First things first, thanks again for all your love on Never Sleep!
It's doing far better than I could have hoped, over 750 comments, and reading them makes me so happy... Thank you all. <3
(Though if you'd like to see it do even better, come give it some more love!)
Lately, life has been a bit up-and-down... Mostly down, if I'm honest. (Or at least, it's felt that way.)
And I guess work isn't all bad when you get to do stuff like this, either:
(I look so tiny in this!)
And to be honest, when I think about it there have been many, many positives lately too:

First things first - Never Sleep finally hit MR!
The amount of support I've got from you guys is overwhelming; it's more than I ever expected and it just makes me so happy to be part of the site. At the moment it's at 95% and nearing 650 comments which I suppose could be better, but as my first set I'm just so grateful for all the love it's got. I'm proud of that thing
That said, I still would love you to head on over and give it some more affection I've read each and every comment and they make me so damn smiley!

So... Less than a month before my first set hits! It's about time for some previews, no?
Don't forget to keep an eye out for this one on April 23... Mark your calendars!
So how have you guys been keeping? Hope you've all had a great Easter and scoffed lots of chocolate
Life has been pretty same-y over here, there's nothing really exciting to report... Just keeping my head down, trying to work as much as I can, save money, stay healthy and enjoy time with friends.
Though we made a little exception to the "healthy" rule for Easter!
The boyfriend has also been getting me into Game of Thrones in a big way... I'm at the end of the first season and it's taking over my brain. So so good, can't wait to catch up to the newest season (please don't spoil anything for me!)

Phew, considering I didn't have much to talk about, long blog post was long... Maybe that should teach me not to leave so long between posts!
Till next time, SG!

So, last weekend was the London Shootfest...
I had the most amazing time, and met the most amazing, beautiful people... It was the first time meeting so many people from the site, and from a usually shy, socially awkward person it was incredible how quickly it felt comfortable.
I was originally only shooting one set, with Miro:
(But then the lovely Ante convinced me to shoot with her too, and I'm very glad she did!)
Both of my shoots were on the last day though, so I spent the first two wandering around, drinking lots of tea and perving on everyone else's sets.
On the Saturday night we all headed into London for a SGUK meet... It was a good (albeit short) night; my only regret is not saying hi to more people! (And wearing such big heels, walking back through London afterwards was a killer!)
A few of the girls brought Instax and Polaroid cameras so we ended up taking a ton of those... I absolutely fell in love with them. So awesome... As soon as my bank has recovered from this trip, I'm definitely getting my hands on one of these! Look how cool these are.
All in all, it was a pretty awesome weekend, where I got to meet some truly wonderful people. I feel so lucky to have had the chance to meet you all.
Much love goes out to Fische for all the effort she put into organising it, and to Miro, Ante, Chocolat and OwenG for being awesome photographers and shooting so many sets in such a tiny space and over such a short period of time... And to everyone that came and was awesome to be around! (I was going to link to you all individually, but I just know I'm gonna forget someone and accidently piss them off...!)
I miss the house already... My home town has never been so depressing to return to.
Looking forward to the next time, whenever it might be!

I hope all you beautiful people had a suitably loved-up Valentine's Day?
Valentine's has always confused me - it's baffling that a day dedicated to celebrating Love can inspire so much depression and just general grumpiness. I've been single for a good 80-90% of the Valentines I've had, sometimes I was happy about it, sometimes not... but I've never hated or dreaded the day. Who gives a fuck if you're in a relationship or not? Use it as an excuse to express love - to your family, friends, or yourself. Life doesn't begin and end at relationships. Cut out and ignore all the crass commercialism, and make Valentines your own, beautiful day. [/rant]

The weather's been crazy, we had a ton of snow the other week... I can't stand snow, and it was inches deep and kept on coming. Walking to work was hellish. It was pretty though:
And then, it pretty much disappeared overnight, it was kinda surreal.
Now we keep getting little glimpses of sunlight in the early day that seem to want to linger and get me all excited and happy:
Only for it to disappear into clouds which drench me with rainwater on my way into work.
Aahh, british weather, how I loathe you. Someone please kidnap me away to somewhere with lots of sun?
Kept my spirits high with lots of little things this month;
Treated myself to a set of James Jean's postcard prints, which are just gorgeous and even more so up close - if you haven't heard of him you should definitely check his work out (just as soon as his website starts working again!)
Really enjoying Hard Rock Cafe's cocktails at the moment, even if they are a little expensive for my ghetto budget; my favourite so far is Blue Devil. So nice.
I also discovered I like tea, surprisingly... Although it definitely doesn't even come close to coffee! I'm quite enjoying trying all the different types and flavours, it's a new experience. I have an unhealthy appreciation for hot drinks, haha. So far I've tried Assam, Ceylon and Gingersnap Peach

Ahh, there's so many good sets being released right now, it makes me happy to just be a part of the site... I loved seeing Radeo and Marlene on front page, such amazing sets. So beautiful. These have been making me happy too:
This set deserves way more love. You should totally watch the 
Ahh, this journal has been a rambly mess cause I'm all tired... Ahh. Wishing you all a beautiful February and a very loved up valentines day! Now excuse me while I go paint myself to sleep.

I've been working crazy hours at work - Christmas day will be my second day off in as many weeks, and I'm working anything between 4-11hr shifts, practically every day. I'm constantly bouncing back and forth between being hyped up on caffeine and sugar...
... And feeling utterly worn out and exhausted. Eyebags for dayyyys
My sleep hours are even more messed up than usual - yesterday I felt wide awake and couldn't sleep until I passed out in the bathroom at about 9am this morning. :/ Still, I'll be laughing when payday rolls around, I guess!
It's weird, because work itself isn't all that demanding at the moment - it's actually quite quiet, which leaves me sitting around trying to kill time by having fun with the reciept roll.
Endless chatterbox armies...
And doodlings...
(Any one else thinks the last one looks weirdly like Maisie? Completely unintentional, I was sat at a till so it's not as if I had any references... Weird. SG, you are taking over my brain.
)On a much, much lighter note - Christmas eve tomorrow!
I hope you're all excited!
I've been a bit disappointed in how festive I didn't feel this year - I guess I was too busy to let the season stop and sink in. I'm finally starting to feel it though...! Christmas songs on the overhead at work; and as of this afternoon's mad rush before my shift, all christmas shopping out of the way!
My cousin and closest friend has come home from Uni for christmas, and on my only day off last week, we fulfilled our yearly tradition of visiting the Christmas Markets in Manchester, which I love.
Good food was eaten, far too much money was spent; we discovered that Italian coffee (Coffee with a shot of Amaretto) is far nicer than Irish coffee (coffee with a shot of whiskey); then we got a little tipsy on mulled wine and spent the train ride home feeling merry and singing christmas songs.
Money's very tight, but I still couldn't resist getting my first ever Christmas jumper! Unless I had one when I was a baby or something, idk.
This thing is so cosy and comfy, my god. I never want to take it off... Lovelove.
Always snapping that camera...
Here's to a very Merry Christmas - or anything else that you celebrate! I wish you all a lovely week filled with friends, family, good food and drink and much love. <3
