Author: George Orwell
Blurb: Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal.
Why I started reading it: It's one of the novels I'm studying as part of English Literature. Loved it the first time I read it and continue to enjoy it each time I re-read it. Despite holding quite political views, it's such a gripping novel. Not the happiest, I'll admit (but what do you expect from a dystopian novel), however there is a nice sprinkle of romance in there.

Quotes
Hey Internet Friends,
Happy New Year! As you will notice over the next few months, I have decided to alter the layout of this blog. But, on with todays post, New Years themed quotes.

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.' - Neil Garman
'Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.' - Oprah Winfrey
'Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering "It will be happier".' - Alfred Lord Tennyson

New Years Resolutions
Hey Internet Friends,
So today I thought I'd share with you guys my New Years resolutions as we are so close to 2017.
1. Alter my blog/blog posts to make it more structured.
2. Relax more and chill out.
3. Experiment with my art more (styles and materials).
4. Read more books as often as possible.
5. Keep on top of washing my makeup brushes.
As you can see all these resolutions are fairly simple. Therefore I know I can stick to them. Small steps at a time. I like to keep my goals achievable as I find I'm more likely to stick to them and notice progress.

Thoughtful Thursday - Reflection on 2016
Hey Internet Friends,
So today I thought I'd look back on how this year has gone. I am going to split this into mini sections so I don't ramble and obviously still keep some things more private. This is just a rough overview of how things have gone this year, hopefully with quite a positive attitude. Without further-a-do, here is my reflection on 2016. Enjoy.
Blog - This year I have managed to stick to my schedule and put up posts when they're meant to go up all year. This is likely to be down to the many reminders on my phone and notebook of ideas so I can plan in advance. This is definitely something I will continue to do in 2017.
School - So, 2016 was the year I sat my GCSE exams and I will admit I worked my backside off revising. Thankfully, it all paid off and I was accepted into the Sixth Form I wanted to go to, as well as onto all the courses I wanted. The start of A-Levels has been quite stressful but I'm enjoying it.
Work - This was the year I got my first job! I was taken on as a Christmas Temp. back in October. I am loving where I work as it got me into the festive spirit early and I work with some really nice people. It's helping me gain confidence as I deal with strangers every week.
Relationships - In terms of friendships, these have definitely changed, but I'm glad to say I've been forming closer bonds with better people to keep me on the right track. Romantic relationships on the other hand, well, lets just say 2016 hasn't really been my year.
Hobbies - In my spare time (which there isn't really a lot of), I have been reading lots of book and listening to a lot of music. I've also managed to find some time to plan blog posts, organise things and get better at art.
So, that's a quick reflection on how 2016 has been for me. Hope you enjoyed.
