Hello vox! I haven't updated here in ages.. well here's a LJ copy&paste for you :) Will start here again in the new year!
Christmas was fun, went to adams on christmas eve and then was brought to the pub my parents were in at about 11.30 came home and opened all presents...

Emily hoodie and japan book from adams parents, edgar allen poe thing from adam's brother, socks from my parents...

Hotel chocolat slab from my brother, pink tea-pot oven gloves and coasters from my parents, lush stuff from adam's parents, pink duck lindt reindeer and phone charm from my parents...
I got some other choccies too, a couple more books, some pjamas and a cheque (due) from my mum and dad, too.
So christmas day was quite relaxing, I've been too ill to be bothered with stuff and I hadn't been out of the house all week until yesterday.
Boxing day adam came around, we watched mighty boosh live and drank bud... still v.ill and then adam was sick that evening (not through alcohol). Bit of a disaster, really. Yesterday I felt well enough to brave manchester sale shopping, although didn't find anything at a decent enough price to buy (like, if there was somthing good even though I've not got the money I would have bought it anyway, but nope... nothing). I have bought some dunlop's and a babycham sweater online though, and I spent a ridiculous $50 on new silicone eyelets (neon pink thin walled ones, white ones, emerald ones, white with black star ones) which are an early birthday present for myself!(well, not that early, only 11 more days!). Last night went for a couple of drinks with beckie (and I mean a couple, I had 2... still not feeling too great) and came home at 10pm to watch The Ruby and The Smoke that I'd sky+'d. New years even will be spent at adams house playing onthe Wii and drinking.
Hope you all had great days! xx
Lack of updates, apologies.
I've basically been slogging my guts out getting this dissertation done. Thankfully, the bulk is over. I have the conclusion to write, all the referencing and bibliography to do... and a little bit of editing. Adam is proof reading as we speak!
Deadline is friday, however I'm hopefully getting it printed and bound on wednesday afternoon so would really like it done by tuesday!
Ah!
Can't wait to finish so I can actually concentrate on some real art.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? Why?

I already know... My most perfect place to live would be southern California, or just slightly above. I absolutely adore california... I don't know why, it's my spiritual home I guess!!! I visited last year and just... ah! Loved it.
We're planning on moving over there in a few years time, hopefully to either just below or just above LA... or maybe even San Fran and the bay area >.<
There are such great things in that state, and the surrounding states, and it's an ideal base for my career aims!
I would also have loved to live in Japan, either in the time before WWI or in the ancient times... hum
Well I thought I should make an update seen as I haven't in AGES here!
Halloween was good, this weekend we had a small gathering in which we drank vodka koolaid, strongbow and ate sausages. We watched evil dead 1 and Garth Merenghis Dark Place... Me and adam dressed as pirates for the occasion. We didn't go out on actual halloween for the soul reason of 'Secret Policeman's Ball' being on TV, featuring some of our favorite comics!
What food or drink do you love when it's cold out? (Recipes and recommendations, please!)
Stew/Casserole and dumplings! I love it so much, and I love when it gets to autumn and more squashes become available and winter foods >.< I also love soup, and a nice cupasoup of an evening :D
See more on my flickr!
Show us pictures of what you collect.

I don't have my collections with me right now! But I'm a HUGE collector of Pullip dolls and blythe dolls. I also really collect nightmare before christmas stuff (my collection is worth over £1000 i think)... and makeup! ;)
However, giving myself the dealine of sunday for the 4000 word mark makes me a little sad cos I just can't be bothered...
Show us your favorite animal.
Inspired by the Emporer.
She is such a delightful creature. We adopted her last summer, and she is just so adorable. She has such a great personality, and is a complete character! I couldn't have hoped to adopt a better kitty!
Unfortunately when i'm at Uni I'm not with her much because she lives at home with my parents.
