I think I've just hit an all time low.
I really really want a coffee maker, more specifically a Tassimo coffee maker. Can get a decent one for about £70... but I'm holding off buying it because I'm not 100% what the average calorie content of a coffee/hot drink made in one is and if they don't have skimmed milk pods, I'm not getting it.
I can not base life decisions on whether or not there's a low fat option >.<'

Annnnnd I'm outta here :D
Well, almost.
BF came over Wednesday and gave me the extra big suitcase I need to fit all my stuff in for christmas (oops. It's really heavy and it's going to be great fun getting it on a packed train... three times... yay?)... he was meant to go home Wednesday evening but he kinda stayed the night. I had nothing to do with that ;) He said just before he left that I was 'better than [he] had expected'... apparently he was expecting a night of suicide attempts and self harming. That boy's such a charmer... as I explained to him, when I'm alone everything gets on top of me and I feel terrible. When I'm around him or other company, normally I'm fine unless I'm feeling really shit. I dunno. I can control myself around people.
I'm trying to find a new theme for my tumblr (http://slipandsink.tumblr.com/)... hmm. Thinking about paying for a premium one, nothing over £2 though. Any suggestions?
I really don't have much else to say. Sad times. Other than how frustrating it is to eat less and stay the same weight. I eat about 1100 calories a day now and I'm STILL 140lbs. WTF.
Also... I do still read your blogs. Honestly.

I'm sorry
For being such a bad blogger. Truth is there's so much in my life right now I don't have time to blog here...
Currently I'm in lectures 15 hours a week, cheerleading 7 hours a week, gymnastics and swimming 6 hours, walking for at least two hours a day, planning and setting up extracurriculars for about 10 hours a week and sleeping a solid 9 hours every night. In my free time now I either eat (minimally) or am trying to do uni work. Or make some money. I have a few experiments (not as bad as they sound!) lined up that pay so I'm doing them a lot, as well as the ones I need to do for my course credit.
I've applied for a job manning phone lines calling alumni at the end of the month and a job mentoring pupils in the local high schools to try and keep them in education (should be interesting...). One is paid (the phone line) the other isn't but is great work experience and a chance to show that I am passionate about education, psychology and making up for my past mistakes.
I'm also trying to clean up my cheer squads website, which admittedly is nearly finished, just needs the last bits on it. Just haven't had the time/will to battle with HTML.
New flatmates moved in today; three Chinese guys and one Chinese girl. First impressions are good but still a little wary and anxious. :/
This week was the first week of lectures, and was largely introductory/slow ones. Apart from one - psychobiology. You know when you're on a rollercoaster that starts out slow and then gets really really fast and you lose track of where you are and what you're doing? It's still fun but a little WTF. Yeah, got about an hour into that two hour lecture and she just lost me completely. I was doing fine and then BAM it's gone. God damn it. So I've got to spend at least an hour today going over that stuff... Because I am determined to get over 65% in my modules this year. I wouldn't tell anyone else that (I've told them I'm aiming for a 2:2 - 55% - so if I get it I won't be disappointed) though.
Plus my room is an absolute TIP. So today... Tidy room, spend an hour going over lecture notes, wander into town. Plan.
I still need to do the last few posts of thinspo from my old computer.

Lookbook and some uni news...
I made an account... here. Doubt I'll ever post anything because a) I have no fashion sense, b) I'm 30lbs heavier than every other girl on there and c) I don't spend much money on clothes nowadays. Maybe it's the vodka talking there!
Me and Andy keep fighting. Last night we had a blazing row and all manner of names were slung around, he called me (amongst other things) a 'heartbreaker, a selfish slag, a bitch and a r***rd (I know some people hate that word!)'. Mind you, I did go for the classic weakest point solution and told him he was a waste of space and he'd never do anything with his life. Turns out he'd spent the day in a bit of a depression worrying that he was going to be stuck in a crap job for the rest of his life. My bad. Unfortunately I have an uncanny ability to go for someone's deepest fears and regrets.
Must stop eating. My weight has stayed around 142lbs but I spend a lot of time eating junk atm. Today was half a Pizza Hut pizza, super noodles, chocolate, cheese, now vodka... Bleurgh.
On the uni front, I have to write a 1500 word essay by the 20th of August and do two exams some time at the end of August. I still technically have nowhere to live, but I'm getting closer to having somewhere to live!

Please excuse
the crappy new banner, I'm in the process of remodelling! I'm also going to try and get labels on all the posts. This will however take quite a while!

I genuinely don't get this...
Random rant ahead XD
I watch various TV shows about weightloss... Supersize vs. Superskinny (<3), Biggest Loser, Heavy.
Biggest Loser irks me. I watch it, because lets face it, seeing people lose weight is a massive motivator for me. And it's a bit of reverse thinspo! Overall, it's a decent program. But what annoys me is it's so contradictory! We all know very well that weight loss and weight gain is a simple equation - calories vs. exercise. They spend a lot of time impressing that the contestants should be exercising more than they do (I think I heard the trainer shout '4 HOURS A DAY!' in one program, which seems mightily excessive!). They do challenges and 'temptations'. This is the bit I don't get.
Temptations consist of sticking a nice, tasty treat in front of the contestants and telling them that if they find immunity, they can't be voted off that week no matter if they've gained weight. It also normally involves the contestants having to eat the nice tasty treat - or ten of them. The episode I just watched had 100 cupcakes laid out in formation, with 4 cupcakes containing a sheet of paper with immunity on. That makes 25 to 1 odds that you'll find the paper. The contestants had to eat as many cupcakes as they could in the time allowed to try and find the immunity. None of them found it... One guy ate 11 cupcakes. Then after the challenge they went back to the flat, and the personal trainers came in and shouted at them! What?!
I'm just an angry person atm. Thinspo post coming up next :)
