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

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

if your not beautiful then what the fuck does beautiful mean?





this photography is by hana haley. i love the colours and the lighting.. its just stunning photography. so great news! ive finished all my sciences so i have a lot more time now to blog and stuff although ive still got history to worry about.
there seems to be a lot of new music around at the moment and some of my favourites are:
  • bang bang bang by mark ronson. this song is so addictive. its got a great catchy tune and is just very pretty and summery although its still sort of a dance record. does that makes sense?! (no)
  • xxxo by MIA. this song is also incredibly addictive. the chorus is basically her saying xxxo over and over.. it shouldnt work but somehow it does!
  • the best of times by sage francis. this song is all about the lyrics. just listen to this with your ear next to the speaker. listen to the lyrics, theyre genius! (its all about growing up and basically how being a teenager is shit)
  • kele from bloc party is doing some solo stuff and his first single is tenderoni. its a great dance song and is like bloc partys stuff but a bit more tuneful

so check out some of the amazing new music. love to know what new music your into at the moment.. have a great weekend x (title lyric written by me)

where would i be if this were to go under? its a risk id take, im froze by desire, as if a choice id make





this is the last set of pics i have from jason lee perry.. that sounds like he gave them to me when actually i just copied them from his website! (title lyrics from the xx)
so ive been dead busy learning.. just taking a break from my chemistry learning, the exam is tomorrow! ive been listening to some amazing music while learning.. it was radio 1s big weekend so i heard so much great live stuff including ellie goulding (currently listening to her album which is amazing), biffy clyro and the lovely rihanna. oh also paramore, i love paramore so much!
also totally addicted to eminem's new single not afraid and miike snow's new single the rabbit. eminems song reminds me of when im gone, both songs brought me near to tears!
okay better get back to my chemistry.. wish me luck and good luck to you all! x

when the evening shadows and stars appear, and there is no one there to dry your tears, i could hold you for a million years to make you feel my love






isnt that a beautiful lyric?! its from adeles song make you feel my love. this photography is also from jason lee perry. i love how summery it looks.
sorry i havent been around in the blogging world for a bit. i just had my biology exam this morning and im really not sure how it went! we'll just have to wait until i get back my marks! this week now is gonna be even more crazy coz ive got chemistry, physics and english AS.
thankfully i have my music to get me through it and lots of tea and coffee!
hope your all well and just wanna wish everyone good luck in their exams coz i know theres a lot of exams going on at the moment. once this week is over all i have is history and my IT theory so then i can do some shopping in my study leave coz theyre both quite easy!
im in desperate need of some summery clothes. ive been in jumpers and leggings which arent exactly the best thing for hot weather! anyway have a great weekend x

i best tidy up my head im the only one in love, im the only one in love





isnt this guy beautiful?! i dunno who he is but the photgraphy is from jason lee perry. i love it.
not got too much to say at the moment, im in a thinking mood. just been listening to adele. her album is just amazing (and she provided the amazing title lyrics)
maybe i dont have much to say coz ive been lost in photography, i love those pics that just take your breath away but they do put me in a wierd mood!
have a great weekend x

i never wanted anything from you except everything you had and what was left after that




i love these pics. that first one is just magical.
i currently have some big music obsessions. eminems new song not afraid is just amazing. its really tuneful but still the old eminem with his heartbreaking lyrics. its quite a beautiful song.
another amazing song is ellie gouldings new single guns and horses. its quite slow and her voice just sounds amazing. its about wanting to take her boyfriends pain for him (but i wish i could feel it all for you) another really tuneful song
and to keep in with the slow, beautiful, tuneful music theme, im also obsessed with paolo nutini. his song candy is amazing and my lovely friend bought me the album which i adore. its perfect for a long car journey, just a good slow album but it doesnt put you to sleep! it made me crave a cup of tea if that helps explain it!
im now on study leave and im finding that florence is actually the best music to work with. im not sure why but shes just perfect to listen to while doing my chemistry!
just wanna say sorry in advance coz im not really gonna be able to keep up with all your amazing blogs at the moment. just bear with me and in a month and a half this will all be over! x

