Avengers + Update + [REVIEW] Zoya Maisie

Happy Thursday! I finally saw the Avengers last week after attempting to see it twice before! The theatre kept having issues so finally the second time they issued me a readmission, I went to a different theatre and finally got to see it all the way through. Third time's the charm! I was never a fan of comics when I was younger, aside from reading a few issues of the XMen, but I love super hero movies. The Avengers was awesome and of course there's an amazing cast! I agree with what everyone is saying. Robert Downey Jr. isn't playing Tony Stark, Tony Stark is playing Robert Downey Jr.! He's so like Tony Stark; it's great. And Tony is my favourite so.... Everyone was amazing though. Especially Tom Hiddleston and Jeremy Renner. When I got home I spent the rest of last week watching some of the other Marvel movies: Thor, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Fantastic Four, Fantastic Four 2, and Captain America, then flailing in excitement at the end when Agent Coulson would show up to each hero.

I'm starting to run out of things to do! I've been looking for a job (to no avail) and I've been home for three weeks. My stepdad is starting to get impatient that I'm home all day, and he asks every night at dinner, "Have you found a job yet?". Nobody is hiring now! It's off season. So i've been spending my time spiking and studding and sewing bows.

The case appeared on my Etsy and was there for only a day before it sold! It was so exciting. I haven't gotten feedback from my customer yet, though it's been confirmed delivered so I hope he liked it!

I also have plans to sew a red velvet circle skirt and a red velvet dress. Inspired by my need for a red velvet dress after seeing a similar dress on Metallic Paws.

I've also recently bought two new pairs of circle lenses. A pair of Princess Mimi Apple Greens and a Sesame Gray to replace the ones I had to retire last month, so be on the lookout for a review of the apple greens!

And that's an update on my boring, no fun life! Review under the cut~

Cases Cases and More Cases!

I might have gotten a little carried away when buying cases for my phone. After all, I can't use them all at the same time! I just saw them, and I needed to have them. It's certainly added a lot to my collection, and it was so nice to come home every other day and there'd be a package in the mail box!

On the left are the new cases I've bought, and the right are the cases I've had!

The only thing I don't like about some of them is they don't cover up far enough. The English Pound one and the Silver and Black Pyramid case both don't cover up a little further to protect the bumper. Though I suppose it is doing it's job, I mean the bumper is there to protect the screen! I have other cases though, that cover up a little further, so the bumper is protected. I still love them so so much!

And today has just been a good day all around! My favourite band Blue Gillespie released their second album, VII R.O.M. on the 4th and I've just received mine! I preordered it last month and I'm so glad it's finally gotten here. I actually haven't taken the shirt off all day. I'm so so happy that it's here!

It's got a great, interesting concept, and if you like progressive metal, think about giving them a try! Also, officially the coolest design ever!

Where have I been?

February is almost over!  So much for blogging weekly.  I've missed so much that my feed doesn't even go back to show all the entries I missed!  I'll work on that! Ha.  I'm happy to say that I've met a few of my resolutions already, but of course I'm not stopping here! I want to meet them all! 

I can't believe it's already the middle of the semester.  I've already had a midterm, and I'm having more within the next week and a half!  Where has the time gone?  My life has been school, sleep, school, sleep.  So not much has been going on.

Saw this design on a graphic floating around tumblr, and I wanted it.  Went out and bought a case and made it. 

It's silver and black sharpie and I'm going to cover it with some sort of finish so it doesn't rub off!

My roommate pulled me out of the apartment yesterday.  I've been doing nothing but studying, and she talked me into skipping the library and going to the mall.  Quite a disappointing shopping day if I'm honest.

Not only was the woman at Urban rude (that's a rant that i've already had in multiple places), but there was almost nothing that I wanted anywhere.  Urban did have a floral print oversized sweater on sale and vintage rose print tights that I wanted, but I was put off the sale by how I was treated in the store.  So not cool.

All was not lost though!  i did buy some things.  Aviator and Wayfarer style sunglasses from H&M and a gorgeous blush pink linen shirt from Zara.

I went to Megacon with my friend last weekend.  My first ever convention, and it was crazy!  Good cosplays, bad cosplays, media guests and booths!  And of course, so much Doctor Who!  There was a Tardis and a Dalek!

The Dalek actually had space for a man to sit inside and control it!  The coolest thing I've ever seen.  I got my picture taken in front of the Tardis.  So gooooood.

Bought a poster, too! Because Daleks are win!

Two media guests I was dying to see!

Tom Felton and Joseph Morgan!

I got my photo taken with them both!  I wanted an autograph, too, but I couldn't afford the photo and the autograph.  The disappointments of being a jobless uni student. :[ 

They're both so sweet.  Joseph was a bit shy, to be honest! It was the best day ever.
