Internet's back... And so am I!

As the title says, I've got my internet back and the blogs will return!!! Expect one really soon.

Fuck life...

Well firstly, I'm going to apologize for the lack of updates in this blog recently, my internet is down at the moment and can't access it at home. I'm having a very tough time recently and finding it hard to cope and go on everyday with a smile upon my face as I normally do. I've been unemployed for the past 4 months and I have spent just about everyday applying for jobs and hearing nothing back, and when I do, the interview turns out to be a heap of shite with places asking the most ridiculous of questions and games only not to get the job. What's the point in these stupid embarrassing games? It's humiliating. And don't get me started on these people who do the interviews, when the woman in front of you asking you questions such as 'what animal do you want to be?' and 'show me things in your bag and sell me them?' and going on about her obsession with Jessica Simpson, you know the world must be in danger.

If the misery and gloom of job hunting isn't enough. My best friend is moving back to Canada and I'm finding it hard to adjust to this. She hasn't left just yet but if it's this tough now, imagining how hard it'll be when she's gone is stressing me out. She is my best friend and the one I turn to when I have problems and always listened to me, shared alot of my best times this year with and even organized me a birthday party. I'm going to struggle alot with the adjustment.

Alot of other shit seems to be happening to me too lately, and I'm just waiting for the sun to break through the clouds again and offer me some enjoyment and hope, but with Winter setting in over the Irish skies, I don't know if I have much hope...

Eating habits and happy smiles

Starting to eat healthier is quite hard for me, as I for one cannot digest or swallow most fuits and vegetables, I am serious! My only intake of such foods is by pure juice or smoothie. I was always a very fusy eater and I'm only beginning to snap out from that habit now. I'm cooking dinners for myself that I'm learning from watching shows such as Rachael Ray (love her) and by experimenting with new foods such as prawns, bacon and cheeses. Even mixing different types of foods together to get different combinations for dinners is exciting me.

On a musical not (pun intended) the setlist and album cover for t.A.T.u.'s new album have been released. The album titled 'Veselye Ulybki' translated meaning 'Happy Smiles' has possibly the most hilarious and dodgy album cover I have ever witnessed. The cover is bearing a picture of a Asian astronaut smiling with the cheesiest grin I have ever seen. One look at it and I laughed myself to histerics. Though the album does contain the newly released hits 'Beliy Plaschik' (white robe) and 220, and leaked songs 'Chelovcheki' (little people) and 'Vremya Luni' (time of the moon), the album does look like their best one yet. Even with the dodgy album cover...

Moving back, moving away...

So, all is right with the Big Brother community and we have chosen Rachel Rice as our new inductee to the winner's hall of fame. A truely seserving winner, a nice, down to earth woman who was charming, cool-headed and friendly. Glad to see that a dimwit or bully didn't win this year. So the television event of the Summer has finished and departed, it leaves more time for me to do more stuff. Events, festivals and performances galore (though I never really let BB eat me up that much!).

So the exciting news is that my boyfriend is moving back down to Dublin this week, and I'm really excited at getting to see him alot more again. Twas hard at times throughout the Summer not being able to see him, but it did make us stronger as a couple. And alot of my friends are moved back up to Dublin too which is even better. But the bad news is my best mate Jerrica is moving back to Canada next month :-(. Not looking forward to that day at all.

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 11 & 12 Review

Alright, I have a feeling this will be along one...

So in Week 11 we saw the eviction of the most hated Housemate ever, with a eviction percentage of 94% against two other Housemates, Nicole. Walking out the doors to the most horendous chorus of boo's ever witnessed at an eviction, and she deserved each and evry one of them for her vile actions in the House. Week 12 gave us a twist in the nominations, with live face-to-fave nominations taking place and Lisa & Sara going up (with a twist explained later). With the closest eviction vote ever, panicing aplenty at the Big Brother compound, but Lisa was evicted to the best reception this series.

At the end of the liv face-to-face nominations, Lisa & Sara were called to the task room to play a game of jeopardy, the prisoners dilemma, ion which one of them could win £50,000. To win, they must decided whether to take it or share it. If both choose share, they win £25,000 each, if opne chose take and one chose share, the one who chose take would win £50,000, and if both chose to take, they'd both lose. However, they both decided to share and became £25,000 richer.

