Girl Crush.

First fell in love with her in Forgetting Sarah Marshall (which is a really good film by the way. If you havn't seen it I urge you to, it's really funny and Jason Segal and Russell Brand are both really good in it. AND Paul Rudd who is good in pretty much everything :) ). She's also in Black Swan but I'm not allowed to watch that yet because a certain someone wants to watch it too. So am currently just having a perve at her. Enjoy.

CopyCat.

Stolen off Kate AGAIN. (Soz Kate, I will blog on my own soon)..seeing if I can get back into blogging seeing as I'm going to be unemployed in 3 weeks (quit the dry cleaners, hopefully going to college next year to do a childcare course, gonna try and learn to drive in the space inbetween, fingers crossed :) )

ANYWAYS. Read a lot of stuff about me because I actually really enjoy talking about myself :)

1. The person you like and why you like them.
Fozdog init. Cause he's tall and has crazy hair in the mornings and nice hips and he's nice :)
 
2. A famous person you've been compared to.
Naboo.
 
 I think it's the nose..

3. Five things that irritate you about the opposite sex.
Ermm...I kinda wanna say lazyness but I can't really speak when it comes to that :/ Probs that they can pee standing up and we can't..it's unfair.
 
4. The best thing to happen to you this week.
I quit my job :)

5. Weird things you do when you're alone.
Have little raves in the living room. When I used to walk home from a late shift at Spoons I liked singing out loud because there was no one around and I could :)
 
6. How you'd spend £10,000.
Learn to drive, buy a car, go on holiday. go to Reading, buy a summer wardrobe.
This is actually what I'm planning to do with the £10,000 (which over the last year has sadly dwindled to £8,500) that my Grandad left me :)

7. Things you like/don't like about the way you look.
If I get the right angle/when I first get up in the morning I like my hips. Would like sliightly bigger boobs and for everything else to be sliiiightly more toned. And maybe slightly more regular sized feet.
 
8. Your last night out in detail.
 It snowed and I drank souhern comfort and lemonades at my house then walked to Spoons in my wellies with Hannah and Lauren and I thought Foster wouldn't be able to come but then he managed to get a taxi and I saw loads of people that had been at uni and we went to Kuba and on the way we met Meg who made me go back to Spoons and then we wnet to Kuba and then appazza Bliss and we left Bliss at like 1 and I complained to Foster that he didn't take me to megabites all the way home. Oh and I fell off my bed and hit my head on my bedside table. But I blank after the first shot at Kuba.
 
9. Something that makes you sad when you think about it.
Family members dying. (touch wood) But it's not something I regularly think about :)
 
10. One thing you've lied about.
Errr..I don't know, I havn't lied for ages. Truth is the way forward :)
 
11. Would you rather be stranded on a desert island with someone you love for ten years or someone you hate for a month?
Well what kind of desert island? Is there food? What do I have with me? Tools? A builder? Are there clever monkeys that will accept us as one of them and build as shelter? I need details to answer such a question.
 
12. Something you're currently worrying about.
Whether college will accept me or not.
 
13. Name one celebrity you'd throw off a cliff, one you'd marry and one you'd shag.
Throw off a cliff - Westwood
Marry - Jake Gyllenhaal
Shag - Robert Pattinson

14. A habit you wish you didn't have.
Biting my lips

15. Lyrics that apply to your current situation/mood.
Yeah, I'm just gonna go scour all the lyrics of all the songs to find some that fit me right now.
 
16. A drunken story.
I don't know I forget stuff a lot..

17. Something you regret.
One or two slaggy moments..
 
18. To do list.
- Make a sammich for tomorrow
- Shower
- Maybs have a hot chocolate
- Sleep
19. Post a picture of yourself without your make-up or hair done.
 
                            Reading and Kavos were the only times I havn't even done my fringe :)

 
20. Your best sexual experience.
Well I'm sure you don't want details but it's deffo been in the last 6 months :)
 
21. Press ctrl and v.
It just put Kate's survey answers up here..which I'm sure you've already read :)
22. Post a bit of your last IM conversation.
"ok :):) whatcha doing schweeeethaaaarrrtttttt? :):)"
23. 5 things you want to change.
This whole "work all the time" system the world has going on.
The season.
Foster's christmas present.
My mum's christmas present.
The current holiday situation. In that I woiuld like it to be booked and organised instead of what it is now, which is just a load of pages in a brochure with the corner folded over.

24. 5 turn-ons and 5 turn-offs.
Turn Ons
Good height.
Good hair.
Good taste in music.
Good sense of humour.
Good clothes.

Turn Offs
Smells bad.
Short.
Hairy.
Have nothing in common.
Long nails.
ICK.

25. Someone you'd like to be for a day and why.
Katy Perry. Or Russell Brand. Either would do :)

26. Five things within touching distance right now.
Laptop, phone, laptop charger, bed, pjs.

27. Name and shame - someone on Facebook who makes you cringe.
OBVIOUSLY not gonna say a name because I'm slightly two faced but there's a few couples that need to be stopped.

