Saying goodbye to 2012

Hello! I'm hoping you had a great Christmas (sorry for my lack of posts ahh), and got what you wanted; maybe you ate lots of food too? Please say you did because it would make me feel a lot better for consuming ridiculous amounts of food.
 It's almost the end of 2012, and that's a weird thing to think! 2012 has been good for the most part; I got into a whole lot of things such as a wide variety of bands, tumblr, guitar (got one for Christmas and so far so good I think!), blogging etc. 2012 for me has been the year where I changed quite a bit - I've got different interests and hobbies, a different sense of style, I take way more interest in how I look and I'm pretty sure that's a good thing, I've become more determined and if I had to say whether or not I've changed for the better, I'd say I've definitely changed for the better! My confidence has risen I think, well I guess it must have because I'm spilling my guts to you Internet people hehe. 
Overall I'd say 2012 has been a good year, and I'm definitely looking forward to the next part of saying goodbye to one year, which is saying hello to the other! I'm really excited to see what 2013 has in store, and hopefully I'll change and grow some more for the better, and my art, blog etc will change and grow with me. 
 Have any of you got New Years resolutions sorted out yet? Any plans for New Year's Eve? Hope so!

❄ Whimsical Winter Vibes ❄

Follow my blog with Bloglovin *I'd just like to start by apologising for my almost 2-week absence-I've been dragged down with coursework (luckily it's mostly textiles and art, which I enjoy) and any spare time I've had has been spent trying to spend time relaxing with friends. GCSE's (the grades you get at the end of secondary school, which is ages 11 to 16. You do them in year 10, which I'm currently in, and year 11) are much harder than I first thought, as the start of the year was relatively easy, but any work I've had to do in previous years seems easy compared to what I'm doing at the moment! It'll all be worth it though, so now onto the proper post!*

 It's finally December! I actually have an excuse to watch cheesy Christmas movies and listen to cheery Christmas songs, which is nice and saves me from weird looks while I dance down the road to an assortment of Christmassy music.

~MONTHLY STARTING ROUNDUP~

5 LOOKS I'M LIKING;

1.Cosy Jumpers
2.Baroque



3.Galactic

4.90's Sitcom
5.Vampy Lips



FOUR AMAZING SONGS;

Seeing as it's the month of Christmas, here are three alternative Christmas songs~


'Yule Shoot Your Eye Out' by Fall Out Boy

'Santa Stole my Girlfriend' by The Maine

'Merry Christmas Kiss My Ass' by All Time Low
  
And a traditional Christmas song for you all!~
'I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday' by Wizzard


THREE GORGEOUS FOODS;


These make me so hungry oh my god mmmm



I don't even like Christmas Pudding that much but it looks so nice oh my


TWO BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS FROM TUMBLR;






ONE AMAZING BLOGGER;


Go check out Mary of Birdie wears a tie! Her outfits are seriously gorgeous, her DIYs are wonderful and her blog is generally beautiful! (Also it is said she is a 'space angel ballerina' and that's pretty cool in anybody's books!)

<This is her, isn't that skirt pretty? She DIY'd it, and I'm pretty sure she DIY'd the flower crown too. 



















So there it is, the start of December! Hope you have a faaabulous day/night, and remember-'Be yourself; everyone else is taken.' (Oscar Wilde)

'My name's Darth Vader *heavy breathing* and you're watching Disney Channel!' Did you hear about Star Wars being bought by Disney? I'm not sure whether to be mildly horrified or glad that they're bringing out a 7th movie-the thing is Disney apparently bought Marvel yet The Avengers turned out pretty awesome, right?(Don't quote me on the buying out Marvel thing though I only found that out via the internet oops)

“I have known Joe Gordon-Levitt for going on 12 years. We first met in the summer of 2000 while doing a tiny movie called “Manic”, where we bonded over a mutual appreciation for Harry Nilsson and Nina Simone and I have been lucky enough to call him one of my dearest friends ever since. When we did “500 Days of Summer” 8 years later, we spent every lunch hour dancing to Marvin Gaye in the hair and make up trailer; we had loads of fun. I hope to do a thousand more movies with him because he’s simply the best.” - Zooey Deschanel
This film has to be one of my favourites and this photo aw aw awwww pretty lights cute facial expressions peeeerfect

Superquick life updates; I started stretching my ear (!!!), I downloaded and started to play the game 'The Witch's House/Majo no Ie' which super-creepy but I would definitely recommend, plus it's free so what have you got to lose?(apart from sleep), I made some stickers, lazed around and generally didn't have a very interesting week!

Hope you're having a splendid morning/day/evening/night/whatever, toodle pip and tally ho!

Is it too early to wear Christmas jumpers???

Today we had a non-school uniform day (finally, I hate having to wear my uniform all the time, it gets so boring) for charity, so I got a chance to wear my new Christmassy jumper!






Reindeer Jumper - River Island
Holographic Eye Necklace - Topshop
Shirt - New Look (but I studded it myself)
Skinny Jeans - New Look
Ear Stretcher - Topshop
Sad Flower Ring - Guide Camp (there was a tuck shop and this was the last ring, it only cost 20p!)

The weather's come for trips to town with friends, cosy little meetings in Starbucks, snuggling up and watching cartoons; for having late night conversations about everything and nothing with people you're comfortable with, for wearing jumpers (or sweaters as you might know them as).
 I love the transition into winter so much, as you can probably tell; I'm more suited to cosying up, wearing layers and walking around town past the German market that pops up every year without fail. 

