Grab a pizza’ life.


Forrest Gump once said:
“Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get.” 
He meant that life is unpredictable and filled with surprises.
And he might have been right.

But for me, life is like pizza.
In so many different ways.

Firstly, no matter what, all pizza is amazing.
Even bad pizza is still going to be good.
And no two pizzas are ever the same.
They’re completely unique, in every way.

But just how good that pizza is, depends on lots of different things…

The quality of the ingredients you begin with.
The care and attention in which it is made.
And the toppings you decide to add along the way.

How long you place it in the heat.
Personal preferences and individuality.
Your hunger and mindset when you’re tasting it.

And, arguably most important of all:
The people you choose to share it with.
Because pizza is made to be shared.

But even after all that…
Truly great pizza comes down to more than just how it is made, or enjoyed.

It's about luck, and opportunity.
Being in the right place at the the right time.
Figuring out what you love and what you don't.
And being brave enough to try something new.

Life is like pizza.
Grab a slice, and enjoy.

Thanks for reading, over and out!

The Truth.

Promise me not to waste your time, or mine, with pointless pleasantries or foolish niceties. Give me the harsh, brutal, truth. Let me find comfort in the reality of your honesty, instead of numbness  in the fairy tale of your lies. I would much rather the bitter sting swallowing a harsh pill, than to choke on the sickly syrup of honeyed words.  Speak your truth.

Surviving University

Hello again my lovely readers! It's been a while since the last time I posted, so my apologies. I guess I got a little wrapped up in my own little world, and forgot the importance of taking a little time to sit down and clear your mind. Blogs are an amazingly useful tool, even for something as simple as giving you a chance to vent all those niggling thoughts in the back of your brain. It's kind of like spinning plates... You get so caught up trying to keep everything going and try so hard not to let anything fall, that you don't give yourself a chance to just be yourself. But once again, I digress. Here goes. So in the second year of university, I think the biggest thing I've learnt is what NOT to do. Unfortunately I learnt the hard way, but on the bright side, hopefully by reading this you will have the sense to avoid making the same mistakes! And although some may seem like obvious blunders, it doesn't take much to make something appear like a great idea. May...

ASIAN ADVENTURE PART II

Hello world! So it's day three of my wonderful little adventure around S.E.A (if you don't know about it, read my previous post!), and so far I've spent all the time in Saigon. I completely love it here, the city is truly alive with activity, the streets buzz with the energy of its citizens and the buildings tower with opportunity. I definitely feel at home here. But alas, here's what I've been up to! DAY 1: I finally arrived in Saigon after an exhausting 25 hours on planes and in airports! It was 9PM here and I was completely wiped-out, but desperate to get out and explore! So, after finding the Hotel, hastily showering and getting ready, I headed out to the liveliest part of the city. Here, I met a lovely bicycle taxi man who took me up to an English speaking bar which served food all night - great for me as I had avoided plane food all day! The meal only cost 65,000 Vietnamese Dong, which is around £2 GBP. As well as this, all the bars on this strip served beer...
