Just more random stuff

It's sunday and I should be working on my portfolio, but at this moment i'm not, i WAS trying to sort out my wireless and stuff.. but grr, i was never into computer stuff so I'm going to leave it until later. Too much to stress about.



So I didn't go London yesterday, ended up staying in town, didn't really buy anything, was mainly looking for the new i-D (which I found out comes out on the 10th earlier). I ended up going back home with a the April edition of TeenVogue - which i thought was the May issue, a bag from Primark (my first bag from Primmy, I've usually bought most of my bags from Topshop), a (cool) empty cup thingy and mug from Starbucks

I've always wanted a leather-esque bag so that I could wear the leather in, the colour is quite weird, slightly lighter than the one in the photo, so it's not yellow, it's 'ecru' or something like that. I was planning to take the handles off and leave the strap, but when I took it home it looked quite alright. Must be the Primark environment, putting me off. It was so busy! It's always busy in Primark though. It's NEVER not busy. Mad.

On the left is my tall Caramel Frappaccino and the mug on the right is my friend's tall Hot Choc. in my mug in which she took for me :)





I know, i know, theft is wrong, but it wasn't theft. And i go to Starbucks enough for them to not give a shit and earn plenty enough money to order thousands more of those cups.




It snowed today!!!!!!! I was sad enough to go out and take some pictures. The snow didn't settle on the ground properly, but it did on everything else. Here is my garden in all it's glory:










Aaah, so pretty.






Yeah, this post is pretty random.

Something I want to know, going to the cinema alone. Is that weird? I would go to my local one but it's weird because then i'll have to walk past these people everyday. I'm considering London, but my friend went there the other week and said she had to pay £10. Errr, i;m cheap. I don't want to pay that much. I only want to go see Son Of Rambow.... but another friend of mine said it was ok and that he'd done it plenty of times... so yeah.. i'm really considering it. Just after my interview and assessment.

Another film I'm going to see, when i'm not totally sure but I know i'm going to, is Funny Games. I've already read what the film is about on wikipedia, and just now I watched the trailer. So good. But it does make me worry about stupid people copying the film and then there will be the big controversy of some wanker being stupid enough to go round kill/toturing people in ways he watched in a film and then the film gets in trouble because of it. Just like songs, music getting into trouble because some twat actually goes and copies what someone has sung about. It's only a song.

Fairly hungry, haven't eaten properly today, will rustle up a caeser salad thing with toast and eggs. Mmm. Yummy.

I plan to do about 4-5 A1 sheets tonight.

I took a picture of the 'concoction' I made. Tasted good. I'll post the picture tomorrow. I'm now watching Jarhead. Why is he hitting Jakey?!?!?! This hurts my heart.

Darn my ways of writing.

Ideas

Have the idea of making mix tapes for studio at college.... change the tapes every week or so... that will be so cool... but seeing as I have one week left until a new Project.. the Final Project... i'll leave it until we come back then. After my assessment and all. It's going to go so bad my next assessment. I never know what to say and I always get semi-ripped apart somehow because of it.


So yes... first idea for Mix tape/s.. they're only 90minutes each so...

1. 'After Hours' - We Are Scientists
2. 'Show You How' - The Killer
3. 'Coffee and Tv' - Blur
4. 'Times Like These' - Foo Fighters
5. 'Michael' - Franz Ferdinand
6. 'Bitter Sweet Symphany' - The Verve
7. 'Y Control' - Yeah Yeah Yeahs
8. 'Bliztkreig Bop' - Ramones
9. 'Chocolate' - Snow Patrol
10. 'No Suprises' - Radiohead
11. 'Music When The Lights Go Out' - The Libertines
12. 'Sorry You're Not a Winner' - Enter Shikari
13. 'Girls Like Mystery' - The Cribs
14. 'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' - Bowling For Soup
15. 'Swing Swing' - All American Rejects
16. 'Big Sur' - The Thrills

That's all I can think of at the moment... they would be a better playlist but as my hard-drive got replaced and haven't been bothered to re-burn songs onto the laptop and it's a mix TAPE, going old skool. I have all these songs on cd...

