My Darling Buds of May.

10 Things

1) I cannot help but giggle when a child at school says ‘I hurted my willy’. I just can’t. 

2) Most people will end up disappointing you, so don’t be too hopeful. 

3) At school, I was told by one parent that another parent thought that ‘I had no charisma’. Thanks. 

4) I really love goat’s cheese. 

5) There’s a hair brush that’s been on the floor in my bedroom for about two weeks now. I need to pick it up. 

6) I have discovered a new found love for Brixton. I had a goat’s cheese crepe in Brixton Market and fell in love. And I love Morley’s. 

7) I watched The Great Gatsby last week. Not sure what I think at this present moment.

8) I keep having the same dream. There are spiders spinning webs around my bed or ‘baby bats’ crawling on my skin. 

9) I turnt 22 last month and oh my god it feels scary. 

10) I should do more of these, I just keep forgetting. 

I could do anything right now, go anywhere, be anyone. Yet, I want nothing more than to hide away under a duvet and pretend the world doesn’t exist. 

Life.

1) I can’t sleep, because I slept in a very dark and quiet room last night and didn’t wake up until 3pm. And if it wasn’t for my mum talking so loudly on the phone, I doubt I would have woken up. So now it’s 2am and I’m watching My Name Is Earl whilst Keeping Up With The Kardashians uploads. 

2) I have officially finished university. I got a 2:1, thank God! I was soooooo scared. It’s all over now, (graduation in September). I miss Goldsmiths, turning up in the afternoons when my lectures were in the morning. Drinking shit coffee from Loafers, eating Thai Green curry from Thailand across the road. I miss it all :( 

3) So I’m applying for an MA! In English Lit. Maybe go into teaching or publishing…something. 

4) Time is FLYING by. I can’t believe I’m 21, finished university and now I have to do something with my life. It terrifies me. 

5) Morocco soon :) 

6) Anyone who is living in the UK will know how dreadful the summer has been. It’s just pissed down and I even wore a coat the other day. Fingers crossed for a scorching September!

7) My beloved bestie took me to Field Day and then I went to Lovebox the following week.  I had the most amazing time, it was perfect. 

8) I was shaving my leg and tore some skin off, it’s scabby now and I want to peal it off so bad. 

9) I tried to go on a diet, I even got an calorie app and jogged in Hyde Park. Lasted a day, literally. 

10) Raaaaaamadan this week! 

So here I am in my black PJs with a whole load of gradual tanner on, smelling weird and watching Mad Men whilst I eat houmous and cucumber. I am in love with Jon Hamm, he reminds me so much Patrick Warburton when he squints. 

I’m beginning to hate everyone and everything. 

How can I say hello (and I smiled) at one of the managers at work and he literally looked straight at me, tutted and walked off?! Not the first time, it’s happened like five times now. These bitches need a reality check. WHAT IS HAPPENING TO HUMANITY? Hurry up real job so I can leave this hell hole. 

10 Things.

1) I finally handed in my final essay on Monday, thats a total of 9000 words over two weeks. I nearly died. 

2) I only have university on Tuesdays this term. This means I cannot moan about deadlines in April. And I can sleep in on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.

3) I HATE Tresemme hairspray. It made my hair flakey and brittle. Back to Elnett. 

4) I ordered The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, When I was Five I Killed Myself and Girl, Interrupted. Can’t wait. I need to finish The Little Friend first. 

5) I’m so happy I picked Gender Theory as one of my Anthropology modules. My lecturer is amazing and it’s so interesting.

6) I love Pop Tarts, I have one left and I’m saving it for tomorrow. 

7) I missed my friends a lot over Christmas, I only started seeing them properly this week and now I’m happy. 

8) I ordered a new 2012 diary on Ebay. I can’t wait for it to arrive, goodbye battered Moleskine hello new diary! 

9) I bought Mac’s Mineralize Skinfinish Natural and my gawd it’s amazing. The stupid Mac girl did try to sell me the darker one, WHY?! Can you not see through those hideously clumpy false eyelashes? What is it with Mac and recommending the darkest foundations/powders for the lighter skin? Anyway, she was crap. I demanded a Medium and it looks lovely. 

10) Personal statement time for MA applications. EEEK. 

Work. Blah.

So I worked all weekend which wasn’t as bad as I thought. Apart from my feet killing me by mid afternoon. I like the girls I work with, they all seem really friendly. I got to do my first full face of make-up on a girl today, I was so nervous and worried she’d absolutely hate it. But she loved it and I got to chat with her mum too. A nice way to end the weekend. I’m getting the hang of this ‘applying make-up on someone else’ thing, but the only thing that I cannot get my head around doing proper is mascara. I find it really difficult, I keep getting mascara on their eyelids. Or the wand only coats the top of their lashes and not the root? Anyway, I’ll practice on my mum tomorrow evening. 

Good mornings.

So I fell asleep last night at like 8pm and woke up this morning at 5:30am. WEIRD. I don’t have work today so I’m not sure what to do, I’m in bed drinking coffee and wondering what to actually do. Bearing in mind I’m quite poor right now I can’t go shopping, I need to exchange these boots for a bigger size and go to the Post Office. As much as I like to sleep in, there’s nothing better than waking up super early and getting shit done ya get me? 

Oh and I officially start my new job tomorrow! I’m a nice mixture of excited and terrified at what to expect. One of my woes is how crap I look with flat hair (BOOHOOOO) so I’m going to rebel against the system on my first day and back comb, curl my hair and see if anyone tells me off.
