Another post of unorganized thoughts. Sensing a theme...? Anyway. Bruises. The coolest internet comic strip thingy xkcd which often makes me laugh & sometimes leaves me in awe with the creators knowledge on everything from maths & physics too uhr...photoshop? I suggest you go there now! It will make you laugh & feel smart all at the same time. Perfect. & some Addams Family Values because after watching it for the first time as part of mine & Jesus' Christina Ricci obsession, I have now watched it like 3 times. Still in love. I want my future family to be like that. Minus the killing. Note to self: goth up.

Had an art exam today as I'm sure you're enthralled to hear. 12 hours is too long to do textiles, there's nothing that takes 12 hours (or just 12 hours) so I got to leave 3 hours early, score! Completed everything I needed too so I'm just hoping my art teacher doesn't mark me down because a) he doesn't really like me & b) I finished 3 hours early. Anyway so that's art done. Now it's just physics...for a whole other month.

Dammit.

This
is one of those dresses that gets comments every time I wear it. Usually from the couple of people who have actually realised that the girls on my dress are flashing. I love that sometimes, from a distance it looks like a floral print, & it's more unexpected when you realise all their skirts are blown up.
After
whole heartedly deciding not to go last night. After painting my nails multi-pastel colours Cat wormed her way into my brain & convinced me too. We were late, but luckily so was Mr. Doherty & well...it was beautiful. Odd but charming. I wish I could've really got in there & shown my adoration rather than standing at the back with goosebumps the whole night, having flash backs to Reading. But hey, I guess that just makes me a proper grown up.

Sunny!

Back on track. Physics exam went surprisingly well, or at least ok today. Well chuffed anyway. Now just need to do some revision to the theory paper tomorrow. Then decide if I'm allowed to go & see Mr. Doherty...or not.

Anyway, I've been wearing this a lot but never put it on the blog because it's so...well...a bit boring. But it's about quality. The shirt is a cotton silk mix that is like the best fabric ever (apart from cashmere obvs) & it does have like some weird faded dye job but I stole it from my mum after she got in the Gap sale so I guess there must've been something wrong with it. Also, fills my need for a tied bottom shirt at the moment, without actually having to seek out & purchase one. I guess I could cut the arms off as well, but that would be sacrilege. But yes, this is what I wear to a physics exam. A see-thru shirt & skin tight disco pants. & I wonder why I don't fit in?

Loser?

I have just gone to college for my first of four physics practical exams, only to find that I was an hour & a half late. I'd written the times down wrong. & now I am, officially, the flakiest stupidest person on the planet. Or so it feels like. At least it was a re-take. At least it was just my money I wasted. Cried & screamed along to Be Your Own Pet all the way home. Now I've taken to my bed, with food, a laptop, a phone & an A2 physics text book to mope/get prepared for tomorrows 9am exam (I will triple check the time). Sucks I can't even go out & take out my frustrations on some sweaty people in a mosh pit.

View BERLIN VINTAGE in a larger map

Honestly, after Monday's post I intended to get throughly back into the blogging swinging things. Unfortunately the reality of 4 physics exams in 3 days followed by a 2 day art exam the following week have come crashing down on me. So here's a quick post displaying my life at the moment. The first is the map of vintage shops in Berlin I have just made for my trip there in the summer. Well looking forward to it. & how awesome is google maps? Then there's the art...potato prints!

I've been sticking dots all over my world map until I ran out of dots. It's in aid of the thing I have found to do with my life. I know! Finally! I hope you are saying if you've read this blog for a bit. You'll know I'm unfocused & unmotivated, unwanting to go to university & do a course I don't really want to having spent 3 years in college working at "degree level" anyhow. So it's pretty much a big deal. But I didn't want to tell anyone about it to curse it...me & my big mouth... So let's leave it at that. I'm very VERY excited. & now no longer feel the need to spend the next 2 months finishing my physics A Level. Uhm...not good.

Plus whilst sending images from my phone I remembered the blue bell walk I went on with my motley crue last week just outside Bristol (I want to say Portbury...behind that religious kids thing Noah's Ark). A little word in for the iPhone who takes surprisingly high quality photos. The old school one though, none of this new "I'm too good to be held" shit. Anyway, it was absolutely beautiful. They weren't fully fully out but they should be by now so if you know of a wooded area go & look for some blue bells. I reckon Britain does woods the best you know. French get parks, who gets forests?

Ok I've got worrying shakes from being hyper, doing too much in too little time, lack of sleep & abundance of chocolate from Easter. I think this signals the time to call it a day. I'm off to catch up on crappy American teen drama. Gotta love the internet.

LOVE!

Woo back to blogging after a week of scheduled posts & lounging in the sunshine. At least I have come back to a blog of lovely pictures. So here's some stuff that's been occupying my brain in terms of collage with photos from weheartit & lovely Pantone colours. Literally the best app I have ever downloaded. The first is my strange longing to combine the new pleat trend with midi skirt length & that Jil Sander show & dress which has pretty much been everywhere only to be replaced with Prada. 48 covers!? Madness. So the ideal is a coral, high waisted, odd in length, knife/accordion pleated skirt. Obviously not new due to the infamous resolution so I'll be trawling eBay/etsy/charity shops instead. Because once again I have managed that strange illusion of creating a garment in my mind that may or may not in fact exist.

The second collage is for matte red lipstick. I know, I know, red lipstick has been done to death. But there's something in me that has longed for my hair to be properly ginger again & to finally own the perfect fur coat so I can set off red lipstick perfectly. I might have to get a gangster boyfriend & take up smoking but hey...details, details. Until then I heard MAC are good for matte lipsticks that don't disappear by the time you get home, as all my other lipsticks do. Mainly because I'm a bit of a cheapskate when it comes to un-everyday make up.

Happy Easter!
