for the first time in my life, i've realised that it doesn't matter. it just doesn't matter what i do... if i make mistakes or if i make the wrong choices. nothing is exactly final and you can keep moving and changing forever.
but scheisse i really don't know what to do with my life, or where to go really. i keep changing my mind and deciding to live in opposite sides of the country. i guess things will be more clear tomorrow after i go to hospital for an assesment and i can get some idea what the therapy is going to be like and how long they think i'll have to go. i am definitely very anxious about going, i have that horrible sick-pre-test feeling. yuck.

lat friday i went to the doctor again, then my gran came over to give me some tousers she sewed up and then i talked to em on the phone for aages & watched ugly betty.

saturday i woke up really late, texted becca and we went to town for a bit. ended up walking around for ages and then going to clowns for coffee. i'm not sure i like how they're changed it... it's sort of lost it's individual italian style that i remember from my childhood.
had the longest talk about everything going on in our lives and that was just so nice to be able to talk without feeling judged.
i came home and baked up some vegan gingerbread people for gifts - the icing actually worked & they were adorable if i may say so.

sunday em and caitlin came over and we baked and cooked and had some laughs, then rach and tom joined us and we had the nicest christmas meal, much like last year. we ended up playing dont panic and watching some telly.

monday was freezing so i didn't really go out much, just walked phoebe and went to buy some soy milk.

tuesday met up with ems and we spent about 4 hours in town looking for xmas presents which was nice. we had a good time despite walking so much and talking/ranting about everything and then sat in starbucks and drank some coffees. we also saw ruth and then rach which was nice.
then my mum came back from rome so we talked for a while.

today i haven't done a great deal - just taking photos, some art and i baked a cinnamon loaf cake which was fun.

i haven't posted in forever, i guess i don't have that much to say. plus i prefer to use this for photo blogging but i currently can't upload any photos, so no posts!

saturday - i went to town with my mum and we went shopping, got some pretty xmas decorations and had a cup of coffee in starbucks which was nice.
tuesday - went to daily bread.
wednesday - went to town to do some more christmas shopping (nearly finished now!) then met up with my mum and we went to dojos which was nice.
saturday - got our tree and decorated it with some really sweet russian style decorations, it's all looking so festive now!
sunday - met up with becca which was lovely and we sat in costa and talked for ages. great to see her after so long!
monday - i cycled to my grans & she sewed up some of my trousers and hopefully she's going to teach me how to knit (as i have forgotten) soon!
today i went to town and did some shopping, bought some better winter shoes (as in they're not pumps) and a bunch of toiletries and food.

my mums going to rome with her boyfriend tomorrow so i hope she has a good time, she definitely deserves a break. i'm going to the doctor on friday for another check-up, meeting up with people at the weekend hopefully, xmas meal with friends sometime next week and then i have an appointment at the hospital next thursday which will be horrible but oh well. then christmas (though i still dont know what we're doing as we're meant to be going to london to see the family, but no transport works on christmas/boxing day and we cant leave phoebe for that long so ack!).

back in cambridge, very hectic past 2 weeks.. my dad was here for a bit & things were stressful. i've been to town a few times and they've totally changed everything since i was last here - theres a new zara & H&M in town and they finished john lewis.
my mum bought a laptop so now i have internet access which is good, but my 7 year old brick phone finally gave up it's struggle for life, which is saddening.
i went to london with my mum and my gran (for her birthday) at my aunts which was nice. we all had a meal, then sarah tried on some clothes for my other cousins birthday present from my aunt (and i even got a cute little cardigan!), then we watched have i got news for you and everyone went to bed, while me and my mum stayed up & talked. i woke up late on saturday and had some oatmeal, then me and my mum went to oxford street & i really love all the decorations and pretty lights! i got some lovely christmas presents and then we had some coffee in starbucks which was really nice.

i went to the doctor on monday which was scary as there were many tests and blood tests taken & i was there for ages, getting weighed and my doctor went through my history and then i went back today for results which were suprisingly good!

