and his alarm went off to wake him but he didnt make it to the rap Olympics left to his plane and he missed it



dont you just love hayley williams?! i just love the girl. paramore's new single careful is great. i could listen to paramore all day. anyway these pictures are all about airplane coz im just obsessed with that song as well as the jay z remix of xxxo by MIA.
so a bit of new music:
  1. monarchy-love get out of my way. ive loved monarchy for a long time now and this song is just great. quite indie and fun.
  2. pulled apart by horses. i love this band coz they just scream but in a weird way its very therapeutic! this summer im really into dance music but i think this winter i might start getting into rock. its a genre that ive only really scrapped the surface of.
  3. middle east- the darkest side. cant remember how this song goes. i just remember that its very indie and just gorgeous. im so crap at research!
  4. broken bells-the ghost inside. cant really descibe it. just amazing! very indie and just this great laidback sound.

and that is a very random mix of stuff but i think monarchy is a one to watch although my predictions are normally wrong! however i did say holland were gonna win uraguay and they did! cant wait to the world cup final! x (title lyrics by eminem from airplane. how great is the concept of rap olympics?! do they actually exist? i hope they do!)

I wanted freedom bound and restricted, i tried to give you up but im addicted






the title lyrics are there to explain my addiction to beautiful colourless photos since every post (bar the last one) seems just to be in black and white.
at the moment im just so busy. ive got loads of coursework and the school show is in less then three weeks! i do love doing the show but its dead stressful!
did i tell you about my new leggings? i dont think i did but anyway i got these new denim leggings(i hate the term jeggings!) and they are so comfy. normally i just wear ankle socks through the winter and occasionally tights but ive decided not to freeze this winter so its in with the legging and not really out with the ankle socks coz i still wear them!
i swear ive turned more boring than my grandma! so lets talk music! (in bullet points. i think better with dots)
  • this band called tulips were on the radio last night and sounded really cool. i definitely need to check out some of their stuff if i have a free minute so if youre bored then check them out for me and tell me what you think!
  • i realised this morning that young forever by jay z is the perfect song for new moon or actually any of the films in the twilight saga. next time you hear the song just listen out for the chorus and listen to the lyrics. theyre just perfect for twilight!
  • i love love love the 3oh!3 song with katy perry. i cant remember what its called but its just so good! me and my friend just love these guys coz they take themselves so seriously and theyre such idiots!
  • and lastly i heard the mariah carey song this morning ( which one i hear you cry? the all i want for christmas one you idiot! actually i shouldnt insult my dear readers. look i think of you guys as friends enough that i dont have to be superficially nice. actually i was never superficially nice!) so yeah back to the song. it actually hate her but that song just puts me in such a festive mood! i cant belive its already december!

so that enough from me hopefully ill post again soon. good night x

let's get out and smash any dreams of love



i am back in manchester and looking tanned! this holiday i have truly been doing nothing except watching tv and reading all kinds of crap! so ive got loads to tell you guys! lets just do this in numbers otherwise its gonna go on forever

1. i know i should totally get over them coz they have been out for AGES but i am still lovin supernova by mr hudson and run this town by jay z. mtv dont play very good music and its all very old but hearing these songs, it was so exciting, the opening chords.. !!
2. i actually hate tv but there wasnt really much else to do so i was watching americas next top model, the hills, laguna beach and of course tons of vh1.
3. i read two very different books. i read plain truth by joudi picoult and it was very interesting and well written. its all about an amish girl being accused of murdering her baby. also about babies, i read heartbeat by danielle steel which was just a cute romance and it had a surprisingly simple storyline. not a great book but just beautifully mindless.
4. today taio cruz did a cover of little lion man which if you read my blog alot youll know i m totally in love with that song and the band mumford and sons. anyway the cover was actually really good so check out the interview and performance here. love to hear your opinion on it

so hope youve had a lovely weekend, im back to school tomorrow!! i dunno why i did some exclamation marks. i should have ended the sentence with a ;( or :(. thanx for the lovely comments x

her cds changer full of singers that are mad at their dad






i do love my hair coz of how thick it is but now, having it short, i have to straighten it all the time and also because my hair is so thick i cant get a fringe so it is quite annoying!

so big news!! i am off to gibraltar tomorrow for about a week and a half! i am very excited to get to wear my flip flops coz i never get to wear them here in manchester! i will try to post when im there but i will have to go over to my uncles which is a bit of a pain so i will probably do only like 1 post. im so excited for the beach! hopefully ill get a bit of a tan but we ll see!
so onto music since i seem to be posting about everything but music at the moment!

