Sorry Not Sorry

Is it too late now to say Sorry?

So obsessed with Justin Bieber - Sorry. I just can't stop listening to it or watch the video! Some of the dance moves are stupid but I still can't do them! Definitely the best song of the year! Purpose is such a good album I really want to see Bieber live. My dad had tickets years ago when he was playing the Echo Arena but no-one would go with me so I didn't end up going :(
I like the post making the rounds Justin Bieber needs to stop dropping banger after banger cos now I'm now a belieber. Always been a Belieber!

My spending has really gotten out of control lately.. Last week I spent £100+ in the space of 3 days it's so bad I need to stop!! I feel like I'm making up for years of being a bad stinge. But I guess I know how to treat myself!

Footlocker were doing 25% again & it happened to come off sale items as well so again I bought a pair or Roshe's & Adidas Boosts! The exact same trainers as last time but in different colours & cheaper. I finally got a pair or black & white Roshe's which I've been after for agesss! I got them for £29.99 with the 25% discount. (£10 off with the discount was £39.99). I also got an Adidas sports bra £7.50 in the sale & discount!

Bike Coat - H&M

Blanket Scarf - New Look

Sweater - Zara

Leather leggings - H&M

Nike Roshe - Footlocker

Leather Satchel - Marks & Spencer

In my last post Trainer Crazy I said Roshe's weren't as comfy as Free Runs, but these black & white ones are really comfy! I'm glad I didn't keep them all black ones as they weren't that comfy. I think they might have changed the design of them which I think is silly, why fix if it ain't broke? These are old stock & I wish they had them in my size last time! But hey I've finally got them now & will be living in them.

I got the Adidas Pure Boost Splatter but in pink as these were the only ones they had on the website. I got 25% off them even though they were in the sale so were only £29.99 when they were £99.99! I still wish I kept the other pair as the colours are so much nicer & I don't like pink but they'll do because they are the comfiest trainers ever & were a bargain so they're going to be my new gym shoes. The ones I have now the lining is all ripped inside & hurting my feet which isn't good!

I also bought 2 dresses from Zara but one of them is going back.

Flared Dress - £12.99

Cuffed Dress - £12.99

I'm keeping the first one but taking the second one back as it just doesn't look nice on. I've been after day dresses for ages now. Something I can just throw on & just wear a necklace with that will go with or without tights & trainers or boots. It just makes life easier without having to make an actual outfit & saves so much time!

I've finally found my perfect shearling jacket I've been after for years in Zara!! I wish in there the other day & just fell in love. I went to try it on hoping maybe it wasn't nice so then I wouldn't be lusting over it but no I fell in love even more & need it in my life!

(I have these leather pants!)

Double-Face Biker Coat - £69.99

£70 isn't a lot for a coat but I just can't face paying that right now but I think I will end up giving in & getting it. I don't think I can risk it going in the sale on Boxing Day in case they sell out! 

I did see this one on the Topshop website...

Premium Shearling Biker Jacket - £550

There's no way I could spend over £500 on a coat as nice as it is! :( I was saying there needs to be a peasant alternative because really who can afford to splash that much on a coat??

I also bought 2 pairs of gym leggings from the JD Sports online sale but they're both going back as I don't like the fit on them. Good price though 2 for £16.

I want to say I will stop spending but I need something to wear for my work's Christmas meal & night out on the 5th December! I don't have anything I can wear!! Also something for Christmas but if I don't find anything for that I do have something in mind but don't for work's night out.

Office Wear

I did a 4 week placement in an office to get some work experience. It wasn't great I did nearly walk away after the first week as I wasn't gaining anything from it since there was nothing for me to do. But I thought I might as well stick with it hopefully it'll get better. Luckily I did cos on the second week I had company! Bukunmi was on placement with me for the rest of the placement so I wasn't alone & did make it a lot more enjoyable even when some of the tasks we were given were crap at least we had each other.

Some of the staff we kinda treating us as their own personal assistant to do all the rubbish tasks they didn't want to do themselves. But most of them were really nice.

These are some of the outfits I wore to work. It was a pretty casual office you didn't have to be suited & booted but just smart no jeans, t-shirts, shorts the usual.

I am now off uni for 3 weeks for Easter & after that I only have 2 weeks left of uni!! WHERE HAS THE PAST 3 YEARS GONE?!!?!? 

I've spent the past 3 years pretty much moaning & hating life. I've really not enjoyed uni at all & most defiantly hasn't been the best years of my life. Teachers lie to you to make you go to uni. The best years of my life was the 14 years I spent in school! I've said before it might be because I stayed at home in my own city & the fact I hate my course which probably all add together. But it wasn't what I was expecting though. As much as I have hated it I don't want it to end because it means I have to make some really really important decisions which I'm not good at all!! I wish I could stay a kid forever seriously growing up is the worst thing ever!!