i also dyed my hair brown on tuesday as i got bored of it and bleach was killing my hair more than necessary so i'll let it grow out more naturally. no photos as i left my camera lead in leeds which is a little bit annoying. i then went to town and bought a bunch of food and some more gifts and things to make - i'm going all crafty this christmas (as i'm poor and i need something to do!).

it's relatively boring here as everyones at uni, but i do have loads of time to just draw and doodle and write a journal which is nice. i've gotten back into drawing daily which i'm so happy about. i also get to take lots of photos! i took phoebe for a walk & took some photos out in the park and just enjoyed the fresh winter air.

happy (belated) halloween! it's already november, can you believe it?

i've finally realised that i can change how i feel about every situation just by the way i think and the way i view it. it's surreal but i have actually been feeling so much better lately just by thinking positively about things. instead of focusing on what i hate and what irritates me in life, i'm looking at things differently & focusing on what i enjoy and i feel so much better. this has never worked with me before and i don't think it's so easy to come out of depression just by thinking good things, but it definitely helps.

recently:
- we finished our halloween zine & we're going to start working on the next issue soon as.
- halloween was good & i decided to go as a doll this year (as i've been dead for too many years in a row), though stressful as me & em had to get the zines out, buy things, make decorations, bake cookies and get ready just in time!
- i have also been drawing a lot which is definitely good.
- fireworks night tomorrow, not sure if we're doing anything yet but it could be fun.
- toms birthday friday so need to get him a present & bake some oatmeal cookies for him.
- going to LA in a month which is scarily soon. then coming back to cambridge for christmas, which reminds me i need to buy & make a lot of gifts.

i remember HALLOWEEEN! )

i feel like we need to recycle better. we've got a recycling bin for the house but i don't feel like that's enough really!

i'm considering getting a house bunny. i miss having a furry friend so much but i need to look into it more - like how to get them house trained and if they'd be okay home alone & theres phoebe to think about.

i seem to be spending copious amounts of money lately, and budgeting is only so effective when i have to pay £100 per month on tax, just had to pay £30 for tv license & i owe chick £43 for bills. ouch.

it's been a good few days, saturday me and emily went into town to do some shopping, went past the cockpit & i saw against me! bummed i didn't go see them but i've seen 'em 3 times and i am poor. we then headed for some shops and i bought some fairy lights and stamps. we then watched cannibal holocaust which was pretty much just gross and not really horror - more shock value gore - and i wasn't all that into it as the plot sucked.
sunday was boring, did some housework (have i mentioned i've decided to become a domestic goddess/housewife and never work again?) and then me, em, tom and james baked some brownies. obviously i didn't eat them, but i like baking! then we watched goodbye lenin.
today i've been writing for the hallowe'en zine me and em have made up (we're gonna do the rest of it as a bigger issue and this as a one off mini issue) and making horror music playlists for the halloween party we're throwing on wednesday.

i need to:
- make decorations
- buy decorations
- carve pumpkin
- help em sell zines at uni
- get an outfit (due to lack of time i may have to be a kitty or a dead doll or something)
- take some photos!

i've not managed to do too much while i was in cambridge, but i did get some stuff done.
i took phoebe to the vet (i actually managed to walk her all the way there past the cars & all!) and it went so well & i'm proud of my little baby. i miss her loads, i think i'm going to have to bring her here soooon.
i went shopping with my mum and bought myself two pairs of trousers which will be very useful for winter as i can pile on the layers! i still really need some actual shoes, but i doubt i'll ever find anything that is not leather/suede and that i actually like, so canvas and wet feet it is for now.
i also made some redcurrant jam and a cake for my gran. uneventful 2 weeks? yeh pretty much when there's no one left in cambridge.
paul came over and him and my mum basically cornered me in a room & he tried to persuade me to go seek professional help. that wasn't fun at all and i nearly started crying, but i know that they're only doing it as they care. i'm still not going to get a therapist though. not for now. although i'm certain i do need one, i'm just not ready to ask for help yet.

