Day 2.
My favourite film. The best ones have to be the ones that make you cry such as The Notebook, The Time Travellers Wife etc. I’m going for It’s A Wonderful Life, if anything because it makes me cry from sheer happiness. I watch it every Christmas with my Mum & Sister and we’re all in floods during the final scene. (Admittedly I should have chosen the Phantom of the Opera or...
2.04 am.
why am i such an insomniac.
just sort of sat here, wrapped up in my quilt, contemplating. not in some incredibly deep way, just in general. i actually feel sort of lucky at the moment. the most important people in my life are missing, i haven’t seen rachael in two months, or millie, or emma. and i miss them all terribly, but i’m beginning to realise just how wonderful my other...

someone asked me today what makeup products i use, and well, the post would be ridiculously long so i thought i should make a blog post of it!
mostly i use benefit products, but i have a bit of chanel in there as well.
foundation wise i use chanel vitalumiere in ‘clair: £31.00
i also recommend benefit play sticks, a cream to powder foundation, i used to have it in ‘jax’ but...
Day 1.
My favourite song:
I hummed and harred over this for a while, Joni Mitchell, Billie Holiday, Johnny Cash, Michael Jackson. Ended up on Moon River - the Andy Williams version. I know originally Audrey Hepburn sang it an all, but i’m not her biggest fan. I don’t think anybody else has ever sang this song with more feeling or more perfectly. I always remember my Mum singing this around...
challenge.
bit useless at blogging on a regular basis so i’m going to this in order to try and be consistent!

shopping trip
why do you go out with good intentions, and never come home with what you planned?
topshop satchel: £50
benefit badgal lash: £15.50
benefit stay dont stray primer: £19.50
benefit coralista blusher: £23.50
& i still owe my parents a shed load of money. i think i’ve only paid back £500 of the grand i owe them. maybe less. oopsy daisy.
i love
when you have a wonderful realisation.
things can only get better. its pretty shit right now. but earlier on lewi facebooked me and i just had this beautiful feeling that, even if i lost everyone else, i know he and owen would always be there. they’re both so completely separate to anything or anybody else in my life and i know nothing could ever jeopardise our friendship. thoroughly...
Love Never Dies
I reeeeally need to stop listening to the soundtrack, my plays for Andrew Lloyd Webber on last.fm have shot up in recent weeks. It’s just such a good sequel to Phantom, i always felt that he left the story hanging. Maybe it’s just because I thought Christine made the totally wrong choice at the end, if that was even her choice at all. Anyway, Love Never Dies has an amazing storyline...
ola!
well, it’s two thirty here in albanchez, and around thirty five degrees. looovely.
so i went to the airport yesterday and got some looovely goodies for myself. (chanel no.5 as mine has run out, and also some chanel foundation and their new lipstick ‘coco rouge’. also some benefit erase paste, total of only £106. bargain!) got into almeria airport at about 18.50 their time. had a...

today
i have watched harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban and the goblet of fire. definitely a good day. poor ced just died. when ralph fiennes has a nose and isnt bald and slimey and just voldemort in general, hes so hot.
tomorrow i need to go get mummy a bunch of flowers for her birthday. i also need to pick up some other bits and bobs and pack my suitcase ready for my flight on thursday!
work work
was good today. the majority of my favourite people were working which makes a huge difference. just needed mummy wendy and aunty claire and would have been poifect. shift wise was rubbish surprisingly.. only on tills once and not even on fitting room at all. meaning my day consisted of accessorize (yuck) and monsoon door. not fun whatsoever. but i always have a nice easy ending to my day as i get...
my love
leave yourself behind.
beat inside me, leave you blind.
my love, you have found peace.
you were searching for release.
you gave it all, gave into the call.
you took a chance and you took a fall for us.
you came thoughtfully, and then faithfully.
you taught me honour, you did it for me.
today you will sleep for good.
you will wait for me, my love.
now i am strong.
you gave me all.
...
i feel
awful today.
so what am i going to do about it? im going to go for a little shopping sesh in oxford with my sister, out for lunch at the noodlebar and then go to see eclipse and drool over jacobs chest. wonderful.
ohhh
the sex education show is possibly the most hilarious thing on telly at the moment.
love love
the parents. just went to the garden centre for lunch. had some pollo pesto pasta, was so gooooood.
tried desperately to force dad to get a hot tub. he’s always wanted one but doesn’t think it would fit in the garden - when you could fit like 3 in there. sigh. ill get there one day.
went to laura ashley and got this and these for my room. going back soon to hopefully get this...
there is
nothing that i want more than to be tall and pretty and skinny.
i literally hate the body im in. im so self concious. i never have my legs out. or even my arms. i have to have a cardigan on, or have a long sleeve top / dress on. im dreading my holiday as now my cousin, and her other cousin are coming two days earlier. meaning i have to spend some of my time with them, in which there is no...

UEA
so today i had to get up at 6am to be ready to leave home by half 7. mummy & me had a three hour drive to norwich to look around UEA.
basically, the course (american and english history) looks amazing. the primary focus is on american history, and the 3rd year has to be spent abroad in one of forty universities. having great trouble deciding which id like to go to most.. berkley in...

is more or less the best thing ever invented
hola!
as my good friend, mr lewi hudson-james pointed out last night, i never use my tumblr anymore. here goes, my millionth attempt at blogging on a regular basis.
had the most wonderful evening last night with lewi and owen. who would have thought that meeting on myspace so many years ago would have lead to a friendship like ours. i never tire of our outings and i get excited the second we plan...
