And what an interesting day it was!

This morning I had a hair appointment...which may not seem that interesting...but it is...so just listen. You see down here in London the busses are on strike. So I either cab it or walk it...i decided to walk it. I walked 40 minutes downtown and 40 minutes back, great morning cardio! Anyway it was hell on the way there because I was walking against the wind. You know when your ears start to ring because theres so much wind and they kinda hurt? Ya...hate that feeling. I was so cold that my cheeks starting burning..realized I got wind burn(yes!). So I walk into Starbucks headband halfway off my head, cheeks like Santa Clause, eyelashes probably stuck to my eyelids and scarf wrapped around my legs rather my neck. Then you know that sensation when you come from cold to hot and your body is BOLING...well then that happened of course. Anyway I went and tried their new "Caramel Brule" Christmas drink (ive literally tried the whole starbucks menu) and tip of the day: mix the wip cream into the drink..tastes a lot better. The drink itself was nothing special...tasted like a caramel latte accept this had brown sparkles on the wip creme...what schemers. I made a new friend too! The man next to me approached me about my outfit stating "its very 50s inspired my daughter would love it!". We then proceeded to talk about the weather (of course) and vintage clothing...so cool right?! I then went to my hair appointment which gave me an anxiety attack because Ive never been to this place before (and we all know how nervous we are about our precious hair). I got it dyed all brown for the winter, it looks clean and healthy and I love it! Me and the hair dresser chatted it up about musicians and our weak spot for them, shes rad.  After my hair appointment I  happily strolled to this camera place and found a beautiful pentax slr camera which im going to convince my parents to buy for me (seriously its beautiful and its only $100...which for the peolpe who know anything about pentax slr cameras..is an extremely good price). oh the joys of film!...oh the joys of having no money...school.....ANYHOW walked back...of course the wind would change so even on the way back I was walking against it. Went to class, received marks I wasnt glad to see, went to the library and studied, wrote a couple of songs and now im here...typing to you! Yes you! Currently listening to some Neil Young, hes the man! It was hella cold today here, definitely going to have to invest in a new winter jacket. I never realized how important money was until I didnt have any. I hate being on a student budget! AND i realized today that im almost done my first semester here! Swweeet, just a few more months to go!!!...and then i get to work a full time job! OH how I love thee life!- jessica diana

Free Fallin

So im basically screwed for my exam on Wednesday...really screwed. You know what else is really annoying right now? My "y" key on the keyboard isnt working, so in order for it to click I literally have to slam my finger into it...what gives right? Alene told me shes reading my blog so uh...HI AL! I realized I talk a lot about school on this thing..maybe I should stop that nonsense and write about useful things. Im listening to Free Fallin by Tom Petty at the current moment because my friends in Midway State and the Envy got it in my head since Thursday. You know I read once that the reason we get music stuck in our head is because the sound enters this chambre in our brain which creates this repetition effect bouncing off two sides...resulting into us singing it over and over again.Why cant that apply to remembering notes...what gives? "Lastt chanceee for Mary Jane" oh Tom Petty you are a legend. I watched "Im not There" the other night, its this documentary on Bob Dylan...everone should watch it..right now. Let me remind you that as im typing this Im slamming my finger into the "y"...do you even realize how annoying that is? Of course not your "y" probably works now doesnt it. SO FRUSTRATING. Tomorrow im getting my hair done, either getting some blonde in it or going dying it over to hide the remaining blonde. Has this blog been useful? Highly doubt it but it helped with your distractions right? I mean why else do we read someone else's useless thoughts? Because were bored. Because were procrastinating. So my fellow readers thank you for adding me to your list of distractions. The outfits are nothing special been too busy lately to think. I just threw on what was on my floor...which would explain the same skirt two days in a row.-jessica diana

Class is in two hours...

