Making me happy this week.

Every so often, I look at this blog and feel bad for how unloved it is, and how I should probably use it more. But to be quite honest, I'm not a writer or a blogger, and it's not really my forte. Plus, the only sporadic reader I have is my sister, (hey Lu!) - so I guess this space is just gonna be used as a place to make little time capsules of the little things that I am grateful for on the day I write anything on here. Maybe it will start up again as the months go, as an exciting adventure is in the works, but who knows?

So for the happy list?

1. Tomato and Avocado on toast - with a dash of cornish sea salt and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. The best! So tasty, so quick to make and now I don't want to eat any other foods.

2. Getting out of my comfort zone and it paying off. I spent last weekend out on the depths of dartmoor with my university's climbing club, hiking, camping and of course climbing, made some lovely new friends, and tried slacklining. It was such a beautiful place, too.

3. Receiving post! Still never gets old.

4. Settling back into uni, going to workshops and realizing once again how cool it is to be studying something that I love so much.

5. Rainstorms and early mornings. Waking up early has become a habit, and as autumn has arrived, the dark stormy mornings have made me feel extra cozy knowing that I have another hour or two in bed.

6. Going on a late night adventure to attempt to see the Supermoon with one of my housemates! And finding out that it wasn't a supermoon in this area of the world.

7. Giggly skypes with my favourite. It's now been 2 months since we last saw each other so we're halfway through. It's so nice to hear all his stories and get to see each other now that we have consistent internet.

8. Showing my 'September' video on the Tv in the house with all my housemates watching, it was a cool way to show them it. Thanks J for the idea!

9. New music - the feel good kind that you want to listen to over and over

10. Planning travels. And hoping everything comes together.

11. The fact that I'm meeting my family in Bristol this weekend. Yay for reunions!

2. being back in Plymouth - it feels like coming back to my second home.

3. The fact that my friends are visiting today! Haven't had friends from me here before, so I'm so excited to show them round, go to the sea and catch up and have a good time.

4. The fact that I live opposite a park now. It's like having a huge garden and it's so pretty.

5. The prospect of a very life changing adventure happening next year. Can't quite believe the turn of events the last few weeks but it's one of those opportunities that makes me really grateful.

6. Skyping/facebook calls with my favourite. Living on separate continents isn't too swell but speaking everyday makes it a lot easier. Also the fact that we are 1/4 of the way through until we see each other again. Bring on December.

7. Making tasty healthy yummy food. This week's new recipe was Quinoa wraps and was so good!

8. Sending letters. There's nothing like snail mail.

9. Our holiday last week, so many good memories, little adventures and family time.

10. Catching up with friends I haven't seen since last term. And getting hysterical after five minutes of being back together.
