Mar 31: I Love Easter (& other things)

Hello all and welcome to past me,
This is a pre-scheduled post because I am away not camping because my mother "doesn't do camping", but at our beach house for the weekend, weekend being the loose term for 5 nights.
So as you may be aware judging by the number of chocolate eggs and bunnies that are around, it is Easter. *yay! happy dance* Right now I am probably sitting in a great big chair eating piles of chocolate reading a book. I have a great life, it will make me fat but it is great.

Once again it is time for my Things I like-quite-a-bit Post:
Starting it off is that app I am using to keep myself organized - Astrid: It's basically a to do list that I have synced with my iPad, Phone and Laptop to keep myself on track and focused on what I want to do in the day. I have long term list and lists of things that need to be done today and it's a great way for me to stay on top of all the homework that has been set. It has a cute little octopus as it's mascot and it sends me cute messages when I miss calls. It is available on apple products, on Android and on the web.

Another thing I am liking quite a bit is this youtube channel. It is called The Brain Scoop and while I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea, I do recommend it to anyone who like biology, animals, and nerdy things. The host, Emily is a volunteer at the Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum and she takes us though various parts of the museum and there are also some dissections and some Q&A's and other awesome things. She also makes some of the best one-liners I have ever come across. It's funny, it's cute, it's a bit disturbing at some stages and educational but don't get scared by that.
Here's a video:



Also I am quite liking what I've been having for breakfast for the last week, which is hot porridge with a bit of cinnamon, nutmeg and brown sugar to taste, finished off with some dried cranberries. Yummy! There isn't really any specific way to make it, just however you would usually make it and then eat.



I hope you had a Happy Easter and a wonderful Easter Break, for me daylight savings ends on Sunday night (which should be present me's tonight), which is sad but it means that I won't be waking up in them dark for a little bit.

Until next time,
Liana xx

P.S. The new Dr Who comes out tonight (present me)!!! I'm so excited! :D

UPDATE: So I made a mistake. Daylight Savings doesn't end until next week, a little mix up caused by Easter being early.

Mar 27: forgotten photos + OOTD

Oh hey people I haven't talked to for a while,
How are you? (you are not obliged to answer, though I do like comments *hint hint*)

I just realised that I took photos for you over the weekend and I haven't had time to put them into a post yet. (That may have been caused by a classics essay/test/extended response thing, it don't really know what it is)

Subject: Outfit of the day (OOTD)
Date: Sunday
Who: Myself and best friend Erin (who is yet to be mentioned)
For: Brunch (defined as either the meal between breakfast and lunch or as a combination of them both resulting in the need for neither).
We both had half breakfasts, which for me was more than what I normally eat for breakfast, consisting of 1 egg (fried sunny side up), a piece of toast, the best hash brown we have ever tasted, some mushrooms cooked in something, a cooked tomato (+ her's because she doesn't like them) and bacon because you can't have enough bacon (well you probably definitely could). I also had a chai latte and a pot of tea though not at the same time, that would be weird.
Weather: Sort of cold but not cold enough for a jacket but not warm enough for a dress. luke warm? mild? balmy? overcast?

Anyway onto more pressing matters,  I am wearing:
Shear floaty dress that I am wearing as a shift top/tunic (I think it was handmade as there are no tags and I bought it from a little boutique) over dark wash jeans, belted with an old belt found at my aunts house and layered necklaces (I wear these all the time. they will make regular appearances)
Sunglasses I bought a year(?) ago for $20 at some shop, but I love them as they are sort of retro and have a heart in the center.

So... these photos may or may not have been taken in my parents bathroom *shifty eyes*
What? I like the colour of the walls... don't judge me...

Until next time,
(which will probably be after Easter, in which case HAPPY EASTER!!)
