I get to see my website this Sunday!
Adam sorted it all out as a surprise for my birthday as he is the sweetest of peas. I can’t wait to see, and to show you all of course. Already started shooting with my new camera so watch out for the 35mm take over.

Reached my pre America/goal weight
Well happy. Now I’ve just gotta get toned like a beast. Kinda shot myself in the foot by celebrating with vodka cranberrys last night, but I’m just going to work out extra hard today and pretend it never happened. Maybe.

I’ve just spent the best part of two hours cyberly skulking around eBay trying to find a good, yet reasonably priced, 35mm SLR for my birthday. I did buy at Canon AE-1 already but after contacting the seller 2 weeks after the purchase asking why it hadn’t been marked as dispatched yet, he realised he’d forgotten to send it. He offered me a refund in return for my...
Got back from Newport late this afternoon. Well, I say back, I mean to Oxford. The shoot went amazingly and I’m so excited about the next month or so. Had a long old talk about plots, inspiration, technique and legal stuff, then faffed around with the cameras and lighting for a couple hours so I got to parade around in my wonderful heels that aren’t at all practical for real life. Had...

Max, tired of thinking in his brain, decided to think on paper, and so retrieved his journal from under the bed. His father had given him the journal shortly after he left—how long ago now? Three years?—and had, in white-out, written the words “WANT JOURNAL” on the cover. In this book his father had written as inscription and directive, “Write what you want. Every day, or as often as you can,...

“You can exist without your soul, you know, as long as your brain and heart are still working. But you’ll have no sense of self anymore, no memory, no…anything. There’s no chance at all of recovery. You’ll just exist. As an empty shell. And your soul is gone forever. Lost.”—Remus Lupin on the Dementor’s...

I just went to get up and get my ab roller but I spilt my drink in the process. This is sign right? That I shouldn’t work out. Sign? Yes? Okay it’s definitely not but I am so unmotivated. I have less than a month til the video shoot and a test shoot in like 12 days and I don’t look anything like how I want to. Feeling a bit like I’m destined to fail. Also in the middle of...
“You have to question a cinematic culture which preaches artistic expression, and...”
– Ryan Gosling, actor and feminist, in a letter protesting the NC-17 rating of Blue Valentine. The rating was based on one consensual sex scene, in which he goes down on Michelle Williams. (via crackinthepaint)
I have a feeling it was Ryan who also talks about how strange it is that we can watch...

I am sweating everywhere. I have grunted “fuck you Jillian” at my screen at least 3 times. My stomach hurts from jumping jacks after a days worth of eating and I’m pretty sure the words “anterior hand raises and side lunges” were created by Satan. Yes, it’s crazy to work out at 2 in the morning, but it’s far less crazy than lying on your living...
