Life, Lately

Yesterday wonderful person and I went adventuring in Bristol, which was great! We spent a lot of time in Stokes Croft (where we both spent far too much, but also found some incredible shops!!) and had lovely pizza in Planet Pizza (definitely going back!). We also did some looking for graffiti and getting a little bit lost but also having lots of fun. Then we walked all the way to Clifton (achy legs now) and got food and had a picnic by the Suspension Bridge and took cute pictures (because, let's face it, we are adorable). Then, Boston Tea Party, for Monopoly Deal (I won!!) and tying strawberry laces (I won!!) and fitting lots of grapes in our mouths (K won...). And finally trying to find shelter by the Harbour, and just being us. What a beautiful day. Such a beautiful day! <3 Definitely the best day yet of 2016, but also one of the best days ever just in general.

There was also a bit of a weird moment, with a guy in Boston Tea Party. It played with my mind a bit, and made the night-time more difficult. I'm going to write about it later. But not now.

This week's been a weird one. It's felt a bit bleak at times. But, as if to compensate, there have been some really really wonderful times too; like yesterday, and like stomping around in a frozen puddle with daffodils in my hand, and like the Sociology class being given a break because I was knitting and laughing over a word and it made my teacher laugh; like Thrive (everyday, always), and friendship, and PASH, and seeing people I have missed. Feeling like I belong. Feeling happy. So many beautiful moments.

I'm excited for the future. I'm looking forwards to onwards and upwards, to things getting better, to feeling more and more like I am where I'm meant to be. It's such a good feeling.

Also this week I found out that there is a band playing at Thekla soon that I have heard of but not really listened to. The reason this is important is because the lead singer is also an actress, and also just an incredibly important person to me. Partly because I am very much in love with her, but more than that. Because she is one of the reasons that I am still here. It was from one of her roles that I learnt that it was okay to be different, and to be me. If I had not had that lesson so early on, I would not be who I am today. I'm not even sure I would be. Also, that I watched a film just because it had her in it, and that film was the first time I felt not alone about something big, and that was so huge in my life. So, I owe this person a lot a lot, and she is second on my list of people I would like to meet in my life (with JKR first). Hence, I am going to get tickets to this gig at Thekla. Because I feel like I need to. So that is happening, hopefully.

K and I worked out that we have at least one 'big' exciting thing every month up until September. That is very cool. What is cooler is to think about how many small exciting things there will be too. There is so much in life to look forwards to, and so many reasons to be happy. It is all good.

I am going to go now, because I  need to get ready for work and maybe do a bit of tidying too. I hope you all have wonderful days. I hope you are all as happy as possible, and know how loved you are.

Rock on, wonder-person
