Work on a sunday

So I didn't post yesterday cause I had work at JJB at 9-1 and then Debenhams 1:30-5:30 and then had a party, but there are pictures of what I wore yesterday, and I'm sure I'll find some awful pictures of ones that were taken there when I looked less fresh since we all got really hot in the little hall. But it was a good party anyway, I've work today at 10:30-4:30 too, so I'm a little tired still but I thought I'd better put up a motivational quote for you all to encourage you to get out of bed on this or at least here, drizzly rainy day!







Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness; no laziness; no procrastination; never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.

Eurghhhhh

I've eaten FAR too much pizza, and that will teach me to listen to my mother, I'm refusing to have dinner, I ate the pizza 2 hours ago and feel so sick, I rather wish to be sick. But never mind it is my own fault.
I also had PSE today, and while writing my personal statement for UCAS, I though I would check and see how many points Kingston wanted, they wanted me to of done Art & Design instead of Fine art which I've done, so I though I'd better ring the admissions office and ask... Historically they've never taken anyone onto a Design course who did fine art, and plainly put, I stand no chance of getting in... and thus that dream fell apart. But I've found some others but I'm still looking for a london based one to be honest even if it would be expensive. University is a bother so far, even if I am excited to go... still a bother for now.
On the other upside I remembered to take pictures today of what I wore! Even though it wasn't anything special, I really should of tried harder.
But here is where they are from etc. Even though it's all last years.
White long sleeved top - Primark
Leggings - M&S (they're thicker and warmer than Primarks whose have an itchy label)
Green Jumper - River Island (last years but very warm)
And my silver ring is from Accessorize and I currently LOVE it! I'm definitely getting into the whole ring things which is quiet nice!
oh and I know the pictures are quite boring, these were back up ones I intended to take some as I walked to town cause they'd be more interested, but not even for you was I walking to town in the torrential rain, so I'm afraid you're stuck with my back up photo's, so apologies for the bad hair and weirddd smile lol.

First morning quote!

"If you throw money out of the window throw it out with joy. Don’t say 'one shouldn’t do that' - that is bourgeois" - Karl Lagerfeld.
This was what he said when told he was a squanderer, and I think it's a good point. If you're going to do something then you may as well enjoy doing it! So what if you end up poor, as long as you enjoyed getting there, does it really matter? I'd rather be poor but no I was happy getting there, than be miserable and rich, wouldn't you?
& no this is not a reason to go throw money out the window, less of course some girl is dressed in 2 belts, one around her waist and one around her chest, in that case you're just pointing out that she seems to be in a certain profession.

So woke up in a pretty good mood, which always happens when I know what I'm gonna wear and for the first day it really does feel like autumn, it looks cold and it's not warm that's for sure! Which always makes dressing easier when you know what the weather is.I also got paid and I'm gonna go into town later to find some lip primer and some little black pixie boots (:

Failure II.


[The above photo: is from lookbook.nu called the virgin suicides, but I just really liked her dress and hair and thought it would be a nice picture for today]
I looked nice today, but it rained and put me in an awful mood so I'm afraid no photo. But tomorrow there will be! On the upside I found my direction for my art which is going to be the British Identity and I also managed to post the stuff I've been meaning to post for agesssss. And I get paid tomorrow,so I get to buy my black skinnies which are totally needed for my wardrobe and I also need to look for some black pixie boots and do some coursework, though I may just do that tomorrow when I go into school for PSE Day cause I've done all the work.
Oh and also I'm going to buy some rechargable batteries for my proper camera since I don't want to upload bad quality images. and on another note I also got some of my stuff for my night stuff for college, well mum got them for me, and I'm getting really excited now! I hope I'm not the only young person there though cause I'm really worried there all gonna be old people ><
but nevermind, I will put a post up in the morning before I go to school for you all (:
I also just had a thought about the morning post, and every morning the post will have a motivational Quote from someone, just for a bit of cheery morning motivation to get you all going over you're latte's and green tea (:

