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. 

Woop woop yesterday was my birthday! This post is dedicated to all you awesome Aquarians! 


Follow your heart, be true to yourself, never live the life of another, you have to create your own road.
Jessie J


Concrete jungle where dreams are made of... these streets will make you feel brand new, bright lights will inspire you
Jay-Z


Your past times, consisted of the strange. The twisted and deranged and I loved that little game you had called, Crying Lightning.
Arctic Monkeys


The world looks better through your eyes
Ed Sheeran


It's the thing in life i regret the most leaving you standing there
Tribes


It’s easier to hurt than to say goodbye
The Pierces


He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.
Emily Bronte



Almost suspended, we are laid asleep
In body, and become a living soul:
While with an eye made quiet by the power
Of harmony, and the deep power of joy, 
We see into the life of things.
William Wordsworth


Thank you for reading my blog! As a birthday treat this is one of my favourite songs ever! It is Jolene covered by the White Stripes and it is all kinds of awesome! Have a wonderful week.

No promise has been given to you for this night- no, I have suggested too long a respite- no promise has been given even for this hour
Taken from The Fault in Our Stars by John Green



I'm in love with you and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I am in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout out into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable and that we are all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labour has been returned to dust,and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I'm in love with you.
John Green, TFIOS


Yearning: at the core of this desire is the belief that everything can be perfect
David Levithan



None of us were angels
Imogen Heap


And if we turned back time could we learn to live life?
Lucy Rose


To have it all and still want more, 
one things for sure we're all getting older and before you know it we're pushing up the daises
The Maccabees


I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections,
Or the beauty of innuendos,
The blackbird whistling,
Or just after.
Wallace Stevens

Rolling river of truth, Can you spare me a sip, The holy fountain of youth, Has been reduced to a drip 

The Killers



Tomorrow I’ll be quicker, I’ll stare into the strobe light, flickering afloat I’ll stay, I’m quite alright hiding today.
Tomorrow i’ll be faster, i’ll catch what I’ve been chasing after and have time to play, I’m quite alright hiding today”
Alex Turner


There’s only a few things in the world that turn me into a giant squid of anger, and one of them begins, ‘My boyfriend thinks I’m too smart for him
John Green


Be bold, be bold and everywhere be bold
Herbert Spencer 


Another head aches, another heart breaks, I'm so much older than I can take
The Killers


Where's your passion? Where's your fire tonight?
Twin Atlantic


You will never know just how beautiful you are to me
Ed Sheeran


Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart
Wordsworth


Thank you very much for reading my blog! I hope you've had a good week, we had the talk about flats for September this week in halls and it has caused some tension. One group of girls came to the table having already decided that they were living together which left the three of us remaining feeling rather excluded. 

They don't feel that they have acted tactlessly and personally I find that frustrating but I also know that within my own personality I have the bad habit of sulking and nursing perceived slights to my ego rather than letting go and forgiving. So things are a bit strained here but I don't want our friendship to disintegrate so I am going to have to make a concerted effort this week to forgive and move on. 

This is a gorgeous song by the beautiful and exquisitely talented Niki and the Dove, enjoy!
