YES

Some nice people I took some photos of a while back.
Actually I lie, Boyfriend took the first three.
I'm getting the keys to my house tomorrow. It's been a long time coming, I can feel my brain turn to mush from the lack of stimulation, college will do me some good.
My dad and I are both ready for a break from each other too. Country living is beginning to grate, I long for a bustling metropolis.
The worst thing is the separation from Boyfriend. A whole three hours away, but not far enough for us to admit to a 'long-distance' relationship. My holidays will be spent in the charming student accommodation of NUI Galway and I can't wait.

I hate working Saturday nights.

But can I just say, don't be fooled by pictures like this....



...people who play slots are more like this....



...and I LOVE them for it.

Just wonderful...

Look, it's me! A student! Yarrr, finally decided to follow my own advice and ditch all things arts inclined, writing essays and reading books for hours is surprisingly not my cup of tea.
This time next year I will hopefully have completed my first year of Graphic Design. I have shaken my fear of all art based subjects. Yay!
Last weekend was also awesome. New people and a new crush. Being eighteen is immense, especially when someone is writing you limericks and making you giggle.

In other news, colette has been providing much entertainment art wise. Along with drooling over their massive collection of to-die-for clothes, they have a lovely and expansive archive of previous and current exhibitions of very talented and edgy-type artists.
Some of my favourites being;
Sølve Sundsbø...



and Mika Ninagawa...




Colette makes me swoon. Just wonderful.

Girl Crush #1

Ah girl crushes. Basically the women I want to be. They pretty much take up my life, inspiring me when I'm a little lost with decisions, ranging from college to fashion so I decided to post them up here for communal swooning and admiration.

First on the list is the Queen Fafinette herself. Toulousian graffiti artist and wife of the wonderful DJ Mehdi. She is responsible for my header and all things holding The Carmine Vault as their home address. Oh please, Fafi, can we be friends? I promise I'm not as creepy as I seem!








Photos: from all over.

Kuwaiiiiiii

I can't tell you how much I squealed while watching this.
