I started the day off sulking in bed about Saturday night. 11 o'clock turned into 12 and I was up, walking to the kitchen and shovelling coffee into a mug, before walking away to turn the kettle on and go to the bathroom. After washing the drink over my tongue to eradicate the minty taste from my toothpaste, I sat down at my laptop to start my day. I caught up on Sunday's youtube, my favourites having posted mid-morning ready for me to watch after I awoke from my slumber.
One questionable black coffee later - I began to sort out breakfast. My breakfast of choice in the recent months in simple terms has been eggs of some description on toast, but the plate is usually populated by various veg options - whatever feels right that day. Today was a french-style-scrambled-eggs-and-wilted-spinach-on-sundried-tomato-and-chill-toast type day. It was surprisingly good. I've got into (trusting and) experimenting with the bread choices at the uni bakery, whatever choice I make usually pays off.
Then for the following two hours, I wasted essential uni time on Netflix, getting well into 13 Reasons Why, while snacking on dates and almonds... The flavour combo inspired a sugar-high Christina to attempt to make energy balls with leftover ingredients in my food cupboard (they turn out very nutty, but the recipe should be up soon regardless).
Midday came and went, and I found myself in a state of limbo. I don't know I didn't know what to do other than go on a walk to try and clear my head. So I did. I walked to the reservoir and watched the sun set. As it did the flowers did their melancholy bow, thanking the sun for the day, the birds disappeared into the dusk.
I went home. I went to bed.
