Sarah goes to York

First stop: York

This small town girl visited York last December and left this post in the drafts for the past six months. 

Opps. Here it is, don't love me less, please?

York's sunrise

York Minster

Roamed around the town for the whole day, witnessed the bad flood drowning shops and houses.

    

The boys

We visited the Yorkshire Museum

Shoestring fries? No. Burger? Glorious.

Jay joined us late in the evening where we visited the National Railway Museum but... we arrived 15 minutes before closing time so we literally power walked the whole museum in a matter of 10 minutes. Just quick glance of everything, look, next, observe, next. Although we did not get to take our time absorbing all the train history, models and such, it was still a little fun adventure power walking through the insides of all trains, trying to avoid the officials as they ask visitors to head to the exit. It was fun.

His dream journal

I was riding a dragon/bus hybrid that was constantly shifting through the colours of the rainbow, whilst dressed as a medieval knight; wielding a long sword and shield. I was watching this all in third person mind you and saw myself charge into an army of frog/cat hybrids who also were dressed all medieval like. Whilst some fired "arrows" of black sludge at me, other charged at me with candy canes. Well it was a long and bloody battle but well I was victorious in the end. As I shouted a cheer, I saw my eyes start to wake up and well then I was awake in a hospital bed.

Undeserving

Hello there Internet, I guess it's safe to announce that second year of university has ended for me since I just took my final exam paper this morning. Due date after due date, writing essays, reports and studying lecture notes and books for the past couple of months can be pretty restless and soul draining. I'm not exactly fully complaining about it because I have great interest in what I have picked to pursue as a degree and I genuinely like what I'm studying. It's just that you know, sometimes, black and white, word after word, it can get mundane when it's not hands on, physical sort of work.

I definitely know for sure I am in no way fit to work a 9-5 job in an office in formal office wear, even the thought of it gives me anxiety. But I don't know, that's 21 year old Sarah's mind speaking right now, not sure if it will change in an hour or tomorrow or in a couple years or never. We'll see.

Anyways, I'm not feeling the best of myself lately. Just feeling like I can offer so much more to the world and contribute more for the better but at the same time I just want to stay on my very comfortable spot and not bother about calming my nerves when I go out to do sometimes. It's a constant battle with myself. Definitely been told by more than one person that I am truly my own worst enemy.

"Get your shit together, get it ALL together and put it in a backpack. All your shit so it's together. And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know? Take it to the shit store and sell it or put it in the shit museum. I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together. Get your shit together." -Morty Smith
