8 Things Women Are Tired Of Hearing

In this era, where women have the ability to achieve whatever they want, whether it's their ideal career, a family, both or just being happy with whatever they want.

However, we are still being made to feel that we have to live up to certain expectations and are often questioned why, when we haven't made certain decisions.

Here are a few of the things women are tired of hearing.

Feeling That Wanderlust

Wanderlust is a feeling that I can't seem to shake. I've barely seen a speck of the world but the little bit I have seen, makes me want to explore even more, immerse myself in other cultures, witness the different landscapes, and of course eat all the food.

End of an Era

So the time has come where my university career at Nottingham Trent has come to an end, after three long years filled with ups and downs, where I've made some amazing memories and some of the best friends. It's time to say goodbye to the life as a free uni student and welcome in the world of adulthood.

Third Year Thoughts

It's been a while since I last wrote a post and the reason for that is because being a final year university student is incredibly time-consuming and mentally exhausting. With deadlines fast approaching and exams, stress has been at all time high.

Trials and Tribulations of a Single Girl

Recently my friend tagged me in a comical post called '15 Things All Single Girls Are Completely Tired Of Hearing. ' Though I laughed at it and agreed with the basis of the post, it got me thinking about certain things.

Brace yourself...slightly wordy rant coming ahead

Travel Throwback #1 Lake Bled

Travel is something that I love to do and there are so many places that I can't wait to explore. I want to see everywhere, that is the goal. However I have had the chance to explore Europe and even though I've barely scraped the surface, I did manage to see some beautiful places. So I thought I'd post a travelling throwback to some of the places I've seen. Hopefully they'll inspire you to take a visit.

One of the places I had the chance to visit and explore was Lake Bled in Slovenia.

Influential Women

With Mother's day and International Women's day having just passed, I thought I'd write a post dedicated to women I find most influential. I think each woman in there own right can be influential, whether it's a mother to their daughter, a teacher to their student, even a celebrity to a fan. Because there are so many, I thought I'd narrow it down to the top three famous influential women.

Hi I'm Alisha, and I'm a tech addict

So a thought occurred to me the other day, that I'm a tech addict.

It was a Tuesday night when my beloved iphone stopped working and because it's old (I haven't moved on to the 6 just yet) I thought I'd leave it alone for a while. Maybe all the useless swiping on Twitter and Instagram had tired it out. But the next morning it was this blank screen and I began to freak out at the expense of replacing it or repairing it.

I skipped my mornings lecture to go on a hunt to see what I could do, if I could get a new one or get this one fixed or if my mum would send me her old one.

It seemed the last option was the answer. I dreading the few days I'd have to wait without a working phone. What could I go on when I was bored or needed to look busy? I wouldn't be able to listen to my music which is a big deal for me or check my messages. I wouldn't be able to communicate, seeming to forget that I could just speak to my flat mates in person.

In the end, my phone started working again, so all the anxiousness was pointless. But it did get me thinking, that maybe I am a tech addict. Now I'm not a computer genius or anything, I go on my laptop as much as the next person, but the feeling of being lost without my phone made me realise I must be one.

Now this is troublesome. I don't want to be someone who is always checking their phone when I'm out with friends or when we've gathered for our weekly movie nights. To me, that's rude and just pointless, why would I be contacting other friends, when I'm in the company of others.

I've had times when I've not been attached to my phone but I was always distracted, at a festival, or when I've been away and refused to pay the extra money to connect to those back home. But is this what it's come to? That I need distracting so I won't go on my phone?

Sometimes I'm envious of the older generation, who like my mum are allergic to technology. Only sometimes though.

So this is me admitting that I'm a tech addict and I hope I'm not the only one. Whether it's to your phone, tablet, or laptop. And I'm not saying that this is a bad thing, but it's not something I want to be. I miss having a conversation when I'm looking in to the eye of the person, of going to a gig and not seeing people witness it through the screen.

So as a very, very late resolution, my aim is to try and not be attached to my phone, and fully appreciate the world without seeing it through a tiny screen.

But this doesn't mean my phone can break on me again.

Top Five Albums

Anyone who knows me well, knows that I am always listening to music. Whether it's walking to the bus, going shopping or just relaxing in my room. Music is always playing. I wait eagerly for award shows such as The Grammy's or The Brits which I loved watching the other night.

So I thought I'd show my top 5 albums that seem to be constantly on repeat at the moment.

Number 1 has to be of course James Bay's Chaos And The Calm.
