Forgive me, Blogger, for I have sinned. It's been two months since my last blog, which would be more excusable if I had nothing to write about...
In reality I've attended a brother's wedding, completed my Graduation Showcase, embarked on a ground-breaking personal project, bought a bookcase, found a new recipe, worked on a Grad Film, been pole dancing, registered for graduation, and experienced a bit of a personal realisation about happiness and success, and the way I want to be and why.
My absence can be explained, but not satisfactorily in a public domain. Ha. That sounded a bit mysterious - well, there's no conspiracy; I've just been a bit dejected lately. However, after a few life-affirming moments, a wonderful film project, a wee cheeky job offer, and dampening some beautiful people's shoulders, I'm starting to feel a little more like my old self again.
I don't want to filthy this blog post with thick globs of dirt from the muddy past few weeks. So I won't. No more worry, or panicking, or frantically looking for answers.
The only way is forward, and the things which keep me accelerating to the person I want to be.
However. As I'm trying to be all about positivity and silver linings and what not, I am going to post here, forever, the highlights of this rubbishy time, in the hopes that in the future, if ever I peruse these old posts I will look here and remember this time only for the good.

And sometimes, when you're trying to get back on track, there's nothing better than some song wisdom.
"Don’t waste your time on jealousy:
Sometimes your ahead, sometimes you're not.
The race is long; and in the end it’s only with yourself."
"Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much,
Or berate yourself either.
Your choices are half chance.
So are everybody else’s."
- Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

What a lovely catch up :) I really enjoy reading these! Your spellbook looks amazing, and thats such a LOL you got school dinners when you were there! How very nostalgic indeed :) see you soon lovely lady xx
what an awesome post - inspired by that sunglasses song:D
well they are wise words so you can't go wrong if you follow them. My similar inspiring word passage is Rudyard Kipling's 'IF' - If only I could 'Keep my head when all around me are loosing theirs and blaming it on me!'
Miss you Luisa. I hope we have a project soon to work on together and relive good times :D
Wow- loving the purdy trompe l'oeil!!!
Nicew work!
xx
My flatmate and I wrote lines from the Sunscreen song on bits of paper and stuck them up on the windows of our old flat :) "The race is long..." was my favourite. Great blog!x x