its only been a week but i know that you are mine to keep





wow these pics from federico erra really dont reflect my mood. theyre really beautiful moody pics and i love them! so lets talk music since we havent in ages!
the title lyrics are from darwin deez (what a cute name!) who just makes some really cool music. hes like the indie version of jason mraz. he just makes some really cute, fun music. really summery and pretty.
also loving the pretty reckless which is a newish band with jenny from gossip girl (i cant remember her real name now!) their music is just good addictive pop but it has a bit of an edge. i like it!
also loving nirvana at the moment. i love the energy. i love you kurt cobain! do you know he died on my birthday?!! like on my exacy date of birth as well!
ohh im listening to muse now. muse is proper genius. supermassive black hole is just so clever.
so my study leave starts tomorrow! im so excited! im basically breaking up from my school now and next year im gonna be in a different school for a levels so its all very exciting! have a great weekend x

alabama, arkansas, i do love my ma and pa but not the way i do love you




i love this collection of pics from felicity byrne because it reflects my mood perfectly. each picture is beautiful but doesnt really go with the next and i sort of feel like that. different feeling that dont really go but somehow they do. does that make any sense?!
it doesnt matter coz im feeling happy today so this weird combination of feelings is good!
the title lyrics are from home by edward sharpe and the magnetic zeros. im still obsessed with it after literally months now!
hope your all well and enjoying the bank holiday weekend! and if your not british then we feel bad but not bad enough to give up my lie in! cant wait! x
p.s. just wanted to say happy birthday to beth rubys blog! i have tried twice to leave a comment but blogger cant 'deal with my request'!! so irritating but don't worry beth ruby, im still reading and enjoying your amazing blog!

i got it all yes its true so why dont i get you?





so thanks to fashion tidbits for this award. isnt it pretty?! anyway i have to write 7 things about myself so im gonna try and make it stuff you might not know about me:
  1. i am really loud. i have a really load laugh, a very load voice and i scream a lot. im normally the loudest girl in the class and the one who comes up with the immature jokes. yep thats me!
  2. i have two cataracts. although youve probably never seen a picture of me you dont anyway notice them until i point them out. i was born with them and i have to go to the eye hospital every now and then to check out that theyre not blinding me but otherwise im totally normal (well not quite normal but i have normal eyes)
  3. friday is my favourite day of the week. another thing you dont know about me is my timetable for school. friday is the best day lessons wise but also coz its the last day of the week
  4. another school related random fact-i love IT lessons best. theres nothing i like more than sitting in front of a computer. typing is just so relaxing, maybe thats why i blog!
  5. okay some proper info about me. im 16, i have one brother, one sister and two parent (haha) who are divorced (not so haha!) im totally not bothered or emotionally scarred from my parents getting divorced. i still believe in soulmates and all that.
  6. i love lists. i think you might know that already but i love the neatness of them. how everything falls into place. i am sort of freakishly neat about somethings such as my folders on the computer (i have a folder for EVERYTHING!) but i can be really really messy about other things such as my locker in school. it just is never neat however hard i try!
  7. im a talking sort of person. i have a theory that everyone is better at either talking or writing. some people write amazingly and really properly express themselves through the written language while i talk way better. maybe its just coz i like the sound of my own voice!

so that is 7 (very long) points. i want to pass this award on to j-face because he managed to write a whole 100 facts about himself while i found it hard to write 7. check out the post here.

so thats all from me. if i dont post tomorrow have a great weekend and yes tomorrow is friday my favourite day of the week! x (photography by clayton cotterell, title lyrics by simian mobile disco)

i think we're superstars, you say you think we are the best thing but you, you just know, you just do



today i think im gonna let the pictures do the talking. after such a long post it feels right to have a short one. the beautiful title lyrics are from the xx and the photography is from roberta ridolfi. just enjoy the photography, i love these pics so much x
p.s. i forgot in my last post my all time favourite break up song which brings me close to tears everytime i hear it which is kind of ironic considering the title dry your eyes by the streets
