Pop Tart

So, I may or may not have admitted it yet, but I am a HUGE fan of Strawberry Pop Tarts, yep that disgustingly unhealthy plastic candy amazingness. My obsession is getting far worse, thanks to my Mother, who keeps buying them, meaning whenever I go and visit I always return home with boxes. What makes it even more ridiculous is that I recently discovered that they make Hello Kitty branded Pop Tarts, in Meow Berry flavour, could it get more perfect? My favourite munch adorned with my favourite, incredibly anti-feminist mouthless Kitty? Well yes it could, I could find a stockist for the damn things, instead I shall just have to stare longingly at the image of the box and cross my fingers they one day appear in cyber candy.

Karl bag.

My Karl bag arrived today. I love it, I'm going to use it when I wear my Anna Wintour Tshirt.

New Year's resolution Part 2

Gaining skills, not loosing weight.

1. Learn Yoga

2. Do more than contemplate learning to drive, renew my now expired driving license and book some lessons.

3. Learn origami

4. Learn how to meditate.

5. Travel alone for more than a week.

6. Roast something that is edible

7. Cook something new every month. A meal not a pop tart

8. Pitch a tent and sleep in it.

9. Climb a mountain

Inspired by Alice Du Parcq's 'Life Lessons' in The Sunday Times Style, to be enforced by Alissia Durbridge, who has her own list but no blog.

Resolutions....

Every year I make New Year's resolutions and every year I break them on the first day, mainly because something occurs which destroys them eg. Last years 'Don't eat junk food during January' failed miserably as I was hungover and only a Lotteria takeaway burger would suffice.  However, maybe if I put more effort in I will actually get somewhere. In no particular order of importance my NYE resolutions for the year 2011 are as follows

1. Loose a stone
2. Save money
3. Buy quality not quantity
4. Tidy on a regular basis
5. Eat healthily and exercise.
6. Read more

The standard six, will probably always be the standard six, unless fingers crossed this year I develop a passion for exercise and obtain a vast wad of cash from somewhere. Number 3 stems from buying pointless amounts of budget crap that falls apart when I should just grit my teeth and pay more (mainly in reference to clothes) I have already attempted at No 1 and No 5, by booking a BMF taster session and enquiring about Yoga classes (and the way they work out their concessions prices - No2?)

7. Meditate
8. Travel more (I have booked a holiday to Amsterdam for Feb already...)
9. Contemplate learning to drive
10. Be more organised (It would help if I could find the paper version of my resolutions I scawled out earlier in the day)
11. Pass PGCE (obviously)
12. Find a nice flat (Not to buy, just one that isn't full of psychotic morons)
13. Cook more (Sophie Dahl shall help me with this)
14. Go to the library (and don't get fines!)

Question #1

How would you describe your style?

I aim for boho/rockchick but end up as Tragic, not in a good way.

Until February 21st...

My life now involves around 'Project 1', the Medium Term Plan and extended essay for my PGCE, I have decided to focus on the poem London by William Blake. Could be interesting, I shall keep you informed of my (lack of) progress.

I wish I had time to watch these films...

Dreaming of a coat...

I'm obsessing over this Sheepskin jacket worn by a fourteen year old in December Vogue. It's listed as Topshop, but as always, their customer service department have no idea what I'm talking about.
