If You're Feeling Sinister

“You are too young to put all of your hopes in just one envelope.”

Now the real question is, fringe or just a trim?

Is This It

I'm going to paint my nails pink and put mental power into making my mouth ulcer better.
It's been 4 days, surely it should have gone by now? Maybe it's a secret plea for me to use up the bonjela at last! It's definitely a cupboard product - you know the ones, you buy them thinking they'll be really useful and then unless your feeling unusually proactive and adventurous OR actually in need of that particular aliment (Speaking for both food and medicine at this point), then it never gets used. Most likely for years on end. Little bit ew?
Completely love that Soph and I somehow both know the same dance you do to those particular tunes - it's a bit of a head wobble and hip jiggle. Definitely not suitable for a nightout but perfectly comical for a night in with the girls! It goes back to a theory that Sophie and Heather came up with a couple of years ago - all girls have inbuilt reactions. We all know when to finish an 'Ooh' or a deafening scream. We are so talented.
I brownie promise that I would give up Christmas presents (Even cards!) for life, if somehow I wake up tomorrow and there's an email telling me my UCAS has all been sorted for me and I don't have to worry about any of it. Also, if I fancy I don't have to go into work. Also, here are some sleeping tablets that genuinely work. OH AND ALSO G'WAN HAVE ANOTHER WEEK OF HALF TERM TO RESTORE A SMILE. Totally having a giggle on this one!
Time to face the music, well actually my hairdresser, on Thursday. Really hoping that I won't get the old lecture of not coming sooner.

After much deliberation (All of 3 months), I want to be that little girl lost in the moment again.

White Ladder

So I'm not using my time to do something super academic and productive (i.e. personal statement), but I am using it to do something sweet, retro and creative. I'm making a mixtape for a very dear friend of mine. I've gone down the sleepy/acoustic and piano piece route. It's putting me to sleep just fitting it all together! I am actually thinking they would make a really cute Christmas present. Mmm, oh delightful. (Also, I am very, very appalled that I am thinking about Christmas presents already, I am aware of this sad fact haha.)

Generally my life consists of college, college work, more college, working at the weekends, more college. We're getting ipads instore at work! I'm skeptical that they 'won't break' but it is quite exciting all the same. Looking forward to the Scarefest at Alton Towers with the girlies, should be full of good memories in the making! Did I mention that one of my close friends interviewed the Prime Minister (Boss) and the Deputy Prime (Tea maker and general PA to said Boss) minister today? How wonderful and insane is that. What a small world.

Oh how darling, I think I'm done!

Lost Where I Belong

Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Newcastle, Strathclyde; you were all a nice dream.

Now in my books no one 'plans' to disappear, but right now, I'd very much like to. Do some kind of marathon thing - not an actual marathon, I would die trying to run it. I haven't been to the gym for near, 2 months, I am HORRENDOUSLY unfit. But a marathon-sleep ("Sleepathon" hahahaha) would be fantastic right about now.

Isn't it a little bit of a piggle when you buy one of your current favourite tracks off iTunes (fight the piracy!) and it's a diff version from the one you've spent the past two months listening to, on youtube?

Ill Behaviour

Current favourite messy song: Be Faithful by Fatman Scoop. Old school always wins. Although I think Louder by Katy B might be soon to follow. More (good) dubstep, I say!

Most nervous/exciting/intimate/clumsy/exhilarating/hot-literally/comfortable*, evening last night.
* - delete where appropriate. Mmmmm.

It seriously feels like a Sunday.

Loving to be lost in a beat.

How We Operate

You're never alone in being alone but you will feel, well, alone. The irony of a crowded planet. The flaw in this "Grand" design. Ha. Good luck in the great scheme of everything. Stare into space, find your own denial, wait - "Clarity". The cathartic attitude.

I think my problem was never tearing the 'bad day' pages out of my diary. Maybe that is one solution to take up. I miss my thermos in the morning. Being hollow is looking like a reality again. I want to see things from someone else's way. Definitely why I stopped drinking months ago. Playing board games will never be the same, statistics taught me how to cheat. Still haven't got that lipstick. Try and see things my way.

"Lovely." Get to know me. "Scary and damaged." When does the coin flip back to the other side of reality?



On second thoughts, this would be me editing the blog having posted this already lalala, I'll wait to see your smile. I really don't know what to feel till then.

The Five Ghosts

One of my favourite things to use youtube for is finding a good remix. This isn't the easiest thing in the world as you've got a lot to go through these days to find something you can really connect with. Today was my lucky day! I've heard of LightsOverLA before, my preferred track being the Two Door Cinema Club - What You Know remix.
However, until now I have to confess I'd never really noticed the talent behind the remixes. The one I'm recommending to you today is the LightsOverLA, Stars - Dead Hearts remix. They had lights inside their eyes.
Summing something up to a quick, monosyllabic review is not something I'm very good at, but for this; "Hauntingly beautiful", is going to be my answer. Your next 4:11mins will definitely not be a waste.
