The name's Becky; or Rebecca when I'm being posh
Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing about – Benjamin Franklin
If you’re reading this, you probably follow me on Twitter. Maybe Instagram if you’re lucky. In which case, you’ll know I’m a bit of a selfie lover. And to be honest I have no shame in that whatsoever. I wrote about it years ago for Elite Daily - here - I love a selfie. tl;dr... Continue Reading →
I’m 24 on Tuesday. What a grown up. Yeah, as if, I don’t have a clue what I’m doing. This year has been a bit of a clusterfuck. I’ve quit two jobs, I’ve been dumped 3 times (and counting), I’ve been published in Cosmopolitan and Top Gear (sex and seatbelts at its finest), got a... Continue Reading →
I don't mind living in a man's world as long as I can be a woman in it - Marilyn Monroe I work in an office full of guys. Dreamy, right? It’s part and parcel of working in a male dominated industry. I have zero problems with it whatsoever. In one of my offices, most... Continue Reading →

The Young People changed the future of British government. Just us. BOOM. Us 18-24 year olds are facing a... Continue Reading →
Mum - for whenever you next stalk my Twitter and dig this up, I'm sorry. But it makes for a compelling story. When I was, say, 5 or 6, I was at my Nan’s house. I got a placemat to use as a steering wheel, and mimed my mum driving the car, swearing at everyone... Continue Reading →

What do you say when you're asked what your "type" is? Do you say you don't have one? Or do you sum it up with one generic point that draws you into your date of choice? The fact they're over 6ft tall, for example, or with a shining head of ginger hair? What's the cookie-cutter... Continue Reading →
I really need to learn to stop comparing myself to others. Everyone posts their happiest and most amazing photos for everyone to see. I do exactly the same thing so I don’t know why this surprises me. Every photo is edited and filtered and changed to make us look the prettiest, the funniest, like we’re... Continue Reading →

I suddenly realised that I’ve been being posh ol’ Rebecca for nearly a whole year now. Mini whoop! My life is unrecognisable from this point last year.

Here are 5 reasons why we should all be a little more selfish, and embrace the positives that come with... Continue Reading →
As Valentines weekend dawns on us all, Facebook is awash with both romantic pictures of roses and soppy yet hilarious greetings cards (guilty), or opposing rants and declarations of ‘I don’t need no man’ from those less interested in joining in the festivities, or even the bizarre group of people who take the romantic holidays...

When David beat Goliath - the small little dude with his stones and the slingshot or whatever the story was - that was a pretty great victory. The little people triumphing over the giants. Snaps for David. In my life, there aren’t usually many giants that I get to fight with a big stick. For... Continue Reading →
