TV: I'm hooked on Grimm at the moment. Started watching it just because it amused me to revisit a modern Buffy. But it was running at the same time that Sky was being commandeered for other viewing. So if I caught a repeat that was fine but now we have Sky+ *__* which means as soon as Game of Thrones finishes it's straight to the planner for the next ep. woot. Second hook! Game of Thrones(Grrr should be called Clash of Kings) is on Atlantic and MUST be watched! I'm in for the long haul and loving every twisted moment of it - ESPECIALLY! this weeks ep. Epic! Am also really enjoying Once Upon a Time on 5 on a Sunday. I'm also watching a few Anime series. Aquarion EVOL, Hyouka, Zetman, Hiiro no Kakera, Kuroko's Basketball, Tsuritama, Accel World, Medaka Box or and Shining Hearts - Shiawase no Pan. 8 series. Eep. XD
Music: I'm enjoying James Vincent McMorrrow's album Early in the Morning, especially his version of Wicked games. I've been trying to warm to the new Three Doors Down album but it doesn't settle the same as the previous 4 albums. And then there's Dir en Grey's Dum Spiro Spero. Though Uroboros still wins hands down. :) Had Avenue Q on lots too in prep for seeing it on Friday and that's been great. It always puts a smile on my face!
Food: Tiramisu! I have a long running love of Tiramisu but Liz showed me how to do her version of it that hands down is the best I've ever eaten. So I gave it a go and YUM! Like I said before - I'm a die hard T fan so to be able to make it like Liz is so many thumbs up. Made it twice, second time in a lovely long/deep pasta bake dish and got it as perfect as I think I ever will. And next my plan is to try my hand in macaroons. We'll have to see how that goes.
Drink: I've rediscovered my love of Vimto. When I first got my laryngitis I read up on what was best to keep away from and alcohol, fizzy pop and caffeine were on the don't list so I decided to yup them out as much as possible and started drinking lots of water. I'm now hooked on a good glug of Vimto to pep the water up a bit. Vimto ice cubes are great too!
Shop: I still have a weakness for Fat face. The style of clothes there is very much me. It's so nice to finally look at clothes in a shop and find one after another that I like. Damn it being so expensive though! My other weakness is Sally Beauty. Yes this (Especially the Peterlee branch!) is such a tempting torment, stocking such a great variety of nail varnishes. Ok, so most shops that sell varnish is a weakness of mine but Sally usually has some sort of BOGOF/Half offer on. It's so hard to resist!
Brand: I'm not a brands person. If I had to say what do I have the most of of anything... I'd have to say OPI. Yes - nail varnish. Surprise surprise. But I don't really care about names. If I like it I buy it. I really like Paperchase goodies but I don't think that counts. Oh I like White Stuff! Yes White Stuff! But alas the nearest branch is in York. ;__; Luckily there's Fat Face near work so that at least gives me my clothes fix. But yer - not a Brand girl really.
Toy: lol! Ok so it's not so much a Toy but I have an app on my phone called Dragonvale. It's basically a wii fi access game where you log in and feed/breed a variety of dragons. This started with Tiny Monsters which I downloaded when I was off work sick to pass the time when I wasn't allowed to speak. I was feeling really low and trying to find things to take my mind off the depressing reality that I still had 2 weeks to go before I could talk again and came across this game. Which led to me then discovering Dragonvale. You can get all sorts of different dragons if you breed different types of scalies together and you have to grow crops to feed them so that their levels will increase. It's so stupid and I feel like a total kid playing it but I'm hooked. XD There's nothing I can do about it - but play on it when no one can see my shame.
Nails: Currently I am alternating Collection 2000's BMX Bandit and Candy Floss on my nails and have decorated them with Models Own Balck and White liners to draw a detailed variety of tribal designs on them. See below :P And previously I was wearing Deborah Lippman's - Happy Birthday. Super sparkly! I'm very much a sparkly lady at the moment. If it shimmers/glitters it ends up on my nails.
Will try and not make this the last update I do for the next 8 months.
