bet shes delighted when she sees him, pulling in and giving her the eye, because she must be fucking freezing scantily clad beneath the clear blue sky



so im back from prague! had such a great time! its really the last time i was with my whole class like forever now coz next year im gonna be in a new school, a whole new class... anyway just had so much fun running around the hotel at 3am and touring around getting a great tan! went to some really beautiful places and just saw so many other tour groups. lots of fit guys!
anyway back to music. i havent really been listening to music for the past few days coz i dont have a ipod (i hate having earphones in my ears and not being able to hear whats going on around me) and there was no radio in the hotel but as soon as i came back i straight away turned on my radio! i came back at like 1am and i never normally listen to radio at that sort of time but there was some great stuff on. just some genius remixes of great songs. so this morning on the radio, the presenter was like 'and next up some eminem an the killers.' i was so excited coz eminem and the killers and probably my two favourite artists so heard not afraid by eminem and when you were young by the killers. later on they played when the sun goes down by arctic monkeys (title lyrics from there). i used to be obsessed with that song and id forgotten how good it is.
so have a great weekend. im gonna be doing lots of shopping this weekend for france! primark here i come! x

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 im a little bit lost without you, and im a bloody big mess inside



these photos are by someone called dusdin. no idea who the person is but arent they gorgeous? especially that second one.
anyway im back from gibraltar so heres a list of the things that have changed about me
  1. my age-i turned 16. yep its very exciting! now i can legally drink in gibraltar! the legal age for drinking is 16 there. how ridiculous is that?!
  2. my eyebrows-my lovely auntie came to gibraltar who i havent seen for a year and she threaded, plucked and cut my eyebrows! they do look amazing now!
  3. my skin colour-my friend said i got a bit of a tan! but anyway ive decided since i wont get a tan here in manchester, i am now regularly wearing tinted moisturiser and bronzer.. i look so tanned its amazing (and not orange!)
  4. my radio listening-in gibraltar the only radio i could get there was spainish radio so yeah i really enjoyed listening to music in a different language but it was a bit strange. they also played lots of english music so it wasnt too wierd!
  5. my writing-it seems not writing for two weeks has made me start writing like a real teenager using exclamation marks all the time!!!!!!
  6. my phone-well this is something i hope to change. ive had my phone for a year now and im planning to go and buy a new one with all my birthday money!

so now youre updated have a great weekend! hope youre all well and thanks for the lovely comments on my last post! x

because maybe you're gonna be the one that saves me


i just received this award which is very exciting coz i think its my first award! check out her blog here. anyway i have to write about 10 things that make me happy so here goes:
  1. music- so much music just puts a smile on my face. im normally into quite depressing stuff but my favourite upbeat artist at the moment is plan b. i just love what he's doing.
  2. my friends- especially my friend rivka who is just off her head (in a good way)!
  3. food- sorry its quite shallow but honestly having a piece of chocolate makes my day
  4. radio- i find it so hard to go a day without listening to the radio. my radio is just always on and if im on the computer then i'll listen online. im just obsessed with radio 1!
  5. beautiful photography- i love inspiring pictures. i love those pictures that just make everything look possible. its hard to explain the affect of photography, its just magical..
  6. my weird family- my family are just mad but thats how i like it! some people have such normal, non-embarrassing families and i honestly feel bad for them!
  7. boys- yesterday i saw the boy my friend has/had a crush on. yep he is fit!
  8. fashion- i love dressing up in new interesting styles. yesterday i wore a top with a vest top on top with a black skirt and some grey jeans underneath and my lovely converse. im definitely repeating the outfit! it was so comfy and had this really cool casual look.
  9. blogging- writing an amazing post is always so exciting and reading other peoples posts that are amazing.. i just love it!
  10. comedy- i love a good stand up to watch when im feeling down. i love russell howard, he is hilarious!

have a lovely week x

youve been acting awful tough lately, smoking a lot of cigarettes lately, but inside youre just a little baby

i saved the picture above under the name 'tattooed beautiful boy with cig looking beautiful and lost' and i saved the guy underneath under the name 'smoking shirtless beauty'. i think that says it all!
can we just talk about how genius i am to find this lyric?! how well does it go with the photos?!! i was just listening to marina and the diamonds and i heard these lyrics in her beautiful song i am not a robot and theyre just perfect for the gorgeous photos.
i dont normally like male models but i do have a folder of the male models i think are just damn right beautiful and these two are just amazing. i dunno what it, maybe the tattoos or the beautiful 'broken but dont give a shit' look. does that make sense?!

okay lets talk music:

im still totally obsessed with glee. its just immense and just makes me smile so much! just writing about it gets me excited!! oh im a sad old soul!

im currently listening to the skream remix of in for the kill by la roux. its all dubstep and beautiful. oh i love it!

