A Little Voice In a World Full of Noise: Save Dippy!

I don't know if any of you have ever been to the Natural History Museum in London; but in their main hall stands Dippy the diplodocus. After 109 of standing proudly in his place, the museum are now thinking of replacing him with a blue whale's skeleton.

Don't get me wrong I'd love to check out a blue whale's skeleton. That'd be frickin' awesome! But I don't want to sacrifice Dippy for it.

As I have previously stated on here, the Natural History Museum is one of my favourite places on Earth, and Dippy is my favourite thing in that massive building. Which is why I'm here with the link provided below, asking you to take a minute of your time to sign this petition and keep my precious Dippy in his rightful place.

Thank you!

Jottings In My Notebook: Aims for 2015.

Earlier this morning before I hit the hay, I pulled out my holographic T-Rex notebook and on the top of a fresh page scribbled '2015'. Then I started to jot down some of the main things I wanted to achieve and work towards in the coming 365 days of 2015. At first I didn't think the list would been very long as I'd never really be one for making any form of New Year's Resolution. But the length of my list once I had finished it was quite surprising; and I didn't even write down everything I wanted to achieve in 2015, just the stuff I felt was most important to me!

So here's a little look into what I want to get out of my next 365 page chapter:

  • Really make an effort to practise mindfulness,
  • Make yoga and hooping part of my daily/weekly routine,
  • Actually use the library,
  • Become more confident, especially in terms of body confidence,
  • Go to a film premier,
  • Go to more concerts -at least 3,
  • Open a savings account with the aim of saving £1,000 by the end of the year,
  • Go ice skating more,
  • Write more,
  • Read more,
  • Take more photos,
  • Make more of an effort in learning Italian,
  • Help people more -especially those in need- in some way or another,
  • Give less of a fuck about people's thoughts/opinions of me,
  • Realise and take note of who my real friends are -hold onto them and let the others go.
What are some of the things you guys are hoping to get out of 2015?
