shibuya crossing on film | nikon f75 | kodak gold | raw
i did it, i graduated, i went to see my best friend half way across the world, i left glasgow, my boyfriend broke up with me, we’re still in a strange talking phase though
i’m struggling to get a job after my degree so i’m working as a receptionist in a hotel who haven’t cleaned their ice machine in four months
i’ve spent more time looking forwards rather than backwards, which is strange, that’s never happened before
i read through this blog and the limited amount of wisdom i’ve bestowed upon it, i hated being 14 but it seems to be a re occurring hay day memory for me. i would like to say it’s because it was the time in my life where i truly felt i had no control over my own life and i loved it. no decisions, no ticking time bomb of my degree fading to irrelevance, no pressure to compete with those around me
the past few months have been a huge fall from grace, i felt like i failed, but now somehow there’s a level of tranquility and content with ticking off the tiny tasks
i’m looking forward to learning how to drive, my first pay check from my new job, going to my first graduate interview, joining a new gym
i’m pleased with the simplicity of life and i’m ok with where i am, i want better, that will never change, but taking life day by day is bringing me joy
maybe you’ll hear from me again or maybe you won’t
reader, despite the painful cliché, find comfort in the small, insignificant parts of your life, you’ve worked too hard to neglect yourself of simplicity
