I have always depended on the kindness of strangers...

Hey!
Today has been productive. I am one step closer to getting my dissertation sorted out and I once again believe in the kindness of other human beings. I (stupidly) left my USB stick in the computer labs, not even noticing that the thing which holds all of my work this year wasn't with me. My phone rang this afternoon and a random guy had found my stick, looked at my CV which was on it and phoned me, how amazing is that? I'd have been in so much trouble if I'd lost that! However, if facebook tells me that one more person "is no longer listed as single." I may scream! Is it just the time of year? Anyway, my new boots came today and I think I am in love!
The boots!
Close up of my pretty thrifted cardigan;
Did everyone see Gossip Girl? Oh. My. God. Chuck's sequin suit? Beta-Chuck and beta-Blair gettin' it on...Vanessa wearing something in a colour that didn't scar my retinas (even if it was see-through!).

Your very lucky to get you USB stick back! I left mine in the library one time and someone took it. Obviously I'm a idiot and did back up what was on it and I had to rewrite my essay in two days. Bad times.
Love the boots, where did you get them?

Those boots are amazing!

Yay for the sweet guy who gave your USB stick back. I always write my cell number in my books on the off-chance that if I leave them in the lecture theater someone will call and give them back - so it's nice to know that actually happens!

I love your boots! Where are they from? And may I say wow, at the fact that someone had the initiative to call you and return your usb! That has never happened to me. When I loose something i have to face the fact that it has gone forever.
