    I’m going to LANDAAN

    I’m going to London with my brother tomorrow and I’m sooo excited.
    We both have friends in a band called Crash and Berney who are playing in the Live and Unsigned Grand Final in the O2 Arena in front of thousands of people. They’ve worked so hard to get through the auditions and regional finals among thousands of entries and if they win, they will be offered a record deal. They are currently in second position in their category. How amazing is that?!
    Please go to their Myspace to listen to their amazing songs or Facebook for all the news and updates.
    They’ve already been featured on Mercedes Benz Mixed Tape and are destined for big things. So watch the video below to see them performing Fresh Prince of Bel Air and their original song Doo Doo Doo at the regional finals of the competition. It’s amazing, and I’m not just saying that because I know them!

    If you like them and want to see more of them in the future, it would be great if you vote for them. Voting closes 10pm (GMT+1) on Saturday 10th (tomorrow). Just text unsigned16 to 84222.(It will cost £1) Go to the voting page if you want to check out the competition.

    And here’s today’s Konadicure!

    Give Me Grapes

    Recently I have been eating sooo many grapes as part of my attempt to cut out the unhealthy snacks that I have a penchant for such as chocolate, sweets and cookies 😀
    Today I washed a fairly big bunch of grapes intending to eat a few and put the rest in the fridge but ended up eating the whole thing and not having room for dinner! So… yeah, I love grapes especially red ones 😀

    No top coat of NYC because I was distracted watching Arrested Development. I just started watching from number 1 this week and I love it 😀

    Black and the Beanstalk

    Using one of my new (old) Collection 2000 polishes today. I bought these on the weekend in a bargain store at 6 for £1! Bargain!
    All I will say is they are very old and either they are just made thin or something has been put in them to thin them out and it separates when they are sat in the box so they need a lot of shaking and are no good for stamping like lots of the old, thickened polishes I pick up for cheap!

    I’ve been working on the layout of my blog today. I hope you all like it.
    I’m not sure if I like it very much though and I will probably be changing it again very soon.
    I tried sponging today. Was going for a gradient but I think I need a bit more practice to perfect it.

    Examinations and their Procrastinations

    Sorry guys, but due to it being exam period at the moment, I haven’t had time to do a Konadicure for your musings today. I have had my head in books and lecture notes for the past two days, attempting to buff up on the basics of economics but I still feel pretty doooomed to fail 🙁

    Anyway, during one of my frequent procrastination breaks, I read around a few blogs including Susie’s Home and Hobbies. Her latest post was a really pretty Fauxnad design and I decided to buy the bundle of Fauxnad plates that she uses from Bundle Monster at Amazon.com.

    Since I am in the UK, it was $4.00 (£2.60) for shipping. I’m so excited to get these and hopefully by the time they arrive, I will be free from exams and free to Konadicure to my heart’s content!
