Workplace

Sorry about that moment of panic. Trigonometry can wait as I have the rest of the day to do that and my English talk is practically done. This is me studying, or so my parents think...?

English stuff, my teacher's and my name have been covered.

My Office man shoes, yeah I like calling them that!, and H+M jeans.

Me by my bedroom window. The view outside is nothing interesting or special during the day as I live in the middle of a city but the skyline is breath talking at sunrise and sunset.



Guess I should get back to Trig now...

All of a Sudden

Over the past few days I have realised just how much time I spend eating, blogging and spending money on things I don't really need so I am going to try and spend more time doing homework and working towards my upcoming exams. But everyone deserves a break so here are some pictures I have rounded up over the past week or so.

Saturdays outfit. Topshop tee; Primark skirt; H&M skirt; Traidcraft necklace.

I'm not a big wearer of jewellery but I normally wear this sort of stuff. Traidcraft necklace; New Look (Chanel style) hairband; Bracelets from Xmas cracker.

One of my friends took this picture of me at my drama class. I look rather awful as my eyebrows are lighter than my hair but I love the penguin so much I just had to show you!

Yet another program on my schedule... Did anyone see the new series of 90210 on E4 last night (Brits)? I only saw about twenty minutes. Does it get any bitchier because that's the whole reason I watched it! And who is watching Gok Wan's Too Fat, Too Young tonight (Brits again?). I think it will be very deep and meaningful as he will be talking to teenagers who are obese. As a young boy, Gok Wan was bullied for being fat, gay and Chinese all at the same time so we will maybe see a new side to Gok tonight.

Flash

I tagged myself =S after reading the Minx's latest post she said anyone could give it a go, so I obviously went for it!

The Rules

1. Go to the 4th folder in your computer where you store your pictures.

2. Pick the 4th picture in that folder.

3. Explain the picture.

4. Tag 4 people to do the same!

Yeah, that's my cat called Ruby. She is 5 and enjoys eating, sleeping by my radiator and catching worms in the garden and leaving them where I am going to stand in the morning with bare feet. Not nice! I love her really though. Her eyes look kind of freaky because of the flash but I think the whole tongue thing is cute. She never licks me.

Do it if you fancy, it's kind of cute!

Strawberry Fields

I have been tagged by the lovely Petra. and I need to write some random stuff about my self so...

• I play La Crosse and I am not very good at it. Me and my friends have a lot of Wild Child moments while playing! Yeah, the guys in the opposing team are suddenly rather distracted once we have done the dance =)


• I play the keyboard and oboe, which is described by my band as 'a duck on crack being strangled'. I feel so loved. Yeah, I am very musical.


• The only music I listen to is rock, classical and stuff from the ballet. I hate all dance music and believe it should be banned for the good of mankind.


• One of my longest running obsessions is collecting posh shopping bags. In my collection right now I have a small All Saints, huge Abercrombie and Fitch (with the eight pack on it...) and a dinky Calvin Klein undies.


• I am so guy obsessed its unhealthy. The boys I most love are Milo Ventimiglia from Heroes, Christian Bale who is batman and Robert Pattinson of Twilight. Can you resist?
  

I am going to tag:

Demi

Nat

The Seeker

Miriam

I think I should tell you now that I have got over my Chemistry Crush, even though I will be going camping with him in May. I have moved onto another boy who my friends like to, call 'Tuba boy'. 'Tuba boy' is tall, blond with soft features and a very high 'I look sexy in a shirt and tie, but I don't know it' factor. He plays Tetris on his phone when he should be socialising. My first response to this was 'Does he have a life?' and my friend returned it with, 'You can give him one'. The only problem is that he will most certainly be younger than me by at least a year, I am guessing. But even J S thinks he is hot. She never says that about boys, so he could be the one...

Love it?

Little Brown Bags

I have recently been very envious of those who own brown leather satchels. Miriam. and Petra. were showing off theirs while I sat and read enviously at their very desirable accessory. So I was over the moon to discover a brown satchel in Peacocks the other day for a tenner. I was so pleased and utterly over the moon!

I am getting quite into buying bags cheap. I have an uncountable amount of bags from Primark and I have this other bag from Peacocks which was also £10. I have used it so much.

I need to be careful with these bags though as they do not have much structure and if you don't have enough stuff in them thy just flop about. They do continue on the the slouchy trend I guess though!

Here is my outfit that I was wearing at my Gran's party while I was writing my last post. I bought the top in Pisa and I was disappointed with it as soon as I tried it on for the first time. It was too long to be a top, too short to be a dress and had too much material to be a tunic that I enjoyed wearing. But I tried it on with my beloved Primark skirt and voila! I fancied trying it with braces or would that be too much?

Zara tunic, H&M cardigan, Primark skirt, M+S tights, Bracelets stolen off mum who got one from a raffle and the other from a cracker on Xmas day!

As usual, sorry about the extremely bad quality of photos. My camera seriously sucks.

Thank you for your very comforting words from the last comment! Relatives can be so annoying so thank you for letting me have a good moan!

Final Act.

I went to H I's house yesterday. Everyone hid from my camera and then we ate home made yule log.

My camera was in a weird mood and wouldn't take a picture of my whole outfit so i did it in two parts.

T shirt: New Look

Vest (underneath): George at Asda

Skirt: Primark

Tights: Primark

Socks: River Island

Just to show how festive I am

I got doodling last night and produced this so I thought I would just show you!

Well, this is my last post of 2008. Thank you so much for the last two moths of inspiration and feedback you have given me. Enjoy your holidays and come back well rested and fed! I hope to hear from you in the New Year, 2009 people! Love you all so much xxx

Trust Me...

That is why everyone seems to love me when I get the straighteners out I guess.

Christmas Countdown

5 days to go. I got J S's secret Santa present. I gave her a peace dove necklace from Topshop and little flower clips from Miss Selfridge. Both were £5 and she loves them!

Reviews

If you haven't seen Twilight yet (I have!) let me tell you that it is absolutely amazing. Possibly one of the greatest thing I have ever seen. It is such a good adaption and wow! Robert Pattinson is so hot. if you have read the book, the movie will have you in fits at times. My group were adding in a lot of 'oooooo's, hysterical laughs and miming of the words. A definite must see! I shall say no more but I will leave you with the incredible soundtrack. Happy Xmas shopping!

Muse — Supermassive Black Hole
Paramore — Decode
The Black Ghosts — Full Moon

Vanity Fair

Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously.... Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.

Pride and Prejudice

Jane Austen

Over the recent weeks I have noticed the amount of time I am spending taking pictures of myself. My own self esteem seems to be rising but so is my own personal vanity. Perhaps it's my determination of getting noticed by the boy I sit next to in chemistry or maybe I am just naturally vain. Is that a bad thing? As usual, sorry about how crap these photos are.

Pj Party For One

I wasn't feeling much of an urge to go to sleep the other night so I stayed up for god knows how long taking taking photos of me with my new straight hair. I have had so many compliments about it but really, I am more of a curly person at heart.

TV/ Movie Update

Congratulations to Alexandra Burke who won the X Factor last night! I voted for her so many times and I love her song 'Hallelujah' which was originally by Rufus Wainwright and was in the first Shrek movie. I going to buy the CD on Friday when I am going to be seeing Twilight. I can't wait as we are going to be seeing it one the first day it's out and that will give me something to look forward to while I sit in the oh so dull end of term Christmas service. Snooze.

Is it just me, or does Kristen Stewart, who plays Bella, bug you. And not just because she gets to kiss Robert Pattinson?
