This time one week ago, I was in Paris with one of my bestest friends. I think it was Sunday night that we spent up at Montmartre admiring Le Sacre Coeur. We found a fantastic restaurant to have dinner, where two men were playing guitars and the food was great. The French waiter convinced me … Continue reading Week Six

Week One
I hoped I'd be writing this at 3 o clock in the afternoon, curled up with a cuppa and feeling triumphant. Instead, it's quarter to eight, dinner is nearly ready (thank goodness) and I'm completely and utterly cream crackered. We left the flat at 8am yesterday morning, Ikea bound. We were there when it opened … Continue reading Week One
Week Zero
I'm curled up on the sofa at my parents' and I've spent the whole day in my PJs. The Christmas tree is twinkling and the living room is super cosy. It's odd isn't it? This week between Christmas and New Year. No-one knows which day of the week it is. Our New Year's resolutions don't … Continue reading Week Zero
Another year older
I'M FEELIN' 24. And 'what does 24 feel like?' you might ask. Well, I guess I actually do feel a little older. If I really think about it, I realise that even in the last week or so I've done many things a younger me would have been too scared to do. Silly things like … Continue reading Another year older
To infinity and beyond
The highlight of this week has to have been my afternoon spent in London's Sky Garden. I highly recommend a visit. It's free of charge for starters! They advise that you book in advance to skip the queues, that's all. London looks so beautiful from up there. It doesn't take much to bring out the cheese … Continue reading To infinity and beyond
Still twenty-something, still lost, still smiling
Old habits die hard. Life still feels as complicated as ever. You can tell life has been a little crazy, because long gone are the days of blog posts written every Sunday without fail, always about lazy days at my parents', roast dinners and good books and sunshine or rain. Funnily enough, I actually did … Continue reading Still twenty-something, still lost, still smiling
It’s complicated
We, people in general, tend to overcomplicate things. Life's fairly simple when you think about it. We're born. Some things go wrong and some things go right. Some of us are lucky and some of us are incredibly unlucky. Some people like us and some people don't. We make friends and we lose them. Then … Continue reading It’s complicated
Everyday’s an adventure
My first few weeks at the new job were great. Unsurprisingly, life just got better when I wasn't stuck in the flat all day everyday. As you'll know if you read the last post, I adjusted super fast to the new pace of life. Once I was on a roll I just kept rolling. I … Continue reading Everyday’s an adventure
Learning to be all kinds of happy
I'm sat on the sofa by the window, getting blinded by the sun, but refusing to shut it out. I'm two chapters from the end of Harry Potter so when I'm done writing, I'm finishing it. Then I'm rewarding myself with a cream egg or two before taking a deep breath and picking up the … Continue reading Learning to be all kinds of happy
Mayhem
Our living room is SUPER cosy now. Not only do we have the house plant and the cactus and two sofas but we now have lots of cushions, one that's particularly fluffy, and a rug and a coffee table. Right now I'm sat with a spotify playlist called 'The Stress Buster' playing, I have scented … Continue reading Mayhem
