Adult colouring in

My dad laughed at me when I said I wanted a colouring book.
I'm a 20 year old and I want to colour in okay?
The day I had my panic attack in the middle of London my dad finally thought getting a colouring book would be a good idea to help calm me down, and it did.

I think colouring in is really fun, and calming.
You can get all sorts of books with patters and ideas, and even though my dad thought I was being silly for wanting a colouring in book he sees now it does help.
I got to choose from all these books and more!
In the end I bought this one

I don't think its one of the most popular ones but I love it.
There are so many pages and so much detail I think It's going to take me years to finish it, but either way I'm not in a rush.

What are your thoughts on adult colouring books? Do you think It's silly to want to colour in as an adult?

Panick in the middle of london

Apparently I have something called demo-phobia, or at least that's what my dad thinks it is.


I had a full on panic attack in the middle of London, I don't know why but I just realised I was surrounded by strangers and burst into tears.

My dad and brother were ahead of me so they didn't even notice I was crying at first, but then strangers started staring at me because I was crying and people were looking at me I started screaming, I don't know why.
I didn't appreciate strangers staring at me I guess, so my brother and dad turned around and I was crying and shaking and just stood there.
I didn't even want to move, all I could say was that there's too many people.
My dad tried to put his arm around me and asked me what was wrong but I pushed him away, I didn't want to be touched I kept repeating ''there's too many people''.

I was shaking and crying and I didn't know why, I've never felt like crying because I'm surrounded by people.
I guess living on my little Island here in Spain the population isn't as high as it is in the UK and I'm not used to so many people.

I don't know if it is some kind of phobia or not but I did not like that day at all.
We got out of the crowded place and sat down, had a coffee and something to eat and eventually I calmed down.

Could it be a phobia? Or is this something that happens to everyone every once in a while? Could it be an anxiety attack?

Should I go or should I stay?

Ok so a while ago I asked you guys if I should quit my job as a child carer for this family --> Read it here!

Now, I'm pretty sure that normally if you have someone looking after your kid in the afternoons and odd evenings you stick to that with them.
I haven't quit yet because I'd rather find another job first and have the excuse for better pay than '' you creep me out bye''

Today I took the kid to a place where they had trampolines and blow up castles and stuff for her to play on and the dad met us there after he'd finished whatever he needed to finish.

While she was having a hoot he asked me to sit next to him because he wanted to have a chat- which is fine, it was when he said he wants to go on holiday and would like me to go with him and his daughter to the Caribbean and that he'd pay for everything that I was confused.
I asked him about how long he was thinking of going for and he said last year he took his daughter to Disneyland in France because she really wanted to go, and the babysitter they had then came with them and they went for three weeks, and that It would be about the same amount of time this year because a week flies by when you're and holiday and he wants to do the whole tourist thing and go on excursions and stuff.

Is it normal to take your child carer on holiday with you?
I don't think so but I'd like the opinion of any parents out there because I may be over thinking everything.
I've only been working for him for a couple of months and baring in mind what I described in my previous post this is another thing to add to the creepy list.

Are there any child carers or workers out there that see this as fine?


This is the Island he's told me he wants to go to, It's called Aruba.
It does look amazing, but what if he does try something while we're there? I've got nowhere to go to, I won't know anybody, and I'll be in the same hotel as him (hopefully I'll have my own room- I didn't ask about that I just assumed I would have)

So I'd like a lot of opinions about this and ive got the whole weekend to think about it so hopefully you can help me out!

Where am I going?

I had the opportunity to work as an au pair recently in Wales but I didn't get the job.
So this was going to be about going to Wales..
but instead my brother, dad and I have decided to take a trip to London tomorrow, just for a week.



I haven't been to the UK for about 5 years so I'd appreciate it if anyone could comment below any suggestions for places to go, things to see etc.

Being a blogger

Thank you Alex for tagging me.
What does being a blogger mean to me?

Well, I first discovered blogging when I was about 14 and I used it as a very personal diary but then I stopped for a couple of years because I realised that anyone could read everything, ( I know I'm stupid)

A couple of months ago I thought of starting this blog, I try to stay personal but not to get too personal either.

At 14 I didn't even know there were people that had specific blogs about fashion,tech,food etc.
Or that you could even make a living out of blogging.

Being a blogger, for me, means that I can express myself easily without worrying too much about what people think.

I think in my YouTube videos  you can tell I'm a really shy person, I struggle to think of good ideas for videos because I know I'm under more pressure to match up to other You tuber's.

With blogging It's kind of easier because everyone has their own thing and you're accepted no matter what you blog about.

If you blog about fashion you're accepted by the fashion community and so on.



  I want to know what being a blogger means to you guys so I'm going to tag
