Bits and Pieces

I thought I would show you the "creative process" *ahem* that is A-level life. Here's a corner of the den where the computer and TV is. Notice to the bottom left of the photograph most of my A-level notes - if anything happened to them I'd probably die or something similar! You can also see two boxes of Lucky Charms I've been munching my way through - although I stopped a while ago and one is probably out of date... any takers?

A close up of the desk area. There is the ever-present To-Do list and cup of tea. There is also always handcream, nail varnish, candles and enough pens, books and random bits of paper (which usually have vital bits of information on them...) to sink a ship nearby. All around my computer screen are little quotations I like - most of them Bible verses which are important to look at when I'm ready to kill someone with the amount of work I've got to do. But today was a very productive day - I got lots done and the place is now tidy.

This is one of the things I did today. Some of you may remember last year I ordered some moo cards - the reason I wanted them was so I could make a couple of collages out of favourite photos I've taken. This is one (not stuck down) for my time in the States - surrounding the wee cards are airline tickets, tickets into places like Disney, hotels and subway etc.

This is the other design for the America one - exact same photos/cards (I don't like the lilac background, I was just messing about) but not so much business round the edges. I can't decide which one! Any suggestions?

This is the other collage I did. Again, it's not stuck down just yet. This one is a more general theme - there are lots of nature/scenic shots but there are also photos of Romania and Spain in there.

I thought I'd introduce you to the best fizzy drink in the world - pink lemonade! The photo was taken in bad light - it's lighter and more translucent-y than that shows. But it's amazing - if you live in Saintfield you can get it in Jacksons! But it wasn't until Val presented me with a bottle after lunch that I realised you could buy big bottles! What have I been missing out on?! And it's an ooold bottle style - the top/cap bit with the metal. It is just really cool - I'll probably rinse out the bottle when I'm done to keep because it's really pretty!

And, a final picture of what my car looked like tonight when I came out of yf after church. It's March - are you kidding me?! Although hopefully something awful will have happened to the pipes in my ancient school so we may actually get the Bank Holiday off - we go to school in the HOME of St Patrick and we don't get the day off?! Should have went to a Catholic school... Anyway, in attempts to clear my car I had the super clever idea to just bring my window down and then push all the snow out of the way. Have you guessed what happened? Yeah.. a large proportion of the snow came back in on me! Pants! Oh well, it did the job...

That lemonade looks delish!

Great collages - I love the leaves on the one background.
