Uni has reached the point in semester where I pretty much can't spend my time doing much else for the next two weeks. Six assignments in two weeks? What a breeze! I'd like to just fast forward through time to later this month so I don't have to experience the assignment turmoil! The internet is an easy distraction especially when I have to do a lot of online research so I'm giving myself a two week blog break. After the assignment-fest I've got a couple of free weeks before I head home to Newcastle for a fortnight of well-deserved holiday to see my friends and family. I'm determined to get out of the next two weeks unscathed, with no time extensions and no last-minute hand ins. See you on the other side!

Psssst... If you'd like to contribute a list for me to put up on my blog while I'm in assignment hibernation feel free to email me: bianca [at] goodnightlittlespoon.com. A list of favourite things, a list of things to do, a list of craft projects, a list of lists - anything that pleases you :)

Remember way back in September when I posted my photos from Rhianne's It's a Photoswap? Well, I sent my roll of film off to Michelle and she sent me hers. After a bit of a long-winded fiasco with the company that my workplace gets to develop film going bankrupt, then them losing my the roll of film for several months, I finally got it back and had it developed. It was rather exciting to look at these lovely images taken by somebody I've never met in places I've never been. Here are a couple of my favourites from the set - all credit to Michelle Kuek.

+ I'm obsessed with pies at the moment. I want to make sweet potato & buttermilk, blackberry icecream pie and lattice topped peach.
+ When I finally get around to learning how to crochet, these gorgeous coasters will be high on my list.
+ Katyha made this very pretty and very wise graphic.
+ I saw this months ago, but felt like reposting it - it's Nothing But Bonfires' 60 Years of Memories letters for her father's birthday. So lovely.
+ If you've been living inside a (wi-fi free) cave and haven't seen the lovely Photoshop tutorials and downloadables Pugly Pixel has been doing lately, do so! She just released her Blog Bling Kit Pt 2.
+ Another oldie but a goodie - Oh Joy's Postcard Birthday Poster.

These are some photos from my latest roll of film from my Diana Mini. I had some problems with the film jamming part way through the roll, so there were probably only about thirty shots on the roll (for a roll of film that usually takes more than double that) and most of them were very blurry. Nothing compares to my first ever roll in my Diana. Even still, there were a couple of shots I really liked. The photos are from as far back as last July when I went home to Newcastle and also a bunch of shots from a trip to the tulip farm.

I've found a new place to send film off to called Extrafilm - it's much cheaper than in any shops around here (um, $25 a roll? Nu-uh). For any Australians - I really recommend them. They sent me a bunch of free stuff and coupons for my next order.









The last shot is probably my favourite.
