It's Been A While | Update!

Well Hello There.

Wow, so It's been a very long time since I last posted a blog, after promising to be more consistent!
 

I'm terrible I know.

How about I explain?

So my last post was in June 2016 - almost a year ago - and it was about my therapy sessions.
I was doing rather well if I do say so myself, I was getting out more, stressing out less, and had general control over my life.

I'd travelled to London to see the amazing Melanie Martinez a few months prior with people I barely knew, everything was looking up.



Chav used "Rock Throw" and it was "super effective"

On the 19th July, whilst playing Pokemon go I may add.
I sadly had a rock thrown at my head, by someone who could only be described as an irresponsible child, or "12-year-old fetus" which is what I called him on my snap chat right after the incident. (yes my first reaction was to start a snap chat video, don't judge me)

I would upload photos and videos of the damage done but I doubt anybody would want to see that, even though I am pretty hilarious.

I took a few weeks off work and returned after being told by my GP that I fine. I carried my life on as normal.

And by normal I mean, my control over my mental health was lacking, my medication was upped and I became somewhat a hermit. Thankfully I was still in my therapy sessions and managed to work through everything. My medication is still significantly high, but everything is thankfully under control now.

Kitten Attack
I got a kitten, searched all over for a black cat with white little socks, and came across this little fellow.

His name is Miko, he's an adorable little chap!
 

He does have a few weird quirks, like climbing everything, sticking his paw in the water bowl and licking his paw to drink, he also likes been chased and responds to a whistle like a dog.







Interview?

 
I had an interview for Mac Cosmetics and got to the final stage, but sadly I didn't get the job as it was a new store and they needed people with sales experience, which is fine.

I started my own make-up venture and it seems to be going pretty well, I gained 100+ followers on my make-up page in like an hour. Feel free to give it a like!

My Instagram seemingly blew up as well, I know 500+ followers isn't a lot where Instagram in concerned but for me it is.

Theatre. 

 
Middlesbrough Youth Theatre's show that year was West Side Story, and if you have me on facebook you'll of seen how utterly amazed I was by each and every person who was a part of it. I'm rather proud to be a part of such a great company.




Kitten Attack Part 2
 

Miko needed a friend! We decided to call "him" Gizmo. Till we got him home and discovered he was a she. her name is Freya now. 

Freya enjoys using her claws to climb up your legs, sitting on your head and constant purring.


 

It took a while to get Miko used to the idea of sharing his home with another kitten, A lot of time spent changing the room one was in so they could get used to the smell of each other.

But they love each other now!






So as you can see, everything seemed to be fine...


Sadly something didn't feel right, I was still getting pain and migraines from my injury that had happened around 3/4 months ago.
 

I went to the doctor multiple times and they kept saying that everything was normal, but you just know when something is not right.

Finally I was told that I have concussion and vertigo, but still, I felt like there was something else.


It took 5 visits and 3 different GP's to be heard I've now had a CT scan which was thankfully normal and I'm being referred to a Neurologist so hopefully, I'll know what's wrong with me soon!


I've been off work since the 11th December 2016, and I'm going stir crazy, never thought I'd actually miss working, but I do. This whole "try not to do so much and rest" thing is not good for me!

I NEED TO DO SOMETHING.

 
So for now, I'm spending most of my time, putting make-up on my face for the sheer fun of it, and killing people eardrums on Facebook and snap chat with my singing! (snap chat = natalielobrien)with the occasional funny video, I'm hilarious trust me. Annoying my kittens with non-stop hugs, which Miko loves, Freya, however, does not. My friends escort me in leaving the house if I feel up to it, so I don't go crazy or have a dizzy episode outside on my own.


So other than spending my time in constant pain, everything seems to be good.

And that's my update done.





Again I'm sorry I've been away for so long, but you know a lot has happened. I will try to keep on top of this whole blogger thing, but I won't make any promises this time.


If you'd like a whole post on what my therapy sessions were like and how I've finally managed to get my mental health in control please let me know!
