 today i went to see harry potter and the half blood prince for the second time. wooooohooooo. rupert grint is adorable. i would really like to see the first half of the deathly hallows, and well then the second straight after. i wish i was capable of creating something like harry potter. but alas i am not. i just have a half talent of artish stuff. i wish i had the money for more polariod film, along with a digital slr and a good film camera.

i keep changing my mind on what i want to do in life. like i said before a degree is coming more and more appealing. but in what? i'd love to do illustration, but am i good enough? and of course like everybody else in the entire world who is my age i would like to study photography. i reckon i'd be good at it, but with everyone else trying to succeed in the field i'm likely to fail. wish i could go back to being five years old in the sand pit at nursery.

my evening started out with the continuing of the reading of harry potter and the deathly hallows. i just can't get ENOUGH. three and a half hours of reading later i took a brake to check ye ole facebook and twitter and such. i commenced conversation with the harries of ian, he was just about to start watching the dark knight (i have spelt that wrong four times today, i blame the dyslexia) and he then mentioned to me that he had chocolate cake, i wanted some, so after some more words where typed, i headed of to ians for the spontaneous session of film and cake. yum. we plan to have more spontaneous film 'night's, being past twelve/one as A. i live like one minute away from him, and B. it was fun.

i got the greatest gift from helen and harriet on friday, ron, hermoine and harry figurines! (as seen above) they are now protecting my dvds with patronus charms,along with the handful of dinosaurs and the gorilla helen got me! 

i seem to be clicking a lot lately, i'm an old lady.

that's all for now, i'm tired.

i like layout paper. so i've decided to apply for an illustration degree, which will be starting from september 2010, if i get a place in once of the universities i apply to then it will mean i was meant to do this, however if i do not get  place i won't let it affect me, as it was simply not meant to be.

between now and march i shall try and complete several sketchbooks full of my illustrations, so that if i get an interview i can show that i am passionate about the subject and do work in my on time. plus then i will actually have illustration work in my portfolio instead of just surface pattern. if only i had realised earlier on in my foundation course that this is what i most enjoyed.

so i've decided to change my blog a bit, i will no longer be having song lyrics as titles to my blogs (i've removed them from this months posts) and i will be uploading regular photographs (not ones from google images!) or even scans of my art work. i do plan to be more creative. i was inspired bysophiedavidson and harrietdoveton. just because i'm not doing a degree anymore doesn't mean i should stop doing arty things. i LOVE being arty. 

i decorated some letter's i've sent recently, well the envelopes anyway.




saw harry potter today. i love harry potter. and i won't lie i was slightly disappointed by the film, they left out parts SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT like dumbledore'sfuneral. however i must say i was very surprised by tom felton's acting, top notch! i didn't realise how much of the story i had forgotten, so i've taken to re-reading harry potter and the deathly hallows.


i'm getting used to my 'cut by a four year old' fringe, well i like it with my new head band. my hair is getting to a length that i am happy with. i just need to get it thinned really. when it's not straightened or curly it goes so THICK. yes. 

i have yoga in like an hour and a half. i love yoga. the good thing is about my new fringe is that it won't get in my eyes during yoga, aha. 

christina is still unsure on weather she is coming reading or not. i hope she comes, it wouldn't be reading without her! camping with ian and everything will be nice too, seeing as we couldn't do that last year. i wonder if the 'you there' guy will be there?

i blog to much.


so basically my side fringe now looks like it has been cut by a four year old. never again will i attempt to save myself a trip to the hairdressers. all i wanted to do was cut like under two centimetres off? it went wrong, so i kept cutting. idiot.

me + scissors + my hair = BAD IDEA

things are going well, the weather isn't to bad for what it could be. i mean we do live in the uk, so the little sun we get, is fine by me. i love the fact that i keep running into ian whenever i go to town these days. it's good seeing him! it's strange to think that before i hardly saw him, even though he lives like a minute away?

placebo are playing the itunes festival tomorrow and i want to go so bad. it's likely that i'll end up in london, just hoping they'll take pity on me and let me in.