I want to do a Masters so I can say I have one & to stay in education longer but really don't think they're valid enough reasons especially the fact I've hated uni I don't think I can stick out for another year! But I'm to convince myself that if I do it in something I actually like unlike this degree I might actually enjoy it & it won't be the wrong choice... 

For now I just need to get this dissertation & essays done so I can actually have a degree otherwise the past 3 years really will have been pointless! I'm really stressed but hopefully I can get so much done the past 3 weeks since I'm not going away anywhere like everyone else as much as I'd love to!

Crown Court

For one of my modules I have to go to a court to observe. I went to Liverpool Crown Court with Danielle completely blind as we both have never been before but have always wanted to go. Holly wants to be a barrister, is currently studying law at Liverpool uni was meant to go with me but she was busy so I ended up taking Danielle even though she doesn't do this module.

We got there for exactly 9:45am (I had to run off the bus to get there on time) after waiting over 20 minutes for a bus! Arriva are the worst bus company ever so unreliable & rubbish!!

Went through security then looked at the screen to see what was on. We went upstairs & waited to see when we could go in. It was really busy with barristers, solicitors, lawyers, people doing jury service, defendants, presumably witnesses waiting around to go into the court rooms. We had no idea what we were going to see so just waited until we were allowed in. The usher would come out, shout a name then before I got a chance to catch them or the named person to even hear their name they had already gone back into the court room! Which was really annoying because I needed to ask if I could go in & take notes. So we waited for like nearly an hour & was starting to get bored & fed up.. People were going into the court rooms but were coming out really quick so we weren't sure if we were allowed in & other people asked if they could & were told it was too full.. 

I finally got to ask an usher who was actually really nice & was allowed into the court room to take notes. There was a girl already in there taking notes who I think is on my course as it looked like she had the same module guide but I didn't recognise her. 

It was a lot smaller than I though it would be but there are different sized court rooms & this was quite a small one as there was only 10 seats in the public gallery & 6 seats in the defendants box.

During the hour & an half we were in there we only managed to see a video link which lasted for about 2 minutes, 2 preliminary hearings, a committal for breaches & someone who was meant to be in court yesterday but didn't turn up. It was all quite boring & not interesting so there wasn't really much to observe. I managed to take some notes but didn't really know what was going on a lot of jargon was used. 

I wish I went with Holly & that she would have taken me at least once since I've been asking her for years cos then I wouldn't have been so clueless or wasted that much time waiting around to go in! Also it turns out we should have went to a different floor as there was trials, part trials and sentencings happening which would have been a lot more interesting. I may need to go back again next week to take better notes but I'm not sure yet! But if you do go to sit in court I'd advise you go with someone who's been before try to ring before hand to see what's on & to dress smart casual. It was a good experience but I wish I got to see something interesting.

We left at 12:50pm & went for lunch at Tokyou which is a cheap noodle bar we love to go to.

Udon Chicken Noodle Soup - Chicken, fried tofu & oriental greens £3.80

Satay Chicken Wok Fried Noodles - Malaysia, Wet - Slices of chicken with assorted vegetables £3.90

Grilled Meat Dumplings £3.50

If you ever come to Liverpool & love Chinese food, noodles I highly recommend you go to Tokyou on Berry Street. The food is really nice, portions are large & cheap. Like I don't understand how I've been going since I was like 14 & I still get the same noodles for the same cheap price!! It's defiantly my favourite place to eat at. My dumplings actually came when I nearly finished my noodles so dessert then not a starter?

I completely forgot to take an outfit post as when I got in I was really tired & just changed out of my clothes straight away & to take Frodo for a walk but I wore this outfit here minus the necklace, my h&m biker jacket & new M&S satchel. A smart casual look.

I'm loving this cereal at the moment which is on offer in Tesco for £2 or in Sainsbury's you can buy 2 for £4. It is the best cereal, I piratically ate a whole box in one day... You can eat it as a snack or with milk either way it's just as nice! Shame they only come in 500g boxes. I got another 2 today in Tesco this & the chunky nuts one which has Brazil nuts, flaked almonds, pecans & hazelnuts so nice!! Like I can't recommend them enough I think I'm going to have to go to Sainsbury's tomorrow cos I want to try the honey & nut & super berry!

It's only 4 days till my uncle's wedding & I finally got a dress from Debenhams last Thursday! I can't wait I'm so excited!! Fingers crossed the weather stays nice but gets warmer as it's been really deceiving sun out but freezing cold!