1. im a big fan of forever young by alphaville. theres an amazing video of oc clips with that song in the background and its just so beautiful so when i heard the song by jay z and mr hudson young forever i got so excited! i love it! the original is definately better but if you dont compare it to the original then its actually quite beautiful.

2. example is finally in the charts with watch the sun come up which is just such a beautiful song in the same way as sweet disposition by temper trap. just reminds you of a summer love.

3. currently touring with florence, who is actually finishing her tour tonight, is the xx. their music is just really beautiful in the similar way to the songs i mentioned just above. i seem to be really into these sort of slow, sweet songs!

so hope you have a great week and you can follow me on bloglovin so that as soon as i do post youll know. bloglovin is amazing.... good night x

take all the courage you have left wasted on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head














just a load of random beautiful pictures i found from various photographers. im really into photography at the moment. check out this blog for beautiful photos. i have found out the band that i was mystified about in my last post. they are called mumford and sons and the song is called little lion man. another beautiful song of theirs called feel the tide can be found here. just addicted to 99 problems by jay z. im constantly singing that as well as the just jack lyric 'one egg, two toast, three weetabix' i love songs that discuss food! i imagine just jacks next song will be a song of his favourite food, i cant wait! lol! anyway love to hear what music your into at the moment and have a wonderful weekend x

ive really fucked it up this time, didnt i my dear?


this picture is just beautiful. im in awe of these people that stockholm street style find.




so im desperate to get my hair chopped off. all these girls got their hair cut off and look amazing. im not sure i have the courage. right now my hair is past my waist and im so bored with it so ive booked my appointment and i will tell you exactly what happens when it happens. i would love to show you pictures but i dont have a camera to take them and i really am way too skint to buy one. i especially like the last picture but how cool does keira knightley look?!!

i love this picture. just really explains why kate moss as famous for her modelling as she is and im a sucker for a black and white photo!



so this is lou doillon who i discovered through this blog and she seems to have done some playboy which weirdly i respect her for it. she really is beautiful and she has a wonderful sense of fashion. i dont really know much about her but you dont need to know someone to appreciation their beauty. if you know a bit about her id love to know about her coz it looks like shes had a strange career.

and finally a bit of music news to finish off. jay z and alicia keys have released a beautiful song called empire state of mind and its just really gorgeous to listen to. i forgot how much i love alicia keys voice. just amazing. also i just adore miike snow. he does such beautiful music which has so much depth to it. check out black and blue to understand why i adore this guy so much. on radio 1 they are having some kind of dubstep week and its just so great. dubstep is so good to listen to. i just find it really creative and its so interesting coz you can have dance dubstep or rnb dubstep. any genre can be dubstepfied!
just wondering if anyone knows what song it is that the title lyric is from. ive heard the song a few times but i still dont know who its by. its definately an english indie boy band and the lead singers voice sounds very familiar so if you. know leave me a comment or if i find out i will tell you have a good night sleep and a wonderful friday x

some sad news


i am leaving you. im just going to say it straight! i am leaving the wonderful blogging for a whole 6 days (me trying not to be melodramatic is like a fish surviving out of water ie its never gonna happen!) i am off to see my dad who lives in london and i am very excited. im going to the theatre, camden market and oxford street and possibly other shopping places. i love shopping and my dad is willing to take me. im quite excited as my dad is taking a few days off from work but a few days im just gonna go around london by myself which is just so cool. i remember last time i went and i just went to oxford street by myself then came back and let myself into my dads flat and i just felt so independent. thats something i am so grateful for. coz my mom hates shopping i have been shopping by myself for a long time. i got a debit card when i was twelve. thats the great thing about having divorced parents, you really have to be independent.
so abit of music to listen to:
  • okay you know my florence obsession. just check her out. legendary.
  • la rouxs song quicksand is my new obsession even though its quite old. la roux is just amazing and so talented.
  • lily allen is so talented and she has come back with an amazing album.
  • pink has just got the most gorgeous sexy voice. its amazing. im so desperate to have a voice like that. id do anything for it.
  • calvin harris has got some amazing songs out at the moment namely ready for the weekend
  • the streets-fit but you know it. just heard it on the radio and its so cool. the lyrics are so amazing. amazing is my new favourite word.
  • nelly furtado. shes just done that flo rida song jump which is decent but i love some of her older stuff like maneater.
  • run this town. im sure youve heard so much about this. its a monster! jay z, rihanna and kanye west. it cant be anything but amazing and they really dont disappoint with this killer of a tune!
  • check out the goo goo dolls who are just amazing. they have some new stuff but iris is still my favourite. just beautiful music.

so thats enough i think if you find any good music then tell me about it and btw i may be able to do my blog from london but im not sure so if not bye everyone. have an amazing week without me! x
