hi, spring.









Springtime has arrived.

All around me trees are blossoming, flowers are blooming, the sun has come out to say hello, and temperatures have risen to a lovely warmth. Nature, which has been asleep for so long, is finally waking up and coming to its usual vibrant, beautiful life. In this current moment, when it feels like the whole world has ground to a standstill, it's heartening to see that nature is still continuing on its yearly cycles, growing and thriving as though nothing has changed. If nature can continue, then so can we.

I'm lucky that I've been able to be out in my garden these last few days and I'm able to safely go on short walks around my very quiet neighbourhood. The changing weather and flowering trees have definitely improved my mood lately. There's so much stress and uncertainty going around at the moment and it's so important to focus on the good in life -- keeping a positive outlook is one of the most important things you can do in a situation like this.

I hope you're all well and staying safe, try and keep calm and remember this will all be over before we know it!! Sending socially distanced hugs 😊😌❤️

Let's spread some positivity! Tell me about something that makes you happy? How have you guys been? (Does anyone still follow this blog?)

If you follow me on Instagram, sorry that you're seeing this again! I think I might start recycling some of my Insta posts in order to revive this site (I don't have any other post ideas lol).

    Everything here has turned such a vivid green. It's one of my favorite colors to see after so many gray days.

What I Want To Do In Life

I’ve gotten to a certain age where the question “what do I want to do with my life?” is something I’ve been asking myself (and been asked by others) a lot. And the thing is, I’m not too sure. Every time I try and think about the future and see myself as an adult, everything I see is blurry. But there is one thing that I know for certain that I want to do. I want to write. I want to write down every single one of the stories that live inside me, describe every single world that exists in my head, give voice to every single character that lives in my heart. I want to write page after page, pour my heart and soul and everything that makes me me into the pages of a novel. I want people from all over the world to read my stories and flock to bookstores to buy my latest book when it comes out. I want people to read my stories, to read me , because I put a little bit of myself into everything I write. But I’ve realised that that’s not all I want. I don’t want to be another good little author,

Indigo's Monthly Writing Challenge: November

Image
Hey guys, it's time for the November edition of my Monthly Writing Challenge! (Actually on time for once...) Can you believe it's already November?! Erm, hello? 2017? Can you hear me? WHY THE HELL ARE YOU GOING BY SO QUICKLY?!?! Like I swear it was September a few days ago?? Where has October gone? Can someone bring it back, please? No, I swear, this year is going by waaaayyyy too quickly. Is there like a stop button or something I can press to make time go by a little slower. Anyway, I hope you all had a spook-tacular Halloween yesterday! I didn't really do much, just stayed at home and opened the door to trick-or-treaters. (We get a LOT in our neighbourhood. I swear I was running to and from the door non-stop for about two hours. Halloween: the most exhausting night of the year.) I dressed up as a wizard, this was my costume: My mum made the cape and part of the hat, and I wore make-up for literally the first time in a year. The most frightening part of the day

"Not Like Other Girls" // Poetry

I’m not like other girls. I’m not beautiful, Or clever, Or talented, Or ambitious, Or loyal. I don’t know how to take a compliment and I sure as hell don’t know how to give one, I don’t know how to support other girls because all I think about is myself I don’t know what friendship truly means because I don’t really trust anyone, not deep down I only know how to be alone I can’t find happiness in the simple things Like pretty flowers Or a new eyeshadow palette Or a fairy-tale house Or a sunset I only see the rain Never the rainbow I only hear the individual notes Never the symphony I am a single black tulip among a field of beautiful, colourful blossoms And it hurts It hurts a lot I used to think I didn’t feel enough Now I know the opposite is true I don’t feel enough about the real world, I don’t care enough about the people and things happening around me I’m too detached from real life It’s frightening But I feel too much when it comes to my stories, my characters, the universe insi
