queen's house

Since it's Thursday, let's make it a throwback one. These pictures are from 2015 when I visited the Queen's House in Greenwich. If I had actually posted about it back then I would've probably had more to say as I remember having thoughts about it and thoughts while visiting. But, as per usual, I've let this post sit in my drafts for years and the only notes I've made re: what I wanted to write are: "Inigo Jones. Queen. La de da. Architecture, man." Why do I do this?

midsummertime sadness

In contrast to this, I wanted to write about a bout of summertime sadness that surfaced this week. Because even though I'm still happy about summer and excited about all the tiny things I have planned, I have layers and I'm also feeling sad. Maybe it isn't summer related at all, but that's how it started.

about history

I'm definitely one of those bloggers who has drafts dusting in the corners of my blog and laptop, whether they include photos, text or both that for whatever reason I leave unfinished. And they stay unfinished for weeks, months and years. At some point I'll come back to them and either finish and publish or decide it's time to move on as they are not relevant anymore, I don't feel like that anymore or sometimes I don't even have a clue on what I've been trying to convey with my ramblings. So here's one of those posts I've been meaning to post since before I graduated in 2015 - and was a bit sad about the possibility of it being the last time I study history. And I just felt like publishing it in the end and today's the day! I've edited this and most of the brackets are by 2018-Laura, not that I've really changed that much or changed my opinions since I first started writing this.
