long time no speak.

So, I haven't blogged in 4 weeks. Sorry! 
I've been busy with the last few weeks of University before Christmas along with working and Christmas shopping, so everything has been a bit hectic! 

I finished Uni for Christmas on Friday after leaving 2 lab reports for the night before they were due in and having to pull an all nighter to get them done! (whoops!) 

Buuutttttt, I'm now back at home for a month to enjoy Christmas with my family :).

A song that I've been really enjoying lately is Naughty Boy ft. Emeli Sande - Wonder, I love the start with the drums and how the words are a bit repetitive so it becomes really catchy. 

I just think the song has a really good sound! :) 


Enjoy! 
(and I promise to blog again soon!)

over 100 viewers from the US.

So, as you can guess from my title I've had over 100 viewers from the U.S.

Please comment saying what you think and even if you're too shy to give feedback just say where you're from (as in what state you're from) and/or where you found my blog or if you're a first time viewer or have returned :).

I'm really intrigued to know!

What I Wore.

My Spotify isn't being my friend at the moment so I'm struggling to search for any new artists and blog about it, so I'm trying to fill the time with other posts and this time I'm going to post about an outfit I've worn. It isn't actually what I wore today because today I'm dressed like a slob but it's what I wore on Thursday when I had work and when I went to see twilight :).



As you can see they aren't amazing photos.
I wore a black baroque style baggy top, tucked into a purple skater skirt, with a leather jacket, just plain black tights, 2 scarfs and a necklace :).

because you can't see the top much I've uploaded a separate picture of it. It's George from Asda and was £10 (which I'm quite impressed by), the skirt was only £7 from Primark, the leather jacket was £30 from New Look last winter and in these photos I'm wearing 2 scarfs - the floral one from Dorothy Perkins 2 years ago and the other (knitted and hooded) one from Topshop 3 years ago.
With this outfit I wore my studded shoes with gold studs from Internacionalé even though you cant see them :) and I did matching nails.


these were my nails and I have purple nail varnish on all of my nails and gold on my ring finger and then I put purple crackle nail varnish on every finger. (all of the nail varnishes used were Barry M).

buyers guilt.

Hey! :)
So, in my last post I was about to go to work before going to watch the new Twilight film. I have to admit, I was disappointed :(! The first half of the film was just over the top with constant special effects and not even good ones (there's only so many times you can watch some people running and jumping), the second half was better than the first half because they had a sneaky twist that I WAS NOT expecting!
Personally, I think they'd have been better doing the whole of Breaking Dawn as one film and following the plot of the book more.

Moving on...
This week I've had a bit of buyers guilt because I've realised I own 5 pairs of studded shoes - this would be more acceptable is 3 pairs of them weren't black!
To justify this a little bit I have to admit one of the black pairs are practically falling apart but I can not bare to throw them away and the other black pairs were an attempt to make myself throw the original studded pumps away BUT I JUST CAN'T DO IT!
and the glittery ones are totally unnecessary and impractical but beautiful :).
the ones on the top right are the old ones (its obvious so I don't know why I'm pointing out) and the bottom left ones were an attempt to replace them but they have more studs and just aren't the same.

(L-R starting on the top row) SCHUTZ bought from TK Maxx, Internacionale, Topshop (no longer on sale), Topshop (the new versions of the previous ones), Bershka.

Oh!  To add another thing to my last post about Uuniversity stress I went to my 2nd 9am lecture of the semester today (I have 2 a week) and it was pointless. Both of the ones I've actually dragged myself out of bed to attend I've learnt nothing in! HOW RIDICULOUS!
and to add to this annoyance I waited around in campus for an hour (which felt like 3 hours!) for another lecture which I have the same lecturer for 2 hours straight and she didn't turn up! (how rude!) and because I've had such a messy day I can't focus on Uni work tonight :(
So, I'm still lagging in motivation! HEEEEELP.

Any Advice?! What gets you motivated?

P.S. feedback and comments are welcome!
I'll always make sure I reply :)!

Breaking dawn and dawn of the dead?

Hey (:

So, I won't be blogging later on because I'm going to see the midnight showing of  Breaking Dawn Part Two, the last part of the Twilight Saga!
I can't deny that I'm stupidly excited to go and see it after reading all of the books and going to see all of the other films I HAVE to see it!
(and I have to admit the trailer looks amazing, although taking quite a different story line from the book which is slightly disappointing).


This week has been a bit of a wake up call for me, before now I've been being quite lazy and choosing to either stay in bed or go out and socialise rather than go to my University lectures but this week it's sort of dawned on me that exams on coming quicker than I expected and I only have 4 more weeks of the semester left before Christmas is here (EEK!) and I'm 100% sure that the Christmas break will go 100 times quicker than the semester has.
So, now I'm in a bit of a fluster and trying to desperately catch up on work so I'm not on the verge of a mental breakdown over Christmas (I probably will still be on the verge of a mental breakdown but it's always worth hoping :)!)
To add to the stress of trying to catch up on work I also have 2 presentations to do and 3 lab reports (Booooo :(!) but I'm quite looking forward to researching Programmed Cell Death for my Human Biology presentation and to finishing my own PCR to write my Lab Report on! woohoo!

I'm sure there's loads of people who feel the same, In fact - I know there is because I've spoke to a few people I live with and they all feel the same.

But over the Christmas there's one thing we all need to remember:


ENJOY!
