thunder in the distance.

a clean slate.

nothing new...

so

following on from my last post...

last night was definitely not the night.

it wasn't a total bust.

my friends do rock.

they just would've rocked more if they'd actually made it out haha

so

i went back to my hermit-esque tendencies and took some photos

oh

and

i found the best 2nd hand bookstore. i'm in loooove

peas and happiness x

hermit-like tendencies...

i've been rather hermit-esque of late.

well...

if you don't include the night at the pub with the work gals

where I got tapped on the shoulder by Security.

or 

the night with many 'blanks'

where I woke up at 1pm the next day

luckily sleeping through (and) avoiding a hangover of any description.

but honestly i have been a hermit.

taking photos

spending long hours attached to my Mac, either photoshopping photos I've taken, or checking out peoples blogs.

sending random people postcards. 

and reading my way through my increasingly growing, second hand (pre loved) book collection.

(my favourite one so far this year being "The Book Thief".... seriously read it. wow)

so I've decided...

i need a night out. i'm not sure if tonight's the night. we'll see.

i feel like drinking and dancing and getting home as the sun is coming up.

oh and meeting a nice boy (a nice good looking boy)....  hey just putting it out there...

on another note.

its my friend Shan's birthday today

we had a long breaky to celebrate, with cupcakes for dessert. yummm

Happy 24th Shanny

i have to go to Canada and travel.

i HAVE to.

it's almost like I don't have a choice

my body aches to go there.

i'm going.

but when?

and how?

i'll figure out the details later.

but I AM going.

confessions (#1)...

 my name isn't really Kate.

it's Katherine. shhh.

and...

ignore the crap outta you.

Oscar Wilde once said...

i'm currently feeling the need to question everything at the moment.

i don't know whether it's because I'm reaching a crossroads in my life or what?

i'm almost 25. it's not like thats old. but there comes a time when you do have to grow up. 

make the responsible choice.

be less care free.

become grounded.

i don't know if I'm ready for that.

at all.

if I could take off today i would.

but i can't. - you need savings for that
(if only i were more responsible!!!)

is it wrong to want to live a little. 

or

was it wrong of me to wait so long to take the plunge into being free.

HELP.

at a party i once thought...

they will you know.

peas and happiness x

nostalgia...

.........

New York

i miss you. and i love you.

a certain canadian. who became an instant friend.

italian gelato. you were so delicious.

having someone look at me in this way.

(but no with him. or with orange face paint either!)

and the feeling of freedom that traveling for months on end gives you!

i think i miss this the most.

(closely followed by the gelato. it was just really really delicious. really!)

march?...

can it seriously be march?

what?

it can?

it is.

March!

shit.

i'm not organised.

i'm not very neat.

i procrastinate.

i like to do things my way.

it's not always easy.

but it's how i get things done.

the year is slipping slowly away and there's so much stuff I have planned for 2010.

travel.

photography courses.

find a new career path.

be more creative.

fall in love.

live.

i need to get into gear. especially since my way is clearly not the easy way.

CLEARLY.

it's gone...

so as it turned out the last day of summer was a bit of a fizzer.

it rained.

but still, it was a good day.

i got to hang with my sister. we did absolutely nothing together all day.

she's pretty raaadd.

so this weekend I learnt...

some things (people) are definitely better left in the past.

i've lost all respect for my boss. (she's a looney)

my friends are ah-mazing.

i love rain. (it brings these)

i miss summer already.

but I'm looking forward to Autumn. (the light is glorious. it's when I take my best photos.)

peas and happiness x

secretly i wish...

secretly I wish I had someone to do this with...