The highlight of the past 2 weeks, had to Mario proposing to his Girlfriend Lisa live in the House. Returning weeks after his eviction, he stood in the garden on a small podium with placards which read out a cheesy message of proposal to which she excepted. It has a joyous moment in the House, and boy don't we know they don't happen that often.

The mood was killed of during the week as Darnell & Rex ganged up on Sara and harrased her verbally slinging sexual and injust comments at her making uncomfortable viewing and causing an outrage with the public. Both recieved warnings over their behaviour, however it didn't sink in with Rex who had to be reminded once again of his actions. I seriously do not see why he hasn't been removed from the House yet, his actions have been far worse than that of Alexandria.

So with a double eviction this Tuesday, and with Mohammed and Rex most likely to go, here is who I hink will the final five and in their finishing orders...

1 - Sara
2 - Rachel
3 - Mikey
4 - Kathreya
5 - Darnell

Alanis Morissette, Marlay Park, Dublin 19/08/08

''It's meeting the man of my dreams, and then meeting his beautiful HUSBAND''


For a birthday present from my boyfriend; John, I got a ticket to go and see the Alanis Morissette & Lenny Kravitz concert. Having been talking about it for months beforehand, I couldn't wait to go to it, but I was only there for Alanis, as I neevr really knew who Lenny Kravitz was except that he was the guy who sang 'fly away'.

It's a day I will never forget in a hurry and a memory to cherish forever. There's nothing more gratifying than meeting one of your idols and getting to see Alanis Morissette perform live has to be one of the most blissful moments I have ever experienced and would do anything to see her live again. Standing in amongst the cheerful swaying crowd I stood with my boyfriends arms wrapped around, I couldn't help but sway along and sing my heart out along with Alanis and the crowd before rocking out during her more upbeat and uptempo sets.

She blended a setlist of her classic songs such as 8 Easy Steps, Hand In My Pocket, Head Over Feet and You Oughta Know with material from her new album aswell. She started of by rocking out with Uninvited, and finished off with her most recognisable songs of Ironic and Thank You. Changing one of the lines in Ironic to: it's meeting the man of my dreams, and then meeting his beautiful HUSBAND, she got a massive uproar of cheers and laughter from the crowd, stopping Alanis during the song before ending it off on a high getting everyone excited and in the mood for the finale of Thank You, and as everyone sang along, it was pretty much like the crowd thaking Alanis for such a great performace.

Rain Again...

...Let's all befriend Noah and make him build us an ark!

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 10 Review

Rachel has survived eviction and Stuart ahs been sent packing! The boring man who was only useful for staring at his ncie body is gone. He wont be missed by me at all, and I;m just extactic that my favourite, Rachel is yet again in the House for another week. Highlight of the evition:- Stuart stage driving only for the crowd to move away and let him land on the hard concrete ground!!!

This week wasn't much of a great week entertainment wise, and showed Big Brother really likes reusuing idea's from past seasons this year, with the Big Brother Olympics task reapperaring again, but this time in a dire dire manner with events such as feather throwing and a slow race. Memo to Endemol, get brains and think up some good tasks for once!

Mikey got on my nerves this week with throwing water over contestants and using that darn fucking megaphone to speak all the time. Serious, he is getting to be more extremem than Bex, and that's really saying something. And as usual on the annoyance, Rex. As much as I dislike Nicole too, Rex is nothing but a constant prick to her. Why are there sequins missing from your pink dress, Nicole? How can you not remember the exact contour of my belly-button, Nicole? Have I got anything to worry about Nicole?' For fuck sake Rex, grow some balls and grow up!

So has my Top 6 changed at all this week?

1 - Rachel
2 - Kathreya
3 - Lisa
4 - Darnell
5 - Sara
6 - Mikey

Foto Friday #5

This is 'Red Alert' and was taken right before the rain took a drastic turn and pelting down from the Heavens. Black clouds moved in overhead turning the city into darkness during the afternoon! This created such an onimous mood which was perfect for the picture. The red traffic light is llike a slight warning for the troubles to come.

ABBA: The Movie ~ The Review!

Yes this is a review on the theatrical re-release of the 1977 'epic' movie that is ABBA: The Movie, and not Mamma Mia! (which is also awesome, and well worth seeing). Re-released with the success of Mamma Mia and the new upsurge of ABBA-mania that has followed including ABBA Gold returning to number one in the charts for the fifth time since it's release 15 years ago in 1992.

