Help.......

Shelter- Homelessness means not having a home. Some people have no roof over their head and sleep on the street, in doorways or on night buses. But much more homelessness is hidden – on a friend's sofa or spare room, or in squats.

.

 

So walking through the streets of luton these past couple of months i have really noticed that there are quite alot of homeless people around. Back where i used to live in Bracknell there was literally none.

 

When it was a bit warmer i didn't really pay much attention, i was like OH theres a homeless person id feel bad for them, yet not give them anything that would help them out. This probably sounds really stupid, but this past week the weather has been SO cold, and its only just clicked that these homeless people must be freezing on another level. And it does make me feel so bad. I was in Mc Donald's the other day and a homeless person came up to us and said that he's just come out of hospital with pneumonia and that if we had any spare change it would be really useful, i gave him what ever was in my pocket which was about 20p....probably no use at all really.

 

Its kind of just made me really think, normally i feel bad for a person for a minute and then i move on and selfishly think of myself again. Ive noticed that i can be pretty selfish, i worry about myself too much when theres other people out there that probably are worrying about real, serious issues that are more important. I think i need to realise this a bit better, and actually help people that really need it.

 

That's my challenge i think, maybe i could buy a homeless person a coffee, or give them something that will keep them warm. Something that will be of use other than me lieing to them saying "I'm sorry"....i don't mean it, I'm just not bothering with them. I don't want to be that kind of person.

The Christmas Season is upon us..

Hello....its me Emily and I'm back with a blog post in under 10 days? A miracle you say? I think so! Hahaaa

 

So again not that any of my blog posts has a specific theme, I just end up rambling my thoughts and theory's to you...which hopefully you enjoy? If not maybe leave me some suggestions on what I could post about on here!

 

So the Holiday seasons are upon us...CHRISTMASSSS....I can-not-wait! I love the winter, I love wearing coats, gloves and hats, I love hearing the fireworks and Ii love a good old get together with the family! And this year I'm really, really excited because Ive been split up from the family for about 3 months. We've all been up to new and crazy things and now I just cant wait to see how everybody is and to have some good old giggles! :D

What are you most looking forward to this Christmas? :)

This was from a couple of Christmas' ago..My good friend Louise Groom took it! Go find her on face book! (Louise Groom Photography) :D

 

 

Blaa

I fear this blog post will be a very rambley, all over the place mess! So read...if you wish to read the thoughts of a 20 year old uni student girl.

Ahhh so basically I'm having a proper girly "Why doesn't he like me? Does he like me? Maybe he likes her? Do i like him? Maybe we're just friends?" day. I'm hoping allot of people get days like this occasionally otherwise i now seem like a very desperate lonely person hahaa.

See i think Ive always been a pretty awkward person when it comes to guys, back in secondary school i barley had no proper guy friends, and then i went to college and made some guy friends and now being at uni theres just so many that I'm just starting getting more comfortable with them. The only problem is.. if i start speaking to a guy and they do one nice thing or say one nice comment i begin to really like them, and for me its hard to decide weather i like them like them, or there just a good friend like them! See i told you i was an awkward person hahaa I think i just see the very best in everyone and maybe that makes me slightly confused.

Anyway i believe theres someone i like, i just don't know if they like me or not, i think he likes me as a friend but then he does things and me being a girl might just over think things...you know how us girls are! I don't know, my plan for relationships and just life in general has always been to just go with the flow and see how it works out, don't push anything or try and make things happen because if its meant to be then its meant to be.

But on the other hand theres always the "say it before its too late" thing.

 

Ive tried this once, kinda a funny story now but its probably why I'm too scared to do it again. I really liked this dude, and thought I'm just going to ask him out....and yep you guessed it, it did not go well hahaa The dude just didn't reply! Kinda funny, kinda sad but its fine because maybe it just wasn't meant to be......its cool, I'm over it! *wipes imaginary tear from cheek* hahaaa

 

Yeahhhhh this had no point to it other than...Emily likes someone and is over thinking things waaaay to much!

 

Hope you enjoyed! Maybe you could give me some advice?! Hahaa

UNI

Yep, yep,yep......i know! Its been a while, but I'm writing this now so alls forgiven? :)

I am here, Bedfordshrie university has a new student called Emily Field Gillard and she's loving it!