28. An embarassing/socially awkward situation you've found yourself in.
Errrmmm...well I've never booked a holiday before, the other day I went into Thomas Cook and sat down and the woman got up, got some brochures and gave them to me. And I had to hurridly get up and leave/run away :)

29. Something you're not proud of.
I'm not proud of a lot of things, the trick is to try not to regret too much :)
30. The last argument you had.
With my mumma. About quitting dry cleaners. It wasn't really an argument. She bascially said I should keep working and I said no :)

Need Some Therapy.

SUP. Been a while. But I need to have a vent about life.

Turns out full time work is DULL. Drag self out of bed at half 7, go to work, bag some clothes, deal with customers, ask someone else how to deal with them because I have no idea, bag some more clothes, go home, go to bed at like 10 because I'm knackered. Next day, repeat. Next day, repeat. Next day, repeat.

EURGH.

I do miss monging about and not having to be anywhere and being free to do anything any day of the week..but I don't think I'd mind having to be at work 9 hours a day if it was something I cared about. But I just don't care if the jacket is on the hanger straight or if the shirt is completely crease free. Or if this customer doesn't like the cuffs folded up or if this customer prefers the hangers tied together with string instead of sellotape.
I DON'T CARE.

Thing is I'm not sure what I do care about...considered working in a nursery but you need qualifications and cba to go to college, especially as the rents are itching to move abroad and so need me to have a job so I can move out...I like music, I like films, I like books...I have no discernible talents or special skills. I did alright at school but have no common sense to speak of. Which basically means my CV looks alright but actually I'm pretty incompetent. And apparently I get bored easily.

I've never really known what I wanted to do with life. I think I considered being a vet when I was like 7 but I think everybody did at that age, mainly due to Animal Hospital and Vets In Practice (quality programmes). But I was always told that it didn't matter because I had ages to decide. And then I had to pick options for GCSE. Again, it didn't matter, I was told to just pick what I enjoyed. And then I had to pick A Levels. These meant a bit more and should have been specific to a career choice. But alas I, like many others, still had no idea so again just chose subjects I enjoyed (or at least thought I'd enjoy, psychology being something of a let down, have to say). And then I decided against uni and now I'm stuck. I'm not sure whether uni would have been a better choice or would have just delayed this stuck-ness by 3 years. Probs the latter as there were a few people with degrees who had ended up working in Spoons. I would have probs been one of those people.

SO BASICALLY. If anyone has any knowledge of a career/job that's fun, has a decent pay, doesn't require any special qualifications past a few random A Levels and is in walking distance from my house hit me up. Ta :)

(They're Kid Cudi lyrics so it's cool and not cheesy ok? Just so we're clear :) )

Kate Made Me.

I'm becoming a rubbish blogger. Can't keep up now I've got Twitter as well :/ Will try harder..but for now..this :)

Why did you create your blog?
Because I was bored. And I wanted to put pretty pictures up and talk about music and stuff :)

What kind of blogs do you follow?
The ones I mainly read are ones fom people I know because I'm a bit nosey like that :) And I like photography ones too..

Favourite make up brand?
The only make up I wear is mascara when I go out and the only mascara I've found that doesn't just clump my lashes is Avon. And when I used to wear eyeliner I got Avon so I'll go Avon :)

Favourite clothing brand?
Topshop and Zara usually have stuff I like..Miss Selfridge are good for fancy dresses, not that I have an excuse or money to buy fancy dresses :(

Your indespensable make up product?
I could actually survive without mascara, I just like to make an effort I'm going out or it's a special occasion or whatevs :)

Your favourite colour?
Blue or purple or yellow.

Your favourite film?
All depends on my mood. I go through phases with films, I used to have a POTC obsession, then I watched Moulin Rouge a lot, Fight Club had a obsessional period, as did 500 Days Of Summer...in December it's Christmas films, Love Actually, The Grinch and Elf being faves :)

What country would you like to visit and why?
ALL OF THEM. Just to say I have.
Actually, when I say all of them, I'm not too fussed about African countries or India etc..so really I mean A LOT of them :)

Write the last question and answer it yourself.

Why are you leaving Spoons after a month?
Because I hate it and it angers me and I never see anyone because the hours are WANK aaand I think I've got enough money saved to keep me going until I can find another job.
Just don't tell my mum.


And now...pretty pictures from we heart it....YAAAAY.

Found a similar picture in Kerrang magazine a while ago..had it stuck on my wall since..gotta love Blink :)

Always had a bit of a thing for ripped tights..if I used to get a ladder in my tights when I was younger, before I took them off I would always rip them up more..just for the lolz :)

Our Breathing Has Got Too Loud.

I couldn't decide whether I wanted to blog about clothes or music or films so instead I'm just gonna post some pictures from we heart it :)












Oh and look at this dress from Miss Selfridge I would buy if I had somewhere to wear it. Oh and a lot of money. I would also have to have her necklace and shoes.

Sugar And Spice.

Had a bit of a girly past few days..mainly down to the music..(most of the artists of which I have slight girl crushes on..those not included here include Pixie Lott, Ke$ha, Katy Perry..)listened to Cheryl Cole's album (not the new one as that is only available for "spotify premium"..EURGH) and actually some of the songs were pretty catchy..for example this one...


