'd be so disappointed if you did not pick that up from the banner.

The link to the challenge is HERE.

Ay, maybe you'll pull a Karine and end up joining even later than I have... maybe C or even D. But you know what? I ain't about to judge you for that, You do you and I will encourage you to bring out that lazy side of you and embrace your behindness - yes it is now a word.

A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THE LETTER B EVERYONE..

Until the next letter,

Lots of love,
