There’s no question that voting is important no matter your age, but typically the percentages of 18-24 and 25-34 years olds voting is 𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 than in older demographics. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ When I started researching why this happens, I saw some pretty dumb reasons that people gave for not voting:⁣ ⁣ πŸ™„ β€œToo busy, conflicting work”⁣⁣ πŸ™„ β€œNot interested, my vote won’t count”⁣⁣ πŸ™„ β€œDidn’t like the candidates” ⁣⁣ πŸ™„ β€œRegistration problems”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ It may sound harsh, but if you fit into any one of those categories above then you 𝘴𝘦𝘳π˜ͺ𝘰𝘢𝘴𝘭𝘺 need to re-evaluate. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I hope I am preaching to the converted, but if not, here’s some reasons why 𝐯𝐨𝐭𝐒𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐬 𝐒𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭:⁣⁣ ⁣ 😌 You get to have a say on who represents you and makes the decisions on issues you care about.⁣⁣ 😌 You can get politicians working for young people - if we show were engaged they’re more likely to make policies that support our demographic because they’ll want our votes next time!⁣⁣ 😌 If you don’t turn up, it’s presumed you’re just uninterested!⁣⁣ 😌 You can leave your ballot blank, or spoil it, if you don’t agree with any of the political parties, and by doing so, you become a voice for the disengaged. If there are a lot of blank/spoiled votes it’s a sign the political parties need to think more about what they need to do to reconnect with these voters. ⁣⁣ 😌 Even if the party you vote for doesn’t win or you live in a safe seat - your vote means you’re giving parties your backing, which means they’re more likely to follow through with their promises or adopt ideas from other parties that were popular.⁣⁣ 😌 And of course, it goes without saying that we must remember the many movements like the women’s suffragettes who campaigned for the right to vote. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ SO BLOODY WELL VOTE πŸ—³β£β£ ⁣⁣ (Please share if you agree)

Let’s talk about 𝐦𝐒𝐧𝐝𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐬 πŸ•³ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ A mindset trap is when you dream about succeeding in something but then become overwhelmed with negative thoughts that overpower your ambition πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Ever tell yourself any of this? ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ πŸ•³ I don’t know where to start⁣⁣ πŸ•³ I’m not an expert ⁣⁣ πŸ•³ It’s not perfect ⁣⁣ πŸ•³ Someone else is doing it better ⁣⁣ πŸ•³ What will people think?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ That’s a mindset trap πŸ•³.

Pulling out The Ghost of Christmas Past because, much to my dismay, we didn’t manage to sort out a tree this weekend (the sofa hasn’t even arrived yet so who was I kiddin’). Jealous of everyone who’s had a proper Christmassy weekend 😒⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Christmas pending... πŸŽ„
It really truly is... 🏠β™₯️ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣ The builders are done and now the hard work painting and furnishing our house begins.

β™₯️ 𝘚𝘩𝘒𝘳π˜ͺ𝘯𝘨 𝘡𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦... because in June there were two thousand of you and now here we are in November with 3000!!!😱 ⁣⁣⁣ This year has been 𝐦𝐚𝐝! I only shared my blog with friends and family in March knowing I’d been nominated for an award, which I later went on to win πŸ†. I still kick myself that people want to read, listen and engage with my twenty-something blabbering. I’m so grateful when people reach out and say something has resonated with them πŸ‘πŸ». Seeing it grow so quickly, it’s safe to say 2019 has been the best year yet! ✨⁣⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣ All I can say is that 2020 is going to be a big one... πŸ™ŒπŸ» It can’t get more 𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘳𝘒𝘯π˜₯ than a blog about being in your 𝘡𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘡π˜ͺ𝘦𝘴 in 𝟸𝟢𝟸𝟢, can it? ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #thisismyyear #twentyeverything
My mum used to nag 18 year old me to take a coat on a night out and I never listened. Now look πŸ‘€
It’s coming up to that time of year when it’s acceptable to eat 3 mince pies before 11am πŸŽ„πŸŽ…πŸ» and not give a πŸ’© about the ten stone you’re going to put on between now and New Year πŸ₯‚πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ
#gifted | ♻️ If you’re horrified when the bar man serves you a drink with a plastic straw but you’re still using plastic toothbrushes then listen up! 🍹🦷⁣ ⁣ We don’t need to clog up our oceans and landfill with more plastic 🚯. Using a bamboo toothbrush is a great way of reducing harmful waste in our environment 🌎✨.⁣ ⁣ Disposing of a bamboo toothbrush is easy, remove the bristles (pop in an old plastic bottle or something that you’re recycling, then put it into your recycling bin as normal)β™»οΈπŸ—‘, then place the handle in the garden waste bin or on the compost heap πŸ‚. It's that easy!πŸ‘πŸ»β£ ⁣ @bamboo_and_co have a really reasonable pack of five bamboo toothbrushes to get you and your family sorted (head to the link in their bio or search for them on amazon) πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§β€πŸ‘¦. My family already love theirs, thank you so much!