The movie has avery lose plot which is centred around a radio DJ; Ashlee Wallace who is sent out to get an indept interview, almost dialouge for there ABBA special planned to air the day they leave Australia on their 1977 tour. The story is intertwined with lots of live footage from the ABBA concerts from many venues around Australia.

But things aren't too good for Ashlee as he sets of without his press-pass and finds it hard to access the band and is constantly missing them at the press talks and his constant run in with ABBA's bodyguard. The movie does offer some hilarous moments including the dream sequence of 'The Name Of The Game' and the weird editing during 'I'm A Marionette'. There are also plenty of laughs at their mad Swedish accents, crazy dance routines, Agnetha's constant ass shaking and Benny's mentally overboard keyboard playing.

As a big ABBA fan myself, this was a great to witness and to see how the band performed live was an awesome sight. Getting the chance to witness soem of their songs that were never released such as 'Get On Your Carousel' was epic for myself. Getting the chance to witness how big the band were back in their hayday was something spectacular to see with fans rushing into stadiums hours beforehand and flooding the streets outside their hotels just to try and get a glimpse at their Swedish idols and the merchandise for them... jaysus!

All in all, this is not a movie to go to see for a plot, since it really lacks one, but is more to witness the concert and see the band live and watch the documentary of their tour of Australia and is a must see for all ABBA fans.

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 9 Review

So the hot male totty of Dale has been evicted, not entirely sure why though as I found him to be more interesting and entertaining than Stuart. The only reason i can think of for his eviction is that he was part of team bitch (bex, luke, jen, dennis etc.). But with one more gone, and 4 weeks to go, the final is in sight, and I'm expecting the Housemates to be more tactful from now on. Let's hope that the games will begin!

This week's task proved that Big Brother can be entertaining without all the bitchiness and fighting as I thouroughly enjoyed watching the japanese puppetry thing (forgot it's name), it was amazing to watch and was pulled of brilliantly by them. Loved how hell just got a normal boring finger puppet show!

Now onto this weeks main event, the reuniting of Rex and Nicole,or as they're known now... Posh & Rex (clever). At first Rex didn't look too impressed to see his girlfriend enter the House, and that's exactly how he felt. Complaining in the Diary Room, that his plans have been ruined with her addition and that coping and playing in the House will be much harder now. Oh so, you're a game player now, eh? After all that accusations against Rachel hmm? Well, over the week, there's been nothing but bickering and fighting between the two, and watching the way Rex treats his 'princess' is disgusting. With the way he treated the other femailes in the House aswell, it's beginning to show that Rex just has a problem with females.

Rex calling nicole 'princess' is no exaggeration however as she proved how much of a posh spoilt brat she was by constantly moaning over her suitcase, but now that she recioeevd at the end of the week, will she be able to shed the princess tag, and will she no longer be known as just Rex's girlfriend? Since her arrival, Rex has stopped on his tyrant attacks on Rachel, who made an interesting HOH, by trying to rebel against Big Brother by 'washing dishes', which she did at her peril, and got punished, well Hell did.

With only 4 weeks to go until the final, I'm gonna start my weekly Top 6, the people I think will make it, and in their finishing order.

1 - Rachel
2 - Darnell
3 - Lisa
4 - Kathreya
5 - Stuart
6 - Sara

Summer Sunshine, My Arse!

Yay, isn't the Irish summer just brilliant? After 24hours of non-stop rain, Dublin has become a flooded city. With water rushing down the streets, puddles around 25 times larger than before, and deeper, constant rain gushing and pelting down from the skies as thunder and lightening flash and roar. Traffic on all the main roads coming to a standstill, and the River Liffey rising high, with it's toxic ridden waters close to overflowing.

Gardaí have even closed off some of the major roads due to flash floods, and in my own area, the N3 has been closed off, Blanchardstown and Mulhuddart villages are flooded as the Tolka has bursted it's banks. It took me an impressive 2 hours and 45 minutes to travel home by bus, with a half-hour waiting time before hand, making it a total of 3 hours and 15 minutes. A new record for me.

Why can't Ireland not have a normal summer for once?

Foto Friday #4

This week's Foto Friday is a 'photographical manipulation'. This originally started off as a normal generic photograph taken in the Dublin Docklands, near Spencer Dock, but I used this one for teaching myself how to do some manipulations on PSPX2, This time around I decided to change it to Black & White, increase the contrast, and then fianlly invert it, and this is the brilliant outcome. I really love this one, and hope others do to!

