Monthly Update :: July


This month, my posts have been sporadic, at best. But, I have a very good excuse. I've been out living, and doing things. It's quite liberating. I've been learning to hoop, honing my poi skills, getting caught in thunderstorms, and broadening my horizons. 

I want to take this blog in a different direction than its been heading, lately. I don't want to go down the "look what I'm wearing" beauty/lifestyle type thing that it's been. Ideally I want it to be what my original thought for it was. Art, writing and creative what-not.

I feel like I've been struggling to produce content, purely for contents sake, and that's never a good thing. It's not enjoyable to write and its certainly not enjoyable to read. Even as I'm writing this I'm trying desperately to find words enough to fill the post out. So, instead, I'm going to leave you there and I shall hopefully be back soon with something I'm a little more invested in.

New Shirt :: Casual Outfit




Found this Tee shirt in a charity shop (thirft store if you're not from the U.K) for £1.
It's so comfy and I actually fell in love with it a bit.

Blue Blue Blue

The sun seriously bleached the green from my hair, leaving it blonde (which it hasn't been since I was about 9 years old). I did have the intention of dying it green again and leaving the faded purple dye on the bottom the light blue it had become. Instead this happened.
I actually really love it.
I used Atlantic Blue by Directions, straight over the faded green.

Monthly Update :: June


June has been a crazy month! I honestly don't think I've stopped for at least six weeks now.
I am in desperate need of a day off but I don't see that happening in the near future.
My house is still not sorted out. It's my main job for the next week. My friend is moving in on Monday so I'm hoping this will be the deadline I need to get me moving.
I'm still surrounded by people everyday and I'm grateful for every one of them. 
Watching :: I'm still watching Hannibal, though now that my sky and internet have gone I'm watching them at my mums house.
Reading :: Mort by Terry Pratchett. I started it this morning actually. Death hires an assistant and it's safe to say he's a bit crap at it. If you haven't read any Pratchett books, what are you doing? Go read them.
Listening to :: Mainly Scuzz and Kerrang! music channels on in the background whilst everyone talks about nothing and everything all at once and over the top of each other.