i came back to leeds with my mum and paul and we went to ikea & purchased a bunch of stuff. i managed to put it all together myself (with a little help from em and james) so that was a relief and i'm proud of myself for managing to do that, i was always rubbish at construction. i also finally have internet connection so i can spend my days looking at blogs and pretty pictures. i haven't done anything hugely note-worthy, just going to town & hanging out with people and watching movies.
i need to write my CV and start looking for some temp work or something. i get bored so easily and having no routine isn't good for me.
my dad and his girlfriend are getting married so i'll probably fly to LA in december for the wedding if i can afford it, this does mean i can't get a full time job til after christmas though. hmm.

i'm also interested in maybe taking a photography course, i got a really nice SLR camera for my birthday as well so that sort of spurred me on!


things i am looking forward to:
- leeds film festival (so many good movies over 2 weeks!!)
- visiting the art gallery
- going to muji as i've always loved the pens i got from there.
- going to beanos
- finding a nice cafe to call my 'local'
- making some new friends

life is like a pie  )

3:51 pm - too much at once
lots and lots and lots going on right now, i'm not even sure where to begin really!

i moved up to leeds with half my stuff on the 16th and becca's parents gave me a lift. we went to her sisters place in leeds first and dropped her things off then hung out with her housemates for a bit and had tea. we then headed for my house and they dropped me off which was kind of over-whelming. i was just alone in my room with a bunch of boxes wishing my mum could be with me to help out. after a bit em came back and then tom, james and chick were all there & we decided to clear out the kitchen so me and em had space for our stuff.
i think we went to bed pretty early & then i woke up, got the train to town and met up with becca and her sister. we shopped for ages & went to some cute cafes. the day after that i met up with them again and we went back to rhiannons & then back to town where we went for beccas birthday meal at a nice vegetarian indian restaurant called 'hansas'. the guy was so friendly & literally went through the whole menu when i asked what he'd reccomend!
the day after that i saw becca for a little bit and we had some tea and they ate some food at this lovely little cafe shop called the hungry caterpillar. i am definitely going back there for food shopping & to sit and drink a warm herbal tea when its cold and raining outside, the atmosphere was so nice & the music was so relaxing. i said my byes to becca which was sad, probably wont see her til christmas and who knows if i'll have any time to come here then, so was a bit tearful.
the next week is a blur.. me and em spent a lot of time together, shopping in town and getting house supplies and food on various days, checking out the park and just watching tv. i also met up with rhiannon and paul, alex and her boyfriend & we went to the hyde park picture house and saw 'interstellar 5555' which is a japanese movie with a daft punk soundtrack - really good fun! i will definitely be going for many a movie viewing as it is literally 5 minutes from the house and plays a bunch of good arts films. the only negative is the annoying student types who find it funny to stand up and dance during the movie.
i'm pretty much used to leeds now though i still dont know where half the stuff is. we have some really nice neighbours so theres always a bunch of people around which is strange but nice. i reckon they all think i'm crazy for not drinking and not wanting to go out clubbing but ah well they'll get used to it, or not!

i've come back to cambridge for my birthday and to collect my computer and such (though i have to wait for paul to give me a lift back with everything so i dont know when im going back...).

saturday i went to london with my mum and i bought a coat and a mug & some other cute stuff.

sunday was my birthday, i am now in my twenties. what madness. my aunt and her husband came up from london and we we went to teriakis for some foods which was nice though i started crying (it was my birthday so allowed!) when robin started going on about me getting a job & well i am very emotional at the moment. it was nice despite that and we came back to ours for some cake (well, they had the cake!). my mum bought me a monitor and she paid for my coat which was nice. got money and some random little things from my gran and a whole lot of useful money from my aunt - seriously, she is the most generous person i have ever met - along with a music box and some cute trinkets from her cruise trip. a bunch of people phoned me up so i felt a little better than the day before where i was just wollowing in self pity haha.

plan for the next few days is just to get some chores done, like go to dentist, take phoebs to vet for her booster etc. then back to leeds!

it's getting quite autumnal, i collected some conkers yesterday and really thought uh-oh its actually september! i'm looking forward to this winter more than i was the last. i'm looking forward to coats, scarfs, hats and layers. i'm not too sure why though. i'm even looking forward to christmas (and i totally hate christmas), as i'll hopefully get to see my whole family (well, minus dad). maybe i'll even get to see alice who contacted my aunt after a year & a half, i miss my cousin and i miss those proper family occasions.


