Blog 3 - 3 books you need to read

My top 3 books that i have read and would recommend are...

3) Wuthering Heights - i had to study and analyse this book for A-level English. It took a while to get into the story line but when you read a couple of chapters it turns into such a heartbreaking love story. its a very sad, moving read.

2) A child called it - this book is meant to be based on a true story about a boy growing up who was severely bullied by his mother. I read this book twice as i loved it so much and i cried both times. It is extremely sad and made me realize i was to have the family and upbringing i had. 

1) Noughts and Crosses - My favorite book that i have read is Noughts and Crosses. This book is based on a love story where two people cannot be together due to society, race and their families. I read this book on my plane journey home from Australia and the week after went out and bought the sequel..knife edge.

Blog 1 - The One Thing I do everyday

Blog 1
The one thing I do everyday.

Okay so the second blog on this '40 blogs challenge' is the one thing I do everyday. So even though I do a lot of things everyday the most creative/different one I can think of is that I do something productive.
The one thing I do everyday is be productive.

I have a tendency to get bored easily and my brain switches off and I am quite impatient at times, so to keep myself occupied I always do something productive at least once a day. Usually it is clearing out my room, creating/designing cards or writing a blog or diary entry. Other days where I don't have time as I have work I make myself challenges  such a making a certain amount of tips at work or doing a Sudoku puzzle to keep my brain busy. This stops me from getting bored and also makes me feel like I have done something accomplishing throughout the day.

So the one thing I do everyday Is be productive!
