A Little Update!

Hello!
Wow, it's certainly been a while!
A lot has been happening in my world, a lot indeed. I turned eighteen, I've been on holiday, and been attempting to get myself together a little.
Soon I shall be relocating, to my own domain and a few changes will be made. It's a very exciting time for me and I have a lot I want to share on there, and writing will return to more content filled posts and I hope you'll like it!
I'll update with more information over next week!
Lots of love..

Things I Love Friday;

+ The sunshine & thunderstorms here in England.
My two favourite types of weather! Hehe!

+ My family.
We've been spending more time together recently and really beginning to get along better.

+ Making summer plans.
More on these later!

+ All the inspiring blogs I've come across recently.
I adore coming across like minded bloggers out there with ideas to change the world.

+ The second hand book shop near my house.
I could easily buy up to a hundred books in here.. and the prices are astonishingly cheap!

+ My dog.
Yes, as a rottweiler/labrador, he's pretty large and drools a lot.. but he is possibly my favourite thing in the world.

+ Making plans to enter more charity races.
So exciting and amazing to be a part of these things.

+ Feeling positive about the future.
Yey for finally gaining some clarity on these pressing matters.

That's all I have time for right now!
What's making you delirious with happiness this week?

Lots of love..

Michael Jackson

This morning, I woke up to the sad news that Michael Jackson has passed away, this really has saddened and shocked me.
Of course, my thoughts are with his family and those close to him at this time.
I think that 'you are not alone' would be my favourite song by him, as that song really got me through a lot of difficulties in the past, but it's very hard to choose just one.
I don't believe there will ever be another Michael Jackson, in this lifetime or the next. He was a genius, an excellent entertainer, fantastic dancer and of course had a fabolous voice.
At just fifty years of age, I think it's made a lot of people question their own mortality, but the facts remain that we are not infinite, we just have to make the most of all the time that we are blessed with.
Huge condolences to all those close to him at this time.. it's a very sad day for all.
Love..

Things I Love Friday .

+ My best friend;

We always have the best times together and I really do apreciate her, she's simply amazing.

+ The weather;
Yes, I know, very british. It's been gorgeous here recently, I love the sunshine.

+ Spending the day in the park;
Me and the best friend had a lovely picnic, sunbathed, attempted to row on the boats and explored the woods. A fabulous day.

+ My dog;
He is adorable and I love him dearly.

+ Putting summer plans into action;
It's going to be a very exciting summer, more on that later!

+ Shopping;

Though not exactly a stereotypical girly girl, shopping for make up and pretty things makes me happy.

+ iCiNG, or Gala Darling;
Her post on unusual dates really inspired me and started my day off wonderfully.

+ Preparing for the Race For Life on Sunday;
It's a race for a cancer charity which is very close to my heart, it's going to be a good day too.

Catch Up !

Oh my goodness.
First, I must apologise for the long absence. Another year of college is now officially over and I am so happy I now have the time to commit to writing again.
The majority of my time recently has been taken up with exams, interviews, having a clear out and other exciting activities, although I have of course made time for visits to the beach and to enjoy the sunshine a little (it's a rarity here in England!).

Tomorrow, I'm starting a thirty day challenge, it's a concept which I was first introduced to a year or so ago, on Steve Pavlina's blog. I think it's a good idea to try something for 30 days, it's not a huge commitment but long enough to make a change, of course, you are free to continue it if you wish to do so.

Anyway, my thirty day challenge, is to give up junk food. It's not healthy, it doesn't even make me feel good in the long run, and I think it's a positive step towards the healthier me I'm working towards.

I'll update with progress on how it goes, wish me luck !

What would you change about yourself for thirty days? :)

Lots of love..

Things I Love Thursday

Happy Friday !
It's been an incredibly busy week, with exams coming up and deadlines looming.
Yesterday I had a wonderful day with an old friend, we explored a town we'd never been to and even saw some famous people (hehe!).
So I haven't had a chance to upload my Things i Love Thursday (a la gala darling!) so I will do it now, a TiLF, if you will.

+ Longg bus journeys with the aformentioned old friend, drinking energy drinks and singing along with the iPOD, giggling none stop.

+ Learning fascinating things in my Psychology class.

+ Making inspiring and exciting plans for the summer (more on those later!).

+ Taking walks along the canal, just me and my thoughts.

+ Spending hours in the library completing projects and revising, and feeling accomplished afterwards.

+ Being inspired by all the lovely young bloggers out there.

What about you? What are you grateful for this week?

Lots of love..

Quote Of The Week

Never make your home in a place. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You'll find what you need to furnish it - memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things. That way it will go with you wherever you journey. ~Tad Williams

Lots of love..
