*I’m going to do a more detailed post on our time away later this week.
This week I thought I’d share Dan Henig’s cover of Lil Jon’s Get Low, simply because it’s awesome.
What can I say? I know I’ve been really slack with the regular updating of the blog thing. I don’t really have a ‘good‘ reason for not posting; it’s just that the past couple of weeks I’ve been in a hide from all the things kind of mood, the type of mood where I’d much rather curl into a ball and watch terrible movies in bed. In my slackness though, I have still been doing project 365 (I am determined to finish it this year!), so this week I have two weeks worth of photo for you*.

*I’m really sorry about how image heavy this post is, I promise I’ll try to do these posts more regularly!
I know I’m mega late posting this, but to be fair, my boyfriend and I have been battling the weirdest virus we’ve ever had* and I’ve just been too stuffed to post anything for the past few days.
Anyway, this week I’ve decided to share my favourite song at the moment – Frank Ocean’s Lost
*Apparently it’s been going around, you’ll know it when you get it – it starts off with a bunch of headaches/migraines…

I’ve got two weeks worth of awesomeness for you guys, seeing as I completely forgot about posting last week’s gratitude list*
Week 1: Drinks that live up to their names (I tried an ‘amazing‘ iced coffee, I was not disappointed), peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies, the banana splits at Joe’s Garage, spending time with family, fresh smoked pipi for breakfast, my boyfriend (he bought me ear plugs so I would be able to sleep through the ‘sevens weekend‘; and early morning swims at the beach.
Week 2: My birthday dinner at Picke (I had a real low-key one this year, and had dinner with my boyfriend, my dad and his partner), incredibly thoughtful-yet-ridiculous birthday presents, Alan Davies’ show: Life is pain (it was fucking hilarious), pancake day, catching up with friends I haven’t seen in ages, lunch with my bestie, finding a chip shop that does gluten-free fish & chips, dinner on the waterfront; and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
*Time flies when you’re having fun, I’m sure there a lot of things I’ve missed out/forgotten.
