Educating Rita
This play is so good…so far. I think everyone has seen the film (apart from moi). Rita really reminds me of myself and it’s just so funny, it literally makes me lol.
C'est magnifique
Few nice snaps from Paris
So Sonia really wanted crepes and since we hadn’t eaten breakfast we decided to have crepes for breakfast. But we couldn’t find any so I settled for a belgian waffle and the other two ate Pizzas.
Inside the Notre Dame. I really like the chandeliaaaaars.
Such a nice florist, so beauuuutifuls

Girl, Interrupted
I love this novel and I love this notebook. Eeeeeeek its so cool. I should write a really good novella in it….
I found myself in Wonderland
Oh Snap
I need one of these cameras. It could be their old fashioned style, the fact that they’re silver and black, nostalgia for old film negatives and real physical photos or just that they are just really really cool.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarghnyway. I will buy one of these and take really interesting photos that will be very artsy fartsy. And when people come round I’m going to make them...
Vintage Blitz
I love vintage clothes. You can always find something unique and interesting, and a lot of the fun in vintage stores is the hunt. Fashion today is alright, it’s not bad, it’s quite nice actually. But there is a much bigger chance of finding something much better in a Vintage store. Fashion from the 40’s, the 60’s even the 90’s is faaaaaaaaaarbulous. I love high...
Hello Giggles Cute Biscuits
I love cute biscuits and I love baking. I’m not that good at baking but lately my biscuits and cakes have been edible and that’s pretty amazing. However my icing skills are terrible.
See. They look like biscuits and I cut them in cute heart and butterfly shapes. Exciting!
And then when they were done they actually tasted good!
But I decided to ruin it with the icing *sigh*....
Phoebe's Handmade Cards
My friend Phoebe always makes lovely little cards for Jannat and I. They’re not crazy like mine. They’re so cute and pretty and she always has really nice new ideas.
<3 them :)
November Rain
Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)
Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’99 If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience…I will dispense this advice now. Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power...

Splattered Sequins
Standing in the foyer was Geraldine. Tall and pristine. The woman of the evening. Her sequins splattered shadows on the walls at her side and her smile shattered the pride of every other woman who stepped inside the door.
“Maria! Dear, take off that hideous necklace. Well now you just look plain.”
Geraldine’s words were elongated. The R’s were similar to the quiet roar...

I love ‘em
Death of a Carrier Pigeon
Disheartened, Lady Dee slumped on to the throne. Couldn’t it go her way for once! She felt as if her heart bled and bled everyday. Hours of sane madness, hours of quiet hysteria, hours and hours of hours. A date had been set! A date had been set! It would all go to plan! Because a date had been set. Well who can argue with that. Pure logic.
The pigeon tapped his beak on the window, so hard...
Anyone there?
I need someone to talk to.

2011
2011 was quite an eventful year, things are looking up. I’m 20 and instead of dreading the new year and wishing we could turn back time I’m quite curious about what the new year will bring. I still miss the moomins and the backstreet boys.
The rain doesn’t feel the way it used to and the sky isn’t the right shade of blue in the winter, it isn’t cold enough....

I just found out that Miss Honey (from Matilda) is…
This horrible character named Natasha in Bridget Jones’s Diary!
I wanted to be Miss Honey when I grow up…I don’t want to become Natasha!!!
So sad. Well for me anyway.
Well...
“Some people are born clever, same way some people are born beautiful. I’m not one of those people. I’m going to have to work at it, put in the effort, and if I mess it up, I’ll learn from it.”
Gah.
I have nothing to say.

Tea Time
So I got a Raspberry Sponge cake today.
Not that one obviously, thank god because I hate actual fruit in cake. Especially if its dripping down like that, eurgh.
But I really wanted a strawberry sponge cake.
Again without the actual strawberrys inside, just strawberry jam. I had this cake at Byron and well it was alright but not great.
So all this time I thought that a strawberry sponge cake...
Bonjour!

Do not eat this burger.
I nearly died after attempting to eat it! It’s a literal jungle!
I am whatever you say I am.

Drifting through the wind….wanting to start again ETC
I have a nice feeling that maybe the next few years will slow down. The last 10 years flew by and now its not so important. Apart from the media exciting the public about 2012 being the big E.N.D. But the Black Eyed Peas lied so i wouldnt trust John Cusack.
Anyway i could be talking crap, it may be the end of the world. You should...

HURRAH! The reign of my wooly converses is over!
Yes the day has come when my wooly converses could no longer bear the burden of being protectors of my feet! They have caved in at the last chance of battle with the wintry conditions of this techno city!
And i had to get new boots. I don’t know what i think of them yet but I dont care. I’m past caring what i look like!!!
These boots are made for walking and this is all they will...
Remember this?
Scary shiz
OH JOY
Yay Christmas holidays are here! I should feel free and excited and mad and gloriously happy after 12 weeks of 9ams and 2 hour journeys! But I just feel okay. Lol.
So I decided im going to look nice for my last day of term. Since the majority of my classes were this term most people would remember as i am now, so they wouldnt see any progress i may make socially and in my appearance...
hmm
I’m tired of stumbling through life. I want to do something.
