SUNDAY SUMMARY 2.7

Sunday 25 October 2020

Did I ever tell you I read an article once which included a segment about how if someone (this piece pertained to guys) has their bed in the middle of their room it means they have their life together and are ready to date? Both parties then have their own 'side' of the bed and you both get your own table too I guess. I brought this memory to the forefront of my mind while talking to my flatmates last night about beds. 

I got up momentarily just now to lean against my door frame and reimagine my room. My bed is currently pushed into the corner under the window which I think is quite cosy. However, I'm wondering now if I should move my bed into the middle of my room. What does my room layout say about me

I don't have a side of the bed in London, I sleep in the middle. It's totally luxurious and I make a little nest using all the pillows. The few (few) times I've had someone over I've end up sleeping against the wall, which I don't like, and I then have to shimmy around them if I need to pee. Anyway, to conclude, don't have people over, ever, and also I'm not ready to sacrifice sleeping in the middle just yet so the bed stays where it is. Glad we could have that chat. 

It's been a super super super busy week and I haven't had time to take many pictures. Another seven days down, the clocks have gone back, our pumpkin went rotten and this time next week we'll be in November. 




1. Here's me, bright and early on Monday morning pulling a horrendous face that no one needs to see, but our dining table looks nice at least. And so does the eucalyptus I bought last weekend. The pumpkin is reering it's head but it was in it's final few days, I was too keen and bought one too soon. Now we are without a pumpkin this week for when it actually is Halloween. 
2. A new girl has moved in with Jules and I and she's great. She's so great she brought with her these two lovely egg cups. I boiled these eggs so hard that the yoke didn't even run. Unforutnaely when I was washing up just now I went to put the egg cups away and dropped one chicken, nearly decapitating it. (The egg cups are chickens) 
3. Sums up my day, fairly productive and well intenioned but not quite there. 

Other bits: 
1. I'm watching a new K-Drama on Netflix called She Was Pretty. It's great. 
2. What do we think about the corset trend? I so nearly bought a corset at the weekend but didn't because I wasn't sure I could pull it off. I don't have any boobs either. 
3. I had a massage in the middle of a shopping centre at the weekend. It was £1 a minute and I had one for 10 minutes and it changed my life.

Tabs of the week: 
Urban Outfitters Corset top. Spot Eraser from Glossier. Zoning out and trauma. ASOS satin bustier top (there's a theme here). This other random corset on ASOS marketplace that I actually quite like. A sequin bustier top from Zara. An image of me and my older brother from 14 years ago. A Barbara Bui cropped tartan overshirt for $1,860 that I stumbled across. A MyProtein gym top. Best star sign for a Pisces female (don't even ask). Sagittarius men (no). A returns barcode for something. Santuario Madonna della Corona (a church).  

Quote of the week: “You either walk inside your story and own it or you stand outside your story and hustle for your worthiness.” - from none other than BrenĂ© Brown. 

Okay goodbye, goodnight, stay safe!
