Welcome to the small list of things that are making me happy and inspired in the month of May

1. Study and hard work. I have a ton of uni work to do, and working hard towards finishing my final year of uni is in full swing.

2. Star Wars: The Force Awakens. I was practically brought up on Star Wars and so the recent release of the newest one has me pumped for what is to come.

3. Polka dots. I just have something for this pattern at the moment.

4. Outdoor adventures. All the hard work and studying has made me crave being outdoors and exploring.

5. Getting cosy with tea. With the winter months coming up, I'm all too ready to snuggle up and get comfy.

6. Sweater weather. Once again winter is headed my way and I can't wait to pull out all my knitted sweaters and wear them 24/7.

Rainy day adventures.

One of the positive things about having moved away from home and to another state, is that I have had to find all new places to go to for basic things. One of those things was a mechanic to have a look at my car. This also meant that I needed to find my way around and away from the mechanics and finding a place to spend my time whilst I waited for my car to be finished.

I probably picked the best/worst day to get this done as it decided to hail and rain as I was making my way to the mechanics. It was also fun as I forgot my umbrella, so I had to walk in the rainy day drizzle, with a side of hail.

I eventually got myself into the safety and warmth of a local shopping centre and curled myself up with a hot coffee and a good book, to waste away the hours that I had to wait for them to finish working on my car.

The walk, even though it was cold, it was also quite refreshing, like I might have frozen half of my body off, but it made me feel refreshed and relaxed a little.

Just the joy of a Melbourne autumn.

March rewind 2015

It honestly feels like March flew by. 

I gathered freebies at my university's O'Week, bought all of my required books, started classes, went to on campus parties and spent some quality time with my friends and new roommates.

I have already spent endless hours studying, or really procrastinating, and have managed to get through my first four weeks, of my second year, without any mishap.

I started to decorate my bedroom on campus and even started a few personal projects. somehow managing to balance everything smoothly and not feel swamped at the same time.

I put together three different costumes, for three different themed parties and managed to get lost on the drive to one of them.

I spent time at uni and away from uni hanging out with the amazing friends I have and bonded with my four new roommates for the year. I even came up with some grand ideas and plans, that I now need to act upon.

Netflix has also arrived in Australia, so that can only mean more hours of procrastination lie ahead.

I hope everyone is having a good easter break, whether you celebrate or not. I personally am back at home for a week on holidays.

Sick day

Hey guys,

So I have been sick for the past few days, which totally sucks, but I thought I would share with you guys what I do when I am sick.

I like to spend the day in bed with my laptop, a notebook and pens, and some things to read. And I make sure to get comfortable, because being sick is no fun, so why not be comfy.

I also drink a large amount of tea and wear the warmest, comfiest clothes I can find. Whilst writing this I am drinking peppermint tea because its one of my favourites. 

I hope you guys are all well and not feeling like you have been hit like a bus, like I did yesterday. And if you are sick, I hope you get better soon.
