Adorkable and fetching music

I'm a nu-folk girl all the way and autumn, I find, is always the best time for nu-folk music. It seems to bring everything to life.

Here's what I'm currently listening to:

What's your favourite type of music for Autumn? Tell us in comments below!

Youtube!

So, I've decided to try out making youtube videos!

I'm not sure how long this will last, or if people really care about what I'm saying, but then again, I thought that about this blog and we've reached 250 views!

What's going to happen is I'll be uploading two videos a week, one on a Wednesday and one on a Saturday. The Wednesday video will be a general vlog by me, talking about what ever's on my mind. The Saturday video will a video called 'Sister Saturday'. This will be a video starring my sister and me either vlogging, doing a sketch, or possibly singing.

Here's the first of my Wednesday vlogs, hope you like it!

Transitions

So, I've just come home from my school's sixth form open evening. And it's only just hit me that I'm growing up. Yes, I know, that a really stupid thing to say, but hear me out. I'm currently 15 going on 16 and I always thought I had everything figured out. And to an extent, I do. I know exactly what I want to do for A-Levels, I'm pretty sure about what I want to do at Uni and I have an idea at what I would like to have a career in. But, to me, these have always been dreams and ideas, not plans, and certainly not the set future. Now I'm being asked to make these decisions. And it's scared the crap out of me, to be honest. 

It's just so permanent. So final. I just really want life to slow down. I feels like it's all slipping away from me, like I'm watching someone else make the decisions. It's scary. 

Many of you who actually know me in person will think that I'm very open with my feelings. True is that I'm an iceberg. 90% of me is below the surface, and I prefer it to stay that way. I find it very uncomfortable to voice my feelings and just let them happen. I suppose that's why I like playing music so much. I can just hide behind someone else's words or melody. I think what I'm really scared of is not the actual emotion, it's the thought that if I start, I'll never stop. I don't want people knowing exactly how I feel. I'm more comfortable in my own head.

I digress.

To be frank, Sixth Form Open Evening just scared me more than I was already. This is the rest of my life I'm choosing.

Shit.

Here's a little reminder

Just take a deep breath and be grateful you're alive.

This too shall pass.

Adorkably fetch; what does it actually mean?

So, Adorkably Fetch has been up for almost two months now and in that short space of time, we've managed to achieve some targets I set myself at the beginning of this project. We've reached over 200 page views, over 20 post and I haven't gotten bored and stopped posting (and I hope I never will!).

So what does Adorkably fetch actually mean?

Adorkable and Fetch are two words used a lot by the bloggers/vloggers/tumblrs (read: me) of the internet. 

The first word, Adorkable, is a combination word (a bit like a ship name) that combines adorable and dork, meaning something or someone that possesses nerdy/dorky qualities but is adorable either in spite or because of that fact.

The second word, Fetch, you may be more familiar with. Popularised by the 2004 film Mean Girls, Gretchen Wieners in particular, it has only really caught on with the internet (read: tumblr) and 'hipsters' being all ironic and stuff. Personally, I think it's hilarious and should catch on.

I liked the words and squished them together. 

So, there you have it.

What are your two favourite words? What would you call your blog? Tell us in comments below!
