I haven't posted much because George visited late Thursday night and I never usually get online when anyone's round and considering he was here for almost 48 hours straight...
Recently I've been sort of building up my room, like the junk n stuff
well not recently, it's always, but more recently i'venoticed the "junk n stuff" bit has increased
not really i just like what my room looks like
rightnow

so i took some photo's to show and because i'm a top dick'ed i took them on some polaroid app on my phone

My bed and my ipod player thingy which doesn't even charge my ipod, fucking bummer
Some NME and The Fly cutouts which i put up above my bed earlier today, expecting them to fall down because of the heat


Some Beatles tin lid and a few stills from movies and my Haim disposable, also a cool drawing done by my friend Dominika!
Record player and my NME collection to the left, cd's to the right (worst collection you will ever experience)


A small collection of my disposables and some NME pages on the right, my lists for things to take on holiday above them
My second clothing rail and my heels and a pair of my flatforms


Books, all my DVDs (stupidly small collection) and then some random shit hanging around


Left of the bookcase, some posters from NME, a couple from Company magazine.
The black and white poster at the bottom came with my Rumours vinyl and the one above that came with my Peace album
Main wardrobe, most of my flats etc (and a wine bottle, dunno)
My two Florence posters I got from the FATM tour early 2012, vogue covers, NME  cover, and some pictures of Florence
My "desk", some random pile of broken electricals beside it and my birdcage

Unorganized wall, more like a giant pin board, personal stuff i want to be visible etc

Signed Spector times sheet from their gig October 2012
The Fly cutout of swim deep and a Maccabees setlist i got from a Black Keys gig they supported in December 2012, also my Big Weekend 2011 ticket below them
Florence Welch company cover, couple of festival wristbands, Warpaint cutout, George Harrison picture, some picture of Cavan and Zach from swim deep, my Swim Deep tickets on the right
Records and a Jaws drumstick jake gave me from their gig February this year
My thimble collection and vogue collection on the desk along with an old Starbucks cup and a copy of Gatsby and Wreck This Journal, an old broken radio and a pile of old VHS tapes on the right



My room is entirely bollocks but i like it and i rarely hang out in their but it's like a mini installation piece, i think
my friends like it anyway

basic

I realised I haven't really said much about myself and I dunno I don't really find it too important but in the past there've been loads of times where i've read blogs and the writer hasn't included info about themselves and it annoyed me loads
My name is Rachel-Helen but Rachel is cool because my mom wanted to be the quirky mom who double-barreled her daughters first name. I'm 17 and I'm stuck in this part of late-teen life where i dunno if i want to shave my hair off, grow it, dress like something one day or dress the complete opposite the next day.
I don't do anything at all with my life i don't do any extra-curricular stuff or play an instrument but i do sit on the internet most of the time and make noises like "ooh" or "aah" at pretty pictures. And cry over the perfect lives of beauty youtubers
Ignore the fact I say Mom out of habit, I am from North-West England and I don't mind it

I can't write anything very well like I am terrible at blogging but it is something that pleases me, I think some aspects of my life (not much you've seen) can be interesting and nobody really cares so what better way to show people that to force it infront of them??!!!1
LIKE THIS ONE TIME FLORENCE WELCH GOT MY BANNER THROWN AT HER ON STAGE AND SHE POSTED THIS ON TO TWITTER


took me weeks to properly get over this
Which leads me on to say i am one of the biggest Flo Welch/ Florence + The Machine fans you will ever come across, sort of, I'm one of the sane ones. if I ever met her I'd fall, merciless, to the floor, kiss her feet, kiss her face, maybe experience a couple seizures

My "style icons" who i don't base my style around, I just really like, are probs Cavan Mccarthy, Billie Porter and Florence Welch. All of which: fucking babes



It sounds incredibly generic and dumb and so "haha pay attentio0n to me I am different to everybody else I am uniQue I swear by it!2", my music taste is pretty varied. The charts is tolerable, I like beachy sounds and cute boys with long hair who wear pyjama bottoms as everyday attire. 
I swear by the life of Stevie Nicks. I would encourage anybody to try Fleetwood Mac, I live by Tango In The Night and Sara is one of the best records ever made.
For a quick idea about my music taste click on this page to my tumblr, where you can see a brief list of SOME of the bands I've seen live (A LOT of stuff is missing from there, my taste is vaster)

I'm 5 ft 10, my boyfriend is called George and my birthday is the anniversary of the end of World War One, work it out. Here are some of my faves:

My looovvverly boyfriend, George
Me and my best friend Robyn (who you can't, actually see...)
Haim, Glasgow 27th May, (dunno venue, forgot)
Robyn looking after me like a half hour before I got kicked out of some party......at half 9 at night....
Cavan, when i saw Swim Deep for the third time, February 21st, Reds Bar Newcastle
When i met The Machine!!11!!!(Chris, Rob and Tom from Florence + The Machine)

i'm up all night to get drunky

I woke up this morning realising 1) it was raining, 2) it was thundering, 3) i had a huge need to write a blogpost for you all
(whoever you all are)
(considering i still have zero followers)
(but you decide to blog my page views up)
(for which i thank you)
(but really just follow me)
because my Barry M nail polish has been on for two days and I am usually so bad at keeping my polish tidy but it hasb't even chipped
and with my job and work and stuff (b&b cleaning, yawn) it's pretty easy to chip nails etc so for that, Barry.M I thank you
So far I only own one BM polish (Blue Moon) because when i first bought it i didn't like it that much. I am guilty of applying way too much varnish when I do my nails and I got so frustrated because it was so runny. It took me a while to realize I had to apply multiple thin layers as opposed to thick ones (fucking duh).


Robyn, my best friend, actually told me to buy these and I know I'm way beind on the band wagon but whatever get used to it
basically go buy Barry M polish it will change ur life


I hope this demonstrates just how early it was and how tired i am

Also enjoy this little snippet of Florence Welch (my all time favourite singer and band FATM ever of all time, learn that fact and learn it fast, i love them/her) getting wasted on Sunday night and jumping on stage in some South London pub to sing with some South London band
It is great, I haven't seen her this publicly wasted since like 2009, all my best dreams are coming true
