So I kept to my word and went out and about to take some photos today. Went down the road to Richmond Park, which is an absolutely gorgeous part of London. The photos I took weren’t particularly good, but I enjoyed being out with my camera again. Was proper bored last night so I watched Jennifer’s Body, Russell Howard and Zack & Miri Make a Porno. All brilliant! I watched Zack & Miri last summer, so it was weird to see that again, but nice all the same… Had a lecture today about using Macs which was incredibly simple but made me realise how much I need one! There’s no way I can afford a new computer right now though, so I suppose that’s another thing to add to my list of things I’ll never be able to buy…

Lush weekend, most of which was spent in bed…! Not because I’m lazy but purely because I was incredibly content. Saw All Time Low on Saturday, they did a little acoustic set at a small venue just down the road from me and it was awesome. Even better, they played a gorgeous version of Remembering Sunday, which is easily one of my favourite songs. Back to reality today, another boring Monday where nothing much happens. I really can’t afford to but I want to go out and about and take lots of photos at some point this week. I haven’t taken any ‘proper’ pictures in ages, which seems ridiculous given that I’m doing a photography degree! Definitely going to get on it this week, though!

Happy happy happy today! The sun has been shining all day and now the stars are out. I’ve been shopping on Oxford Street and now I’m getting ready to go out for a cocktail party/ James Bond theme night. I’m wearing a little black dress and heels, which is something I pretty much NEVER do! I’ve always been a bit of a tomboy but for the first time ever, I feel pretty and girly tonight. I’m living in the city, I’ve got my own house, I’m studying a subject that I love, I’ve got the most amazing friends and family, both here and back home, and for now I have every reason to be happy so I’m going to celebrate tonight. Ooh and I’m seeing All Time Low tomorrow! AND I got my Photography grade back today for last semester - I passed!

So it’s official, I have a house! We went for another look round the other day and snapped it up, then went back today to sign all the papers and pay the deposit. I’ve always wanted a place of my own in London, so I’m a very happy bunny right now. The people I’m going to be living with are awesome and they’ve even let me have the biggest room! The last few days have been very up and down but I’m finally starting to get my head around things. I’m still all over the place, but I’m a lot better than I was. I had a very productive day today, with my friend making sure that I got lots of important things done so I’m feeling very positive as a result of that, despite feeling really ill today. I need to try and get well soon though cause I’m seeing All Time Low again on Saturday! Can’t wait!

Feeling a little bit cheerier today as the sun has been shining today and I’m sat here watching a beautiful sunset. I spent last night playing Call of Duty with my friend which was awesome, even though I really suck at it! Hopefully there will be lots more nights like that next year as we’re going to be living together, along with another of our current flatmates. We went to view three properties yesterday and all of us fell in love with one of them. It’s been reserved for us until Monday so we’ve got the weekend to think about it, but I think we’re all pretty set on living there. And even better, the landlord allows pets, so if he agrees to letting us have the place then we’re going to get a little kitty!
