END OF SUMMER

Saturday, 6 September 2014
I'm actually really sad right now because I feel as if this summer has gone so fast - too fast. It feels as if I've done nothing when in fact I've done plenty; gone to the beach a few times, been to the park and played football, had movies days, went swimming and sunbathing at a hotel, shopping in town etc... But I kinda hoped that I would make more out of this summer and do lots more amazing things but I didn't and lately that's been really getting to me, I mean I know it's my fault because at any given time I could of just gone out with one of my friends and hopped on a ferry to Brixham, I just didn't, because as I always say, effort.

That bugs me. Yes, it's effort to do something, anything but most of the time, if not all the time, that effort IS worth it! So I think I'm going to make a mini test for myself - do more things that I wouldn't usually do and don't let anything hold me back. Ugh, that sounds extremely cheesy and cringe-y but it's true is it? There's always a reason you can find as to why you can't or won't do something, isn't there? So from now on, I'm not going to be looking for excuses or reasons (such as 'that requires way too much effort'), I'm just going to do whatever it is that I want to do, unless it's dangerous, don't really want to die any time soon...

Okay, so this turned into a really ramble-y post but a lot has been on my mind recently and this one of the things.. What's something that you've wanted to do but you've always found a reason as to why you shouldn't? Tell me in the comments!

VISITING CORNWALL'S SEAL SANCTUARY

Sunday, 31 August 2014
So last week I was in Cornwall, we visited a lot of lovely places over the week but one of the ones that stuck out most for me was when we visited the Seal Sanctuary in Cornwall (as you can probably gather by the title of this post).

The Cornish Seal Sanctuary rescues around 40 pups each season. It rescues them and hospitalises them back to health before releasing them back into the wild, if they are found to have a problem that means they are not safe in the wild, they will then offer a permanent residency to the Seal. They help Grey and Common Seals (no they are not chavvy seals, just the largest group of Seals I suppose)

They also do the same to Sea Lions, Californian and Pantagonian, they're also just as cute! They also provide homes for other animals such as Penguins, Otters, Sheep, Ponies and Goats!

Seals are fast becoming my favourite animals, actually, scrap that, they are my favourite animals! I will attach a few pictures at the end of this post. Only of the Seals and Penguins, as I didn't charge my camera woops.

What are your favourite animals then?
