Hello everyone! It's been a great afternoon so far, been doing a little shopping, hopefully heading off to the beach again soon! But right now we are resting up and waiting for the weather to cool down; I don't want to be getting burnt on the beach now! But before I head out, I thought that it would be fantastic to share my first trip to the beach here in France! If you want to have a little adventure have a little read down below! Enjoy! :)

My experience: 

Fundamentally, this was the third day in France, which would have been the 7th August! Me and Chris were dying to go to the beach, especially me because I haven't been to one in over 10 years! As soon as I arrived I ran onto the sand within nano seconds! The feeling of the warm golden sand beneath my feet was heaven. I was in my happy place, I could taste the salt on my lips, the wind lifting my hair and diminishing the heat and being able to experience this with my loving boyfriend, Christopher. We were there for 3-4 hours at the VERY least, mostly we were laying in the sun side by side, chatting about how we would love to come here again; on top of the fact that we have nearly been together for a year. We had the perfect view, people watching became our thing, we would try and guess their life-stories and relate to them in some way shape and form. On the other hand, we just enjoyed each others company, we were rather soppy, people around us probably thought we were cringy.  In regards to the weather, it was lovely, it wasn't too hot or cold, it was perfect to put your toes in the sea, or more if you wanted to. As you can see in the picture above, me and Chris are very happy, he's my rainbow. 

Have I been ever since?

No. But I have been so busy on the family days out and getting to know everyone that we just haven't had time, but I'm hoping that today or tomorrow I will be able to. I really enjoyed heading to the beach, it's something that I have wanted to do for years; but due to personal issues I couldn't; meaning my anxiety. On the other hand, if I do go again I will tell you what happened, as well as what else I have done throughout the day. 

What could you do on the beach?

If  you are lucky enough to live near a beach, of if you are currently on holiday there are so many things you can do on the beach! One of them being, laying in the sun listening to music! There is nothing better than getting a healthy tan and listening to your favourite tunes; it takes you to another world and releases all the stress your containing. 

If you are not into that, you can always grab some healthy food, when I was at the peach I bought so much fruit with me; it signified summer and positivity, and I felt content eating it as I knew that it was great for my body and health. Or if  you want you can bring sporting equipment and play in the sea or on the sand, this is energetic and lots of fun! It's great to pass time and to get other people involved :).

This is the end of my blog post! Thank you for reading this and I hope you enjoyed this! I love telling you about my day and bringing you with me, I just wish you were here as well having fun! 

Anyhow, what have you been up to today? Or what do you want to talk about? Let me know on my social media or the comment section down below :). 

I will see you not tomorrow but the day after as it's my year anniversary with Christopher tomorrow, and yes I will be writing a blog post based on that :).  

Have a lovely day! Stay safe and stay tuned Little ones, I love you :) x x x

Good morning lovely people! How are you today? Sorry that I didn't post anything else yesterday, but I had a family event which I adored! I tried to take as many pictures as I could, but not many of them wanted their pictures taken. As well as this, I was really enjoying myself, so much banter and chitter chatter was going on. The only pictures I could take was of me and Chris (my boyfriend) on my family's field :).

Family tradition:

Every single year in the Summer, my family have always held a BBQ. This is the only time of the year where all the family can get together and see one another. My mum's side of the family is crazy! But a good crazy! Last year we used the public field-as shown in the above pictures and made our own waterslide! We weren't able to do it this time, simply because people were in so much pain and the mess that came into the house was unbelievable! Normally we throw paint at one another or have  a laser party but we were rather tame this year! Only banter, dogs and chickens! And yes ... That's tame :').

When I was younger I used to hate these family events, I was shy and timid, and they were the complete and utter opposite! But after the years past I've grown up and seen how important spending time with family is. You don't always have to segregate yourself from your aunts and uncles; it's nice to see them, especially if they are filled with banter.

What did we do this year?

Fundamentally, the BBQ starts around 2-3, but I was inviting my boyfriend and he had work, so I had to wait until 5:30 for him to finish. Me and him arrived later on in the day. As soon as my family saw me and Chris they screamed and shouted YYEAHHHH! Welcomed us with open arms, was pleased to see me; and then started the banter with poor Chris. There was food galore, even vegan food! It was delightful; just what me and Chris wanted after work. 

Most of it endured of what I was studying, where I'm going in September, as well as getting to know Chris. After the interviews were done, me and Chris went to the field (their back-garden) and had some alone time. As you can see in the videos and pictures, we went on a romantic walk and just relaxed. 

