This is the Starbucks at Rochester Park. It’s spacious and they serve their drinks in different mugs, different from other outlets.
How has the new year been for you? It’s already day 8, my my my. So far I’ve been trying out new recipes and being on the ball about work. As for tomorrow, I’m planning on practicing my embroidery. Keeping busy and upbeat and excited I guess.
I had this ambitious plan to go around town, taking photos of all the christmas trees. Didn’t quite take ALL. On top of that, I thought it’d be fun and so cool to try out a new type of film too! Namely Lomography’s Redscale XR film. It’s not that I dislike the film, I totally used it wrongly. I don’t know why it didn’t cross my mind that I would want to retain the green in the trees and have it yellow where it’s yellow and blue where it’s blue. BOOO MELLY.
Merry Christmas folks! And if you don’t celebrate Christmas, happy holidays! Spend time with your loved ones :>
Tuesday was the strangest day of my life. Ben & I skidded while riding my scooter. My rear wheel punctured which led the scooter to go out of control. “It’s as if we were riding on ice” is pretty accurate. This happened on the expressway as well so we were doing 80 almost 90km/h, it was scary. We both blacked out but Ben came to first. I suffered some memory loss for a few minutes after coming around. Then it was to the hospital in an ambulance, my awesome friends came to see us, got us home. Made a police report. Bought some supplies from the pharmacy. Sat down to have our first proper meal of the day. When we finally settled down at home, where it was just the two of us, exhausted but with a million thoughts running through our minds… I looked at him and held him and I was just so so relieved and thankful that he’s still with me. And I, with him. Nothing in the world mattered as much. It could have turned out a lot worse, and we were so lucky to get away with some cuts and bruises.
