Reading and Writing

Late night creative session... well, listening to yummy music and trying to write a presentation for an interview I have. EEK.

I'm not sure how well it's going...it feels sort of bland. I need to spice it up a bit but at this time of night (which appears to be the only free time I ever get these days!) that's not going so well. Hmmm. 

Today I went to a new cafe that was delightfully scrummy. Full of vintage knick-knacks and billions of books, this place was very cute. They didn't have that many tables and chairs though, so my friend and I felt somewhat guilty sat there for a couple of hours. Still, I bought a couple of Margaret Atwood books and a James Baldwin title, so I have plenty to sink my teeth into. And, the Baldwin is for Uni, so I don't need to feel totally guilty either! YES!!

I also went to work today, but definitely spent all of my wages before I started, by buying these exciting things! I feel so stupidly grown up. It's a little scary.

Anyway, time for sleep, or at least to retire to bed with a bit of Wuthering Heights. The English geek is out in full swing today.

Good night cherubs.

Shopping Spree

With the arrival of student loans, my desire to shop has increased ten fold. And it was already pretty high.

Do you ever have that period of time where you know you need to buy things but you put it off because you can't really afford to? Well, that's been me for the past six months. The result is that I am desperately in need of a large number of things.

Unfortunately, I seem to have misplaced my sense of logic, and have bought other stuff instead. 

Recent purchases include...

and these...

As well as another dress, and jumper, and underwear, and stationery and a number of other ridiculous things. 

Woops.
