Going away to college

So, if you follow me on my other social networking outlets you are likely to know that on the 15th of August I recieved the A Level results I wanted (AAB) and will be going to The University Of Sussex in September to study Philosophy and English. You will also know I am EXTREMELY excited about it. One of my friends told me not to romantisice it too much but it's all I can do right now. I have turned into Carey Mulligan in An Education.

Dallam 12/02/12

slept over at ashleys in dallam with abi/sammie/emily/jean/hollie, went to get the bus with sammie in the morning and on a detour to find ourselves a creme egg for breakfast, we stumbled across some really cool empty buildings next to the corner shop. since i had my camera on me, it felt rude not to take some photos (and then mess around with them until they hurt your eyes)

I am an art lover, and a music lover, but mostly i'm an aesthetics

lover. At the Lisbon Design Museum, i nearly burst with joy. Literally. I was hyperventilating about perfect dresses and tables and chairs, everything was RIGHT. I think maybe this obsession with aesthetics is what makes Tumblr and Flickr so appealing because its like a constant stream of goodness. So, i thought i'd just do a trawl for some of the most aesthetically pleasing images and post them here, for when i next get Design Withdrawal Symptoms. 

These images are from this Flickr featuring lots of perfect scans and stuff. 1970s childrens interior design from a book called Sunset Children's Rooms & Play Yards.

hello blogspot, its been 283 days since we last met and whilst youre on my mind i thought i would do a catch up although the chances are no one will read this, or care, and i will probably not update you again for another 200 days or so. events of note: the proper end of isobel harrops boy story 1.0, the nicest weekend on earth with the corduroy club (see here), a zillion gigs (12 to be exact), a festival, new friends from all over, college started and isnt too bad. english lit is really good. i just want to cuddle gatsby and nick is dreamy. i went to portugal and wales in the summer and they were both lovely plus i got my gcse results and they are o.k.a.y. things are looking up in i.h land with chips in the train station, dancing to all my favourite bands (slow club on the 15/12 and maybe allo darlin next feb.) and a whole gaggle of most brilliant friends. i cant ACTUALLY recount everything thats happened since my last post but you could visit my tumblr and have a look through my archive, if you are genuinely interested (however unlikely.) you could also have a look see at my last.fm, my 8tracks and my flickr. even my twitter if you want to be kept up to date with my exciting life AKA when i am lay i bed at night or when i'm waiting for the bus/train. maybe i will come update here again when my film camera is developed? that seems like a good time to come back. see you then blogspot xxx
