Happy Friday!

I removed myself from the Internet yesterday and didn't get involved with anything job-hunt related. I spent the day working on editing the photographs in my portfolio. I also had a driving lesson which involved a lot of tooting because my instructor forgot to put the 'L plates' on. I painted my nails, using 17's new magnetised polish (more on that soon) and finished up the afternoon watching 'The Believer', which I thought was really intense but good.

I'm not sure what else to say other than I'm feeling a lot fresher and less teary than in my previous post. As I haven't got anything of my own to share with you at the moment, I thought I would share some things I've enjoyed and appreciated this week.

TV Shows:

I love it when Autumn rolls around, telly is always much better during this season, and it makes such a nice change from the endless repeats on every channel, I could have just watched Dave.

Fresh Meat, Channel 4 — A hilarious new comedy drama from the creators of Peep show, really made me nostalgic over my first year at Uni, apart from I was good and managed to get into halls.
Educating Essex, Channel 4 — I never want this documentary series to end! It's so good, it's funny and sad, as well as being well filmed and un-intrusive. Another programme that I can relate to, I think everyone had a teacher like Mr Drew.
The Great British Bake-Off, BBC Two — I think this may have been better suited to the summer time but I still enjoyed it. I love the design of the tents and the over-use of Cath Kitson everything. Now that the winner has been crowned, I was rooting for Janet but that didn't happen. The competition programme has been replaced by a very uncharismatic cookery show of the same name with the lacking in chemistry duo, Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood, please don't think I mean this version. No wonder they didn't get a lot of screen time during the competition stage.
New Girl, FOX — I was a bit skeptical of this Zooey Deschanel comedy, not being a big fan of anything Zooey is in, but she's won me over. If you watch any new American programme this season make it this one.


Topshop, £15

Topshop might actually have produced something I would actually want and might be able to afford to buy! I reckon it's titch and probably wouldn't suit me but it is cute and anything less than £20 at Topshop is nothing to be sniffed at, I will have to investigate further.

Beard by Matthew Rainwaters

I kind of can't wait for this book to be released over here, it has the neatest portraits inside. I know Moon would love it.

Flickr Stream from Niagra Falls' Nightmares Fear Factory. Hilarious set of photos showing visitors shocked expressions and reactions to the 'most haunted house in the North West'. It seems like a fun place to go, and if you get really scared, you can gain some internet stardom.

I'll get back to posting the standard stuff soon, I have some nice things planned for the weekend, and I'm hoping to head back to the carboot. ♥
