My Cactus Collection.

I have internet! Woohoo! It was a long old weekend without it :p

I thought today, seeing as my whole life is still in boxes/between houses (today I had to walk to work in an oversized cardigan and leggings as I left all my clothes in the old house :'( ) I would share with you one of the loves in my life - my Cactus/Cacti collection! 

I love them! They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes - I even have a tattoo of a Catctus on my leg (you can see it at the bottom of the post or HERE) I've been learning alot about them and how to take care of them and what the different types are called. I found an awesome book on them in a charity shop which has been really useful.

 So, here they are:

When this one bloomed I almost wept with joy!

I stuck a birds skull that I had cleaned up in this one to give it that old desert feel.

Heres my a picture of my tattoo from right when I had it done, the colour has come out alot better since it's healed:

And for added house-plant greatness - my Venus Flytrap!

Do you like plants? What if your favourite type?

Nike Free 5.0+ Running Shoes and A New Tattoo.

I was recently contacted by SportShoes.com asking me if I think fitness should also be fashionable. Personally I don't feel you have to look good or have the latest sports gear to be fit - if your getting fit then thats all that should matter. It was sparked in response to the UK newspaper The Daily Mail's Jan Moir criticising Katherine Jenkins claiming she cared more about looking good than running for a cause - which is obviously bull!

Anyway I recently started a part-time job at a local Coffee shop - its alot of running to and from behind the counter so these awesome Nike Free 5.0+ running shoes are PERFECT to wear at work! They are so light and bouncy my feet don't ache at all after my shift!

As the title suggests I got a new tattoo also 2 weeks ago. It was a spur of the moment thing as I was up there with a friend, I actually was going to et a moon but everybody has them so I left with this awesome Cactus. I've recently been growing some Cacti and they are so cute!

Hope you are having a great bank holiday weekend! The weather has been beautiful :)
