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
