    Back in Blue

    I’m back from my little break and I have so much to tell you. First thing’s first – I handed in a huge assignment today so I’m finally free from big pieces of school work for the rest of the year. It was a 2500 word essay and the longest one I’ve ever written. I really struggled with it but now it’s over I feel so free! I spent my evening tidying and cleaning my room because it’s just gotten in such a tip since I was devoting all my time to the essay.
    I finally went to see the dentist last week. You might have heard me complaining in the past about my wisdom teeth but the pain was intermittent and manageable, then I started getting pain up in my roots a bit further forward so I finally booked an appointment to get my mouth looked at. Turns out the pain is being caused by one of my wisdoms and I have to have it taken out. 
    Sorry if that was boring and gross!!
    And here’s the mani you guys wanted to see more of from my last post. For some reason, I’ve never posted a mani using this konad image before. I don’t know why, because it’s gorgeous. 
    The owner of Born Pretty Store, Jessica, sent me some nail art supplies to review and these little blue beads are one of the items. I got a whole wheel with 12 different colours of beads in! I just love this ‘bullion’ because, even though it’s a tad fiddly, it’s so easy to incorporate in to any manicure. However, if you want some of these beads, I would definitely recommend going for the separately packaged ones because the colours are starting to mix in the wheel.

    Leopard Got The Blues

    How do you like my new banner? I’m not too sure about it so I might make another one or go back to the old one soon.

    Barry M Mint Green

    I had my last exam today. I’m so so so happy to have them over, even though I think I failed 3 out of the 4.
    After the exam some friends and I went out for a pub lunch and just chatted for nearly 2 hours which was so much fun as I’ve been stuck inside for nearly 3 weeks. I was planning on going out with my friends tonight but decided to stay in eating, sleeping and watching movies since I haven’t really had a chance just to chill for the so long, but I’m looking forward to going out tomorrow – it should be a crazy night!

    Barry M Raspberry

    My mouth has been annoying me recently. My wisdom teeth have been causing me trouble on and off for years now but I’ve always just done my best to ignore it and wait for it to pass. I know I should really go to the dentist but I know they’re gonna say I need them out and I hate getting anaesthetic, doesn’t everyone?
    Anyway, my whole jaw has been aching for a few days now and I hate it but I’m handling it like a boss!
    I used a different camera for these two pictures and they’ve come out totally different colours! The first is most colour accurate but I love the second one because it looks so sunny and it’s nice to be reminded at this time of year that the sun still exists.

    Houndstooth

    I forgot how much I love this pattern. I had so many compliments about my nails yesterday. I think this houndstooth pattern is great because you can’t tell which colour is stamped on, it’s so seamless, the only problem is the size of the all over Bundle Monster patterns – they’re quite small and don’t always cover the whole nail which is when you get seams starting to appear!
