#6 Food

so-called... I love domino's cookies. 'nuff said.

#5 Memory

or memories. 

This is a display cabinet I got from my dad and sister for my birthday a couple of years ago. It has some personal item in it. Photographs, cards, the blank piece of paper tat posed as a diploma on my graduation, a miniature Versace Crystal Noir bottle my mum gave me a few years back, and a perfume, scarab and phial my boyfriend sent me when he got back from holiday in Egypt, before we officially started dating so it was all very surprising and exciting. I only ever used that perfume for special occasions though; it's too precious to me. 

#4 Time of Day

Nighttime is my time. I've always been somewhat nocturnal. I like the night, that's when I'm inspired to do stuff and usually feel quite awake. There is rarely any pressure for me to do things at night. And when I finally go to sleep, I get to escape from reality and dream. 

#3 Music

My favourite band and my favourite gadget - the iPod. 

#2 Book

2nd day of the instagram challenge. Topic of today: book.

I love my copy of H.P Lovecraft's Complete Fiction, it's a lovely leather bound book and some pretty good stories, too. 

#1 Colour

First day of the 14 Days of Love Instagram Challenge, Colour

My favourite colour is red, because it's bold and inspired confidence. Also, my favourite shoes are red. I love the bright red lip, though I'm not always confident enough to wear it...

My January Favourites

Looking back, these are my 4 favourite photographs from January. 

Frozen pond, as it is just that much more magical with snow.

Frosty fence, because it's cold and hard. 

Chocolates, because it's chocolate. Also lovely warm colours, what remained of Xmas.

Me, in red. Total narcissist of course. But I do like this picture.

I did miss one day of photography, which was disappointing but a result of a busy day and a night out drinking. For February, I'm thinking I might do Miss Indie's 14 Days of Love Instagram Challenge, so the first two weeks will probably be instagrammed iPhone images!
