and right before im about to drown she resuscitates me, she fucking hates me and i love it






(view of stage, florence-love that dress!, the xx, jamie t, la roux, muse)
just had a weekend of singing along to eminem.. his new album recovery has come out and i havent had the time to go and buy it but im listening to it on we7. its epic!
love the way you lie, his song with rihanna is just amazing. that is gonna be a big song (title lyrics from that song). also love airplane, the b.o.b song with hayley williams. love the eminem remix. that is a great link to what im up to tomorrow! im off to prague on a school trip! im gonna be gone til friday.. its very exciting! and then im going to france in a few weeks with a few friends!
anyway back to music. glastonbury has been going on this weekend so i picked out some of my favourite pictures to share with you. i watched the muse set online which was amazing. ive never watched a whole set of theirs but now i see why people call them one of the best live bands. also watched the xx perform their remix of florence's you got the love with florence! ive never seen the xx perform but theyre just amazing.
so have a lovely week. check out glastonbury stuff here. see you soon x

its time to come clean and make sense of everything.. coz when im standing here in the dark i see your face in every star





sorry i havent been around. its just been crazy with exams but ive finished today! i should feel relieved but i just feel tired! im not really into films and tv programs but i have my programs that i have to watch. anyway one tree hill season 7 has started and i wanna watch it but i havent watched season 6 so i ordered it last week and it just came today so its perfect timing. cant wait to get really obsessed with it! cant believe glee is over. im still in mourning.
anyway onto more interesting topics, music! im just loving so much stuff at the moment so heres a short list of what to check out btw theyre all dance stuff. im so into dance music but the more underground stuff. so here goes:

  • skepta-rescue me. i love the sound of this. reminds me a bit of chase and status but a bit more dubstep and deep
  • magnetic man-i need air. anyway its a great song by magnetic man which is a new supergroup made up of skream, benga and artwork. all massive DJs in their own right, this song doesnt disappoint.
  • fake blood-i think i like it. wow this is just an amazing song. i loved fake blood's remix of animal by miike snow so i was really intrigued to hear this and its just a great song.

maybe its the summer thats making me fall in love with dance music. or maybe its finishing school! you know im going to france in like (nearly) exactly a month. me and three friends are going on the 22 july! its very exciting! i need some new clothes though. i might go shopping tomorrow if i dont get too addicted to one tree hill. okay im going back to my one tree hill now... x (photos from random places and title lyrics from ellie goulding)

we are an example of why not to fall in love, it takes a turn and then it hurts more than you could dream of



these are some pictures i was thinking of having as blog title pictures but they didnt look quite right. i love the MGMT picture i have now. its so pretty. anyway the first picture is of coco sumner, the second is of florence and the third is of ellie goulding. im still so obsessed with guns and horses by ellie goulding except now i actually know all the words so i can properly sing along! also learnt a lot of the words to not afraid by eminem. just heard that song about half an hour ago on the radio. what an epic song. i just love eminem!
got a history exam tomorrow and im finishing my exams next monday so just a week to go! its so exciting!
the lovely title lyrics are from you me at six and their newish single liquid confidence. its not their best song but i love that lyric. that song has actually been around for ages!
anyway better get back to my studying, hope your all well x

and i just stare at him with her: i want to break their perfection




i feel like ive posted these pics before but i dont remember! well anyway i love them so i dont care! theyre from ashlea chavez.
im currently in love with coco sumner. she records under the name i blame coco and she just has this gorgeous voice. youll probably like her if you like husky voices. like a mix between adele and pink! her latest single self machine is just gorgeous. it is a grower but still amazing on the first listen and it just sticks in your head. amazing..
also i havent talked about MGMTs new stuff. i loved their old stuff a lot and when i heard their new stuff i was a bit dissapointed but it turned out that their song its working is a real grower. their new stuff is such a radical change so it took a bit of getting used to but i just love it now.
anyway on to non music related stuff.. we had a really fun party for a friend. with the exams we've not really had the chance to just hang out but we did yesterday and it was just great to be immature and stupid! now i have rude pictures drawn on my arms so i cant roll up sleeves for a few days! its gonna be wierd next year coz we're all doing different things. not seeing all my friends on a daily basis will be very strange.
anyway sory this is such a long post. thanks for all the lovely comments on the last post.
see you x (title lyrics by me)

love is a fucked up way to live but its the only way i know. love feels like home, its where i belong



i think i got these from stockholm street style but i cant remember. anyway i just love them especially the first one. love the effect used.
okay a few random things to talk about. is it wierd to write lyrics that you dont agree with like this title lyric. i like it as a title lyric but im not sure if its true..
i try not to write lyrics coz i cant write happy things so i end up writing and getting really depressed! im having a bit of deja vu at the moment. writing again like i used to. it was really watching this interview with eminem that got me writing again. he was talking about where he gets inspiration from and something in me clicked (not literally) and i just wanted to write.
also having deja vu about the music im listening to. i was just listening to some stuff from the killers fourth album with was really my summer album last year and changing my blog title picture. i havent done that since last summer!
so hope your all doing okay and speak soon x

youve begun to feel like home, whats mine is your to leave or take, whats mine is yours to make your own




now its the summer again, everyone seems to be in a relationship! me and a friend went the park on thursday and every fit guy had his arm around a girl! i was on tasty threads blog and she had a picture of alex and alexa and it made me realise that you never see pictures of them together. they havent broken up have they? i find alexa very annoying but i love her hair and as you know im a massive arctic monkeys fan!
i dunno if i ever talked about it on my blog but i have this obsession with tall guys. just the taller the better! last night i was trying to remember when it started and i realised it was from this music video someone made on youtube. its clips from smallville with the song look after you by the fray (title lyrics are from this song). i just loved how massive clark was compared to lana. they just looked so adorable together and so my tall guy obsession began!
im going a bit crazy coz i never realised how much history i have to learn so i might not be blogging too much. i know this week is gonna be crazy full of exams for a lot of people so good luck! soon it will be all be over! x

i bet that you look good on the dancefloor, i dont know if your looking for romance or i dont know what youre looking for





this photography by samuel bradley seems fitting coz yesterday i was at the beach! no i didnt just hop on a plane to spain (that rhymes!). i ended up going to blackpool with a load of 14 year olds (very long story how that came about) and because of some breathing problems, i didnt want to go on the big rides so i just went on the carousel and then went with two other people who hate big rides to the beach and we just walked along the beach for a good hour or two. it was so relaxing but also really tiring.
so a bit about music.. guess whos performing live on radio 1 on friday??!! EMINEM!!! i cant wait! hes so good live and i cant get enough of his single not afraid. cant wait to see what the next single is and just cant wait for the album!
hope your all well and hopefully post again soon (title lyrics from arctic monkeys) x
