Jan 3rd – On the train again

No Comments

Jan 3rd - On the train againI had to take my car home today which meant coming back on the train – something I’m very familiar with as I commuted Guildford to Portsmouth for two years. A boring photo for a boring ride for a reason which took up much of my day.

The Resolution: Daily Photo

No Comments

Jan 2nd - Students Are GrossSo I have two new years resolutions, one which will probably fail because I’d forgotten Mars eggs existed is the no buying chocolate resolution – see here. The second is Project 365 (I guess 366 this year).

The objective is to take one photograph a day to help you grow as a photographer, learn what’s important to you and to keep a visual memory of your year.

I only discovered this today so I’m a day late, but it’s a leap year so I’ll still have 365 pictures.

I also plan to blog about each picture, so here’s the first one, and it’s not pretty ;) Came home to my student house today, I’d left some wine glasses in the mister’s room because they were mine and didn’t want them breaking, turns out after a week they grow mold!

Gross but interesting. I also like what the flash did with the glass! I used my phone camera for this cause I had it handy ;)

And yes that is our kitchen sideboard, but we’ve not been here so it’s not our mess ;)

As an aside I had a wonderful, romantic new years and feel I started this year really really well. Happy new year everyone!

Two posts in one day is crazy talk!

Not when it’s about chocolate it’s not.

As evidenced by this post right here, I love chocolate. The mister and I have come up with some kind of wager. A year of no chocolate. I get something at the end of each month I manage, but we haven’t decided what yet. Don’t say chocolate :P This all commences at the usual time, January the first. According to those money totals, I would save about £215, which is loads, although that spending may switch to caramel and cherries.

This also means I only have a week to eat all my Christmas chocolate, haha, oh no! :S

The longest I’ve ever gone is eight months, broken only by being polite in a family situation. To be honest I think those are a fair exception since being polite in a family situation is not a common occurance ;P but the mister says otherwise. If his mum ever makes me tiramisu I am screwed, but there’s no way I’d ever say no to that! Haha.

Wish me luck, I’ll keep you posted ;)

ETA: Changed it to no *buying* chocolate.
