.Oh heart thee.

Band Of Skulls.
They're killing me softly with their songs.
It reminds me of 90's alt rock straight out of my childhood. 13 years old,staying up late listening to Velvet Chain on my disc man.

Dig it. I do.

.For the record.

"Never make some a priority when to them you're only an option."

Would it be overly cheesy if I told Britt this tomorrow? I wonder if he'd roll his eyes at my over dramatics. So maybe I won't say it but you know it'll be on loop in my head.

I'm unsure as to why I'm even writing about him. I don't really care at the end of the night. I'm not lonely, I'm very happy minus the extreme boredom at my current situation.So why the boy post? Probably because I'm too stoned to write about zombies or the cool story I heard tonight, just sitting here... Waiting for gummy bears.

I think somewhere in the back of my mind, in that deep part of my subconscious I know that I really should stop chasing boys, it doesn't make me any less bored with life and none of them are any thing close to what I want.

So, on that note, this note is now no note-ish.

.Hearts.

Watch this.

I want a room like this one day. All my musician friends could come over and play. It'd be like a free concert.

.My friend is lovely.

My lovely friend sent me this while we were in the middle of a three day post-fight stand off.

"I put no one above us. We'll still be friends when this all turns to dust"



On my really lonely nights I listen to this song and remember that I'm loved.
So, listen to this song and know you're loved too. <3

Rant & Roar.

My friend Andrea is pretty damn smart.

She posted this up today.

.don't call me crazy until you've tried this.

Hey Ya'll.




So for the past couple of weeks I've been obsessed with making homemade facial masks. I have lots of time, a sparse social life and there aren't many prospects on the dating front, so, what the heck, why not spend my free time turning my kitchen into a laboratory...A laboratory of beauty.

I've researched and tried a couple of these masks so I thought I should post them and share the wealth. Honestly, don't shun me for being a weirdo until you've tried at least one of these recipes.

A basic exfoliating scrub for all skin types :
Mix Brown Sugar and Olive Oil until it becomes a paste massage it into your face and rinse.

For Dry Skin:
1/2 a teaspoon of honey (I found the runnier the better)
1 egg yolk
1 table spoon dried milk powder

mix into a paste and apply, keep it on for about 10-15 minutes and rinse. I'm more of a combination skin type so I was worried this would make my nose and cheeks too oily but my skin just felt super soft after this.

For Oily Skin:
1 Banana, mashed, the riper the better because it still has a ton of nutriants in it.
1 tablespoon of honey
A few drops of lemon juice (I substituted with juice from a fresh orange, it smelled yummy!)

Apply mixture to face, leave on for about 10-15 minutes , then rinse with warm water. I wanted to eat this mixture. I found using a milk wash after this really made my skin feel glow-y.

Little extras that I love:

Lemons are wonderful, they're natural astringents.After washing your face,dip a cotton ball in fresh lemon juice and wipe over your face for some skin tightening awesomeness . Watch out for your eyes and avoid using this if you have any open cuts, obviously it's not the nicest feeling getting lemon juice in your eyeballs. I was surprised how much dirt came off my face when I used this, defintly a lot more than my store bought astringents.


Milk is also a nifty little beauty supply.Dip a cotton ball(How I adore those balls , hehe) in milk and wipe over your face, let dry, then rinse with warm water. Just watch how freakin' soft your face is. Don't use right after the lemons, it'll make your face smell like baby vomit. Use instead with honey or brown sugar scrubs for a more pleasant smell.

Honey is also another staple. I like to mix it with a little brown sugar and use as a lip scrub, rinse off and apply some vasaline for super soft puckers. This can get a little messy if the honey is super runny. Have a wash cloth handy or be ready to lick off your fingers when you're done.



If you're hung over cucumbers are your best friend, grind those bad boys up and use the mush mix all over your face. Cucumber Juice tightens the skin while hydrating it, throw some cucumbers on your eyes to help reduce under eye baggage.


Don't you look so pretty? Mhmm, yeah you do.

I miss Peterborough




I would totally be at the Only right now, having a Sir Perry's on the patio if I could.