Message In A Bottle

About 4 or 5 weeks ago, I was in Howth, Co. Fingal with some friends and we were celebrating one of their birthdays on the beach.I thought it'd be a great idea to write a message in a bottle and send it off, so a group of us worte one and send it asail on the windy waves. We wrote it in numerous languages, just in case it ended up in Denmark, Iceland, Sweden...

Well upon opening my email today, I discovered a letter from a guy from Isle of Man, and it turned out our bottle has ended up there! It had washed up on the stony beach at the Point of Ayre in the northern most point of the Isle of Man. He discovered it while out walking with his family and felt great at discovering it. He mentioned that it was up high on the beach, so a high tide must have washed it in.

I feel great that our message was found, and the guy was extactic at finding it. It's now driving me to send some more off and see where they wash up!

The journey the bottle made!

Beadle Juice!

One of the funniest things I have seen on television in a good long while!

Parkour! Park-what now?

I had my first experience of Parkour at the weekened, all I can is, it was a lot of fun, and something I'm gonna take up. The guys I met that showed me the basics, were dead sound and very welcoming. For those of you who don't know what Parkour is, you get a bitch slap, but according to the wonderful wikipedia, parkour is ''an activity with the aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as possible, using principally the abilities of the human body.''

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 8 Review

You all must know by now, how much I hated Bex and Luke this year, so imagine my hapiness last week when Bex got the chop, I was extactic, but when Luke got eveicted this week, OMFG! I don't think words could describe how happy I was to see his whiney moaning butt get kicked out. But in fairness, I must admit, during the first few weeks, I did find Luke to be an amzing Housemate, who was great in the Diary Room, came out with the best come backs and had great amazingly timed comedy moments, if he stayed this way, I think he could've won, but he succumbed to the evil's oof the bitching of Bex, Jen, Dale etc. His interview with Davina, was one of the best of the series, only if he stayed that way instead of going downhill.

Well Luke wasn't the only Housemate to leave through the doors of the Big Brother House this week, as Maysoon (again, Maywho?) voluntarily left the show as she was home sick and missing her family, but there wont be much change there as she did nothing anyway. This week's HOH was Stuart, as all HM's competed to win the power by eating as much chilli peppers as they could, each worth different points depending on their hotness. This proved the a great task to watch, especially with Mohamed, Kathreya, Dale and Mikey.

But Stuart's reign of the House as HOH was short lived as he was stripped of his powers for breaking the rules along with numerous other HM's for discussing nominations. Dale & Luke were the original nominees, but Darnell, Kathreya, Mohamed Rachel, Rex and Stuart were put up for punishment for discussing nominations with a crappy code (Wigan = Luke, The girl from far away = Kathreya etc.) based on were each HM was from.

After failing this weeks dire task of Cops & Robber's, the basic budget was £77, which Rex bought; tea bags, milk, biscuits, coffee and 57 of the Ever Changing Prizes! Wow, wonder how the next week will pan out with that, so far this week they've been laughing over it from recieveing randomness such as prams, a full stripped pig amongst them. And prize 57 was revealed live on Friday. It was Rex's girlfriend Nicole, who is the 21st HM this series, yes she is a fully fledged HM who can win the show. He didn't look to pleased about that.

Rex is the enxt HM on my absolutely hating list, he is the most sarcastic and intimidating HM in their and is a bully. The way he treated Rachel during the week iover her VT was disgraceful. He shouldn'nt be allowed to carry on like that, to make a grown woman cry is a vile thing to do and I think it's time Big Brother stepped in and done something about it. At least Lisa had the guts to stand up and lay into him, but as usual he smirked and acted smug. But will he be acting different this week that his 'Princess' is now living with him? We'll have to find out...

Foto Friday #3

This week's Foto Friday is 'Safe?', named for obvious reasons and was taken at the Kings of Concrete festival in Dublin last Saturday (26th July), this is an amazing grafitti pop art style coloboration that caught my attention immediately as it stood proudly on the hillside. I must admit that the artwork on show ain't my own work and unfortunetly I didn't catch the artists name. The sunny weather that day helped show of the colours more vibrantly and vividly in the artwork, and thankfully it's all captured beautifully in the photo.

Stormy Summer

After the five days of sunshine and hotness, the summer storms are back. Grr. Nothing else to say yet...

