Resolutions

February 11, 2012 § Leave a comment

One thing that I need to stop doing: Crying over sad “story posts” on Facebook. And crying is never a tear up thing for me. It involves ten minutes of weeping, half an hour of curling in bed and a nap after. All because of a sad Facebook post. And there are many such posts these days. I wonder if all the stories are real? I hope they are not. I want the world to be happy.

The Cambridge Statchel Company

Here is another brand that I like. It also features leather in many colours. I think an 11″ would be perfect as a day bag. I cannot imagine this to be practical for school or to carry heavy things- books, files etc. It would look a little tedious on the body, no? Anyhow, still a beauty.

Of all their designs, I love The Classic and The Music Bag.

This is Karla Read. She is about my age and takes really beautiful black and white photos.

I am in love with all the emotions in these pictures. What are these women thinking? Their expressions.. leave one to wonder. The last shot is my favourite.

Beautiful Life

My friend posted a link to pictures of two adorable sisters on Facebook. They are so gorgeous! And if you read the blog where they are from: http://kristinandkayla.blogspot.com, you can see how loving their family is. I wish for a family like theirs one day.

Pilots

The love of my life is a pilot. He makes me happy during my saddest. Although we do have our moments, I am still very happy with my relationship. 🙂

Presidents

I love old pictures of Presidents. A man in power exudes an air about him that is so attractive. I do like my men in suits as well.

Handsome Reagan

I have not much of an inkling of Johnson save that he introduced one of those “Big Deal” or “Fair Deal” things. Yeap, I never did well in American History, or any form of history. Or school for that matter.

Truman

Older Bush. I wonder how it feels to have a father and son as former Presidents. It must be quite exciting for the people in their lives.

And currently, Obama!

Fields of Flowers

February 10, 2012 § Leave a comment

I love endless fields of wild flowers. I have lived in cities all my life and have never really had a taste of living close to nature. Maybe one day I will get to live in a cottage in the middle of a beautiful field of daffodils.

When the going gets tough, I would remind myself of the verse in the Bible that says if God can care for the Earth and dress it with beautiful flowers, how much more would He give you, His child? It’s a comforting thought, to know that someone somewhere is rooting for you.

Red Lips

My friend is having her 21st at a hotel in London this weekend and I am going with red lips. I am not too good with makeup and besides undereye concealor, I usually go without. However, I take the effort to dress up for special moments. Here are some pictures of women in red lipstick:

Red lips are so beautiful.

Valextra

A brand that I really like is Valextra. I like leather goods that are simple and come in many colours.

I especially love this pink wallet, but at £ 310.00, it costs as much as a month’s rent.

Hello WordPress!

February 9, 2012 § Leave a comment

Hello! My name is Maria! I am a student at a foreign university. I have depressive symptoms just like my father and sometimes find it really hard to see the positives in my life. I’m starting this blog to do just that. To string memories, events, thoughts that I have and pictures or posts that I like on the internet together. Unfortunately I do not have a camera, but I am thankful that the millions who do have made the internet such a beautiful place for me.

Where Am I?
