Re-run.

today i am going to start blogging again.

today i am going to not fail at it (AGAIN).

toady i am going to makeover this thing.

These are the three vows (of dread) that i am going to stick to this time, and i think i will share with you my reasons and plan of action.

Firstly, i know i havent blogged in about two months (woah.) and i think it is because i have changed my interests since i started blogging, so i figured... "change the blog then?!"

So.. i am :) and i am going to TRY my hardest to do a post at least once a week, and... urm... this is the first, so lets get on with it!!

and what better way to announce the good news... (no, i'm not pregnant -_-)

I AM GOING TO THE UNDERAGE FESTIVAL!!

AND PEGASUS BRIDGE IS PLAYING THERE!!!!

*phew*

if you havent heard of them-and even if they are already your favourite band-here is their song, ribena...

fear them, one day they will take over the world.

playlist of the week:

pegasus bridge-like dogs

tokyo police club-bambi

neon trees-animal

Because it's the royal wedding.

And this is by far the coolest piece of memorabilia !!

(its from Lazy Oaf by the way!!)

**dfs Crufts is coming up, and me and mum are going to the Toy and Utility day on Sunday to do some interviews for Liquorice Magazine... Updates soon!**

A pat on the back, a shopping opportunity and a disappointment

hello!! I haven't posted on here for aaagggeees so... sorry about that :S

But on with the title, firstly, a well done to my mum (Nicola) who did a presentation at her university and won a prize, which i am quite excited about.

!!~***IT'S AN IPAD!!!!! AAHHH!! :D***~!!

I was stuck on it all weekend, thanks and congrats mum! Here's a clip of her prize-winning presentation:

Which leads on to the next point. Now that we have the iPad, it seems we need all sorts of new equipment (case, cover, screen protector..) *sigh* there are so many hidden costs in these things!!

Anyway, I like shopping, so I'm not that bothered :) Here are some of my favourite iPad products:

keyboard

Stylus

hello kitty case !!

ooh, leopard ;)

... and this finally leads onto the disappointment. Well, it's more of an annoyance really...

Anyway, as I'm sure you have heard, the iPad 2 has come out!! (so, as soon as we get an old one, the new one comes out!! angry!!) It has 2 cameras, facetime, its thinner, lighter, faster, longer battery life, it comes in white, and basically all round better! Check out the Apple website for more info!

bye!! x

This Weekend...

Thought I'd share with you a summary of my weekend:

1) I dyed my hair 'brown' which turned out slightly darker than i hoped. To be fair, I did use 'Deep Brown-Black', but i had blonde hair before, so...

...anyway, I used John Frieda Precision Foam Colour, after hearing some good reviews about it. Let me tell you two things about it: 1) The hair colour chart on the side lies. 2) The conditioner that comes with it makes you hair really soft, and there is enough for quite a few uses! Woop!

2) My 'Meat is Murder' top came in the post on Saturday!! Yey!!

3) I got a new hairbrush. I've alway wanted one like this :)

4) Songs I'm listening too:

L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N. - Noah and The Whale

Always Where I Need to Be - The Kooks

Jump Into the Fog - The Wombats

Is it a bird? is it a plane?...

...No, it's a mug.

But it looks like a camera lens! How genius!

This little camouflaged mug even has a lens cap...

...And they are both amazingly detailed, and have stainless steel linings.

It comes in two varieties: 'Nikon' (which actually extends!) and 'Canon'... what very suitable names...

As a camera geek myself, I would love one (my birthday is in April, by the way) but seriously, even if you have never seen a camera in your life, how could you resist it?!

You can buy it at Photojojo by clicking here.

Pretty thing...

isn't this just the cutest dress ever?!

from topshop.

Nottingham's Not Ready Yet...

So, on Sunday I went into Nottingham with my mum and dad. The reason? Dad was in an exhibition entitled 'Not Ready Yet'. It lived up to it's name and was quite a good concept. Some of the art, however seemed a bit invisible and... Not up to scratch..? Some was good though, but I'm not naming names!! It is at the Exchange (opposite Primark), and is held in an old shop. It runs until the 6th February so pleease drop by if you are near! To find out more, just click.

If you can't make it, here are some pictures of what your missing!

The front entrance of the purposely taped-up shop/gallery

ooh, mysterious... Some of the rooms were locked with padlocks, and the public had to ask for them to be opened.

Notice the bin bag...This was our view before the exhibition opened. We thought it was part of the art, but it disappeared when the doors opened...

Not ready yet

View from inside to out into the Exchange through the tape-covered windows

It was like a mini-maze inside. That's one of the bits my dad made!

... and this is another of his creations... such a skilful pile...

After we looked round a bit, me and mum went 'shopping'. Basically walked round Primark for about 5 minutes, while mum complained she was 'bored'. I only had time to buy some jeans. We also went to a really nice little cafe/sandwich/panini/coffee shop type thing called Atlas Deli, where I had a pink flavoured water (or 'Vitamin Water'):

And a brie and cranberry (or something) panini, which was very nice!!

Yum! xx
