Simple Sunday and Mostly Monday

Time for a catch up! Sunday and Monday were pretty chill days, with a few bits of hecticness thrown in!

Sunday ~
Sunday's are my chill out days and I like to start the day (or sometimes end it) with a lovely long bubble bath, filled with Lush bath products!!
Lotsa bubblleessss
Relaxing bath is not complete with out cup of tea and a book!
I like to paint my toe nails on Sundays, so I did a proper pedicure! I soaked my feet in a warm bowl, used a pumice stone on them, moisturised them and then painted my toe nails! I used those toe separators so I didn't get my toes messy, as sometimes they stick together and I get nail polish on my skin!
Messy table not optional for pedicure
Blue tootsies!
I need to redo the tips today though, because I went swimming Monday LE SIGH. Why can't they make a chlorine proof nail polish D:
I also spent the day colouring in the picture I was working on:

Every fortnight, there is a quiz night near my dads place and we always go if I am at his place. We don't aim to win, more to have a good time and see my Aunty Jane!
I usually have to write!! I don't mind though, sometimes I know the answers, but other teams know more!! We did end up winning the Bonus round though, which wasn't too bad!! Its always a high light of the weekend, going to the quiz!!

Monday ~ 


Monday started up with finishing off my picture (finally)
I then met up with my friend for swimming!! I like to go swimming once a week if I can, and hopefully, one day, I will pay for a month!! Then I can go swimming as much as I like all month!!
After swimming, we sat outside and had some lunch, enjoying the warm day!
My friend Zara comes with me to swimming a few times, she enjoys the couple of hours doing it, even if the swimming pool is full (like it was yesterday) of kids!
That's the swimming pool behind Zara!
After lunch, Zara had to leave, so I ended up staying and enjoying some time reading my book and enjoying the weather!
After I got home, since I was in the drawing mood again, I decided to draw something else, an entry for a competition on deviant art! It only took me the afternoon and evening to complete, so its a bit scruffy;
Line art and beginning of colouring
Finished image!
It's meant to be a God of Light, in the form of a Griffin! It was fun drawing something I don't usually draw and I enjoyed it, and also it shows I can finish a drawing in a day haha!!

Any ways, that was what I did on Sunday and Monday, not much, but I enjoy my quiet life style!! See you tomorrow!

STAY BEAUTIFUL

I'm Back! My nerdy June

Hellooo!! As promised, I am back from my month off with the boyfie and making a blog!! This shall be blog on what I got up to on my June!! It was a nerdy June, to say the least! WARNING: This blog is photo heavy!!

My boyfriend didn't come up till the fourth, so I amused myself by starting a drawing, since I haven't been drawing much recently;

This was how far I got before my boyfriend came up and distracted me from everything :P He is so naughty!!
To celebrate him coming up, I made a big cake (as I love baking for everybody and anybody!!) and tried something I have never done before, which is a triple layer cake! It was Victoria sponge top and bottom, with red velvet cake in the middle! And lots of jam and butter cream between layers, and covering in icing!
I tell ya, this cake was sooooo good!! NOM NOM NOM!! We managed all of it!

It was still exam season and I had to go to my exams a couple of times, leaving my boyfie behind :( At one point, on my bus on the way home, part of it fell off!
Luckily, it wasn't a vital part and the bus could carry on and take us home till the last stop, then turn his light off. He did advise we didn't stand under it though!!

I did paint my nails during June, using my new cracked polish and tried a gradient look underneath it;
There is light blue on the bottom and then fades into metalic aqua, but you can't really see it in the photo!! I did enjoy looking at my nails all the time when they were like this though, it is very fun!! Sad times for my nail polish collection though, my only Opi nail varnish broke, it was my favourite to put on my toes!

After just under two weeks at mine, and all my exams out the way, me and the boyfie made our way up to Hull, where he lives. It was a miserable day, though, of travel, luckily we were comfy inside all the time! Unfortunately, Nate gets a little coach sick, so next time we are sitting at the front to see if that helps!!
Good bye Portsmouth, hello Hull!

