20th July

A bit of a sunset from tonight. We're supposed to get lots of sun next week for a change, going up to 28c, which i'm half and half happy about as it's nice to have some sun and it not be grey but heat + lou = moodyness.

19th July


Pickle! I love these photos (Yeah i'm boasting!) He looks so cute though, which he is :)

18th July

Some philip philops. Bought from someone on a community and they are a little tight but I tried to sort that out by undoing the stitching a little. They smell of smoke so bad though, I wish people would say when they sell stuff and they smoke. They might be used to it or notice it, but it's sickening when it's on your clothes..

17th July

Grapies in a arty way with my toaster blurred in the background.

16th July

Some fruit and cheesy type scones & plain and fruit cupcakes I made for some family.. All look very tasty although I didn't get to try any of them. Boo ;(

15th July

Sososososo pretty, but a little too big, I will work my magic on it to get it too fit. I will I will!

14th July


This is what happens every 2 or so weeks when I get behind on doing this blog! My writing is not normally that awful by the way, I was scribbling

My cat and her huge ears. They aren't this big really but don't they look huge in that photo? Radar ears!

12th July

Flight of the Conchords are fabulous!

If any random person somehow stumbles across this blog and reads, I highly doubt it though but hey you never know. Well I won't because I turned the comments off, but anyway, I digress. Look them up on youtube.

They will change your life and make your world a much more smiley happier place, I promise you!

The funniest duo i've seen in a while :D

And also, if he reads anymore, my one dedicated reading may notice something in this photo to bring back some fond geordie memories!

11th July

Sent the cashback off for my lovely camera, so hopefully soon, they will be sending me some monies back. Should be about 45pounds if all goes well!

Thought i'd post this here so if it does mess up, I can remember when I did it

(I'll probably forget otherwise!)

10th July


Pinky pink nail varnish, which at first glance I was a little unsure about (my mum bought it for me) but when on, it's like a hot pink colour which is what I've wanted to get for a long time, and it's one of the few nail varnishes which didn't come in the bath or while washing up after just a few hours of painting it on.

(Nail varnish literally peels off my nails in one go, no idea why)

9th July

This is about the best photo I could get of Pickle lately, he's been a bit shy and I haven't been able to take a good photo of him with the new camera. It's too big to put in the cage.

8th July

Just a birdie sitting on the grass, he just sat there for ages. He is a meanie though because he scares all the other birds out the garden.

7th July

My sister brought some clothes over to sort through for charity shops and what not and this in Cleo getting in on the action. She never likes to be left out.

6th July

Random photo but the strawberry was a weird shape! It wouldn't stand up properly to take it how I wanted it too though..

5th July

Cute mo mo. I haven't taken photos of her for a little while and this one is not that good because I had to use the flash but she's a little fidget!

4th July

Such a crappy photo but there you go, or something. I think I was just laying on my bed watching tv or something.

3rd July

The cute kitty again, I can't resist posting photos of her :)

2nd July

A workout dvd, which is fun to do actually. A little more upbeat and fast past than some i've tried in the past.

But should not be attempted when injuried as it will make it worse

:(!

1st July


Kitty cat cleo being cute.. although it's rare that she'll sleep on my bed or chair as she has taken to sleeping under my desk. Maybe it's cooler down there now it's starting to warm up?

30th June


Finally photos from the garden. I took a few hundred, I've actually taken nearly a thousand in the month of having the camera! The majority are just playing around with it, but still that's a crazy number..

29th June



From Sunday, with the kit lense. The sun was alittle better today and I felt I was learning more from yesterday so I like these ones :) It would have been great if the background in the last one wasn't black as then the bee would have shown up better, but you can't win them all. The kit lense was much better too, as it could get more up close, so I think that's better for outdoor photography and the 50mm for indoors

28th June



I played with my lovely camera in the garden over the weekend, there are lots of pretty flowers out there so these are a few that I took on Saturday with the 50mm lense.

27th June


Another lip gloss, I can't remember the name of it but it's lovely again. A little darker but very pretty on the lips. There is a more lilacy colour one too but I wasn't so keen on the look of that one :)

26th June

A better photo of my new lense. I love how the background goes blurry and the main thing is in focus, it's all about the depth of field (I'm slowly learning!)

25th June

Yummy lipgloss! Glmaour magazine had a deal where you could get free benefit lipgloss with their magazine in June. Three different shades but the magazines sold out super fast because the lipglosses are worth 13pounds each.

(Most ended up on ebay though, although funnily enough no one made money because so many people did it!)

I bought this from someone on TSUK, only paid the extra for postage and it's lovely, tastes like watermelon and looks very pretty on the lips.

24th June

I have a photo for today but it's on my phone and I can't find where I put the bluetooth dongle. It's around somewhere because I only used it a few days ago.

23rd June


Curly Wurlys are awesome. Especially when you eat one and then another one! (Piggy Lou) It's wrong to eat them straight out of the fridge because they are hard and now chewy but if you leave them out too long, they go soft. It's an art trying to guess the right eatable time.

Shut up Lou.

22nd June

Jan the Dutch lion didn't bring luck to Holland as they lost in the Quaters? And Spain won in the end. Evil spain and evil Torres!

21st June

A lovely blue day over the beautiful Middlesex!!

20th June

A grey cloudy day over the beautiful Middlesex.

19th June

A new lense for my camera. It's good for indoor photos as the f1.8 lets in more light than a normal lense and makes the photo brighter (So I believe) I got it off ebay too with a Hoya filter which is good as Hoya are the best brand, and it has been very well looked after.

I thought it would be a good purchase as I'll probably be using my camera more indoors learning how to use it.. I didn't know whether to get that type or a zoom lense but maybe the zoom one can be a christmas present :)

18th June

I passed my child psychology course, with flying colours. I'm amazing, yes I am. Well at least I think so.

17th June

Aw this is so pretty. I got it from Accessorize with some vouchers I got for my birthday. It's more pretty than the photo gives it credit for!

Way to big though so I've had to do some DIY to shorten it, I love it :)
