Exciting Times


I have had the best day...Rupert and I went to London on the train to see my housing for next year... Its pretty nice actually. It reminds me of a self catering Travel Lodge though. Anyway, the area is SO FUCKING COOL. I hadn't been to Brick Lane in about 3 years and it's grown so much! It such a happening scene now.... so awesome, and about 50 steps from my front door which is sick. The first three or so streets around my house is poor. Actually, I'll go as far as to say pretty shit actually, but I can see it being home! Which is good, it's shit because it's really intimidating and all the street signs are in Hindi or Urdu or something and everyone looks at you as if you're an alien because you A, aren't Asian and B, are dressed like an art student...aka....wtf do you think you look like... lol. But I loved hearing the call to prayer from the local mosque. It was so pretty, definitely something I could get used to, even if it is probably gunna wake me up at 5 every morning. Also what I really liked was the Indian sweet shops; there were so many of them and each one was so characterful and interesting! AND lastly, it's really easy to get to from home home. One one hour train, then 30 min on the tube and you're basically outside my door..it's also 8 tube stops from Orchid in Camden <3 I'm so excited!



After we saw my halls we went shopping.... well we WERE on Brick Lane... what else do you expect!?

I bought some lovely sandals from the coolest boutique! I have a picture but its blury... they have more buckles on the side..



I also bought some high-waisted knee length black silk shorts which are pretty cool from Beyond Retro.
Down the road from my halls there is a diner and bowling alley... it's. so. cool.
we went for a sugar fix and boy did we get one......an Oreo milkshake and a rocky road sundae =] I was soooo contented!!!


MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!

Thhheeennnnnn we trekked over to the other side of London to Clapham.... jokes. To see the degree show exhibition of the course I'm starting in September. I was a little confused because I didn't really think the work would be like that but tbh... the only time the students work by themselves is when they do a final piece... the rest of the time they are doing group work and making things for west end shows etc. Anyway the course is the best in the country.... so I just have to make it my own and trust in it...and myself.... wahhhh!

We got a train from Clapham to Reading which was nice because we didn't have to go all through London again but the train journey was looonnggg and had some absolute fucking imbeciles on it. This group of kids were (I say kids, they were only a few years younger than me) being completely racist to the LOVELY Asian business man sat next to me.... it's ok though, we (business man, Rupert and I) dissed them and their parents for not bringing them up right, then things got a bit heated and the business man threatened them and yeah..... they were so fucking out of order though, it made me so angry. but it doesn't matter because they will never get anywhere in life like that and one day they will say the wrong thing to the wrong person and they will get stabbed.....meh.

Got back to Oxford and I was like.......Ruperrrttt I want Nando's........ please can we go to Nando's.... =[ and he was like fuck yeah! that's a sweeeeeet idea!
So we went to Nando's and ate so much food..... oh. my. god. I got the haloumi and I nearly died... I've been craving Nando's haloumi for months. It was so good! and the perfect end to the perfect day!!!!


Tomorrow I was ment to go to college but... OH YEAH. Bez is broken! =[ The steering has gone and one of the tyres is dodgy and needs £100 worth of work...... just on a wheel! and the steering...... god knows how much that will be.... =[ poor Bez...I think I will give Bez a hug tomorrow. So now I have no car! therefore cant get to college to do lots of heavy lifting and painting walls.... oh dear... what a shame hahaha!
Instead I will make cushions and sleep and watch Jeremy Kyle.
Yay for today! Thank you Rupert for coming with me and making my day <3<3<3

I Just Want To Feel Something Today

Weyyy
I've had a lovely day, I went to Abingdon and met Orchid and her friend... then went to Masons (the fabric shop) and I bought lots of lovely fabric to make cushions with =]
I'll give you a sneek preview of one of the fabrics I bought.

Rupert bought me some fucking awesome high tops for my birthday. I'm absolutely in love with them... Can't wait for it to not be so hot so I can wear them comfortably =]

We might be going to his parents house in france this summer... I'm really excited... I hope it happens!!!
I just found this picture from the weekend... We had a bonfire in Port Meadow and it was so nice!

Fresh

So I gave my blog a revamp because I was a bit shit at keeping up my old blog.... and when I did write it all I did was moan.... ha. So here's the brand spanking new one!
Hell On My Heels is a tattoo I saw on the lady who did my septum piercing ... it looked pretty awesome so thats where the name is from..
The blog picture is from fashiontoast which I have just descovered! It's an awesome fashion blog by a nextmodels model.
One of my greatest friends got the same halls as me =] I'm so stoked about it! It's gunna be awesome! a few people from the London College of  Fashion added me on facebook and were all like heyyyyyy were going to the same campus! haha they all seem very jolly, but I dont want to commit myself to anyone incase I end up hating them in real life. Because that would suck huh.
I now pledge to blog regularly, with interesting things and about all of my antics.
I CANNOT believe that my course has ended. I would post pictures of my piece up but I cba. and wth it's all in the past now anyway. All that I need to think about over the next few months is my summer, and earning money... and stuff.
I decided that this summer I will just make cushions =] and they will be lovely... and clothes.
The stokednesss for the coming year is so intense. and even though I will be away from my beautiful boy, I will be living in the same city as my bestest friend in the whole wide world and my cousin, and in the same halls as awesome Lucy =]
I need to go cook risotto now, and learn about lions in a documentary
Peace XO

And The Most She Will Do Is Throw Shaddows At You, But She's Always A Woman To Me

Oh boy.
I'm so bored of not having fun.
All I've been doing for as long as I remember now is working and working and working and then sleeping and / or  being too tired to do anything.
I NEED to have fun and take pictures and etc etc
This weekend has been nice... I think this is what has brought this all on. Jojo (Ruperts little brother) and his new girlfriend Polly came to stay on sunday night. We took them to port meadow and had a bonfire... it was generally very nice to see Jojo again and meet Polly. She is lovvvely. Very shy but I cant talk can I! ha. Then on monday we took them round a few collages because Jojo wants to apply to Oxford.
It was so nice... and I wish they stayed for another night.
I'm so jelous of Rupert and all of his siblings. I wish I had a younger brother or sister to look after and corupt! haha. I hate being the youngest. But it's not even the youngest....I'm basically in a different family. By the time I was even born my brothers and sister were like.... married! In fact, my sister had twins a year before I was born! I'm basically an only child.
I miss annoying everyone with the amount of picture I take.... I just don't take them anymore. which is sad and I don't like it.
I just came back from summer job hunting.... I applied to Monsoon, FCUK, Scribbler, the library, Waterstones and Blackwells. I bet I don't hear from any of them! ahha oh well.... I mean its not like I don't have a job at all... I just want a better job which can give me more hours..... so I can buy a mac and not be a poor student.
My cupboard is coming along quite well... I need to go back to the scrap yard that I went to yesterday but they were really scary! hha
I was told that I could come in all of half term (to college) to fix up my room and stuffffff but then yesterday I got kicked out because they had to spray the walls or something and when I went in today I was told I couldn't work untill friday because they are painting the floor! god.
I think I might go out tonight if the jazz night is on....I feel like a bit of jazz. Tomorrow night Rupert and I are going out for dinner with his parents.... and maybe the kids too? not sure... they are coming to oxford to see some friends or something for a few days and asked us is they could take us to Browns..... hah  we were like.... um YES you can take us to Browns...one of the most famous and expensive resturants in Oxford!
Oh what to wear!?! XO
