ABOUT TIME

Summer is my favourite time of year (apart from Christmastime of course) and it has now officially come to an end, too fast as usual.

I always feel like September brings a lot of new beginnings and fresh starts for people, like New Year but without the pressure of everything having to change after the clock strikes 12.

Last week I saw a film called About Time. It was such a great film, just honest and about love and family and living for the moment. Its strange how a film about time travel seemed to be more about living in the moment you are already in. It really made me think about how much we always look to the future in life and plan ahead without taking the time to enjoy each moment as it happens.

I love planning ahead and having things to look forward to but when I think about it I'm also always reminiscing about the past and things that have already happened. So maybe it's about time I appreciated things more at the time they are happening aswell.


If you do get a chance to watch this film then I highly recommend it.

EXCUSE MY FRENCH BUT I'M IN FRANCE


A few photos from our first time visiting Paris... wandering around for two days is the perfect way to explore a new city.

DISNEYLAND!!!



As a 21st birthday present I got two tickets to go to Disneyland Paris, somewhere as a (HUGE) disney fan I have wanted to go to for a long time. And it definitely didn't disappoint. I loved seeing all the excited kids and little girls dressed up as princesses and enjoyed forgetting how old I was for a few days.

THE SUN'LL COME OUT

Summer has been surprisingly warm in England this year. Although we've had rain too, the sun has come out to play a lot which I've been very happy about. This afternoon Rob and I decided to make the most of it and spend a few hours in the garden doing absolutely nothing in the sunshine. Life can be very busy so it's always really nice when you find some time to do nothing...and to make the most of the British sunshine as summer should be!

BANK HOLIDAY WEEKEND

This weekend my best friend came down to London. We had lots of fun enjoying the sunshine, eating good food, drinking, exploring and taking lots of photos. I have lived in London for two years now and love being here; finding new things to do and places to go, especially when the sunshine's out! It's also great when friends come to visit and you have even more reason to get out and see the city. Here are a few snaps from our weekend..

I think it's hard in life not to compare yourself or the things you do to other people and what they do. Very hard infact. I started this blog a while ago now but kept deleting posts and changing it trying to make it 'perfect' but I figured it really isn't ever going to be perfect because let's face it... I'm not perfect, and the reason I wanted to start blogging was to put a little bit of me out there into the world.

So here's to sharing something of yourself and to not comparing it to something else. ( hey that kind of rhymes)
