Hello all it has been so long !! I'm sorry wow

This is generally a super quick outfit post - I don't normally do these due to embarrassment but hopefully these aren't too bad !!

I also rediscovered my love for Kyary and I feel happy for the first time in ages !!

also have a pic of my howards end poster starring helena b c

I've embarrassed myself with the japanese, it's just google translate wow that was kinda lame actually. (im not a weeaboo)

The jumper/shirt was from a vintage shop in Sheffield, shoes from Office and tapestry skirt handmade by my cousin (£15 each from here !!). We're supposed to wear a christmas jumper to school on friday to raise money for prom/yearbook (I'm not sure which) but I don't have one and can't be bothered to buy one especially for it so wow rebel !! ! !!!!!! !

Once again sorry for it being so long since I've posted, I'm not sure whats going on but I'm having a mid life crisis thing with the whole internet game so I probably need to go on a hiatus for a while. So until next time, I hope you all have a great christmas if you celebrate it and ok cool goodbye friends !!

I have a horrible feeling I'm gonna look back on this post in a weeks time and realise how stupid I am but whatever I guess ??

long time no see

I don't really know what's happening with this blog at the moment. I'm just finding myself looking at everything and disliking things more and more and stuff, like I can't find any motivation to do it. I'm sure it's just a flux and I'm trying to overcome it but it's really hard!! So we'll just have to see how it plans out I guess.

I'm desperately trying to find new clothes for winter and am hoping to make a few outfit posts except with a proper camera (hoPEfully) with better settings etc etc etc. (also need to find willing participants to act as tripod)

Some of you might know I changed my instagram to jemimapoop temporarily while I think of something new, and those people also may know how much It's depressing me because wow I have serious issues with the grid like it ha s to be absolutely perfect and balanced and I laugh because that's really not happening.But anyway yeah that's what it is now...............

On a way lighter note I found a cool band called Vulkano and this song caught my eye so here you go::::::

I /think/ they've been doing some shows with Kate Nash and/or the Tuts (who are also really good).

some pics from myself/tumblr that i'm really feeling at the moment

just realised that these mostly seem focused on incomplete bodies. I think it's subconscious.

I'm gonna spend halloween with Rachel and watch Supernatural all night even though it still scares me a bit. buT IT'S SO GOOD? ?? why didn't I watch it before oh man.

As usual I'm out of things to say um m hopefully my next post will be a bit lighter and yea h I may show you some of my art if I don't get too embarrassed

stay cool innit

H E L L O  A L L

I have been away for far too long but hello I have finally returned to this old website dang flabbit

35mm pictures. super rad sweet shop and Vanathy and Sarah from the beginning of summer when we went to Scarborough for the day

I have just been putting off writing this for ages and ages because everything has just been so busy!! I'm still now trying to get into the swing of school again, which I'm thoroughly not enjoying at all. But that aside, summer was slightly more eventful than I thought it would be - well, I mostly just stayed in bed for hours every morning but when I did actually do a thing it was quite a big thing of a thing so I guess that made up for it a lot. This may take one or two posts to get together, I have loads of pictures as you can imagine!!

here are some random and likely badly chosen pictures from my instagram over the last few months

ew ew ew

I do not look like me and I need to actually start using the actual camera

I'm currently scrounging ebay and etsy for some cute new outfits ready for autumn/winter, which is so weird because I feel like I haven't even gotten used to wearing the few items of summer clothing I have yet. This year has gone so fast?? ?! I really want to get more co-ordinated with my clothes over the next few months, because I don't really have anything that goes well together or anything that doesn't look like I've just picked up whatever I can find on my bedroom floor (which I actually have but sshh)

French Bowie magazine I'm still trying to translate (I can't do it)

One of the big things that happened this summer was going to stay with Leoni who is the coolest, and me her and Amy had an eventful time shopping at Durham market, climbing up cathedral towers, taking photos, running after Leoni's cat Bella and crying over Benedict Cumberbatch. (u ppl im waitin on your photos from the cathedral)

"the gang"

minchellas ice cream w/ extra marshmallows

leoni

35mm pictures from Northumberland

I have heaps of letters to send to my pals on here and I'm trying to balance my time out doing everything and not just one thing (i.e. tumblr, twitter, fanfiction, schoolwork, said letter writing) because I just feel like poop when I think about not having sent anything. ah. I'm sat on my bed right now blasting Marvin Gaye, Otis Redding and Etta James and feeling really reminiscent of  the old days when I couldn't walk around the house without hearing the voice of at least one of them 24/7. Sometimes I miss being 6 years old. Also, my love for Radiohead and Grimes has expanded a loT over the summer and I've discovered that their songs go satisfyingly well together too!!

