Letters To November // 04

Dear November,

I am so very tired already. Starting back at college again was rather painful to say the least and being by yourself with no work during free time isn't the greatest either. As well as not even remembering work that was set and having to write an essay the night before. Along with doing so many other things that I forgot to do that are needed for tomorrow, I know I'll feel better once I do them.

Letters To November // 03

Dear November,

It's always good to get a good rest. But then to have a very slow start to the day isn't always good. I gained happiness today from watching livestreams of events but the rest of the day was rather timid and uninteresting. Hurriedly completing tasks for college almost last minute isn't always great, but what else was I supposed to do?

Back at college tomorrow and I'm not really looking forward to it to be entirely honest. Lets see how it goes.

Letters To November // 02

Dear November,

Today was a day filled with prospects and excitement. Viewing places that I could potentially be studying at for the next three years. As well as my day being filled with tiredness from an early wake-up call to travel to Leeds and then traipsing around the city centre in the rain to get back home.

A few times today I was on the verge of crying. And a few times today I was just kind of tired with life as well as unexpected different things happened. I hope tomorrow will be better.

Letters To November // 01

I was thinking of trying to do NaNoWriMo this year, but I'm so busy with college work so that would be pretty impossible. Instead I have taken inspiration from emilieofnewgloom's video project that she did in July, where she basically wrote a letter to each day about how she's feeling. You can watch them here and I thought this would be good to do in November instead of NaNo because I'm still writing something and it's not as intimidating as 50,000 words.

Dear November,

You have started whilst I was having a break from the constant regime of going to college and coming home again, but soon I will have to start that regime again for another good six weeks.
October was a funny month, there were exciting prospects of university open days and actually applying to university and a party celebrating my friend's 'coming of age'.
I remember being sad for the most part of October though, due to my lack of money and the frustrations of college work. I was mainly just waiting for the month to be ending. But I'm excited for what November will hopefully bring.

Porto, Portugal 2013

This summer from the 12-19th of July we went to Porto in Portugal. It was just a simple city break along with going to a few beaches. 

I did have a nice time, but I missed being in a place though where every local knows a good amount English and the weather was a little bit disappointing. It was cloudy all of the time, when it was in fact pretty sunny leaving some of us to become very burnt. 

Other than that, I enjoyed seeing everything and walking along listening to my audiobook.

Instagram | September 2013

I saw a few bloggers doing these and I thought it would be a nice idea to do! Every month I will collate my instagram photos and reflect on/tell you about the past month. Hope you enjoy!

NY // 07 - Staten Island

From the ghetto~ area, we took the Staten Island Ferry and saw the Statues of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge and the glorious New York skyline in general.

Thought it would be an idea to create a visual wishlist of clothes that I want from this year's Autumn/Winter collections and share them. All the items shown are from New Look and I think may I do this with other shops too! Or maybe even do book wishlists too!
