101 Dalmatians

 

Dalmatians. Took me ages to work out how to spell that.

 

Hi. No I haven't turned into Cruella di vil over night (at least I think I haven't?), instead something far more exciting has happened. If you would be so kind as to queue the drumroll....
 

This is official my 101st blog post!!

Here's to a million and 1 Dalmatians more. Millie x

My blogging inspiration

To tell the truth I don't really have a method as such, not like some people who have a planning diary and all that. I get an idea, I think of how to tell you about the idea in a funny/interesting way, then I write it, get someone to grammar check and hit publish. End of. But I get the ideas in the first place from all sorts of things.


1. Taking a picture and basing the post around it.
    I am constantly taking pictures and the people I am with think I am really weird for just suddenly stopping in the middle of the pavement, oh look a pretty flower, I must take a photo. Jess definitely thought I was weird when I took a picture of my veggie burger in that diner for this post!

2. Reading.
    Either books/guides/how to's or other people's blogs. I obviously don't copy content, but reading other peoples blogs is a really good way of getting ideas to adapt for yourself. Say I saw a blogger post their current playlist, so I decided to post my own, way back then this time last year.

3. Tv/documentary's/films/cinema.
    This is obvious, I am constantly blogging about movies.

4. Things people say.
Some of the funniest things I have posted were based on something that I either word puked or someone else did. I once did an entire post on the things me and a friend said at a sleepover.

5. Crafty stuff, recipes and how to's
    Beware if you bake anything in my house as a picture will soon appear on my blog!

6. Music
    I listen to a song *oh that's nice, lets gush about it on my blog*.

How do you get inspiration? Millie x

2 months of resolutions, let's take a look back

This time two months ago I posted a resolutions post, like most bloggers. Now I decided to look back and see how I was doing with them!

Blog regularly Well, I think I can tick this one!

 

Try not to break my phone This was always a bit of a silly one, but I am pleased to say that I haven't broken it....yet!

 

Cook more Ahh, yes. Well. This failed drastically. I even forgot this was one of my resolutions until I looked back!

 

Take a run or at least a walk everyday This was never going to work. But I do run or walk about 3 times a week on average, so not exactly, but halfway there?!

 

Dance better  Yeh, well I don't actually know if this is happening? But I am so trying harder.

Ok, basically what happened here is that I didn't follow my own advice. I didn't do the whole organise into small steps, stick stickers on your calendar thing. Nor did I follow advice number 6. which was, Don't give up on small things. Like rain. It is so hard to force yourself to run in the rain. I mean who wants to run down a country lane in the rain? That is basically just like asking to ruin your leggings with mud.

Anyway I think the conclusion of that is, basically:

I suck at keeping at things, except things I want to do, aka blog, dance....xx

Post ideas that failed drastically

Hi, so this question is directed to all those other bloggers that I know are out there.

Do you ever have an amazing idea, then write it up and it sucks?

You know when you think "this is going to be sooo amazing" and then you write it and you basically made yourself sound like the world biggest idiot?

Or is this just me?

I do this so much.... here are some of my failed blogging ideas

History of nail polish
    That was just too boring.

My take on various slogans
    That was never going to work out right!

Styling 60's mini skirts
    This didn't work because I don't actually own a 60's mini, which was kind of a key part.

Pantomime review
    Cause your not allowed to take pictures at a pantomime so it would just have been me laughing at stuff and no one else would get why it was funny.

Kylo Ren fan thing
    Mainly because I thought no one would comment/share or think it was a good idea!

People getting stupid over celebs
    I might still do this actually!

Honey I shrunk the kids review
    I thought the movie was too old and it would be boring

10 things people thought I said but I didn't
    I got this idea after Jess thinking I said something totally different to what I actually did say.
The idea didn't work out though so I put it as number 4 on this post instead.

So is this just me who gets stuck?
I will see you soon with some cute pictures I took over the last few days x

10 weird things I wrote in my blogging ideas pad

1. Umm.... - what a waste of paper.

2. Juice box - WOW. My imagination is beyond even my own understanding sometimes.

3. Kylo-Ren - completely understandable.

4. Liar Liar - maybe I was angry? Or I could have been listening to that Avicii song.

5. Under the sea - who knows?

6. a-door-a-bull/adorable - hahahaha I'm sooo funny.... NOT??!!

7. Grape scented pencils - Ok hear me out on this! I was writing with my new Smiggle stuff.

8. Some day my prince will come - Can everyone please go aww.... Actually I had been watching Cinderella but whatever....

9. ManOhMan - No comment.

10. It was a fairy tale ending.... - continuing the Cinderella theme.

So there you have it? I'm not really sure what goes on in my head, but it provides entertainment! x
