Blue Monday.

Hello everyone!

Blue Monday. 

The third Monday in January.

The most depressing day of the year.

Apparently.

Every year, I hear about 'blue Monday' but I never know when the day falls until it's here. Basically, it's just another Monday in my eyes.

And yeah, Mondays can be tough at the best of times. But they can also be a great excuse to start again. 

A new week = a new beginning. 

Most people have given up on their New Year's Resolutions by now, according to 'research' which determines when Blue Monday falls. Everyone is back to work, school, college, wherever you are in life. You're hitting a low after the Christmas season, which was 3 weeks ago by now. 

I can see how it would be a tough time, but I don't see why you should make it a tough time.

Get out there. 

Keep going. 

Get motivated. 

Do something. 

Enjoy your Mondays. Make them worth while. 

Until next time.

Escape.

Hello everyone!

Ok, so probably not the best title I could have come up with. Don't worry.. I'm not trapped somewhere. 

Except life. 

Too dark?

Sorry....

Myself and three of my friends 'escaped' to the beach yesterday. I say escaped because that's what we did. We decided to go for a drive to a beach in Galway city and have a picnic (yes, a picnic on the beach the first week of January - we're crazy). But we all needed it. Just some time away from reality. Because that's all that everyone needs every once in a while.

I saw a quote today that explains this a lot better than I am right now. 

"I am just another Alice who's trying to find a way out of her head and into a Wonderland."

I don't know who said it or where it came from, but it spoke to me (yes, words spoke to me...no, I'm not gone insane...). That's exactly how I was feeling. I just wanted to run from everything that was going on in my mind, forget everything going on in my personal life, and just escape. Even for just a few hours.

And it was amazing. 

I had a lovely day with three of my best friends. We laughed. We talked. We sang. We had a grand old time really. I hope to have days like this more often this year. 

Drapetomonia. 

Noun. 

An overwhelming urge to run away.

We all experience this urge. Some of us every day. 

Just keep smiling. You never know who it might help. Including yourself.

Until next time.

P.S. I'm sorry I've had to turn the comments off. People were commenting on posts about my personal life. Things that weren't even relatable to the post. For those who comment sincerely, I'm sorry.
