1 of 4

By
Now that summer is fast approaching, I would love to get back into my writing. (Even though my summer is probably busier than my whole year haha.)

I thought I would start of with a post about my family and just basically an excuse to tell them how great they are.

So I'm the youngest of 4, which means I have 3 older siblings to set me a good example... I mean most of the time they do!

Gezz (32), Meg (28), Tom (30) Charlie (19)
Gezz (30), Meg (26), Tom (28), Charlie (17)

As you can see from the ages, I am the baby of the family by quite a few years. My oldest brother was 13 when I was born- Took them a while to realise what was missing aye ;)

Being 1 of 4 is a very interesting experience, as you often get forgotten or called the wrong name (I get called Meg more than Charlie...) There's been a few times where my mum will get down all the names before my name.

However I have figured there are some pretty great positives.

It's not always you doing the washing up because it gets shared between 4 of you- I mean it should anyway haha. 

You can always play a board game, big or small because you'll always have enough players.

The chances of me being an aunt are pretty high, which makes me super excited. (No pressure, sorry!)

But most of all, I'll always have at least 3 pretty great friends supporting me through adulthood and having my back.

Siblings are great and I definitely haven't always appreciated them as much as I should.

I've always loved you all, but I can show it more now that we don't all love under one roof haha!

Just know that, I'll always be all of your biggest fans in what you do and you all make me super proud!

Lots of Love Charlie x

Comparision

By
So i guarantee everyone reading this has compared themselves to another person or object at least once. Comparison is very common in teenagers especially, but most of us do it. In a way it is only part of our instincts as we all get envious, but it is also really unhealthy. If you're constantly wishing to be something else, then you can't really ever love yourself can you? Then how do you expect somebody else too if you can't. There is a fine line between passively saying "I like her hair I wish mine fell like that" and saying "I like her hair, why can't I be like her. she's so much of a better person than me". There will be times where you will be jealous of somebody's appearance or their talent or personality etc. But their qualities or skills do not define your qualities or skills. What I mean by that Is just because somebody's qualities are high, it doesn't make you any better than them or any worse. Nobody can compare themselv

Are books losing popularity?

By
Are books losing popularity?  So personally i believe they are. Now let me explain my reasons why. So many years ago before technology most people would read books as a pastime out of enjoyment. Now that color TV'S, mobile phones and the internet are around less and less people are reading books. Also a high number of the population would prefer to watch the film as it's easier and requires less concentration. This means that the majority of people my generation (Late 1990's+) are just not interested in reading in fear of looking uncool and like a "nerd". Now obviously it is in the curriculum to read when you first start school, so most people can actually read they just chose not too. Me being an avid reader and lover of books cannot see this nonsense. but unfortunately it's the truth of today's society. So my second reasoning is fairly similar to the first as it's also down to technology. So i'm sure you've all heard of E-readers and ki

Religion...

By
Now I know religion is quite a conversational subject as every body has their own beliefs due to free will. But I would like to just explain it from my own belief and what I think on the matter. The religion I follow and believe in is Christianity and I have done for the past 8 months. Being a christian is a huge part of my daily life and I take pride in the fact I have a father as amazing as god. It's so reassuring to me that one day I will be reunited with god in heaven after serving him here on earth for many years. It saddens me that people get mocked, beaten up, even killed for believing and serving god. Most Christians mean no harm to anyone and all they wish to do is praise gods creations and spread the word of his gospel. Within my church family I know some pretty amazing people and I've had the pleasure of appearing in their lives due to god and I find that phenomenal that one god can have so much power. I believe that god gave his only son away to forgive the sins o
