Mmm desserts!

I like my desserts. Not too much, and not too often. I like them as treats. I do however LOVE making them lots, and looking at wonderful pictures of them. As my break from work I went browsing through weheartit.com looking at yummy desserts, here are some of my favourites.
The above photo and the three below looked quite similar to me, so I followed a link to this blog, which is omg so pretty and inspiring (did I ever mention I love decorating?), and through her found the original source: Amy Atlas. Loving her. Such pretty desserts and such amazing colours. :)

Thoughts

I think I put myself down quite a bit. Like I keep saying I haven't studied and have done next to no work, but I have done some stuff and am slowly taking in all the equations I need to know, and bit by bit going through past questions, I just feel like I am doing it at a slower pace than others. Maybe it's because some of the people I watch study do more essay based subjects so just reading pages seems like loads of work compared to writing out simple derivatives. (Yeah my maths has been failing so much I forgot most of the simple derivatives...which I found out sounds like the most complicated things to have to know as simple maths for people not so good at maths.)

Anyways, in my last lecture today our lecturer said something about stress being caused primarily by not feeling in control. So maybe I'm not stressed because some how I feel like I am on top of things. Maybe.

I know I think to much, and analyse too much, and talk too much. But that's me, so I'm not really feeling a need to change it. :)

GLEE TONIGHT! Yay. Enjoy your weekend, maybe soon I'll distract myself from studies by finding some inspiring pictures to post here. :)
Toodles.

Make please!

I want to make these please! (from weheartit.com)

Hehe, work is going SO WELL! :P I went to coffee with Sonya and then came home and took refuge in the living room with my computer and TV. :P Tomorrow! Or something like that! Man I do really need to get my groove on! Sure it will kick in soon. :)

Study

I am trying to study...but, urm finding it rather dull. I don't think I love maths that much, or at least not when I have to cram my head full of equations and little things like dx/dt is parallel to the tangent of x...I probably should know these things already but my brain fails at wanting to contain these pieces of information. I did manage to draw a rather cool picture of me not enjoying maths though, making me think about how much I enjoy art thus making studying maths that much worse. Hehe. Go me.
I have managed to confuse myself about what I want to teach, Primary or Maths. Why can I not decide?

Anyhoo, here is a picture of something I was oh so VERY excited to get in my little package from James. :) It's got some pretty inspiring quotes in it too. Will share at some point later! :D
Should probably get back to some maths now...Oh yay!

Picnic

College Day photos as promised. The weather wasn't as pleasant as it could have been, but I think we all enjoyed ourselves. :D Off to a lunch now!

College Day.

College day was alright, not the most amazing fun, the best part was the basketball match and tea at Pats. I will share photos tomorrow or Monday, but in the mean time here is some awesome photography. Richard Fischer.

Happy College Day.

It's College Day today, and it seems like it will be very similar to last year. There is sunshine but also wind and cold weather. We'll spend time sitting around and eating with friends. We will watch people play basketball. :) I am looking forward to a fun, relaxed day. Have to pick my brother up from the train station first...must remember! :P And then we can start with the fun times. :D
I love college and the little family I have made there. :)

Election Night

Was the election day/night/I'm not too sure because the results aren't in yet. :P But we had fun with it. We watched the alternative night on Channel 4 and played a little drinking game. Made politics quite amusing. :) We took quite a few awesome photos. Hehe. They make me happy.
Ooo, yeah and Durham was on the TV! Hehe, we got VERY excited!! :D

A week of fashion.

I'm liking clothes at the moment. :P Probably because I should be studying, but looking at clothes is much more fun! :P I found a link to a cool website that did outfits for each day of the week (forgot to bookmark it so if anyone knows what it is let me know so I can give them credit) and I made a week with my favourites. :) Here it is.
Anyone else find clothes inspiring?

Window shopping.

I love window shopping. I love even more that with the internet I can do it from the sofa! :P Last night I spent some time browsing through asos and daydreaming about clothes. Thought that perhaps I'd share some of the things I saw and liked. :)

Calvin Klein

French Connection:

Kookai:
As much as I love some of these items in my daydreaming, in the real world I probably wouldn't wear them because I wouldn't feel tall and slim enough. Stupid models and actresses and airbrushing messing up with me self-image. I really do want some really cool comfy heels though! I would wear them. :)

Aiming for happy.

To aim for happy I am going to:
  • Remove black nail varnish.
  • Have lunch.
  • Shower.
  • Make my hair nice.
  • Paint nails a nice mint colour.
  • Relax.
  • Buy some crisps. :)
  • Make notes for maths.
Even if I don't do the last 2 I think I should still be happy. :)

Work work work...

Been work work working today, well not quite that much. BUT I have made a break through with my little brain, like it will let me think about studying maths, and as long as I take good enough breaks will let me write some notes and even consider doing practice questions! :O Quite shocking I know!! I ended up not going to any lectures today, was going to go to 5, but it was raining! :P And I felt like I could do more here. :) I am so good at giving myself satisfactory excuses for my lack of motivation. It stops me feeling too guilty.

Anyhoo, that's it from me today. You might get something more exciting tomorrow, or not...really depends on how I feel or what I do. :)

Hi!

We lost our basketball match today. But we feel happy and we played well, the other team just had some incredibly lucky shots...like seriously if I had done that none of them would have gone in and I would have been yelled at. We are a small team, we will always have problems against giants. :)

In other news, I think my brain is rejecting the exams. I can't focus on the fact that I need to study. I don't want to go to the Maths revision lectures. It seems to be only rejecting Maths, because I would be quite happy to sit down and revise for Education if I didn't then feel like I was wasting Maths studying time. My brain is an odd place to be at the moment.

But yeah, once my head is sorted out I might be able to update here properly, til then you may just have little posts like this. :)
