It was my birthday last week and I turned the ripe old age of 25.  I spent the day in Cambridge with my family and my new squeeze.   We went for a punt along the river, bought lots of fudge, had a ‘high tea’ lunch and I had a really lovely day.

Since then, things have been a little up and down and I feel like I’m having a bit of a real ‘life’ dilemma.  I’m really trying to evaluate what I want in life and where I am at at the moment.  I’ve learnt over the past week that I am incredibly lucky to have the most incredible and caring friends and family around me who will be there for me no matter what my choices.  I still believe that everything happens for a reason (although I’m not sure what these reasons are at the moment) but I hope everything works out well in the future.   I feel like the song Mulder & Scully by Catatonia explains my situation perfectly, as the lyrics are quite prominent.  Sorry for all the mystery, team!

Things I’m looking forward to: 
– Seeing one of my favourite artists, Josef Salvat, play London tonight in Hoxton. 
– I’m going away on holiday shortly and I really can’t wait for some valuable ‘me’ time.  I plan to spend my days exploring and pampering life’s complexities (10 points to whoever gets the Morrissey reference).
– Reading a gazillion books on holiday – give me summer read recommendations!
–  Going to Alton Towers with my work mates in September
– Catching up with lots of friends over cocktails over the coming weeks.

If anyone has any book recommendations for my holiday then do let me know.  Also – if you have any nice, inspiring quotes, please tweet me them or leave a comment – I need positive energy!

Lots of love,

Katie xxxx

P.S New songs I can’t stop listening to are –

Magnetic Eyes by Matrix & Futurebound


Ghosts by The Presets.

    I love Magnetic Eyes and it was my beginning-of-summer-song. As for motivational qoutes – one of my favourite ones is by Audrey Hepburn:

    "I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe in pink. I believe laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing; kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles."

    I'm reading Jenny Colgan's wish list and literally LOL'ing on the train on my commute to work I'm enjoying it so much. It's a girlie chick flick but without the wishy washy characters and such an easy read I'd highly recommend it!
