A Fresh Start

7th January 2019Harriet PattisonLifestyle, Uncategorized

So here we are. Another year has been and gone.Although reflections and resolutions can be made at any time – why not the 1st July for example? – there is something about January. The excess and gluttony of December can leave us feeling full and content, in many ways, and so the opportunity to start...

Connecting The Dots

7th January 2016SempleLifestyle

During our first meeting of 2016 I proposed to the team that this would be a year of consolidation. I promised not to come up with too many new ideas and I think I saw a few eyes flicker in disbelief. The Semple team had some great achievements in 2015. One example, our magazine Semple...

4 useful, every-day apps

7th January 2016Hannah AlleyLifestyle

When it comes to staying organised, my phone is the first thing I turn to. As we all know, apps have become so much more advanced over the last few years and app-developers are constantly developing app ideas that will help our every day lives. I can be a bit of a tech-geek when I want...

Just Do You

5th January 2016Sophie MaguireLifestyle

I don’t usually make New Year’s resolutions, they’re not my thing. I find the idea of convincing myself I can achieve certain goals just because it’s January a ridiculous notion. Every year people talk of the things they will achieve in the coming year – they make tried lists of worn resolutions. Some vow to...

8th January 2015SempleLifestyle

So christmas is over and the new year has begun. It’s hard to know whether it’ll bring you copious amounts of joy but that’s what we are all hoping for. But sometimes it is hard to be positive when you aren’t necessarily feeling so great about yourself. Speaking from personal experience, I can say that...

Your New Year Style Resolutions

7th January 2015SempleFashion

A new year always starts with the best of intentions, such as, “I will get the gym fit body I always dreamed of” or “this year I will be more spontaneous”. But often our good intents start to go adrift around the end of February. So this year at Semple we are making some style...

Be The Change

2nd January 2015Talia MaguireLifestyle

So here it is, welcome to 2015. By now you’ve probably been bombarded with people saying ‘new year, new me’, claiming their diet starts tomorrow and ramming their New Years resolutions down your throat even though you didn’t ask. I only wish that for once, people would step outside of themselves and start working towards...

The history of New Years Eve

27th December 2013SempleEvents

“No one ever regarded the First of January with indifference. It is that from which all date their time, and count upon what is left. It is the nativity of our common Adam.” Charles Lamb Old Year’s Day, New Years Eve, Saint Sylvester’s Day: call it what you will but regardless of language or location,...

New Year, new you?

9th December 2013SempleLifestyle

The New Year is a wonderful time. Fresh hope and new beginnings linger like the smell of freshly baked bread. We are positively drunk with the promise of new possibilities, buoyant against the tide of all that awaits us in the year ahead. But, we are hardly going to change overnight and that’s why that...