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 7 Review

BEX IS GONE!!! YAY!

Thank Heaven's, the evil sly cow that never stopped moaning, bitching, and showing us her minging tits has been evicted from the Big Brother House, I am so relieved that this vile character is gone. Next we have to rid of her ''so-called-in-house-boyfriend'' Luke, though is it just me, or does anyone else think ''closet gay'', when thet see or hear Luke?

Since the week had the best ending ever, was the rest of the week just as good?

Well, the week's task of ''Clocks'' wasn't the most interesting to watch, in fact was quite boring to watch, with a human clock, keping sand flowing, which took forever anyway to flow, putting a clock together (they did it in 5 minutes) and turning off alarms whenever they went on in a room of 200+ clocks! But they did pass the task. And the HOH task of Bex, Dale and Maysoon (Maywho, you say?), dressing as monkeys and hanging from rope swimgs was quite the bore fest too, with moany Bex quitting after 3 minutes, while the rest competeed for 8 hours. Dale won, after Maysoon dropped down to stop Darnell breaking a ''fundemental'' rule of not eating the Monkeys' banana's.

The one Housemate who is doing my head in now is Rex, he is a brat of a man. Rex like's to concider himself higher than anyone else in the House, constantly talks of wealthy upbringing, and his restuaurant. He loves to interrupt everyone in mid-conversation, taunt them and even insult them, just to get a laugh from it, another vile character. And Luke... His every conversation is about how everyone else in the House is/are ''backstabbing'', ''fakes'', ''gameplaying'' and ''getting airtime'', quite frankly, Luke it's you who does all of the above, as it's you who cares the most about winning that £100,000.

What will happen in the week coming now Bex is gone, will we finally get a ''Happy House''?

Foto Friday #2

This is my second Foto Friday, and in the spotlight this is week is 'Look Up Panda', which is from a series of 3 photographs featuring, well... stuffed toy panda's! This panda, 'Emopanda' is posing as I hold him in front of the camera, whilst taking the shot with the other hand in front of Cunningham Dorm in Trinity Halls, Dublin 6.

Hair & Interview

Well, check out my new shorter hair, first time in years, that I cut my fringe off completely, it feels weird without it. Went to my interview thingy with my recruitment agent, jobs pretty damn good, great pay, health packages, bonus' etc. The flaw, 10 hour shifts, either 7am-4pm or 2pm-11pm. Don't mind working long days, but concidering my bus stop is located a good distance from the office, timing will be hard. Eek!

Oh and the game is Warhammer, which one I don't know.

Job Interview!!!

Yay! Finally, after over a month of searching, I finally managed to get a job interview! I'm meeting my first recuitment agent tomorrow to go over it, and getmore details into it. But it's for a customer support agent for online games, world of warcraft me thinks! Not sure if it is, but she did ask me if I play it, know of it and such. But I'm happy, and bouncing around, literally, and I'll let know how it goes tomorrow!

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 6 Review

Well, only in the House a week and she made a big impact in the wrong way, after suffering the voice of the voiceless singing too much and snoring her brains out at night, the Housemates had enough and nominated Belinda Belinda Belinda, and the public had enough too, and sent her on a one way trip to Eviction-ville.

The week got off to a great start, with the series twist beginning, and a the perfect time too. Withj Darnell, Dale and Luke up for the election to become Head Of House (HOH), Darnell one with a landslide 8 votes out off 11, and his first duty with the power... To send 7 people to HELL! The House has been transformed into Heaven and Hell with a divide down the middle (very ala to BB3's Rich-Poor Divide)

But what a twist it was back then, and is creating even more tension and drama than the last time. Bex constantly jealous of everything great in Heaven, from parties, to drink, to luxury and more. But trust Big Brother himself to make it worse by making Hell slave away at the tasks and by giving all the rewards to Heaven for nothing! Agian cue more moans and tantrums from Bex (annoying much?) More fun and less bitchiness in the House at the beginning of the week, but is coincidence, that at this very time Luke was sick and being very quiet and no opening his annoying high pitched voice of a mouth and bitching as usual?

The task was quite fun to watch, well on the Heaven side as they enbraced the Frenchness and had fun with it and joking about creating drama shows and rollplaying. Howevere mroe moaning and groaning from Luke and Bex during their 'tour de france' part of the task, which resulted in everyone moaning. Enough of that, all you need to know is that they failed.

