Thoughts on a Thursday...

(image:vi.sualize.us)


Hi friends,


So today is a thoughtful day.. I have been thinking a lot about life and future and so many things! I start my masters degree next month and I just got my welcome pack, saying details for fees and reading lists and enrollment. Whilst very exciting this is also nerve wracking- I'm going to be a student again!!


Other thoughts...


I am reading all books by David Nicholls. My dad had 'One Day' which you must must must read. A true masterpiece. And I can't wait to see the film with Anne Hathaway! I'm now reading Starter for Ten- a book about university challenge and a student longing to fit in. Its quite funny. Not romantic like One Day but still great writing. I am lucky that my wonderful Dad is also a book worm like me so I get to borrow his books!

I also read the Help by Kathryn Stockett last month and the film is out soon... oh books and films. I am so excited to see them both.


Lastly I just want to say Happy Birthday to my very special Dad who I know reads my blog!! 


How is your thursday??

Have a very Happy Thursday!! xxx

Excitement.

Dear friends.


It made me so happy yesterday to read your happiness lists on the post below. Keep them coming in. Its so important to count blessings, that in itself is a mood booster I've found. 


Well today, its sunny, im sitting in my new green floaty dress (love) and i'm so incredibly excited for graduate school in october. I know its ages away but I havnt been a student for a year as have been earning money for my  next degree! And its nearly august so the time is approaching fast,


Saying that I don't want to wish away my summer.


But today I am so so so excited! 


Have a good Thursday xo

Sleepless and Beautiful.

'There are hours without sleep which is not to say that they're sleepless, because on the contrary, they're not about lack of anything, they're rich and full. Desires, memories, fears, passions form labyrinths in which we lose and find and then lose ourselves again. They are hours when anything is possible, good or bad'- Bernhard Schlink.


This quote is from the most beautiful book I read about a year ago, 'The Reader' by Bernhard Schlink. He is a wonderful writer. I also find it quite relevant to my life because there are times when its hard to get to sleep because my mind is whirring, or worrying or dreaming... How about you?