So dont even attempt to ask me why im awake. I cant fall asleep, I've been tossing and turning all night, which has to be the one of the worst feelings. Ana had class this morning at 8 so I woke up with her and havent been able to get back down since. What does one do when they cant sleep? Blog of course! So sorry that I havent been updating my stuff. Ive been really caught up with school and life and such to actually com here and document it down. On thursday I went to a concert to interview a band called the Artists Life, they're super rad. I got some pictures of my outfit from then. Also an outfit from my schools semi formal. Sorry its such a horrible picture but thats one of the only ones I have from the night. The rest of my outfits are on my camera and im way to lazy to load them right now so i'll so a mega post sometime this week of everything...how efficient of me. Im coming home this weekend, really excited to be back in the city and seeing everyone again...where is this post even going? No where...I didnt think it would. One last thing though! Vogue is doing their annual artists issue for December...super excited...you should me too..just sayin. Im going to attempt to sleep again. Night world..or should I say morning.-jessica diana

Bad Reputation

Yes Joan Jett is definitely an idol of mine. Bad Reputation? Cant get better. Kinda sucks that Hit Me With Your Best Shot is ruined for me because of guitar hero...but nevertheless shes magic. Today was a long day, filled with stress, chaos and work and I was on my toes every minute of it. Stress+me=love, so I cant really escape it. Ana and Alene are of course the best support system out there, I can definitely go to them when im needing a few words of wisdom to help me get through. Because even though I love the stress...it still is stress and we all need someone there...whoever invented friends was a genius. I mean think of the role they play in our lives? Think of the job description of being a friend? Late night phone calls, venting sprees, crying, arguments, drunken mishaps, lame men, STRESS...and you...YOU the friend have to be there for it all..kinda nuts to expect out of someone right? Just going to take the time to those friends of mine who continue to stick by my side through my complaints and dramatic speeches. THIS GOES OUT TO YOU LOVELYS...i know you must feel grand that a random blog is being dedicated to you..go nuts, celebrate...wheres the champagne?- jessica diana

Dorm Room Silvers

Below are also pictures too that I took in my dorm today with all the procrastination time before the meeting, and of course before my Ana woke up.

Clinic

I have this song in my head by a band named Clinic but I forgot the name of the song and I cant find it anywhere! It wont leave my brain...not like you care...you care right? Anyhow today was progressive. Woke up nice and early because I had a meeting to go to, only to find out that the meeting got rescheduled to later on. Thanks for ruining my Sunday sleep in, no big deal. Meeting went well I did what was needed to be done and I walked back to the dorm. Taking my sweet time may I add because of the beautiful day outside. It was 18 degrees outside!! Which may be freezing cold for you Mexicans but us Canadians truly know how to savour any heat we can get.  I woke up this morning to see girls tanning on the grass...a little extreme but nevertheless the sun made people happy. The rest of the day was spent moping around like a little depressed girl glued to her chair. I finished all my readings!!...not like you care...but you care right? Now im just doing this blog because its my duty as a conformist to be with the "it" crowd. Tomorrow is supposed to be 20 degrees, which is great for November, thaaaaankkk youuu global warming! I dont care what happens tomorrow, its sunny, and that has to count for something right? So I vow on the sun that tomorrow ( or should I say today) shall be a great day indeed!-jessica diana

Friday night thoughts

Its a cold night in London but nevertheless a Friday night. A Friday night I chose to stay in, watch Julie and Julia, reconnect with old friends, argue with new ones, and procrastinate the work I intended to complete in the first place. I am loading an outfit I wore sometime this week and I apologize for the lack of blogging. No my style has not faded and no Im not giving up on this pointless blog, but Ive been so caught up in the lives of others, school and people I love to remember to take a picture. Im getting into Yoga again, ive gone 4 times this week and its like rediscovering who you are. Imagine, an hour and a half 4 times a week on yourself. Sitting in a room, learning positions and poses that not only help your physical being, but your mental cautious as well. I have an hour, just one hour to shut out the world and all of its mishaps. I have one hour to forget about school and relationships and try my hardest to feel stress free....and it works, yes it works. But within that hour of self reflection and peace, comes a lot of thinking and a lot of realization. I forgot who I was, I am a new person, in a good way but in a bad way as well, it could possibly be the cause of my moodiness all week? I have also included my Halloween costume, I was the hubba to her bubba. Alene and I were bubble gum and Andreia was the wrapper. It worked out better than expected and the night was fantastic. I hope everyone had an amazing halloween. Not to get too personal, but never burn bridges with people that matter, and always make time for people who do. To all a good night- jessica diana
