today I chopped my hair off.
tomorrow I go to London.
The snow is so pretty today, I’m glad I get to stay inside with all my uni reading rather than heading outside in it though.

Why are some of the most enjoyable things in life considered self-destructive?
Maybe sending just one ‘x’ is my new goodbye for life text.

Why is it that people can’t just read good books, have good music taste and watch good films? Why does one have to be sacrificed for the other? A human with perfect taste must be out there.
Putting my schedule together for Leeds International Film Festival is a little overwhelming when the ridiculous website won’t let me buy the tickets. Frustration!
It’s 8.30AM and I’m waiting for my housemate to finish getting ready so we can head off to a car boot sale at Leeds Airport.
After that, I’m heading home for a a couple of nights to do some things in London. Seeing an actor to talk about the film, hopefully catching a few London Film Festival screenings, having dinner with my best friend but most importantly, witnessing the...
The pain of investing everything into a screenplay and not knowing whether it is good enough is ridiculous.
If anyone is open minded and wants to read a screenplay about sexual politics, I’m your girl.
After a summer of such highs, my return to Leeds hasn’t been as jubilant as usual.
This summer was the first one I’ve had in a long time that I loved nearly every second of. Even when things went wrong, it didn’t even phase me because I was so happy. I was so productive; I worked freelance as a producer, I visited a city I fell in love with, I let myself get close to someone...

At 6AM this morning, stood on a bridge in the middle of Berlin waiting for the sun to rise, I experienced the true meaning of lost in translation.

Thought Catalog has this way of putting exactly what I feel into words. One day I hope to write something eloquent enough to do that for someone else.

Someone described me today as the only girl they know that leaves the house without looking in the mirror. When I’m working this is pretty much the most accurate description of me.
I’m so close to being done with work and yet I still get pulled in to maybe coming back in my christmas break to cover someone else. I need to learn to say no.
Today, I got soaked on the way to work after being thrown off my train and then having my subsequent train be delayed at every station while I stood next to the door. I got to work an hour late, which hid the fact I woke up half an...
I have one more week left at work and since my favourite person at work left on Friday, this week is going to drag. Today, I got to ride to a Boris bike around in the yard while the drivers were on a course so I should stop complaining about my job as it’s not all bad.

Somebody get me a laptop and internet connection in this house, I’ve so much I want to write about!
I kinda fell of the face of the earth as far as tumblr was concerned but I was out doing important things like going to Ireland, seeing friends and doing producer-y things for my job. I have such a hectic few weeks coming up, it’s a tad ridiculous how I have planned my life. Summer is practically gone, I miss it already!!
It looks like I am going to get away this summer after all. After giving up Exit Festival for a job that never came through, I was really gutted but now I might be going to Berlin with Tom and Abbi and Budapest with the mother. I’m so glad I still get to see Hungary and Berlin has been on my list for so long now.
If anyone has been and has recommendations, let me know!
There are countless things in life I wish I could capture and hold on to. Capture on film, distill into a photograph or find the right words to cling onto someone else’s senses, wrapping around until the feeling is in their bones too.
The summer train rides home from the city. If only I could keep hold of that exact colour of light that fills the carriage as the sun sets outside. Half...