Theres so much to catch up on!

Ill start from the beginning, i was so nervous/excited/scared. My mother, father and grannyma came to drop me off and i think i kept on cracking some jokes in the car to try and keep me calm, which kinda worked. I arrived and me and my mumma went it signed all the forms, got the keys and had a sneaky look at the room before my grannyma and father. My first impression of the room was "Woah" It was pretty cool... it really did feel like the big brother house looking at it haha.

Then my family stayed for a little bit and we just had to make the goodbyes quick...i thought this was for the best otherwise i would of had them there all the time! I unpacked all my things and then plucked up the courage and walked in the kitchen with my toaster and gave a massive wave with the comment "I got us a toaster!" I thought just say anything to brake the ice and it kinda worked. I instantly made friends with two girls one named Alexx and one named Georgia. Me and Alexx thought we should do a bit of shopping and she showed me around the town as i didn't really know my way around, we also brought bread and apples together...i knew from then on she was going to be one of my good friends!

Me and Alexx then went to the student union and we made some friends with one of her friends and there flat mates so that was pretty cool. I think we pretty much went out every night for the first couple of weeks. One night we went to a quiz night and we didn't have a team so we tagged along with these people called Holly, Cheyenne, jack, Connor and mark and ever since then we've been hanging around with them. I actually love them all so much, they are all really cool and funny and i feel like Ive made some really good friends :) We also met Kish, Adam, Anna, Will, Bill, Sammy, Sam, lou-lou and Emily! Everyone is so cool! Me and Emily love the fact we've got the same name and everytime we see each other we shout EMILYYYY! :D Hahaa And also we met these two students that have been here before Helen and Nelly and they are really nice, As you can tell i just love everyone at uni!

Another thing that's happened is that me and Alexx and this girl named nichola have started a radio show, which is honestly the most coolest thing i think Ive ever done! I love it, we get to talk about what we want, we get to play what ever songs we want and its just a great little hobby that I'm loving at the moment, so tune in 97.1 every Wednesday 2-4 :D Hahaa

Its so hard to summarise everything that's happened because as you can tell its now November so three months have past. Ill have to *try* and keep this more updated, i just got excited with life and forgot i should probably write it down!

P.S, i should probably tell you about the course.....I LOVE IT! Which is a big relief as i was really unsure if i would or not!

Also here's my face! :)

An Adventure with Louisey!

Hi there!

 

I don't think Ive properly introduced my friend Louise Groom on my blog yet, but she has been one of my best friends for 10 years........woah, I just worked that out just now and it seems its been quite a while haha!

 

Anyway, me and Louise love going on little adventures, seeing new places and making videos which we put on the good old youtuberino, so these past few days we have been busy doing just that. we were in much need of a new video and so Louise (Being the smarty that she is!) suggested we make an artsy video which we have never really done before. I loved this idea, it was a chance for us to explore the forest and I was intrigued to find out where this field was which Louise had been telling me about.

 

The first day of shooting our video we both wore some pretty dresses and just did some basic shots of the long grass, some landscape scenery and shots of us looking lost in the forest which was quite fun I must say!

 

 

 

The next day Louise suggested getting up really early and riding out bikes to this pretty place she knew about. Now me being me I'm not the best at getting up at what I call silly'o'clock, but Louise is more than prepared to getting up at this time as she is a photographer and likes to get up early taking photos of the wildlife that is about. It was a challenge i must say, I haven't seen that time of the day in quite a while, however I still got up, got dressed and was there to meet Louise in enough time.

 

Now getting up was the least of out worries, the bikes on the other hand were another type of challenge. To put this politely, I now think bike seats are the most uncountable things I have ever sat on in my life and by the end of our little trip our little bottoms hurt.....allot!

 

Other than the challenge of riding the bikes, once we were at our destination it was all worth it, the pretty purple flowers, birds, horses and cows were great to see and we got some great shots of our video.

 

Now my next challenge is to try and get my computer to download these videos.......wish me luck!

 

I shall leave a link to mine and Louise's you tube channel for you to have a gander at, and once the video is edited I shall let you all know! :)
