hey,
Hope everything is okay with you all, I'm feeling pretty sorry for myself as I have a really bad cold. Not only is it making me feel rather horrific, but it is eating up my revision timetable too, my exams start in 4 weeks (insert major freak out here.)
That means in about 8 weeks school is all over and it I will be starting the next chapter in my life at Kent, providing I obtain the grades of course. And to do so, daddio has told me to consider how often I go out around my exam period, or as it was really intended, YOU ARE NOT GOING OUT. Next Saturday is my friend's bday and also my last chance to go out apart from things with family (a wedding and going to see Coldplay, the same weekend WOOHOO), which I am pretty gutted about to say the least. But to be honest I am happy not to go out as  I do want to revise and do very well in these exams, even though I will have good times when I do go out, like a hangover it will soon pass and be forgotten, unlike my exam results which will linger over me in regret if I do not live up to my own expectations. I also know that to others that  my dad may seem like a bit of a slave driver at the minute, and sometimes I do too, but I do thank him for it because I know that he only wants the best for me. And my dad is one of the main people I am afraid of letting down.
As well as giving up my social life I have had to be rather distant from here lately, which I have been saying from around Christmas I know, but I honestly can't help the work load that I currently have and where my priorities lie. So until my exams are over, you are more likely to catch snippets from me from my brand new twitter, so if ya wanna give me a follow and I will follow you back!

uhoh moustache time!

I bought some moustache transfers from eBay last week, as soon as I saw them I knew I had to buy them! So last night whilst having nothing remotely 'interesting' to do, I thought I would try them out.  Firstly I wanted a pale pink nail, however had none at all so I mixed a white and a darker fuchsia together,  then after that I cut out each of the transfers. They come on a card type transfer, a bit like the tattoos that you used to get when you were younger and transferred over in the same way using water. Although this didn't secure them to the nail, you have to make sure you use an ample amount of coats in clear nail varnish (TRUST ME), this bit was quite fiddly, but I think it was totally worth it! What do you all think?
