list three things every day that made me happy

1. Went to see the new house that my mum is buying – it’s lovely! Though it does make me sad to think of leaving our current house.

2. I had nothing planned for the evening so I spent it watching some Vicar of Dibley episodes from my box set – I love that programme!

3. The fact that I found the time to write a second entry in my website on learning about photography (www.kate-harris.co.uk)

1. I completely changed my plans for today and ended up sorting out all my holiday photos – it was lovely to realise that I currently have the freedom to do exactly what I want to do.

2. Today I drank (and still am drinking) lots of water – I’ve basically given up diet drinks now and am trying to be good to my body.

3. I found out my results come out 7 days earlier than I thought – though I am dreading them, I want them to be over and done with so I can get on with my summer without the nerves.

1. The fact that although my 2 week summer holiday ended on Saturday I don’t start my new job until september so have my last ever summer to laze around!

2. The memories my boyfriend and I made during our two week holiday in Scotland. The scenery up north is so dramatic, plus the pace of life is much slower and the people are much friendlier than in London. We also finally got to spend some quality time with each other and found that are relationship is stronger than ever, even after 6.5yrs. :)

3. Not knowing what I’m going to do today.

1. My birthday – I received sooo many messages of birthday wishes – it was really touching to see how many people remembered and then cared enough to get in contact with me.

2. Yesterday and today’s sunny weather after all the rain we’ve been having has come as a lovely treat.

3. The knowledge that in 2 weeks all my exams will be over!

Tuesday 22nd May

1. I got into college really early and got lots of work done.

2. We got let out of class early again – and it was the last ever employment law class! :D

3. I took the time to relax and read a bit of a non-legal book before bed – was a rare indulgence during the run up to exams.

Wednesday 23rd May

1. The gorgeous hot weather – such a change from last night! And I actually wore a nice cool white t-shirt so I was comfortable during the day.

2. I took the time to close our pro bono file – it’s finally done and dusted with – such a relief!

3. When I got home I expected to just veg out, but I got a second wind and actually got loads of work done before having a nice shower and going to bed.

Thursday 24th may

1. Once again the glorious hot weather – when walking to the station at 9am I had to take off my jacket and just walk in my t-shirt – it was really nice to quietly stroll in the warm sun.

2. Making the effort to finish all my work for Friday at college after class so that when I got home I had the whole evening off to do what I wanted to do.

3. I cooked dinner with my boyfriend last night and we ate it together while watching Heroes. I’ve not had an evening off all week, so it was wonderful just to relax together.

1. Lost a bit more weight this morning – a little movement on the scales – I love it!

2. Got into the legal advice centre early and sorted out the client’s problem that had been bothering me all weekend – it’s great to tie up loose ends.

3. I’ve just done my group assignment posting, and my last ever test and feedback on the course – it feels good!

1. Weighing myself in the morning and finding out that I’m finally below the weight plateau that I’ve been battling to get under for months! Now I’m really motivated!

2. The beautiful sunny may day. We’ve had so much rain recently that it was really nice to get some real sunshine – hot enough to require suncream.

3. Getting quite a lot of studying done during the day, despite feeling less than motivated.

1. This morning I woke up next to my boyfriend and had a lot of work to do, but spent some time just lying in his arms listening to him breathe. It was a really nice tranquil moment before a hectic day.

2. Taking some time out of my studies to take some photos of the garden after the rainfall: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kateharris/sets/72157600210540922/
They’re not anything special, but I enjoyed taking them

3. The prospect that if I can get all my work done by 9pm I can relax and watch a detective show I like.

1. I went to the gym and pushed myself really hard and achieved the highest ever speed for the 30min programme – I must be getting fitter!

2. In the evening I went out in London with all my friends to celebrate my 23rd birthday (early – it’s not until the end of may) – it was lovely to see everyone make the effort for me!

3. The moment of relief after i took my uncomfortable (but pretty) high heeled shoes off after getting the last train home.

1. The fact that it is friday is enough to make me happy as a lark!!

2. Finding out that all my friends have passed their exams too

3. Making the time to have a coffee with a friend who I no longer have classes with – it was only 20mins in between classes, but it was lovely to catch up with each other.
