Feb 14: A lack of words

I am feeling slightly depressed, actually not really, just a little sad but not even sad describe accurately how I'm feeling. I seem to be experiencing a lack of words. It could be more disappointment. Okay so I look up sad in the thesaurus and I think better words to describe how I feel are cheerless, wistful and dismal.
It may be caused by the amount of homework I have looming over my head, that it is hot stuffy and humid which makes my sister and mother very temperamental or the fact that it is Valentine's Day and I have never had a proper valentine. It's probably the first option, plus my baby brother is my valentine (not that that is weird), he takes good care of me.

So due to that I have come up with a(nother) list of things I love:

1) The Lizzie Bennett Diaries: Anyone who loves, likes or even remotely enjoys Jane Austin is sure to like this new adaption in a web series. I have been following it since it first started about 10 months ago and I was hooked from the very first second. Linked is the very first episode. I am so emotionally involved in it it is insane.

2) Soul Pancake: I found this site this week and it is possibly the reason I have so much homework not done. Opps. It really is great. It is basically a whole lot conversations about things that matter (art, culture, science, philosophy, humour and spiritual things). I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

3) Tom Law: If you haven't heard of this guy yet, I'm expecting some extravagant thankyou's after you have. Plus he is super *insert adjective here* (my choice words are: sexy, cute, gorgeous, amazing, supermegafoxyawesomehot?). He does alternative covers and writes his own songs. He definitely needs more recognition.

This is my favourite song he wrote. It's called 'touch my skin'. I hope I have you hooked.

I hope you had a better Valentine's than me.
Until next time,

Feb 3: Things I love

I am taking a break from homework (something I do not love) and giving you an insight into my life mainly things I like.
The first thing that I am loving at the moment and have been ever since I got it for Christmas an album called Moonfire by Boy and Bear. I am yet to find a time where it is inappropriate to play. It suits everything from road trips and cooking to homework and cleaning. My favourite song on the album is probably Golden Jubilee.

Second thing I am loving is my Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey. It has a minty fresh sent that I love and it's perfect for everyday. It's light weight and last for ages. I can't say a bad thing about it. I need to get some more colours in it, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Third, in lieu of Valentine's day I stumbled upon this website which has some really cute and creative date ideas which I am definitely looking forward to trying out even if they are just with friends.

The fourth thing is this Ginger Bread recipe by sorted food though slightly modified by just adding 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, half a teaspoon of nutmeg and 2 teaspoons cocoa. Everyone in my house loves them. They are so good and easy to make.

And lastly the fifth thing is a blog I love La vie en rose et moi with Meg. She is absolutely gorgeous and has fantastic style. I think you all should check her out.

Until next time,
Liana xx
