laura and i are sending each other photos. we clearly have no life. i'm sending hr photos on the update of my sandwich making, and she has so far sent me one. it is now my desktop background, look there's a printscreen to prove it. laura is lovely.

(i've been ordered to update this)

yes please.

i went to see florence and the machine on sunday. my how i adore that woman. her voice in incredible, boy does she have one great pair of lungs.

i wore my 'vintage' wallis dress, which was shortened by my mother. i loved it. i need to find more clothes like it. wallis has nothing similar in at the moment, so that's a bit of a let down.

i realise christmas is still months away, but i'm going to blog about it anyway. i love christmas. the traditions. the food. the weather. i love wearing hats, gloves and scarfs. i love eating a million candy canes. i love going out in the dead of night to watch it snow (i realise it doesn't snow much here) and i love going iceskating in winter wonderland. i love everything about christmas.

i look forward to iceskating with my speical someones this year, and eating candy canes, and drinking from a starbucks christimas cup.

i just love christmas.

i had a very very very long day today. in fact i shall have another long day tomorrow, and yet i've decided to blog before going to bed. silly silly girl.

even though today was long i had overall a lovely time. at half nine i met chelsey in the station and we headed up to london, to go to all of the arcadia stores. we have a day of and we go to our place(s) of work. what were we thinking? i managed to grab some stuff for uniform and pay of my staff card. after our some what shopping we had nandos for lunch, after which we both developed 'food babies'. i had forgotten that i was meeting dan at five so i got on the train home with chelsey. and then a few hours later i got on the train back to london.

i met dan outside topshop/topman, we went on search for jeans, music/theory books, and coffee (lot's and lot's of coffee). just as death cab said it 'things are just a bit nicer over some coffee' it's nice to just sit down with a friend and talk. very nice.

i saw dinosaur dj/the dinosaurs/dinosaur jr. tonight, and well, they were good but the use of guitar solo in EVERY song killed it. we left before they were finished. i think dan was aware of the fact that i was almost about to fall asleep while standing, even through the loud music. no amount of coffee seemed to have helped, it did how ever prolong the amount of hours i've been awake for. five hours sleep was not clever.

dan was very thoughtful today. he brought me a bottle of vanilla syrup, so that i can put it in coffee when i'm at home. he remembered what i said about only liking vanilla lattes, as i could taste the vanilla. i look forward to using it in the morning before i have to go and work for stupid dps.

i wish i looked like the photo above everyday. sigh.

coldplay

for the second time seeing them, they were even better. coldplay is one of those bands where i forget that i love them as much as i do. but i do, so when i listen to them i become obsessed with them for a brief period of time before going back to listening to death cab for cutie.

i wish i could go to more gigs, but they cost money, something i am lacking at the moment.

( i shall update this with photos from the film camera i took. once it's developed of course, or i may just post a new blog with them in it.)

the polaroid was taken when i got home from london. i took it on the way to con's, for our late night/early morning tea, right before the cat ran past me and scared me half to death. i had a nice time, we watched eternal sunshine, drank tea and i listened while con played guitar, he was just improvising and it sent me to sleep, i blame his comfy sofa. he asked if i wanted to stay, but i would have been awoken by his sister at seven, so it seemed wise to decline.

the photo of the drink was taken by dan in wagamama. every time i go there i always get tap water, other wise known as 'government juice', and green tea, the first time i went to wagamama i ordered the green tea, just because it was free. i had a nice evening on wednesday, it was near enough perfect.

around about half an hour ago, i walked to ian's, so that i could see him one last time before he heads back to uni. i will miss him, not that i saw him so much, but it was nice knowing that he was only thirty seconds away. (i have seem him quite a bit recently, this is good) and i'll get to see him again at bloc party, not to mention that at some point i'll go and visit him.

my room smells of vanilla because of a candle i was given, i fucking love the smell.

i'm writing this blog mainly because i have nothing else to do. my original plans where pushed back by five hours, so i got up at nine for nothing. i've tired having a nap, but my body seems to want me to suffer.

the photos above show me this morning at nine, and then me now. (i look horrid in the second, but look at how light my hair is???)

my feet are stupidly cold. i need to remember to take the tag off my new shirt. god i love flannel. my laptop screen needs cleaning. also if anyone has a copy of 'ozzy' lemuria's new song send it to me and i will love you forever and ever.

someone asked me if i liked the smashing pumpkins. i've never given them the time of day before. and i've got to say, now that i've taken the time to listen to them, they're really growing on me.

i'm annoyed at the fact that i didn't know modest mouse announced a london show for december, and now the standing is sold out. i need someone to come with me please, as i'm fine going to a show alone if i'm standing, but seated is a different story.

(let me know if you'd like go)

i've booked 4th october of from work so that i can go to this place cargo. it has one of london's only photoautomat. the idea is you take the strip of photos, you keep one and they keep the rest, they'll be having an exhibition at the end of october. i'm kinda bummed i cant go to the rakin live exhibition (which also has a photobooth) as it finishes soon, like next week? and i have zero money left, my last twenty pound is going towards my day out in london on wednesday, i'll be taking more polaroids. and i might finish my disposable camera..

i've changed the colour to my layout, needed a change.

i would like the following; a clear nights sky, and a boy (pretty much the image above)

my mother turned 50 on thrusday, there where plenty of cakes and other such foods. i ate too much. our family friends brought an australian man with them. he was odd. his accent was weak. i was not impressed. he did how ever look like someone sharon from kath&kim would marry. i do love that show.

my laptop screen is dirty, it needs a clean.

someone buy me all of this, or just one or two. thankyou.

(all from uniqlo)

(twilight candy: great in theory, horrible in taste)

this is what my day consisted of.

today was nice (to an extent), don't get me wrong i had a lovely time, however not knowing somethings sure puts a downer on things. i don't know where i stand? it seems things get better for a while and then i end up wanting to ask the same questions, but as always i never do.
