Over the pandemic, I found a new TV show, that’s become my favourite. It’s Micheal Portillos Great British Railway Journeys. Although I do like his Contintental series aswell. And the others are good too. When I couldn’t go anywhere, he took me round the world. To Europe, Australia, America, Asia, in so many series. I… Continue reading Railway Journeys
Checked Blouses
I have a thing for checked blouses. I love them, and can’t get enough of them. They’re comfortable. They come in wonderful colours, and their vivid vibrancy makes me smile. I find them really tactile, with easy to find buttons, and are super soft. And they cheer me up, when I’m feeling low. For years,… Continue reading Checked Blouses
Zip up Hoodie
I love a good zip up hoodie. I have loads, in different colours, and wear them every day. They comfort me, and relax me, makes me feel safe and secure in mind and body. I’ve worn them for years, and they work more than anything else. When I’m wearing one, I can face the world.… Continue reading Zip up Hoodie
Struggles with Breakfast
I’m not very good with breakfast. I try. I really do. But most of the time, I’m not hungry. The sleeping tablets really help with insomnia, but they mess with my stomach in the morning. But I know if I don’t eat something, I will get a headache. So I end up forcing myself to… Continue reading Struggles with Breakfast
Four Play Clarinet
I found a new band yesterday, that made me remember why I love the clarinet. They’re called Four Play Clarinet, and they’re incredible. They do loads of popular songs, on the clarinet, and each one is wonderful. There’s such joy when they play, having fun. And you can hear the bass clarinet, it’s rich and… Continue reading Four Play Clarinet
Loving Saxophones and Clarinets
Of course I love the clarinet. I love its rich woody sound, that oozes like caramel, that expresses a thousand stories and songs in each note. It’s an old friend, that I treasure dearly, comforting and familiar. It’s my true love. But there are other kinds of love. And I have fallen head over heels… Continue reading Loving Saxophones and Clarinets
Crystal Palace Park
Over Christmas, me and my boyfriend went to Crystal Palace Park, and I really enjoyed it. We went to see the dinosaur statues, as fans of dinosaurs. We walked hand in hand, even if we started out going the wrong way, and it was a lovely day. We walked round the lake, and it was… Continue reading Crystal Palace Park
Why I love music
I love music, and I always will. With music, nothing else matters. It is meditation, in its purest form. The melodies seep into my mind, washing away worries and doubts. It relaxes me, quietens busy thoughts and buzzing anxieties, like smoke. It consumes me from head to toe, spreading peace and joy through my bone,… Continue reading Why I love music
Small Spaces
I have a very small bedroom. There’s room for my bed, a wardrobe, a chair, my clarinet, a small space on the floor to sit on, some room under the bed for my stuff, and that’s about it. I’ve always felt trapped, in this small space. There’s no room to breathe, to be, to create,… Continue reading Small Spaces
Quiet Time
I’m not an introvert. I do enjoy socialising. I like going places, and meeting people. I like exploring new places, making new friends. I like to talking to others, even at meetings and parties. I battle my mind to go, and it’s usually worth it. I get in the zone, forget my mind for a… Continue reading Quiet Time
