1 week

In one week I will be eating lots of pasta and preparing myself for the 10k charity walk I will be embarking upon at half 10 at night in my leopard print all in one, in aid of the pilgrims hospice.

So I'm having a chill out day and updating my music with a playlist which will keep me walking on the night and thinking that I really should start learning my guitar soon. So as I write this and take my pictures I am listening to two really good songs called hobo girl and beautiful morning light both by the fruit bats, so yeh have a listen. The first picture is the pattern around my guitar which I think looks really cool, and I would love for the pattern to be put onto a bracelet, and the second picture is of the neck of my guitar.

Long weekend

 

I've given up trying to do this every day as I've had exams and I can't update it when I'm at my dads, I will try and write and upload a picture as often as I can so keep your eyes peeled
Well I am now at the end of compulsory education and only have to go into school for 4 hours a week as I'm on study leave, after being in school this morning I am now sat with a beer, the tunes blasting and the sun shining, I am one happy girl

Day 50

Thought I would try and find something that looks old and cool, and as my dads house is made from old boat parts this steering wheel? is in the hallway opposite the stairs so like quite high up, but yeah I really like it

Day 49

Having to try and catch up again as I have been at my dads house, anyway I was laid in bed Monday night, feeling all phillosphical so here it goes, you have to keep on the right line of life, with a clear view of what you want to achieve, otherwise the world will chew you up and spit you back out in the complete opposite direction, I'm still trying to create this view, worried that this is what the world is going to do to me, but maybe it'll be an adventure, so maybe I will let it?
so let me tell you the real story of this photo, I was laying in bed Monday night no picture had been taken and I had no ideas at all, I looked up at my ceiling for inspiration, and saw the old wooden beams that are in my room, and I thought hey that would make a pretty good picture, but I do quite like the thought provokingness of what I previously wrote
so until tomorrow kids which is going to be written in a few minutes

Day 48

woo my eye!
I find them really fascinating
they're supposed to tell what you are thinking, well when I took this I was thinking if anyone saw me right now they would think I'm a right nutter, does my eye actually say this? no? I didn't think so either!
anyway just a quick post today, as I'm going to my dads soon, so wont be able to do it later

Day 47

As I'm not doing alot I thought I would do it now, looking forward to a Chinese late as mums friend from London is coming, and I thought I would stick some photos on the airing cupboard in my room, as it looks really boring and out of place as the rest of my room is black and white, I also thought I would see what sunglasses I have as it is almost summer, and I thought with a little editing these would look pretty cool

Day 46

Was so tired after horse riding last night that I didn't feel up to doing my blog but here it is, so yeah the other day I missed some earthy world day, so I thought I would take a picture of my new bin which is so cool, and my granny shoes that I love to pieces and with a little editing on my new editor they look pretty antique, but yeah just a quick one as I really didn't do much apart from school, and realising how boring my life is!

Day 45

Most people are probably thinking right now, Polly are you on crack, why have you taken a picture of water in a weird glass sat on a book shelf, whilst many of you ponder over this for a few seconds, the word nine is going to pop into your head, well that's what my friends have told me so if it hasn't worked for you get off my blog ;)
well in fact its a cool piece of subliminal messaging :P the DVD 'nine' is in the background signalling probably the last age of your life where you haven't felt pressured to do something right and to succeed and think about the future, where you were still living your childhood, ready for the coming ages where you are categorised into brainy any un-brainy ready for secondary school. I want to go back to the age of nine, I use to be such a happy child and now I'm sat here, having to decide the rest of my future, hence the unclear water in the picture, sixth form or college, my dream of travelling, or my dream of being a social worker, so many hard decisions to make   in such a short space of time, I guess what I'm trying to say is to follow your heart, and do what makes you happy, like when in your childhood when the hardest decision was whether to play tag or kiss chase :)

Day 44

Well it rained so much today!
But it has been a really good day, today was a careers day with the Harvey and so I spent most of my day there with a few of my friends and went to mcdonalds at lunch I've also decided that I'm going to go travelling for a year before I go to uni as I'm getting pretty fed up of education, but i can see myself travelling for more than a year and not bothering to come back! so I had a long chat with the gap year travel manager that was there and she gave me a booklet to have a look at

Day 43

Today was pretty much the same as yesterday my life is really not exciting at the moment! :(

all I seem to be doing is revision for exams which is horrible as there isn't long left but its all good because its nearly my 16th :D so my pictures today are of one when I was a little girl, and you have to admit I was cute ;) and a picture of me now

Day 42

Hate school so much it is so pointless
I will upload a photo for today in the coming days but I want to take a picture from my dads for it so its going to be a little late
Today I really haven't done much, went to school, got home and revised so I was going to take a picture of my dads marathon time but forgot so I wont be able to take one till Sunday sorry!

