Sex,Scandal & Youtube.

I woke up this morning to a news feed which had gone mental, sadly i've had a few days off from keep track on social media, so you can imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning and my phone was full of messages about several Youtuber's being involved in a consent/sex abuse scandal.

I use the word scandal delicately, I do not mean to demean anyone who has been effected by this, instead appraise them for being so brae in stepping out.You're brilliant and beautiful and wonderful and well well done!!!

Internet Trolls by definition are the people these types of websites try to stay away from, we actively fight to make sure everyone feels loved and supported no matter what they are going through. I don't use Tumblr as much as I used to, but after seeing some of the support there is available there It's made me re-think and want to rejoin the community. Until Today.

Carrie Hope Fletcher is my main topic of issues.
And before you all go crazy and attack me, I think it is utterly diabolical that there are some people who are blaming her for this crazy Alex Day situation, and by 'blame' I mean accusing her of  Victim Blaming. Can we all just stop, take a deep breath and think for a second.

Imagine you were in a relationship with someone you have seen the best and worst of, imagine that recently in particular he had gone out of his way, publicly apologised (as he should have) and openly discussed the changes he has undergone. Okay? still with me? Good. Now imagine your brother has just had his first child, that you are an aunty, and on the same day you have found out the man you love is being accused /publicly accepted these accusations? How the hell would you feel?

God bless the woman for having an escape to Disney for a while! She has done absolutely nothing wrong, and anyone suggesting otherwise needs a good hard slap by reality. She is a single minded, free woman, not an accessory to Alex Day so stop bashing her for supporting someone important to her.

After seeing all of these things, I can't help but hope she has somebody to talk to about all of this, because effectively, certain people are beginning to ruin what should be an amazing time for her and her family.

My boycott of Pizza Hut.

hello hello hello everyone!

I'm sorry, I've been gone quite a while but I've had possibly the busiest two weeks of my life! Being back at University is one of those things, suddenly everything is happening at once and I've been left a bit flustered!
However, I'll try and narrow it down a little bit!

My flat mate broke her arm, the poor thing! another drunken night where she was picked up, dropped and fractured her radius in the process, daft woman! I forgot how much A & E freaks me out! However moving forwards I was lucky enough to get a chance to see Les Miserables in the West End on Wednesday!
It was superb i have never felt so alive after leaving a theatre, the musical was amazing and I must admit, despite my concerns Carrie Fletcher was utterly magnificent as Eponine, she was beautiful and perfect and I couldn't flaw one single thing about her!

After leaving the theatre, my two flatmates and myself decided on going to pizza hut as a treat after being so good in healthy eating habits for 2 weeks! We arrived, were left waiting for 15 minutes before finally being seated. Once we were seated we had a table of 5 put on a table of four next to us, meaning one of the gentlemen was practically sat on my lap! My mood began to sink fairly quickly.
After 20 minutes waiting, my friend finally asked if we could have our food and drink order taken
(time is currently at 45 minutes, not even received a drink) the girl then preceded to tell me that she can't take order.

-pause-

I understand what it is like on a busy shift in a restaurant, my job is as a waitress, what i don't understand is how someone can be so rude and disregarding of your feelings as a paying guest within the establishment. It made me angrier.

-play-

finally 10 minutes after she said she had gone to get someone to take our order, the grumpiest man on the planet took our order and left, hopefully putting it through. May I add that at this stage, the table next to us ordered their meal ten minutes after us, therefore; why on earth did they receive their starter before us?
We waited another 10 minutes before finally having enough and walking out. I was raging by this point and wanted to kill someone!

I intend to pay good money when i go into any food establishment, what i don't expect is to be treated like i'm invisible, even if it is busy!

Rant over guys!
