Flashing Lights; Part Deux...

Kanyes new vid for his new track 'All of the Lights' ft Kid Cudi and Rihanna...


I like the vid but im sure theres some sorta (subliminalmessages in there somewhere...


RiRi lets it all hang out, if ya know what I mean *wiggles eyebrows* (shes my girl crush at the moment)


Kid Cudi looks tired or high or a combination of both...but I still heart him 


Oh yea, if you have photosensitive epilepsy then I don't advise you watching this...seriously

Chekkit out....

Bon Bon Vie: A Place of Her Own

Bon bon vie = good good life (in French)


As my blog is called 'Life...And Other Things', I decided to include a section entitled 'Bon Bon Vie'...it will feature pics, words, memories etc to remind me that even though things are hard at the mo, we still manage to live a good good life!


My friend recently bought a place of her own and she officially opened it up for business by having a lil soirée in her flat...


We ate, we drank, we were merry....


Not quite sure what was going on here...


"Aww, you made it!"

My girl and I, lookin mighty flyy!
Back2back soundclash- with their mobile phones -_-


"I have a cake? But it's not even my birthday!"


Me and the home owner!

Well done babygirl...well proud of ya!

'Nothing ventured, nothing gained...'

I'm tryna pursue that elusive feeling we call 'happiness'... i'm currently focusing on my career related happiness...

I've been interning on and off now for about 4 months and it is well tiring...you're basically working for free... lifting, carrying, sorting, phoning, emailing....alot of ings really!

These placements have been in Press Offices for well known high street shops, one of which was ok, another of which was *thumbs down* and the one im currently doing is really good...so far...it's only been a week but ya know...

In order to keep my head above water financially, i've also been working in the evenings (NOT as Lady of the Night mind you!) but in a call centre...doing...market research *shudder* and before you ask; YES it is depressing....

This is how my day goes:

07:30 :- wake up

08:30 :- leave house and go to internship in Oxford St

09:30 :- arrive at internship and commence all the 'ings' mentioned earlier

16:00 :- leave internship and head to call centre in central London (peak travel time...London Underground...need I say more?)

17:00:- start shift at call centre (non-stop talking *dry mouth*)

21:00 :- leave call centre and head home

22:00:- arrive home and scrounge around in the kitchen in order to fill my belly

23:30 :- bed time

I know that this may not sound like much to some people but it's alot for meee, I aint used to all this labour, my whole body aches and my eyes feel heavy all the time :-( 

I just hope and pray that this hard work and effort pays off but you know what they say...

The Battle Within...

Last week Friday I went to watch 'Black Swan'... iLoved it!


Anyone who's seen it knows that it's about the battle within...all of us have both good and evil inside of us...it's just about what you decide to act upon...


These two pics are a result of me messing around on my laptop...


My WHITE Swan....                                                           

                                                          
                                                                                                 aaaawwww


My BLACK Swan....

                                   
                                                                     grrrrrrrr!




I know which side I listen to....most of the time ;-)

Original Skankers

House Party:

This film SHAPED MY YOUTH!...

I STILL haven't mastered that shoe-tapping routine yet....

2nd Time Lucky....

I was really really really bored earlier on today so I ended up on my first attempt at a blog .... I read all my posts and found it interesting reading...I reflected on how far i've come in the two years since I started it, what's changed, what hasn't and what needs to.


My first blog is a true representation of my personality; random, weird (in a good way) and a bit chatter box-y and while all those characteristics are cool in person...in a blog, they don't work so well...


I haven't really decided what kind of blog this is gonna be but I just know that imma be ALOT more attentive and adhere to certain blogging etiquette that I have observed others apply to their blogs...


Long story short, i'm gonna start blogging again....cos it just feels right....
