Oh woe is me, I’m not feeling so good today. Alas, I had a delicimost drink this morning to make me feel better, white chocolate mint mocha with tiny marshmallows… how fluffy. It was amazing, though.

• I LOVE it, I would totally maybe wear it. Teddy bear coat.

• Photos from the London book trade, ie. rooms of heaven!

• Love this tiny pod kitchen!

• Another eye watering treat from Tim Walker and Tim Burton… amazing.
• Started life drawing again this week, my god I’m so rusty… also I didn’t draw the wrinkled peen.
• Also started Spanish class, Hola!
• Diablo Cody, of Juno writing fame, will be screen writing the new Sweet Valley High movie – great news! Let’s hope it doesn’t disappoint at box office as much as Jennifers Body.

How were your weeks? Anything fun planned for the weekend?

Hey guys, thought you might wanna take a look!

I seriously cannot wait. Jesus.

Oh wow, what a fantastical thing to appear first thing Monday morning! Some of the concept art for Alice in Wonderland has been released, and it’s doesn’t dissapoint. I’m especially loving the representation of the red queen!

Tweedledum and Tweedledee

Flowers! I love how these have been made, too, makes the disney ones look so amateur!

White rabbit, with his bloodshot eyes.

You can see bigger versions (and a HD zoomy thing of the 3 ‘scene’ images) on the USA today website, here!

• Putting offers in for houses – it’s scary but also totally cool at the same time!
• Making and eating loads of salsa fresca and guacamole, bring on the antiox’s! Seriously though, how great is homemade salsa???
• Catching up on last weeks heroes via the iplayer on New Macbook
• This Sunday we’re heading to the MPH show at the Birmingham NEC, that’s right kids, your friendly neighbourhood HipHopper is a bit of a carspaz. (ZOMG get to see the topgear boys!).
• Booking tickets for a May trip to Hong Kong. How super thrilling! We’re going to see one of our besties who moved out there earlier this year for teaching purposes.
• Mary Kate and Ashley’s book, Influence, hasnt’ been released over here yet, but not long now! I’m looking forward.
• I feel proud for my country’s Vogue issue this month, have you seen it? It’s totally amazing. Have some scans…

  

  

  

  It’s full of delicious Roald Dahl inspired images featuring HBC and Tim Burton (photographer Tim Walker), juxtaposed with Book Art and amazing fashion. What more would a girl want?

  The small girl smiles. One eyelid flickers. She whips a pistol from her knickers. She aims it at the creatures head, and bang bang bang she shoots him dead!

• It’s children in need day, which means loads of snacky nomnoms for tea whilst watching BBC personalities make themselves look like wankers. Oh, and of course, it’s all about the kids too.
• Adam bought me a most excellent CD just ‘cos I’m ace, it’s the Nightmare Revisited CD. Much fun to be had there I can say!
• I’ve beaten it out at the gym this week, fuck it was hard going. Anyway, I feel much better for it and am totally proud that I actually did my quota when I felt like giving up after 10 mins on the crosstrainer. So that’s good.

As a side note, has anyone read Twilight? I’m tempted to read it because of them film (but fuck, Cedric Diggory is not a vampire…). Also, the woman at the library was dressed like a bin bag the other day. Seriously, black shiny legging things, black boots and this totally ugly, hidiously badly cut shiny black shift dress thing. Do Not Want!
