High Sheriff Award For Suffolk

There is actually a cool bit if history behind the High Sheriff. According to the Suffolk County Council website  it is at 'least 1000' years old, the office of the High Sheriff. A high Sherieff has responsibilities of law...etc. If you want to read more on the job, then click on this link/copy and paste it.

Today, I had the chance to go and collect a grant for a charity called 4yp. Well, Suffolks health project for young people (4yp). 4yp has done a lot for me and I will always talk the best about them because, I have never had a bad experience there. The youth workers that work in the project are friendly and keep information you talk about confidential, unless the information has information regarding harm towards yourself. They do however, always tell you what they will do and ask for your opinion. At 4yp there is volunteering opportunities, which I am also a part of and a chance to be able to make friends or go and have counselling. It is aimed at young people 12 to 25 years old. As well as volunteering and counselling, there is also group activities on certain days. Why am I explaining all this? This charity means a hell of a lot to me . I won't go into detail about my personal life just yet, but I have had a bloody awful time. I had no friends and since joining 4yp a year ago, I have made friends I will be keeping for life. My confidence has greatly improved...blah blah. You get the picture. 

4yp had been told they had been given a grant by the High Sheriff of Suffolk. This is great news because it means they can now use that  money to fix problems and buy more equipment for young people. Me and my good friend (more like best friend) were told we could go up and collect this award. I jumped straight at the chance- I wanted to be able to do something for them. So there we are waiting to go up and get the award when I realise one of the presenters of the ceremony, is actually one of my mum's friends. 

(Random selfie before I went. I do have red lip stick on)

Walking up the stage and then turning to look at the crowd was great if the camera man wasn't blinding me so badly! The flash meant I had no idea how I was standing or if I was even facing the crowd. Therefore, it meant that we had to have another photo taken as me and my best friend, were not standing as close as we should have been to the High Sheriff. It was a good laugh after however. 

The rest of the ceremony was very nice. They gave awards out to other volunteers congratulating them on their hard work and it made me think.

People actually do recognise the hard work that volunteers put in. However, we never hear about volunteers in the media. We only ever hear about the people who started the business and not the people are who trying to keep a business running and will use their free time to help others. It made realise, that this world inst always like that and people do see other peoples hard work. I wasn't upset that 4yp did not get an award because they did in a way.  People were recognising 4yp for their hard work and willing to give them a ton of money to help them. 

So to me the evening was a complete success and all the other charities were awarded. I was very happy and it actually restored my faith in humanity a lot more. I hope it has restored yours as well. 

I would like to thank 4yp for inviting me to go to this event and for all the hard work they have put in for the young people in Suffolk and for their patience with me and their willingness to be their for me. It means a ton. 

Thank you. 

Sherlock Cosplay

My most recent cosplay would be Isabelle Lightwood from The Mortal Instruments but-but I would to go to a comic con as her or walk outside with marks all over my skin.
I would however, go out for a cosplay photoshoot dressed as Sherlock.

I think I scared people on the shore because a guy was walking towards me as I started taking photos and making different poses. Needless, to say he gave me a weird look and then walked in a different direction. Actually that happened twice. Joy of cosplay photoshoots! 

(I used my phone and  stick, that I decided to name selfie stick). 

 Some of the photos I love, for example this one. I don't actually know why I did this but it made a good photo I think. I decided I was going to take a photo of my back and pose like Sherlock did at the Reinbach fall. 

Needless to say, in a gale force wind and quite high log- I was trying hard to not fall over and fall into mud. 

I also took other photos of which I am really proud of. 

 (I stood on that in The Reinbach like photo)

And that was my day! Taking photos of Sherlock! 

Have a good day! 

Me, myself and Jim

Unfortunately,  I had to change the original name for my blog a bit. The original name was Me, Myself and I but someone had taken taken that so I had to think of the next best thing in my life.

Well, I do love Sherlock and cosplaying Moriarty from BBC Sherlock. 

So that is how the name was born in the end. But what do the other words mean in the title?

Me means as myself as a person. A person who loves to read, draw, write, act and do a variety of other stuff, you will learn about.   Myself, the mental health issue I have and how I am going to have to learn that is part of myself . Jim? Explained that above.

Now that is out of the way, why an earth is Molly Marie trying to blog for the third time? (Picture of me below as a fem Jim Moriarty)

I never had a purpose to blog before but I believe and think I have a purpose now. I want to write a book and but my blogs into a book or talk about the process of writing my book. Either way it works for me! I am also not very good at expressing my emotions and usually bottle everything up in me, so therefore I have decided it is a good idea to create a sort of ‘journal’ blog. (I am thinking of creating a youtube channel but have no idea what to do yet).

The sort of posts that will be posted will be about ‘mundane’ things. Such as my drawings i have completed. Posting the chapters I have done on my book or little short stories going through my head. If this get ‘popular’ I will post topics people want to me to post and answer any questions. I will also most probably be sharing knowledge on theatre and how to act, as I learn myself. So that is what you would be reading about. I don’t know if that would interest someone but I am going to try.

I would write about myself in this but I like to make people learn about people. Don’t all authors do that? Anyway, how boring it would be to go into detail about me as a person and not share little bits over the course of the blog?