I also did my bedroom stairs up a little (I'm still working on it though)

there is now a little garland of some of my negatives, doilies with lyrics/playlists written on them, photos, paintings, two dresses and Debbie Harry/The Clash/Howards End posters which are quite cool to walk through before entering the boring bit (my actual bedroom) which is really plain because my ceilings are sloped (attic) which is a bit annoying because I can't do as much with my walls. So I'm trying to find sneaky ways around this problem by using the empty stair space while keeping them climbable!!

picture of Uhura I painted and some ebay stuff that arrived a few weeks ago

Some really surprising news is that the other day I got the go ahead from my parents to paint stuff on my bedroom walls!! I'm hoping to start with an Aladdin Sane above my bed but I'm also thinking about throwing a mr. Spock in there somewhere too hmm m. I'm so excited to do it man, I just really want to be able to spend my time in a space that I know I've made my own and that I enjoy being in if u feel

I recently joined the babemail group too and so a big hello to you if we are just meeting from that, I'm really excited to send you guys all cute letters and stuff!!

It's lovely to be here again, and hopefully I'll be blogging a lot more in the weeks to come.

see you all soon!

jemima xxxxxxxx

((p.s. I'm gonna make a playlist for you all to listen to in my next post))

((the songs are p good don't worry))

((I have a few ideas for photoshoots as well so))

((bye))

STAR TREK IS KILLING ME

no no it really is

i have found myself not breathing a lot over the past few weeks because emotions wow

(look at this and tell me spirk doesn't exist)

anyway

besides crying over sherlock s3 previews/setlock photos/leonard nimoy/martin freeman/william shatner/zachary quinto etc etc etc these past few weeks have consisted of me doing mostly nothing but walking the dog and painting pictures for people's letters (which i will send soon!) as well as the usual moping about on twitter and film watching yhhhhh. i really want to do my bedroom up all cool and jazzy because at the moment it's honestly horrendous and boring and just no nO NO. i fancy one side for fandoms and one side for not - or maybe i'll combine everything??? i don't know i don't know i don't know

(bought these beauties from an antique shop for £3 from which i documented in my instagram feed)

i'm a bit angry that i didn't get the whole book series but oh well i'll find them somehow

i don't think i've said this before but gene roddenberry is fantastic. just wow. the visions he had for the world then make me feel so happy and i just can't put anything into words right now - i really could talk about him and star trek for hours so i'll keep it brief but i just want to say that i loVe how there is uhura as one of the main characters when there was all that oppression as you all know

DIS BE MY MAIN WOMAN RITE HERE

(nichelle is such a goddess)

uhura about to kill someone

(also look at nichelle nichols' hair now it's so cute)

here's a lil piece of trivia for you: did you know that martin luther king jr himsELF encouraged her to keep playing the role when she was considering leaving the show because of the good it was doing for black people??? he said "don't you understand? for the first time we are seen as we should be seen. You don't have a black role - you have an equal role." it makes me so happy i want to cry

and also having cutie chekov at the time of the cold war???::?"?!!!?!///?/ people must have thought he was crazy.

don't get me wrong i know there are problematic things in star trek just like there is in everything, i can acknowledge that, but the point is there are so many /right/ things about it that i have to sing to the world that it's cool. it's all cool.

and let's not forget to mention it showed the first televised multiracial kiss ahhhhhhh

(find that here)

SORRY FOR BEING BORING BUT GEEEEENE ILY

in other news when i say i did nothing.............. i did go to northumberland for a week which was nice and more importantly i actually met Leoni and Amy which was crazy, they're quite possibly the coolest people i've ever met.

most of the pictures i took on film and i must say that one of the highlights of the day was six of us trying to fit into one photobooth (my hair got in the way i think oops)

my scanner is broken so i have to make do

i'm gonna go because i'm really tired wow but i'll add that i may be doing youtube videos again soon

also i think i have a liebster award thing! a post on that is coming soon i promise.

