A new adventure?

Here he goes again – a new hobby maybe!

 

So as we know, I flit between one thing and the next like nobodies business. And now I’m currently loving the idea of taking photos.

I discovered a huge park near my house. It was bright, sunny, so green and I fell inspired.

I like the results and I actually want to work on them, and you know what I’d really like? I’d like to make them into album cover designs. I feel like I missed that phase when I was a teenager so I’m making up for it now.

 

More Crafts!

As my last post would show, I got into cross stitching. Along with that, I have also been trying my hand at bracelet making. For a while I’ve owned plenty of string to make bracelets, and I would use this in a plaited style way. However the string came with this weird flower shaped disk that I had no idea how to use. Of course it came with instructions, but I was happy using a method I already knew, and couldn’t be bothered trying to decipher the slightly confusing instructions.

Cross Stitching

It has happened again, I’ve found a new hobby. I’m very good at flitting around hobbies and such, and I’m always wanting to try new things. Often the thing that holds me back from giving everything a go is money and commitment. I’m always a bit wary of spending money on a new thing that I don’t yet know if I like or will be good at.

I want to write, but my brain is empty

I’m sure we’ve all had those days. The days of quiet, peaceful nothingness. There’s nothing to do and it’s the perfect opportunity to write. Or rather it would be if there was even the smallest creative idea swirling in the brain!

This is me today. There’s nothing happening, there’s no one to talk to, the house is quiet, I want to write but there’s no ideas. I can physically feel my fingers itching to type but no stories are manifesting themselves. The beginning sentences form and then fizzle away like a bath bomb. Except there’s no excitement and prettiness left behind, simply dank bathwater.

My brain is void. Blackness fills it. Normally words and thoughts and imagination would sparkle in the darkness, but they’ve all gone out. Sometimes the sparkle is too bright and it turns into a burning mess of lights and I wish for the darkness to extinguish the light, but not today. Today I don’t want quiet. I want to create, I want to let words flow from my brain to my fingertips. I want a spark in my brain.

Not Feeling Proud During Pride Month

Despite being the leader of my uni’s LGBTQ+ society and being in a gay relationship, I often don’t feel pride how I see others doing so. I don’t want to shout it from the rooftops, I don’t want to wave my flag for everyone to see. I just want to do me and live my life. So when it comes to pride month and so many people seem to be brandishing rainbows and talking more openly about their sexuality and gender, I feel a bit left out.Read More »
