POUND LAND...

I have fallen in love. Whilst shopping for shampoo in pound land (yes I am THAT skint) and whilst mincing about I saw this book... 'Diary of a Manhattan call girl' by Tracy Quan. Now I always wanted to get into the TV series 'secret diary's of a call girl' you know the one with Billie Piper in it, but I never did, always on my to-do-list but like most things it never got done... sooooo when I saw this bad boy for only £1 I was like YES. 

 (Please excuse my nails in this! I promise they are being manicured tomorrow!)

I mean what could I loose, and I was NOT let down, I started this morning and I’m already on page 100 and I really don't want to put it down! I’ve definitely found a good read for all my long train journeys coming up in the next 4 weeks! (If I don’t read it all tonight!) Now I must admit, this book is totally not made for the faint hearted (there is mentions of a penis about 7 times in the first paragraph) but still it's one of those amazing guilty reads you can absolutely loose yourself in. I am so proud of my pound land guilty pleasure! :)

INTERN...

sorry its been so long blog, i've been mucho busy!

so a couple of weeks ago i went into overdrive applying for internships and work placements galore... and would you believe my luck KARL PLEWKA has offered me an internship! i could not be more excited! i'm currently waiting for THE call to tell me when its all gonna go down but i am super excited! i am going to be spending the next few days crimping, buying and preening myself into PERFECTION. i am so excited at the thought of being a stylists aid, phoning designer companies, finding samples, meeting industry big heads. PINCH ME THIS CANT BE REAL! he is the man as far as i'm concered! 

this is some of his amazing work below...

i'm off to pick out all the outfits i'll be sporting whilst i work for him!

wish me luck guys

oh and in other news...

i nearly forgot on wednesday night a club in southampton called Audio do a night called wax, its amazing, so insane, dub step and shacking to be seen everywhere! well this Wednesday it was the turn of Borgore... HE IS AMAZING... if you've not heard of him, youtube him now. you will never look back. the music is a bit filthy and really grimey and tbh some times down right offensive but i'm totally in love with him! 

Personal fav of mine of his work.

oh yeah... AND I MET HIM

PLEASE EXCUSE MY GROSS AND SWEATY STATE.

relax don't do it, when you wanna go to it...

its a hard life being a student! handed my work in this week so i am officially work free (well until Tuesday when they give us semester twos work!) so i thought why not push the boat out and go out, so with out even trying i have managed to go out 3 times this week, been a wee bit sloshed 3 times this week and eaten my own weight in take out 3 times this week. (unfortunatly this does mean jogging has been put on hold) so i decided after work today to just relax! i've lit my insents, put on my cushtyest pj's and placed candles around my room to make it all atmosphic and stuff :) 

i am a MASSIVE fan of thermals but they always come in such boring colours, so when i got these floral grey ones for Xmas i was totally over the moon! living in a student house my best friend has become the thermal under garment for sure!

jogging...

i am currently trying to slim down and tone up the tree trunks i call legs. i decided jogging seemed like the best idea (ignore the fact i smoke 1,000000000 a day for a second) i went and got the outfit, the pink water bottle, the trainers, the lot... so far i've been twice (jogging a combined total of 4.4miles) and my legs have now given up on me. the ache in my bones is a killer! my gait is worse than John Waynes at this point! and i look less than delious in the outfit but hey! fingers crossed my pins are soon perfect (in time for summer i hope!)

effort...

so today was one of the rare days it seems i decided to make an effort with my apperance (unfortunatly uni seems to have sucked the life out of my fashion sense - N.T.S leggings and a t-shirt is not suitable ALLDAY EVERYDAY)

 (top primark, bow fabric land, jeggings American apparel)

i actually put make up on and everything!!

i'm really enjoying the max factor bronzer atm it really gives deffinition to my cheek bones and makes me look healthy in these pale winter months, i don't care who says bronzers only for summer... ITS NOT!

happy days :)

the lunch of kings.

i am offically a domestic goddess! this is my pasta made with home made tomato, roasted garlic and mushroom sauce... all topped off with a lush cup of new forest double hazelnut coffee made in my cafeteria :) life is good...

back to the essay... 1,392 words to go :) 

i miss summer...

today i am meant to be writing an essay on fashion photography in the 21st century so i will be spending much of today tucked up in bed with my head buried in an unrealisically large book...

 however my mind keeps drifting back to summer (mostly because i can see a bit of cheeky sun trying to peek though my curtain) i miss the summer, not having any work to do, getting up when i like, achieving a sunkissed tan, day trips to bournmouth, ice cream, flashing a bit of skin, my ray bans and of course the amazing moment i met my boyfriend. July 24th. i can't wait to spend summer 2011 with him and make more memories :)

slush puppy...

So it's been amazing having the past like 3/4 weeks off uni... not getting up till stupid o'clock not going to bed until ridiculous o'clock. Perfect.

Except now I’ve come back to uni, my mind has gone to slush. Pure slush. I can't remember where I’m meant to be, when I’m meant to be there and should I attach the bells and whistles?!

over all its left me craving for the 'swing of things' to return me to safety and normality. that’s not asking for much is it?