okay so i've been packing up my life.. very slowly but it's getting there and i wont be taking my computer with me til later so last update for a while. and i have nothing much to say ha! i went to becca's thursday & we packed up her desk stuff, then planned sunday out which was good and i definitely needed to talk to someone.
my mum had her eye operation on wednesday so i feel really harsh leaving her in this state (and for arguing with her for at least two hours daily about various things) but there's not much else i can do. i may be coming back in a few weeks for my birthday and to collect all my other things that i've forgotten so it's not like i wont see her for ages. still, i feel bad.

friday i met up with tom, rach, caitlin and em and we went to indigo cafe which was lovely & tom predicted our future in my green tea. fun! he's off to manchester tomorrow but that's hardly far from leeds. it's strange how everyone's leaving, i mean obviously i knew it was going to happen but it's only just hit me how we're all going to be scattered all over the place. i also cannot believe i will be 20 in two weeks, that is total madness.

i'm a bit worried about living alone, i feel like i have no idea how life works, if that makes sense. i don't know how to read my water meter, or how to get a tv to work, where to go to sort out council tax or how to register my vote in a different place. i guess it's all just a learning process thing but it still scares me going into something and having no idea what i'm doing! i need to paint something, or create something. i haven't done anything remotely artistic in so long and i think just decorating my room will make me feel a bit better! wish me luck. x

7:24 pm - arghhhhhhhhhh.
i want to start rollerskating again, that was fun. and i'm definitely going to go to yoga classes when i get to leeds. i don't really know what i enjoy doing anymore but i liked yoga so i want to take that up properly.

i'm sick of packing & sick of thinking. if only i could just stop thinking for half an hour and get a proper break!

last night i dreamt i found this really nice vintage chair for £2 and then i flew to paris but forgot to pack all my clothes. i'm pretty sure this is somehow related to moving & me being scared of everything, ever.

i went to london yesterday for my aunts housewarming party & oh my does she have a nice house! the bathrooms were bigger than my bedroom which was pretty ridiculous.

i'm always cold, i'm not sure i'll actually make it through this winter alive at this rate.. although i did buy some gloves, a scarf and a hat so that's going to help. i really need a coat and some more jumpers though so i think i'll take my mums bike & go shop tomorrow.

12:32 pm
i'm finally back to cambridge.. i feel like i haven't been here forever. bosnia was really fun, i went to mostar, pocitelj, neom, this little mountain village called lukomir and a few other places as well. also went to the film festival which was awesome & i watched a bunch of really great films - control, hotel very welcome, it's hard to be nice & a few more i cant remember. i also got to stand a foot from anton corbijn as he was at this party i went to!

got back tuesday night and wednesday had to go to leeds, saw my house and then went to the festival the day after. it was 'aight', nothing too special but it was sort of fun in hindsight. gogol bordello were the best band i saw, no doubt. me, em and tom left sunday night as tom wasn't feeling well and stayed at the house. we spent ages cleaning up after chick and all his shit & then made some rules. then me and em journied back the day after.

sunday was so nice & sunny! finally we got a little bit of summer, i can't say i was really enjoying the rain. i cycled to becca's and we decided to go to grantchester meadows. it was about 6 miles away and really hot so we almost died by the time we got there but it was really fun. becca's sister rhiannon came along as well, and she's also living & working in leeds this year so that was nice to have someone in the same position as me to talk to about things. we bought some drinks (and i got the cutest little jam pot that i thought might be useful for leeds fest), sat down in the deck chairs and just enjoyed the weather. after a long while we cycled back & after 12 miles of cycling we were pretty damn tired. i went come, cooked up some food and collapsed.

monday i went to town to get some food shopping done and ended up buying 2 pairs of shoes, a top and a scarf. madness. cycled back home, ate some food then cycled all the way back and met up with becca after work and we went to this tea cafe place that was trying to be authentic japanese but clearly was not. rubbish. after that we went to borders, saw lucia and spent ages looking at films (i finally got a film i've wanted to see for a year and half but couldnt remember the name - thank you lucia and helfpul man at borders - tickets!), then books and then lucia went home. me and becca went after a bit and tried to find my bike but alas, it was stolen. a sad day, i loved that rusty bike no matter how much i complained about it. guess i'll be buying a new one in leeds. so becca bunked me all the way home which was fun & we didn't fall over once!