This is an impromptu photo that the boyfie took, as you can tell, when we were in the bus station at Hull at some point, not the day we arrived, but another day! Thats my why are you taking a photo of me smile!!

As some of you might know, I only have a little notebook laptop, its teeny tiny and fitted on Nate's desk so when he had to do something on his PC I could just sit next to him and go on facebook for a bit! And twitter, and occasionally blogger. He was putting Win7 on my notebook for me, so now I am up to date!
My little notebook next to his 24 inch monitor and speakers. At home, I have the same monitor to hook up my laptop too (if I didn't, I would go mad with that tiny screen all the time!) This was before Win7 when I was originally on Ubuntu, because something went wrong with my Windows XP hard drive. Nate worked out that it wasn't my laptops hard drive connector, luckily, and installed a new SSD so I could have Win7!! Thats just part of the nerdyness, most of our time was spent playing computer games (Portal 2, Amnesia, Deus Ex, The Witcher 2) and watching movies!!
Here is a random photo of his little sister and you see that scary looking flesh blob in the background? Thats the best photo I got of my boyfriends front xD Hes photo shy! He looks kinda creepy in this, like an Amnesia monster or something!!
I did remember to take ONE outfit photo (aren't I great at remembering things, one in a month :P)
Love this skirt, its so comfy!! £1 from a Primark sale!! Just slip it on and slip it off, stretch and comfy and doesn't make me look that fat!! Bonus! The only problem with it, is that it rides up while you walk! This is mainly the fault of my big bum though!
Hello bloggers!! Yes, those nails are very chipped!! I didn't have any nail varnish remover and it was driving me crazy having badly chipped nails, but I didn't want to pick them off, cause thats bad for my nails!

That drawing I did, I did eventually finish it, due to the fact of my boyfriend fiddling with my laptop for ages putting Win7 on it and stuff, so I was bored and decided to finish colouring it! Boredom turned into productive creativity, whoop!
Its one of my characters called Kyo, he is a fire Angel and a Summoner of fire creatures. More about him will be on my nerd blog shortly!!
I also managed to start a new picture, including starting to colour it! Heres how far I have got at the moment;
You can see the full drawing here

Close up of the colouring I have started
I am trying to improve on my colouring and drawing!! One day I will be awesome at it *false hopes*
In the last week, Nate ordered some under bed storage, as underneath his bed was a mess! Men are so unorganised!! I sorted his clothes for him, made him chuck out a lot of stuff and seperated what was left into different boxes so it was easier for him! I wonder if he will keep it that neat though...t-shirts in one box, trousers in another sort of thing!
Good bye under bed storage, I hope you stay as organised as I left you!!
We also ordered a massive 16inch pizza one night, GOOD GOD IT WAS GOOD. Not excellent, but still amazing!!
I couldn't capture the hugeness of it, but it was big, I have never had a 16incher before!! What let it down, was the fact they had put kidney beans on it, even though it didn't say kidney beans, and that made it weird :/ Apart from that though, it was one good pizza!

At the end of the night, on the second to last night, Nate was sorting some songs out for me and I got bored, so decided to put a bow in his hair. I put it to the side at first and he took it out almost immediately. But then I sneakily put it on the back of his head and he didn't realise for ages till I told him! Didn't even notice me taking a photo! BWUAHAHAHAAHAHA
Isn't he a pretty boy :')

I came home on Saturday, and tonight I went to a pub quiz with my dad. It was a generally chill day today, just relaxing after struggling through the hell that was London's underground. My arms and shoulders still hurt from the massive detour I had to take due to the Victoria line being closed!! And people in London are very rude :( Always shoving past me even though I had two heavy bags and a big suitcase!

So thats my (very long) update!! I hope you feel you are all up to date and will forgive me for not being online! I am back nooow!
See you tomorrow! Now time to answer my comments *flexes fingers*

STAY BEAUTIFUL

Blisters are Better, Drawing is fun again!

Where I am it is June!! So happy June!! Bit of a late night blogging going on here, cause I been doing other things :P But I thought I still best update :D Even though I am in bed at the moment, ehehehe!

