Listening… Well, not much really. This Lana Del Ray song, which i swear I do just to make myself cry.

 

Reading… A book called The Radleys (weird vampire fiction posing as normal fiction). I've just finished some ace medieval fantasy series such as The Kingkiller Chronicles and A Song of Ice And Fire (aka Game of Thrones). Spent a few minutes discussing The Slap the other day (the day of Byron and Harrow). Re-read Jane Eyre, as I do every year. I'm so grateful that I can re-read my favourite books. There are certain ones I re-read ever year, and it is such a gift to give myself. 

 

Watching… Anything that has a Kardashian in it. X Factor. ZOMG Downton Abbey. Didn't sleep for a few days while getting through the second series.

Buying… A watch. I did it before I was unemployed, and it has been sitting at customs since then. I now have a job, and it is redeemed, and will arrive tomorrow. Holla!

Wearing... Pencil skirts and improbable heels, as per 'corporate' dress code. When not Dolly Parton-ing (aka 9-5) it's something leopard print, be that purple Roberto Cavalli jeans, a vintage button up shirt, a headscarf, or a furry blanket on the couch.

Wanting… A job. A real one. Replies to my job applications. Not to have to answer 'I'm a PA' to the 'What do you do?' question. Especially when talking to anyone smart/funny/goodlooking/talented.

Trying… To shake myself up and out of this lethargy. I think I'm getting there.

Loving… The feeling that I'm falling back in love with London. I teetered away for a minute there, when for a second (or a bit longer) I thought that maybe I couldn't do it. That I wouldn't do it. That I would go home, in defeat and failure. I'm holding on for a little longer though.

Writing… Whatever.

 

Inspired by… Friendship. Here's to @tomosushi @josie_says et al for keeping me here.
