Power cuts, shoulder pads and suitcases.

It's been a horrible day, really, weather-wise. Everything else was A+. We just went into Perth for shopping and even that was hell because the wind was so strong. Still, got fed with some good, healthy food... large popcorn chicken at KFC counts as healthy if you have lots of tomato, right? Well, tomato sauce.

Shush.

But yeah! I found a suitcase. Shockingly it's bright red, which is my latest colour scheme phase as mentioned in my last post, so it'll go lovely with my room in London. There was a beaaautiful purple one but it was whatsitcalled that designer dude Ted Baker (I wrote Tom Baker to begin with, total mind blank, that would be been silly) so it was double the price of the one I actually got.
Not as pretty but with 70% less guilt!
As well as the tights and sports shorts that I went specifically for my mum came over with a coat that I didn't originally want but ended up with too.

Excuse the pose, photo booth has a habit of being TERRIBLE AT DEFINING ANY EDGES EVER.
But, in order to not seem ungrateful because it is a nice coat and I appreciate my mother buying it because I have a complete jacket and coat adoration (did I ever mention my weekly clothing-website-check for nice blazers? because that happens) even though my usual style is less ~smart~ and more ~everything is half destroyed and scruffy and easily maintanable~ or ~this is enough to tame the WILDS OF SCOTLAND~, I'm sure I can fix it so it's more wearable for me. It's got some rather... dazzling buttons on the front, and it would be so much better with a tie closure. But maybe that's my severe hatred for buttons. A tie would make it fit better too, or I can put on weight. EITHER OR. Nothing will stop it accentuating my giants hips or butt but what can yer do? The back is nice, the lines are all squiggly so it follows the shape of a body but yeah DOSE BUTTONS.

At least the shoulder padding is less 80s power dressing and more the illusion of not having quite as posture as you actually do.

Anyway.

My essay's coming along bit by bit. I just need a good ending and it's done. Ignoring the fact that it answers questions that it shouldn't and avoids the question it should it's not too bad! I was stuck on 1,666 words for a while which amused me because it's about Antichrist (in b4 someone lectures me on the bible (oh, awkward, I typed bibal there) yes I know that's not the number of any Antichrist but you know, CONNOTATIONS AND ALL THAT). Really it's just a shame I can't write my essay on Sons of Anarchy considering the far superior amount of time I've invested in that show over the past two weeks in comparison with Antichrist (which, other than the original viewing in class would be a grand total of zero minutes). Specifically I would focus on my sudden love for Juice and how that affects my world.
Like seriously, you have tribal tattoos ON YOUR HEAD and I would still go there. U R SO BEAUTIFUL 2 ME.
 Or the bromance between Chibs and Juice and how that affects my general emotions.
HUG IT OUT. Seriously, if everything can be solved through hugs and somehow Juice makes it out of these shenanigans alive I will be most pleased.

The essay would basically be "WARRRGGHHHAHBBHLLHRGGHBABFLGLGKJT" and even though that would be missing the word count by 1749 words I think it gets across more than my actual essay about the narrative structure of Antichrist does.

Now I'm finished them all it makes me a bit sad. But enough about that.

My power was out for a few hours, so my essay took a back seat (even though strangely even on a back seat I still got more done than usual) and I did what I do best: running around taking rubbish photos and being mesmerised by fire. I really do not get enough chances to play with fire. Thank all the gods for power cuts! I was a bit irritated earlier on because I started a project 365 yesterday (stupid idea, what the hell am I going to photograph in my halls?) and I had no ~inspiration~ for today. And then BAM! Power's out and suddenly my room is ablaze (not literally) with candles, so here are the photos.

Naturally I started out with a cow.


Then I moved onto good ol' Cap.



 Then there was this thing which had a kinda cool texture.


And my lovely laptop illuminated that which the candles could not.

I can't for the life of me get things in the middle of the damn photo.


And outside the stars were so pretty because the street lights were all out! This is pretty heavily edited though because it's DARK in it's original form.
