A mess of pictures and revision

street performers and musicians in York! It makes the city so much more interesting, and most of them are incredibly talented.

Leggings from Primark, Blazer and purse from New Look, top from Asos and I have no idea where my necklace or shoes are from.

Nice weather means a happy, although not completely prepared, me. It was so hot! Also I dyed my hair purple, which you can’t see because of the lighting, but it is. I needed a change, and it had been a while since I tried purple.

I had taken lots of nice pictures with my new camera, but there was something on my lens so yeah, you can imagine the outcome. Awesome. As if that wasn’t enough, I accidentally deleted all the pictures off my phone. Don’t ask.

Since the weather has actually been decent, It’s made going out for walks with Odie even nicer. I heard it snowed in Norway. Too bad. Well, I might say that, but it’s currently raining here. If it’s still raining tomorrow it’s gonna be awful when I cycle, so I guess I shouldn’t be laughing about snow.

I always focus way better when I work at coffeeshops, because I don’t get distracted as easily. Which might be strange, but it works for me.

This is a summary of the past week. I’ve been revising more than I ever have, desperately trying to cram (mostly useless) information in my head. I think I’m covered on most topics of the first unit in Sociology, but don’t get me started on English Literature. Let’s just say that if I pass, it needs celebrating. Also, as a person who can’t handle the slightest amount of stress, this is not good for me. So far, It’s not taken a big toll on me, apart from one breakdown and loss of sleep. I love making mind maps though. They might not be very useful, but it looks great. I’m trying, and miserably failing, to stay positive when it comes to exams. 7 days to go.

I can’t study without having a break, and Monday means a new Game of thrones episode for me. You might think I don’t get as excited when a new episode comes out because I’ve read the books, but trust me. It’s the highlight of my week. Is that sad? Probably.

Also, if I don’t update much for these next two weeks I’m sorry, but I have to focus on exams. Expect lots of blogging after that though!

 

tattoo

Published March 26, 2014 by iwouldlikeacupoftea

I’ve been talking about getting a tattoo for years, but I had to wait until i was old enough. (well…) I’ve had a few different ideas, but i wanted a Lord of the rings quote on my foot. I would still love to get it, some day, but I was worried the lines would be too narrow and it would look awful after a while. So after a fair bit of debating, I went for my other idea.
For the picture below, I’m sorry if you don’t like blood, but nor do I and its not that bad.

I knew this was a very painful place to take a tattoo, but I wasn’t expecting it to be that bad. I have no words to describe how much it hurt. My pain tolerance is very (and I mean VERY) low, so that experience wasn’t great. I’m so glad I have it now and I love it, but right then and there I wish I hadn’t, haha. Luckily it only took 10 minutes.

Image
Not as bloody anymore, although my foot is still very swollen. I’m so happy with it though. It represents a few things different things for me, but the main one is my dog. She has been my best friend since I was 3 and she means the world to me, so I thought this would be a nice memory to have. Especially since she is back home and I haven’t seen her in way too long!  She has always been so loyal to me and whenever I had a bad day, she would just lay with me and sometimes that’s all you need to feel better. It’s been a long time since I’ve taken a step without being watched by her, and the way she greets me when I come home is priceless. Even if I’ve only been out for an hour, she acts like nothing in the world could make her happier when I come home. I’m not gonna get into a really long explanation of why I got this because no one cares, but I think it’s perfect.

We had our first writing exam in GCSE spanish. We had to write a 200-300 word essay about relationships and the future, and then learn it and write it again without any notes. I think it went alright, but I’m sure I wrote some strange sentences. 1 down, 5 to go! in Spanish, that is.
I also got an A on my last math test (hear hear, teachers who know how bad I am at maths) and am now done with the course. Do you know what that means? No more maths. Ever. Victory!

I have a history weekend soon, which means I have to be in town at 9 am on Saturday and Sunday… 9 am. I can’t do that. I have no idea how i will manage to finish all my schoolwork this weekend, but hey! we always have Sunday night! I might bring my camera since we’re going for a walk around town and learn about the history on Saturday, if I don’t forget. Look out for that!
