OMG Pink was amazing!! she fell out the sky with a blast of balloons, sang new and old sons, danced in the air on silk rope, ran in a massive hamster ball around on top of the audience, and finally flew thorough the sky singing and entertaining us.

I have lost my voice cos of all my screaming and singing along with every word.

Closed doors

2010-06-21T13:58:00.003+01:00

Stuck,

lost,

why wont doors Open,

people go in and out of them and mine stay shut,

locked tight. insane

hopeless and venerable.

waiting waiting for the time to past

every minutes lost is a minute gained, gained closer for the door to open.

with all my strength and patience

i know the door will open,

open one day

and i will have the key to open it and walk through,

step up to the challenge ahead.

The Delicious Miss Dahl

2010-05-03T21:34:00.004+01:00

“What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.

No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows.

No time to see, when woods we pass,
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass.

No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night.

No time to turn at Beauty’s glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance.

No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began.

A poor life this is if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.”

Leisure, William Henry Davies

I love this programme i am catching up on watching it on BBC/Iplayer. i have had a sneak peck at this book in waterstones and it is so well thought out and well presented. i love cook book where there are pictures so you know want you are meant to achieve.

Picture were from google images

Seagulls

2010-04-29T13:44:00.005+01:00

I hate seagulls
And I hate being sick
I hate burning my finger on the toaster
And I hate knits
I hate falling over
I hate grazing my knee
I hate picking off the scab a little bit too early
I hate getting toothache
I hate when it's a piss take
I hate all the mistakes I make
I hate rude ignorant bastards
And I hate snobbery
I hate anyone who if I was serving chips wouldn't talk to me
But..
I have a friend
With whom I like to spend
Any time I can find with
I like sleeping in your bed
I like knowing what is going on inside your head
I like taking time and I like your mind
And I like when your hand is in mine
I like getting drunk on the tunes by the beach
I like picking strawberries
I like cream teas and I like reading ghost stories
And my heart skips a beat every time that we met
It's been a while and now your smile is almost like a memory
But then you're back and I am fine 'cause you're with me and I'm in love with you
And I can't find the words to make it sound unique
But honestly you make me strong
I can't believe I've found someone this kind
I hope you'll carry on
'Cause you're so nice and I'm in love with you..

Love these lyrics, Kate Nash I hate seagulls.

Cream teas anyone?

2010-04-28T13:27:00.003+01:00

Yesterday i had a amazing day with my Nan went to see Wicked at the Victoria Apollo, London. the show was the best ever ( still love Mary Poppins best) I was lost within the story and want to join them on stage so i could sing along to Defying Gravity with them. The costume where enchanting. i was amazing by the set and the amount of layers to the stage. and how all the sets flowed and it really captured the scene really well. Defo watch it again and recommend it to anyone to see it!!!!!!!!!

Easter Monday

2010-04-05T13:18:00.003+01:00

Very windy today, but i still put Steve and Barney out as they needed to cut the lawn. Most of the flowers are from my Grandad garden but the top two phone are from mine. I planted them in October.

Really wanted to go to the rare bread centre today but as its a bank holiday i think it would of been too busy so i will go sometime soon when children are back at school.

My Nan and Grandad are coming over for tea today i boiled some eggs to have with our ham salad.

Off to Bluewater shopping centre tomorrow with Nicola and Charlotte i cant wait i love shopping or just looking as i have no money to buy anything but i love to try things on any ways.

At the moment i am trying to make a video recording of my Guinea pigs doing silly things it not working but i will post it when i figure it out how to.

2010-03-31T12:59:00.003+01:00

I have been unemployed for 3 months now, I have never been so bored in my life before i try to keep myself busy and find things to do that cost no money but it really hard. so on Monday i went out with my dad to work just to break up the week and get me out the house. i saw cows and calf's they were so cute apart from the scary cow with bulging eyes.

Bubble

2010-03-25T11:22:00.003Z

Curling my hair is a mission as my hair is so so straight i never use straighteners unless i want the bunt look. so the other day i had extra time so i tried to curl my hair and i experimented on my make up. it might be a bit to much but i don't care.

Bubble gum, Green Apple its a shame i didn't have a pick or purple colour gum. i am rubbish at blowing bubbles. I remember at school blowing such a big one it popped on my nose. my challenge i have set myself is to blow the biggest bubble i have ever had. i will post picture when i have succeeded.

Pink and Blue

2010-03-18T11:40:00.004Z

Such a random day yesterday, I text Nicola to see if she fancied a day at Hythe, as the sun was shinning, not much wind at about 12c. we had a walk along the coast, tea and a massive chocolate cake we shared it it was that big! charity shop bargains and found a adorable sweet shop.
i got some bubble gum and strawberry liquorish.

evening came fast so i brought the Guinea pigs in for a cuddle Steve easy to cuddle he falls to sleep unlike Barney who cant keep still and sits on my shoulders.

So Many cakes not enough pudding

2010-03-16T11:51:00.006Z

Mother's day. a day not spent with my mum, but with my Nan and Grandad, auntie Fay and John my Dad and Brother. ( who is behind me in top picture). I made roast lamb with all the trimmings, Fay brought her cherry crumble as i make two cakes and no hot pudding.

So these two cakes, A almond raspberry flourless cake and a strawberry jam and butter icing with pink icing on top completed with lips and false teeth.

I made goody bags for people to take cake home with them as i made way too much.

Last night me and my bestest friend Mel went to the local on only one club in my town dressed up for Mel friends Birthday. Mel went as Minnie mouse and i went a Alice in Wonderland. I did have a double at the party but mine was better as i had blondie hair. Had a lots of giggles..

Swan, River, Lake

A ripple meets the river bankThe paddling swan now passing byHe leaves his mark sparkling in the sunHis future path has not yet swum.You the sun, and I, a swan

These words a string of ripplesAs I swim on, and you shineOn my future path I must go by.

These words from movements past Or freshly now as rippled meaningsGently flow across the mindMade silver by your light.

No river for these ripples writNo cygnet for a swan begetNot any meaning in this verseExcept your shining makesAs rivers seek to merge with lakes.
