Credit to my mum for the very clever hump day/Trump day witticism. It's time for another weekly 'things that made me smile' blog post. This one wasn't as easy to write as last week's one was because it's been quite a long stressful week. After coming back from a relaxing week off, college assignments and revision have taken over seeing as we only have 4 weeks until our Christmas exams. Eeek. Let's not even mention the recent American presidential election result.
Having said that, there were a few key moments this week that put a grin on my face. Without further ado:
1. Standing on the balcony looking over the estate at the back of our apartment and seeing two dogs walking up the road together, side by side, and then both running into a garden as if they were best friends for life.
2. The fact we only have two Christmas exams and are finished on December 15th. Score.
3. Becoming Class Rep for my course, alongside my friend Oliwia.
4. This week's free food finds from AIT's Student Union: lemongrass, courgettes, coleslaw, a lovely seedy loaf of bread, and some Tesco Finest stuffing.
5. Looking up at the stars with my boyfriend and having a deep conversation about life, the universe and everything in between.
6. Making a last minute decision to go to Lidl last night - and finding a wet, dirty €20 note on the ground outside.
7. Realising there are some genuinely really nice people out there who do care when you complain about stuff. Faith in humanity restored.
So there's just a few happy moments from my week - did anything happen to you this week that cheered you up? Let me know, and remember, keep smiling. :-)
