desk

I had plans a few weeks back to make a desk but I've finally put the plans into action and made a decision on what I'm doing. I've ordered two drawer units from Ikea, (identical to the ones in the picture above), as I need the extra storage space. On top of which I'm going to place a wooden bench top about two metres wide. Simple really!

ties abroad

Lovely Amsterdam apartment, I'd be more than content here. I always find when I'm going through the stresses of exams my mind repeatedly wanders to a peaceful retreat far away.

week in inspiration

A white bench desk to do work at, bookmark pointer that places the last line you read, metal trolley as an alternative storage system for the kitchen and a beautiful tree house community.

momentary relief

I let out a sigh of relief when I opened my results from the Jan modules.
Geography - B
Biology - C
Maths (D1) - C
Truthfully I was aiming for ABB, but this is so much better than last year (CUUU) so I'm ecstatic and I can work my way up from these. They're a good solid basis. Lack of work recently has meant lazy mornings in bed with a pot of tea, relaxing in the sun, a lot more reading and dullness in college, (which is actually a nice thing).

moroccan musings

Riad in Marrakesh, a Moroccan lunch and tea served Moroccan style. Indeed I've fallen in love with Morocco.

green tea

 

Spring is arguably my favourite time of year even though I'm a lover of the variety all seasons bring. It's a refreshing time of year for me, the mornings and evenings are finally getting lighter meaning more productive days. The warmer weather means I can get out the house more, I find that has this calming presence. Term four starts tomorrow so I'm taking this final moment to relax before chaos ensues by drinking the free green tea samples I received a while back.

i am my dad

My father and I share so many traits.

Not the good ones though. 

I'm constantly ill, I moan, I inherited his and his father's depression, I'm hypocritical in what I find annoying in other people, I lack energy, I push people away, I have no patience, I have no motivation, I could go on and on... 

When I look at my dad on a bad day I see myself.

nature of energy

Finished exams and only one week(end) left of work. I'm able to relax again; cuppa and a luxurious bubble bath with a bath bomb! Also have plans to construct a desk next week, I've needed a much larger workstation for my sewing for a while now so my plan is to build a long bench out of a light wood such as plywood.

jaan pehechaan ho


I'm up for bulding my own bookcases/room dividers, making my own resin-set flower jewellery and creating pet beds out of nothing. It's all about being creative.
