So today I have been stuck inside trying to finish my personal statement and organising my hard drive with has about 10 000 ridiculously jumbled up photographs on there! It was hideous, however in the process I have started updating my flickr which hasn’t been touched in an age so I have had a slightly productive day. Now I’m off to the boyfriends and then work, cry!

Iconic Eyewear Posters

I posted one similar so long ago here and then I found these beauty’s. I think Ghandi’s is my favourite, they also remind me of The Beatles.

////This probably wouldn???t happen to an Elizabethan manor house but then brutalism ??is different. ////At least its fucking better than New Brutalism, she said. //// This book was so different from anything ive ever read in the past, particularly so from an Irish poet, that i couldnt find any category for it but think the poetry of brutalism is the nearest genre name i could think of for it.

bru·tal·ism
A style of architecture or art characterized by a deliberate plainness, crudity, or violence of imagery.

Tate Modern 22.11.11 



*This was before we started our journal project but I felt it was relevant to add.

Friday I’m in Love (on a monday).

I’m currently all snuggled up listening to Tegan and Sara after just getting back from the boyfriends house, I really should be preparing for my assessment which is next monday but I’m not in the mood at all. I’m quite excited combined with being rather chilled. We’re off to London town tomorrow (again!) However this time it is to look at exhibitions and art galleries (in the form of the Tate Modern and the Design Museum) rather than universities. The last Made in Chelsea is on tonight! I don’t watch too much television however this is definitely my guilty pleasure along with hollyoaks and This is England, last year it was ’86 and now its ’88 this christmas!

I’m a very inconsistent blogger but then that just mirrors my life in general. I can’t remember the word my Dad used to describe me but erratic is close enough. I went to London yesterday with a few friends from college, in conclusion I don’t want to go to University in Kingston, let alone central London. I’m a country bumpkin at heart so the beach is a perfect compromise for me. Brighton and Falmouth are my top choices so not aiming too high or anything. This revolves back to today, thursday is my day off from college so I can do anything I like however my personal statement needs writing. I’m awful for putting things off and I’ve been dreading the time when I actually have to sit down and write 4000 characters about myself. I’m having my hair cut at 2.30 so thought I would pop down to Thornbury before to run some errands and have a quick charity shop. My hair is in awful condition at the moment so I’ve ordered some vitamins online which are meant to improve the quality and some cream which is apparently meant to quicken growth - I’m a little skeptical of this however  I still need to collect these from the post office aswell as printing some pictures for fine art and having a little hunt for a silver ring or two in some charity shops. On this note I should really get out of bed as I’m being very lazy so that is all for now.

Christmas Time.

Few abstract images from a recent film.

It seems all too early to be thinking about christmas but my family are overly organised and have nearly finished all their shopping, ridiculous! So its time to make a list for Santa baby.
- A new phone, preferably an iPhone but definitely not another blackberry 
- A small simple watch, maybe with a black leather strap or gold? * Got one from a charity shop in the end.
- Perfume, something with a pretty bottle that smells lovely 
- Film for my polaroid (it’s ridiculously expensive, cry)
- Vintage-y & pretty underwear
- New extensions? Or just an idea of how to sort out the current state of my hair
- Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation 
- A chunky silver ring with a stone (to replace the many rubbish costume ones I own)
- Frilly ankle socks 
- These moccasins My Dad and Liz are getting me these now. 
Aswell as photography & fine art books, sketch & notebooks, pretty stationary and general quirky char type things. All in all I feel very demanding.
