Snow days


Heya all hows you first week of January been?
My week back at uni starts this week and I’m looking forward to having the structure back in place but dreading the stress of everything that I have been putting off for so long being due in… helppp. Dissertation feels like it’s looming over me and the sooner I get going with it the better I reckon.
I thought I would share with you some pictures of the snow we got a few weeks ago. It was really lovely to take a walk as we don’t get snow very often and having lived in Australia for a lot of my childhood it’s still quite novel to me!
 
 

Trees crack white carpet,
Bleached blurs, land to sky,
Twigs freeze in cold and motion,
Kite shakes and sails by,
 
Bitter sting of breeze,
Wellies crunch and slip,
Silence blankets hungry land,
Ice on branches grip

I also have started to get on with my new years goals and drew this picture of a rabbit. Must admit this is not from my own mind and is copied but I enjoyed doing it none the less! iIspired me to draw more often. Started reading Turtles all the way down and am really enjoying it as a book and also just getting back into reading in general. Im literally dying with my exercises and just trying to hold onto motivation to keep going with I. My legs feel like jelly today but I have already found that working out prior to a driving lesson definitely helped me to stay calmer so I MUST STICK TO IT. My body literally screams at me to stop… it doesn’t like me very much at the moment hahaha! Been looking at doing some volunteering and just hoping that it all works out timing wise. About to start making my vision board to help me to visualise all the things that are most important to me for the year ahead. I do one every year and I find it really lovely to look at every day and really see what’s important to me to stop me getting focussed on the little things. Big picture people.

Hope you all have a great week!

Autumn reflection

Happy Monday folks! Where has this last week gone? In fact, how has autumn nearly come and gone! Scarfs, candles, pumpkins, warm drinks and leaves, this time of year is so lovely. This season is always one for getting back into the swings of uni/school work and coming to terms with the fact that summer is now a distant memory, the nights draw closer and the weather gets more and more dreary with each coming day…. Yay? But after a few years of study, I feel like I have got into the balance of life/work but every year September brings around the challenge all over again. With what feels like mountains to do, sometimes the things I enjoy seem to slip. So, having just been set 5 projects all due by December, I thought now would be a good time to outline what I find are the best ways to manage those stressy times but still get what needs to be done… well… done! 1)       Lists – an old but true suggestion. Write everything down. The stress of forge...

Just keep swimming

Hello hello, Heres my first blog post. Seemed fitting to start something new on the 9 th of October…. Anyone? Well I’ve been having the burning desire to chit chat and document my thoughts, ideas, mishaps, adventures and maybe even a sprinkling of advice for good measure. So here we go. Strap in folks. This is definitely going to be a bumpy ride so bear with me…. Well happy Monday. Today consisted of my theory driving test which phew I passed! Whoop whoop for me. But as anyone who knows me knows all too well, my stress levels are something that without… well…. I wouldn’t be me. So with stress levels still high but with a sense of success seeping in, I plodded through the ever coldening (not a word but should be) English weather to catch my train. Always busy. Like its midday on a Monday. What are you all doing. Anyway as I slumped into a chewing gum covered seat I rested my arm on the arm rest. But it wasn’t an arm rest. It was a poor unsuspecting middle aged mans knee wh...

Autumn at the Arboretum

Hey all, I went to Westonbirt arboretum  again this year and loved it just as much as the first time. The crunching of the leaves, the sun through the blazing leaves and a bitter breeze on my face. It was lovely to have a day away from everything. We got wrapped up in our woollies and braved the cold day and really was not disappointing with the array of colours. A time to really relax and just be in the moment. How hippy-fied of me… We spent the day looking at so many beautiful autumn colours, drinking hot chocolate and eating doughnuts! My boyfriend ( dark_matter97 ) and I took lots of pictures while I was there and thought I would share a few;   Happy Halloween and I hope you all have had a great autumn thus far, Id love to see any autumn pictures you have taken this year! Love, Lozzy
