CRISIS!!

Hi there guys!

I thought I'd do a quick update since my last post was 2 MONTHS ago!!

Basically, my laptop charger has stopped working so I can't use my laptop until I get a new one. They're really cheap but I have other things to buy such as clothes etc.

 I've recently been trying to sort out college, get a job and make plans for this year and next.

 With college, I was going to start hairdressing this year but I've had no response from my college about starting etc, and my mother saw an advertisement in a cafe window about a catering apprenticeship, and since I need the money and don't mind doing a bit of random training this year, I've applied for that. I'll find out next week if I get in or not. If not, I'll either continue looking for a job or re-apply for hairdressing and hopefully have something to do!

 Last month, my sister got married and it was a beautiful ceremony, it was in a hotel just in the outskirts of the town I live in, and there was a lovely atmosphere, plenty of friends and family attended-I also got invited to my Aunt's wedding next year, who's getting married to her lovely girlfriend who she's been with for most of the past decade. I'm definitely looking forward to this, I love weddings and parties and dressing up all classy!

 Last weekend I travelled over 130 miles to London, where I saw Lady Gaga's Born this Way Ball at Twickenham Stadium! This was the absolute highlight of my life and I'd love to go several times over and I definitely would-if only I had the funding to! I wore a simple outfit-I gold and black vest layered with a sheer black shirt, burgundy leggings, black high heels and simple jewellery-triangle earrings, a gold bird ring and a pearl necklace. I got a few good pictures but didn't bother taking too many as I was busy dancing. The only downside was having seated tickets, I was sat with loads of older people who didn't fancy much dancing and from what I heard, didn't seem to understand Lady Gaga at all!

Planning a new tattoo!! I'm thinking of one for the top of my foot but I'm not going to do a big reveal until around January/February time when it's actually done, I'm very excited for it.


There probably won't be much activity on this blog for another couple of months, sadly. I'm trying as fast as I can to get enough money to get a new charger for my laptop, but until then I may be able to do more posts on my mother's laptop as I am now!

I do use twitter on my mobile, though...so if you'd like to follow me, my main Twitter is @mrphineprincess :-)

Love, Nikki Marie. xox

Dreams and Fortunes

Just a quick one!
I've been having lots of dreams lately and one I'd like to share is from last night. Basically I was in some sort of car park for like an old ladies bingo club thing at night and I saw Lady Gaga..with no security or anything, so I was like "Gaga! Hi please give me a hug" and then we hugged and it was lovely and I went to my car to get my phone and I was like "Lady Gaga! I'm so sorry but can I have a picture?" And she copied me in a fake English accent and was like "I'm so sorry" and we were laughing but she got her phone out (which was a white iPhone) and we had a picture together and I got all excited because I was thinking about how she would put it on Twitter!

So that was my dream and it probably seems a bit sad to some of you but I woke up feeling happy and it was nice, sad that it was a dream though but maybe it will come true one day, who knows!! 


This is a slip I got in a fortune cookie a little while ago but I keep my fortunes, and this one says 'You have an ambitious nature and may make a name for yourself' Which I think is quite cute! I have about three of these little slips stuffed in my phone, between the case and the battery and they always make me smile a bit because you can usually always find a link between your life and the saying so you really think it's 'fate' or whatever to have gotten the cookie that you did. 


This is me today, I kind of like the way my hair is, all wavy and cute. The condition is getting better s-l-o-w-l-y and I'm usually someone who thinks if something doesn't happen straight away that it's probably never going to happen, that's why I've got so many different brands of products because I'm always trying out new stuff that works really fast!! I love the repairing hair mask that I have from Herbal Essences which is this one:

It works so well and smells absolutely amazing. My sister has the purple one which is called 'Tousle Me Softly' Because her hair is stick straight and it basically makes your hair dry wavy, which mine tends to do naturally but I sometimes do use that when I'm at her house ;-)

Today I woke up at half past 9 and got ready to go and see my tutor at college about getting onto my course in September but apparently I've already had my interview (which is basically what I wanted to talk about sorting out) so I just had to do an entry exam, which I'm going to re-take next month because I didn't have chance to revise as I didn't know about it...so I'll be revising for that! Then I went for a quick walk through town to see if anybody I know was in but I only saw 1 person I knew...who didn't recognise me :-( Oh well!

I don't have anything more to talk about other than I may be getting another tattoo soon! But I'm not spilling any plans because that's not too much like me when it comes to tattoos :-)

                                          Au revoirrr!!

Updates!

Hello, lovelies!! 

I'm really working my way around this blog, usually I take so long to take to things but recently I've been able to pick things up quite fast, which is good as I'm a little on the impatient side!! 

I've been so busy lately, finishing up with college and everything, trying to sort out next years course! 

I finished my tanning qualification which if I'm honest, I didn't expect to be able to do at all because I missed a week and it was only a 5-week course so I had to do all my catch up and it was stressful, then last week I was sat sorting out my folder work to find out I still had to do 2 tans that day to complete! But I got it done AND got a tan myself, which turned out a lot better than it usually does on my skin! 

So there's a picture of me and my friend Leanne, our chests are looking quite dark but pale faces because we didn't have any darker foundation, bearing in mind this picture was taken with flash so it definitely didn't look as noticeable in real life.

Another thing I've been doing is damaging my hair! It sounds bad but it was completely an accident. I bleached my hair thinking it would go a lovely foxy orange colour (Lady Gaga was my inspiration for this)    
So this is the beautiful colour I expected to go first time (high hopes, I know) but I left the bleach on for waaaaay too long, so it went a really weird yellow colour, with some WHITE roots and I thought, 'There is no way I'm going white blonde again' and my hair was ABSOLUTELY frazzled and stringy, so I didn't want to put a blonde dye on, but also I didn't want to put brown back on-I'd just have been wasting money! So I slept with conditioner and a shower cap on, and nipped into town the next day and got a nice purple colour by Directions. It's called 'Violet' and it looks like this;


I get a lot of compliments on it and I like being purple, I've had it a few times before but only with blonde or brown with it, this is the first time on its own and I got a comic award in college, 'Most Outrageous Hair Colour' because I change my hair a lot and try to go 'out there' a bit :-)

Well, that's a couple of updates from recently so I may do another post some time this week if I get any time! If not, I'll update Sunday/Monday hopefully with some more pictures as I'm going to my first hen party on Saturday! For my sister, we're just going to go out and have a few drinks, fun fun fun!
