A very random post

These are just some really random photos taken in my room as I wanted something to upload haha. The colours are a bit strange and yellow in some of them so sorry in advance.

A New Term






Mistake...








This was I have obviously over exposed/not got the focus right but I quite like it...










Starting back at uni has been particularly hard, there is so much going on in the first term that you almost don't have any time to think and it's strange coming back having had christmas to settle back into home luxuries and living with your family. The first few weeks haven't been great just adjusting again BUT things are better and I feel more positive with starting back! After a week of not having a lot of motivation I can see the benefits and opportunities that uni offers and will try to make the most of them (I always say that :/)
We have a studio project at the moment and these are some of the photos I have been taking, just experimenting with light, they are all very dark so I am hoping to try out some more "high key" (fancy) basically brighter photos. I'm trying to sound like I know what I'm talking about which clearly I do not.
All my film photos came out which I am happy about (at the top) as I did not expect them to!
I have also learnt/realised that it doesn't matter if I am producing work at the moment that I don't like or that isn't very good (as shown above) because it's about improving and everybody has to start somewhere, and when you do get something that you like it's even better :)

The Good Life



First here are some cute pictures of Herbert!









This weekend we drove down to Falmouth for me to start my second term! I can't believe how fast it's gone it's crazy. Mum and dad stayed in a hotel by the river and Phoebe stayed with me which was really nice. We drove down with my friend Jess and the journey seemed surprisingly quick with only one stop in Exeter. After 'unpacking' we went to Asda to stock up on food! I bought so much fruit and veg, good start to the year (healthy eating) then we went to mum and dads hotel after watching a few episodes of outnumbered in my room. 

We went out for dinner at a beautiful thai restaurant and had yummy food, pictured below green curry with coconut rice and thai fragrant rice, thai style rice with vegetables and I had thai noodles with vegetables and peanuts! The weather was horrible so dad ended up running back for the car for us to jump in from the restaurant door. 

The next day me and Phoebe woke up and had pain au chocolats whilst watching some more outnumbered (the older series of corse). We then all went out for lunch by the sea and then drove back to campus. My friend cooked for me stuffed aubergine with sweet potato rice which was yuuum!



when you're a student you have to take this stuff...