It seems like such a lame idea now I think of it... bummerrr..

I bought my first copy for I-D today, it's ok. I need to get magazines like this, but... I thought I saw some cool photos when flipping through in the shops, but when I bought it back home.. didn't look so great. I'll shop around for similar magazines in the meanwhile. Didn't get the checked shirts I wanted though. Couldn't find any in Primark and I didn't go to any other clothing stores. My friend was being a bit funny when I first mentioned wanting the checked shirts so I didn't really bother afterwards.

Going London tomorrow with the parents. They need to go to some weird chinese bank for something and while I'm out with them, I'll go to the Art Shop, Cass Art, for some sketchbooks, i'll get them tomorrow - if they're on the sale - instead of later in the week as I was thinking of.

Ouch. Gone to microwave my cold Greggs 'sausage and bean melt' from earlier, I was washing up my dear cup'o'milk, I stab, well got stabbed shall I say, by a fork. Enough to pierce some skin, but not enough to bleed. I know, gross. Sorry.

The Virgin Megastores in London, Picadilly Circus? they have some pretty good range of magazines as I so remember vaguely back when I was last there for the DVD signing of Green Wing. Aaaaah.... There is a picture of me and my friend with Julian Rhind-Tutt in the middle, but my face is so bad. I shant show it. I'll try and get some sort of free photo editing software thing and blur out of face and then i'll post it. Oh such vanity. It's just that it's the first proper photo on the blog and I don't want to ruin all potential better pictures of myself. I want to be 'cool' not weird faced freak with Julian and her friend. Julian R-T if you don't remember or didn't know, played 'Mac' in Green Wing, the strawberry blonde/ginger character with the shaggy-ish long-ish locks. The 'lion's mane' or something, I LOVE Sue White. She was, and still is my favourite character. Semi R.I.P Green Wing :(

Somwhere to write this down - Angels and Airwaves - The Gift. Want that song. Might as well get the album. Need to sort out my ipod problem, that my laptop won't detect USB cables... not my camera or ipod.

"I'll make your fear run away.." that's a cute line. See, inspiration already. There's my FMP exhibition in July... i'll put an open invitation when it's closer the time... omg... like the news of kids putting up invites to their birthday parties on the net.. what if MY college exhibition gets trashed... that would suck.. out work getting ruined... Hmm.. it is a college... I mean come on, it's not a rave, shouldn't in theory get trashed by loads of hyper drunk kids looking for a good time. In early afternoon that is.

Err, what was I going to say. Oh yes. What happens if you mix cappuccino and hot choc powder together? It's a cappio sachet and some hot chocolate powder.. I'm thinking something Mocha-esque... shame i've left my flask at college... I shall google it... Ah, Moccaccino, or according to Wikipedia, to yous in the US 'cappuccino made with chocolate'.

That reminds me, Amelia's magazine. Need to buy that too. While i'm in London. I saw it in the design museum when I was there for the Matthew Williamson exhibition back in january. But I want to get the 9th issue but I'm not sure when it comes out. I may be low on money but this is one of the things I do for my art.

Omg. Wow. I want this. I think there is one of these where I live. But I very much doubt they'll have them so I'll go London if I have to....

Eley Kishimoto & Cancer Research UK: Fukuro Bag

Like OMG! It's soooo damn cute and only £2.99. I'm fairly embarrased and ashamed, but I did try to get one of the Anya Hindmarch's 'I'm not a plastic bag' bags, but damn my bus and need to sleep. I missed the LAST one in my local Sains. by about 5mins! To some stupid silly girls in the year below me. Grrrrrrrrr.

Sorry for all the random-ness, but that's the blog. It's in the name.

If there are big gaps between paragraphs then... oops, they're not meant to be so big, i'm trying to make the big posts (like this one) easier to read, seperate the different subjects in their weird ways.

That's it for now. I'll let everyone have a rest. I might try and play around on the blog. Set up some links to some blogs that are cool in my mind. It's a growing list so bear with me yo....
