["I want all of you, forever, you and me, every day."]

From The Notebook. Possibly the most romantic films I have ever seen and the one that made me look like a ghoul afterwards as my liquid eyeliner has run all down my face.

This is one of my favourite parts.

Noah: Will you go out with me?

Allie: What? No.

N: No...?

A: No.

N: Why not?

A: I dunno, because I don't want to.

N: OK, then you leave me no other choice.

A: AHHHH

N: I'm gonna ask you one more time, will you or will you not go out with me? I think my hand's slipping.

A: OK, OK. Fine I'll go out with you

N:No, don't do me any favors.

A: No, no I want to.

N: Say it.

A: I wanna go out with you.

N: Say it again.

A: I WANNA GO OUT WITH YOU!

N: All right, all right we'll go out.

Other quotes:

"Summer romances begin for all kinds of reasons, but when all is said and done, they have one thing in common. They're shooting stars, a spectacular moment of light in the heavens, fleeting glimpse of eternity, and in a flash they're gone"

"They didn't agree on much, infacet they rarely agreed on everything. The fought all the time, and they challenged each other everday, but despite their differences. They had one important thing in common they were crazy about each other"

"This is not about keeping your promise, and it's not about following your heart- it's about security"

Confused? Watch the film!

Happy Valentine's Day! xx

With Valentine's day just around the corner I suddenly feel very alone in a world where romance surrounds and intoxicates almost every aspect of my life. I am naturally a very sensitive and romantic person and to feel almost unwanted is not exactly a fun feeling. Sometimes I find myself sitting at home feeling awful and wishing I could have someone to hold me close and tell me everything was going to be OK. And I would believe them. I would love them so deeply and tenderly that I would believe everything they said whereas with others I can just see right through their attempts at reassurance and comfort. No matter how hard they try to convince me to pay attention to this or not do that I would not be listening. I would be in my own world dreaming pathetically of who could persuade me into such things.

Sitting down in chemistry I smile at the boy next to me, we will call him H C, who offers me a sweet and when his friend asks for one he says no, which makes me laugh. Obviously he has come to the realisation that any arguments from these two boys on my chemistry table send me into fits of giggles at times. They rip each others jotter and scribble rude words on the other ones folders which is obviously very immature but it does make me laugh so hard. So, H C asks me about my day and tells me about how his class threw snow balls off the first years in gym which makes me laugh even harder. My stomach is starting to hurt at this point and I manage to contain myself enough to write the notes and keep my dignity, but only just. After class my friend asks me about the lesson and I told her about the H C's sweet giving and our conversations. She gives me a look I have seen many times before and she says one word.

'Lust'

What has that got to do with anything?!?

Essential Hats

Everyone has been giving me lots of feedback about my growing obsession with hats. Hats are utterly fabulous this season as they keep you so cosy and they are extremely fashionable. They come in all different price ranges. New Look do their beanies for a fiver, there are berets at Primark for £3 and H+M do some cute ones but the cheap ones are mainly for the small headed.

Going up the price range a little we come to Topshop and M+S. This amazing grey one from Topshop is £8 which is pretty good value. I love the more grungy look, it is very Laura of X Factor. Please note that this is not the actual Topshop one as you can't copy photos from their website but this one is similar enough.

This gorgeous M+S one is £12 but they do some cheaper ones that aren't so...big!

And finally, who could forget the notoriously expensive Accessorize hats, all near £15.

They are just beautiful though...

Elsewhere... I am not getting the usual kick out of chemistry these days as my current heart throb, M H, who is oblivious to my feelings for him has rolled his sleeves back down to his wrists due to the freezing classrooms. He has amazing forearms and I can't stop looking at them but now that they are covered I can only look at C R's not very attractive collection of facial fluff. M H probably thinks I'm a freak but at least he has a nice face.
