    Well this is embarassing…

    I’m normally a very organised person but this poll thing has me completely stumped. So, sorry, I feel bad for messing you all around. Anyway, the mani is blue because the last time I checked, before the second poll broke, blue had the most votes.

    I’ve started stashing goodies for my giveaway. There is no theme – I’m just picking up stuff here and there that I like and think all of you will like. At the moment, there are 11 polishes and some bits and bobs. I’m also going to take a leaf from Carli’s book and ask you what sweets/chocolate/candy you would like to try from the UK. And don’t worry, it will be very well organised!

    The giveaway so far:

    What fruit is this?

    I don’t actually think there is a blue fruit. I remember watching a Blue Peter once where they said that we are immediately put off food if it is blue in colour and if you think about it- it’s true. There are hardly any blue foods and definitely not ‘natural’ ones. The only blue food I can think I’ve ever seen is sugary stuff like sweets and icing. Any thoughts?

    Anyway…

    This is a new colour I picked up at Asda when I went looking for some new storage for my polishes.

    It was marked at £1.50 but came out at £1 ($1.45) at the checkout – I love it when that happens.

    I bought a plastic drawer set to house my collection – there are 4 drawers just the right size for most of my polishes but some of the taller bottles have be laid down. Like Sally Hansen’s and No7’s.
    It is just big enough to hold everything and the bottom drawer is dedicated to base/top coats and extra bits and bobs like all my plates, files and brushes etc.

    It was about £7 ($10) and no doubt I will be buying another one soon to keep up with my ever-growing stash.

    Sorry there was no post yesterday. I got barred from the Internet!
    In my university residences (I think it’s ‘dorms’ in America), if you try to use Peer to Peer software like Vuze, or any other bit torrent – you get your internet access suspended for an hour.
    Since the Vuze logo is really similar to the Photoshop one, I clicked on that by accident and got myself locked out just as I was getting ready to post this 🙁 It’s not even the first time I’ve done that either, haha.
    Last night I went to see 4.3.2.1 which is AMAZING. Got to be the best British film I’ve seen in ages. Definitely worth a watch. And the soundtrack was really cool too so I’m gonna get that a.s.a.p.
    Anyway, there should be another post later if I can control my clicks tonight and avoid another ban.
    I know this look really similar to yesterday’s colour but I promise it’s different!

    I had a bit of an accident with this one. Right after I’d finished, I managed to spill acetone all over my hand but I didn’t have time to do it all again so I just tried to shake it off – so that’s why it’s a bit smudgy. Haha.

    And I have to show you this. My laugh of the day came from a friend who showed me this video.

    What a jerk. He totally deserved that right?!
