The Mess Of Our World At The Moment

Heya again.

I know this is the second serious post in a row, but I need, must say something about this issue. It has been bothering me for ages, and when would be a better time to post about it than now? I promise you guys that I will do something a bit more positive next time. Also I was thinking - maybe I should start doing slightly more personal posts too? Let me know in the comments if you'd like that!

Anyway.

One of  the things that disgusts me the most in this world, (and yes there is A LOT) is that there are loads of people that have so much money that they're doing nothing with, and then on the other side of the world there are starving, dying people with no help at all. 

I find it awful when people clutching purses, or with a handbag over their shoulder, buying lots of expensive stuff, walk past a homeless person without giving them a second thought. Can you not spare one of your millions of pounds for a dying, lonely and starving person who has nothing? I heard a fact the other day - half of the world's money is owned by 8 PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. The other half is owned by every 7 billion other people. 8 SINGLE PEOPLE OWN THE EQUIVALENT AMOUNT OF MONEY TO 7 BILLION. THATS RIDICULOUS. Who could be so stupidly selfish?? This makes no sense to me! Yes, you may earn it, and yes you may deserve it, but it just isn't fair on the world!

First rant over.

The second one is that, in the current situation (terrorism threats) there are young kids growing up to know fear. That's what it is. They are growing up, spending their first years in the world having to avoid busy places and watch people get killed in the news on TV. I'm a teenager and this is probably affecting us as an age group massively too- lately I've had to refuse four invites to birthday meet ups in town, shopping centres or pther busy places due to my parents being worried for my safety. This shouldn't be happening! I should be going out at the weekend, having fun, enjoying myself and not having to suspect that every stranger I walk past is a bomber!

I could go on and on, but you're probably bored now so I'll stop. Sorry.

Anyway that's just a little insight into a couple of things that annoy me about the world at the moment. Maybe I'll do more posts like this... I definitely have a lot of things that annoy me!!

Question of the Day: What is your pet hate? Answer in the comments below!

Lots of love,

Confidence: How To Boost Your Self Esteem

Heya guys x Sorry I have been so inactive recently I've just had a lot going on. Today's post is about self confidence.  This is crucial in life as no self esteem=unhappy life. Especially going through 'the teen phase' can be super hard, with all the pressure from school, media and pretty much everything else. I'm trying to help you make the most of your life, and to feel confident within yourself and your body. Know Your Strengths This is the first step to building self esteem, because you have to be able to accept your talents and the fact that you are amazing. There is a difference between being vain and knowing that your talented, so don't be afraid to show off a bit! No one likes someone who is always putting themselves down, so lighten up a bit, take compliments and shine through your skills. Improve Yourself If you see something that you don't like about yourself, work on it and change it to make it better. For example if you don't lik

Book Review - Feel The Fear

Hi guys, and welcome back to my blog. Feel the Fear by Lauren Child is another book in the Ruby Redfort series that i've mentioned before. In this incredible tale, Ruby is facing a more ghostly adventure with Spectrum, (a secret spy organisation Ruby works for), involving unexpected burglaries, and loyalty card codes. In the first book of the series, one of Ruby's colleagues murders Valerie 'nine lives' Capaldi, right? It can't be possible for her to be alive, right? Although there is some very impossible happenings going on, in very high up places. Will Ruby face her fears and confront the enemy, or fail to prevent a thrilling finale? I'm so excited, the next book in the series is coming out soon and I can't wait to get it! Rating: 5/5 stars That's all for now, Bye!

The Other Side Of The Mirror: Chapter Four

Heyyyyyy! New update today! Please let me know what you think! Chapter Four "Please! Are you  sure  that you don't have  any  Potion here, not even one single bottle?" I plead to the man at the admin desk. He sighs, and leans forward on his elbows.  "Look, girl. I've told you this seven times, and I'll tell you again once more. Every. Single. Bottle. Was. Taken. We don't have a single one here." "But none have arrived?" I ask again. "She  said  that they would be ready  today !"  "Ask her again," He says, shooing me away. I shuffle back to my computer, email Miya White, and lean back on my chair with my eyes closed. Why? I don't even know what I'm thinking 'why?' to, maybe just the whole bloody mess of this situation.  I feel a drop of liquid in my face, but it's not the right consistency to be water.  "Hita Brooke," I say wearily. "What is that, by the way?" I op