i'm happy with how our communication is going, and i hope it stays like this, if not better.

i'm getting quite lazy with my posts, i should sort myself out. although i do love photographs.

i've added new things to three of my walls, gig tickets on one, polaroids on another, and uni work on the last. i finally remembered to by blue tack! my memory is in need for some major improvement.

i am currently listening to jack penate's new(ish) album and wondering who stole my box of special k. i do not appreciate the stealing of my cereal. luckily i have another box in the cupboard, but still. 

i have a whole pile of books to read and a whole pile of films to watch. i've started three books in total so far. i really should finish 'on the road' before i read anything else, but i'd quite like to see what follows in 'one day'. shortly i shall watch memoirs of a geisha, i watched it like 3 years ago and thought it was lovely. but i can't for the life of me remember what happens. however, i still really want to continue reading 'one day', perhaps i'll leave the film for tomorrow, and read tonight instead.

I received a letter today.

recent happenings:



blur at hyde park (wallis)



the roxy


nandos with the best friend.




i'm frustrated with myself for letting this bother me. i try so hard to please everyone, that i often forget about myself. so recently i've been doing a few things for myself, but this apparently isn't meant to be.

today at yoga i almost did the bridge! i just need to focus on lifting my head of the mat now. i'm slowly getting better. harriet gave me this flower, which then got squished in my bag when i ran into christina on her way to walk bo. i took a detour and went with her. i always seem to wear my flip flops when it rains, or has been. walking through the wet grass felt nice in a way.

that flower in the photo is the remainder of the flower harriet gave me, it needs water. that's my favourite scarf right there. best five pounds i've spent from H&M.

i need a new job, and i need it now please. i just wanna make a move with the whole travel area thing. i applied to another job today, so here's hoping! i need to get out of wallis, i do not want to be there next year.

unlock the door, i forgot my key.

after something is said you can't take it back. i've learnt this on a few occasions recently. i just have to wait for the the possible consequences. plans change, things happen, or don't happen. things happen for a reason, and if things are meant to be they'll find a way of being. at least this is what i think.

i've eaten stupid amounts of watermelon over the past few days, and i love it. it's the one fruit where i could eat it all the time. reading festival = lot's of watermelon for ema = a very very very happy ema.

went to itunes festival today, passion pit were lovely, although i didn't enjoy the fear of having lost natalie and a phone battery about to die on me. however all worked out fine and we got home safe. 

i walked home from hillingdon station whilst listening to transatlaticism. it started raining in the last three minutes of the song, i like walking in the rain.

raise it up

it's half one, its boiling hot, and i've decided to tidy my room. god i'm clever. not.
not only this i want to add stuff to my walls... AND i found that one postcard from my uni work is missing. i quite liked that one, it's such a shame. oh and i don't have enough blue tack for this mission.

wish me luck.

i'm not like you, i get comfortable.



yoga today, yoga yesterday. i really like yoga. i feel so relaxed and peaceful after a session. as cliché as it sounds it's the truth. harriet's mum says i'm really progressing so that's good to hear. i like having something i like doing that's good for me, well i liked it when i started running, but lets face it... I CAN NOT RUN. yoga is different. yoga is fun.

yesterday was film night at the doveton's, they set up they're huge tv (as you can see in the above photo) up in the garden with chairs and a bench and a mattress. it was an all girl movie night, oh and sam was there. we watched the sisterhood of the traveling pants 1&2. alexas bedel is in both so even if the films weren't good, they still would be if you asked me. it got dark so we lit candles, for light and to keep the mosquitos from biting us. i have 7 bites in total.....

i've gone photo crazy with my blogs recently, mainly because i want to show you photos of people or events than have happened! alalala i shall try and limit the photos to my best. but no promises!

it's natalie's birthday today, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, we popped to windsor and looked around, went back to nat's had a bbg and played rock band on wii. i say rock band i really mean the drums, as we needed more controllers for the others. i played 'feel the pain' by dinosaur jr. on the drums. fuck me it was hard, so 69% wasn't too shabby for someone who sucks at drums. also, i love LEMURIA.
