Inspiration. (or lack of it)

Welcome to my blog (ooh, good start, past Olivia)

I've been wanting to start one for quite some time (since I read Bryarly, Hayley and Kayley's blogs to be... embarrassingly, honest. I won't include links to their blogs, in case they somehow see me doing it and laugh at my somewhat stalkery blog reading... although isn't that what a blog is for? Who knows).

To be honest, I don't know what to say. I think this blog is going to include recaps of my day, maybe some outfit of the day pictures, pictures I've taken and maybe just some random things I'm thinking about.

Basically, I realised recently that everyone I like or admire in the world of internet success writes. Whether it be for fun or for a career. I on the other hand write nothing but literature analysis and the occasional drama essay -thanks to my current academic 'career'- but I have always wanted to be able to write well, and practise makes perfect, so here goes.

Today has been quite a boring day though. I woke up, forcing myself out of bed and feeling increasing amounts of dread about the day to come (this dread has been appearing in larger concentrations every morning since I started my exam revision schedule), and instantly catapaulted myself straight over to the area of my floor inhabited by my drama folder. From there, I proceded to read over all of my drama notes from the past year, and my revision plans progressed slowly from then untill about 12 o'clock.

Since then, I've eaten two meals, done a lot of procrastination and had a shower. My hair is puffy, my dress doesn't match my tights and I am unsure of whether to be feeling happy that I got today's work out of the way, or guilty that I didn't really do a lot. To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how much I'm supposed to be doing.

Okay, I think that's going to have to conclude my post for now, as I'm worried that the more I write, the more boring it's becoming.

I think I'm going to write on and off, between revision, for the time being, but I am absolutely determined to blog every day in July, and from the 15th of June 2012, this blog is going to become a regular thing.

I have no idea how people interract on this website, so I doubt I'll have anyone reading this right now, but it can be for me, Olivia. To capture the things I do, the things I eat and wear and, most importantly, the things I'm thinking.

Okay, future Olivia (whom I shall assume is the only person reading this), that's enough monotony for now. I'll see you in a couple of days... or in June. You know, whenever.


Also, I like these things people throw onto the ends of their blogs, so I'm doing one.

Nail colour: Foxglove by No7
Currently reading: Lord of the Flies (for english, but I love it as a book, so it counts)
Music: Of Monsters and Men, Lady Godiva (Alex Day) and yesterday I had a brief dabble in Lily Allen (nostalgia) and the band Cake (curious, due to their name, and my opinion has not yet surfaced)
