My poor neglected blog... awesomeness is on it's way!

Well maybe not blog wise, but these next couple of weeks should be fun fuilled for me at least!

First things first, multimedia assesments are finished! Which means little to whoever is reading this but it basicaly means I am no longer working 14-16 hour days with very little breaks. Infact, i have booked 18 days off work starting in 2 day's, 11 of which will be payed, and I finaly got the pay rise I have been wanting for a while, although that probibily won't come into reality for a while yet...

Which means no more assesment work till at least October, which is a shame really, I do enjoy them, but don't tell the student's that ;)

So tomorow the fun starts! Tonight I have to finish the show (Bomber's Moon, it's really good!), do the get out, then go home and have a masive packing sesion so i have everything ready for all the upcoming events, which is going to totaly suck cause i HATE packing! Then tomorow, i get up, set some stuff up at work, leave the guy's to it and get on a train because....

I am going to see Lady gaga!



This was a bit last minuite, my sister had two tickets to see her at the O2 arena and someone dropped out so she offered the other ticket to me, i can't wait, i bet she will be amazing live, I have been to the 02 arena twice before, once to go to the fanclub member's only Metallica show with my friend Samantha, and last time was with my older sister to go to the Michael Jackson tribute, if there's one thing you will learn about me from reading this blog it's that my music taste makes no sence

The next day I am getting a stupidly early train to my home town because it's my boyfriend's birthday, and we wil just be chiling out. I don't really know if my boy would want me to put a picture of him on the net so instead....

Happy birthday baby!

Last week was my mum's birthday but as I was working and didn't get to see her so the next day will mostly consist of me hanging out with my mummy <3



Me and Mum at the P!nk gig last year

On friday I am off to London again, this time me and the boy are stopping at my sister's for the weekend for the Bizarre ball

A friend of a friend won tickets and couldn't go so now me and the boy are attending in their place, the theme is carnival, but as it was last minuite i couldn't think of anything to go as, so I figured to hell with it and instead I am going as my blog's name sake, I am going as an industrial Alice :). This is what i have bought to wear so far (i just pray to got it all comes before I set off for London next week!)



These shoes wern't the cheapest but I don't mind because I know I will wear them alot


A latex Alice mask, a bit random but i kind of love it!



My Alice style corset, think this look's Alicey enough?


This is the one thing i'm most unsure of, latex blue skirt, i purposly got it to my hip size and not my waist size as I am worryed about the fit, I don't have the smallest bottom half, so i'm just hoping this works out ok!



And these are the cyberlox I am getting, the guy who is making them is going to stick some yellow in there too to make them a little more Alice like at no extra cost along with a clip in white fringe.

That is pritty much all of it, along with some Alice socks i already have and other bit's and bobs, oh and these awsome Cheshire Cat cyber goggles I already have which i love!

I just hope it all comes together and people can actualy tell who i'm ment to be. Then when i'm back from that it's strait to Download festival! This will be my 5th year in a row of going and I love it, although these day's i think it has more to do with meeting up with old freinds then Download itself


Then the day after I am back from that I go back to London once more to stay at my sister's before going with her and her Texan friend to Paris for a day as both me and him have never been before, I am not sure what this will consist of yet, then back to Lincoln to work the Art's Festival, then back to my home town once more to look after my little sister for a week as my parents are away

and so concludes my next month!

Love ya's all!

Welcome to my world




Welcome,

Hi, so here are the basics, I’m 21, living in Lincoln, and working in the theatre industry, trying make myself a decent career, and no I don’t want to be an actress and you defiantly won’t see me on Eastenders! Backstage is my forte!

My name isn’t actually Alice, I just have a minor *ahem* obsession with Alice in Wonderland, and I love industrial music, so that explains the name.

I’m in a long distance relationship, we’ve been together just short of 3 years. He’s from my hometown so I try and get back as often as I can afford, I am aware that without the internet our relationship probably wouldn’t exist, websites like MSN keep us in contact everyday and I’m grateful for that!

(Just as a warning by the way I’m dyslexic, so if bad spelling and grammar get on your nerves then I apologise in advance, I am going to write this in Microsoft Word first so hopefully that should iron out a few errors!)

I will end this with a short summery of my day! It was my day off so I slept for far too long and generally just felt lazy for most of the day! Eventually I forced myself up and into town; I went to Debenhams to look at this:

Which I’ve decided I must own! It’s the new Urban Decay book of eye shadows. All the shadow’s match the colours in the new Tim Burtan Alice film colours and they’ve been renamed to go along with the film, for instance jabberwocky,White Rabbit etc. It also comes with a “drink me” bottle which is filled with eye primer and a couple of eyeliners. It was first brought to my attention by Jenny who has an awesome blog here: http://primupnorth.blogspot.com several months ago but I thought it would only be brought out in the US. However while my boyfriend was down the other day we went to Debenhams to look for a benefit counter and there it was! Also the same day my friend Amy had bought it, who also has an awesome blog and reviewed it here: http://seventysevenbroadway.blogspot.com/2010/02/what-is-use-of-book-without-pictures-or.html. So after much trawling on the internet looking at reviews (it wasn’t cheap so I didn’t want to waste my money) I’ve decided I need to own this! I don’t usually wear makeup but I have started to try so this would be a great start, and I didn’t find one bad review! I will have to wait till pay day at the least though so I checked they had plenty in stock and they did!

I also found a DKNY perfume there, I don’t know the name, it was one of the apple ones but it was a pink limited edition one, so as my Ed Hardy perfume is running low I may just own that soon too!

Then I bought myself a perfume bottle, which my boyfriend gave me the money for when he came down at the weekend. I’ve always wanted a proper perfume bottle with a pump spray. It’s similar to this style:

Only with a different design. It has cute metal flowers round the top, i love it! (thank you mr boyfriend)

Then I went to the 4Front household to drop off some stage management stuff and catch up with the company developments, then home and a bath with a jingle spells bath bomb, the last from my Christmas box, which turned my bath a beautiful purple and filled it with little silver stars, was awesome J

And to end I want to wish a very happy birthday to Miss Samantha Ashurst. I have known her since I was born pretty much and she is awesome, always giddy and always makes me laugh, we can talk at each other at a hundred miles an hour and still understand each other. I miss her allot and can’t come back for her birthday, Nor her birthday night out as I’m working late, so happy birthday Sammy and have a great week! (she has a blog here http://sammiestwistedmetal.blogspot.com)

My boyfriend has already commented on how I usually write too much on these things, so I better shut up now

Sweet dreams
