A little peek into the things I do purely for fun — from getting lost in books and baking sweet treats, to Pinterest scrolling sessions, comfort TV binges, and a very on-pause Sims obsession. These are my small joys, the things that make everyday life feel a bit more me. 💛📚🧁📺

✨ What’s in a Name? Apparently… a Whole Story
A name, a surprise, and a whole lot of backstory. From almost being a boy to nearly being called Charmaine, this is the cosy little story behind my name — Kimberley.
Chalkboards, Cupcakes & Big “What If” Dreams
Childhood dreams don’t always disappear — sometimes they just evolve. A little look back at wanting to teach, loving childcare, and quietly dreaming of a life filled with cake.
🚫📱 Please Return to Sender: Modern Social Media
If I could un-invent one thing, it would be modern social media — especially the video-everything era. I grew up when social media was simple: statuses, selfies, blurry nights out, and being trusted to come home when the streetlights turned on. No algorithms. No constant judgement. Just life, lived offline first.
🐘🐧 Paws, Trunks & Cheeky Faces: Why Picking One Favourite Is Impossible
Can’t choose just one favourite animal — my heart says elephants, penguins, apes and cats. Gentle giants, cheeky troublemakers, endlessly fascinating souls, and the ultimate vibe companions. Apparently, I’m an animal multi-lover… and yes, I’m still trying to convince O.H a cat belongs in our home 🐾💛

Two childhood comfort items followed me through every stage of growing up — a teddy bear that’s now loved by my youngest, and a doll affectionately renamed Scary Mary. Proof that some attachments never really leave us… they just get passed on. 🧸💛
🚗💨 If I Had a Billboard… It’d Definitely Not Be Deep
If I had a freeway billboard, it wouldn’t be deep or life-changing — it’d be funny. The kind of message that makes you smile mid-commute and reminds you that life doesn’t always have to be serious. Sometimes, a laugh is more than enough. 💛
⏳ One Foot in Yesterday, One Eye on Tomorrow
Caught between memories and maybes, I find myself living in both the past and the future. Some moments bring warmth, others bring tears — especially as certain anniversaries approach. But hope, curiosity, and love for what’s ahead keep pulling me forward.
🎓 College… But Make It British
In the UK, college isn’t university — it’s that in-between stage where you start shaping your future. I studied childcare, loved being around the babies, and learned pretty quickly that uni (and endless essays) wasn’t for me. And honestly? I’m okay with that. ✨
