Love is a Four Letter Word

 ^^^ this is what I would look like if I was in an indie movie. 

 I was reading this zine and I came this list of 15 reasons why valentine day sucks

except well these e-cards are quite funny

Today's outfit was very cutsie which is strange, the dress is from etsy but its slightly big so I might sell it. I'm also wearing awesome cream lace tights from primark and red velvet shoes from urban outfitters. My book The Lion in Love by Shelagh Delaney arrived today and it couldn't be more appropriate because the first act takes place on valentines day. I can't wait to read it. It looks wonderful. 

I made a valentines playlist because I've got to do something with all this free time, the playlist is full of oldies and it's more upbeat than usual so enjoy.

Photo Diary: Rosa

Is it just me or has January felt like a lifetime. I'm ashamed of how little I've done this month. Its so easy to hide away in my room and watch the snow fall. I've decided that I want to take more pictures and create some sort of portfolio. I really love photography and I think I need something in my life that gives me some sort of satisfaction. The only resolution I have kept this month is my promise to start a notebook. I intend to start experimenting with collages, I think it would combine my love of pop culture and... glitter

I will dedicate my life to replicating this outfit ♥

Photo Diary: January Blues

Sorry for this boring life post but I've been feeling a bit disillusioned lately. I hate January. It's too cold to wear a dress and it's too dark to take pictures. I spend most of my time in my room reading, reflecting and listening to music. It's becoming quite boring. I have a feeling I'm going to be let go from my job soon (I work in a video store) I think this little comic strip from a zine I've been reading sums up my life at the video store. Just replace the word book with dvd...

This worst thing about not having a job any more (besides the money problems) is having to look for another job. Interviews are so humiliating :( I finally got around to applying to colleges. I applied to Edinburgh and Glasgow to study Computing with Web Development so fingers crossed...
I ordered a new camera yesterday! It's a Nikon D3100. I couldn't afford a more advanced camera but it's ten times better than my current camera so I'm happy. I can't wait to get it and take some pretty pictures :) I keep thinking of how I'm going to spend the next twelve months. I've got nothing planned and nothing to look forward to. So I took some action and bought two journals to help me be a bit more creative.

I'm thinking of using the pink hardback as a sort of inspiration diary with pictures and playlists and things like that. I love the second journal. It looks so gothic and witchy. I've started using it to keep a track of films I need to watch and books I need to read. I press flowers in between the pages sometimes too.

The first page of a notebook is always so difficult. I gave up trying to think of something artistic and just created a playlist appropriate to how I've been feeling recently...
