today I: lived the dream.
I'm so high on life and happy right now! I feel like i'm bursting at the seams with smiles :)
Yesterday I got some of my dissertation done then went for ice-cream with lauren then went up to Aly's to re-pot a plant. Ended up eating pizza and drinking some kind of pina colada cocktail. Then today I went to Broughty Ferry with Aly! I was so excited, ever since I moved to Dundee I've been wanting to jump on a bus and go somewhere new but the only place I've really been is St Andrews and I probably went there when I was a kid so it doesn't count. So we got the bus to B.Ferry, went and had a delicious pub lunch and a cheeky wee pint of Guinness then went wandering about the town. It was nice and quiet cuz it's a Sunday and there was hardly anything open but it was fun looking in the shop windows. We wanted to find somewhere to have a scone as we decided that Guinnes + Scones = Happy. It does. Fact. We found the cutest independent coffee shop called Toast and they had 2 scones left! They weren't nasty stale scones like you usually get in cafes but they were so lighty and fresh! And they gave me my tea in the cutest teapot! It's exactly like my wee pink one but was blue. This made me happy. Afterwards we'd finished our scones we went to the waterfront, where I realised that we really weren't that far away from Dundee! This made me a little bit sad but it still felt like a proper day trip so I'm happy. After looking at the swans and stuff for a while we got back on the bus and came back to Dundee where we went back to Aly's and she made us steak and parsnips & carrots then I came home! Did a bit of cleaning, put a washing on and now i'm uploading pictures of my adventurous day :)
I'm knackered! It feels amazing to take a day off the dissertation, it maybe wasn't the best idea because I need every spare few hours I can get just now but my head feels so much better and I actually feel a lot happier about sitting down and writing more of it. I needed a day away to clear away the fluff in my head. Things with Paul are great too, he had a good adventurous day out doing airsofting and he's maybe coming up next weekend. My student loan comes in tomorrow so I'm going to get a nice big shop with lots of fresh fruit and veg and get back into my fitness regime as of tomorrow. I did 3 sessions last week and though I planned to do 5, they say that 3 is enough. Next week I'll aim for 4.
Weeeeeeeee :)
