cd's i have bought recently

today i had lunch with my grandparents and my mother for my grandpa's 67th birthday. it was at a club with an all you can eat buffet type food (not my favourite type of thing because they never seem to have anything vegetarian friendly except for crummy vegies) but it was actually really nice. i had lots of fun listening to my grandparents make fun of all the oldies making the most of it and going back for their fourth plate of food and my grandpa singing happy birthday to himself and referring to himself as a donkey. so cute!
and tonight i am going to my boyfriends house as he is cooking me dinner. i can't wait to see what he has made me, i miss his lovely cooking!
and for now i am going to listen to Julia Stone and enjoy having a day off ^.^

hope your day has been lovely. xx

i am laying in bed listening to Notorious B.I.G., 'seeker, lover, keeper' and boy and bear. such a weird combination but that's the mood i am in.
today is my first sick day off work and i feel bad because i had to make a fuss to find someone to work but i really need a day of resting after the night i had of being that sick.
i need to chew my food better and i don't know if i'll be eating my favourite vegie korma again for a while.
yuck.

i'm a lucky woman

two and a half years today with such a wonderful, sexy man.

i'm sitting here sipping on organic holy basil tea and missing my dearest Lucy (who is many sea's away).
she shares my love of tea and the sounds of 'The Middle East' and it makes me miss her so.
i keep reading a postcard that she sent me and her handwriting makes me remember little things about her that make me miss her more.

right now i felt so nostalgic but content all at the same time.
i want to go back to times when i'd walk to work beneath tree's so beautiful and large in the early morning sun and breathing in air that only feels that fresh in your lungs when it's morning.
i want to be eating a toasted turkish roast vege bread wrap with Lucy, op-shopping and visiting the gallery with her.

but i also feel so in love, like i've never felt before and that i never want the feeling to end or change unless it could get better but i can't even imagine anything better than this.

ah, life.

i have this insane urge to swim in water that is clear blue and beautiful.

i've wanted to ever since i can remember and i feel like i need to buy a plane ticket and go somewhere like that really soon because i know it'll make me really happy.

i wouldn't mind that for my 21st birthday actually.

flying away on a plane and escaping everyone and everything, even for a few days to go somewhere like this, wasting my money on what would feel like freedom.

i wouldn't mind hiding here for a while.

i'm not sure what it was but today i woke up feeling motivated. maybe it's because one of my best friends emailed me from Sweden? or maybe it's because i'm turning 21 (ARGH) this coming weekend? or it could be both? but i feel like i've lost myself a little lately. i've been busy going from boring A to boring B and back again and i've been ignoring that little voice in my head that reminds me of all my hopes and dreams that i have for myself and i need to listen to it before i become unhappy.



so i'm looking at inspiring photos and listening to Xavier Rudd <3 because he always reminds of the things i need to do in order to get to where i want to be.
