1st Entry for Album of the Year!

Goooood Saturday Morning :)

I love waking up happy, such a strong start for a good day. Of course, it does help if you have a nice little day of plans ahead of you as well. 

Now I have said that, I kind of have to share don't I? Well, to be honest, the first half is not hugely exciting as I have to finish an essay for University, then I am working a baby shift, only four hours. I quite like where I work, which is so important, earning money doesn't have to be that much of a chore, as long as you work with people you enjoy being with, it can be fun!
This is the big one though, tonight I am going to the Southbank IMAX to see Interstellar with my boyfriend, if you haven't seen the trailers for this yet, CHECK IT OUT. I will tell you more when I know more (if you want a spoiler), but I have heard it is really like being in space, so seeing it at the IMAX will be awesomeee! EEK!

The point in this blog post, is actually nothing to do with that though! I was going to get started on putting forward my candidates for my favourite albums of the year, as we are edging oh so close to December (and Christmas!!!). There are a few strong contenders, I think I am going to choose five, just to make it super hard for myself... there are SO many!!!! So, my first...DUN DUN DUUUUN... is Lower Than Atlantis' album, which came out October this year, which has the incredibly inventive name of... Lower Than Atlantis. 





A lot of artists tend to call one album by their name, as a way of saying that they think that album might potentially be their best, they want it to be double associated to them I guess (greedy). 

I don't know what happened to me in the past couple months, but my 'seeking new music game' has been SO off. I literally had not crawled out of my little gremlin hole for so long to test the new waters. I only found this album about two weeks ago, it came out on the 6th October! I know.... shocking, I am useless.
However, I am sure some people haven't even heard it yet, if you are one of those people, load up YouTube or Spotify, or whatever you kids use these days, and listen to the WHOLE album. Do not skip one song, I am forbidding you to do that. 'Here We Go' is the first and biggest single off the Album, then came 'English Kids in America' and 'Emily' is the most recent.
I loved this album so much that I am hoping to record an acoustic cover of one of the songs in the next couple weeks. I am not telling you which one though, it can be a cheeky little surprise. So, stay tuned!

So today's checklist for you:

1. Go find the Lower Than Atlantis album
2. Load it onto your MP3 player of choice/Burn it onto a CD/be old school and cool with your walkman (if you're from Shoreditch)
3. turn it UP
4. Enjoy your Saturday!


Much Love,

Hello....... Again! :)

I started this blog over a year ago, it went strong for a little while but then I went through an odd patch of life (as everyone does at some point) and stopped posting, but here I am again, back with a vengeance after being prompted by a tutor in uni.
It isn't going to be the same thing, it is going to be much less focused on health, it will be a lifestyle blog instead. No, not another lifestyle blog like every girl in the world seems to be doing now. Well actually, I guess it is, but I like to think I will make mine more interesting to some people, and this is why...


Hi!
I look like a grumpy bitch in this, but i'm not, I promise!



I am a 22 year old girl living in West London,  studying Popular Music Performance Vocals and am currently in my final year of a degree (Scary stuff). We study a variety of music genres but I am leaning more toward the electronic and rock scene in my personal work, I know they are two very different genres, but I am indecisive and greedy ;)
My main interests are music (duuuh), fashion, health (any of you who followed my old blog will know I am a foodie) and going to as many new places as my TINY bank account will allow me. So there will still be a small focus on health, naturally as it is an important part of my every day life, but it won't be the main thing, because lets be honest... it's important and should be a subconscious way of life, but there are MUCH more fun things to talk about ;)
So let me tell you about the crazy London happenings (of which there are many), suggest new music for you to listen to, comment (be a bitch or fangirl) about music I have a strong opinion on and keep you up to date on all the fun things life in London has to offer.

So expect a very music-y, fashion-y, London-y and hopefully fun lifestyle blog.


Much Love,