Day 41

Having to catch up again! sorry
well today I went to Essex to take my brother back to uni :(
but yeah only a quick photo today, armed with my coke I was set for my journey
I'm also congratulating my dad for running the London marathon in 3 hours and 43 minutes so proud of him :')

Day 40

And this is for today,
My life is so weird, one night, take last night for example, I didn't get home until the early hours of the morning, and the next day, today, I'm in bed by half ten, so bizzare!
The next photo, I thought the light bulb in my lamp looked really cool, and I'm actually quite fascinated by them, a simple switch of a light can change a whole situation, save someone's life, the rebirth of energy etc etc, but as it was fairly dark in my room I had to guess at what I was taking a picture of which is why the full bulb isn't in it but I think it looks cool like this, I also have no clue what the thing in the top left corner is as my finger was no where near the camera, and I don't know what the line is either, so if anyone would like to kindly enlighten me, it would be very appreciated.

Day 39

This is for yesterday as I wasn't really in a sober enough state for completing this
And I've been worrying about one of my best friends as she had to go to hospital after banging her head as she was pretty much paralytic whilst we were all tripping on the waltsers...they were amazing
but yeah this photo is of a ride that make me feel so sick but it was so good, I think one of the reasons it was good, was because we got on for free?

Day 38

Was at my dad's last night, hunger games= amazing
Anyway I always look forward to coming back to my mums house as I never feel at home at dads
whereas I do at my mums, that's why I took a picture of the word that sits right by my front door

Day 37

Woo I have properly caught up today!
Haven't been to school today as it is target setting so basically just a day off,
So I went to the beach, both photos are of Greatstone beach but the second picture reminded me of one that my dad showed me from when he was little so I tried to recreate it, that's why I used the antique editor on photoscape

Day 36

Well it's the second day of school, so alot of hairspray was needed for having to get up early and to cope with this horrible weather so nearly a whole can later I was ready to attempt going outside, just a quick one today

Day 35

First day back at school, and I have already been issued with two detentions, woops, but today I have been pretty ill and got sent home at lunch and i have spent the rest of the day sleeping
this is a photo of a heart with my name on it it originally was attached to a bear, and it had a sticker on the heart saying gorgeous girlfriend, not wanting to throw the heart away as I thought it was cute I wrote my name on it and I am going to stick it on my wall

Day 34

Apologies for not updating this every day, but as you can see I have been catching up with it!
Life is pretty busy at the moment and I've been ill and banned from my laptop which is why this has been late.
So yeah this is for Sunday, I had a pretty relaxing day of doing nothing ready for the hectic week of being back at school.
This photo is of some lights in my living room that were pretty calming for the mood I was in when I realised school was the next day, but this is a really rubbish photo and I apologise!

Day 33

                                                                        "Are you drunk?"

To answer your question mum I am not!
This is a quick photo today as I spent most of the day at the pub with my mum, and yes this is a photo I have edited of a photo that's already in my room but I love it so much I have to show the rest of the world

Day 32

Today I realised it is actually the last day of the half term, so after spending half an hour being miserable after realising this I noticed that I have actually done quite alot in these two weeks and that in actual fact it feels like it has been the six weeks summer holiday rather than just the two.

Day 31

Today I realised I need to do a lot more revision than I have been doing so I sat down and did 4 hours of psychology revision, feeling pretty pleased with myself now, but thought it would be a bit boring if I took a picture of any revision so I took one of a flower in my hallway

Day 30

Today after making my sister cry I made her like me again with a packet of jaffa cakes :')
Not much to say really, today has been spent doing revision, watching skins and being beaten up by my sister who came home saying oi Polly want a fight you willy?

Day 29

Today after missing him quite a lot I walked to Rob's house, as we had the house free we made the most of his speakers and put the music on full blast to really annoy his neighbours who are in fact really moany which I later learned when they came to the house and had a go at us

Day 28

Today is the sad journey from one home to the next, we travelled back from Yorkshire today and my mum took me straight to my dads, as I was sat bored in my room I realised how quickly this year is going and that it is in fact nearly my birthday, you may be sat thinking oi Polly the dates don't match you've crossed off too many! and you would be exactly right to say that, but I'm blaming it on my sister for distracting me and telling me the wrong date

Day 27

Well today my little cousins came over for the visit that is always dreaded as my auntie tends to be a bit of a control freak, so I was already drinking the vodka at half 11!

but it has actually been a good day, I helped my cousins with an Easter egg hunt that my mum created and I got £25 so a bit of shopping is going to be done with all my Easter money when I'm home!