today i am baking a cake, packing some more and then going to rachaels for some foods.
tomorrow i think i'm going for a meal with work and then thursday flying off so i won't be back in cambridge properly til the end of august as i'm going straight to leeds fest pretty much. after that i have to come back (stupid, i know) and pack everything then i have about 2 weeks to move.

i haven't really had any time to write in here or read other people's things for a while now so i'm going to quickly write some thoughts down. i have been crazy busy lately and haven't really had a chance to see or hear from anyone for a while so i hope everyone is okay!
i did see ems on tuesday & that was fun.. can't remember what we did really other than walk around abit, sit in starbucks abit, walk some more & then we found this cute little bar and as it was only about 5pm, it was totally empty so we had a good place to sit and chat.

my mum came back from holiday a few days ago and has yet to stop ranting at me. we did go out shopping today and bought a bunch of cooking utensils & cake tins as well as some foodstuffs from arjuna, a bunch of innsence & a sleeping bag.

i'm meeting up with becca on sunday as i haven't seen her forever & then mondays i think i'll go shopping, tuesday rach's meal and wednedsay pack and then teri-akis with the work people & thursday i'm flying to sarajevo. when i get back i'll have one day and then leeds fest. hectic.

other than that i am fully taking advantage of film4 +1 & i've watched some really good movies:

- i heart huckabees: was good, a bit on the bizarre side but that's always a good thing.
- the good girl: i've seen this before but i just love it so, jake can do no wrong.
- the secretary: this was really, really good! apart from the ending was sort of a let down but i liked it a lot.
- garden state: probably my least favourite, i didn't much like last kiss (zach braffs other film) either so i'm guessing i only like him in scrubs.
- brick: amazing, absolutely hard to follow at first but totally worth watching til the end. i could easily watch this again.
- lost in translation: i finally saw this, and i liked it. i can see why a lot of people donn't like it, but it's the sort of film i go for. plus, it's set in japan so therefore cannot be bad.
- late night shopping: missed the last 30 minutes but i really enjoyed the rest so i'm going to have to watch that again.

so this week has been pretty good, on wednesday the training team were having a day out to this 'go ape' adventure thing and me and sophie were invited so of course, decided to go. it was pretty crazy stuff, and me being petrified of heights decided to skip all but the first challenge and stuck to photo taking! i got home early, went to the post-office and then to daily bread for more food shopping. becca came over and i made the weirdest meal.. split pea curry with sweetcorn and hummous! we talked for ages about everything which was so nice and then watched she's so lovely as we were in a rom-com type mood.

friday was my last day at work. sad times, kinda. i'll miss the people as they're lovely but i wont miss taking calls every 5 minutes. it felt almost like leaving school actually as i've been there nearly a year. i was only there 2 & a half hours then a bunch of us went to the pub for drinks and stuff. they gave me a card, some flowers and a voucher for virgin so i'm going to go buy films! not sure which but i want these: science of sleep, this is england, run lola run, the edukators, goodbye lenin.


yesterday i met up with caitlin, we hung around town for a little and then met up with em & then sarah. went to every shop possible and em got her outfit while sarah and caitlin went the other way and got their outfits, i got some cute sunglasses for £5, i bought some veg from the market (and ed foxteese gave me some free figs!) we got toms present and then me and em sat on a bench for a while talking in the sunshine. fun times!
i then cycled home, quickly baked some cupcakes for tom, ate some food, got my paris/nicole richie outfit ready and then cycled to toms. ed, ben r, ben m, ruth and tom were there and we sat outside for ages before the others arrived. was super nice seeing people i hadn't seen in months and was lovely seeing tom, chloe and broox. i also spoke to ed c and steven and ruth for ages which was nice as i don't see them outside partys really. when i was leaving i sort of was saying bye to ems and she was quite drunk and i don't know how we got onto the topic that we did but she was all worried about me and started crying and then we talked for hours while people kept interupting every few minutes. was so sweet of her though and i love that girl so much & it means a lot to me that she cares. i eventually said my byes (again) and cycled back home in the rain.

