1. What is your favourite fruit or veg and Why

Lately I've been really liking strawberries and bananas and blueberries especially when it's with granola and yogurt! I don't know why but they are pretty basic fruits.

2. How are you all doing this week

I'm really tired and sleep-deprived but I feel stable and okay.

3. one thing or multi going well/not going well for you

I'm not doing well with managing my response rate to texts. All of my social media accounts have a bunch of message and my text messages are flooded and my email inbox is too. It's stressful because I find no motivation to respond to any of these messages.

4. one thing or multi things that you are proud off

I'm proud of my ability to be mature for my age. I don't know if it's an ability but I get told it a lot and I like that part of myself.

5. any goals what are they and when would you like to achieve them by

Short term goal right now is to finish my book by the end of this week and my long term goal is to find more time for self-care and "fun" things.

Bonus questions

6. What type of person are you - coming from QnA a day 5-year journal

I'm a people person!

7. Do you feel inspired today and why/what inspired you - coming from QnA a day for the soul journal the and why/what inspired you bit I added to make it more open-ended

I feel inspired by all of my hardworking friends because of how hard they work and it motivates me to work hard too hehe.

Love the puppy with watermelon GIF, sooooo cute!!! Thanks for the tag.

1. What is your favourite fruit or veg and Why

- Hmmm probably strawberries and red grapes- I love them!!

2. How are you all doing this week

- Not too bad, and I just realised it is now Thursday which means that I've had a pretty good week this week for the most part :)

3. one thing or multi going well/not going well for you

- Hmm, going well- probably the 7cups internship, I seem to be getting a lot done, which is really good as I was worried about this beforehand. It seemed a little overwhelming but seems okay now. I've had a few rest days this week, but still managed to keep things clean and tidy, which has been good too.

4. one thing or multi things that you are proud off

- Not too sure here. I'm proud of my partner this week for putting together an NHS and Keyworker thank you video for work- that was impresive

5. any goals what are they and when would you like to achieve them by

- Goals, get through each day in as little pain as possible, don't over do things but still keep on top of my chores etc. Stay positive and stay away from the news as this doesn't help AT ALL

Thanks for the questions :)
