My name is Hov’ (oh) H-to-the-O-V. It’s not really. It’s Amy. This is me. Some of you may already know this, some of you may not. But whilst I was doing some blog maintenance earlier I noticed that there were more people hanging round these internet parts than usual, so I thought I’d pop together […]

When I opened my laptop earlier today to start a new blogpost, I was intending to write about a day trip that I took. But the more I’ve been staring at my keyboard, the more I realise that I don’t want to talk about where I travelled to, I want to talk about the people […]

Is it possible to be dead and alive at the same time? This is the question I find myself asking myself (because we’re all totally guilty of talking to ourselves amirite?) as I lay in the bath soaking away the stress of a weeks worth of 2am bedtimes, and as I lay there slowly turning […]

Words can heal, words can inspire, words can defend, and words can unite. But when the words you are hearing are; “You alright there fried eggs” “You’d look so pretty if you didn’t have that wonky tooth” “Wheyyy, check out those thunder thighs” Words can hurt.

If you told me three years ago that I’d be able to sit here and say “HEY YOU GUYS TODAY IS MY THREE YEAR BLOGGIVERSARY!” I’d tell you you were mad and then laugh you out of the room because everybody who knew me knows that my interests used to change quicker than the English weather. Yet […]

Time flies doesn’t it? I mean one minute you’re going to school with your skirt folded over itself like fifteen times so that it doesn’t reach your knees and you’re wearing footless tights (because hahahah who actually wore leggings back then) and your eyes are covered in ALL the Barry M dazzle dust, and then […]

Hi. My name’s Amy and this is my face. You may be thinking “I already know what you look like silly” or “my word you look rough” and if your first thought was the latter, then you are part of the reason I am writing this post. The other day I was walking through my […]

I was going to write a post today about some of the things I’ve been up to recently (which you can find on my instagram) but then I started procrastinating and I got distracted by Facebook and before I knew it I had spent 25 minutes looking at old pictures of myself and sharing the most shameful […]
