It's true

I Want It All

Right now, I want to be a geek. I really really want to work hard, I don't care if I don't go out at the weekend, I don't want to be behind. A-levels are really hard and all I can think of is that if I don't work and get the right grades, then that's it. It's all over. I really would do anything to be a vet but I know it won't just come to me. You know when you're so passionate about something, but it's so far away and everything uncertain? It's horrible.

MGMT

As I mentioned in my previous post, I went to see MGMT with my best friend on Thursday. I bought her the tickets for her birthday an we'd wanted to see them for ages so we were really excited! We got the train and queued for ages but got a really good place about 3 people back from the front :) I had a cold and felt a bit crap so that spoilt it a bit, but we still had a great time!
The gig was really good, the supporting band were the Dum Dum Girls who were ok, lacked personality but they had a few good songs. Mind you, what do I know? When we went to see Florence and the Machine, the XX were supporting and we thought they were crap but look at them now!But MGMT were so good! Most of their songs aren't that upbeat and dancy so we couldn't really get into it but some of their songs were really energetic and got the crowd going. They played some songs from their latest album 'Congratulations' and their old one 'Oracular Spectacular' but the best were probably Time to Pretend, Brian Eno, Electric Feel and of course Kids.So overall, I'd say it was a really good gig, but not amazing just because the songs weren't fast enough to really get into. They also left Congratulations until the very end (we had to leave 5mins early to catch the train) so we didn't get to see the whole song which was a shame, but never mind! Check out their album on Spotify or whatever, it's not that good at first but the songs are definitely growers!

Thanks for reading, Georgina x

P.S. None of these are my pictures as you probably realised (all from Google Images) Neither of us took a camera which was annoying!

I'm sorry for the bad blogging again, a week of school, homework, running, young farmers, my job and a new one...canoeing (!?) has meant I've had little time for blogging! I'm going to see MGMT tomorrow with my friend, I bought her the tickets for her birthday. Oh I'm excited! I might do a bit of a review afterwards, just to let you know what the new album's like etc. :) So yarrs, hope you're all ok and have something nice to look forward to this week :)

Much love, Georgina x

Autumn

Oh autumn, how I love you. I'm sitting here wearing a woolly jumper, a hoodie and a scarf and I'm so cosy, that's just one of the reasons I love this time of year. The cold bright mornings with dew on the grass and sun shining between orange leaves. Snuggling up in the dark evenings with hot chocolate and a blanket. Walking through parks or woods surrounded by colour, your feet crunching on the ground beneath you. Red noses peeking out between hats and scarves, the smell of warm food on a cold day and the ever-closer excitement of Christmas...

I keep getting little reminders of all these things. Like déjà vu in small doses...I'm just a romantic in a good mood listening to Bombay Bicycle Club and feeling happy :) Here's a load of pictures for you, they're big because I forgot to change the size on the uploader, but never mind :)

I hope you are all well and enjoying the cold weather as much as me! Thank you for reading :) Georgina x

P.S. I always go on spotify to find my blog titles and I was so happy to find Bombay Bicycle Club have a song called Autumn...a coincidence that makes my blog title see very unimaginative!

P.P.S. All photos from weheartit.com they make me proud to be ginger as all the girls seem to have red hair!

It's Working

I'm not going to rant in this post. I'm not going to explain why I want to rant and I don't want to talk about my week. For some reason I'm incredibly happy, so happy I actually feel like crying. So happy that I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad...But there's a huge grin on my face so I guess it's not the latter. There's no reason really, I suppose life's good, really good. I am so happy with where I am and I feel like my life is going forwards not stuck in a rut. The bad bits are there but they're small and insignificant compared to the good. I can see the future but I'm also loving now. It's all just going so well :)

Put The Book Back On The Shelf

I apologise for this week's poor blogging, I'm tired and busy and generally stressed. Sixth form really isn't that great, I have loads of work already and that's on top of being a busy person and having a job. I will update you at the weekend but for now, I hope you're all ok and please bear with me while I get this week over and done with :)
