    I finally get to see my best friend again. We haven't met up since February. We get to meet at the sort of local trampoline park at the weekend! :)

    My sister got married yesterday! 
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Recovery

    When you're stuck in your destructive behaviours it feels like you'll never see the end of it. Truth is, recovery is hard, recovery is tiring and recovery is a real pain but it's absolutely worth it in the end. Being free from self harm and bullimia gives you the kind of freedom that makes you want to climb to the highest mountain and scream out of joy. I had a moment yesturday whilst I was laying in bed; It dawned to me that this is what recovery was...a peace of mind and the ability to feel joy again.

    People who have been in recent chats would know that I am in a performance at the end of this week due to being in a 1 week performing arts course. I promised I would announce my part as soon as I find it out.

    I am proud to announce that I have the part of [drumroll please...] The Sultan. I am also part of the talking statues and a villager. Oh and I do a singing duet. As you can guess we are doing Aladdin.

    Yay my time off for my birthday in September has been accepted now so I won't have to pretend I'm sick lol
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    So looking up holidays for 2020 and realised how cheap Bali is and I'm thinking that's gonna be my destination, fly out and stay in airbnbs and it's literally so cheap out there from all the research I've done.

    Looks like I'm saving for a trip to bali

    It's very cheap in Bali! You should go to Ubud! They have a monkey forest you can go to and the monkeys are so cute!

    Literally one of the places on the list of visiting I want to do. I didn't realize how cheap it was till I properly looked into it! (Only thing that scares me is the flight because you have to like stop in another country then catch another flight and the thought of that scares me because never done it before)
    I take it you've been to Bali?! Anywhere else you'd suggest?

    Changing flights can be quite scary but it's actually okay! Usually you'll have a stopover for a few hours and it's quite nice breaking up your journey. There's lots of signs around the airport letting you know where to go if you're going onto another flight :) 

    Yeah I've been to Bali! It's one of my favourite places I've ever been. Would love to go back one day! I went to this island called Gili Air. They have amazing beaches and swings in the sea. In Ubud, there's lots of rice fields you can walk around which are so pretty. You should make a Bali thread so I can share more with you! :)

    You can't eat orbeez. You sure it wasn't the jelly balls they use in boba tea?

    My stomach says it was orbeez (I am pooping a lot- eww.) It was probably jelly balls but I have no clue.

    Was getting anxious as waiting for a delivery and they had missed the time slot. 
    Only to get a phonecall to say they were stuck in traffic and were very sorry 
    Who knew delivery services for that 😂

    And breathe
