As if I couldn’t be more old in the eyes of the youth.
Knitting is awesome. I say as a 83-year old trapped in a 18 year old body. As I drink my sweet strawberry tea in a knitted cardigan. While I don't know anyone under fifty who knits, I know everyone has at least a hobby. Knitting is mine.
And what better way to express my love, than through video?

Then April was honey. Sweet and full, rich in goodness so many enjoy.
I entered April bittersweet, with salty tears and malignant optimism. And I will end April more receptive and observant. As April was busy, without a bare moment to rest. And while I complained about January's busy schedule, I needed April to be busy after a sorrowful March.
So here are my Five Things in April...

If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you might have known my Sixth Form had their graduation ceremony. Academic Achievers were handed hard glass, symbolising the literal sweat and tears lost throughout the past two years. A celebration for being adequate on standardised testing.
A request I 'forgot.'
' I W A N T E Y E B R O W S O N F L E E K . '
Says everyone and their mother.
Some girls are naturally born with beautiful full brows but I wasn't one of them. While my baby sister inherited my mother's thick arched shape, I took on my father's sparse brow. So uncontrolled and shapeless. With the rise of the brows, I did what any sixteen year old with low self-esteem and inflated ego would do.
Drew on fake eyebrows for years. Until I was proficient enough to warrant a tutorial.

A trend so popular but so expensive.
From Anastasia Beverly Hills to the Jeffree Stars, liquid lipsticks have exploded. It's popularity blossomed on Instagram yet I had few in my arsenal. Good liquid lipsticks are are expensive. So I had assume I would wait for the next shipment of Kat Von Ds.
Until my eyes caught sight of Essence Liquid Lipsticks. Euphoria washed over me when I saw the price.
So I bought them all.

Forget about the tears cried last night. From all the pain of our strife. Perhaps then we'll find the happiness we need.
We sit in the dark, dulled in need of the golden sun. Nothing is right in the world so wrong. Vying for light beneath grey days. But when it is bleak, it will be bright. Perhaps we just need to look for the simple needs, letting go of desire. Perhaps then we can prepare for the life we want to live. Perhaps then we can finally rest in peace.
But I'm still searching for the simple bare necessities of life.
