Swallows and Amazons: Sunday Smiles ♥

Sunday can be a grim cocktail of a hangover from Saturday evening and the impending gloom of Monday morning, however it doesn't have to be this way! While I am unable to offer a better hangover cure than Berocca and a bacon sandwich, I do hope to bring a small smile to your Sunday, making the thought of Monday morning seem a little more bearable.

Life is uncertain, eat dessert first

Ernestine Ulmer

To read is to fly: it is to soar to a point of vantage which gives a view over wide terrains of history, human variety, ideas, shared experience and the fruits of many inquiries.

A.C. Grayling

As knowledge increases, wonder deepens

Charles Morgan

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.
William James

Heaven is a place on earth with you, tell me all the things you want to do
Lana Del Ray

Thank you very much for reading my blog, I hope it managed to bring a smile to your Sunday!
A couple of posts ago I mentioned a guy I met in a nightclub I thought I'd update the story today. We went on a date which was lovely we talked for 4 hours straight about everything from music taste and tattoos to our bucket lists. We were going to organise a second date but in the meantime he got the job he'd been waiting months for, it involves long days and working most days of the week so we agreed that it wouldn't be practical trying to make a relationship work, especially since I am just about to start my first placement at university. I am a little disappointed but I'd rather we called it a day than try to drag out something that we both knew wasn't going to work. At the moment I am enjoying my single status; and there are plenty more Arctic Monkeys fans in Glasgow!
I hope things are going well with you and that you have a great week! This is Florence and the Machine's new song shake it out. I love it and I've had it on loop for days, hope you enjoy it too.
