there are some thing in life you cannot fix.

Time is a continuum you can't stop, can't turn back, can't control.
Everything we do within time defines who we are. And the only thing we can change is the person we've become.
Everything is like a cycle. Every minute goes into every hour which goes into every day, every week, month, and finally, every year. Within that year you try to do something different, not make the same mistakes but really it's just the same, with you ending the year looking back thinking I wish I'd done this or done that. But even a cycle has an end; nothing goes on forever.
I'm the type of person to hold onto everything so tight that I don't feel it break in my hands and slip through my fingers. Then I try to fix it.
But here's how I see it:
Leaves grow, flowers bloom. They blossom throughout summer, a short three month span in the 12 month year. Then they die, they fall, and the trees and ground remain bare for the winter, all to start all over again. But it's never the same as the year before.
You can't make things the same; no two things in life ever can be.
So be in this world for yourself because you are the only thing you will always have, can always trust, can always depend on. You will never leave yourself: you're born together, and you die together. Don't ever lose sight of who you are and what you want in life. One day, it will be all you have.

On a lighter note:

I bought some new books off Amazon:

















and I can't wait for them to arrive :)

I've also kitted myself out for summer with some noice new sandaaals and dresses from River Island :D

I can't wait for summer and I can just let everything goooo.

Anyway, I bought some lovelyyyy organic nighttime sleep aiding teaa :) so I'm off to make some and potter off to bed :)

nanaaaight xo.

Start of the summer term.

So easter's over..
and it basically consisted of revision/avoiding revision/trying to concentrate on revision/ignoring the revision.
BUT
The sun came outttt at last (which was a further distraction from the revision) and you can begin to smell fresh grasss and you need one less layer and can stop wearing Uggs and you start to shape up for summer because..
SPRING is here :)
okay, sure Croydon doesn't look as serene and beautiful as this but it's still wonderful nonetheless :)
It's nice to wake up in the morning to some sunshine as a pose to the dreary winter clouds and it's such inspirational weather for me to paint :) It was so wonderful last weekend that instead of doing revision I got started on this painting of the gardens down at my dad's old place (I still go there to relax because they are truly beautiful).

I found this mug and I love it :)

Irrelevant, I am aware.

Now.
On a more serious note, I would like to dedicate this post to a truly inspirational woman who I'm sorry to say, has tragically passed away.
My spanish teacher was a wonderful, amazing person who made me love spanish from my very first lesson and got not just me, but my whole year, through the awful ordeal of GCSE's. She then got us through our immense breakdowns over Year 12. She always believed in me, even when I couldn't believe in myself. Believed in us all. She was always there to listen to me, was always a shoulder to cry on, helped me through really hard times at home and was always a smiling face when I felt I had noone else to turn to.

I have my Spanish oral next Thursday.. the real deal. I hope I make you proud.
You will forever be missed by us all.
