low roar
hi guys! i hope you're all doing well. today's been a slow and easy day at home and the weather's been perfect, making me feel all sorts of calm and content. there's a chill in the air and i'm just anticipating the rain that (hopefully) comes this weekend! i have no plans for this post but i just wanted to drop in for a quick update and fill this post with cozy photos of today.
my mom's been sick so i've stayed home to take care of her, but i woke up at 6am this morning to make a trip to a dermatologist that i heard was suuuper raved about, only to arrive 2 hours before opening time anticipating the long queue, to discover that the derma doctor everyone queues for only gets in tomorrow. i was pretty peeved at that point (not to mention the morning sun was so hot) however the products they prescribed to me were pretty much the same stuff so i wasn't complaining. after grocery shopping and cleaning my woes away, i napped the late morning away.
the rest of the day consisted of snapping photos (i might post them up on here), vibing to seriously good music and drinking tea, whilst checking up on mother dearest every once in a while. i also made a smoothie bowl which was super scrummy!
i don't know, i started "the wrath and the dawn" but i'm just not feeling it which is making me sad because i was so excited for it! i'm still only 40 pages in and i've lost the motivation to pick it up again. i think it's because of how descriptive the writing is, and while that's a good thing, i'm a visual person and it takes me forever to read a page when my mind is so hell bent on creating every intricate detail of the dress a character wears as the author describes it in the book. it's quite tiring. but i have no plans tomorrow except a celebration at night so i'll try picking it up again and we'll see how it goes! let me know what you guys are reading!
i have to dash out of the house for a meeting now, but the sunset is so gorgeous i just want to stay in my room and stare at the ball of golden fire sinking over the horizon of concrete buildings!
xoxo, ali.