Have a nice weekend, hope you have a spleeeendid time!

On wanting to start a band

 JUST A WARNING - THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF WRITING BUT THERE'S OTHER STUFF TOO DON'T LEAVE ME PLS

 I've been wanting to start a band for a while now. It seems like so much fun, just playing music with your friends, and seeing as I'm a lazy girl and all I do is sit at my laptop (I wish I was joking but I'm not) it would be something for me to put my unused effort into! The only thing, up until now, is that no-one would take me seriously - but today I started talking about it to Ada and she agreed, and seemed pretty excited for if we did start a band. I'm thinking of getting an acoustic guitar for Christmas, but my friend Martha says up until then she can lend me a guitar, and she's going to teach both me and Ada guitar! The only things now are getting a drummer and singer (Ada says she'll do bass, and I'll do normal guitar), and finding a band name etc. The whole band name thing is important I guess, because for anyone to take us seriously enough to even get gigs or whatever we need a FUNKY NAME WOOT WOOT.



Black Skinny Jeans, £25, boohoo.com
Purple Crushed Velvet Doc Martens, £110, styletread.com
Black Tank Top, £23, forevernew.com
Galaxy Round Neck Top, £20, oasap.com
Unicorn Pullover, £18, etsy.com
Black Jacket, £24, ginatricot.com
Crystal Ring, £3.50, Topshop
Pearl Triangle Ring, £6.50, Topshop

Stage-wise I've chosen mostly darker colours because if you're on a stage with lots of lights having to put a lot of effort in, you're most likely going to sweat, and black is the colour which sweat shows up least on haha ^.^ I wish I owned all of these clothes/shoes/jewellery ahh.


Bikini Kill looking pretty badass

More badass-ness

Excuse me while I wish I was allowed to go see All Time Low live *sobs*

Pretty flowery microphone things lalalaa

All band name suggestions are welcome guys, I will love you forever and reward you with xcupcakes and llamas and sloths and stuff if you suggest any names(◡‿◡✿)

It's ADVENTURE TIMEEEE

 Today I would like to share with you my intense (that's right, getting all super intense in here) love for Adventure Time. Adventure Time, for those of you who don't know, is an amazing cartoon created by Pendleton Ward for Cartoon Network. It's set in the Land of Ooo, about one thousand years after a nuclear war called the 'Great Mushroom War', and pretty much focuses on Finn the human and his adoptive brother Jake the dog, and the adventures and stuff they have (hence the name Adventure Time). 
 
The title card thingy

Sometimes it's all happy and kiddy-friendly, and sometimes it's kind of creepy, and that's what I love about it. It's not predictable, and it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside eeeee!

RAINBOW SICK (VOMIT) WHY NOT

dayummm finn your hair

THEY MADE THEIR OWN GENDER BENDER EPISODE ILY ADVENTURE TIME PRODUCER PEOPLE WHOEVER'S IDEA THIS WAS
The Lich King returns
Oh it's okay it's not like I needed to sleep tonight or anything nope not at all

This is BMO. BMO can play videos, tapes, dvds, video games etc; all whilst being fudging (family-friendly yay) adorable. BMO is basically amazing.

There are many many many plot twists that give me many feelings very sad feelings BUT I WON'T BOTHER YOU WITH MY RAMBLING AND CRYING INTO THE KEYBOARD.

Basically all I am saying is go watch Adventure Time if you don't already, and if you do COMMENT AND WE CAN CRY/FANGIRL TOGETHER.

~Jadeლ(́◉◞౪◟◉‵ლ)

P.S. This is only the start of my posts about Adventure Time expect more because I just love this show so much asdfghjkl

✰✰✰Ariel the Mermaid Pin✰✰✰

 Today was all round a faaantastic day! I got my phone unlocked, so now I can be on the internet WHENEVER I WANT (as long as I have mobile connection or whatever). I got a sewing machine, which is something I've wanted for a while now! Altogether it was just one of those days where everything went well (I even decided upon a Halloween costume - the eleventh doctor because DOCTOR WHO IS JUST THE BEST.). 
 When I went round my grandad's house to get the sewing machine(he lives really near us), I was looking through the box of threads and buttons and stuff when I spotted it. It was glittery, it was cute, it was disney. A 'LITTLE MERMAID' STICKER! I knew as soon as I saw it that it would make an adorable pin, so I asked if I could have it and as soon as I got home, I backed it with cardboard and stuck a safety pin to the back.
Is that not the best sticker ever? If you have a sticker you think is better, feel free to send me a photo and I will judge it(*´・v・)
I love the way there's glitter in her hair though, it just makes it that little bit more fantastic. It reminds me of when I was younger and collected tons of stickers, and at Christmas I asked for stickers and my mums friend gave me a whole box of stickers on a glittery background. I wish I still had them actually ;_;
Anyway, I actually have plans for once! Tomorrow I'm going to go to the library at the end of my road, then go round Alex's house (so glad I have a friend who lives really near to me, it'll literally take 5/10 minutes to walk there) and we're going to make Halloween costumes (◡‿◡✿) I JUST LOVE HALLOWEEN AND I'M SO EXCITED AHHH
CAN U SEE MY EXCITEMENT CAN U* 
HOW ABOUT NOW


Have a nice day/night lalalalaaa