The picture is where an egg on the hunt was found, in my grandmas pot where she keeps some of her gardening tools

Day 26

Now this really is like being at home

today we went to the outskirts of hull to a place called Kirkella to visit my granddad sadly we couldn't see my cousins who are like sisters to me but we are going to see them in July so it's ok

I have been here so many times that i know so many people and I know where everything is, so its like a second home, after going for lunch at the beach tree we went for a walk along the sea front by the Humber bridge and to the nature park there

This brang back fond memories from when I was a little girl running to the ice cream van that was always sat there, mum also recalled lots of memories when she use to come down here as a teenager and sit in her boyfriends car after school, it made me think about how quickly you grow up and that you really should make the most of every day

Day 25

Today we went into the town centre but with it being good Friday quite a few of the shops were closed, my mum and grandma got a few new bits but none of the shops are descent so I didn't get anything! But my grandma gave me my Easter egg today as she didn't want my cousins getting upset on Sunday that they haven't got a good one like mine!
The picture is of a wooden heart that my grandma bought my mum to hang on our front door, with a bit of editing, as mums slightly obsessed with decorative hearts

Day 24

'Home and Garden'
Today I had a long journey from Folkestone to Driffield (Yorkshire) to stay with my grandma for a few days, this is one of the many things she has in her home and once again it is not English! but I thought it looked quite sweet and homely as I feel Yorkshire is more my home than Kent!

Day 23

Do you not find it weird that hardly anything is actually English any more, today I was travelling to Folkestone from my dads house, and i was only with my many thoughts as I had forgotten my iPod, so I sat there thinking why do we take inspiration from so many other countries, can we not set our own standards?

Day 22

Today I went to the beach again with my 'friend' Rob, and then decided to look round my house for cool patters to take a photo of. This is a pattern that was on a box, and to begin with the stripes were, different shades of white and red in verticle lines of different thickness, although i did already like the pattern I thought I would have a play around with the effects on my photo editor.

Day 21

At my dads today and I'm pretty bored, I went to the beach for a bit with my friend Rob and ventured home to leave a big pile of sand outside my front door which my dad later made me sweep up, today the house was so quiet as me and this scarecrow were the only people home

Day 20

Last night was pretty eventful but stayed at my friend Shannon's house, this photo is actually from last night as I did not have the opportunity to take one today as my day has been pretty boring apart from going to Nando's for the first time :D I took this photo because I spilt vodka on it and although it looked normal in real life through the eyes of my phone it looked this really nice purple colour

Day 19

Today I went into Folkestone and went down some weird stairs and took a quick picture of a really ugly plant hence why its in black and white so you cannot see it that much! Sorry it's only a quick one but im going out tonight and do not think I will be in a sober enough state to take a photo!

Day 18

Well my moods seem to be pretty shitty at the moment but its ok because I have realised why, but anyway in one of my down moods i munched my way through the gorgeous 1500 calorie Easter egg my best friend got me. And the picture on the right, Do you look at the glass half full, or half empty? Do you look at this picture and see loads of weird circle things or just a lampshade?

Day 17

Love you Kegan today wasn't good bye Tia said lots of people were there to see you, you were loved by so many! trust me this isnt goodbye its now just a waiting game for years to come when we can see you again, ate my little heart out in my tub of ice cream whilst trying to cheer up Tia, you better be proud, you know how stubborn she can be :') <3

Day 16

RIP Kegan, so sorry I cant come to your funeral tomorrow but I just want you to know that although you use to always wind me up and piss me off that you always made me smile, in fact you always made lots of people smile, I know we were not that close but I want you to know I will never forget you and I will be thinking about you at 12 o'clock tomorrow and so will lots of other people as we all love you and hate the fact you have left us
Love you Kegan

Day 15

woo cant believe how many lovely sunny days we've had, really looking like summer, cracking open the drinks in the sunlight with the bestest friends, summer better be good! but if its anything like the few days ive had its going to be one to remember

Day 14

its sunny again :D
in such a good mood, apart from the fact I have a massive lindt Easter egg sat next to me but I'm not allowed to eat it because I need to give it to Natalie on Friday as me and my friends decided to be cool and do secret bunnys!
second picture is of my absolutely rubbish drawing skills on a really cool iPod game, just casually wanted to show the world how bad I am
and my last photo is my proper photo, its the top of my alarm clock which I thought looked pretty cool so I took a photo and played around with the effects on PhotoScape
