Self Improvement.

“Better In Time”

First things first, thank you all for the flurry of encouraging and kind messages in regards to my post on exactly why I moved back to London. I always feel so overwhelmed with the outpouring of love I receive from this little space on the web, and it still feels so strange (but very lovely!) that people *actually* care and are interested in the mundane aspects of ones life, but I digress. Everyone keeps telling me one of two things every time they discover I have *finally* finished Architecture School. The first being that I should enjoy my time sans employment and use it to rest and just do things I wouldn’t be able to do if I was in a full time job. The second being that my time will come and that I shouldn’t lose hope and veer off into a different path (which feels very tempting at the moment..). So I’ve been doing just that – Channeling any time I’m not using to freelance or apply for jobs into creating somewhat meaningful content for the blog, read more of the books I have stacked in piles around my room and generally learn a few new skills. Who said you couldn’t teach an old dog new tricks eh?

I’ve been using some of my free time to learn new skills or practice and improve on old ones. I’m currently improving my conversational French with the help of Duolingo, as well as attempting to learn Spanish (Hola fellow Narcos fans!) and Japanese (Attack on Titan caused this…). I’ve also been attempting to get a little more creative with the editing for my blog posts. Sitting on Photoshop is genuinely one of the things I actually quite enjoy in this life, so I’ve been happily clicking away putting polka dots and brush strokes on just about everything and anything – What say you on the new graphic style? I’m even considering jumping back into the world of YouTube, but who knows! Anyway, things will get better in time. In the meantime, lets try to enjoy the journey and better ourselves along the way.

    Ooh Sade this look is giving me life! I love your dress and the pops of red are gorgeous. But most of all, I love your lipstick. It looks great on you. Glad you're spending your free time doing stuff you love and also creating content for your blog. I for one am loving the consistency. Have a great week :)Coco Bella Blog

    Love the outfit! I have the same dress but I wouldn't have thought to add red accessories, so I'll definitely try that!It's so easy to get down on yourself when you don't have a job. I've been interning on and off for a year since graduating and I'm back to interning again haha, but the most important thing is definitely filling your time with things you like to do.Also yesss Attack on Titan!Belle in Black and White
