Resolutions nightmare!
Aug 20, 2009 // 8:28 AM
How annoying. Ive just spend the day trying to sort out the blog's css stylesheet, because i realised when i logged onto my blog today on my sister laptop (which had a different monitor resolution), that the blog was out of proportion. So i apologize to all who had to look at my horrible messy blog whilst i was non-the-wiser!

So i have spent 3 hours trying many different combinations of css, i even changed all my px to %, then realised this made it worse so i had to change everything back- and i had not even saved a backup file of the stylesheet to paste back in, so i spent another 30 minutes putting it back together >:(. Then after my mum told me to nip to the shop to buy some bread, i realised whilst walking to the shop that the problem is the main image (the cat) which is a background image. So all i needed to do was delete that and make a DIV header and put the image in there... *head to desk*

Now heres hoping its ruddy fixed! Please comment telling me if its not still in disaster mode :)

On another note, today my sister (Flick) told me she has her own blog all about make up and fashion, i was reading it this morning and its really good (Now no gloating Flick!). I have added her to my blogroll as Flick. She has also started making youtube videos, which i star in her lastest one :D but im not sure if she has uploaded it yet. Ill post it on the next blog for you all :D
Linkage= Flicks make up blog!

Again appologies for the bad layout and i hope its much better now!

Yay! My books finally came on July 30th comapred to August 3rd when they said they would arrive, so horah for new and early books. I read Breaking Dawn first, and finished it within 2 days- though 700 pages isnt really that long i supose... Anyway, i was really looking forward to it, and from reading the 3 previous books in the Twilight saga i was hoping it would get better than the 2nd and definetly the 3rd book. Sadly my hopes were squashed *sad face* the book was full of plot holes and too much was going on, it seemed to me like Stephanie Meyer decided to cram all her Twilight ideas into one last book.
If i was to review this novel, i would give it 1/5. I am a member of a site called Goodreads.com and i came across a funny and very true review of Breaking Dawn, though it does contain spoilers.
http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30205700.

Also i have been a bit blonde (yet again!) when i ordered the three books i didn't properly read the descriptions. So when i opened my amazon package last week, imagine my suprise when i found The city of ember but for school children, adapted from the film with pictures from the film...
So there i was slightly annoyed at myself and amazon saying "I didn't order this!" to which my sister replied "Go check your amazon order online". So i checked it, then realised i had not looked at the description of the book, but instead looked at the book cover *head to desk*.
So i had to return it, and now i cant be bothered to re-order it. But i bought another book the day after when i went shopping with my sister to meadowhall, The girl with the dragon tatoo which i have started reading yesterday, and so far its rather good. Im on page 55 at the moment and it feels like the writing style of Dan Brown. Or am i too observant?! Hehe

As you can see i have updated some bits of the blog :) I didnt really like my old twitter status thing on my sidebar, i thought it looked ugly, so i was surfing twitter yesterday and found this nifty thing. But it needs flash or something to be seen, so if you cannot see the twitter status thingy please tell me then i will change it to the HTML one :)

OMG OMG OMG! Have you been watching True Blood? Its only just came out in England, but i have been watching it online (Naughty naughty!) so im on season 2 episode 7 (i think?) i think the gay guy in the kitchen is my fave character especially in season 1, but in season 2 i feel so sorry for him. I didnt realise it was a book until yesterday when i was on goodreads and saw a topic about the Sookie Stackhouse book series.

Also only 42 days till i move into the new flat and back to uni!

Much love

Update!
Jun 30, 2009 // 8:32 AM
Woke up this morning. Decided i had nothing to do, since i went shopping yesterday with Flick (ended up with the new Glam eyes Mascara by Rimmel- Which is rubbish don't buy it!).

So i decided to make a new layout, and ta-daaaa! I hope you like it, the cat is an image of Jessie (Flicks cat) who is always asleep. Honestly right this minute she is in the hallway...asleep! We have a private joke in our house that Jessie has Narclopsy. She just flops down anywhere and sleeps, its really scary, especially at night when all is quite and dark, then suddenly "Meow!" she has launched herself upon the bed, and is sleeping right next to you, which makes it difficult to turn over.

I've added some more 'Loved ones', so go check them out :)

Has anyone joined Goodreads.com? It's a website where you can record what books you have read, currently reading or would like to read. You can also review books you have read and give them a score of 5. It has a huge selection of books on its database that you can search and find reviews, and recomendations from other users.
I am absolutely addicted to it, and have found a fair few books i would like to read. So if you enjoy reading i suggest goodreads :)

I hate having no cash :( When me and Flick went shopping yesterday, i had £200 in my account left over from student loans, and i want to keep it around £200 for a 'just in case' money runs out next year whilst at uni. My sister has a job at River Island, so she has tonnes of money stashed away, she is buying dresses from ASOS.COM whilst i can only afford a measly mascara.
There are no jobs available in Chesterfield, and i supose that a shop would not want to employ a student who will be returning to Nottingham in 3 months. So im stuck with being poor, and having so spare cash to splurge :'(

Much love
Nic

QUESTIONS:
1. How can i make money? (Apart from selling myself to science)
2. Like my new layout?
3. What was your latest splurge?

Utter Chaos!

EDIT: I have updated my layout, i made this Rihanna layouts about a month ago, forgot about it then found it yesterday :) Do you like muchly?

Those are the words my dad has used soo many times today to describe my sister and how unorganised she is. She is going to uni on Thursday, yet she seems to be saying "Oh, ill get it tomorrow" on almost anything she need. For example going shopping today with her, she needed kitchen knifes, we go into M & S, and she thinks there expensive, so says "oh ill get them tomorrow when i have more time" i was just about to make use of one of those knifes when she said that!

Also she still hasn't even packed anything, at all! Me and my mother had to tell her that she needs to sort out her clothes, so now my room looks like a bombs hit it (Our house is being redecorated, have no water, so we live in an apartment for a while until its done), theres shopping bags littered all over the floor, boxes with toiletries handing out of the sides, clothes flung over my bed, or what use to resemble a bed. Oh and that only took her 30 minutes to do, so god knows what the apartment will resemble tomorrow!

I need some freaking sanity pills ASAP!!! Or at least a big bar of choccie :)



Anyway, as i said in yesterdays post i will upload those piccies!




This is the little cutie pie, that my dad shoved in the shopping trolley, Isn't he cute?!


And this is all my uni stuff :D Please ignore the messy bedroom, as i said before its my sisters fault! Urm OK lets see what i have... That blue thing on the left is my bathroom rug, just behind it is the sheep piggy bank :D, above that it my new blanket, because i get very cold lol, my cheese grater is the next item, shortly followed by the cheapest mugs available in chesterfield! But it looks ok, and that's all i care about! And my bin you probably can't see is pink! My mum bought me that picture frame, and were getting the photo developed for it tomorrow, it will be me, flick, mother and father :) and lastly is the chopping board.

Also another crappy thing happened today! I cut all of my right hand this morning whilst washing up after brekkie, I blame my mum, all because she bought some cheap mugs. Basically i was washing this one cup, and holding onto the handle whilst washing it, it snapped off. Slashed my thumb, and shades of what ever the crappy mug was made of pricked my hand. Blood was all over my thumb, i screamed curse words, mother came in asked whats wrong and saw my hand, and offered no sympathy! Then flick laughed at me. Nice lol!
Its not that bad now, just a throbbing thumb!

Oh what an eventful day, I'm sat down now with a cuppa tea, watching the secret millionaire= bliss!