Today, was an earlish start for me, 830am!! I am a lazy soul and usually don't get up before 9am! But I had to meet my friend at 11 and the bus takes about an hour (and I take about an hour and a half to get ready!) so I had to get up! Luckily, its a 9am start Wednesday morning, so I can fit in this sneaky bloggings before I go to sleepies!

My friend Jess wanted to go to Lush, to stock up on a couple of things before heading back to Canada (booo, shes so awesome!) and so we raided it! I have been raiding Lush often in the past month and now have many Lush things! So naughty!! Not cheap at all either!! Tsk tsk! Mind you, it WAS my birthday, so I was spending birthday money, thats allowed, right?

Me and Jess with her last ever Lush portsmouth haul!
After Lush, Jess had to go and work (shes a nanny) so I went to check out boots and what I could spend my £6 worth of points on! I had already bought some Soap And Glory stuff, but the other thing I wanted to try was £7 something, and you can't use Boots points and money :( So I hit the make up instead and good ole Barry M ;D Now, I have never tried  Barry M except in nail polishes, so I tried a lipstick! I wanted a nice lavender shade, so picked up this one (sorry the pictures suck, phone camera!):



Simple black squarish tube with 'Barry M' in gold writing on the top!

See, a lovely lavender shade in the tube!! It has a creamy consistency, very nice though!
Heres what it looks like on:
My mum doesn't think it suits me so much and I am not sure, but I will give it go, as it is such a lovely colour!!
That was £4.49, so I decided to check out the jewellery on sale as well! I got this lovely little wing (which my mum hated, she hates random wings)
I think its really cute and pretty though!! Even on my stubby fat fingers!! Talking of fingers, I used my Barry M Crackeds Monday night!
I loved how it turned out! I used all Barry M nail polishes, a red with pink cracking on top and pink with black cracking on top! I think it looks marvolous :D I painted my toe nails the same red:
I was taking all these photos while nomming on some delicious cous cous, I always pinch my dads packets of cous cous!!
Nom nom nom (yes I do eat out of the glass bowl I made it in, I am a slob :P)

After hanging out at my dads and eating his food, I decided I best go home and revise for my looming exams! Luckily, I had obtained a cakey on the way home, so it wasn't all bad:
Mmmmmmm cake and tea, with a good ole Greek Tragedy, just how I like it ;D Today was revision for Classical Civilisation, so I was reading through the booklet we got given and making more notes on Oedipus the King. Its quite interesting, if you are weird like me and into that kinda thing!
I only did two hours of revising because thats all I can handle, I get restless easily! Unless I am doing different things, I can't sit and read, unless its a really good book! I put some washing on half way through haha!!

I did take photos of what I was wearing today, before I forget :D
Can see the print of the dress better in this one

Dress: From Matalan I think
Cardy: Dorothy Perkins
Shoes: Shoefayre

I love necklaces and earrings with feathers on at the moment, I don't know why, but its become an obsession! I believe this lovely necklace is from Primark
Earrings from Primark that kinda match and a heart shaped necklace that says my name and has Tinker Bell on it :D I got it from Florida!
I thought I'd do an up close shot of the print on my cardy so you can see the little butterflies! I was wearing flowers and butterflys :D
I LOVE these shoes, they are so comfy and cute, with denim like material!!

After revision and dinner, I just chilled out max and decided to start drawing again!! I decided to begin with a picture of one of my more abandoned original characters, Kyo:
Not tooooo bad considering I haven't really drawn properly in two months!! I will colour him in tomorrow!

And with that, it is nearly 1am and I must sleepies! So goodnight from me!

Stay beautiful!

