Something Weird Has Happened

I don't generally get all weird and emotional but I have a little lately... it's very strange. I get tears in my eyes for the oddest reasons, maybe I'm pregnant? Perhaps not. I've also become a fan of sad songs. I will hopefully snap out of this craziness very soon but for now, here are some of the lyrics to songs that I've fallen in love with recently:

'You used to call me your angel
Said I was sent straight down from heaven
You'd hold me close in your arms
I loved the way you felt so strong
I never wanted you to leave
I wanted you to stay here holding me

I miss you, I miss your smile
And I still shed a tear
Every once in a while
And even though it's different now
You're still here somehow
My heart won't let you go
And I need you to know'

~ Miley Cyrus, I Miss You

'Everyday I sit and ask myself

How did love slip away?

Something whispers in my ear and says

That you are not alone

For I am here with you

Though you're far away

I am here to stay

You are not alone

I am here with you

Though we're far apart

You're always in my heart

You are not alone'

~ Michael Jackson, You Are Not Alone

'He says he's so in love

He's finally got it right

I wonder if he knows

He's all I think about at night

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar

The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star

He's the song in the car I keep singing

Don't know why I do'

~ Taylor Swift, Teardrops On My Guitar

Cameo Jewellery

Cameo jewellery is a must this season (and look at me, two blogs in one day, not bad)! I was going to save this blog for later but I must express my love for it. I have at least three cameo rings, they have a great classy feel and compliment evening dresses really well.

This is my favourite from Accessorize as it's a little different. I think with fashion, it's good to follow the trend but you don't want to copy it. So okay, cameo rings are 'in' but the one above is a mirrored cameo ring therefore 'in' but different. Simples!

Seriously, you need this in your jewellery box.

Life's Going By Too Fast

I've been thinking a lot lately about everything really: life, love and the future. I guess being off college has given me a lot of time to think, maybe a little too much time. I just saw that I haven't blogged in over a month and that in itself proves how quickly life flies by and that scares me. I feel like I'm just walking through life and not achieving anything. I want to achieve and I want to do well. It's now August 1st (a pinch and a punch for the first of the month by the way) and this summer I've been trying to really get my life sorted. What do I want to do with it?

I start my second year of college in September but to be honest, I really don't know if I can face going back. I don't feel like it's going to benefit me at all and I'm sick of being surrounded by wannabe type people (you know what I'm talking about). You get to a point where you're like, do you people even know me? Because people don't know half of the things I'm thinking. So now I'm thinking of working really hard (at my lame office job) to go travelling for a year... or longer.

It's taken time but my head is sorted in the love life department too. I guess it's true that when you fall hard for someone it takes a long time to recover and I think I finally have. It hasn't been easy but I now have more of a clear mind about it. Sometimes things aren't meant to be which is sad but a part of life. Although I'm prepared for the fact you never fully get over your first real crush, I'm probably about 85% there.

I'm going to try and blog a lot more. It's a good way to release your trapped feelings.

Ciao for now,

Francesca :) x
