27/11/20

I have been despicable with my blogging. So from now on we’re back on track!

It’s been a v busy few days in fairness with me trying to get through the waterfalls of work that are inevitable with this time of year. I had the absolute worse day today though. I don’t know about you, but during corona when a tiny thing goes wrong I might as well have been shot because that’s how bad it feels.  I also had a massive pang for pre corona times today, as all my snapchat memories keep popping up with christmas dinner type things from last year and it's PAINFUL. Equally, work seems so much more disgusting when we don't have socials to break it up.

Now why was today awful. Well, I went to the library and the wifi wasn’t working. So I did the mature thing and had a little subtle weep through my mask.

 I then thought, how can this day be picked up. So I went to Café Nero, and got my all time favourite drink, a chai latte with soya milk. Alas- the barista was clearly out to get me as the chai latte was cold. There’s 3.30 I’ll never see again. Also, as hard as I tried, I couldn’t work. It was just too hard- and my brain wasn’t functioning. It’s particularly stressful at the moment as essay deadlines and exams are looming (currently doing one atm) Then I thought, what could cheer me up. I know, I’ll go and have a lil sing with Lucy. So off I trekked to the music department.  But of course, as expected, the recording system wasn’t working- so we couldn’t record our duet. I then missed my gym session. Finally, cold and hungry, I began the journey home, stopping off at Sainsbury’s to pick up some essentials. (Waffles and custard creams.) I then ate way too much food that I didn’t really want and felt crap about it afterwards- particularly as I had a really good few food days for the last week-with lots of good training.

Today was not a good day, clearly. However, I had a shower. That’s a win. I did some of my steps. Also a win. I watched a lot of gossip girl- basically deserving of a Nobel prize there. I then got an essay result back, and discovered I got 63%. Not bad considering I dislike my degree. I also discovered my gorgeous friend Leah is returning to uni next semester. Overjoyed.

Life sucks a lot of the time atm. So don’t let yourself get down from one bad day. Wake up tomorrow and start afresh. (goodness gracious I really need to take my own advice) Tomorrow I plan to sleep in (I really need sleep at the moment, seriously sleep deprived) get up, do some yoga and read some of my motivational book. Then I plan to read a bit of my bible, have a healthy breakfast and write a Bach fugue for my exam (if you don’t know what this is, google it) go to the gym, and then have a Christmas dinner with my flatmates in the evening, with mulled wine and a Christmas movie.

We got this
