There’s A Rhythm In Rush These Days…

There’s a rhythm in rush these days

Where the lights don’t move and the colors don’t fade

Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams

In a world gone shallow 

In a world gone lean

Everything has been moving so fast lately that I feel a little up in the air. Dissertations, Projects, CV writing, and lot’s of other boring adult-y stuff has left me feeling exhausted. When people said my final year of undergraduate life would be crazy, i thought they were over exaggerating, but final year life is like riding a very fast roller-coaster that you’re terrified to get off. Other than wanting to sleep every chance I get, everything has been unusually pleasant considering there’s a lot more pressure on me in terms of graduating with a good grade and landing a good Architectural Assistant Position (preferably in London), and i think it’s because this year I made a conscious decision not to be such a worrywart! I’m a firm believer in everything will fall into place with hard work, courage and a lot of hope.

Although i’m not a Vegetarian, I’ve been making a conscious effort to eat a little bit more ethically and slowly lessening my intake of animal products. I’ve tried time and time again to go veggie cold turkey but it hasn’t quite worked out successfully yet, so instead i try to eat fully vegetarian twice or three times a week. I’ve found that if you stick to vegetables that you really enjoy, you don’t really miss the meat aspect as much. I adore Red Peppers, particularly when roasted because they become sweeter and softer to eat, pair it with some grilled courgette and i’m in vegetable heaven!

A lot of other stuff has been on my mind lately but I’ll have another blog post on that later on in the week, so watch out for that. It’ll be a very rambly one i’m afraid, but if you enjoy my written posts as opposed to my clothing/beauty posts then it should be an interesting read. As always i hope you’re all having a wonderful week and the lull of Monday isn’t getting you too down. Oh, I hit just over 600 blog followers overnight which is so lovely! As always, thank you for all your love and support, I really do appreciate it 🙂

P.S. Congratulations to Seyi (@morethanonelove) for winning my giveaway.

    Your photography is sublime. One of my favourite things about your blog. I've been blundering grown up stuff for four years and I must say It's not much fun. Good luck with school stuff and hopefully you get that job when you're done. Your blog really has grown.xx

    I don't believe in worrying, I mean it's good to care about things but things always fall into place…what will be will be! You seem like such a hard worker that I'm sure everything will be just fine for you. Love your bedding by the way! xxx

    I can totally relate with this, currently coming towards the end of my final year as an undergrad too – it really is so much more stressful than you can anticipate, hey?! Best of luck with all the work and keeping calm throughout it :)Kim x | Life Lately
