Runaways

Hello! My apologies for the 2 week hiatus. Again... Life is busy, no? School has been chaotic and stressful as ever. I have just been receiving tonnes of work and I've just had loads to do. On the upside, the days go by quicker when I keep busy! It just means that I don't get a lot of free time for the more enjoyable things in life, i.e. blogging, reading, drawing, etc. I really miss being able to do things for fun!

Also, my laptop decided to die on me last weekend, but with the help of a friend from school, I have been lent his spare hard drive for the time being while I'm waiting for a new one to arrive. So all is good again, but I did have a tiny bit of a panic (read: major freak out) when I received the dreaded blue screen of death. Cue stress attack until everything got sorted out, which luckily it did! This last week has been more of the same with school, stress, etc., but it's not too bad since I still manage to hang with friends, etc. and the freedom of Sixth Form is great. Overall, life is pretty good at the moment.

Anyway, just wanted to share a new photo - well, it's not that new, but I haven't posted it yet, so let's pretend that it's new.

This photo reminds me of the summer and spending a few days in the Wirral with my family. This was also the day after I got my GCSE results and I just remember feeling so much relief and happiness because all of the hard work had been worth it. I really miss Summer 2012, it was genuinely one of the best summers of my life.

Anyway, talking of holidays, I am in much need of a break. Luckily, half term is coming up on Friday 12th so I'll have 2 weeks off from school, which is going to be so good. I've actually got work experience planned for the first week! I'm gonna be going down to St. Albans and commuting into London for work experience at Morgan Stanley in Canary Wharf! It's gonna be such a good experience, albeit an intimidating one. I'm gonna be staying with my aunty for a week and also going into London to visit a friend who has just started uni in London. So it's gonna be a fun week and it'll be nice to go out and explore the city. I love it there and can't wait to get out of Birmingham!

Anyway, hope you're all well and enjoying the weekend. Hopefully it won't be too long until my next post! Happy blogging :-)

P.S. If you can, please check out my lovely friend, Anna's new blog, なるほど anna. I've only known Anna for about a month or so, but it feels like we've been friends for years! She's quite new to blogging, but even with just a few posts under her belt, you can just tell that she's a natural. So if you want a good read, some entertainment, pretty photos or basically anything that is cool, please head on over to her blog. :-) 

P.P.S. Obsessed with the new song from the Killers: Runaways. On repeat. Indefinitely. They are just so goooood.

  2. That photo was taken in Summer? But, you're wearing a cardigan?! It's only Spring here right now and it's already 31 degrees (celcius - 87.8F).

    Can't wait to hear more about your work experience!

  3. Oh yeah, Ella and Jade were amazing last night! I feel the same about 'District 3' too - the name really hasn't improved. I agree the Sixth Form is so much better then the GCSE years due to the amount of freedom, the study periods are so useful.
