Someone make me a lovely new sleepy bedtime Spotify playlist… please?
cerv asked: Hi, Laura! What's your Spotify nickname? Maybe I'll send you songs, if I don't forget :) Cheers!

I think sometimes I don’t realise how naive I am. I’m silly really to think that certain things are sacred, and that they haven’t been shared with other people before. I suppose as you get older these things become less and less likely. It’s just difficult thinking that things you thought were special to your relationship are actually a lot less special than you thought.

Sad that my Bazinga! t-shirt that was supposed to come for Christmas still isn’t here.

Nobody sends me any Spotify songs or playlists anymore… this makes me sad.

Don’t have to be the prettiest If you have the mind And willingness No one stops a girl who knows what she’s got No reason why I can’t help following with my eyes Even at my best I guess I’m still just one of them.

Label Profile: Deep Elm

Deep Elm was the first record label I ever loved. Ever since I stopped listening to primarily nu-metal bands at around age 12 or 13, and for years before that, they had been releasing great music by the bands that will change your life. Along with their incredible releases, their multiple compilations were mainstays of the indie and emo (we’re talking...

Didn’t get the job. 4 people interviewed, and I scored the 2nd highest, but the person who beat me has a lot more experience and currently works in a Superstore. I did actually score enough points to pass the interview though, which surprises me, so had he not applied I would have got it. So technically I am good enough to work at that grade, it’s just a case of the position not being...
Wow. I hate it when you believe that someone is a genuinely nice person, and they completely prove you wrong. I just do not get it.
It’s like you can happily get along with someone for months, and become friends, then they suddenly decide you’re no longer good enough to talk to. Interesting. I’m far too naive, and tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. I’m...

Totally can’t wait for my new book Eleven by Mark Watson to arrive. Apparently if you liked One Day by David Nicholls (which I adore), then you’ll love this.
Infact, I’m going to read One Day again while I wait for it to arrive. May as well depress myself some more.

So in 3 days time I’ll have had my “dream job” interview, and will no longer have any influence on the decision whatsoever. This scares me, a lot.
I’ve prepared my presentation, and my boss has given me a bit of advice around preparing some examples of situations I’ve recently dealt with, and this has made me even more nervous. I can’t seem to engage my brain...
