15 minutes


HELLO!

It's nearly 1:00am , 'We found Love' by Rihanna has been on reply for a couple of hours and I'm wild awake doing Uni work.. ahhhhh! I'm sooo stressed out!
I'm half way through but, as i get one of the tasks done, i find out some more information and i have to go back to rephrase or even re do something!

I've been at home for the whole day today. I'm always indoors on Wednesdays and i love it because i just hang around this massive house in Kent in my Pyjamas.
I'm a lazy girl, if you hadn't noticed :)

Anyway, I'm on my 15 minutes break- hence the title of this post- ( i always give myself breaks when doing work for a quick fag and a cup of green tea) so i thought " why not upload something on my blog" and yes i have done it..
The pictures below were taken with my Macbook because i left my camera in London last week (I'm not vain, but i love taking pictures, even though I'm not photogenic. Ahaha !)
Bye for now.

Keep smiling
Linda

Clothes whore !


Blazer- Charity shop
Shirt -Primark
Shoes- New Look
Nail Polish- Primark






Easter is getting closer, yeah ! that means two weeks off college and then study leave-yuppy yay-, but it means that exams are coming up too!

To be honest I am not really worried as I will be doing only 4 exams compare to others that are doing like 8/9 ! Ohhh Goshh !

what is worrying me at the moment is my media studies coursework that is due on Monday ! Now, this is really stressful !!! why?? well, i have to write 2000 words on the silly topic that my teacher gave me which is Cannabis, okei fair enough we all know that cannabis is illegal etc etc but what else is there to talk about ! arghhh ! and why does my teacher assume that i will know about it just because i live in South London !

On top of that, I have to produce a magazine, which means i'll have to use photoshop AKA the most annoying and complicated software !


Anyway i just need to put more energy into it because i know i can do it- i just wanted to complain about it .. LOL-



although 'i am stressed' i managed to buy some hot bargains as you can see...

and my friend has also taken some measurements for the dress she's making me so you'll soon see that too !



P.S : So, remember in the last post i was saying that i had too many clothes?

Well, i found a solution !!! no no ! don't worry I'm not talking about stop shopping forever...

just bought a double rail et voila' !





Keep smiling

half term is finally here ! it's weird how i waited for this week for so long and yet woke up at 8am this morning! i guess I'm used to waking up early for college.
my room is exploding with clothes and i think i need to buy a new wardrobe because i literally don't have any space left for my new bargains.
yesterday my sister begged me to go to Westend with her as she wanted to get some high waisted shorts from Beyond Retro and i wanted to get a turban. Although BR had amazing things as usual, we came out both empty handed, which was very disappointing. However, the sadness went on for just 5minutes as we still found things to buy in high street stores. When i came back from shopping my mum said "you need to stop buying clothes and shoes, there's no space in the house !"
i know there is no space, but I'm sorry shopping is a must in my life ! ahah !
PLANS for the week :
1)Revision
2) Overtime at work (more money =more shopping !)
3) Shopping
4) Family time

13.02.2011

Buying my own things without asking my mum for some financial help makes me really proud of myself and makes me feel a little independent.
This week is the second week of the month and i am already broke, however, as I'm quite good with saving money i managed to to get few things and all for under £50 !
Most of them were bought in Primark which is always underestimated as the quality of products is not always the best.
let me just tell you guys that Primark has now the same clothes as many high street shops and the prices are getting a bit higher which suggests that the quality is also being improved.
when i tell people that some of my clothes are from Primark they get shocked and normally say: "but where do you find them? because whenever i go to the shop all i see is chavy stuff"
...and my answer is always the same.. "you have to look around the whole store don't just limit yourself to the first section by the entrance, because it is never that flattering"

P.s : Primark has improved but don't buy all your clothes from there as it might become too obvious ...
