104.Wishes for sandy beaches

Earlier today this post would have been filled with alot of garbage.I've had a pretty upsetting morning,but now have calmed myself and feel that I would get no relief in ranting.

So instead outfit photos...














Skirt-Topshop,Jumper-Zara,Tights-Dorothy Perkins,Shoes-Vintage Etsy

This is a really simple outfit,that could do with some accesories or something to brighten it up.I'm very much after a nice long golden chain with some sort of interesting pendant on it at the moment...but everything I see seems so cliche,and I would feel too sterotypical wearing some of the stuff in Topshop.

I love this mirror to bits....it used to be my grandma's.I love pieces of history,and I'm lucky to live in a home filled with so many interesting bits and pieces that have stories attached to them.

Now I think it's time for me to go read something.Other than wikipedia. I dont want to get anymore harrowing images of murderers at night.I spent yesterday evening reading about the moors murders and "The Smiths" on wikipedia,and found it difficult to sleep thinking about Ian Brady or the song "suffer little children".

103.Wishes to die beside someone I love


I love it when you find a song you instanly know isn't going to leave you.
That you play in bed
walking up the street
on the bus
in your room
when you draw
and every other minute you can squeeze it into.

Instinctively you must sway your head and hum in happiness.
I'm urging you to read the lyrics for this song.Lyrics mean so much.

102.Wishes for that sleepy eyed look













Jeans H&M,Top H&M,Jacket Mango(except I bought it from a charity shop),Shoes Etsy,Random ribbon in hair

Todays been pretty good.I cleaned the majority of my room,and have spent the rest of the day reading.This evening though I felt the need for some fresh air in my lungs,so decided to walk to the nearby field.The front part is very tamed with football posts and cut grass-however,I've always preffered the area that is concealed by a large fence.However,a gap made by vandals means theres acces to it.

The back area is far more rugged with long grass,bramble bushes,muddy trails and sometimes the odd gypsies horse.I was trying to go for an almost eerie mood in these photos to suit the eerie misty weather and was fairly pleased with the outcome considering I don't think I'm too great with the camera.

I did try and get more shots with the horses,but as soon as I advanced close to them they began walking my way.I've heard enough stories about them charging towards my friends to remind myself to steer clear.They are truly beautiful graceful creatures,but they are also powerful.Shame I didn't have any carrots to tempt them with.

Tommorow looks to be a great day as Charlottes coming over....

99.Wishes to find a panda

So for all us "nerdy" bookreaders,I decided to do a little book review...
A friend lent me this and it was a pretty enjoyable read.It was more of a teenage novel,and I felt it was a little too simply wrote.I felt the writer could have used a lot more techiniques to make the book more magical,and less obvious.From start to finish,I pretty much predicted the plot.

It's a book which covers themes of love,afterlife,religion and different situations between 2 very different families. I wasn't too keen on the religious ideas being someone who's very sceptical about those matters.I didn't like the idea that the characters went to heaven or something similiar.The ending was a bit of a lentdown.

Saying that it was an easy read and quite gripping for reasons I can't explain.And like my friend said "It has a pretty cover!"....which is very true! I would reccomend it if you can get past all the religious "nonsense", and would like an interesting easy read.


I just finished chocolat this weekend and it was a fabulous read.Before I even picked up the book,I had seen the movie atleast 5 times and it happens to be a favourite flick of mine.Sometimes I find it difficult to read a book already knowing the basic plot from the movie,but if there is enough variation then it's fine.And with chocolat there was....the film and book are incredibly different.

The characters are much more developed(you really get a insight into there minds),and quite different to how they are portrayed in the movie.The book was just as(or even more) magical than the film,and a incredibly intriguing read.It really does capture life in a french village,with all its quaintness,stuborness and traditions.

I would write a little plot summary,but am finding it quite difficult to put it into words,without just telling you the whole story;so I guess you just have to read the book to find out!

I would most definatley reccomend it to anyone,even if you've seen the film and I cannot wait to get my hands on the sequel.

So my next reading mission should hopefully be "The Hunger Games",which my friend is going to lend me which sounds pretty interesting.Finally, I ask a little favour.My easter holidays are soon approaching,and I'd like to find a couple of books to keep me entertained.Are there any books you could reccomend? I'm really into all sorts...so anything at all!

PS...oh know,my dashboard tells me I have written 100 posts,but my wish number says 99! This is the actual 100th post....but I'll celebrate it in my next post.I must have miscounted with my wishes!

98.Wishes for the easter holidays and more sunshine

Another weekend gone by,filled with failures.I keep setting these targets,and then never following through...never completing the tasks I set out to do.It's driving me a little crazy,that I never am productive enough and can spend hours doing pointless trivial things.I am such a time waster,I might as well be eating time up itself.

At the moment I am questioning even writing these posts,were I just complain like some complete teenage dramatic.As if there isnt enough pain in the world already....I mean the sheer amounts people go through,just makes my sadness seem trifle and that theres no justification for me even getting hung up on my own issues.Following that theme this post was meant to be atleast a tiny bit epic,and well you'll see it's not at all. Sooo this weekend I....
