Hello! Welcome to my blog!
That is a sentence I never thought I'd say, but here we are. Who are you? My name is Sophy, I'm 21, and I'm a dance teacher. I'm from Fife in Scotland, and I just moved into a little flat with my partner, Renee. I've danced my whole life, and left school a year early to attend an Edinburgh dance college. I trained for 3 years, and taught at my local dance school at the same time. After I graduated in 2018, I moved to Melbourne to complete a further year of training and teaching. While I was over there, I fell in love with the most amazing Aussie/Scot who was born in Scotland and always wanted to move back (coincidence?!) So at the start of 2020 (pre-covid situation) we flew back home together and started our life over here. I'm teaching at a few dance schools, and finishing some qualifications, and I love my job! Renee is about to start her new job in the care industry with a disability charity (She is very lovely). In my free time, I love finding cute little buys for our flat, or making some crafty stuff that I can show off to guests. I love reading, audiobooks, and those adult colouring in books, but I also love exploring new places, woodland trails, and picnics. I have an obsession with mugs, and anything with sausage dogs or bees on (no idea why those two creatures stood out to me, but we won't question it...) As with a lot of people, I've found myself unemployed during the Covid outbreak, and have become very unmotivated. I would really like to fit into my jeans again, so I am trying to eat better and work out more, but it's not really working for me at the moment. This is where Okay Sophy comes in. What are you writing about? My plan is to document what I've done health & fitness wise week to week. So I'll type up my weekly exercise routine (hopefully this will include running, home workouts, and online dance classes) and we'll cross our fingers that this will motivate me to actually stick to it. I'll also be posting my meal plans and any cool (gluten free) recipes I find or create. As I came up with this idea, I decided I actually have a lot to write about! So as well as health and fitness, there will probably be: Discussions about my Dunelm bargains; Book reviews; Crafty things; Anything I've learned about LGBT history; And anything that relates to sausage dogs. Why Okay Sophy? Well, last night I turned to Renee as she was peacefully watching Netflix, and said 'I'm going to start a blog.' She responded as she usually does when I make these random statements - 'Okay Sophy' and continued to watch the Crown. (Honestly, it's understandable. I do this a lot, and The Crown is a good show.) I then spent at least an hour brainstorming a name for said blog (just incase it became popular, you never know.) After a wee lightbulb moment, I decided 'Okay Sophy' is easy and simple (and might be catchy if I did accidentally become famous.) So here we are, blog post number 1! Thanks for joining me on my little endeavour, let's see where this goes! Love Sophy x
