Thoughts.

Hi, hello. Always fall in love with your best friends. The way you fall in love with books and movies. I don't mean have a relationship, I just mean fall in love with them. Realize they will be forever there for you, just like your favorite band, or that character on that show you like. I've been so lucky to get two soul mates and I'm only just 21. They are just like any other relationship ship, but we are mostly kidding when we make sexual advances. They will be the loves of my life, they may come and then may leave, but they'll have a place on my heart that is so much more special then any other friend. Fall in love with the way the make you laugh, or the look on their face when you haven't seen them in a while. With those super long hugs, or when they come to because you make them feel so safe. Don't just love you best friend, fall in love with them. Love them unconditionally and eternally.

Sorry I've even so quite lately, I've had a few blah weeks and just haven't been in the right state of mind to make sense of words. Though I promise the beauty part of this is coming soon. I'll have a haul possibly soon. But I had a wonderful day on Tuesday (the 4th) as it was my birthday and although it was quite, it was good. I feel so loved and humbled. I surround myself with such stunning people, sometimes I don't think I deserve them.
That bit I wrote up there was something I came up with in the middle of the night after receiving the first text of my birthday from my best friend, and it stuck with me as my other best friend texted me later on. There are two people I've been lucky enough to love in my life, and these are definitely it. Never ever take them for granted, no matter how much you sometimes want to strangle them, they'll be there for you in the blink of an eye. I'll definitely be uploading some snaps from my ever so exciting 21st which is this weekend, and I made a beautygram @fromcatstoconcealer if you are on instagram, follow me. I'm going to keep this short, some of my keys have stopped working and it's sending me crazy.

The best things in life are free.

Hi, hello.

First and fore mostly, happy 2014. I hope how ever you chose/choose to bring the year in, that it was safe and surrounded by people you adore.
As I was laying on the grass of Flagstaff gardens in Melbourne, and as the people slowly grew, I started to people watch. (This is something I do a lot, it often gets me into trouble because I make faces when I'm accidentally staring, oops) and as the clock drew closer and closer to midnight, the atmosphere just exploded. Picture this, thousands of people surround by friends and strangers counting down at the top of there lungs for a year of complete unknowns, a year of trying, succeeding, failing, a year that we all hope we bring us joy, and that wasn't even the most magical moment. Fireworks and colours filled the black night sky, between the booms and the cracks the "DJ" was playing a song that's title is unknown to me, (if you live in Australia, you'll know it as the free tv song) but the lyrics that made my heart explode with smiles were these
"the best things in life are free"
I was smiling like a Cheshire Cat, colours and sparkles and people, hugging, kissing, smiling, laughing, and for the first time I realized just how magical the smallest things can be.
I'm not sad about seeing the end of 2013, frankly the year was awful. I walked away with a spark of confidence about who I am, and what I'm doing, but I won't miss the darkness. I'm not setting goals or resolutions this year, if I've got nothing, I've got nothing to lose. And that's what I'm walking into dark abyss of 2014 with. No expectations, of myself or of anyone. If good things happen, then it will be a surprise and when bad things happen I won't be such a mess. I'm just going to appreciate everything around me, the people I love, nature, beautiful things, seeing people smiling, the first sip of a good coffee and you get drift.
If I can pass one thing onto anyone today, that would be to walk into 2014 with a smile on your dial, and know that whatever happens you'll be okay.
I give anyone and everyone permission to point this back to me in a month when I'm down and feeling sorry for myself. It might not work, but that's okay.
Life's okay.
I hope, if you're reading this, you tell the next person you see that you love them or appreciate them. The best things in life are free, you just have to look around and listen.
I'm going to leave you with a few photos I took, I haven't quite mastered my fancy camera yet, but I'm trying and challenging myself. Aiming for a photo a day this year, help bring my creativity back into swing. I love the photo of the crowd, everyone is just silent and staring at the fireworks, and for a moment we were all one.
I'm going to leave you with that. Thank you if you take the time to read this, it means the world to me.
Smile, always smile.
