do you want the truth or something beautiful? just close your eyes and make believe...





i dunno whats inspiring me to use these pictures today. probably the cold. its snowing! it started on thursday and right now im looking out the window and big snowflakes are falling. theres something beautiful about snow falling but because its manchester and all good things have to come to an end, the snow will turn to slush by tomorrow or worse it will all freeze and the road will just turn into an ice rink. thats what happened last year and i was slipping and sliding to school!
so the title lyrics are from paloma faith. she did do you want the truth live for radio 1. check it out here. its really beautiful stuff and she does sound amazing live. also her outfit is so cool!
also florence did a cover of last christmas which is just immense last year and you can hear it until christmas but only if your in the uk so definitely check it out here if you can! i love florence! i think i should change the blog name to I LOVE FLORENCE!
loving all your comments at the moment and i will try and be better at checking at all your amazing blogs. i love the holidays although i wont really be relaxing since ive got exams in janurary but at least i can get some kind of lie in instead of waking up at 7:3o every morning. its such a killer in the winter which reminds me im currently loving the killers first album hot fuss. its so experimental and interesting and brandons voice is just so beautiful.
have a lovely day x

look in my eyes, youre killing me, killing me all i wanted was you


doesnt that feel so long ago? i feel so far from summer right now wrapped up in my dressing gown thinking about getting up to make a cup of tea.
sorry about the depressing title lyric. i dunno what has come over me. its just to deep into winter to have a cute title lyric!
just listening to pink live. she was on the chris moyles show on radio 1 so im listening to it on the iplayer coz i was in school! love her! she has the coolest talking voice. her and kidsister both have the best american accents. i dont normally like an american accent but they should do a song together coz it would just be really beautiful.
my hair is looking amazing today! its just gone all curly with lots of body, it l0oks like something from a l'oreal advert!
at the moment im debating whether to buy a camera or a great pair of jeans. the camera would mean you could actually see me but a great pair of jeans would just be such a good investment. this pink concert is just immense check it out here about 2 and a half hours into the show (i dont think you can hear this if your not in the uk but im not sure)
okay i think im gonna do my nails now for the weekend. how about black this weekend?
love you all. have a great weekend and i cant wait to tell you what i actually end up buying! x
ps if you want to listen to some beautiful music then check out the big gig in the sky by pink floyd. just such a beautiful piece of music cya x

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

i pull up thorns from our ripped bodies and let the blood fall in my mouth






the lyrics are snowpatrols from their second album. i was very excited about this lyric when i bought the album two years ago coz i was going through this whole stupid emo phase and its such a dark lyric and song and is called headlights on dark roads. definitely check out that album. it really grew on me and was really my album for last winter.
the pictures are to go with the lyrics so very vampirish and dark. just very wintery. all my posts seem to be about the weather at the moment! im so boring!
so whats been happening in my life:
i watched desperately seeking susan which is so amazing. i cant really describe it, its just amazing in that classic way that could never be replicated.
im currently eating cookie dough ben and jerrys and its pure heaven! its buy one get one free at sainsburys so we stocked up on ice cream and its just beautiful.
i dont feel like you guys know me that well so i heres a random list of stuff about me:
1. i have cataracts in both my eyes that ive always had. i was just born with them but they dont really bother me so i havent got them removed
2. im such a massive britney fan. i dont think i talk about britney on this blog enough. shes not my guilty pleasure coz i just dont believe you should feel guilty about what music you like but i know she is for a lot of people.
3. im in love with the name alfie. i checked out the meaning on wikipedia and it means something like one who is couseled by elves. my friend doesnt think its a good idea to have a kid called alfie coz there are like no normal alfies. im still sticking by my love for the name at alfie. im very stubborn about matters like this.
4. waterloo road is on tv tonight! im so excited! im actually hate tv but there are a few things i have to watch every week like mock the week
5. im thinking of cutting my hair really short like rihanna style.
6. my parents are divorced. did i ever mention that? its so unimportant to me coz they got divorced so long ago and it was such an uneventful divorce. my dad just moved out and went to live in a flat and they got a divorce. neither of them was dating anyone else and they both havent got remarried and i love only having one parent. my dad probably wouldn't let me do half the things i do but because he doesnt live with us he doesnt really tell me off or anything. he did used to try but then when my grandad died he got really depressed and since then he lets my mum have the final say on everything. i love having divorced parents and btw i am so mot traumatised by it all like everyone presumes i am.

so thats a long post! sorry once i start i cant stop! have a good night x

im beginning to think i imagined you all along...






im so in the mood for winter at the moment! its just really exciting! i love black and white pictures soo much so above are some of my favourites at the moment. i especially love the rihanna photo, she is just soo amazing!
btw what the hell is up with kanye west?! he gets on my nerves, he just needs to get over himself. he is a genius but hes totally ruining it. im sure youve heard this a million times so i will shut up!
also i realise im not too great at reviewing songs. im just not very good at describing music so i wanna give you a link to the radio 1 chart blog which always gives amazing reviews so you can check it out here.
just want to say congratulations to pixie lott on the no. 1 with boys and girls. its a great song and the charts are just looking SO much better at the moment! have a good night x
