Between Two Lungs

My friend Hannah popped around to visit today, and I really liked her outfit PLUS we were kind of matching, so I convinced her into taking these dorky photos with me. But did you notice - she is wearing an amazing anatomical lungs locket (from Peggy Skemp)! Do you guys remember me blogging fanatically about anatomical jewellery back in this post? I think I might have to borrow it off her...

I'm wearing a a brand new pinafore from AX Paris, which I just got in the mail this morning (fastest shipping EVER, it was sent 6 days ago and may I remind you that I live in Australia??) - and it's so very pretty. Not only is it a pinafore but it is paisley printed - I want to do a proper photo shoot with it very soon!

A really quick science fact about lungs tonight (because I want to go to bed) - it seems intuitive that when your body forces you to take a breath in, it's all about oxygen. If you don't have enough oxygen, you breathe, right? However, what actually has the most influence over the action of your lungs is the levels of carbon dioxide in your blood, rather than oxygen levels. A waste-product of cellular respiration, carbon dioxide needs to be removed from your blood, and so that's what your lungs are most concerned with doing - because if too much carbon dioxide builds up in your blood, your blood turns acidic.
Hope you're all having/had a great day,

  9. I love how you match! And oh.my.god, the lung locket! I wish it would just appear in my jewellery box since it so terribly above budget! But gosh, we'd be a lovely couple, me and that locket. Sigh... But yay, a science fact I knew! I feel so clever =^.^=