today i have been hoovering, cleaning, and i'm just making some butternut squash soup. yum!

yesterday was fun, i woke up quite early and went to daily bread to shop for stuff. then cycled to town & me and em met up in town and walked around for ages. we eventually got bored of looking for the cheapest harry potter book and ended up in this little tea shop and em had some soup. it was really nice in there and gave us a chance to properly talk about everything - it always feels like we have a hundred things to say to each other! after that we went to nomads & i bought some insence, then went to the market and bought some veg then went to saisburys and bought the rest. we were meant to meet up with the others then, but they were all reading bloody harry potter the night before and were too tired - losers!

i bought plane tickets for sarajevo (i know, i feel totally bad about flying twice in the space of 2 months) so i'm looking forward to that and seeing all those relatives.

hello, i have not updated in about a month so i thought i should.
stuff that's gone on/going on:

- i got back from america last week & it was super. i will post millions of photos when i get the chance.
- i am leaving work next friday so only 5 days left, yay!
- my mum's gone to croatia so i'm all alone.
- last night me, becca and her sister watched 'bad education' which was urm... interesting.
- i also made roast butternut squash soup which was yum!
- met up with em & tom last sunday and we mooched around town for a while, then met up with becca & we had some food at the arts picture house. then we went back to hers and watched 'kids in america', which i can only blame myself for - purely because nicole richie was is in it i was like ooh lets get it! it wasn't even tacky funny, just bad.
- i think my teeth are going to fall out. well not really, but the gums are receeding and i think the lip piercings will need to come out.
- i might go to sarajevo in a few weeks.
- this weather is depressing me, it has been raining every week for the past 3 months and it's almost august - we haven't even had a proper summer yet.
- i have been obsesively list-making at work to kill time and so far have food shopping lists (i am going to daily bread and getting like 50 things haha), things to buy for leeds lists, things to take to leeds festival if i end up going lists etc.
- oh and i still don't know when i'm moving or how i'm going to move up all my stuff haha.

- becca came over to mine and we watched tv and ate crackers.
- i got a blood test taken, the results came back fine so apparently nothing wrong with me. again. pfft.
- i almost got run over by a hearse. seriously. i felt like i was in a spoof horror movie where they're like 'dude, and then she got hit by a hearse!'.
- me and becca watched 'perfume' which was visually amazing, but the book is better.
- i've realised how much i dramatise everything - i'm totally melodramatic and i didn't even realise until people started calling me it!
- i saw lucia on the way to work tuesday which was random, but nice.
- i went to teri akis for a meal with my gran and mum for my mums birthday on thursday.
- friday i met up with ems and we sat in starbucks and chatted proper. was so very nice, i cant wait to live with her and we can spend lots of time together again talking!
- today i have been packing my belongings and trying to get ready.

tomorrow i'm going to london for my aunts wedding & then come back, get jess to come over then at 3am trek to gatwick. so i'm off to the states and wont be updating for a while, hope everyone has fun and i hope i don't die on the horrible, horrible plane! x

i was ill most of this week, had my appraisal friday and then went to the doctor afterwards to find out if i had hypoglycemea. he basically just weighed me, took my blood pressure and said i was underweight and therefore it was pretty avoidable if i just ate more! i did manage to convince him to give me a blood test (despite how much i hate hate hate them) so i have to go do that monday. and give them a pee sample. fun times.

sunday i met up with jess & we went a shopping, bought so much stuff - shoes, trouses, 2 dresses, shampoo, conditioner, nailvarnish, lip gloss, wax strips, an apron, 2 bags and a card/bag for my mums birthday. oh dear. was super fun despite my spending & after shopping for ages we sat in a park and took photos for about an hour! then i cycled home.

i'm just trying to create a list of stuff that we're gonna need to sort out for the house so i'm gonna keep adding to this.

- gas/water/electricity
- toilet paper
- cutlery
- plates/bowls/glasses
- washing up liquid