First Day back at College!! AKA Day From Hell

Back with my frienddds :D
The only GOOD part of Monday was going to college and seeing all my friends!! I love my friends they make me happy :D

But lets start at the begining. It started as soon as I walked out the door and forgot my umbrella. I cautiously eyed the sky and thought, well, it said it WON'T rain so maybe it will just stay cloudy. Got on the bus to Gunwharf and realised, as I go to renew my bus pass, I forgot my old bus pass and in my old bus pass is my photo card which can be reused...which would of mean't I wouldn't have to spend £5 on new photos. BUT  I has forgot the bloody thing which ended up with me battling through smelly Bestevial goers clogging up the train station only to realise I didn't have enough change for the £5 photo machine. I had to then battle back through them to the Co-Op which was right across the bus station and the other side of the road for the nearest atm. Only to find out that their machine wasn't doing cash withdrawels FML. I had to trek back across the road, walk into Gunwharf itself and withdraw money there THEN go get change. And Gunwharf isn't cheap so I went to Cadburys World and bought 60p worth of sweets and marched all the way back to the train station to get my photos, battling through more smelly people who were CLOGGING the entrance (SO RUDE GTFO OUT MY CITY) and then paid £5 for photos, £5 I really needed for other stuff grrrrr. I finally got my bus pass an HOUR after I got there and was half an hour late for college!! Luckily it wasn't a lesson or anything, just collectin time tables and student handbooks. And I got to see my friends!! So the time I was at college was good!! Got to see my besties, Lizzie and Rachel:
Lizzie <3
Rachel <3
Rachel's boyfriend LOL Hes a cool dude
We were in the Enrichment Fair where you can sign up to do extra mini courses, like learning a language thats not a A level. Me and Lizzie signed up for Ancient Greek and Latin, Tom and Rachel signed up for Archery!! There was this super cute dog there!!
Awwwws he was bored and tired!!
He was so soft and big, just the kinda dog I would love to have and cuddle!! SO CUTE.
Our tutor said we could have a break so we went to our old haunt, the Coffee House. It was empty cause only the A2s were at college and it was really weird seeing it so empty!! We saw my other friends, Chrissy, who nearly tackled me to the ground when she saw me, and Ben Ben, who is gay!!
So small but so much lik a Rhino at 40 miles per hour hugs!
Ben Ben has a book for a face
When we went back to the room we were in, our tutor said we could just go home if there wasn't anything else to do so we were like YAY and went to the bus stop, where we saw Mumbler, our favourite Classics Civ nerd!!
I think this is his sex face...
Here Lizzie took a picture of my outfit for me:
M&S cardy, Primark dress, Primark shoes, Red Herring bag
Yes, I was wearing my precious new satchel bag. And yes, when I got off the bus...it pissed down on me..RUINING MY FREAKING BAGS PAINT. So continued the day from hell. It rained on me all the way to Superdrugs and all the way back to my dads place, leaving me very damp. I didn't notice my bag till it dried off and left big light coloured splotches across it!! It looked like someone had thrown bleach over my precious new bag, I wanted to cry!! I tried everything to fix it but nothing worked. It didn't get any worse but it didn't get any better. I suppose I will just have to live with it and think of it as a vintage look *sigh*. And to top off my day from hell, my shoes, which have never given me blisters before, decided to give me a MASSIVE blister on the side of my foot, just one foot, which was hugely painful! Ouch!! Needless to say all thoughts of diets and scheduals and stuff went out the window and I finished the day in my comfy pjs and Hello Kitty dressing gown eating Nutella with a spoon. NOM.
On the plus side I saw my friends and picked up some things from Superdrugs I wanted BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE MY FREAKING FACEWASH. ARRGGE!! But here are the things I did pick up:
Vitamin E Moisturising cream with SPF 15, mudd mask, MUA lipstick
Needed a new morning face cream with spf
Lovely plumy colour, nearly the same shade as my GOSH soft n shine
Excuse the freckles round my lips I always have those xD
I wanted a lipstick that was a similar shade to my GOSH Soft n Shine and since I was feeling down I was like eff it, its only £1!! So I picked out the shade closest to my soft n shine lip balm and loved it straight away :D
At around midnight I got the urge to draw, so I started off a drawing, even though I should of really gone to bed I was so tired and drained, but sometimes, drawing makes me feel better!!
SKETCHY SKETCH
Just some of my original characters in my story High School Horrors. Three guys and one girl!!
Right, thats enough blogging for me today!! Gotta tidy my room!!
