7th April 2013: 'give me a star to reach for'

soooo, I have had a nice week off, and plan to enjoy next week too... I don't really know how to form these blogs really? I don't know whether you want like a blog about what I did each this week, about the photos I took, do you want me to put all the photos from this week on this blog or eurgh I dunno, so this is an experimental entry, so if you only like certain bits, send me a comment on what you enjoy from it on my facebook page, which I'll link at the end :)

So...

Monday was a good day...

Spent most of it at my grandparents house and then came home and didn't do much else.

( By the way, this photo is a close up of my grandparents wallpaper, just cos I hadn't done many like this on my photo a day thing...)

Tuesday, the weather was really nice, at last. Didn't really do much, slept in until like 12, and then I sorted all my work notes out kinda properly, and then that was the day nearly over, I watched Step Up 3 with my sister too to finish it off :)

(This photo was the sunny evening behind some rooftops in my road)

Wednesday, I had to get up early to be in for a revision session at 9, so I went to that which last 3 hours... Then I came home, sorted those bits of revision out, had an afternoon sat listening to music and discovering yet more new people...

(This photo was my favourite from the week, I took it in the evening because I'd been sitting looking out of my bedroom window watching the evening come, and thought it made a kinda nice photo)

Thursday was a weird day, it snowed heavily but nothing really came of it, if that makes any sense? I looked after my sister in the afternoon and we looked through some old photos of when I was little... she couldn't believe how ginger I was?!

(This photo, was again taken from my bedroom window, I liked the snow/rain drop thing on my window with the garden and field in the background)

Friday, I was supposed to have gone in again for another revision session but I hadn't got to sleep properly til about 2 that morning, and wasn't feeling great so decided it was best not too. Still I felt a bit more alive and cheerier in the afternoon so went out with my Mum, Sister, Grandma and Great Aunty for lunch, which was pretty nice and then spent the evening watching doctor who with my sister :)

(This photo was taken from outside my house looking at some trees with a pretty cool cloud formation?!)

 Saturday, was a lovely day, I went to the beach with some of my family, I even walked along the beach with my Mum without a hoody, it was that warm! Had a nice meal out, and even the car journey there and back was nice cos me and my sister, plugged into my ipod and just chilled to some music and watched some Toy Story Toons, which I must say are pretty cool :P Then when we came home I went out to do babysitting :)

(This photo, I sort of wanted to experiment with a bit, it was shot at the beach, that's kinda obvious when I read over that... But yeah and I thought the sea looked so calm and it's just quite a chilled feel about it?)

Today has been pretty good, got up at a reasonable time... Watched Gabrielle Aplin and Carrie Hope Fletcher on Sunday Brunch... I then started to sort out my photos for my best of video for this... You'll find out more about that in June/July... The rest of the household went for a walk, so this gave me time to sort out some more work and revision notes, then I started to sort out my tickets, old posters and old school books, many of which I need to chuck out. Still, I then went for a walk round the back and along the river, and met da peeps at the pub/restarant and had dinner :) So a rather nice finish to my first week of the holidays... Today's photo was taken with the sun setting (again) and silhouettes :)

 Highlights Of The Week: The sunsets, as you can probably tell... also I got to see the stars quitet a bit this week because of clearer evenings and nights, which always puts a smile on my face :) and finally getting down to my favourite beach and being able to go for a walk along the front.

Quote Of The Week: 'take from today what you got.' - I've had a rather quotey week and this one came from my step-dad on the way home from the beach, and I guess it's an attitude people should take more often, if you've had a good day, take from it a smile, if you've had a rubbish day, put the 'rubbish' in the bin and forget about it :)

Song Of The Week: This is a tough one as I've been listening to literally hundreds of songs over the past week, but after his song Thrift Shop... I quite like Wings by Macklemore... It's a simple song and it's where the name of blog came from...I'll put a link at the end :)

Twitter For The Week: I got followed by Pop Tarts!! My life was made when that happened, I also got a follow from Lauern Aquilina and Ash Morgan (the first person to audition on The Voice this series...) and a few tweets from Frank Hamilton and Natty Holmes.

So there we go, let me know what you liked and what you didn't like as much on my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/onedayatatimeevan
