Love (among other things)

Love.

Everybody loves something (or someone).

Love is just such a desired emotion; something we all want to feel and most of the time we're loved, and we don't even know (or feel) it.

I know I said (in my introductory post) that this blog was gonna be like a British 'Sex and the City', but it's just mainly about finding love and finding your place in the city; it's about finding your soulmate(s). 

Love doesn't always have to be romantic. You can love your city, you can love your friends, you can love your life. Heck, you can love your cat (shoutout to Cinnamon <3). Maternal, fraternal, platonic, self (don't worry, I won't go on, otherwise that will include multiple Wikipedia articles) - there are many different (and beautiful) forms of love.

I have yet to fall in love, but I know that I’m loved. I hope that the people I love dearly know that I do. And loving isn’t just about kissing and hugging, it’s about spending time with others, giving them stuff that you think (or know) that they’ll like/love and respecting them and their decisions, good or bad.

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and, in case you don’t know/feel it, you are loved.

Weekends in London

Image
Happy Monday everyone! A weekend in London can fly by. Or it can drag out painfully. I've had my fair shares of short and long weekends and, generally, the worst the weekend, the longer it's gonna be. This one flied by (don't ask me what happened on Saturday because I'll be clueless without my search history and a time machine). I don't really go out much on the weekends anymore.  There are a number of reasons for this: - I'm broke - I'm not broke, but there's nothing to do - It's raining - My bed is holding me hostage - My kitten is holding me hostage Personally, I do feel like I'm missing out a bit, but, unless there's something I really want to do, I can generally be found at home during the weekend.  On the odd occasion, I go out with my stepfather up to Romford to watch a movie and then, down to Central (London). We go round Covent Garden and Trafalgar Square and just see what people are up to. Londoners, tourists, the odd day tripper or...

Just an introductory blog :)

Well, here it is. My first blog.  I'm gonna try and blog as often as I can, but for the time being, it's just Monday and Friday. First off, I want to congratulate everyone for surviving the year of January. It was difficult, but we made it through: we survived the New Year! If we can make it through this, we can make it through anything.  Next, I'm sorry if this blog wasn't posted on the Friday; I'm currently doing a survey while writing, so I can get a McDonald's wrap later (you gotta admit that they make some tasty wraps).  Finally, I'm planning on doing this blog from a combination of my phone and local library computers, so I thought I'd let you know. So, this blog is just gonna be casual and a bit like a British 'Sex and The City' because that's where I am in life (if you caught me 10 years ago, it would've been 'Friends'). This is mainly an introduction blog, so you just get to understand me and my personality.  I'm gonn...

Those Little Things in Life

Image
Late night walks around London, on a constant adventure and hunt for something new (that you’ve never seen before). I’ve seen The Shard many times and taken hundreds of photos of it, but this is something new. I don’t believe I’ve ever taken a photo of the tip of The Shard before. Ironically (and probably obviously), The Shard at night does look like a shard of glass. This statement could not be truer for when it pierces the night sky.  Liverpool Street Station on a Sunday evening has never felt so busy. I was travelling to the McDonald’s in the station and, although busy, it was quiet compared to a Saturday night. You (and I promise this) do not want to be in that McDonald’s on a Saturday night. I was in the area and Macca’s is surprisingly scarce around that area. I ordered a large Coca Cola with ice and a BBQ Chicken Bacon  One Wrap (crispy, if you must know). When I collected my wrap, it looked like there was barely any ingredients in it. I didn’t feel in the mood for an ...
