This is a different sort of post for me. I've found that if you sit back and properly reflect on your day to pick out all of the 'interesting' (I say that VERY loosely of course) parts of your day, you get so much more from it! I thought I had a pretty naff day and although it was mostly uneventful, having a little summary has made me realise that you know what? Things aren't so bad. HAPPY MONDAY!
- In the Lovatt-Jones household this morning, shit went down. I introduce the Teatowelgate scandal. I needed a tea towel to wrap around my very hot porridge bowl so that I could carry it upstairs with me, and apparently that tea towel was already in use. I was accused of tea-towel theft and it all kicked off. Over a tea-towel. Drama, drama, drama.
- Today was my first day as a second year (I have been through college twice, so does that mean that this is my second first day?) Going back to college was infinitely weird, it was great seeing friends that I haven't caught up with all summer and meeting the newbie first years who all seem pretty lovely. I really enjoyed getting back to a bit of ballet, I think that was definitely the best class of the day!
- I was a bit nervous about re-dying my hair. I've slowly been going blonde over the past few months and after a cheeky colouring session last night, I am now very blonde. I was a little worried that it might not suit me, but people were really lovely about my new lighter hair. Nothing makes you feel better than a quick compliment from someone who doesn't need to say anything, and it made me especially happy because I was so worried. Thank you, you lovely people!
- However, college broke me today. Recently I have felt very very lost. One minute, I think that I've figured out what I'm doing with my life and then I realise that I actually don't have a clue and I'm back to square one. I have been finding myself pretty fragile when it comes to talking about the future and that's exactly what happened in college. The 'unbreakable' persona that I had at the end of last year, where no one could make me crack, seems to have gone. Definitely not planning on crying in front of my peers again anytime soon.
- This minor blip was followed by a chat at lunchtime with one of my really good friends and made me realise that I have the most amazing supportive people around me. You don't always realise but having good friends makes you one of the luckiest people in the world.
- My lunch today was also totes healthy! I'm totally in the habit of putting myself a lunch together in a morning so that I can keep track of exactly what I'm eating throughout the day. Today my lunch consisted of a lettuce, cucumber, red pepper, sweetcorn and tuna salad, followed by some honeydew melon, an apple and a banana. Certainly a positive of today.
- Tonight was definitely a onesie night! I came home tired, cold and wanting some comfort, and climbed into my owl onesie that my boyfriend bought me from Christmas last year. I had a good cuddle with my dog and caught up on Downton. Ooh it's getting good already. I LOVE Downton Abbey!
- On top of it definitely being a onesie night, it was also the perfect night for a lovely hot camomile bubble bath. When I'm in the mood for one, there's nothing better than just having a soak with my Spotify Musical Theatre playlist. The only negative was the appearance of a random fat ass daddy longlegs, however once I gave him a name (Arnold- for anyone who is interested) he settled down on the wall above the bath instead of frantically attacking the light. Think I made a friend.
- Let me get one thing clear. I hate burbon biscuits! But at the moment I have cravings for nothing other than...BURBON BISCUITS! I don't understand, I had two before bed because I desperately fancied some. And no, I'm not pregnant. I just have cravings for a biscuit that I don't actually like. Obviously living life in the fast lane there...
