    Join The Dots

    I’ve spent my evening getting ready for tomorrow’s day trip. Some friends and I are going to a theme park called Drayton Manor which is about two and a half hours drive north and I am so so so excited! I always like to be prepared for these kinds of trips so I already have my rucksack filled with a packed lunch, spare clothes, camera and all the other standard day trip paraphernalia!

    Sorry I haven’t properly got back in to my blogging routine yet. I though that once I finished my exams I would be back to posting regularly but things are still very hectic. Anyway, I’m sure you’re tired of hearing my excuses so I won’t give you any more. Just know that I’m slowly but surely getting my blog-mentum back!

    I had my last exam on Monday and it’s such a relief to resume normal human activities like sleeping and eating! And of course it means I can get back to blogging more than once a week. Thank you to everyone that has liked my new Facebook page. I’m still working on getting lots of pictures up and just deciding how best to organise it!

    The Nailasaurus Has A Book For Its Face

    Exam revision procrastination has reached an all time high today and I decided to create a Facebook page for The Nailasaurus. I was going to make one after my exams anyway but I needed a distraction today. You can click here or on the Facebook button in the sidebar to visit and ‘Like’ the page.
    There’s some really good music surfacing at the moment so I thought I’d share some of my new favourites with you. These are the songs I’ve been playing on a loop since yesterday.
    Coldplay – Every Teardrop is a Waterfall
    Paramore – Monster
    Nicola Roberts – Beat of My Drum
    Aloe Blacc – I Need A Dollar
    Quite an eclectic mix there but some really good tunes. Have a listen if you’ve got time today

    Cat Got Creamed

    Does anyone remember the bottle of Manhattan 610k polish that’s on a tour of the world? It visited me here in the UK last October (post here) and is currently at its 9th stop in Illinois, US with Melanie.
    If you are interested in playing host to this polish and being part of the adventure, visit Melanie’s post here to put your name down. You do need a blog where you can post your mani but that’s the the only requirement.

    Todays nails were heavily, okay wholly, inspired by Marta’s recent post over at Chit Chat Nails which you can see here.

    This W7 polish is one of my all time favourites. I had a bottle of this all the way back when my collection was 15 strong but unfortunately it went all lumpy and weird so I had to chuck it. I thought you couldn’t get this colour any more but I spotted a bottle in a bargain shop that sells all kinds of odds and ends and snapped it up right away!

    I Might Miss My Day At The Races

    Things are pretty hectic with my exams at the moment but I’ll be squeezing in a post when I have time! My last one is on Monday and it can’t come fast enough.
    I’ve seen loads of swatches of the new Cult Nails collection – A Day At The Races – and I fell in love with a few of the colours. However, they’re a bit out of my normal ‘price comfort zone’ for polishes but after some coaxing from a few ladies on Twitter and Maria herself (the owner of Cult Nails) informing me that they were running an offer that ends today, I ordered 4 bottles. The shades I chose are Let Me Fly and Cruisin’ Nude from the ‘Races’ collection (swatches here and here), and My Kind of Cool Aid and Iconic from an older collection.
    BUT, I saw a blog post from Cult Nails (here) this morning explaining that they’re having some problems with international shipping regulations after one customer’s order was destroyed before she received it because the contents broke some rules. So all international orders are on hold for the time being. It’s kind of annoying that I may not get my order, but better that than Maria risks posting it and something horrid happening to the package.

    Lol at the missing handle, I think the bottle got trodden on once a long time ago and the lid cracked to pieces.
