Since my brain is currently a little bit frazzled by the sun and tiredness, I was wondering, what do YOU want me to write about next for my Living on the Cheap feature? Throw any topic at me and I will try and find the cheapest way to go about what you want!!
Just a quick warning, I forgot about connecting to the internet when I get to my mums, sometimes my step dad takes a while to put me back on the network, but I might just get a bus to my dads during the day and go on his laptop, to keep up to date, haha!
Anyways, let me know what you want and I will write about them in the next couple of Mondays!!
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;
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*

Quick Update: Expect A New Post...
Tomorrow! Hopefully I can get up two tomorrow!! They might be slightly shorter than my usual rambling ones, due to still being with the boyfriend!!
Quick update is that I have finished all my exams now (finished Wednesday) and me and the boyfriend went to his on Thursday, which is practically an all day journey! At the moment we are in Hull, today we just went to town to catch up on stuff!
Must go, boyfriends put on Duke Nukem: Forever and I like to watch him play games (sometimes I take over)
See you tomorrow :D

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?
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
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!
