MUSIC: Brand New - Jesus Christ
MOOD: Optimistic
I'm happy. I really wanted to go to Leeds Festival again this year, this year would have been my 4th, but the line up was released today and it is very disappointing, doesn't really appeal to me that much. Last year i liked nearly everyone who played and was never bored, went with a good bunch of mates, a bunch of dickheads too, but that is neither something i'd like to remember or repeat thanks.
So the reason i'm happy is.. I've decided to take the plunge and go to Benicassim this year with my boyfriend, we looked into going last year but then at the last minute decided we wouldn't have enough money to do everything we wanted throughout summer. I have been looking at flights and also the line up, it is very appealing to my taste, and being in the sun with the man you love, what more could you want?! We will hopefully go a few days before the festival starts and spend a few days exploring the delights of Barcelona, a place i have wanted to go since becoming aware of Antoni Gaudi's work in Year 8 at Secondary School. I just need to get on a massive hunt for a cheap hotel/hostal, flights and travel between Barcelona and the festival itself, i think it is about 3 hours train ride away. I'm so excited for this, i'll keep updating about the trip planning, upload possible festival outfits too. :)
I promised to upload my little "When will the way be free asked the barrier" image from my brief last week. It was the top image i actually used for the final, but the bottom image was also something that i felt was quite a strong shot from the shoot. So here you go..Images Copyright Poppy Frost 2011
I'm meeting a friend and we're taking a walk down to the beach in a while. The sun sets over the sea here in Blackpool. I love sunsets and i love the seaside, so this is a perfect opportunity for an image. I went on Thursday last week and got some great shots, but only took my Canon AE-1 PRO Manual SLR camera and my Lomography Fish Eye camera. Which after i got back home and removed the films, realised they were both black and white! Nightmare. I'm still getting the films developed and i'll scan in the negatives, they might look ok, i'm just not holding my breath for anything spectacular. I got some colour shots on my BlackBerry, but anyone with one knows the quality is absolutely rubbish, so they have gone in a "note to self" album.
But just for proof purposes on how beautiful the sunset was. Here is the best shots from the rubbish phone camera.

See what i mean about the quality, the bottom image is suppose to be blurry by the way, but i like it that way.
Back to the grind now, got loads of University work to do, and also walking down to the beach and tea to make. Time is just not a thing i have a lot of at the moment, along with money. If i had spare of the both then i would go home to see my Grandma and Luke. I've been ok the past few weeks, but today i've really missed them loads and its horrible knowing it will be another month or so until i see either of them again, stupid University.
Stay safe guys.
