And so ends another day

Well, I don't really have anything to say. This last week or so has been hideous. My head is crammed with uni crap that I don't want to think about and of course the question of exactly what I'm going to do when I finish. In a month and a half. A MONTH AND A HALF. Ideas on a post card please?! Because I am totally stuck. I refuse to go home, I will not be defeated. 
Also my camera broke, so although I want to do OOTD/FOTD posts I can't because I just get a blank screen when I turn the bloody thing on!! Arghhhh. So I have spent my weekend watching Greys Anatomy, trying not think of how shit everything is, and also, how all my stupid problems pale in comparison to what happened/is happening in Japan, which is horrific, I wish I could do something. 


Anyway, to cheer myself up, and anyone who may read this I thought I would post a nice picture of Dr Mcdreamy. mmmm. I'm also listening to Michael Buble. mmm. smooth.

Oh, before I forget, the amount I hate irish girls in Liverpool is on the increase...Last night in work, as we were running around like blue arsed flies to serve the 100's of customers 25p (yes, 25p, you read that right!!!!!!) vodka rmixers, a girl not even stood at my bar started screaming "come on wee woman, hurry up wee woman, vodka white, vodka white wee woman" that is SO not OK. I don't care how busy it is, be rude to me and I will serve you as-last-as-possible. Also, NEVER call me "wee woman" EWWWW. Because of that silly little girl, anybody who asked for "vodka white" for the rest of the night got asked what exactly they meant by "white" (lemonade) - I also threw in the occasional "milk? really?" just for my own amusement. 

Hopefully I'll be cheerier in the next post!

Evening all...

Well, hello.

Today has been rather odd... I got the worlds smallest sofa (literally) delivered this morning, and I can't get my head around why my landlord would order such a small settee! Me and my (very skinny) BF can't sit on it without knocking elbows... I can see this causing arguments! In fact, I will take a photo just because it is such a joke...
The Worlds Smallest Sofa.
 See! Not even two posters wide! No snuggling on this baby!! 

My eyes then decided to close so I had to have a nap... Uni has meant that I really struggle getting through the day without a nap, quite how I'm going to adjust when I enter the real world I don't know! After eventually dragging my lazy ass out of bed, I ventured to town... I was going to do either an OOTD or FOTD photo but I hated my wardrobe and just threw on an old plaid shirt, leggings and top shop belt, and my make up just didn't work. I 'invested' in some MAC foundation, strobe cream and concealer but I think I'm allergic to the foundation, I have quite dry skin, yet no matter how much I exfoliate and moisturise the foundation just makes my skin look awful, all dry and flaky- not a good look! If anyone has any tips on how to stop this let me know please! I've been using ELF tinted moisturiser recently which isn't quite as drying (although a lot thicker with better coverage then the MAC) and for £1.50 I can't complain, which is why I'm quite disappointed with MAC as it's so expensive!  I had a lovely catch up and a wee gossip with a friend from work then a chinese buffet with the BF. 
Nothing anything else interesting has happened...and writing this has made me want to march into MAC and ask for a refund and a free makeup tutorial but instead I'm going to watch Gossip Girl and wonder why random people off the street don't walk into their apartments due to them not having front doors, just lift entrances.

Until next time...

First Ever Blog Post...

So! As the title suggests, this is my first ever blog post. I don't really know what this blog is going to be about to be perfectly honest but I seem to be spending an awful lot of time when I should be studying reading beauty and fashion blogs and thought starting my own blog would be a nice way to procrastinate even more :) I'll probably just mundanely ramble on about my boring little life, clothes I want to buy, places I want to visit, books I'm reading or have read and actors I fancy, but hey ho, everyone has to start somewhere! 

Edited tree which I'm rather proud of :)
Today me and the bf went to Greenbank Park, in Wavertree, Liverpool for an exercise in becoming friends again... I took pictures of Canadian Geese and he complained when I started talking to a King Charles Spaniel. I have a bit of a strange thing in which when I take pictures I have to (very, very basically) edit the colours and things in them... above is one I took this afternoon which I actually think is quite nice. Oddly, in the park there was a half eaten can of sweetcorn, just sitting there, like a fisherman had forgotten to take his lunch with him. Obviously this also had to be photographed, although this picture proves how truly horrific my photography skills are. Hopefully my dad will let me loose with his Nikon DSLR next time I'm home ;) 

Isn't that odd!? It was just sat there...
Anyway, I think that's quite enough for now. I'm going to read a few pages of Richard Brautigan's "Trout Fishing in America." I rather enjoyed "In Watermelon Sugar" which I read in 45minutes on Sunday night, but "Trout Fishing..." seems rather more disjointed and post-modern so perhaps not as good. I'm sure I'll end up jibbering about it when it's finished anyway. Also, if anyone actually reads this, I'm looking to start watching a new TV series... I wanted to watch Greys Anatomy but ALAS! there was no megavideo link on surfthechannel for it, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! 


Until next time...
