Manicure

Next week I am starting placement for 6 weeks, which means short nails and no nail varnish, so I thought I would give myself a manicure.  I always like to do this when my nails have grown to a decent length.

Firstly I applied Nivea's Calcium Power in Soft Rose.  This nail varnish claims to strengthen nails and gives my nails a lovely light pink colour.  I used one coat of this.  The white colour was from a gift set someone bought me from Debenhams.  I started off by covering the natural white bit on my nail, then if my hand slips or I make a mistake I have room to make that white bit a touch thicker without looking silly.  I applied two coats of this.  After this had dried I gave it two coats of Lasting Colour by Collection 2000 as a top coat.  The clear Lasting Colour varnish claims to last 10 days so I am going to see if it lasts!

What I wore today to university:  Summer colours for a rainy day.  Yes, it was raining today and I didn't realise resulting in muddy shoes, wet clothes and frizzy hair.  Even though it is quite obvious summer is now over I am still loving this mint green colour so won't stop wearing it just yet!

At the moment I'm in my own little world of university where I don't have to wake up that early, can have naps in the middle of the day, can watch television or films in the day and do my own thing when I don't have lectures, can stay in my pyjamas all day when I don't need to go out, can go shopping in the middle of the day, have time to do my essays and work, can hang out with housemates whenever I want and can go to bed at whatever time I want.  Like I mentioned earlier I have placement next week so will soon snap out of this.  But at the moment I am quite content in my own university bubble.
