Anxiety: don't let it rule you!

Friday, 31 January 2014

So this is a very different post that usual, but I felt like it needed to be done, and it may help some of you readers out there!

Some people think that if you do things such as a 'blog', makes you really confident and you find it easy to talk about you life and your intrests. 
  I can understand why, it's probably due to the fact that blogging/vlogging provides a lot of detail about ones life and stuff. 

But in reality my life is not as it seems through my blog posts. 
Now, when I was little, I was so confident and I would do things, like enter school talent shows and ask for things for people in shops, but since the age of about 13, I have had a little anxiety, mostly social anxiety which has stopped me from doing even the simplest of tasks. Such as; going into a shop by myself, knocking on a door to deliver cards etc, and even answering the phone. But also, bigger things such as not going out, or thinking independently.      This is very hard as it makes me feel pressurised at times into doing things which are out of my comfort zone and thy I don't want to do.
  
 So, now that we're a month into the new year, and I'm a year older, I have finally decided I'm going to try my very best to get away from the anxiety, even though it will take time and lots of hard moments...

But here's what I've began to do, and hat I think will help me step by step, maybe you could take this as advice and maybe it will guide you too!

•  A step at a time, by this I mean, don't let people push me into asking for something in a shop or whatever, but doing it when I am ready myself and I feel like I can do it. 

• Finding  ways of making yourself more confident, and also by this I mean.. Find something your interested in and focus on planning etc, I did this through my blogging page. 

• This one is slightly harder, as you need to start volunteering within clubs, school etc. This helps you build up confidence and helps your become more independent. 

• And finally, say yes to those opportunities which will help you progress in the future and don't hold back when it comes to doing things independently!

•Live by my motto; use your mind and beat the whole world

My 2013 Highlights!

Friday, 24 January 2014


Hey guys! I know that were like a month into the new year, And this post is slightly overdue, But I've only just managed to fit it in! This is because of school work, and I'm also working on something for my blog,.. so yeah!

Anyway, 2013 was an amazing year! Although it had it's ups and downs, I still enjoyed every moment! It was the year of, concerts, holidays and most of all BLOGGING!
    To relive these moments would be amazing, but then I think, this year may just be even better! So whilst the year moves on, lets just take a look down memory lane, and the YEAR OF 2013!

January:
  I turned 14. And the year began with a boom! Nothing really major happened, I was so excited to start the new year had to bring!

February:
  On the 27th, I saw may fave band, and it was also the first 'proper' concert I'd ever been too. Yes it was LAWSON! Me and a friend went, and I can honestly say, it was such a great experience!

March: 
  This month started with gloom, But then into the middle of it I finally went on a long awaited holiday to Orlando, Florida. I had been twice before, but this time was so different, as it was more relaxing than  the last couple of times I'd been. Also, it was a great time to think about the stuff I was planning on doing when I came back to England.

April:
  After returning from America, It was my mum's birthday, and we celebrated this by having a partyyy! Then, the week after, I went to see ONE DIRECTION. It was so strange actually seeing them, because I'd waited so long, It just felt so serial.

May:
  I didn't really do much this month, I think I was just blog planning, and thinking about school work, as I had a week of exams coming up, so that was great! But the next month was going to be exciting.

June:
  This month was so exciting! I went to Paris with school. This was such an amazing experience. I was slightly nervous about going at first, Because I have been on school residential's before, but this was like the first one that was in a different  country, and miles away from home. But I am so glad I did it. We only went for 4 days but I think what made it great was that we were all friends and everyone got along.
  Also, doing things like going to mcdonalds at 10 at night, and seeing all the monuments made it so much better.

July:
  I had finally finished Y9 and the summer holidays were upon us. During these holidays, I went to Cornwall with my parents, and my brother. I must have been to Cornwall like 10 times, but it's so nice to go back, as it's just a nice little break to relax, and be with family.

August:
  So I finally Ombred my hair, which I'd been wanting to do for ages! And also it was the beginning of Megmoobows! I had been planning this for ages, and I was so pleased to finally get to show it people. And the response I got was amazing!

September:
  A new school year begins!, I entered Y10, with caution of course! This was a pretty tough month though. As I began to loose close friends, and we grew apart. But, that's just what happens sometimes, so yeah, We had to move on..

October:
  I gathered a lovely new group of friends, and we have all bonded so much! Anyway, this month became a 'Planning month', as all I did was plan blogs etc, hehehe, so yeah, lets go to November!

November:
 So, this month I saw the vamps, and Union J at Meadowhall, and I reached my first 1000 views! I was elated, I felt like my efforts had finally been awarded. My blog had been so long in the waiting, and for it to get this much attention in only 3 months, I was completely shocked!

December:
  The festive season had arrived! I was so looking forward to it, My blog was booming, and Christmas was on it's way! When the 25th arrived, I received so many lovely gifts, and I felt so privileged! Oh, I finally got my Iphone, wooo!

And finally I just want to say Thankyou to everyone who made 2013 a truly unbelievable year!









Lots of loves, hugs and Bows!

Fashion and Beauty Inspirations: Part-1

Saturday, 11 January 2014


Hey guys!
   As many of you know, I have a huge passion for make up, fashion and beauty. And that is the reason as to why I started megmoobows. But, I also have look at other bloggers, and make up enthusiasts to gather inspiration!, So here are my Beauty and Fashion Inspirations!


No.1 - Zoe Sugg aka 'Zoella'

    After a few years of watching Zoe on YouTube, She's become one of my 'style icons', I absolutely love her! She's so lovely and pretty! I also never used to wear plum lipsticks, and because my hair is Ombre, like Zoe's, I tried it darker lip shades and it really suited me and my hair color!
   Not only has she inspired me with beauty and fashion, She also inspired me to start my blog! So Thanks Zoe!


   



No. 2 - Tanya Burr

I've always been a fan of Tanya, and recently I've been watching more and more of her videos, especially make up tutorials. Aswell as Zoe, Tanya has inspired me to try out new products etc, which I really appreciate!
  Through her video's, its clear that she's a very genuine, lovely person!

























And finally, I do have many other fashion and beauty inspirations, but instead of putting them all in one post, I thought I'd do another post later on in the year!
     So yeah! thanks for reading guys, and speak soon!
