Long Time No Blog

WOW. Weeks, months and even seasons have changed since my last blog entry. What happened?!? I just don't know! 

Anyhow now that that is done with we can get to the interesting stuff. 

I have decided to change the format for this blog post so you can really see what pictures go with what writing! We have a LOT to get through! 

Last time we spoke I was just starting my summer and was about to board a flight to one of my favorite places on earth, MALLORCA. 7 weeks of sun, fun, friends! What more can a girl want? I love going to Mallorca and every year struggle to come back home to reality and normally the rain! And this year was especially hard! Lazy days filled with sun bathing, days out on the sea and always laughing. It’s hard to let go of when the time comes. 

In the middle of my trip to Mallorca we had a little break for one reason or the other. My brother and Dad are avid hunters so jumped at the weeklong break to go shooting in Austria. The girls in the family where less keen on this idea and so decided that this was the perfect opportunity to get some well earned cleansing for our bodies. 

Off to the SHA Wellness and health spa it was. Now I will be the first to openly say healthy eating to the extreme and exercise are not my cup of tea to say the least! But since we where in the middle of it all and well I could definitely do with a healthy lifestyle injection I jumped into it fully! And you know what... I was wrong! It was actually thoroughly enjoyable and I have never felt better! Most days started with a healthy breakfast (Small! All the food portions where tiny!) before your first spa treatment. Each day you pretty much went from the spa to the sun lounger, gym and meal times. Not a bad way to spend a day really. All the food was macrobiotic which took some getting used too and with every meal came a interesting selection of tea.... mmmm. 

Next Stop PARIS! My smarty-pants sister managed to bag herself a 1st class honors from Oxford university and so as a surprise her adorable boyfriend took her to Paris to stay in her dream hotel. Hotel Costs. And what good friends would we be if we didn't tag a long? We packed our bags and our best surprise shouts and off to Paris we went! I love Paris and all it has to offer! (Besides the language. I speak no French. None.) The weather was unbelievable that weekend! We spent the majority of the time walking around with cups of coffee and croissants taking in the sights and the weather.

After Paris life returned back to normal, I had to get ready for Uni one last time (WHAT?!) and prepare for the change of seasons. Bye summer hello autumn. Dark nights and cold days! Yay. 

Still, a little bit of summer is what the whole year is all about...

SUMMER

TWO MONTHS! How has two months gone by since I last posted? 
Wow time flies....Since my last post so much has happened! I finished my second year of uni! YAY!  but with finishing Uni came leaving my house and my housemates! 
I have Loved living with them all this year and cant believe I wont be doing it again next year! *sob sob sob* 
I went on holiday to Barcelona, saw friends, started work experience and welcomed a new future king! 
Lets start with Barcelona. It was incredible! so much history and art in one city! me and one of my closet uni friends took a 4 day trip tot he spanish city and filled our every minute with sun, booze and culture. I can not describe to you how beautiful  the city is, everywhere you look everything is by a different architect! The Gaudi that over runs the city is spectacular! Everyone its a must see! 
After my little mini break I started work! 
I am entering my last week at a production company in London. I have loved the month that I spent at work and am so grateful for the opportunity I was given. 
Once I finish work.... ITS OFF ON HOLIDAY I GO! I am SO excited to get out there and have already started my holiday preparations, there is a surprising amount that needs to be done before I leave the country for 5 Weeks!

STRESSED

I have exactly 14 Days, 2 hours, 5 minutes and 40 seconds till I am finished with my second year of university and to say I'm stressed is an understatement. It sounds so geeky but i really want to do well! I have never been a 1st student but a 2:1 is what I really want and hope I can get!
I have 2 exams and an essay which I am doing currently. Its like drawing blood from a stone.
The whole of my house is really tense and stressed at the moment with all of us having different things to accomplish before we are free. 14 days. Just14 days.

WISH WANT McQUEEN

Oh my God, I want. It all. Scrolling through the A McQueen website in a faze of procrastination and stupidity, my mind just goes crazy...there is nothing I don't want. Nothing. Fortunately for my bank card it is all so far out of my budget its ridiculous. Ill just have to keep dreaming...

Its no secret that I love the sun, and by love I mean LOVE. Living in England I generally I miss it everyday. Having just returned from South Africa where the temperatures would reach in the high 30s daily coming back to rain in April England was depressing to say the least.
This week summer, and the heat that comes with it, have been on my mind. 
I love everything about summer! No work, endless days and warm nights, friends and family around all the time, no rush to be anywhere and the obvious endless opportunities to tan. 
My mind has been wandering with all these pleasures this week. But of course non of this would be possible with out the prefect wardrobe... which brings me on to my other favourite pleasure and pass time. SHOPPING, Internet shopping. Just ask my house mates. Looking through the new spring summer collections have just got me dreaming further.... ahh summer....

TRAVEL

As some of you readers will know I leave to go on holiday today! woohooo
AFRICA here I come. When it comes to flying however there are some things that I just can't board a plane without. 
1. Face cream. I love the Bobbie Brown Hydrating face cream, it gives your skin all the moisture it needs while not making you look greasy, and it soaks right in! 
2. Eye shades. Especially if flying at night. No matter how low they dip the cabin lights, nothing beats complete darkness. I love this silk one which I got from the white company. 
3. Ear Plugs. There is nothing as annoying as a crying baby or airplane buzzes when you are trying to get some shut eye. I use The silicone wax ear plugs from boots cause I find they give you the best coverage. 
4. Layers! I don't know why but I ALWAYS get cold on planes! An extra hoddie, scarf and socks are always useful. My cashmere socks from the white company are my weakness along with a light cotton scarf, I am obsessed with the Alexander McQueen dragons and birds scarf at the moment, but my bank account would not forgive me if I gave in to temptation. I never leave for the Airport with out my oversized grey Nike hoddie, the perfect thing to put on when the air con is blasting. 
5. Last but not least. Sunglasses! if you are gonna be landing somewhere sunny or not, sunglasses are so useful! they an hide your tired eyes from the harsh airport light of just add something else to your flying outfit! I am obsessed with my new Elizabeth and James cat eye sunglasses.

END OF TERM

TWO WEEKS! That is it. WTF... Where has my entire term gone?! wow. I am loving the prospect of the Easter holidays but the end of term is whipping my ass. Its like the whole university has got together and decided that to just let us leave would be mean and to easy.. so we have to earn it! 
I have 3 deadlines all in for the same week. And no motivation to finish them. Me and my housemate dragged ourselves to the library to "get something done" with not much success today.
Whenever I go to the Library with the aim to spend a long time I have to have: 

1. Sparkling Water. I has more of i kick that plain water but with 0 calories! Winning! 

2. Orange Juice. Sometimes water just wont do, and this new Tropicana has half the sugar and calories than normal juice! 

3. Cashew Nuts. A great little snack when water and juice wont cut it and you have reached your limit. 

4. Headphones. No matter how silent a library is meant to be. They aint! headphone allow you to control what goes into your ears and more me aids my concentration.

To all of you who are going through the same thing GOOD LUCK! Ill see you on the other side!
