Last week in pictures...

Or, the times I remembered to bring/use my camera.

1









1. This was taken on Monday morning. The light that was coming through my room looked peculiar in a beautiful way, and I loved the effect it was having on my (thin shitty) curtains, so I decided to snap a shot.

2. Just the clothes I wore to bed that night, but taken from my windowsill r.e. the aforementioned lighting that I spoke of.

3. Lasagne the stray cat has now been officially BANNED from our house after he MAIMED MY FACE on the Tuesday night. I was picking him up to let him out of my door, which is normally something he is fine with to the point where he mostly purrs, but on this night he decided to stick his claws right into my lower eyelid, quite literally 1cm or so away from my eyeball. If he'd got the tiniest bit higher I would have been blinded so I'm grateful! It's left a tiny mark but I'm still pretty pissed off about it. If it was on my arms or my chest for example I wouldn't care because you can cover those areas up, but your face - that's something people have to see everyday! Not cool man.

4, 5, 6. Last Tuesday as we all know was Shrove Tuesday e.g. Pancake Day! I hope you all had fun eating lots of pancakes! What toppings are your favourite? My housemate Matt made myself and him a stack of them with bacon and lots of maple syrup, and my goodness they were so good! I wanted chocolate spread on my next round by then remembered we only had nutella, which also belonged to my other housemate who was back home in London. Fate is keeping me and chocolate apart!

7. This is a polaroid picture of Matt and myself taken at the Vice Issue Launch Party at Brighton's Green Door Store on Friday night by my coursemate/future housemate Lulu. I love it!

How have you all been? This week spells madness and mayhem for me - I'm heading to my first houseviewing in an hour! I know I can't afford the deposit but it's something to start us off with at least and I'm going to see if I can negotiate the cost of the deposit and such. It'll be nice to meet Matt's friends/my future housemate's Matt and Ellie too. After that I'm going food shopping then will desperately be cranking out my presentation - which is only about 10% done, due Wednesday and my lecturer isn't replying to my e-mails about the content of it! Shit shit shit.
On Tuesday I am gracing London for the day with a University organised trip to Shoreditch, which I'm very excited for. It'll be nice to get out of Brighton for the day and I'm with one of my close coursemate's Rhys, who, through him being constantly stoned, makes everything funny. We have open return tickets to the capital so I'm excited to see what the day will hold for me. Wednesday is Uni all day, and we have another houseviewing on Thursday (the other two got cancelled!), working Friday and Saturday but I am also heading to Jack Beats Saturday night with Matt and some of his friends from home, so that should be good. As I have (attempted to) shown with this post, I'll try and illustrate as much of my week as I can via the medium of photography!

Right now I must finish getting ready and have a quick snack before heading to the viewing. What do you have planned for the final week of February?

P.S. If you haven't already heard of him, check out 'Baths'. I've been listening to his music for months but only very recently have I gotten back into it and I've had the 'Cerulean' album on repeat for a day solid now. Check this out below whilst you enjoy your Monday afternoon, you won't regret it!

Tuesday, 6 December 2011

so today (after watching quite literally 20 powerpoint presentations on photographers, one after the other) i finally made a start on my christmas shopping! i decided to buy for the girls this week (i mean, ladies first right?) who are my mum, amy, rachael, andrea and alycya, along with my chosen secret santa, and then buy for the boys next week, who are my dad, my brother, liam and joe. i went on my own after my seminar and i really enjoyed just taking my time wandering around brighton town, north laine and the lanes at my own pace with my ipod on (jeniferever - choose a bright morning) and the occasional cigarette, browsing and purchasing at my leisure. some of my best purchases were made at (but not restricted to):




i also found some pretty decent stuff in primark for my mum, but couldn't find a decent picture of the brighton store to save my life.
after all of this shopping i rewarded myself with a starbucks, and then met matt for a feast of spitroasted chicken and two bowls bigger than my face of delicious salad at the harvester. food baby? more like food triplets mate.

right now i'm finishing off a 45 minute presentation on 'the peacock male within youth and subculture' and although i've been sat at my laptop for over an hour, listening to destiny's child and diana vickers, all i've managed to do is let the cat out, put some laundry on and pick the clothes up off of my floor. what is my life about?
