Thank Frock It's.. Sunday! ♥

How do you know when you're massively, MASSIVELY behind on one of your weekly traditions, i.e., It's Friday?! Well! Other than a lurking sense of urgent guilt, there's the off chance that your best friend MAY just message you with the title ''IT'S SATURDAY!'' , as an all-important reminder of exactly what you HAVEN'T DONE. Oops. I'm terribly sorry! In addition to building report dramas, bidding craziness, an achy-breaky heart (it turns out that no sleep + a week of rubbish eating + copious amounts of energy drinks + high stress aren't so fantastic for your chest - who knew?!) and general real estate mayhem, things started to get REALLY interesting when Sydney's torrential rain forced our roof to collapse, submerging our entire house in water, and resulting in an epic flood... eek!

 Yes, it's been seven days of pure calamity, but honestly? Often, that just makes it even MORE important to take a deep breath, close your eyes and savour everything that has been magnificent... so behold, my love-filled list of exactly that! :

x Feng Shui - Oh, I know. The idea of employing a host of ideas from an ancient Chinese system of aesthetics may sound nuttier than a bowl of cashews, but to me, it makes so much sense! The concept works around the belief that by arranging your furniture and adjusting the positioning of objects in your home, you'll encourage productivity, prosperity and creativity, and to me, that's a philosophy entirely worth exploring! Earlier in the week I printed off a Ba-Guap map, and began to excitedly plan exactly how I can implement its suggestions into my new place... HOORAY!

x Kismet - Ah, kismet. You funny little beast. Apart from being a word that's a whole bunch of fun to repeat, or possibly a name of one of Kermit The Frog's relatives, it refers to the act of fate or destiny, and lately, I've found a lot of comfort and truth in its sentiment. Sometimes, when seemingly dreadful incidents occur (an unsuccessful application for a job that you REALLY wanted, a relationship break-up or an argument), it can feel like things aren't working out properly, or that life is playing a cruel prank on us... until a month or a year later, when we sit back and think ''a-HA! So that's why that happened, I GET it now!'', and realise that ultimately, things were working out exactly as they were supposed to.

x Developing Health Resolutions - My attitude to my health varies from almost saint-like to wildly innappropriate, and after falling ill this week, I realised once again just how crucial it is to nurture your body with adequate nutrition... there's only so much nonsense that it will put up with! So, as a result, I've developed a series of health resolutions, and while they only involve small steps, such as increasing my water intake, cooking more and upping my iron levels, they're positive changes!

x Other Little Things - Carob coated licorice sticks; daydreaming about interior design; wholewheat spaghetti; large stacks of magazines; saving my pennies; fresh flowers; Pitbull; camp-outs; reminiscing about the Popcorn song; rediscovering old books; and contemplating new hair!

How was your week?
