#14 Making days count

Recently I've been counting my blessings, making the days count rather than counting the days.

It's been a rough and chaotic month, A levels just create a bad cocktail with everything. However, here's a simple but truthful list of things I'm thankful for despite all this, wooo!!

1. My prayers are with those who have been affected, or know someone who has been affected, by the London attacks but I am very very thankful that I have been kept safe as a London liver and frequent traveller

2. I've finally gotten through all my A level exams so it's basically summer now (just waiting for the weather to cooperate)!

3. I've been awfully healthy if I may say so myself; cooking and experimenting with different super foods, drowning myself in bottle after bottle (of water), making a fruit salad rather than picking up the nearest packet of crisps

4. I've become a better cook! Forcing myself to eat better has finally given me hope I can survive uni life

5. Becoming physically more active too, going on regular running 'dates' with a bestfriend - 2025 London marathon, watch out

6.  Cleared the air with lots of people I've been in tension with and finally feel like I've found my place a bit more in terms of friendships

7. My piano teacher's been complimenting me in lessons and she is one high-standard teacher. Genuinely, hearing her say 'good' is as rare as me finding that bobby pin I lost

8. I've been generally more organised, motivated and on top of things! Goodbye late nights spent staying up working... and hello to binge watching youtube or love island at ungodly hours :)

You'll know I like my cheese (especially camembert) if you've been sticking around long enough so yeah, wishing you all find the bright in the bleak :)

Big love,
