Inspiration For The Week

Even though I stopped blogging for a while, I never stopped reading blogs. It's part of my daily routine and I'm not really sure what I used to do without them. I've got a stockpile from when I stopped posting so there might be some out of date ones in here too.
I came home yesterday for a couple of weeks for Easter break. I'm not a massive fan of being home as there's nothing to do in my town but I'm close to London and have been reunited with my beautiful blue bike so I shouldn't complain too much.

Inspiration For The Week

This week saw a few milestones. I took the last exam of my university career and handed in all my essays for semester one so I had a good few nights of celebrating on my hands. This also means though that I'm now onto my last semester as a student and my last semester in Leeds. It's a really bittersweet time because I'm really going to miss living in the city surrounded by amazing people but I'm looking forward to getting back to living in London and pursuing my career as a graduate. The future can just be kind of scary sometimes.

Inspiration For The Week

The first week of January has flown past. I've been working hard at essays and revision as well as starting my new running routine. I went for a jog five out of seven days this week and it's really rewarding to see progress with every run. I'm quite hooked really so I don't think this'll be a hard resolution to keep. I've also been spending my time planning a lot of DIYs to do once I've got some free time again so I'll be sure to share them on the blog.

Inspiration For The Week

This week has been a flurry of early commutes and late nights which led me to being a bit of a zombie. I powered through though and now I'm successfully on the other side with a nice four day break awaiting me. If you can't tell from my choices this week, I've been loving the exposed collar look and have worn it in various reincarnations to the office. I'm spending my festive period at home with my mum and my good friend, Zizek, which really means I can't even take a break from writing essays. Oh well, at least I'll be surrounded by delicious food while I slave away.
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Inspiration For The Week

This week was another crazy one and somehow, suddenly term is over and it's time to head home for Christmas. I celebrated with a few too many drinks on Thursday night, a Christmas dinner on Friday and a weekend of recovering. I'm going home for only two and a half weeks but I'm going to squeeze in as much London goodness as I can alongside working my office job too. Yay for payday!

Inspiration For The Week

While I was having my little blogging break, life got quite crazy. I celebrated my best friend's 22nd birthday with two parties, had the first rehearsals for my film, spent a good five hours walking around Leeds reminiscing with a friend and started work on the mountains of uni stuff I have to get done. This weekend has been spent locked away in my room, struggling through all the reading for my first essay of the semester. I have three to complete in five weeks with an exam to revise for too. Christmas break is not going to be an easy one.

Inspiration For The Week

We're about to enter the third and final week of Leeds International Film Festival. This spells a slowing down for me with not much longer of rushing around to watch films but also a nearing to the end of term. I've got Mel's birthday in a few weeks, our first rehearsals for the film and plenty more days of scratching my head at all the philosophy I've been studying but there's no denying it, term is nearly over again!
As this is my final year of university, the end of first semester is a little terrifying and it's been playing on my mind a lot recently. The thought of not being in Leeds anymore gives me such an anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach and I can't bear to ponder on it too long. So instead I'll continue to ignore the future and live very much in the present.

Inspiration For The Week

This week saw the arrival of the Leeds International Film Festival aka my favourite time of year in Leeds. It's basically a few weeks of having an excuse to go to the cinema every day and getting to see films that aren't normally given enough space in the busy schedules of mainstream cinema. I'm quite lucky with the programming at the independent cinema that I volunteer at but there's nothing quite the same as having access to so many great films from all over the world. I will be doing a review post of my top five films once the festival is over but until then, I'll be keeping my twitter updated with my thoughts.

My favourites from the past couple of weeks.

Inspiration For The Week

This week was mainly dominated by the demise of my laptop which lead to two trips to Sheffield but I also managed to squeeze in a night out, watching Drive and a new documentary called 'Just Do It' at the cinema, reading some heavy philosophy in the form of Heidegger for university and also working hard on the redraft of my screenplay. It's been a bit of a busy one which has resulted in me being awfully poorly this weekend. My sinuses are throbbing with pain right now and I've self-prescribed bed rest so hopefully I can get back to being productive tomorrow.