To all reading...
VOTE BEX OR LUKE OUT AS SOON AS THEY'RE NOMIONATED!!!

Foto Friday #1

This is called Looking Out To Sea, and was taken 2 weeks ago, when I visited Howth with my good friend Jerrica. Just rambling around the Harbour and Marine, we came across the sectioned off part along the harbour walls, and had a great view out to Ireland's Eye (the island), and was a great photo opturtunity, especially before the dark grey clouds came in! The weather was was perfect, and the light from the sun, iluminated the sea a gorgeous turquoise. I edited this picture slightly in PaintShopPro X2 to add a depth of field to it. Other than that, it remains the same. Enjoy!

Chill Out Woman!

Someone need's to take a chill pill, and take a look at the bigger picture. Try to look at things from different persepctives and you might not only just realise why things have changed, but you might learn a thing or two, or three...

Big Brother 9 ~ Week 5 Review

Week 5 in the Big Brother House ended with Mario being evicted with 77% of the public vote, but what else happened that week...

The addition of 3 new Housemates at the beginning of the week not only brought in some fresh air, but also set more paranoia of in the Housemates minds. First in was Sara, a hot flirtatious aussie shiela with a resemblance of Angelina Jolie, second in was full-time dark and gorgeous model Maysoon and last but not least, the all singing and craziness of Belinda ,Belinda, Belinda (why does she incist on saying her name three times!!!)

Belinda Belinda Belinda's snoring was the main topic of the bicthing in the House, as the snorasaurus kept most of the Luxury Bedroom awake for most part of the week, resulting in Kathreya and Rachael moving to BBlock 9. Rebbeca was constantly being woken up by the loud snores and kept screaming at Belinda Belinda Belinda to shut up, which resulting in her waking everyone else up. In the end it was decided that Belinda Belinda Belinda will share both bedrooms and alternate between them each night.

The Irish Dancing task made me smile when it was first announced, I thought this would be an entertaining task with a good few laughs and even the Housemates would enjoy it, but, no they didn't even put enough practise into and resulted in a performance a bunch of monkeys could do better. Banging drums repeatly out of rhytm and sync and kicking your legs up in the air in random patterns doesn't constitute as a great performance, as Mario and Mikey thaught. It was that bad that the producers and ajudicator lost count of the mistakes they made. Oh dear...

And who could have seen this coming, Luke and Rebbeca? Is it for real. Canoodling under the covers late at night snogging and fondling. We have to keep an eye on this one, thank God she wasn't evicted so we'll have something to watch this week. And with one Housemate going to be elected the first ever Head of House, and having full control of the house including, deciding which Housemates will live in Heaven or Hell as the House divide makes a new and refreshed return after 6 years.

You give me 10,000 day's of rain...

Yay, Irish summer at it's best, rain rain rain, at least let's hope we'll have our usual sunny autumn in August and September. The rain is doing my nut in, can't do anything in it, grr. Went to the Urban Beach (they constructed a floating beach in one of the liffey's inlets in the dock) amazing, however, it rained and the sand, chairs and loungers were soaked. Have to make it on a sunny day. It's a fabulous idea and hope it returns again soon.

Recently I decided to take a zero tolerance approach to life, as in I'm not going to hold myself back anymore, I'm going to make sure when I've something to say, I will and I wont be afraid to push the boundries when it has to. Honesty is the best policy they say, but the truth does come at a price. So far, so good and it's working, but it's still early days but I do feel it's working for me.

Piercings! Love them as you know, and I want a new one badly, but I'm strapped for cash, but where should I get my next one???
A. Horizontal Eyebrow
B. Double ring on left ear (my left)
C. High-up ring on ear

Jobhunting is shite

Jobhunting sucks donkeys ass. You send out CV's around to different companies, and none get back, isn't woderful? Down to my last €50 before I'm pushed to beg off mommy and dawddy like a lil scruffy haired D4, with the exception that I'm not a D4. But hopfeully, somethign will turn up soon, *prays for once*

What to do with my spare time, is something I've been pondering lately whilst watching trash TV, so I'm gonna get out and do some active things, running about and whatnot, and I'm gonna join a photography group to further my skills. Speaking of that, I have upped some new stuff to my DeviantArt, with some here on my Bebo. I have my first experience of journalism at the moment writing a travel article on Copenhagen for the GCN youth edition, so it's gotta be top notch stuff there.
