wayy back

Today was interesting. I slept on the floor in maths, sat there all dazed and confused in German, practiced flute alone in a room in music and attempted to write a movie review in English.
Well... it wasn't a very productive day... and my review failed miserably, seeing as i only watched 20 minutes of the movie.

I really wish that this Chloe campaign would come back...

Pretty much my favourite... hopefully i'll be a bit more interesting next time... i really am in a nothingness/everyone-should-feel-sorry-for-me mood. Yeah, I know, pathetic.

things to enjoy at the moment

Photobucket


Currently there are a few things I am really into:

1. Google. I love it how like on random days the main Google sign thing is like a different picture. I always save them when i see them. I have one from every day of the Olympics :)

2. Sam Sparro. Ok, so not really into his music that much. But he is pretty much the coolest performer, and wears the RADDEST clothes. Anyone see him at the arias?? In his navy-coloured-velvet blazer, nerd glasses and silver shoes.

3. BurdaStyle. www.burdastyle.com I have spent hours on there. Just trawling through all the free patterns, looking for inspiration. It's pretty much really relaxing.

nothingness

Photobucket

today is a student free day, so although it's monday, i'm not at school. buuttt i have nothing to do. well actually quite a lot to do, but i don't want to do it sooo, i shall just continue to procrastinate on the computer. verryy nice.

i have one thing to say though. has anyone seen that transitions lenses add? the one with the nature cinematographer in the African outback. wait i don't know if you call it the 'outback' in Africa. Oh well, you call it the Australian outback, and i think you get the picture.
Yeah, so that ad is like my favourite, the lady is so classy, even when she's like roughing it in the desert.

watch it!

i want to ride my bicycle

Photobucket

Yes. I got my bike. I walked into my room when i got home from the airport, and BAM there was my bike. Just sitting there in the middle of my room, (Although bikes don't really sit), looking beautiful.

So although i got it a week ago, i waited until i could actually be bothered to take a photo of it in full glory. Not just some half-hearted photo in my ugly garage.

Oh my cruiser, how lovely.

Photobucket


Oh and as this photo does not clearly show, my mum bought me a pair of tan coloured gladiators today. And the photo makes them look alot more jesus-shoe-ish. But they are all buckley and studded on top. VVerryy Nniceee.
Will provide further details once camera has new batteries!

Ok this isn't a very inspired post. All I've been doing the last few days is going to school and be bored. It's ridiculous, all we do is go on the computer and play internet games, or watch movies. I don't really know why i go, well actually i do, because it's illegal not to.

SOO these are so random New Zealand photos. Couldn't be bothered to get any full outfit shots in, so this will have to do.
Oh and the top photo is of the mirror roof in Starbucks.

New Zealand

I got back form New Zealand yesterday.
It was cold, and the heat over here is very much appreciated.
I went to school for the first time today, with 6 people in my class. It's a bit of a joke. Anyhow heres a few snappies from an op shopping outing on one particular day out on the town.

ohh the heat

Photobucket

ohh the heat today is horrendous, all of a sudden BAM and it's hot. why does this bother me? because it means braving the heat in my docs, in an effort to break them in.
Although it is working.
And i feel a trillion times cooler than normal walking in them.
So hopefully these efforts will pay of, and soon they will be the most comfortable pair of shoes i own.
Photobucket

this photo makes me laugh

it makes my legs look skeletal haha, which, as this next photo proves, they are not.

har har har
have a good one!

ich fliege nach Neuseeland

Flight to New Zealand= what outfit do i wear.
Only 3 hour flight, so I'm not going to be sleeping or anything.
Keen on Docs to save space, and either a) jeans or b) skirt with layers upon layers of socks and stockings.

I think I'm leaning towards b.

or maybe a.
not sure

Today has been an interesting day so far. Woke up, went to the gym, as per usual, and then me and mum headed into the Valley. Why? in search of Doc Martens. Firstly we didn't even know how to get in there, because she never goes in there, and i only ever catch the bus, so we drove around until we kinda found it, parked in a parking lot, and searched around until we found the Doc Marten shop itself.
Then hits my first wave of disappointment: They didn't have my size in the copper-metallic ones i wanted, and weren't getting anymore. This news was also delivered from a very un-sympathetic dodgery old man, and i wanted to punch him.
So we drove to DFO to try and get the poppy docs, i previously had wanted. And once again they didn't have them in my size, and weren't getting any. But i didn't have any urge to punhc this sales lady because she was nice and helpful. So we decided just to try on some in black, to get my size, and wait for the new season Docs.

So I tried them on. Loved them sooo much. AANNNDDD convinced mum to buy the black ones :)
So now i have my very own pair of original Docs.
Black, hard leather. Veryyy nice.

Although, with the hard leather, they take a bit to break into them and mould to your feet, so at the mo, they aren't OVERLY comfortable. But they will be... eventually.

also, i ordered this AA mustard skirt a while ago, and they sent me a grey unisex zip-up hoodie instead. And now i've decided i can't be bothered to send it back, also in fear that they'll never send me my skirt, and they hoodie is cool aswell.
So i'm going to keep it, and it will be handy for when i go to New Zealand in 2 DAYS!
But the max. temperature for next week is forecast to be like 16 degrees... i'm screwed.
