Greeting our friends from across the pond.

a pretty poor man's attempt at an American-themed outfit, but an attempt none-the-less.

This is my friend Lauren, I stole this photo from her facebook, because I'm a theif, but I'm sure she wont mind because my intention is good.

Lauren is the most thoughtful person I think I know, I dont think I know anyone who talks about themself less, and others more, and in that way, she is very selfless.

The way in which Lauren and I know eachother is strange, and I do not judge people for finding it unusual in the slightest, but Lauren is, I believe a great testiment to the fact that something good usually comes from something bad.

I love our letters, parcels, facebook chats, skype meetings and late night FRIENDS you-tube sessions.

I pretty much think she is pure good.

(I know it sounds like i have a crush, but, well, who cares?!)

The time has come for all the fun and games to subside slightly as a new semester begins.  i wish i could find the perfect balance - sometimes at uni i have out-of-control fun, (see above.) and sometimes, i feel ever-so-lonely. (see me right now)  i'm looking forward to finding a happy medium and discovering where i feel just right.  if that ever happens. sometimes up and downs are fun. and you probably can't have the highs without the lows. so. that's that really. i'll just be a middle man for a while longer.

Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want..

..and what I want is YOU Luella LBD

confusion is a disgusting thing that should only be reserved for those who deserve it.

I wish you never existed.

i want everything to look like the sixties.

January.

I have just deleted my New Year's Resolutions, after re-reading them, i realised that although they are all probably acheivable, i'd have to be a super woman with heaps of time on my hands,  so instead, i prefer the idea of monthly goals, or resolutions, because I like the idea of feeling as if i have acheived something and as much as i love ambition, in this case realism is probably more fulfilling.

So without further ado, January Goals:

1)  Hand in an essay I am proud of, revise hard for my exams.
2) Cook dinner for a friend
3) Get photos printed and make a wall collage.

one of my favourite feelings is when you hang out with friends and tell them the odd thoughts that hang out in your brain, and then they admit to thinking them too.  then you realise that you are wierd, but your friends are wierd too so it must be ok. i would hate to hang out with people that didnt have thoughts.

A bit of extra cheese as an afterthought -

"It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about." - Dale Carnegie

I love this photo that Christian took at Camber Sands, perhaps even a year ago to the day.  It seems to fit this quote perfectly, I'm not sure if he'd like my editing much, but the whole thing reminds me of listening to The Beatles and Conor Oberst and having a good friend with equally good thoughts and ideas.
