    I’ll admit right now, I’ve been pretty lazy this week…hey I’m on holiday! Apart from work and a lunchtime catch up at Fire & Stone in Gunwharf Quays last Tuesday, which was beyond lush their country themed pizza’s are amazing, I’ve mainly been at home.
    I recently managed to get hold of Photoshop CS4 and have been playing around with my tablet doing fanart but also some design bits for my blog. I’m really trying to get on top of blog admin and design now that I’ve got all of this free time, and I’m finally getting used to using Photoshop again. So fingers crossed I’ll give my blog a     little facelift soon!


    Keep on wishing…

    A bit of everything. The week began with the end of the Jubilee celebrations, a good ol’ BBQ in the rain and much time spent watching all of the coverage on the TV. Not gonna lie I might not be British by birth but I was sure proud to have been raised in the UK after watching all the Jubilee bits. 
    I’m now fully into my Summer holiday and I’m trying to enjoy my free time before starting my placement in August. So I’ve mainly been working part time, catching up with friends and (rather foolishly perhaps?) getting into new fandoms. 
    I got my first red carpet fix for a couple of months from the MTV Movie Awards [check out my part 1 & part 2 reviews] I always miss staying up tracking Tumblr, Twitter and real time fashion bloggers once January finishes. 
    I also received a runner up giveaway prize from the lovely Erin from her amazing blog shop Sawyer & Scout. Everyone should also follow her blog, it’s a regular read of mine and I’m normally fawning over her Weekly Style Inspiration posts. 
    And in terms of blogging news, I caved to the masses and splashed out on the Revlon Lip Butters in ‘Creme Brulee’. I was apprehensive about buying them as I’m not usually one to be bothered about what goes on my lips but I really like them, I am looking towards getting a darker shade for nights out now. Consider me converted!

    This is pretty late, but I’m up for the MTV Movie Awards anyway so here you go. It’s been a both an exciting and relaxing week. 
    It all kicked off with a brand new phone. I’ve been dying for an upgrade from my 2 year old LG, which had pretty much been on its last legs for about a month. So I traded it in for the new Sony Xperia U. I’m pretty impressed so far, I basically wanted a decent model that would still keep me satisfied for the next 2 years and this model came out about two weeks ago. The camera’s pretty good for daily blogger shooting and the android system runs pretty fast too, plus I’m completely addicted to angry birds now. 
    An upgrade to the new android system has also meant I’m finally on Instagram. If you aren’t following me already I’m @rcagz on there. I’ve been pretty snap happy this week if I’m honest, I love it already!
    I also recieved some amazing news that I’ve been offered a 12 month work placement! I was so excited but wanted to make sure I got my contract through before I said anything about it online, but it came in the post Saturday morning so everything is getting official now. It’s a great marketing job and full time so I will I be out of University for a year, plus keeping my Saturday job at New Look. This does mean I’ll have to get my time management skills to keep up with blogging too. But at least I’m exempt from midnight essays and revision for a year! ;) 
    I’ve also spent a very lazy weekend chilling with the family and watching the Diamond Jubilee coverage. I love all the pomp and pageantry so I was glued to the BBC coverage of the Thames parade today. 
    All in all a pretty good week :)

    Keep on wishing…
