"ONE THING I AM NEVER GOING TO DO WHEN I GROW UP
Is fall in love, drop out of college, learn to subsist on water and air, have a species named after me, and ruin my life." - Nicole Krauss: The History of Love

Christmas Market.
Last weekend, my housemate and I wandered down to Birmingham for the day to have a browse at the Christmas Market. It was a lovely day, despite the cold and incessant rain. My family drove up and met us there, and we spent a good few hours browsing the many goodies, especially the candles and incense which we brought a good amount of, and eating far too much unhealthy food (see the picture below of my favourite treat of the day - belgian chocolate covered marshmallows). Topped off with a gingerbread hot chocolate from Millie's Cookies, it felt like a festive day and was certainly worth the trip!
introspective, adj. having the quality of looking within; examining into one's own thoughts, feelings, or mental condition, or expressing such examination. (OED)
A little bit of everything and a whole lot of nothing.
Snack food in vast quantities. A large cup of tea, 2 sweeteners. Loud music, long books and late nights. Black and white movies, rain storms, big sunglasses, painted nails and a never ending 'to read' list.