Marks and Sparks

Also known as Marks & Spencer

Green Jumper - Forever 21

Grey Leggins - Elle mum from years ago

This isn't an outfit post which explains the leggins as I was wearing jeans today but when I come home I like to change into leggins as they're comfier & wanted some photos so couldn't be bother changing back into them! I told you I'd live in this jumper & I have since I bought it wearing it nearly everyday!! It's so comfy & warm. 

As you can see I'm a like a magpie to anything green. I'm starting to think I'm colour blind to every colour apart from green...

I was in Marks & Spencer with my mum & she actually spotted this satchel which is real leather! It's meant to be £79 but got reduced to £41.99. I was deciding for ages whether to get it or not & my mum was saying it's hard to match but I wear green all the time so it's not hard at all for me! It's perfect for uni to fit my notebook in & with it being real leather it'll last even though I'm in my last 6 weeks of uni!!! 

I also got a Rosie for Autograph bra for only £6.99 reduced from £25! I'm not one for fancy underwear but I thought this was a good buy considering how much it's meant to be!

I really need to sort my priorities out as I'm spending more time in the gym than I am in uni or doing uni work!! But the gym is so much better than uni work... But I am badly running out of time so need to sort it out! Also did anyone watch the Oscars last night? I didn't/haven't watched it but from all the photos & articles it sounds like it was the best one! Minus the fact they clearly hate Leo!

Also it's less than 2 weeks now till my uncle's wedding & still don't have anything to wear!! I want a nice long dress preferably in green (yes I'm obsessed) but any colour other than black or pink is fine but I can't seem to find a nice one anywhere! I wish I was taller as well to wear a long dress! :(

 It was really cold today it felt like Winter! Winter is fast approaching. I have my woolly jumpers, coat, scarves, gloves, hats all coming out! I like Frodo photo bombing me in the second photo as per usual wanting to be in my photos!

I was in uni today 2-3 for the most awkward seminar ever! It was the gender module & the reading was about menstrual blood. As usual one of the mature students really has no shame whatsoever & tells us all sorts of stories about herself or her family without being embarrassed one bit! While we're all sitting there being embarrassed for her! Laughing at her & not with her. I can't really repeat the story she told us as it makes me feel a bit sick! 

This was just a quick post compared to usual as I want to try & post something everyday on here! I'm off uni tomorrow & maybe going to my friend's house party in the evening so there should be some photos from that!

Summertime Sadness...

Really is the right song for today, summer is over! :( No more bare legs & white converse. The tights & boots are out from hibernation in exchange! Autumn has arrived very dramatically.

I was up early this morning as I got a lift into town with my mum on her way into work. I had to leave the house at 9am so didn't even have time to have breakfast! I was left wandering town on my own until she finished at 12 which meant I went into every shop & just tried stuff on...

Striped Top - H&M Kids

Gold Chain Necklace - Forever 21

Skirt - Internacionale Kids

Studded Belt - Forever 21

Leather Bike Boots - Oasis Via Asos

Bag - Zara Sale

Maroon Waxed Jacket - Marks Spencer Kids £28/£30 (Depending on size)

Biker Jacket - H&M £34.99

Black Marl Biker Jacket - H&M £34.99

Black Biker Jacket - H&M £34.99

The 3 H&M jackets can be found on my H&M Wishlist post from the other day

I went to M&S & tried a kids waxed jacket. The first photo is size 13-14 years which is quite big on me, the second is size 11-12 years which fits me! I did actually turn 20 last Tuesday...

As I didn't have time to have a proper breakfast I did have a banana & Special K cereal bar in the car I pondered around town looking for somewhere to have breakfast, texting everyone for recommendations on where I should go but ended up in the M&S cafe to have porridge as I didn't want a greasy fry up. I've never had porridge before so I thought I'd give it a try. This pot was £1.95. £1.70 for the porridge then 25p for the berry topper. I don't like porridge it's quite sickly but I do want to like it! I ate nearly all of it but left like 2 spoonfuls as I don't like wasting food but I really couldn't eat anymore :( I think it was the way it was made as everyone makes it differently. I got talking to this lovely old couple who told me how to make it which I might like!

1/2 cup porridge oats, 1 cup of milk. Put it in the microwave for 1 minute take out to stir then back in for another minute. Top with honey & banana or any other fruit. I think I might I'll like it more if it was made with milk as I love milk! But it's healthier made with water.

I finally went to H&M & tried the biker coat I really want. The black marl one isn't nice at all. I think it would look nicer if the sleeves weren't leather look & was all the same material. I like the black but I didn't buy it as all my coats & jackets are black. I'm hoping they bring it out in a different colour as I need a coloured coat!
