ladies at lunch

For some reason I'm always tempted to start posts with 'hey guys!' and have to stop myself,
(1) because in my head I hear the goonies 'hey you guys!!' and
(2) because I don't know who's actually reading my blog and whether females around the world really appreciate being called 'guys'.
Is that over thinking things too much? Probably.

So, I didn't mention this in my post(s) yesterday but I rushed the day because I had a deadline today (and I always leave everything until the last minute) but I'd already committed to spending today with my mum while she's off work for half term (it's alright for some, eh?) and this didn't dawn on me until about 7am on monday morning. So, I missed two lectures to complete the work for my deadline and handed it in before my psychology lab class which I then finished early meaning I got to go home for the night:).

I won't bore you with all the boring details, but essentially today I've spent the whole day out. I went into town with my mum this morning and didn't come home until 6 and then I quickly got ready to go for a birthday meal. (Yes, that does mean I've had 2 meals out in one day!)
being a student and all I'm pretty skint (completely skint) and managed to go the whole day spending only £17! From this I got a jumper, a blouse, a peplum top, a roll neck dress and some jeans :). I also saw about 2 million pairs of shoes I want if anyone wants to treat me?
I'll post pictures on ASAP.

Enjoy! x

ps. I'd like to brag about how amazing my best friend is and congratulate him on his results for his first semester exams at uni! Not only has he managed to bag himself a scholarship he also got 2.1's in all of his exams! Clever clogs. x

Whoops

I forgot two valentines themed nail art photos. I've decided to post again to show them because otherwise it would've been a waste of energy finding them and they're quite good designs so I don't want you all to miss out :).

I like these ones because of the 3d hearts and the use of the newspaper method as well to give some variety.

I think the idea of using cupid for the theme rather than love hearts was also clever and unique.

Enjoy xxx

ps. I don't take any credit for the nail art or designs in this post and the previous post. I'd post the source of the designs but I can find the links anymore, but I found most of them on tumblr :) xx

Lazy weekend

The title of the post isn't entirely accurate but its the closest I could get to describing why I haven't blogged this weekend. I started a post on friday but got delayed (I decided to go into town and get the ingredients to do some baking) which was lovely and relaxing and was a good start to the weekend until later on when I started to feel a bit ill and my head was all fuzzy (boohoo) and when I went to uni to pick my stuff up for the weekend and I was a bit of a party pooper because someone had cling filmed the girl nextdoors door knob to the stair case which completely blocked off the path to my door. I just wasn't in the mood so I ripped it, was I just being a cow or were my actions sort of acceptable? I do feel a but guilty.

Anyway, because I'm still having issues on the camera cable front I decided to take get a collection of photos of nail art that I like for you to keep you entertained

So, the first lot I found were some valentines themed nail (considering last week was valentine's day). My personal favourites are the two on the right (the two sets of tips) and the middle ones (the poor quality photo) are my attempts at some valentines themed nails. What do you think?

These are just some nails that I generally like, I've done the ones on the top right before - it's really easy (as long as you've got some caviar beads). I really like the top left ones which help to promote the british heart foundation - I think everyone would like to do their bit to help promote charity and this is a really easy way to do it.

This last set are my favorite animal themed nails. My favourite are most definitely the fox ones (they're soo cute :')) but I like the simplicity of the bird ones too.

Which are you favourite?


Enjoy xx

committed.

I've actually kept my word from yesterday and blogged two days in a row! (Go me). I've also taken some outfit photos today but I then realised I've lost my camera lead (when I say 'lost' I actually mean my sister lost hers, borrowed mine and has moved to norfolk before giving it back - it's the last time I do her a favour!) so the photos will have to wait until a later date.

It hasn't gone unnoticed that today is Valentines day (or expensive confidence boost (or not for singletons) day as I view it. This year I've decided to boycott it because I'm quite poor at the moment and I just think it's a pile of shit. Not surprisingly, my partner was quite happy with this especially considering I offered to make him home made lasanga for tea tomorrow if he agreed to the idea. 

What men will do for food, eh?

Speak soon! x

so, I didn't keep my promise..

But I've finally got blogger working on my phone (ish - it's sooo delayed I'm typing it keeps missing out half of every word) so HOPEFULLY I can start keeping the promise. fingers crossed!

Anyway, the last few times I blogged it was near Christmas and exam period and life was a bit hectic but as we all know Christmas is over now (mine was lovely) and I had my exam results back yesterday and I passed everything! Yay! I got the equivalent of two 2:1's in psychology and two 2:2's in biology. :)

I had my first semester 2 exam today so I couldn't really treat myself yesterday for my results so I have today and it's the saddest treat EVER - I've put my pyjamas on at half past 7, watched the soaps under my duvet and had a curry (yum).

speak soon! x
