Welcome to my Homemade Revision Hell...

Tuesday, May 19, 2009


What I'm Wearing: Zara Coat, Vintage Leather Satchel & Pink Polka Dot Tee, Knee-Socks & Shoes: Topshop, Skirt: H&M Divided.

Risking sounding completely melodramatic, my life kind of sucks right now. I hate exams and revision even more. Reading Macbeth at one in the morning is a dire situation to find yourself in...esp. when you find yourself wholly wired and trembling due to an excess in black coffee.
I was sooo glad Macbeth finallyyy died in the end and almost jealous that Lady Macbeth got to kill herself and didnt have to endure, unlike me, the tedium of the tragedy's remaining scenes. I do like Shakespeare, well at least I did...

I am studying at my house, all my housemates are in various studying environments (libraries, computer rooms etc.) all day, so I have the whole place to myself, making concentration a little easier...but in spite of this, I do have to clear my head from time to time. What better way than a walk by the river, and in knee-socks with a spot of flower-picking?
Yes, please.

Durham Cathedral

Oh, and welcome to my social life:

My notes are def. pretty to look at but...(is anyone else craving a STRONG cocktail or maybe the entirety of a bottle of wine?)

Ok, so, I might disappear from the blogger world for a couple days. Will be back soon, I promise. And this will be theee LAST time I mention revision on my blog- another promise, I WILL keep. Good Luck to all of you with exams, gcses, a levels, finals..or degree exams. It is NOT a fun time, but summer is only a couple weeks away! xxx

everyone's fooled by the prettiness of Durham, they don't know that it is fundamentally SHITE.
I know, I have been here 16 years.
That coat is bloody brill, and I like your eye censorship, is that in honour of the end of an era? A 14 year era? Hmm? xxx

lisa said...

Lol your notes are so colourful! Good luck with exams.

Kate said...

Wow I love your outfit so much, those socks look awesome.

My life has pretty much been the same for the last few days, though how do you manage to make your revision notes look so pretty?

Love the blog btw x

Good luck with your exams :)
I've been reading your blog for quite a while now, and your writing is always (with doubled underlines under always) excellent! Also, I love your style! Its awesome! I wish I had your ability for vintage-shopping, but, unfortunately, I don't. I'm trying though. Btw, I live in Oslo. Not the greates city for vintage shopping :P I love your blog!
