Favourite YouTubers

 

This is a list of all of my favourite YouTubers, if you couldn't tell by the title. If you are ever bored and want to watch some new content, I suggest you subscribe to them. These are not in order because that would be too hard for me so here we go.

 

1. Gabriella Lindley (Gabby). I have mentioned Gabby before, anyone that knows me knows that I am obsessed with her. I love how she is not afraid to speak up about what she believes in. She makes beauty/fashion videos. As of right now, she has 693k subscribers but she deserves so much more!

2. The second YouTuber on my list is Eve Bennett. She is 15 and makes beauty/fashion videos too. She is so relatable to teenagers as she is one herself. I have only been watching her for a couple of months but she is in my favourites because I have grown to love her, A LOT! She has 64k subscribers and I honestly want her to have so many more subscribers because she is so cute!

3. Zoella (Zoe Sugg) has been a favourite of mine for years now. I love her content, she is so cute. I am pretty sure you know her because she has over 9 million subcribers. She deserves them all and more. Although her main channel videos are amazing, I have been going crazy for her vlogs! She is so down-to-earth and genuine. I love her so much!

4. Last but not least is Emily Canham (M). She is beautiful from the inside and out. Her videos always put me in the best mood ever. You can tell she loves makeup with a passion, she gets so happy when she talks about anything beauty related. She now has over 189k subscribers and I am so excited for her! She is so sweet and I love her a lot.

On A Serious Note

Okay, today Im going to be talking about something quite serious and sensitive for some people. It's a struggle that so many people have gone through alone and I just wanted to raise awareness for it. For anyone that is going through a rough time at the moment, just know that you are not alone. You can talk to me via any social media or through the comment section where you can share your stories. (If you are comfortable doing so)

Lately, my friend hasn't harmed herself in months and about a week ago, I saw slits down her arm. It breaks my heart seeing anyone doing something to harm themselves, it's hard seeing it on strangers, never mind our close friends. I do realize that it is a very sensitive subject for many people but I really want to make people more aware of it. 

I never knew how true the phrase 'it's amazing what long sleeves and a fake smile can hide' was until now. To think that a piece of cloth is the the only thing preventing her from getting help is scary. As much as I want to tell someone about the cuts, I feel like I am being disloyal to her. I don't want to ask 'why?' or 'when?' but I can't help but let the questions float around in my head. I want to make aware of the fact that I know, just to tell her that she can talk to me if she needs to but then again, how do you do that without making the person feel uncomfortable?

I think that there is a lot of social pressure put in teens and young adults especially, it is so unnecessary that I cant even begin to describe. As much as we dont want to admit it, we have all sat there and thought about how we are socially percieved. That could be friends, family or just strangers you see on the street, it has gotten so bad that we look out to see who is judging us. (Well I know I do anyway!) 

What I am trying to say is that at the end ofthe day, we need to learn to accept and love ourselves for who we are. I realise that it is easier said than done but if we just put in a little effort, I think we would all be a lot more happier. 

By the way, I am sorry that these past few posts have been me ranting but I have recently had a lot of time to think so I thought that I would document my views and ideas Hopefully I will be doing some new posts to do with skincare and maybe food so get excited. Also, please give me some ideas of what you would like to read in the comments. Follow me on all of my social media, as always.

Judging

 

Is it just me or do you get afraid of people judging you? I mean, it literally plays in the back of my mind every time someone walks past. It is so annoying because half of the people were just going about their day. A little voice inside my head says 'she's looking at you' and I automatically think that they are judging me. I don't know whether that is because of my weight or the way I dress. All I know is that it is (hopefully) going away slowly. (Lets just hope it doesn't take to long.)

 

A wise person (not that wise, though) once told me 'people will judge you.' At first I thought, 'that was a bit rude and harsh' but I realised that I needed to hear that. The sad reality of life is that people will judge you for your flaws and your insecurities. But the one good thing that you get out of it is that you know who really loves you. The people that except you -the true you- are the ones that care. I just realised it now, as I write it down. I hope that one day I will look back and laugh at myself for being so sensitive.

 

I am so sorry that this is late and short but my internet decided not to work. I have been so stressed out and just wrote this up. This is something that I am very passionate about so I thought I would write about it. There also isn't a photo of the week because my phone isn't working. Technology has really let me down the last week. Anyway, after that rant, if you are still reading comment something below. Follow me:
