It was a sad picture of a sad boy, and she understood more than she wanted to. He’d take one of them to bed tonight, maybe both, you never knew with him. He would lose himself for a while, but then he’d wake up just as empty as before, still searching for whatever he thought would make him whole. She worried he would never find it.
because my flat mates don’t often see me because i spend most of my time at my friend’s flats they think i’m ‘dark and mysterious’, it’s laughable really - i’m probably the least dark and mysterious person you’re ever likely to meet. still, i can’t deny that i quite like that that’s what they think of me, i guess because it’s...

lady, where’s your love gone? i was looking but can’t find it anywhere. they always offer when there’s loads of love around but then you’re short of some it’s nowhere to be found.

i’m super super bored. it’s really foggy here which is making the countryside incredibly eerie, like something reminiscent of a horror film. fab. i ought to be packing for hogmanay but i’m putting it off because i know what a massive task it shall be - i don’t travel light. instead i’m trawling facebook and becoming increasingly depressed about the fact that one of my...

these violent delights have violent ends.
i was so self-conscious for so long. don’t get me wrong, i still am - horrendously self-conscious. but i feel like i can finally at least try to be myself. i feel like it’s only really recently that i’ve felt like i can dress how i want without worrying about what other people think. whenever we had ‘non-uniform’ days at school i always wore jeans and a jumper because...

so, i went ‘sale shopping’ today which is possibly my least favourite thing ever. i hate sales - everyone crazily looking for bargains, i’d much rather pay full price for something just to avoid the stress and hassle. anyway, i ended up with some tan tassle loafers which look really similar to the russell and bromley chester loafers but weren’t £135. yay. i also got some...

so, my laptop is officially dead and i’ve got to take it to pc world and probably wont get it back until january 13th. which is over 2 weeks away. how utterly ridiculous. the ‘tech guys’ clearly don’t understand the importance of tumblr and facebook stalking to a person’s life…oh, and writing essays for my degree, of course..
dear blackberry,
You’re utterly shit when it comes to tumblr, aren’t you??
i miss my laptop already. i’m far too addicted to technology, i realise. but, there’s very little to actually do here unless you enjoy standing in a pool of mud and looking at sheep or some fossilised limestone or the like..

What sort of uni work do you have to do this...
well, i have one essay for ‘gender and women’s studies’ to do, but it’s basically about analyzing ‘what not to wear’ so it shouldn’t be too arduous. i do have a hell of a lot of literature to read, though. i go back on 15th january xx

My laptop charger has decided to break and my dvd player is also being annoying so I might actually have to do something productive. Fab.

What did you get for Christmas? xxx
a lot of ‘bits’ really - a black dress with an embellished collar from topshop, a velvet smock top with a peter pan collar also from topshop, a nude top with an embellished neck, again from topshop (i’m basically single-handedly keeping them in business), a white smock top from FCUK’s ‘vintage collection’, luella’s guide to english style, ‘booky wook...

Favourite songs your loving at the moment?
well, currently i seem to be listening to ‘the flood’, ‘shame’, ‘teenage dream’, ‘i’ve got you under my skin’ and ‘flowers in the window’ rather a lot. utterly random i know. oh i also have a ‘minor’ obsession with ‘the afternoon’s hat’ as well xx
