This post has nothing whatsoever to do with fashion, but I'm sure my readers won't mind too much if every so often I write just about some things that make me happy. Maybe I should change my blog title to:
Emma Loves Fashion (and random things that make my day)
Or maybe not.
I don't know about you, but I like reading posts about happy things and happy people. The happiness reflects in my mood.
Anyway, just to prove my point that this post has NOTHING TO DO WITH FASHION WHATSOEVER, here is my outfit from today:
Classic jeans and black t-shirt: Nothing special.
Haha! The one with the weird hand gestures is an action-pose from when I was telling my brother:
'Make sure you get my entire body in, yeah? From head to toe.' It's turned out to be my favourite picture. (That's an apple in my hand btw. Nom nom nom)
So I was out and about in Town today with my umbrella, and
Oh my days, the weather was terrible. Drizzly, cold, and cloudy.
I was just crossing the High Street and passed a busker, whom we'll call Mr. Busker, playing his acoustic guitar. He was playing
Go-Ya-Ha by Phil Collins, and he had a
pretty nice voice.
At this point, I wasn't playing all that much attention. But generally speaking, I feel rude if I just pretend Buskers aren't there, particularly today when it couldn't have been much fun for him to sit and play in the cold and rain.
So I flashed him a smile, not a silly shy smile, a
Real, Proper Smile, like this: :DAnd just as I passed him close by, suddenly, like, real suddenly, he stops
Go-Ya-Ha and begins another song which I didn't recognise, but I remembered the first line:
Well I guess it would be nice, if I could touch your body, I know not everybody, has gotta body like you!
And I can't tell you just how nice it was to have Mr. Busker sing this little song, just for me, on this cold and rainy day. He might have noticed that I was looking pretty miserable or he might have been complimenting me, I don't know.
I also don't know if anyone noticed his sudden change of tune, or if this little exchange of communication between us was our little secret :PBut, I'm telling you, it really, really made my day.
I Youtubed this line when I got back, and found it's from
Faith, by George Michael.
So here's the song. It makes me think happy thoughts.
I'm sorry to say I didn't tip Mr. Busker because I didn't go back that way. But I assure you, if I see Mr. Busker again, I will.
If it's raining where you are, Dear Reader, or if you're just feeling blue for whatever reason, I hope this post puts a smile on your face like it has for me.
:)
Much love,
Emma
