About

Name:VintagePretty
Location:United Kingdom

An avid tea-drinker who likes nutmeg in her coffee and warm lavender-scented quilts. She knits, crochets and partakes in random acts of craftiness (and kindness). She can often be found studying in a library which is nowhere as relaxing as the garden. She likes obscure works of literature, philosophy and the idea that her mind exists separately from her body. She enjoys moving furniture around, literary criticism and baking bread. She writes haiku about nettles, would like to swim with seals and become completely self-sufficient. She writes as if her life depends on it, listens to beautiful music, and loves her darling husband Mr. VP. Her life has changed dramatically since becoming a student, but she is learning that life is one wild and wonderful ride.

23 and a half hours. What everyone should know..

It’s not music, it’s not for pleasure. I consider this video something that everyone should see and then follow. Not only because it’s well-made, or from a reputable guy, but because who needs medicine when our two legs will suffice?

Walk for 30 minutes a day, every day. I have done mine today – but I know it can be so easy when you have a deadline to just sit in front of a PC all day. Resist the urge to do it. Walk. Who knows, it might save your life…

I will be back soon. It has just been a wearying (and wearing) couple of weeks. But spring is here, the birds are singing and the daffodils are out in full force. Je reviens (points to anyone who can work out the literary link to that!).
