DIY Denim

Before;

A pair of old wide leg jeans from Primark that I chopped into shorts a few years ago.

Dying;

Placed in a bucket, bleach poured on and rubbed in.

After;

Rince and spin cycle on the washing machine. Lovely

Next;

Now I need to chop them a bit shorter still, fray them and add a lovely ribbon lining and they'll be perfect for wakestock this weekend! :)

G.I.M.P

Most of my girl friends dress up to look pretty and attractive. They flirt with guys, and dance seductively. I dress like a freak, tell fart jokes and dance like a gimp (see below) but for the life of me I wouldn't change a thing. Do it for the laughs ! ha :)

13 Days

I'm not allowed to talk about it any more because I get too excited but in 13 days I will be attending the first of 3 festivals this summer, EXCITED MUCH!? :D

P.S.

Exams went well!!
All done & dusted, back at CHS for round two.
Now... Uni?

Words are beautiful. Certain words, in certain places are enough to make your heart burst. I just got a wonderful message, but things are so dangerous. The rules set by others are made to be broken, but those set by yourself should never be. I will not allow myself .. to think, any more.

Naughty Helen

I will not post anything whilst drunk again.

Burning room

It's always amazing. The emotion connected to the words, wow!

It was the best of times

Sad day. Very sad indeed.
I've already posted this song before, it's called Best of times by Sage Francis. It's awesome, really powerful. I hope more people come around and make music as fantastic as this. If you ask me, this is the way music should always be. This is what real music is aboot. The lyrics are really powerful and really worth a read.

Its been a long and lonely trip but I’m glad I took it cause it was well worth it.
Got to read a couple books and do some research before I reached my verdict.
Never thought that I was perfect. Always thought that I had a purpose.
And I use to wonder if I’d live to see my first kiss.
The most difficult thing that I did was recite my own words at a service.
Realizing the person I was addressing probably wasn’t looking down from heaven or cooking up something in hell’s kitchen, trying to listen in or ease drop from some other dimension.
It was self serving just like this is.
Conveniently religious on Easter Sunday and on Christmas.
The television went from being a babysitter to a mistress.
Technology made it easy for us to stay in touch while keeping a distance, till we just stay distant and never touch. Now all we do is text too much.
I don’t remember much from my youth. Maybe my memories repressed or I just spend too much time wondering if I’ll ever live to have sex.
Fell in love for the first time in 4th grade but I didn’t have the courage to talk to her.
In 8th grade, I wrote the note and slipped it in somebody else’s locker. Considered killing myself cause of that, it was a big deal, it was a blown cover, it was over for me, my goose was cooked, stick a fork in me, the jig is up, what were my chances? The rest is history. Our future is torn to sunder. It became abundantly clear; I was only brought here to suffer.
at least I didn’t include my name. Thankfully I wrote the whole note in code and it had 10 layers of scotch tape. Safety seal, making it impossible to open
Plus, it was set to self destruct. Whoever read it probably died laughing. I wonder if they lived long enough to realize what happened.
a year later, I came to understand that wasn’t love that I was feeling for her. I had someone else to obsess over. I was older. I was very mature. I forged my time signature while practicing my parents autograph because I was failing math. Disconnected the phone when I thought the teacher would call my home.
Check the mail box twice a day. The end of a long dirt road steamed open a couple envelopes like I was in private detective mode.
If you snoop around long enough for something in particular, you’re guaranteed to find it for better or worse. That’s how I learned it’s best to keep some things private

3X It was the best of times it was the end of times

The best of times. The end of times.
I was always on deck. I was next in line. An only child with a pen and pad, writing a list of things I could never have. Walls in my house were paper thin. The squabbles seemed to get defying. My memories serve me correctly, I made it a point to avoid and forget some things. Probably to keep from being embarrassed. Never meant to upset or give grief to my parents. Kept my secrets hide. My talents in my head. Never run to the mattress. There again couldn’t break me. Never learn a word that could ensure safety. So, I spoke softly then I tip toed off into the door to my room, was like a big old coffin the way that it creaked when I closed it shut. Anxieties peaked when it opened up. As if everything that I was thinking would be exposed. I still sleep fully clothed.

It was the best of times.
It was beautiful
It was brutal
It was cruel
It was business as usual
Heaven
It was hell
Use to wonder if I’d live to see 12.
When I did, I figured that I was immortal. Loved to dance but couldn’t make it to the formal. Couldn’t bare watching my imaginary girlfriend bust a move with any other dudes. Till love was talking about some wild thing but I was still caught up with some child things. Scared of a god who couldn’t spare the rod. It was clearly a brimstone and fire thing. Pyromaniac, kleptomaniac, couldn’t explain my desire to steal that fire. Now I add it to my rider like please don’t, please don’t throw me in that patch of fire.

It was the best of times it was the end of times.

The school councilor was the coolest cause I never skipped classes. Perfect attendance, imperfect accent. Speech impediment that could never really fix and I faked that so I could wear glasses. Considered doing something that would cripple me.
Wanted a wheelchair
Wanted the sympathy
Wanted straight teeth
Then came braces, four years of head gear helped me change faces.

It was the best of times it was the end of times

Now I wonder if I’ll live to see marriage. Wonder if I’ll live long enough to have kids. Wonder if I’ll live to see my kids have kids if I do I’m gonna tell em how it is. But don’t listen when they tell you that these are your best years. Don’t let anyone protect your ears. It’s best to hear what they don’t want you to hear. Better to have pressure from peer then to not have peers. Beer won’t give you chest hair. Spicy food won’t make it curl. When you think you got it all figured out, then everything collapses. Trust me kids. it’s not the end of the world

We'll give you something to cry aboot

Simply the funniest thing in the world right now! I've stopped saying "about". There is no "u" in the word anymore! It is always "Aboot" <3

Fishtail

Did my first fishtail plat today. I've got too many out of control layers for it to look really good but its not too shabby. It has also shown me that my hair is a very weird colour, I'll get right on it!

NB: Okay its very shabby...

My New Top :)

It was fate! I wasn't even going to walk into the shop, I'm not sure why I did. I wasn't planning on spending any money either. But as I speedily scanned the clothes filling the shop, out of the corner of my eye, disguised under a snot coloured jacket, were two big beady eyes longing at me. "Hello Helen. Is it me you're looking for?" haha
Repiblic, £16.99. Pricey for such a tiny top with so many holes in it, but its perfect! Owls; big love. I cannot WAIT to wear it on Thursday. I can't wait to let my hair down on Thursday! I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THURSDAY!! This has been one of the most stressful weeks of my life, but at least it'll all be over by the 11th, if only for a few days.

Anyway, be jealous:

Niggles & Narks

I miss those old tales that were so magical when I was a child! This advert made me feel warm and safe inside :)

Rolly Pollies

Watch these guys, amazing!
