How good is a rainy Sunday when you’re super tired and CBF with life? SO GOOD. I’ve had a pretty relaxing day filled with friends, good food, a quick run in the rain and a lot of napping. This weekend has actually been pretty productive and I finally got organised enough to shoot some new looks for the blog since I’m not going to have much time for the next two weeks. I know everyone says this but I can’t believe how quickly the year is going!? Thank god for having longer days again though – you can already tell that the sun sets a little later everyday and I can’t wait for spring!
Highs:
-
If you love sugar as much as I do (I have a problem) Caramelised White Chocolate Toffee Pops are just too good to pass up. Warning: you are going to feel pretty sick after and will probably need a nap but I promise it’s worth it.

Music: Call Me Over – Always Never, Aqua Blue Honda – TYLERxCORDY,

I went to Sigma during the week which was actually so much fun, even worth being ridiculously hung over at work. Is it me or are hangovers like 10x worse these days? It’s nice to go to events to break up the week though because it makes it go by much quicker. I have a couple of events coming up this week too so I’m stoked to have a better work vs. life balance going on. It’s about bloody time.

Okay so after going back and watching the first season of Marcella on Netflix I got addicted to watching Luther. It’s another crime drama and I think that’s all I like anymore. Anyway, go treat yourself and give it a watch!
-
Also, on a more light-hearted note I watched ‘I Feel Pretty’ last night with one of my friends and it was just a classic Saturday night in chick flick – really easy to watch and quite funny.

I’ve had &Sushi from Ubereats twice this week because their Teriyaki Salmon Donburi is that good. You get veges and well as heaps of ginger and Japanese mayo which wins me over every time.

Today for brunch JJ and I went to try Honey Bones in Grey Lynn. We got the Ricotta Pancake was really good. We also shared the Halloumi Brekkie Bowl and got extra salmon which totally wasn’t worth it (see photo – that little bit of salmon was $6!?) but the actual bowl was alright. Anyway, I think I’m going to start sharing more about the cafes I’ve been enjoying on here and my Instagram stories since I go to different ones so often.

Soft Thorns by Bridgett Devoue is such a great poetry book. I have actually had it for a while. This week though I finally got around to flicking through it. It’s best for when you’re in one of those “lost in your own thoughts” moods. It’s just good to get you thinking about something else. Anyway, would definitely recommend.

Lows:

I feel like for being a 24-year-old with a reasonable amount of life experience and understanding I keep making some big f*ck ups which are totally not a reflection of how I actually feel. Sometimes I think it’s just me being a little self-destructive just for shits and gigs. I think this photo describes what I’m talking about pretty well.
-
Feeling uneasy so much of the time. This quarter life crisis can f*ck right off.

I know I’m missing things off this post and because I never write them down I forget.
