The 'L' Plates Are Back!
Last year I miserably failed my driving test and last May was the last time I drove… until now. Today I finally ventured back on the road, a new driving instructor, a fresh pair of eyes and a brand new start. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised.
Having not getting behind the wheel for a whole year I thought it’d take a while to get the hang of things, but that wasn’t the...

A Story That Floods Inspiration. →
Bringing up a child is a frighting prospect for many, but bringing up a child with a medial condition can be virtually unimaginable.
Yet, this is reality for the parents of Ellie Chapman, a six-year old with a rare neurological condition that can affect speech, balance and coordination known as Ataxia. For some forms of Ataxia treatment is available, but for most, there isn’t. However,...

Happy Birthday to My Queen
Today marks the 19th Birthday of my dear friend Kate Elizabeth Hamer. Having developed firm foundations at the start of 6th Form, our friendship has gone from strength to strength every year. It’s quite hard to imagine what the world would be like without ‘My Queen’, and several words and phrases like ‘Peasant Wagons’, ‘Onwards ever striding...

Batman's flying into... Nottingham?!
Can you remember this picture taken back in December?
Well, if you can’t here’s a refresher. This was taken outside Wollaton Hall in Nottingham just just over 6 months ago. But now this magnificent architectural structure is to play host to some famous faces over the coming weeks as filming for Batman: The Dark Knight Rises.
Wollaton hall is to act as the residence of Bruce...

Happy Fathers Day!
Even though it is almost over, I thought it best to take time out to write this message about another inspirational person in my life - my Dad. For someone who has been there since I was born, there isn’t enough ways to say thank-you.
I’ve always had a good relationship with my Dad. In fact, I feel like the older I’ve got, the better relationship I’ve had with him. When...

A Day to Remember.
Yesterday was possibly one of the most inspirational days I’ve had in a very long time, it was so busy but totally amazing. First off I met with Kate and we went to a little caffe that we’d been going to every week since we started 6th form. Of course the reminiscing began. Even though I haven’t been back to 6th Form for a year it really has felt like a lifetime.
After...

Catfight scene in Wicked.
So, once Dorothy is off to see the wizard here's the conversation you didn't see between the Wicked Witch of The West, and The Good Witch of The East - Glinda.
Elphaba: I wanted something to remember her by. All that was left of her were those shoes and now that wretched little farmgirl has walked off with them! So I would appreciate some time alone, to say goodbye to my sister!
Glinda: Elphie. Don't blame yourself. It's dreadful. It is. To have a house fall on you. But... accidents will happen.
Elphaba: You call this an accident?
Glinda: Well... A regime change. Caused by a bizarre and unexpected...twister of fate.
Elphaba: So you think cyclones just appear? Out of the blue? No, of course you never, you're too busy telling everyone how wonderful everything is!
Glinda: Well, I'm a public figure now! People expect me to...
Elphaba: Lie?
Glinda: To be encouraging! And what exactly have you been doing? Besides riding around on that filthy old thing!
Elphaba: Well, we can't all come and go by bubble.

My blog is officially an academic success.
Who would’ve thought I’d be writing to tell you that my blog is actually a success academically? When I started this blog back in December I knew that Inspirational Aspirations To Stardom would be part of an assignment. Did I think I’d enjoy it? No. Did I think I’d carry it on for so long? Definitely not. Yet, over the past few months my blog has become like my baby,...

Reading: My new source of inspiration.
Some people become addicted to things like drugs and alcohol, others develop an unhealthy shopping addiction. Recently however, I confess to myself that I’m addicted to books. Growing up as a dyslexic child was never easy. From anyone who suffers from the learning difficulty you’ll know that every day tasks like learning to read and write become almost impossible. Yet here I am,...

All who win joy must share it; happiness was born a twin.
– Lord Byron
Anonymous asked: you were a key figure in the attempted assasination of bieber in summer 2010. do you maintain your innocence in the crime or admit that yourself and your fellow queen were really the masterminds behind the whole plot; and HRH Q of F, also known as Ruth 'The Feral' Goodwin was merely a red-herring, a scapegoat for your involvement?

This woman couldn’t have made me think more positively ever. From now on, whenever I think of something pessimistic, I’ll “think like a Queen”.
