and so

... the second semester of 2011 really begins for me tomorrow. Time to channel all my energy into this final semester of my Design degree, get a little more arty-farty and drink loads of tea.

Not unlike the image below.

{arty heart}

it shan't be long

... until my life is packed into a suitcase and the world becomes my oyster, travel - a friendly companion.

Soon.

Where will I meet you?

{a restless heart}

resonance?

I'm not sure of the significance of feeling like this song resonates with me right now, but I do love it.

I feel like I can get lost not only in the melody, but in the story. Maybe it's because I wish I could sing like these ladies.

It's so beautiful.

Find them here... and ponder these lyrics.

Even Though I'm A Woman - Seeker Lover Keeper

Woah I
I got a secret
I think I’m in love with missing you
More than I’m in love with you
That’s why I go away all the time
That’s why I travel the world and roam free
There’s a time you leaving me
This is how I feel
I feel like a traveling salesman

Even though I’m a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I’ll be lying if I did not say
I love you more and I’m missing you
That’s why I’m always away
Believe me it’s true

Woah I
I got a secret
I think I was born to be in a state of longing
Born to be wanting wanting
I put in a letter for you
I love the danger in distance
This time I’m leaving you
This is how I feel
I feel like a traveling salesman

Even though I’m a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I’ll be lying if I did not say
I love you more and I’m missing you
It’s why I’m always away
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true

I love the danger in distance
I’d rather be missing you
I love the danger in distance
I’d rather be missing you
I feel like a traveling salesman

Even though I’m a woman
Picking up my bags from the station
Standing there face to face
I’ll be lying if I did not say
I love you more and I’m missing you
It’s why I’m always away
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true
Believe me it’s true

fight the hard fight

Sometimes you need to focus on yourself

and forget the rest of the world.

Hope your day has been a victorious one.

{a strong heart}

feel like a travelling salesman...

An album to soothe the soul.

Tune into the wonders of Sally Seltman, Sarah Blasko & Holly Throsby's super-group Seeker Lover Keeper.

It's beautiful. And just what I need right now.

It's also MY SOUND OF NOW.

sometimes

... we all need a little reminder.

Amen.

on top

... of just about everything. Well, everything is an ambition for this weekend.

A couple of days off before uni resumes and I have some important design to do and sunshine by the river to soak up. Stroll sister?

What are your weekend plans?

A positive? I'm on top of my washing (now we all know what a good feeling that is!)... but I do wish my washing machine was as cool as this. Then I'd be up to date all the time... I'm sure ;P

Happy Friday y'all!
