Most people who read this probably won't know me so I thought I'd start with some facts about me:
1. I'm 20 but I look nowhere near my age. I once got ID'd for a 12 rated film.
2. I'm an only child which is pretty lonely but I love my cat and I'm lucky that I'm so close to my parents.
3. I live alone in my Grandad's second flat which is really cute and I'm so thankful that he lets me live there. As I'm his only grandchild I'm incredibly lucky that the flat will be mine in the future which will help me with buying future properties.
4. I HATE spiders.
5. I have a phobia of throwing up. I can't throw up by myself and before it happens, I panic, shake and cry.
6. My aim for life is to own a house with a library and jacuzzi bath with cats and dogs.
7. I'm so close to my family and friends and they are the most important things to me.
8. I love acting.
9. I love music and going to gigs. Some of the gigs I've been to are: Simple Plan, Avril Lavigne, Coldplay, Scouting for Girls, Newton Faulkner, Ivyrise, The Hoosiers, The Proclaimers and Jessie J.
10. My favourite food is pancakes with lemon and sugar.
11. I have an obsession with filming locations... which resulted in my mum and I travelling to PEI in Canada and me crying a lot when I realised that the apparent 'filming locations' were not real. Despite this, if I'm in an area where films I love have been filmed, I will still try to find filming locations.
12. I used to live in Luton until I moved to Hastings when I was six/seven.
13. I used to see the best in everyone and trust everyone but I find it much more difficult now.
14. I'm really emotional. I cry a lot
15. I can be awkward and shy until you get to know me and then I never shut up.
16. I would do anything to make others happy, usually at the expense of myself.
17. I get so excited for Christmas. I love buying presents for my family and making them cry with thoughtful gifts.
18. I like playing games.
19. I own all the Carry On films.
20. Helena Bonham Carter is my favourite actor in the world.
21. I cry at The Fox and the Hound every single time.
22. I don't mind spending time by myself. I think it's so important to have alone time.
23. I'm actually trying to exercise again and go to the gym most days.
24. Toronto is my favourite city in the world and The Spaghetti Factory is my favourite restaurant there. (Free soup or salad and free bread with garlic butter and the mains are all pasta!)
25. My favourite restaurant in Hastings is Fagins Diner and I have the same meal every single time I go there.
26. I always embarrass myself and have a lot of embarrassing and funny stories.
27. I'm quite clumsy.
28. I've been to New York, Canada, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Wales and Scotland.
29. I still can't drive and have already had three driving instructors... I'm going to try and learn to drive this year.
30. I'm still not entirely sure what I want to do with my life.

First post!
Hi I'm Jessie and I've decided to start writing a blog. I've finished university and I'm currently planning to have two years writing, travelling and just living. I haven't really got a plan but I'll hopefully travel to Paris, Italy and Canada and I'll be looking for a job to fund my travels. Obviously if I love what I'm doing I'll continue it and extend my gap years. I'm half Canadian and I live in England but would love to live in either Paris or Canada in the future.
Here I am on my last trip to Canada, PEI, looking incredibly short.
This blog will probably be mostly a collection of random posts but also hopefully a travel blog and a platform for my writing.
Thanks for reading,
Jessie xxx
