Hey so it's been a while since I wrote, so let's cover a bunch of bases, tell you some stories, and give you lots of pictures because I know you all love them.
I've had a great, sad, and mixed up summer, and I'd like you all to let me know in the comments what yours have been like. Fun stuff, heartbreak, all of it, I wanna know, so whatever you wanna tell me!
So without further ado, let us begin.
Just after I last wrote, I shaved half my head off! No shit, for serious, check it.
Shortly after that, I went to Download Festival, which I've done 4 times in a row, now. It's a great festival, plenty of rock and metal music, and SG Ballroom Blitz even performed, although I couldn't get far enough towards the front to take any good pictures. However, here are the pictures I did take (and others took but I'm a right-click-save-as person).
I discovered that due to having really sensitive skin, which I kind of always knew, doctor recommends that I don't shave my legs ever again. So I'm having to get used to waxing, and the waiting for waxing, which involves being a werewolf. Currently I'm booked in for one on Thursday, and will be getting my eyebrows done and head shaved, too, ready for doing a couple of shoots on Saturday, followed by Blackheart Burlesque and Ballroom Blitz, which I'm proper excited for. It's in Camden I'm hoping I see some of you there!
After Download, my set, shot by @r_girardi got bought, so I'd like to thank all of you very deeply for your support and love on that set.
At the beginning of July, I moved house. It was bittersweet, saying goodbye to the old place. I lived in a really bad area, people got stabbed in my car park, there were multiple nightly fights on the street, my car window got broken, see below, but the flat itself was really nice and we had good memories there. Now, however, I live in a much nicer area, with @reaghan we have a three bedroom house with a garden which is great for the animals. Here's a few shots of me, the house, and us, before and after the move!

As some of you know, I'm currently undergoing Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, which I've been doing now for close to a year. It's a very intensive therapy course that lasts over two years, two sessions a week. It came in particularly handy in August, as my dog, Ginger, got sick. Anyone who knows anything about me knows how important my dog is to me. She is a therapy dog and has been with me through some really freaky, scary, and amazing shit over the last six years. I really had to utilise my DBT skills in order to get through the ordeal. Firstly, I was told she just had a bad tummy. I got meds for her, she took them, and she got better. Then she got worse. I took her in to the vet again and saw a different vet, who said that she may have ingested something, so he took her away to keep her overnight and give her x-rays. He didn't let me say goodbye and I went to pieces that night. They couldn't find anything in her x-rays so they gave her back with a different course of medication. She took them, and she got better. Then she got worse. I took her in to the vet again and saw a different vet, who said that she either had a parasite, or a liver or gall bladder infection. I was given yet another course of medication for her, which were antibiotics. She finally got better, and stayed that way. That was over the course of three weeks in August, and really took my summer completely away from me. Thankfully my DBT skills really helped me through. For that reason, here's about a million pictures of my favourite thing in the world.
And, because I don't want her to feel left out, her slightly antisocial sister, Chuck.
As the stress from that finally fizzled away, I got to use my birthday present and go to Harry Potter Studio Tours! It's an absolutely incredible experience and I would advise everyone to go, if they can. Here's some shots I got while I was there.
I attempted to donate blood. Unfortunately I was a little dehydrated so it didn't work too well and they had to stop halfway through. However I will be trying again in November and I would be urging anyone eligible to do the same. A friend of mine has cancer and has had cancer for years, now, and everyone everywhere is in desperate need of your donations, be it blood, stem cels, bone marrow, I know you're all good people so I definitely urge you to give what you have to those who don't. ♥
After Harry Potter it was @reaghan birthday, so here's a couple of fun shots from that.
That day, I made a cake, and Ginger killed a rat. Unfortunately the rat did a fair amount of damage to Ginger before she ended its existence, and it was all right in the middle of me trying to make a cake.
Now to lighten the mood even further, here's some stuff that I've found funny over the last few months!
Here's a few other bits before I move onto the stuff I know you guys have been waiting to see, ie my beautiful face and the beautiful faces of ladies deserving of Front Page! I'm afraid you have to sift through my life to get to the good stuff *nudge nudge wink wink*
Now for the good stuff!!!!!!!!!!
I'll start with girls who could use some well deserved love on their sets from the last few months!
And, what you've all been waiting for, as promised, here's what's coming and what I've been up to!
I worked on some stuff for elite and for collab with @laughingorc which is awesome stuff, keep your eyes on eliteonlinemag for more!
I had this set come out, which is still in Member Review, shot by the incredibly talented @gemmaedwardsuk
In three weeks I have this beauty coming out, was shot by @coolicio who is a megababe and so much fun to shoot with!
And, in four months, you'll see the impromptu set I shot with @davebuxton last year! It's super cute.
And that concludes today's blogpost, thank you all for reading, and if you've actually read or viewed the whole thing, congratulations for being the most patient people on the site. Love to all.
