history

I'm in my history class at college, but instead of doing work I can't stop looking at pretty things on the net. I'm completely addicted to Foto Decadent - I get so excited when someone posts something new.

I wish I had that wallpaper.

Ps. You absolutely must check my friend's blog out. It's all about beautiful things, and it makes me happy. She's a very lovely lady, too.

the boosh

We went to see The Mighty Boosh live last night. Very, very funny. I've wanted to see them for years, and now I have!

We got Boosh crayons!

Such a strange building. Really felt like you were somewhere you shouldn't be.

I had possibly the best meal of my life in the place I took this: The Fold, in Bransford. Go there.

the history books forgot about us

Yesterday I discovered you can rent CDs out of the library for 95p, so I took out Begin To Hope, by Regina Spektor

This photo makes me want to wear lots of black all the time

an agony in eight fits

I just found this gorgeous little book, so I scanned it

But oh, beamish nephew, beware of the day,
If your snark be a Boojum! For then

You will softly and suddenly vanish away,

And never be met with again!

"Tis the note of the Jubjub! Keep count, I entreat;
You will find I have told it you twice.
Tis the song of the Jubjub! The proof is complete,
If only I've stated it thrice."

Without rest or pause - while those frumious jaws
Went savagely snapping around -
He skipped and he hopped, and he floundered and flopped,
Till fainting he fell to the ground.

virgin suicide

I just finished reading the book, but I haven't seen the film yet
