Life and Love

“We’re all a little weird. And life is weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness – and call it Love – true Love .” - Robert Fulghum

 

I’m really enjoying life, I consider myself more optimistic and happy since I’ve been back at university but this time studying clinical psychology.

My plans for 2013 are big but I’m determined to achieve them. As corny as this sounds but I’m really trying to improve myself, the world around me and how I treat others. The happier I get the more I get the urge to help others and even if they are rude towards me for no reason I don’t get angry anymore I just respond calmly and walk away.

By meeting by mutual friends I’ve met a lovely boy, his from St Louis MO (His studying in London until he graduates in July) and we have been dating since April. His Catholic and his been a really positive influence these last few months. I’ve even started reading the Bible. He didn’t force his beliefs on me in any way , just by spending time with him I found myself seeing things in a new light.

Bogart's Baby

Humphrey Bogart’s Letter to Lauren Bacall after they finished filming on her first film To Have an Have Not  1944 ,, “I wish with all my heart that things were different – someday soon they will be. And now I know what was meant by ‘to say goodbye is to die a little’ – because when I walked away from you that last time and saw you standing there so darling I did die a little in my heart.”

-Taken from Lauren Bacall’s Biography ‘By Myself and then some’ . Page 117  

“It meant a lot to me because I’d never been to the circus as a kid” MM

Summer time is every summer babes time to shine

Random Piece of useless info for u ...

So excited!! In September I will be going to Egypt for  6 weeks with my brother and some friends. I can’t wait to see the  pyramids and as everyone knows I’m a big geek ....I absolutely love history . History and geography were my favourite subjects at school (plus art).

Now,,,  I’m off to bed ... (in the U.K its just turned seven o clock in the afternoon ha-ha but I’m so tired )

Feel so ill it’s unreal !!

 Nite xxx

With a lick of paint ...

Term has just finished and I now have like a month off !!! Today I decorated my bedroom, gone is the baby pink walls I’ve had since I was child and replaced with a gorgeous blood red. I bought myself a old 4 poster bed (such a bargain, the frame will last forever i think it i look after it and worth the dent it has put in my pocket) and some thick black curtains to help block out the street lamp thingy lol  which is literally right outside my window.

For wall art I put up a Marilyn Monroe picture (the one when she is in a ballet dress) and recently my friend Jason gave me an Edie Sedgwick picture which is on a canvas , so I put that up too on the opposite wall. Nothing like a clean out and a revamp which can make you feel so much better about going home or bringing people round. Have so much more planned !!! Can’t wait to start on the garden ....

Things you should never forget *

"As we grow we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken more than once, and its harder every time. You will break hearts too so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You will fight with your best friend. You will blame a new love for things an old one did. You will cry because time is passing too fast. You will eventually lose someone u love. So take too many pictures... Laugh too much and love like you’ve never been hurt. Because every sixty seconds u spend upset is a minute of happiness u will never get back "

*Unsure on where this quote came from, i kept note of it in an old diary but like a dip i didnt say who said it.

Life and Death

# Dilemma*

I’m happy, but sad

I want to die, but I don’t.

I love you, but I hate you.

I’m tired, but I’m not.

I’m fine, but not really.

I can’t talk to you,

But I can’t not talk to you ..

In the mood for Summer and its clear blue sky's

I don’t know what to do , tell me what I should do
