For once, everything's quiet. That's rare at a university. The wifi only half-works and it's horrible. Like right now, I'm getting messages saying I'm no longer connected to the internet, but it still shows four bars and green lights. Let me give you a rough update on my life. I haven't had many personal posts lately, which is … Continue reading Coming Up For Air
Outfit of the Week: Mod Girl
I'm going to keep this one short. Remember The Londoner? This is the same dress. I know that very often, people are hesitant to buy such loud pieces like this. Not to worry, here I am to show you that a statement piece is only an opportunity for creativity! I personally prefer this combination over The … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: Mod Girl
Get to Know the Writer
I did a tag thing and answered all the questions and was about to tag people at the very end when my internet decided to go kaput and I lost everything. Save. I am now saving everything I write as soon as I write it. Save. But I'll stop saying 'save' now because I can … Continue reading Get to Know the Writer
Dear Paris
Wow. I can't believe I was in Paris this time last week, and now this has happened. My thoughts are with those affected. It's at times like these when I get homesick. But it's not the usual homesick. I don't long for my mountains or the poutine or the Ehs, I just want to hug … Continue reading Dear Paris
Short Nights, Long Nights
I can't remember the last time I slept in. Is this what my life is now that I'm a legal adult in every country of the world? I don't like it. I want to go back. I woke up this morning at six, although I thought it was seven because my clock was still on … Continue reading Short Nights, Long Nights
Twenty-One
I wasn't going to say anything at all today or ever again, but the secret's out now, I guess. Hold on, I'm getting ahead of myself. I woke up in Paris this morning, half an hour before the alarm. 4am UK time, 5am Paris time. Got ready, packed my bags, and left. I took the … Continue reading Twenty-One
One Last Grand Tour of Paris
I woke up at 6am on a Sunday morning. I think the woman I was sharing the hostel room with was pissed off at me, but from what I could tell, she had somewhere to be pretty early, too. Still, I completely understand not wanting to wake up to the sound of someone else's alarm … Continue reading One Last Grand Tour of Paris
High, from Paris
I love heights. Am I afraid of them? Sure, I guess I have that healthy dose of fear that tells me to step away from an edge. But it never stops me from getting as close to the edge as possible. In fact, I don’t think I would love heights so much if I didn’t … Continue reading High, from Paris
I Ran Away to Paris
This place has terrible internet connection. Here’s hoping I don’t have to find the nearest Starbucks to post. (Update: I just needed a password. It works fine.) Boy have I got a post for you. Get comfortable. When I first came to England, I was so excited to be in Europe where all these countries were … Continue reading I Ran Away to Paris
Outfit of the Week: The Doll
Despite the horribleness of my background, I think I've figured out how to take these pictures so they don't look all yellow. This week's outfit was my way of taking advantage of warm weather in November, something that would never have happened back home. Because I wore this so soon after Halloween, which I hadn't … Continue reading Outfit of the Week: The Doll
