After the mad rush of deadlines it actually feels so surreal to just be sitting in my garden at home, having a BBQ, blogging, and not feeling guilty for doing so! If you know me, then you will know this already. I admit I am a bit of a busy body! I like to keep myself occupied on my day to day, buzzing from one place to the other. Im pretty sure that when I'm at University I rarely have a spare hour to myself, always popping from lectures to dance, to see friends and fitting in blog posts and eating out in between, not to mention SHOPPING, always always shopping :).
So being home for the past 2 days has just been bliss! After my hectic week of Dance Class, Last Ocean, Trent Dance Awards, FINLLY my Deadline date and enjoying the last day of term with 'Trentival', before making my way to Manchester on Saturday morning and heading straight to Parklife Festival (soon to be blogged about) for the weekend, Then back to Nottingham to pack up my room and move home (not to mention going back again the day after because it needed 3 trips!). Having had a day and a half at home to just DO NOTHING! Has been utter bliss, and I'm sure you'll agree. Probably made you feel a bit tired just reading all of that. Oh and did I mention thats what my life is like ALL THE TIME!

Obviously me being the little Dora I am couldn't quite sit still for the whole day! Of course I sorted out all my clothes to chuck, sell online and take to a boot fair, AND blog about it :) However, in comparison to the norm thats NOTHING! At mid-day today I was itching to making some plans and just head out, but I pursued my itch and stayed in chilling and uploading my never needing pile to Depop while occasionally chatting to my Dad as he did the Gardening.
I didn't realise just quite now much of a busy bee I was until I sat still for 5 minutes and instantly wanted to be doing something! I'll admit I did make a plan for next week, BUT THATS A WEEK AWAY! I have left the rest of this one entirely free to just relax and go with the flow (not that I'll get anyone asking me to do anything, so really it will be a half week of blogging, clothes selling and watching my 3 favourite programmes!). Tell you what though, its a good job Made In Chelsea is on and THE RETURN OF NEW GIRL, and second season of Orange Is The New Black. It means that I am set to just relax in front of the TV if all else fails. Which is unlikely considering I wrote an A4 page list of everything I could think of that I need to do over Summer, so I'll always have something, even if it is only little, to do!
Someone once told me that I dont have an off button, well I think now I've finally found that I can. Its just like one of those really stiff buttons that take a good while to push down :)
