Good morning; good afternoon; good evening, everyone! I decided to type this entry up in the evening, in order to tell you about my day today, which, I must say, was quite enjoyable.
The day began with me waking up at 7:00 am to go for a morning run. This was somewhat of a new experience, as I usually opt for evening runs instead to not have to go through the waking up part. Surprisingly, I found the run quite pleasant, and this may not be the last time I chose to run in the morning. Have you ever gone for morning runs?
A few hours after that, I made my way to my friend's house to put together a puzle. Now, I know what you might be thinking, 'Ksenia, why are you going outside? You should be staying at home', so allow me to explain. I think that if I don't go out to any public places, it is perfectly reasonable for me to visit a friend at her house once in a while. Especially seeing as I drive there without making any stops on the way. Anyhow, the puzzle started off like this:
The image we were attempting to collect was of a nighttime view of London in the area of the Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben, for all you non-qualified Brits). The puzzle was made up of 1,000 pieces. Spoiler alert: we did not complete it.
After spending perhaps a little over an hour celebrating every two pieces we managed to put together, we were able to put together the middle of the tower, and about three quarters of the Ferris wheel:
This is also the point where I started getting fancy with my photography of the puzzle :)
Realising that both of us would soon get fed up if we continued, we agreed to take a short break. Somehow, the short break turned into us making pancakes (which came out great), and miserably, yet hilariously, failing to do simple coordinated yoga poses. After all that fun however, the puzzle was calling for us again.
After little snippets of progress, we decided to end the puzle off with the ferris wheel figured out, and most of the tower pieced together along with it:
Oh, and here's a bit more of my creative photography:
Have you done a puzzle or anything similar while staying at home thus far?

Yes I am currently doing a puzzle right now. Weird isn't it?
ReplyDeleteWhat a peculiar coincidence
DeleteThere is something beautiful about a post about a jigsaw...I love it!
ReplyDeleteP.S. The Big Ben is actually the bell- this is one of my favourite random facts haha!
I wish we'd completed it. I think the post would have felt more satisfying to read.
DeleteYep, Big Ben is indeed the bell. Very happy to know that little fact myself :)
I checked out your blog and it's amazing! I loved it. I decided to leave my comment here because this post in particular was so fun to read. I send you a "high five" from Puerto Rico. You are doing a great job! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I'm so happy you liked my blog. Sending a nice high five right back to you from Thailand!🖐🏻🙂
DeleteI sometimes go on morning runs with my family (a scowl visible on my face all of the way lmao) don't get me wrong, I love waking up and taking a walk in the mornings, just in my own time. Maybe walk by myself instead of forced to jog. Mostly I would be content to just curl up in bed and enjoy that hazy post-waking up moment in the morning.
ReplyDeleteAnd the most puzzling thing I'm doing so far is my homework. It's taking up all of my time lmao
Good read! You're so active in your blogging
Thank you for your comment)). Morning runs aren't entirely my thing either, but it looks like I do enjoy them once in a while after all. Although I do agree with you about the curling up in bed :)
DeleteGood luck with your homework. You'll power through one way or another))