After that was done, the alcohol was calling my name, I had a few shots as well as cocktails. It came to around 11pm and it was time to go home, we called a taxi and went straight to bed! 

When will the next one be? 

I was talking to my aunt and uncle and they are hoping on hosting another family BBQ in August, closer to my aunts Birthday or my Nan's. Even though she's not here physically, we still like to celebrate her Birthday. This time though I think they might make the home made water-slide. Simply because it's a massive event we are celebrating. Children are going to be there; it'll be fantastic. 

This is the end of the blog post, thank you so much for reading. Hopefully next time I will be able to take more pictures of my family, they don't like their pictures taken, they want to live in the moment. I love you all and my family so very much! I'm pleased to of shared this with you guys! I hope you enjoyed yourself! I will see you again later on today or tomorrow! 

Stay safe and stay tuned Little ones! :D  x x x

Advice

Starting a new job

Hello and good morning Little ones! How have you all been? It's such a beautiful day outside, so I've taken advantage of the weather,and currently writing this blog post in my garden :).

What are you guys doing today? I know that when I've written this I'll be making a fruit salad for my breakfast, along with a smoothie :) 

Today I thought it would be interesting to give you some advice on when you start your new job. I've entered many new working environment, so I thought by sharing my tips and tricks, it would give you more confidence of when you start your first day. 

If you want to find out more have a little read below :).

BE CONFIDENT:

Walk into your new place of work with utter confidence! I'm not saying catwalk to the office, or ask people to kiss your feet; but to show that you have worked hard for this position. To do this, dress the part, don't be scared dressing smart, it shows that you want to be here, you want to make a good impression, and you are not afraid to follow orders. 

When I started my new place at EE, or course I was nervous, but I had worked so hard in order to be there! I hadn't received uniform yet, and they told me to dress, "smart casual", I took this as a pair of jeans and shirt. But I don't do anything half-arsed. I looked online for hours on end, until I could find a polo shirt which matched their uniform colour. I remember Elliot (my manager) saying,"look Ian, she's even matched us on our tops"; he was so pleased and taken back, as he didn't expect me to match them.To some people, this amount of effort would be seen as "keen". Well ... Ignore those comments, you do you! Don't worry about what other people have to say. 

Smile! Your new team are pleased to meet you, they were once in your shoes, they know how it feels to be the new member of staff. They will welcome you with open arms; but you have to set the right impression. Don't be too shy or tedious, because they will find it hard to communicate with you. Instead introduce yourself, find common interests and hold a conversation with each and everyone of them. This will build a better rapport with them; which will make it easier for you and them to communicate later on in the day; especially if you need help with something. For example when I first started working at EE, I was full of excitement and joy, I knew I had worked hard to be there, and I wasn't going to spoil it by behaving in an awkward manor. I already knew Elliot and Ian from my interview, but I saw a new face, he was called Lee. I just said "hello" and he told me things about himself, we found common ground. I done this with all the members of staff it really improved the working environment; as I felt confident around them. 

DO RESEARCH IN YOUR JOB FIELD:

You already know aspects about the company, as you would have had to of researched the basics prior to the interview. But in order to shine in your business it would help to already know key information about: what they offer, what deals to the currently have, any promotions, is a sale about to take place? etc.

In my perspective, I thought that it would be vital to learn: what offers and bundle packages do EE have, researching the new launches and the inside details on the brand new phones, this being: Samsung S7 and the iPhone 6s plus. 

Knowing these key bits of information came into play, as several customers asked me when the launches of the new Samsung and iPhone was being released. As well as helping customers around the shop by telling them what deals we had on etc. 

This not only made me feel good, but it also gave my manager confidence as he knew that he had selected the right candidate.  

ENJOY YOURSELF: 

Remember to enjoy yourself! Although you are at work, and you need to make sure you are keeping on top of your targets, you need to make sure to relax. Being uptight and stressed isn't the way; as your team members will pick up on this and start to feel the same. 

Instead, when the business is quiet, talk to your team, discuss that you are really enjoying your first day, and that you can't wait to see them again. This will set a positive working environment, and when a customer does walk in, they will pick up on the positivity. 

Thank you for reading this post, I hope you enjoyed! I will hopefully see you again later on today, as I will be posting a vegan recipe in the afternoon! 

For the meantime, enjoy the rest of the day, go out and have a picnic! That's what I'll be doing today! :D
I love you all so so much! See you again soon! Stay tuned Little ones! x x x
