Cuppa Tea.

I'm sick.
I have another throat infection, which means that I am unable to eat, drink or talk. I hate being sick.
I made myself a cuppa, only to realise the milk I used was 'off'
I'm annoyed, cos it looked really nice and I could do with a cuppa at the moment. Guess I'll have to go make another one.
Mum made me a protein shake this morning - it was REALLY nice. I love my mum ♥
I wish I could make that photo a bit bigger as well, and I can, it just overlaps everything else on the page, I need to fix that :s

Parents music collection.

My assignment for photograpy is due at the end of this term and I only had 3 photos ready to hand in, and I had been wanting to  raid my Mum and Dads music collection and take photos of it. I was pleasantly surprised at some of their music. I knew most of the bands/people in their collection, which was full of KISS records - my mum loved them.  There were some odd looking records in there though - by people I hadn't even known existed, and when I asked Mum she had no idea who they were either. Must have been Dad's stuff...
It made me realise how different the music is today. Back then 'heavy' stuff would have been KISS, Deep Purple and Black Sabbath. Nowadays, what I would personally refer to as 'heavy' is Bring Me The Horizon, August Burns Red, The Devil Wears Prada, Underoath, The Amity Affliction, Parkway Drive and A Day to Remember. Actually ADTR isn't that heavy, well, their latest album 'What Seperates Me From You' (GREAT album, go buy it) is a little heavier than their previous album ('Homesick') but has more of a pop-punk feel to it. If you compare KISS, Deep Purple & Black Sabbath to the bands mentioned above, previous generations of 'heavy' music wouldn't fit into the 'heavy' catagory of today.

ANYWAY. I have been obsessed with BMTH's album 'There Is a Hell, Believe Me, I've Seen It. There Is a Heaven, Lets Keep It a Secret' - such a good album (in my opinion)

I've been dreaming of us leaving everything and everyone we've ever known.
I've been thinking all these visions must be a sign, so hold on and don't let go. - Visions.


I know I said my heart beats for you. I was lying girl, it beats for two. - Blessed With a Curse.


Those are just some of my favourite lyrics off that album. You should listen to it. Its amazing ♥

Good O'l Stew!

This is my friend Georgia & I - we have many inside jokes, such as this one "Good o'l Stew!"
She sent me a bunch of photos she had taken of herself & her pets,  and asked my to put them together like this ^^
Love you Georgia!

Don't Go

Finally managed to take some photos!
I'm very pleased with them, the one of the bird especially.
My cousin told me about photoscape and I have been using it to create a film effect on my photos lately - I'm addicted.
That's my dog, Tiggy, in the last photo - it looks like I'm holding her down, but she looks so adorable in this photo ♥

Roadside collection is currently happening in my area.
My mum spotted a really old record player which was in decent condition on her morning walk - I have been after one for my school photography project, and was going to pick it up and bring it home for me but didn't. When I went back to where she had seen it half an hour later, it was gone.
I find it quiet funny how many people drive around in their cars picking up other peoples 'rubbish', but to be honest there are some gems to be found.

Light Painting?

 My friend and I tried 'Light Painting' the other day as well.
In the dark it was really hard to see if the shots were in focus or not, so some of them are a tad out of focus :(

Caution

  

1. My friend and I made dresses out of Caution/Danger tape - which was really hard when they keep unravelling themselves. My SLR's battery decided to die on me 3 photos in, so I had to use my digital point and shoot one (Panasonic Lumix) some of the photos turned out pretty good.
