got wifi!
which is pronounced “weefee” here, amazing. this hostel is GORGEOUS - we’ve got the big room at the back with a view of the mountains, big comfy beds and the lushest ensuite! it’ll be so nice to come back to this plushness after every single day up in the rainy, snowy mountains. this week in luarca was absolutely brilliant and hilarious - free wine with every meal, becoming...

españa: part uno
so right now i’m in the middle of a “geotraverse” of the northern spanish coast, which i can only assume involves a lot of “ooh, what is this rock, shall we lick it to find out?” business and sketching pretty pictures. maybe some frolicking in the sea if it’s warm enough, which it’s probably not. i can only guess, because i don’t actually have access...

all paaacked!
it’s hard to be excited about a fieldtrip which starts at 4:30am on monday morning, is costing us all a lot of money and taking away from our study time (we have nine exams straight after we get back) - but who knows, it could be a larf! catching up with my favourite tellybox shows tonight, sleeping in until midday tomorrow, answering all my remaining messages on various sites and...

in exactly two days' time
i’ll be dragging my suitcase to meet caroline so we can wait up until half four in the morning, then go get the coach with everyone to landaaan! none of us can really be bothered with this trip, but we’ll make it fun somehow ♥ i had better put some new posts in the queue to keep my tumblr fresh while i’m away licking rocks and fist-fighting bears.

support hannah berney! →
the multinational talent show, the voice, has finally come over to the united kindgom - and the fantastic hannah berney, sister of my best friend in secondary school (she’s in the video too, haha), passed the auditions with flying colours thanks to her incredible talent! she was always such a star back in school and it was clear that one day she’d be a national name. if you live in the...

ohh my giddy god’s pyjamas. for somebody like me, who never gets to travel and hasn’t even been on a plane before, this is a pretty big deal! ♥ now if only i could actually get to sleep in my own bed, since i have to be up in four hours..

apparently i'm an owl now
apparently i’ve also made a post with that title before. this is what being a student does to you. you literally sprout feathers and a little beak and suddenly get the craving for a tasty little vole. really though, it’s gone four a.m. again and i’m still practically bouncing off the walls, even though i studied for about ten hours and did a pretty intense workout today. why? ...

the titanic's last moments →
the titanic voyage | minute-by-minute exactly one hundred years ago, right this second, the majestic, “unsinkable” titanic was going under. it’s so hard to imagine the sheer emotion, panic and personal stories of the people onboard when we are so far detached from those events now; but reading this feed, as each moment unfolds, makes it feel far more close to home. all those...

when a real ambulance goes by, he gets all excited and joins in.. but as it fades away into the distance, he stops and just sits there on his branch in a sad little silence, thinking, “she coulda been my soulmate.” still a better love story than twilight

happy easter!
easter sunday’s almost over here, but i hope you’re all having/had a lovely day, however you celebrate it (even if you don’t)! i didn’t get any chocolate eggs because the shops ran out pretty fast, but we did have an amazing roast chicken dinner ♥ [[MORE]]sadly, as also happens at christmas, i’ve seen a few complaints around today (honestly, every year) about easter...

mum's just given me her black leather bumbag
americanos call them “fannypacks”, which is funny because “fanny” means “vagina” in britain which actually makes more sense anyway because they go on the front of your body but anyway, this will come in serious handy for my spanish and french mapping excursions! not only will it be ace for keeping my pens and pencils close-at-hand, i can also hit bears with it...

there's a mineral called "cummingtonite"
this is why i can’t focus on my studies. more delightful geological naughtiness includes doggers, knockers, intrusive dykes, glory hole mining, & plenty of cleavage. ♥

say hello to the newest dinosaur! →
Yutyrannus | “beautiful feathered tyrant” An early relative of T. rex from the Cretaceous period, this gorgeous beastie was about as big and heavy as a large car, and was covered in beautiful filament-like feathers.

drip drip drop, little april showers
oooh i want to watch bambi now. our weather’s being brilliantly unpredictable - feeling like summer one day, with garden barbecues, sunbathing and stuffy bedrooms; then belting it down or snowing the next! lots of people are complaining (in true british fashion), but i think it’s fun. springtime is supposed to have crazy see-sawing weather! ♥
