take a photo of myself every day
right then, where to start...

ok so for starters how am i going to do this?
Im thinking by the end id like to make a video out of them so back to how;
i’m thinking my options are to either put my camera in the same position and take the photo from there, or should i take the photo at a certain time every day to illustrate where i am???
Right im thinking a camera in the same position, but the shots can be at anytime of the day. I’m thinking i wanna do this for at least a month, here goes.

well i'm nearly there.....

i’ve been thorough and packed loads into bin liners; shoes, bags, and clothes. I’m nearly done.I think i just need to double check my bags and then get em sent off. I could start selling them on ebay, but i dont really want the hassle, and its just better with the money going to a good cause.

December - YORK :D

So went to York yesterday with my dad, really enjoyed it. The buildings are beautiful, and I loved walking down the Shambles, just reminded me of HarryPotter and Daragon Alley (??), also visited York Minster, and climbed the 275 steps up the central tower, omg you need to be really fit and well it nearly killed me, the view was great, but i didnt really appreciate it i was so out of breath, everything is so close – the minster, shambles and main highstreet, plus their was a crafts market on, brilliant!

Discworld!

So… I read the Angels Game and whilst it was an exceptional book, its was nowhere near as good a story as the shadow in the wind. Still I guess it was my expectations that were too high, it was a really good book; just in a different way.
Unseen Acidemical (I think thats spelt correctly) by Terry Pratchett, was my next offering which was classic Pratchett and I savoured every line :D
Love going back to thee discworld, good times.

Well lets say i have a dirty blonde hair colour, which i faintly like, it has highlights and well i am quite happy with but i want a change i mean im 22 and always wuss out, im scared if i never do ill regret never dying it sooooo, two weeks ago i got a temporary colour for red which i really liked. this week ive temp dyed it a copper/ orange colour. Now im thinking should i go for it, what colour, and also i don’t want to loose my highlights/low lights, while i contemplate it i might just stick to temp dyes. lol im so indecisive :S



learn the guitar

sooo i got my guitar in august, and basically so far i can only do chords and basically strum, but a plus note i have learned oasis’s wonderwall, sea of love, and paramore – the only exception, whilst im making my way onto a mouldy peaches song. Ill do some riffs eventually ….. :D
