musings of a twenty-something bilingual
I find myself on Valentine's Day alone on the sofa, after having watched part of PS. I Love You with my beautiful friends. Not alone but alone, yet so content with where I am right now. My coffee and cardamom candle is burning, and the lights are on low, and I'm gently watching the ending… Continue reading love :: foundation
Saturday 9th February 2019It's been a while since I've spent a Saturday in a town centre nursing my tired self with a cappuccino. If you hadn't already realised, cappuccinos are my go-to, I feel so basic but you can't go wrong with a lil' coffee and a whole lot of milky froth. Today I have… Continue reading life :: nerve
*Adapted from original post on HerCampus Lancaster and January's Newsletter* As January comes to end...Oh my, oh my, am I grateful for the people I am blessed to do life with. No matter how your month has been, don't let a dull, stressful January influence the rest of the year! Here's what's happened this month… Continue reading 2019 :: january
It has taken me the whole length of writing this blog post to decide on a title. Honestly, this week turned to pot at 11pm on Tuesday night, when my phone decided to de-activate. Thinking that was not the end of the world, I plugged the phone into my laptop, following the "connect to iTunes… Continue reading life :: battlefield
It's here, the new year. While I do prefer to look back on the year on the 31st December, I felt a short review of the year 2018 was in need. And then maybe after I will address deux mille dix-neuf (that's two thousand and nineteen in French, FYI). For those who don't know their bloggers, and… Continue reading life :: deux mille dix-huit
A constant invitation, that is what He offers us. Maybe that is quite an intense way to begin a blog post, but sometimes we need to be hit with the truth. Truth gives us confidence, and instills trust, whether that be trust in someone, or trust in something higher. Confidence is heralded by the world;… Continue reading faith :: true
It's that time of year. I have been feeling it for a while now, perhaps more than any other year, and since the 1st December has well and truly passed, it is now socially-acceptable to sing " IT'S CHRISTMAS" in the streets (debatable, but I'd be singing with you... There is something about festivities that… Continue reading life :: festive
Two weeks ago, I went on a little day trip to the Lake District with a friend. We town-hopped till we dropped, and I loved every minute of it. There is nothing like driving from Lake Windermere, through Ambleside to Keswick. The scenery is incredible. The hills are rolling, and the weather was so moody that… Continue reading travel :: lakes
While the cold breeze whistles its way through the crunchy Autumn leaves, my scarf whips up, flying in the air, only to nestle softly in a shallow puddle of murky rainwater. It is this kind of chaos I am experiencing of late - no matter my outfit choice, it is always blown away, quite literally,… Continue reading fashion :: chaotic
While holed up in Lancaster's public library, for the first time in fact, I watched a video of Steven Furtick preaching on worry. This guy, I mean, he's just the one you need to get you through a bad day. Sometimes it's as if God speaks right to me through his words, in a deep… Continue reading faith :: in reverse
