VEDA 2016

I've finally done it. I uploaded my first video to YouTube and it's day one of VEDA 2016. I'd love if you could check it out. 
If we're being honest, I don't expect to upload a video every day. It's going to be more like a video some days in August.  But I'm still very excited and I hope you like it.

I have been gone for a long time now for various reasons. There's not much I can say about the time I've been gone. Nothing too monumental to mention. 

Getting back into blogging is something I'm excited to do. I've missed this but it's something I'm also scared to do. Sitting down with my blog waiting and my head trying to think of something coherent, I've realised that I don't remember how to do this. And I feel like maybe we need a reintroduction. Having said that:

I'm Erin and I'm 16. About two years ago I started this blog and have been writing it on and off ever since. The posts I write often vary between lifestyle, books and films. (And in our current situation Pokemon Go is likely to make an appearance.) 

So now I can't think of anything else to say other than I hope to be posting regularly again and I'm glad to be back. That's all for now. Hope to see you next time, bye 

Now

Now. How do we do this? Through my 3am tears I'll try to explain. 

Depression appears in waves. And when the waves arrives it floods. I have no reason to feel the way I do. No logic. On the outside it seems as if I'm doing better than I have in a long time. But I always hide. I don't like to show how I feel because I don't want people to worry. I guess that's why I'm writing this. As a way of actually sharing. 

I'm not okay right now. It'll pass but right now I'm not okay. That's why sometimes I leave for a while and I don't post because I can't face it. I worry that I will go away again and not post for months. But so far, I've always come back.

The point of writing this was to tell you that right now I can't find the words to say. There's nothing I want to write about but I don't want to stop posting all together. School is slowly killing me but it'll be over in around ten weeks. Maybe then I'll feel more like I can talk because my mind won't be full of the things that happened that day. So if I'm gone for a few weeks, now you know why and maybe I won't feel so bad about it.

6 Films 5 Days

I have had the past week off from school which has been wonderful. In this time my mum also decided to take the week off work and we decided we'd go to the cinema every day (week day). On Tuesday we went twice so here are six short film reviews from five great days.
