In's & Out's

Ugh SO I don't know if I'll be able to blog for a bit. It's all a bit up in the air at the moment. Basically, on Sunday night I came home, tried to turn my MacBook on, and it just.. wouldn't turn on. So I took it to a repair place in Guildford, and I'm waiting to hear back from them. They said they would call me today, and they didn't, so if they haven't called me by lunchtime tomorrow, I'm going to give them a ring. It makes me very sad.
Because I have allllll my pictures and about five written posts that I may potentially have to write again on my Mac... I am not so much in the mood for blogging! Haha. I came home tonight and thought I would do a little in & out post.

In
Catching up with good friends:
I've been feeling a bit in and out of recently, but tonight I met up with three of my favourite girls from my foundation course, who I got quite close to this past year, and we haven't all met up in a group since my birthday at the beginning of June. So we went to a Chinese buffet place in Camberley and it was pretty lovely. Good, cheap, greasy Chinese food and lots of gossip and laughs. I like that there's never an awkward moment with them. (:

Primarni:
I got through phases with Primark. Sometimes I hate it but I've been finding a lot of good things in there. I've posted about my I'm going to go in there later in the week with my mummy and pick up some of their jumpers and cardigans and a few cheap tops and dresses and that, ready for uni! I loveee their 'boyfriend' jumpers for a multitude of reasons, they're perfect for slouching around the house or chucking on over a top to go to the pub with leggings.

And speaking of Uni..
I am sooo ready to just start, y'know! I'm so so so READY for it. I did three years at sixth form, then a foundation, so I'm only just starting my BA hons in Fine Art this year, at the ripe old age of 20. I'm glad, though, it means I'm not really nervous or anything about it, or worried about making friends, and just really excited to get making work and be with other like-minded people.

Tumblr
I've becoming obsessed with Tumblr recently. Been trawling sites like Boom & Found & finding some interesting new paintings and artwork and that. This is mine: http://sometimearoundmidnight.tumblr.com, so you should link me yours as well!


Out
Broken Mac!
Like I said, not having my MacBook is sucking so bad. So so so bad. I have so much important stuff on that computer, and I'm worried I'll never be able to get it back! ): I'm using my parents computer at the moment and it has the noisiest computer I've ever had the displeasure of using! Plus it means using Windows, which is horrrrrid.

Student finance & enroling in university.
I hate this stuff, with a passion! It's just frustrating and long winded and complicated. I'm applying for DSA on top and it's another complication I don't know if I can be bothered with,, and jumping through all the hoops necessary and stuff. And then I officially enrol on my course on the 23rd of August, when online enrolment begins and I've been sent about 10 letters telling me about it, but not the information I need to actually to enrol! Will be so glad when I'm actually a student and there and getting on with it.

Friends
I'm looking forward to university and everything, but one of my really good friends is moving to another branch of my university in Maidstone, which is about two hours away from me, and I'm really going to miss her. ): She moves on like the 8th or something, and it's going to suck when she's not just around the corner all the time. I can see myself using a lot of petrol going down to visit her!

Summer
Just a bit fed-up of it now. Been looking at Winter collections online, and the weather has been pants, and I just want to be in full-on Autumn, now! I'm fed up of summer dresses, miserable weather-reports and flip-flops. I bought a hat the other day (as modelled by me on Twitter) and I want to wear it, and go shopping for a new Winter coat, and wear my boots comfortable and dig out my favourite scarves and gloves. I kind of wanted this summer to be better than it was, and then a lot of things have happened meaning it's fallen a bit flat, and I want it just to be over, and want a fresh start.

You can be underwhelmed and overwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed..?

Wooooooow. I have reached a spectacular 200 followers. 202, to be precise. I'm so in shock. I started blogging because I like pretty pictures of makeup and jewellery and clothes and talking about this stuff. Didn't think it would amount to 202 people following me!
So this is just to say a massssssive thankyou! I appreciate it all, completely. I read all your comments and it's great to see other people talking about stuff I'm obsessed with.

I don't really have much to say, honestly. This was just on my mind and I wanted to tell you how much I love you guys. I want to try and do a giveaway or something but I'm not really sure. I don't want to gain followers just for doing something like that, because I've seen it happen so much. I'll have a think about it and let you know, cause I definitely want to try and thank you lot in someway!

It's late now, but I am going to Westfields tomorrow! That's a big ass shopping centre in London. I want to find some new ~going out~ outfits and some nice flat sandals to wear, I think. I'm going to have a good peruse, anyway! And I'm going to spend as long as possible in Inglot, I want to pick up some of their nail polishes, as I got two last time and I love them. I suppose I should go to bed, really, as I am supposed to be driving me and all my friends there!

Before I go, I just want to take a minute right here to link some blogs that I have been loviiiing recently! As I thought is only fitting.


My Future Lies Beneath My Hat

I love Rach, completely, haha. I met her on my Foundation course that I have just finished and she's generally fantastic. We have similar senses of humour and she's such a laugh. She has a incredibly fashion sense that I can't even begin to understand but I love it, and she's starting at LCF in September! Her blog is relatively new, but when she posted about a sausage-dog-shaped-purse.. well, I'd keep an eye on it.

I love her blog! She always posts about great finds and things that I really enjoy reading, as I love seeing what other people dig up on the highstreet. Plus, she's a lovely girl who always leaves lovely comments!

The Girl With The Arab Strap

Emma is one, gorgeous, and two, incredibly stylish. Oh, and three, with great music taste. I love that she puts all her music with her posts. And I am very jealous of her recent Smiths shirt purchase! I might have to hunt one of these down, myself.

Lyd's Blonde thoughts

I've had Lydia on Twitter for ages and she is always fantastic at helping me pick my nail-varnish colour, haha. I don't know what I would do without her! Haha. Her nail posts make me incredibly envious and I wish I had her nails, they're wonderful, and she's such a sweetheart.

Tastes Like Glitter

Bicky is a breath of fresh air in the beauty community. I feel like people can be falsely nice and never say what they mean and always try and please companies that send them products and I know that Bicky would never do that! Haha. She says it like it is, has some great eyeshadow colour combinations and I love following her on Twitter, too.



I'll do some of these another time, but I reaaaaaally must go to bed now! I need to be bright eyed and bushy tailed for shopping times, man!
Love! xx

Oh my gosh..

This is just a quick post to express my complete joy and shock when I logged onto Blogger this afternoon and found I had 102 followers! Completely shocked to find this out! I just started this because I like rambling on about make-up and things, I never thought I'd have this many followers! This is a huge thank-you to everyone. (:
I think perhaps when I get paid I'll say thank-you with a giveaway..! But we'll see how many bills I have to pay this month! Haha
Thankyou!
xx
