I haven't updated my blog in ages. I'm a slacker, I know. I'll try to update this a lot more often in the future, but for now here's my little review of some Simple products that I adore!

NICK & FISI!
I seriously can think of no more perfect photograph. Both of my favourite Formula One drivers together in 1st & 3rd in qualifying for the Belgian GP.
I watched the race this morning and I was so happy to see Giancarlo Fisichella finish in second place, although I beleive he could've won if it wasn't for the KERS on Kimi's Ferrari. If the safety car hadn't come out I believe Fisi would have won it by a good margin. Still, second is an amazing result for Force India and Giancarlo. It's the first points ever for Force India and for their first points to be from second position is amazing!
I also had high hopes from Nick Heidfeld, but sadly he didn't get an amazing start. By the first corner he was second, but I think someone hit him and he was relagated to around 8th place. He managed to finish in 5th place! It's still points for him and the team.
Congratulations to Giancarlo & Nick. And thankful for making my weekend!

MAC lipstick comparison - Saint Germain & Colour Crafted
I know a few people are talking about how MAC's Colour Crafted lipstick is a more wearable version of Saint Germain, well I'd be inclined to disagree with that. Saint Germain is more a bubblegum bluey-pink colour while Colour Crafted is just a pretty light pink colour.
Colour Crafted is a Frost & Saint Germain is an Amplified, the first Amplified lipstick I bought (and my only) and I find it rather hard to wear without tonning it down slightly by applying it with a lip brush, but I do love the colour.

Gosh, Elf, Stargazer & River Island
GOSH Effect Powder - Holographic Silver. This reminds me of a more finely milled version of 3D Silver Glitter Brilliants by MAC. Very pretty.

Swine flu?
Hi guys. If you're wondering where I've been lately then I'll tell you. I'm pretty ill right now. I'm fairly worried it's swine flu so called my GP and talked to her. She said it's hard to tell over the phone if it's swine flu, but the NHS are advising people to not go into the doctors surgery because they're worried of it spreading. At the moment I'm not being given Tamiflu, but if it doesn't get better she said she'd give it to me.
Thankfully I'm not in the 'in danger' bracket. I'm not a child, I'm not old and I'm not diabetic, but I'm worried because my dad is diabetic. I hope he doesn't get it. I'd feel so guilty if he did.
I'm in such a foul mood today. I didn't sleep at all last night because I couldn't breathe and my nose was running all over the place so I got up at half three and watched A Bit of Fry and Laurie because I was sick of the sight and feel of my bed.
Hopefully I'll be back to making videos very soon.

Stockcount's are terrible
Have you ever done a stock count before? If you have you'll know that it is one of the most boring experiences of your life, especially when they are straight after a nine hour shift! In totaly I've been at work for 13 hours straight and I'm knackered to be honest with you! It's all made worse by the fact that I'm working tomorrow too and I never usually work Sundays anymore. Sigh. Oh well. I just need to keep thinking of the money, right? At least a hundred quid extra in my paypacket!
Also, I thought I should mention that the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation really is fantastic! I've had it on for 14 hours and it still looked as amazing when I came home as it did when I'd just put it on. I'm very impressed to say the least.
I also think everyone needs to watch and listen to this greatness-

Field Music = Love
Peter & David Brewis (Andy not pictured. Sniff.)
You have no idea how happy I was made when one of my fellow Field Music fan friends posted a link to an article featuring the news that Field Music will be returning for a 3rd/4th (depending on if you class Write Your Own History as an album proper) album. Field Music are simply the best band in the world in my opinion. I've adored them for years now and have enjoyed many a good gig in the presence of three amazing gentlemen named Field Music.
When I first heard their music I was amazed at how unique it was and I soon fell in love with the noise that was unmistakeably Field Music.
The first gig I went to was at Leeds Cockpit. I only got to see Field Music as Field Music four times, but several other times as other incarnations, The Week That Was and School of Language (I was particularly impressed when David as School of Language supported himself in Field Music... If that makes any sense!?
It's been far too long since I've seen this band, the last time being at The Harley in Sheffield as The Week That Was. I still find it amazing that David recognises me. Such an amazing down to earth bloke.
And there is a slice of Field Music goodness for anyone who many not have heard them..
