H.A.P.P.Y

Mum arrived on Tuesday, and she appeared to have brought Summer with her to London :-) What a privilege to be alive and healthy, have the sun's warmth on my skin, and my loved ones around me!! Here are some pics from the last few days:

This fab tune is on repeat in our household, and really explains how I feel at the moment!

Endorphins release, Ellie Goulding & new trainers

'Hanging On' is the latest addition to my Power-Walk playlist on Spotify 

With sunshine pouring through our bedroom windows, I decided to start this Monday morning with a 5k power walk, getting the blood flowing. 

It's such a great way to amp up the energy levels!  Nonetheless, after four(!) years with the same trainers, I am now beginning to feel and see just how tired these running shoes are. Time to get new ones me think, and these pink and black ones are high on my wish list.

Best tune (and video) right now!

Happy Friday folks - hope it's a good un ;-)  We're going for dinner and cocktails at Benihana!

Monday music

There's nothing like a little bit of drum and bass to pick yourself up when you're feeling down

Relevant Rap!

This 'Motherhood' video made to promote the new Fiat 500L cracked me up!  Check it out, and give yourself a good laugh to beat the Monday blues! :-)

Solange on a Sunday

 Beyonce's lil sisters new tune is on repeat at home - really gets me in a jolly mood :-)

Monday music

Scottish sensation Emile Sande's beautiful song "Clown" is on repeat at our's today

Gangnam style

I simply LOVE this guy!  This video had me in tears from laughter - Best remedy to beat the post holiday blues! :-)

Painting in progress!

Today I'm making the most of having Sean in nursery all day and am painting our two tall stands/side tables, in glossy white, whilst listening this excellent House remix of Lana Del Ray (whom I don't usually like!)

On repeat - 'No Church In The Wild'

Simply love the track and the video (which officially was released today!) that Kanye West & Jay Z's did together for their album, Watch The Throne. 

This weekend I've listened to..

Erik, the entertainer!

Apart from being accepted and now studying Medicine at Imperial College, which is ranked top ten of world's best universities, (after already finishing a 3 year degree in Biochemistry and Forensic Science), my little brother is also somewhat of a musical genius, playing both the guitar and the piano. Here's a clip of him playing at my Mum's house last week - totally unaware of me filming.

As Sean is totally in awe of him, I'm hoping he will follow in his uncle's footsteps! No pressure there my son! LOL!

Fave Whitney tune

This is how I would like to remember her

My favourite Whitney Houston song of all times is undoubtedly this! I remember being a young girl dancing and singing this at the top of my lungs in front of the mirror, pretending the song was about my big crush at school (“How Will I Know if He Really Loves Me?!).  Even now at this age, I can't sit still when I hear it! LOL :-)

On repeat

I cannot stop listening to Rihanna's stunning new reggae-tinged track! Guessing I'm not the only one addicted as it's the most viewed clip on YouTube now!
