inspiring - “Things I Have Learned”

Stefan Sagmeister’s List of “Things I Have Learned”

* Complaining is silly. Either act or forget.
* Thinking life will be better in the future is stupid, I have to live now.
* Being not truthful works against me.
* Helping other people helps me.
* Organizing a charity group is surprisingly easy.
* Everything I do always comes back to me.
* Drugs feel great in the beginning and become a drag later on.
* Over time I get used to everything and start taking it for granted.
* Money does not make me happy.
* Traveling alone is helpful for a new perspective on life.
* Assuming is stifling.
* Keeping a diary supports my personal development.
* Trying to look good limits my life.
* Worrying solves nothing.
* Material luxuries are best enjoyed in small doeses.
* Having guts always works out for me.

What PRIMARK?!?!?

i just came across this on bleu bird vintage blog. I can’t believe this is primark....how? What? when? Its ok!
I haven’t purchased anything from primark in three years (when I was at uni....student budget....all that jazz) but I would consider with-standing the queues and crazy customers to check this out in person....is it good enough quality? And even though the prices are low.....(again) is it good enough quality? (no is probably the answer)
I am a lady with standards (without sounding pompous) clothes have to last more then two years before ripping, its got to have a level of timelessness to it.

What are you thoughts?

thoughts during brushing my teeth

I had a though last night whilst brushing my teeth. How would it be if I had a job in Birmingham? Design in Birmingham is much more up-coming then in my current city, Mr.Someone special lives there, and as living together before marriage is NOT an option we could still cook and eat dinner together, I would be living solo again and it would be an adventure!

It made me smile then, but as I think and write about it, I imagine it could become lonely. When I last lived away from home I was at uni and was surrounded by rabbit and many other friends. Only one close friend remains in Birmingham now.

Well I’m not moving anytime soon, so I shall continue to have adventures at home .... Plus I have my little niece and another one on the way (I love them) x

full of colour!

Imagine ribbons and ribbons of colour?
Or coloured paper streamers (keeping costs down)
Well in November the dream became a reality!
One of the best feelings for me if when I vision I have in my minds eye comes to life in front of me and looks good or better than expected.
(I would like to take a moment to say that when I’m given the opportunity to serve my Lord, everything has a way of working out, especially on his birthday 23rd November. Year after year he makes everything amazing)
I sometimes say that
my imagination is too big for my reality, and there are times when I start and never finish an idea cause it just looks plain silly!

But this worked. I didn’t have the opportunity to get too arty farty with photos....but I hope you like what I captured.
It was amazing to see it ‘raise’ to life

Nan Lawson - amazing illustrations

I’m a sucker for specs! Always reminds me of my fella. Just came across this Nan Lawson Etsy page and I am in love with this style of illustration.
This print remind me of me and my fella, except we both have black hair.
(click on the image if you want to check out more)
She’s even got prints of Harry Potter. I heart Harry Potter, rabbit does as well. Fanatics? I get that nervous excited feeling in my tummy everytime I see, hear or read anything about Harry Potter. Its the same feel I used to get when reading the books. (huge smile)

wild!

Do you keep old diaries/notebooks?

I did religiously, but I stepped away from the diaries/notebooks this weekend. They went into the recycling box. But before I did I had a quick flick through and took photos of any doodles. Like the one above.

It had to be done...i have way to much clutter.
2011 resolution – collecting less clutter. If I plan to get married and move out of my parents house I need to loose the rubbish as I really don’t plan to take it with me.

P.s. First thing I text to Mr.Someone Special in 2011.....we’re getting engaged this year!
