Mosquito Bites & First Kisses

6:16am

My body just automatically woke up, I’m lying in bed listening to the outside world, 

My feet are itching

This is my 10th day in Malawi, so far I haven’t done much but chill,

Night time adventures are uncommonly common, with my crazy uncle and aunty, if the baby is sleeping, on my first night here they took us (me and my big bro) out for brownies,

They make me eat a lot here, my grandma keeps asking me why I’ve become so thin, every meal time someone will remark on how much I eat, I don’t like it. 

It reminds me of the time my bad thoughts taunted me into skipping meals and obsessing over the tiny number on the scales when I stood on them nervously, when I used to suck my stomach in in front of the mirror. My haunting issues. I do not want to be reminded of them,

They sometimes come to tap me on the shoulder, but now I can brush them off.

Most of the time…

I’ve had my first kiss.

Read that again, 

I have had my first kiss, at the age of 16 years old, I kissed the person I love, and let me tell you, it was awesome! 

We’re the same height, me and him, he smelt good, his hair was soft, his smile adorable, his lips were stubbornly shy,

His taste… MY LORD, LET ME TASTE THAT TASTE AGAIN!!!!  FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE PLEASE! 

He bit my lip. That’s not me complaining by the way,

I walked home with a huge smile on my face, and a tingly feeling in my lips, his taste lingered for a few hours, I must have been in heaven or simply sky high.

I remember holding his hand, nuzzling his neck, looking at him, the simple act of looking at him gave me chills, 

I miss him. 

My lipstick got all over him, he just smiled when I started rubbing it off his face, 

I remember it as the best day of my life so far.

He kissed me 3 times, we didn’t really know what we were doing, figuring out how to kiss, 

But it was good. Better than good. 

Just being with him was good. Just looking at him in person after so long apart. I never wanted to stop looking at him.

Enough of my teenage quarms, I am simply telling you the news of my slow moving life at god knows what time in the morning,

I do want to go back to sleep, I want to type this before that,

I forgot to post this damn thing now it’s 9:13 

😂😂😂😂

Byes peoples ❤️

Living The Good Life

I’ve been having such a good time, I haven’t been able to post as much, I swear soon I’ll update y’all, AND I HAVE SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUTTTT!!!!

Until then, keep living the good life people!!! 🙌👏💙

I’m Flying!!! Part 3

Currently on my flight to Nairobi?

Tired af, but I know I won’t be able to sleep 😑

So I’m gonna shut my eyes and see what happens?

I’ve had 1 hour of real sleep in the last 18 hours and I don’t know how I’m still functioning 😭

I mean I can barely stay awake past 11pm normally?!

I’m worrying about my writing, I didnt take any notebooks with me for this holiday, but if inspiration hits, I have the notes app

My head’s pounding and I can’t be bothered to get up and get painkillers 😑

Thankfully I have a seat with extra leg space BUT no front pocket thingy, so all my stuff is overhead somewhere, and I don’t want to disturb the sleeping…

I could watch a movie or something?

My mind is too frazzled to make sense of what I’m reading,

I want a bed, a shower, a large mocha and a hug, 😭😭😭

I’m tired of travelling now,

😑

I have one more flight after this but first have to sleep at Nairobi 😱

I dont think I’ll be able to,

I might pass out as soon as I land in Malawi 👀😂

Okay that’s not funny, thatms a real possibility,

I want to thank you guys and wordpress for keeping me occupied on my flights 😂

My lips hurt ?

Hmph I’d better go and try to sleep now? 

Byes 💕 xxx

I’m Flying!!! Part 4

I’m currently sat at my gate in Nairobi airport, I’ve been at this airport for AGES, I am entirely bored, but hyper at the same time?

I haven’t slept properly in 2 days but I feel so awake, 

Hmph this is totally going to fuck up my body clock,

Oh well, I’ll just have to train myself to wake up at 5 again once school starts, hahaha like it was easy the first time 😑

I have eyebags the size of the moon, I’m not even exaggerating, 

I NEED SLEEP!!! WHY CAN’T I SLEEP?!

I’ve only had 2 coffees since I left London, why does life hate me so much?

I think it’s probably the fact that I don’t like sleeping in front of people??? Strangers to be specific, don’t you find it weird? I mean I sat next to 2 strangers for an 8 hour flight, and I don’t even know their names?! I find that weird.

Anyways, I’ve seen 3 sunrises so far, I find that so cool, even though I’ve done this journey SO many times before, I still get fascinated…

I’ve just been told my flight’s been delayed! 😡😡😡😡

I’VE WAITED EIGHT HOURS AND IT’S DELAYED!!!!

God I’m really cranky,

I don’t even know what I was going to say now… 😑

I’m not hungry but I want breakfast, real breakfast, nowhere here does real breakfast, AAAARGH!!!! 

Okay I need to chill and find food, 

Byes for now ❤️

Happy August! xxx

I’m Flying!!!! Part 2

I’m currently sat on an airplane next to my brother 😂
I have nothing to do, my mind’s too high to read so here I am talking to you guys, I won’t even be able to post this until I land 😑

Hmmm

I have found that people at airports smell GOOD, hats off to everyone smelling good that I’ve passed! 😂👏🙌

Why are there so many cute strangers? 😭 jk

Ew I’m being so teenagery now I have a phone 😂

I should get some sleep… I’ve been awake for 12 hours 😱😱😱😱😱😱 that’s an all nighter!!!! Woke up at 8pm and now its 8am.

Waiting for everyone to board takes so long 😑

I might type the whole flight but I can’t drain my battery…. Hmmmm, decisions, decisions….

This is my first flight of 3, heathrow to amsterdam

Amsterdam to kenya

Kenya sleep for a few hours

Then to Malawiiii!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

My eye just started watering randomly?

I really should sleep, let me try….

Adios ❤️ Hope you’re all okay and enjoying life! OHMYGOD IT’S AUGUST!!!! xxx

I’m Flying!!! Part 1

I’m at heathrow babiessss!!!

Okay I’m not calling you babies, just thought I’d try it out but my ‘inside my head voice’ makes it sound so cringe 😂😂😂

Anyways, I is waiting for my flight to Amsterdam, I’m surrounded by strangers, I’m sat on the floor near a charging pole because I’m just weird and have managed to drain my battery already!

If you see a hijabi in a superman shirt on the floor of heathrow c’est moi! 😂🙌

I realised too late that my free music app only work with wifi 😂 I’m so dumb 😭😭😭

Does anyone know any good apps that work WITHOUT wifi?

Also someone needs to teach me how to stop humming/tapping my foot/playing air piano/biting my nails when nervous! Like seriously!!!

Idk what I should do now,

Other then being a teen….

I saw a BEAUTIFUL sunset today 😍👌

And I am obsessed with Grown Woman by Beyonce ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Though it may be old, it makes me feel empowered and generally makes me want to dance! 🙌😂

Hmph

I’m seriously becoming a blob

My first flight is to amsterdam

Then to kenya where I’ll stay a night

Then to malawiiiii 💕❤️💕❤️

People smell so good at airports! 😂🙌 I’ve passed by so many strangers who smell AMAZING! Hats off to you good people! I need this in my life.