Fail


So I keep failing to do these. Which is bad since I always seem to have something to say just not when I want to! So I thought I'd just give you a quick low down of what's been happening, broke up with boyfriend, am broke, now work 2 jobs, plus do 3 a levels and want to re-take 2 exams, which I still need to sort out. I have an ever increasing list of stuff to do! So! I'm going to start making lists and I shan't sleep till the list is done! Which seems a good idea! and on this list... Is blogging! Once a day! for 30 mins at the least, and also posting a picture of what I wear will be one too, I'm afraid most of them will be boring since at the moment I only go to school or go to work, But I will try my best for you!
I've also been doing well recently on my driving and so need to learn more driving theory, so tomorrow I'm going to go to lessons, and take my friend some prospectus's and then sit out in the sunshine and read my driving theory book, sounds a good idea? I'll maybe take some photo's if I can remember, I'll also pop up to the post office so I can post away for my leisure card etc. and yes, as I am writing this I am writing more stuff on my list!
I'm also now going to upload all my photo's off my camera, since I know somewhere on there, there is a picture of what I wore, on the day that I decided I would write about what I wore every day.
I am also excited to tell you that I am getting paid friday, and that I am hoping, though not entirely sure yet, that I am going to buy these shoes! Except no one appears to be selling a pair *is now heartbroken* but these were the shoes!

New Year... Fresh Start

I think I say this every year, at the actual New Year, and the start of the new school year, but this time I mean it. Complete fresh start, I will work hard and concentrate and not skip lessons, and I will get amazing grades, and I will go out more, so nothing too bad!
So to do this year:
-Keep loosing weight
-Don't let people aggravate me cause they are silly
-Work during my free's
-Draw more clothing designs
-Blog far better than what I am!
That shouldn't be too hard to do?
Anyway this is day 1:
I've had a pretty rubbish day, a really sucky day, my friend messed up one of my subjects because of a falling out with some girl in the class, and so got us both moved, but that would be breaking the second rule, so I am over it. And I'm retaking 1 side of history and my first Art unit, so not too much extra work...
On the upside I got onto the night course for pattern cutting and dressmaking, so that is really good and has so far made my day. I feel far more confident in my abilities now and my future, which is always important. I've also a friend's party to look forward to aswell, and I've lots of new clothes to pick from to wear. Although I need to get rid of the blisters that I have at the moment really, so I'm about to google and see if I can find anything that will apparently help. Any suggestions girls?
So today was sucky, but I've picked up which is always good, I will also be putting up pictures of what I wear every day and will put as a caption where they are from, since I thought it might be a fun idea.

Had a day off work today so I went to the Sandringham Flower show with my mum and sister (well she went off with her friends for a bit).

Everyone waiting to see Camilla and Prince Charles, we never got to see them cause being short meant I couldn't see so we gave up in the end.

But it was a very nice day out, apart from the weather that everyone thought would be hot, was actually dark and kinda nippy! But we were English and ignored it, probably cause we're used to it. There were lots of things there, like a fudge stool :D and a frozen yoghurt stool (: and clothing ones with hats, and scarves and things like that, and far too many plant ones, and bags, like rafata ones, i brought one last year, it's hot pink with a black sort of fringing around the top and the handles are black and hot pink. Not that i'm ever going to take it anywhere but it just looks kinda pretty!

This was a stall with lots of really good smelling handmade soap! I was gonna get some cause they all looked so pretty. There's lots of hair things and stuff like that, all arts and crafts.
They also had this stall! which was so cool! I'm not sure how they did it but they had lots of other animals and they were all made out of moss and things like that, I imagine they just had a wired frame and sort of weaved it in and out but either way it was nice to see and a bit different.
They also had displays too! such as aeroplanes and horses, and show dogs and such things, oh and motorcross? not sure how that worked it's way into the whole country flowery scene, but I wasn't complaining. And they had a garden award, where you get a little sort of plot, and you make a garden in it and they judge it and then you get awards etc. the one below was a picture of a garden that was themed on the beach and was done really well! made me want to go to the beach. (:




This one was inspired by colors etc, and I just thought it was really cool and interesting, and was a bit different than the normal gardens do. A very fun twist!


The 2 photo's above were done by the army and was inspired I think if I remember correctly about an urban jungle, so obviously there's the phone box's etc. and I thought it was good how the plantation was done.



This one was inspired by the secret garden, and I thought the idea was a really cute idea.

This one was inspired by culture etc, and I thought it was really effective how the statue was reflected in the mirror.

they also have lots of bands play such as the military ones i.e. army, and they have some of the local school ones play too, so I took some video's for you all but they won't upload at the moment so I'll try a bit later.

So I've had a very good day today! (: Hope everyone else did and I'll be putting pictures up later (now is the later)(:

xoxo
