I wana know what happened to your boyfriend - Cos he was looking at me like Whoa...

My beautiful sister Belle got her results today! This is her blog! She's amazing and I wouldn't have made it through the past year without her! She is the best sister I could ever ask for, and my best friend. This is our last adventure together at Leeds this weekend before I leave for Uni! IM SO EXCITED! We went shopping today, I'm half packed, i've got work tomorrow and then it's train timeeee with my best ones! I have a feeling this weekend is going to be actually amazing! In my favourite place with all my favourite people! What more could I ask for... Here's some of my pictures from Leeds festival 08/09. I haven't felt this happy for about two years, and it's amazing, Happiness is so underated....










I hope Philip Batey doesn't mind me posting a picture of him on here! But I wouldn't be me without him either. I miss him!

all my love

I'm afraid of a lot of things, but i aint scared of loving you...

Haven't blogged for a few days! been insanely busy. Livvi leaves for america on Tuesday, I'm going to miss her so much. Last night was her leaving party and it was really lovely to see everyone, and tonight is final goodbye's until Christmas! It's crazy how fast everything is happening! I've started packing I leave in just over 3 weeks. I can't sit still for excitement i've averaged about 3 hours sleep a night for the past week and don't feel tired at all! This morning I went to sleep at quarter to six and got up at nine, and i still don't feel tired! What's wrong with me!


Right now I am insanely excited or Leeds festival it's going to be amazing can't wait to blog all the photo's! I'm going to take a disposible camera, get the prints devoloped and see how it comes out! Today I'm looking for job's, hopefully at the o2 academy in Leeds, there's so much to do and plan for! i can't stop listening to the yeah yeah yeah's at the moment, especially the first album, I just think no one really compares to Karen O as a front woman. She's brilliant. I've been saving for a while now for my tattoo's, me and my sister found a brilliant blog called Tattoologist, the pictures in this post are my favourites. I'm still undecided on my flower tattoo that I want on my foot. but i definitely want 'behaving as the wind behaves' along the top of my inner arm. Take from my favourite poem 'The Hollow Men' it means alot to me. These are a few of my favourite tattoo's from the blog. The first one is where I want mine. Can't wait to get it done...
















On a last note, that's probably true! Love is so weird, It amazes and scares me at the same time that no matter what some people do to you, you'll always love them. I think it's good to be honest about love, people are too scared of it sometimes. I think I've been in love twice.. but I don't know why people say 'been' in love because I don't believe you can fall out of it really, if you definetly love that person. I understand why people say 'if you love them let them go' because it's messy and people get hurt. Or maybe people shouldn't take it so seriously. Who knows... just a thought

you have a face for the radio... but I know you'd like to see it in a show

Sorry I didn't blog yesterday but I was farrrrr too busy celebrating! i'm off to Leeds in less than a month and i'm bloody excited! I got two a's and two b's an I have no idea how but i don't care! Last night was brillant apart from being drowned in foam by callum and rich in walkabout and looking like a drowned cat but I was too drunk to care! I've been at work all day and it was so quiet and boring so I made lists. Lots and lots of lists. I enjoy making lists, they make me feel organised and also it is very much needed as i forget everything!

This was my list today

1. blog
2. decide what im packing to leeds
3. do my washing
4. sort stuff out for Livvi leaving for america
5.do more yoga
6. job hunting

I like this list however no doubt I will have lost it by tomorrow morning and i'll make another one...

Here are some pictures of some lovely ladies that I think are brilliant









one day I hope I can as successful as these!
I think I'd like to be a front woman one day... and throw myself around, I'd like that. infact...

7. Join a band when I get to uni



all my love

I got a date with the night...

because I most certainly won't be sleeping - but not in the sense that Karen O was singing about i'm guessing! It's because tomorrow is results day and I am TERRIFIED which means that there is no chance of me falling to sleep easily tongiht! I am trying to keep myself busy to take my mind off things. I've been at work most of the day which was alright, and read my book on the bus. There was a quote in it that said ''I know it is not an excuse but it is certainly a reason''. That made me think a bit really, because I hate it when you genuinely don't know why a person has behaved in a certain way and no matter how you think it over in your mind you cannot come to a conclusion. I myself have done things that have made me think 'why the hell have I done that' and you try and explain it to someone and they say ''well that is not an excuse'' and previously I could not think of any come back to that. However it is possible to have reason to do something and not have any justification for why you have done it. It's times like this I wish I listened to my mum when she tells me things, because she is always (unfortunately) right. Like when she tells me to work hard for my A levels because I will regret not doing so. I can't help but think I could have worked a little bit harder for my grades, but it is too late now. I think I will have done well, because I did work really hard , however tomorrow we shall see!

Anyway enough of my senseless rambling! I like having a blog because no one can tell me to shut up! Or that I'm chatting breeze. I have a few pictures for you little treats! ( Well the few of you that may or may not be following me ). These are pictures from my favourite films, the first one being 'An Education' which I think is quite appropriate for my situation at the moment and also has a wonderful script. Also because I am immensely jealous of the clothes Carey Mulligan gets to wear - she is such a pretty little thing!

What are your favourite films? Also if you could pick a character to be for a day, from any film you wish, who would it be?

I simply remember my favourite things... and then I don't feel so bad

"Your fingers upon by back connecting the dots. Drinking tea out of the freckled cup and waiting for you to come back home. Waiting for there to be a home outside of this one. Keeping warm under white sheets. Wanting to be closer than science will allow us."

feeling free


countryside adventures


festivals


hiding away, camping, being with friends


walks and thinking


my cats


barcelona


days and nights in the city and feeling at home


my bestfriend, my sister and picnics


my best friends


train journeys


lie ins


lazy hazy days


the beach


reading


playing guitar and music

my morning coffee

notes, lists, kisses and feeling loved

Freckled Cup is a project to showcase the beauty of people, light, warmth, colour, lack of colour, skin, touch, mountains, exploration, and most things in between. Most of these pictures are taken from 'Freckled Cup' artists, and a couple are not.
