3rd Year

Well, I've been silent for a long time now, and it's killing me. 

An update is necessary.

So, the last couple of months of 3rd year has a been hard work, lets just say that. To be very honest, I have been very lost for last couple of weeks and still trying to find so hope out their like Pandora, I'm praying its out somewhere and I'll stumble across it very soon.

I'm currently writing my dissertation 8, 000 - 10,000 words... YAWN. My title is, 'Are we moving away from the size zero culture?' The reason why I wanted to write about body image, was really down to some of my friends and some research that I've come across recently, discussing how they aren't comfortable within there body, I'm included in this. Women constantly putting themselves down saying that, 'I'm not good enough' or 'I wish I was pretty'. The problem is with the two M's. MEN AND MEDIA. These two things combined together are recipe for disaster and make us feel awful about ourselves... and that's not what living is about. I know I'm one to talk, but I sick of being negative... Positivity and Progression are my key BUZZWORDS for 2011. 

New Day, New Life.

Clogs

TK MAXX/£17.99

      ZARA/£129

Ok, so I know I'm a little late on the clog craze, tbh I wasn't a fan when they were arising onto the scene, the thought of walking on wooden plank, didn't phase me at all, however, I made a venture to my nearest TK MAXX in Epsom and stubbled across these little jems, which also have a sole padding for my tender feet and are very comfy to trot around in. As you can see the pair of the right, from Zara are obviously better quality material and ridiculously expensive, as always I opted for the cheaper version. Really need to stop doing that, but hey that's just me all over.

The photo above is very bright and they give of a 'tacky' vibe to them, which I kinda like it. Everyone needs a bit of tackiness in their lives. Haha. Live it.

My favourite pair of shoes of June.

                                                                    HAPPY FEET :)

from US to CA

5 sleeps until my flight to CA (Canada) for 3 week adventure to the East Coast of US, travelling to Buffalo for a couple of nights, then onto NY for some fun & frolics, then Boston to see some basketball and thrift it up, then up to Montreal from some French lessons and to hook up with an old friend, lastly to Toronto for some sight seeing to head back home. This journey is just the start of the summer, which I am very psych for. I'm travelling with one of my oldest & bestest frands, Tree Jones, who I can not live without. I will take thousands of photos to update you all with and make you green with envy.

Wile Out.

Placement Galore

Being a student, I'm able to participate in placement that allows me to have 10 weeks within industry taking part in something I would like to do when I finish University. I have decided to do a couple of weeks at an Events Company and Fashion Enterprise. These next couple of weeks will be an exciting opportunity for me to experience the unknown and be apart of a something spectacular. Exciting.
