I’ve seen these Taking Stock posts in a number of blogs that I read, and I thought it would be cool to do my own. So let’s do it!

Making : time to write in my gratitude journal daily, even if it means waking up 30 minutes earlier. So far, so good

Cooking Eating : a lot of salads – best thing about summer

Drinking : lots of water lately (at least trying to), I have been off my game

Reading: nothing at the moment, I just finished reading Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s Half of a Yellow Sun last month

Looking: for the perfect pair of black jeans – my faves recently tore *boo hoo*

Playing: Four Door Aventador by Nicki Minaj, my favourite song at the moment, I love the beat! I play it in my car, at work, at home, basically everywhere

Wasting Not Wasting: Electricity! Load shedding is so real right now, doing my bit to use electricity wisely

Wishing: that I had already done the bungee jump that I am planning to do this year…thinking about it still makes me soo nervous!

Enjoying: being back to my normal routine, travelling is cool, but oh boy does it throw me off my game

Waiting: on a few deliveries of goods that I bought online that I have not received after a month!
Liking: my new wig

Wondering: if I will ever receive the goods I bought online last year not knowing that the post office workers were on strike, I have a feeling they are somewhere in a warehouse gathering dust!

Loving: the new Nicki Minaj album, I have been playing it non-stop since I bought it

Hoping: to finish my list of 30 things to do before 30 – it seems quite daunting at the moment

Marvelling: at the beautiful flowers I have been noticing lately, so lovely!

Needing: a manicure

Smelling: my new Jasmine Velours candle – I am loving the scent

Wearing: PJ’s

Noticing: that this summer has not been as hot as the previous one! what’s up with this cloudy weather

Knowing: that this month is going to be amazing

Thinking: about what I should wear to work tomorrow

Feeling: great because I finally went for a jog this afternoon after putting it off for so long

Bookmarking: this video – love, love, love it!

Opening: all my new make up that I bought while I was overseas *feels like my birthday all over again*

Feeling: happy 🙂
