Misfit Diaries.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and started the year with bang!

I'll now be blogging from my side blog previously known as 'showing every scar'

It's been revamped and my heart is set on having that kind of blog now.

Whether you choose to follow me or not is obviously up to you, as it's much different than this blog.

But anyway, Happy New Year. Maybe I'll see some of you over at my new(ish) blog...

Christmas.

I hope you all had a super, wonderful Christmas day :D Apologies for being absent foreverr... again.

My Christmas felt reasonably empty without my brother - in my nineteen years of being in this world, there has only been one Christmas he hasn't been with us, and that was out of his control, so I don't really count it.

Other than being (more than) slightly empty, it was alright. Not the best, I won't lie.

I would swap all the presents in the world for a hug from my big brother...

(You better believe I bought him that t-shirt...)

Emptiness aside... I'm more than grateful for this years presents. As always, I was surprised at how well these people know me.

I mean; Cupcakes, Cats & Stationary?! If that doesn't reflect me I don't know what does.

Begin, photo spam of this years presents! 

In a heartbeat my presents were: Cupcake shaped hand cream; Gold chocolate coins; Three notebooks; Hello Kitty keyring; 200 Cupcakes book; Bob Dylan CD; Kindle (!!)

Also, I got a luck necklace from my mum! (yes, I am wearing a cat print top).

The Presents ~

My niece got me a Hello Kitty keyring (!!). Did I mention she's five and chose it herself?!

She knows me too well already...

Three notebooks from my sister. I couldn't possibly ever have enough stationary.

Stationary makes me happy.

(From my parents)

Possibly the best thing ever. It's hand cream. It smells like cherries... but most of all, it's shaped

like a cupcake (!!).

Also from my parents. A Bob Dylan cd & a book of 200 cupcakes.

You have no idea how good that book is...

P.S - I'm in love with my Kindle. I have to write about that.

I said I was back and then disappeared for a few days.

Just when you think the storm is over... that's when lightning strikes...

Well, hello! I think I owe you lot a huge thank you, for sticking around, leaving comments, dropping by and following. Despite no new posts at all.

It might sound a little... mean, but I'm not gonna apologise for not posting for like, a week.

Because it couldn't have been helped. I won't post for the sake of posting, because that's not how I do things.

Things got on top of me, things got too much, they built up and crashed down.

I made mistakes and bad decisions. I am emotionally drained. 

I put everything aside, so I could calm down. And rest. And just... feel okay again.

I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm brilliant right now, I feel drained and not so much of a good person.

But, less emotional. And that's good enough for me.

I am back... but bare with me.

The Week In Review [28/11/11]

The Week In Review
[28/11/11] - [04/12/11]

I went to Cambridge and had a very Autumn worthy day; We entered December (!!);
The Christmas tree & decorations went up; I had major writer's block; I impatiently waited for
The Icarus Account's new EP to be released; I bought matching panda gloves and hat;
And I did a whole lot of not going to sleep before 1am...
As you can tell, I didn't do a lot this week. It was uneventful and boring.
This week though, should be a lot better!

The Week In Instagram...

Monday.

Wednesday.

(I didn't upload any on Tuesday)

Thursday.

Friday.

Saturday.

Sunday.

Focus.

I've said it before. My inability to focus on more than one thing at a time is pretty much ridiculous. 

Clearly I can't multi-task.

I haven't done much writing recently, mainly because my mind has been way too focused on other things (one thing at a time, of course) - things that should be at the bottom of my list but apparently creeped to the top.

I didn't even post yesterday... that's kind of a rarity.

I'm hoping to do some writing this weekend. But, I'm not gonna lock myself in a room and force myself to write. My 'writing' doesn't work that way... 

If I remember something, I write it. 

If I have something I really want to write about, I write it. 

If there's something in my head I wanna get out, I write it.

That's how my writing works. When it happens, it happens.

So, I'm hoping I'll write this weekend. But I'm making no promises to myself or anyone else.

Have a good weekend! 

I should have a 'week in review' post tomorrow.
