The beauty of the moment is the beauty sadly lost

It's been a pretty quiet, dull two days since I last posted. I've spent most my time in bed reading, recovering from the intense exhaustion that seemed to have come over me. Feeling a little more alive today, still tired around the edges and have a busy night ahead! Mum's taking me to Hobbycraft in a bit to get my things for my Grandparents 50th Wedding Anniversary cake I'll be baking tomorrow, then we'll home have dinner and then we're dying each others hair. Mine's the harder since it's henna and I'll be sat around for 4 hours after with cling film around my head but it'll mean I can get some studying done. :)

Eating's going well since I got bargins for fruit the other day! Did have 3 digestive biscuits yesterday which I still feel bad about but at least there's none left now! The skirt I'm wearing today though used to be quite tight but now it's really loose! I weighed myself and I'm still the same weight.. means I'll have to do measurements tomorrow morning and I'm dreading it. Just thinking about it makes me feel sick cos I know I'm still too fat. *sigh* People keep mentioning I've lost weight but I seriously cannot see it at all even spending time in front of the mirror everyday to do my physio. :/

I've started a new book as well, Jostein Gaarder's 'Sophie's World'. I was recommended it in sixth form in my philosophy class and just never could get a hold of the library copy. Imagine my excitement when at Bookends in Northern Ireland they had a beautiful hardback copy (which I swear is unread!) for 50p!! I'm really enjoying it at the moment, it's such a good refresher or starter for anyone looking at the history of philosophy. I did find over the last year at uni studying philosophy I lost some of the taste for it, I actually became quite bored. This book has already piped my interest again, my natural unsastified curiosity about the world we live in. Anyone who has an interest in philosophy should read this book as it's a fantastic introduction!
