a little bit of crude cheekiness to spice up a sunday...



Nope this is not some low budget porn film.... it is what happens when my boyfriend and a few of his friends find female clothes alcohol and a camera....

This dear bloggers is an unexplained male trait that when coupled with a fair amount of encouragement from each other, dancing around like hilarious loons seems the perfect idea, makes you worry a little doesn't it.

The Slightly Unordinary

So as we wave farewell to Year 11 and on to new (and hopefully better) horizons, there was really only one send off which needs to be noted. Prom, here are a few photos from our sometimes glamourous, mostly not so glamourous prom. 





and now for a whirl-wind summer, filled with wok's of woe, camping craziness and musical wonder!

I scream for icecream...

I guess to any of our avid fans, (I may of course be addressing no one here) you may have been following the handy little timer counting down the days till S and I's summer freedom and if you have been watching closely you may now know the time has come and the world of exam halls and indeed compulsory education is now behind us!!
Celebrations have indeed been ensuing with leavers prom last night - an excuse to dress right up and in my case get sprayed oompa loompa style for an evening of less than delicious school catering but definite hilarity (pre-prom drinks were key to the fun).
Not only formal celebrations but mini self congratulations were needed so, without the need to squeeze into a prom dress, I threw caution to the wind and splashed out on a tub of good ol' Haagan Daz ice cream... nicely polished off in its entirety in approximately 10 minutes flat..... but when you have cause for celebration there should be no opportunities wasted!
Ice cream binges or mad drunken dancing, I say we deserve it!

Plaits of procrastination....

From the designers who brought us lucky fashion stalkers the only place to shop for florals, Erdem have upped the style stakes by bringing not only the most feminine of dresses (no doubt you too are cooing at this red beaut below) but with the wispy romantic halo plaits to match, it seems summer (for those who can afford the price tag) is sorted.


From festivals to beaches its safe to say the plait is 2011's hair saver, sweeping up those sun kissed locks and taming stray split ends into a woven halo. Though it looks pretty effortless, i may hastily add my first rather shoddy attempt below did take a long while to twist into place but with a whole summer ahead of me, who knows i may master it... eventually.

Superficial Love and Non-Existant Rapture

So, where was it? This doomsday prediction which swept over the world in under two weeks, causing many believers to sell everything and repent? Well we all, come six o'clock on May 21st sat quivering in our boots anticipating our untimely end. Then we realised that, half an hour later we really weren't going anywhere. Awkward. I made a mix in all the excitement - link in the side bar.

Sorry for S&I's absence recently, you might be aware we're in the midst of our GSCE's, which means that most of our free time is spent revising, or in my case, re-discovering sims 3.

About 50% of my time has also been spent obsessing over this man,


and these items... 





happy half term!

Egg Yellow Nails, New Shoes and Morning Blues

numerous water bombs, flour fights and locusts later the last day of year 11 has come and gone, and we are thrust into exam season. A day so incredibly sad considering i have been waiting for it forever, and i'm going to be returning for sixth-form, But still with out my beloved star, who is travelling slightly further down the road to Prior Park. Well here are a few snaps of my saturday spent 'revising'...


Nail varnish inspired by my lunch and spring and all that. (barryM)



New shoesies, for prom!



and a saturday morning self portrait. Revision = grumpy face.
I have created a new mix (link in the side bar)

So I probably should get back to the books seeing as star&I along with thousands of other 15/16 year olds across the country have our English Language Paper 1 exam on Monday. Wish us luck!

something we haven't done in a while - song of the week!
