It’s been one of those weeks again. I’m not
quite sure how I’d explain what ‘one of those weeks’ are, but it includes
listening to music, feeling ill due to anxiety and ‘stress’ and feeling like
you haven’t got nearly enough done, because your bed is a lot more comforting
than the outside world.
I’ve got coursework deadlines looming (as
always pft) and although I’m feeling a lot more confident than I was before
Easter, I just want to get it handed in and over with now. My other blog has had
some crazy big artists on it, and there are some more on their way, but with A
Levels, my inbox and blog drafts have been left to wilt, much like the
daffodils in recent weeks.
On a better and more positive note, I’ve
had a restricted technology weekend and I’ve loved it. When things get too
much, I often spend a day or two in bed, but this weekend I was determined to
not let it get to me. So instead I turned off my internet (apart from posting a
photo last night), barely went on my phone and chilled. Yesterday, I admit I
did get a fair amount of work done in the morning, but I ventured down to the
coast, slept for a couple of hours and then enjoyed some fish and chips with a
couple of glasses of white wine, whilst chatting with music backing the conversations.
This morning, I woke up without a headache (the first time in at least a week),
got some coursework done and then finished reading ‘After Aushwitz’ by Eva
Schloss. Again, just chilling with music and then cooking up some chicken
fajitas, which seems to be my signature dish!
Now, I’m back home and with an early start
and long day ahead of me tomorrow, I’m uploading this and then spending my
evening sorting out interview questions for MIT Blog to be emailed ASAP.
I also fell in love with a song this week.
This doesn’t happen often, I like a lot of songs and certain live or acoustic
performances of songs, but there aren’t many songs that I will listen to at
least a couple of times every single day. Songs that make that list are ‘Sweet
Disposition’ by The Temper Trap, ‘Little Lion Man’ by Mumford & Sons, ‘End
Credits’ by Chase & Status, ‘The Funeral’ either the original by Band of
Horses or Nina Nesbitt’s cover and then M83 and Dodie Clark’s music in general.
This is ‘Keep’ by The White Raven, Bon Iver meets Amber Run meets Biffy/Kings. Link below:
