tonight the headphones will deliver you the words that i can't say

hefty muthas 

today is a bad day. one of my headphones broke. i know it sounds dramatic but that is maybe the worst thing that could ever happen to any human anywhere ever. if both break, it's done, your fate is sealed, you just buy a new pair or listen to the world. if one breaks, you spend hours fiddling with the wires, eventually holding them in place as you walk around so you can listen to stooshe through both ears. but no, one broke. and instead of logically returning to my pink pair (god no) i went out and splurged on new ones.

i've never owned a pair of "big" heaphones. i always opt for the in ear ones - they drown out the noise of other humans and, more often than not, are really good. cheap too, compared to "beats" and the like. but today i had a bit of a "#yolo" moment and saw that some JVC (they're reputable, right?) headphones were reduced to £12 which is less than i pay for tiny ones. so i bought them.

but i bet you're wondering "what the fuck is that like?"

not the best, i won't lie. maybe i should've shelled out big bucks for some overpaid popstar's version because these JVC ones really don't sound that much better than anything i've used before. they're huge but comfy, don't get me wrong. the box said something about them being "great for bass" which sounded good but it's nothing spectacular. as we know, my hair is far too big a problem for my day to day life and the main reason i've never invested in "good big" headphones is because they squash your head and hair. i know they're adjustable, they're just very cumbersome on your noggin. think they'll be a stay at home set. 4/10 :(

keep everything crossed for me PLEASE 

!!!... "what the fuck have you bought?" 

talking about hair, today is the start of a new chapter. a chapter where i start to address my hair loss properly rather than just blaming the world and my genetics (rip geoff, you were a wonderful bald man). asda have recently started stocking regaine, which i have heard plenty of good things about and it seems to be the leading brand in high street hair treatment for men, and today it was half price. it's normally upwards of £28 for 1 month's supply but this beauty was £12.50 today. swallowing my pride, i snapped it up (hiding it under my huge headphones and laddish blu-rays) and ran to the self check-out. i guess time will tell what the fuck this is like. wish me luck.

you can blame my grouchy but hazy pay day mood for these purchases. they're completely inessential but equally exciting and, undoubtedly, underwhelming. it was really rainy so i didn't brave the local charity shop today which my mood hates me for but my future debt thanks me for. i'm seeing alice tonight and we always end up buying awful things so maybe we'll go out for cake ingredients and come home with a stereo system and a bouncy castle.

i can't even

OH GOD i also bought this turtle sharpener/rubber set (which 100% said "bck 2 skwl" on it but this 23 year old was not deterred) i mean just look at them all! you can even put your newly sharpened pencils in the mummy's shell. i class this as the best use of one english pound sterling all day. sometimes it all gets a bit much for me.