Also finding this song pretty catchy..even though now I've had it pointed out to me it DOES rip Red Hot Chili Peppers' Under The Bridge just a tad..



Also rediscovered this one on the walk home yesterday..



I particularly like the line "might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me" as there are a number of clothes I would steal from the boy if he would let me..I've already managed to nab a hoodie he shrunk in the tumble dryer, a Mr Potato head t shirt and an over sized Tottenham Pavlyuchenko shirt :) I would happily steal this sweater but I also like him in it so it's a pickle..

Talking of clothes I have been perusing the internet sites ready for when I get paid (if I EVER get paid that is..) Zara let me down but found some nice things on Topshop..


 This one would be in compromise for not being allowed the boy's.

Just because I can get in miserable moods quite a bit and this could help me snap out of it :)

That was it really..found some boots on Asos but they're ever so slightly too expensive and, as always, are not in my size :( So seeing as shopping has let me down, I think I'll just stick with the musical girly side :)

Lazy Blogging.

Feeling uninspired. So theived this off Kate.

When was the last time you went to a funeral?
I never have. The only one I've ever had a chance to go to was my Grandad's when I was 11 but I didn't want to go. (That was nothing against him btw, I just didn't fancy a funeral)

Do you like flowers?
They're alright. I like it in the summer when my mum gets nice bright ones. I'm not an overly floral person though.

When you last drank alcohol, how much did you drink?
Er, it must've been on Friday..so a Kopperberg..2/3 glasses of rose...at least 2 VKs but it all gets rather hazy then :/

And did you get drunk because of it?
Yep. Thankfully to my bank account it doesn't take much :)

Who are you listening to right now?
Cold War Kids. Still got my pod on shuffle from the walk home from work, CWK are usually a band that doesn't get skipped through.

What perfume do you wear?
I don't. I've always liked the idea of having a "signiture scent" but most perfumes have this weird smell that gets to the back of my throat. They're also expensive and MAJOR cba to find one I like. So it's Charlie Pink body spray for me :D

Would you like to have a black bedroom?
Black bedrooms remind me of Tracy Beaker (I think she had one in The Dare Game or summink?) To be honest my bedroom walls are covered with stuff anyway so the colour of the walls doesn't really matter. I wouldn't mind a whole wall of blackboard though..something to doodle on :)

Do you still own any VHS tapes?
YES. We still have all our videos from childhood (although The Parent Trap seems to have gone walkabout :( )..luckily my TV, although about 12 inches wide, is one of those TV/VHS player combi things so I get to watch fuzzy videos whenever the urge hits me :)

Have you ever fallen in love with a best friend?
No. Done.

Does your house have a fireplace?
No. But dw, Santa can still get in using his magic key :)

Is there anything you want to do but are afraid to?
Nope. There are things I want to do (drive, travel) but I'm not currently doing them due to money/lack of organisational skills :)

When was the last time you got a haircut?
September? I'm not very good at getting my haircut..it takes about a month of me telling people I need a haircut before I actually get round to booking one.

When was the last time you yawned?
I don't know, it's not really something I keep a record of.

Have you ever thought you would never get over someone?
Probs. But I'm over them now so it's all good :)

Do you prefer My Chemical Romance or Fall Out Boy?
I love them both but I think due to the solid year of fanaticism when I was 15/16 I'm going to have to say FOB :D

Have you had eight glasses of water today? 
No but I've had quite a bit though, I drunk a lot at work and I always carry a bottle of water round with me (I am not a happy person when dehydrated.)

Do you have any nerdy hobbies?
I would like to say reading but I havn't read in aaaages mainly because I havn't had a good book. But I do really like reading. I also like learning (that sounds weird right? But I like understanding stuff..even if it is football) if that counts as a "hobby". And I used to really enjoy writing philosophy essays. I liked arguing a point and then finding a counter argument and then finding a counter counter arguemnt...again not really a HOBBY but probs a bit nerdy :/

Say something nice about someone you don't care for:
EERRRRM...so many people to choose from...ok.....some of your clothes are nice.

Would you rather work for a long time without doing much work or for a shorter time but be rushed off your feet?
First one. I hate it when everyone working in a place gets stressed and then I get stressed and then I muck something up and everyone hates me......working busy nights at Spoons will be AWESOME.

What was the last thing to perplex you?
I don't know. Things people do perplex me, things I do perplex me, other things perplex me when they don't work...blogger perplexed me when it published this post without me telling it to..it's a perplexing life :)

Would you like a holiday right about now?
YES. Girly Kavos-esque holiday, cultured Europe holiday, travel cliche Australia holiday..TAKE ME AWAY.
:)

Lots of Harry Potter around lately (Kate's nerdiness and that quiz on facey-b (which is a CON. I am not Gryffindor. I wanted Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw)) so here's some HP themes pics.

 I think this is amazing and if you don't, I don't know what's wrong with you.

This owl picture has always amused me when I watch the film.

LOLOLOL. I do like Twilight but it's just so easy to take the piss out of :)

I keep looking at that middle pic and chuckling.
Ok, soz, I'm actually done now :)
