My Day - Episode Twenty Nine

Today has been a reasonably interesting day. This morning was Philosophy, which I found reasonably bearable would you believe. Then it was Psychology and me and Darling One had a heart to heart about some of things that had been worrying us and whatnot. We also spoke to some teachers and people about random relationships they've had. One got dumped even when holidays and flat was all on the go! Bless. Another had a creepy stalkerish girlfriend who was like super possessive.
Then third saw English Language which we basically just chilled in, I thought vaguely about my coursework. Fourth was a free. Again, nobody turned up so I walked around like a douche having only been told Cheshire would be absent. Then I gave up, went in and settled to read some Psych, got a new book out and now I'm reading 1984 and The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nighttime. Both good books.
Then it was Bio in which we had no teacher. Everyone is fascinated by this human centipede idea at the minute, yes it's disgusting - why the hell do you KEEP youtubing it then?! Seriously, the people who find it weird but still look at the sick ones. The people who go "Get that off" have some normalcy in their lives.

So then I got home, Mother had a bad day but she was off out to watch the footy. Had some rather delicio new potatoes, bacon and egg made by moi. Twas yummers. Then we all headed out and me and the Sis were dropped off to look after some adorable kids. Little and Littler. Little is a chatterbox and for some reason thought me and Sis were a couple and kept asking why we were both girls, which was funny. I read him a dinosaur story, warmed him some milk and tucked him in bed. Lovely. Littler was conked out already. XD

So now we are just chillaxing downstairs with the footy on - 0- at the minute and no major signs of changing. Although kudos to the fans, actually managing to sing and chant right over those vuvuzelas or whatever they are. Noisy bees.
Ciaoo!

Alice in Wonderland

I'm really obsessed with this. Like within one day I'll think about Alice in Wonderland probably like three times. I love the idea of having your own personal world to retreat to with crazy creatures and stories and everything being insane but making total sense.

I love the book. I have special edition books and also a pop-up one and a jigsaw one which is awesome. I want my own personal Cheshire cat. My favourite character by the way. In both films and the books. Oh and I want to dress and look like Alice. The old Alice. She was so young and naive but totally stuck out like a sore thumb in the real world.

I swear I enter my own haven on a daily basis. It's alot whiter than this world I know that. In my dreams nothing is grey, it's white or bright or black. No grey or beige. Why would anyone want a half-way undecided colour? Make your mind up, are you black or white? Are you orange or pink? Are you blue or purple? Of course there are such colours as Blurple and Orink.

I should sleep, I have to get up before I even close my eyes.

Re: Books

I myself am an avid reader and always have been. When I was a kid I loved reading about monty the dog who wore glasses, (Met the author, got it signed!), and then I moved on to Harry Potter and then Series of Unfortunate Events, Roman Mysteries, Inkheart and of course most of Jaqueline Wilson's work.
Now, being a little older my tastes have changed and these are a few of my favourite books and authors.

Torey Hayden/ Jodi Picoult
Both of these authors write similarly and My Sister's Keeper is really similar to most of Torey Hayden's books. She writes about childen with issues, sometimes psychological. There are some real cute stories of kids who change completely from being locked in silence to opening up and experiencing the world. Tug on your heart strings kind of stuff.

The Thorn Birds
This book is beauty itself. The story starts when Meggie, living in the rolling hills of Ireland is three years old. With many brothers and a rather emotionless mother, her live is pretty average. However her rich aunt living in Australia gets lonely and invites her and the family to come and live on a massive peice of land called Drogheda. On arrival, the aunt's good friend, Ralph de Bricassart greets them. The book is over Meggies whole life and part of her childrens. Growing up you see her changing through many points of view. Her own, her fathers, the priests. It's written from different points of view. Pure gorgeousness. Such a classic.

Mandasue Heller
OH MY GOD I love this woman. She writes great thrillers that you won't catch on to until that last page where you go OH MY GOD! And sometimes you have to read them twice to really understand all those little hints. My mum says she can figure them out but I can't and I love them. I've read, the club, forget me not, tainted lives (Best) and the front. Awesome.

The Wish House
This book is actually a little young for me and a bit too short for my liking. It was another one you can totally see the subtle changes throughout the book. It's about Richard who has a very boring life but an avid imagination. He goes on holiday caravaning and there is a nice forest and one house which seems to whisper "wish" in the wind. He finds out a family have moved there and becomes very involved in their lives and see what's behind their exotic exterior is alot darker than first thought. Also it's a cute love story.

Can't be bothered thinking about other books, but those are really really really good. Read em!

The past week

WELL!

Where do I begin? I last spoke to you on the fifteenth - mum's birthday. Came back from my dads, handing my computer Charlie over reluctantly. Then monday was boring... tuesday I was meant to go swimming with H.P but she cancelled again, family stuff. And then wednesday I watched true blood, I can't stop myself! It's so addictive, although that episode wasn't as exciting as others I have to say. Thursday was my birthday, and my boyfs b'day. I gave him a ukelele for his b'day, he wanted one and I'm an awesome person so there. I got a book called Pleasure : An Almanac For the Heart by Nikki Gemmel. She wrote a very frisky book called The Bride Stripped Bare that I basically fell in love with. Now that she's not anonymous, she's just awesome.... Anyways, pleasure is basically a guide to life, advice on all the parts of a womans life, completely uncensored. I'm in love.
Continuing, boyf also got me tickets to go see the new Twilight movie: New Moon. So much better than I thought it was going to be. Topless men galore. Embarassing moment: My phone has an alarm that goes off at ten O'clock to tell me to take my pill and it won't stop going off until you press a button to shut it up. You guesses it, even though my phone was off, it switched itself back on to play this screaming alarm in the middle of the movie. I was sooo embaressed, boyf had to help me out of my fluster. To make it worse, it was then on and my friend texted me!! The horror.

That was Friday night, and then I went home, got some well liked sleep. Woke up, had chinese noodles for breakfast - best meal ever. Then went over to boyf's house. We played on Fable, which I am addicted to. <3 Then he had a party thang round his house with peeps. There was around 9 people there, and our two beloved friends A.G and H.S finally made out after seven months of waiting. They both went home, separately before you guys start making up rumours. :o le gaspo. Anyways, they went home and seven people stayed. Out of those seven, FOUR threw up. The worst was flirty friend T.S who was sick all over the bedroom and our poor victim of a friend P.D. Poor guy.
To end it all we slept downstairs on the couch and left the sick people upstairs.
Still was an awesome night though.

My crush has now ended and an old flame has been fed, as it was never out, just put on low.