other bands im loving are the virgins, the drums and this morning i heard mr brightside by the killers on the radio: it was an epic moment singing along with a hairbrush while halfway through getting dressed so i was wearing my school shirt with my pj bottoms and my hair in one big curly mess! theres something amazing about hearing a song you love on the radio even if you have the album so could listen to it at any time. its those first few notes, the big adrenaline rush, is it weird i get adrenaline rushes from the killers and not from roller coasters (i hate roller coasters with a passion)?
sorry im so bad with writing posts. i try and keep up with all your blogs but i dont really have that much time to write. i was writing my english AS coursework with my friend and just coming up with total examiners porn (explanation: writing an essay that is so beautifully written and quoting all the right quotes if i dont get a good mark for this essay HEADS WILL ROLL!) For my essay im analysing an article from Grazia which is just wonderfully written and even has a reference to Florence (yes THE Florence from florence and the machine)
so it is time to leave you beautiful people once again. im going to london on monday on a school history trip just for one night but i cant wait to tell you all about it! x

dont let go, never give up, its such a wonderful life

this is a montage/collage (what the hell do you call it?!) from the bbc website. i think ive used all these pictures but they look really cool together.
so i thought for this post i could go through the top five of the 'bbc sound for 2010' list. so here goes!
  1. ellie goulding-i just checked out my blog and i realised that ive never written about ellie goulding so heres a first! she won this title and i do love her music. under the sheets has really grown on me and she is the one new talent (except marina) that me and my friend agree on. i just love how soft and beautiful her music is. its like snowpatrol but softer and more dance sort of music. i guess shes more electric than snowpatrol. ellies music is really made to fit the dance genre but snowpatrol is more acoustic and about the guitars and shes about the tempo and everything. her music is a bit dubstep. and that was me trying to explain an artists sound! i really am crap at explaining just check out under the sheets!
  2. marina and the diamonds-heres a singer i have talked about before and i just love her music. shes like a modern kate bush doing pop. what a beautiful voice and her lyrics make so much sense but they are very clever. oh i just thought of the word to describe ellie goulding- electro pop. so back to marina, i love all her songs but one of my favourites has to be i am not a robot. marina makes some great music videos so check those out on youtube. she just has lots of fun with the music videos, i love it when artists do that. i think it was cornerstone by the arctic monkeys when all you have is stupid alex turner (hes a cool guy just hate his hair) just singing to the camera for 4 mins. hate arctic monkeys for that! the killers also make amazing music videos. right back to our list..
  3. delphic-i dont know a lot about them but doubt is just a great song. they really make such beautiful music.
  4. hurts-i LOVE this band and i only know one of their songs but its just beautiful. i know normally the title lyrics i use are very depressing. actually i cant remember when i used a happy title lyric but this title lyric is from hurts and its just beautiful. their song, wonderful life reminds me a lot of dont give up by kate bush and peter gabriel. they are both about not giving up and staying strong. they were both also made for a time of recession when people want to just give up. i love songs which have a strong message.
  5. the drums-ive just got completely obsessed with their song lets go surfing. maybe its to do with the snow! im getting quite fed up of the snow and someone told me its gonna carry on like this for six weeks. six fucking weeks! i hope its not true

so thats the top five. i looked at the full list but the rest i havent heard of except that stupid daisy girl. her music is dreadful. i hope it doesnt do well coz then it will always be on the radio and i do not wanna hear it.

so if youre bored check out these artists or go to cinema and watch sherlock holmes coz its amazing. such a fun film to watch cya x

i love the way she fills her clothes she looks just like them girls in vogue





this is my favourite model anna selezneva whos done shoots for vogue and was on stockholm street style (the second picture down)! shes just got such an interesting face and body. shes all tiny and beautiful and has the most amazing arms and cheekbones. she is only 19 but has walked the catwalks of chanel, dior, YSL and valentino! discovered in 2007 in McDonald's, she was whisked off to paris and has been working non stop. shes so unique and has such an interesting look, i can always recognise her which i can not say for some models who can get quite boring and all sort of merge into one.
i find in a way i can relate to these models although im 5"5, i am a uk 6/8 and ive got quite a boyish figure with boobs that are exactly like models. half these models dont wear bras and you see their boobs and im like those are my boobs! im also quite confident and dramatic however i dont envy them coz there arent any models who come out of a modelling healthy and happy and anyway im too short to be a model.
i do think being a model is for people like anna is by mistake. if someone came up to you and said you were beautiful enough to be a model you cant really say no i wanna be a psychologist. also you have to think of the money i mean imagine how much chanel pay!
so love to know what you think of modelling careers, i just really wanna work on the radio! thanx for all wishing me luck for my exam. it wasnt easy and i still have another one on tuesday but then im done with maths (until next september for the a level)! x

rebecca, you'll be missed my girl wasnt for the treasure youd be rich my girl

wohoo! look a song about a rebecca well actually 5 rebeccas. 5Rebbeccas is a song by the view which i only just found tonight by accident! but its so exciting coz there are so many songs with girls names in but this is the first song ive seen about a rebecca although the title is spelt weird. i dont know any rebeccas who spell their name like that. whatever this is just such an exciting moment. i feel like ive just won an award!

id like to thank my mother for all her support, radio 1 for introducing me to some great music and as jack dee wrote i would like to thank myself without whom this would never have happened!

thats quite a good speech even if i say so myself! good night my beautiful readers and no i am not drunk! x

radio 1

just a quick post to talk about my love for radio 1. radio 1 is a radio station (98.9 FM) which you can tune into in the whole of the UK or you can listen via their website which there is link to on one of my lists at the side! they play mostly new music during the day but if you are into up-and-coming artists then check out the radio shows after 7 especially nick grimshaws show(a fellow Mancunian!) from 10-midnight every weekday night. check out their website for details. also they always have great coverage of all the festivals which i love!


my favourite DJ is Sara cox who does the weekend lie-ins! she has such a gorgeous voice she could get a job doing those haagen daaz adverts! she is also, despite eating all the time, absolutely gorgeous! i love radio 1!