catch y'all on the flipside

♀☆☽ BOBBY'S GIRL ☾☆♀

hello all

i broke up for summer on friday and i am now free for seVEN WEEKS which is still not long enough in my opinion.

my loose feelings of loose freedom are reflected in my loose lack of capital letters (which i already hate at the best of times) (they're ugly) so forgive my grammar today.

we're having some kind of heatwave in england and nobody really knows what's going on. it was nearly 30 degrees up here the other day???? what>?>?? i think everyone is waiting for the rain to appear and being a bit cautious of jinxing the weather or something. it's honestly sweltering though and i'm not used to this at all! i feel sorry for animals with fur. (irrelevant) 

over the holidays i really want to try doing something productive with myself, e.g. do some kind of project, get actual art homework actually done, read a new book series, make a new header for this blog, and i also want to get some more packages/letters sent to people (you can drop me an email if you're up for swaps!) along the way. i think i may have found my solace in swapping packages because it's just so ssss o so exciting! i'm also thinking about having a go at making some clothes, partly inspired by my cousin after she very kindly made me a beautiful purple tartan skirt the other week.

today i went to a weird market thing in town and they were blasting out 90s tunes including disco 2000, which filled me with pulp feelz, and there was an instance of snoop dogg i think which was switched over to enya within fifteen seconds of it playing. that made me laugh because im not the only one who thinks snoopy d is ew>?>??

summer tunes:

inspiration behind post title believe it or not

(my reggae roots)

one of all time faves

another fave

i feel i can probably express myself best with pictures so i took a few screencaps of my tumblr to show what i've been reblogging recently. it's sort of a mix of pastels yet also with bright block colours and patterns/shapes. there's also been a lot of peach/pink/red recently which i think is mostly subconscious? maybe.

(i have started to get serious feelz for george harrison oh dear another life ruiner)

(my only loves in life are middle aged/long dead people and tv shows and films)

(whispers helena martin etc)

(i hate it)

i also have some good news; i now have tickets to see the arctic monkeys in november and i am doing some filming work over the holidays which is really exciting. (i think i may also be working with printing t shirts with yorkshire tee which is just as cool and exciting)

i hope this isn't /too/ jumbled - it sounds ok in my head, but when i actually try to formulate it into words it just splats all over.

in other words have a lovely summer,

jemima xxx

(p.s. i found this singer and she's really quite good have a listen)

the shrine

Hello this post is small but I haven't done a lot lately, other than getting exam results back and catching the flu (in summer I know) and couldn't move or eat a thing for three days. But I'm getting better now.

I decided to put forward some pictures of my Kate Bush wall thing for THE PULP ZINE (cool capitals), pictured here. I hope this classes as a shrine! It's been all over the place in it's three years of life, with bits falling off everywhere and it's a bit crazy but oh well.

KATE BUSH BBY I LOVE YOU

That's all I wanted to say

p.s. I want to go to London this summer

p.p.s I'm going to the Harry Potter studio tour again this summer I am crying

Jemima xxxxxx

bows and flows

Film pictures from last month.

(I should apologise as I haven't as of yet had access to a scanner)

(I may need to borrow one from the art department at school or someting)

I was really excited to get that old roll of film I mentioned developed but a ha ha ha no. There was only a picture of a car...... I was laughing a bit.

Exams are finally over which means I'll have more time for blogging and general internet-ing for the next few weeks. I'm so excited for summer! At school we're all planning to do a high school musical thing (WHAT TIME IS ITTTT) on the last day which will be fun, and it will also confuse the teachers which is a bonus. Today has mostly been spent doing no work whatsoever at school and talking to a bunch of people about eyebrows. I don't know.

This is what I wore last weekend. The brown shirt and small skirt are vintage and the orange collar shirt and long skirt are from ebay. (I'm also wearing a Helena (Bonham Carter of course) necklace I made last year and a Johnlock one from Leoni and which is one of my favourite things ever)

I found a weird line of light in my bedroom and started taking "artistic" selfies (meaning ones that show off the bags under my eyes exceedingly well) (My hair needs straightening again)

p.s. I'm also waiting for this dress to arrive in the post and I am excited.

Some songs I listened to today. Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Lianne La Havas, Alicia Keys.
