Here, there and everywhere

Ok sooooooooooooooooooo this is the first time ive been able to get on the net for a while due to being fucked around by stupid BT in Oxford. Ive moved back down to Oxford now and things are pretty sweet so far. House is a bit damp in parts but its bareable and its not as bad as last year so im happy, also loving living with our newest housemates Jade and Laura aka Jay Jay Wench and Craney! Weve had a few messy parties to start the year off! None of this fresher bollox anymore cause we iz 3rd years init :P leave it to the first years :)

So after a week settling in im back in Telfland again lol BUT its cause I have placement tomorrow and will be returning to Uni on sunday until the following weekend when it is my BIG 21st WWOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO! Im soooooo stoked about it and all my uni chums are road tripping back with me its gonna be sooo fun :) On the downside my tutor is being a bum cause Ive only just got an email saying i needed to sign up for my dissertation last week! I had no internets last weeekkkkk grrrrrrrrrr so yeah trying to sort that out at the moment.

In other news...... christ i need to lose weight, i had a horrific wake up call today so i am getting on that. I cant let myself get any worse its not good for me! Gonna go for a walk with the mother later and were gonna rent changeling. I watched it last week and thought it was amazing. Very harrowing in some parts but deffo angelina jolie's finest acting work. 10/10 film and im sure the mother will love it too!

Till next time x x x x

VMA Madness

Sooooooooooo hey! I went to my friend Liv's house last night I took a bottle of Rose! We had a good chat and watched a film with Brad Pitt and George Clooney in it so I was happy :) haha We then proceeded to watch abit of the VMA's on MTV where we witnessed Kanye West in a completely different light.


Taylor Swift.....well I guess her music does absolutely nothing for me, she's literally a pretty face with an average voice and some catchy comercial pop songs therefore she is bound to do well. Anyways she won some award and Kanye West presented it to her. As she went on to do her acceptance speech Kanye West rudely butt in and started going off on a rant about how Beyonce should have won the award which was no doubt totally humiliating for Taylor. Im all for people having opinions but I also feel there is a time and place for them. Beyonce has had a long and successful career both with Destiny's Child and as solo artist. She has won countless awards over the years and Taylor is a fresh new artist. I guess what im trying to say is that I feel sometimes maybe other artists deserve abit of the limelight, Swift is very young id say 18/19 and this is one of her first major awards as an artist. Kanye West went out of his way to wreck that for her and now she will look back on that show and will remember what he did and probably how he embarrased her in front of thousands maybe even millions of people worldwide. Apparently since the show he has apologised to her but it's no good digging the whole and then trying to dig your way out. I had a lot of respect for him as an artist and he was produced some amazing music. I saw him live at V Festival a few years ago and he blew me away but now he is just going down and down in my estimations and no doubt alot other peoples too.


I think he needs to basically chill the fuck out, start concentrating on his own music and actions before he demolishes his well deserved career.

Hello Boulter Street...

Well would you look at that im writing another entry, welldone me! Ok so Saturday I worked an 8 hour shift 1-9 which was shitastic! Then when I finally finished Martin came to pick me and the sis up and we made a dash for home so I could quickly get changed and pack stuff for the weekend. Martin and I then hit the road and drove all the way to Oxford!

Once we arrived at around 11.30ish pm, I rang my house mate to find out where they were at and so we headed into town which by the way is only a ten minute walk from my new house which is fantastic! This was the entire purpose of the trip though, to come see my new digs and see what im going to need to bring up when I move in next week. I met some of my Uni chums, Tom, Lucy, Bethan, Saskia and was introduced to Bethan's lovely boyfriend Mark who turns out to be a P.E teacher so him and Martin had some good things to chat about seen as Mart's been doing a little bit if teaching himself recently at his new job.

Anyways we proceeded to a bar where Sask works called the Thirst Lodge had come cocktails and a bit of a boogie and headed back to the house. The new house is without a doubt better then last years, the living room is bigger and has bigger sofa's the kitchen is better as it has a nice little brekfast bar, and we actually have a WASHING MACHINE wooohoooo lol even though I HATE washing but we never had one last year. I have a double bed (Y) the walls could do with a paint to be honest but im sure ill be able to cover it up with posters and what not and make it all nice and cosy and "bekified" as I did with my room last year. The house is a great location really, 10 min walk from uni, 10 min walk into town and ten min walk into cowley. Plus all the buses stop at the top of our street so it's perfect really.

Next day we awoke and beth, sask and mark came over. We all then went out for lunch at O'Neils which is an Irish bar in town and do some good cheap food! After some nosh we had a mooch in town and popped into HMV! We had a blast on the new beatles addition rock band which is pretty amazing to be fair. The guitar is brilliant!!! After that little bit of excitement we then headed back to the house. Martin had a little snooze as he had to drive back and Laura Crane arrived with her mountains of stuff so I helped her move in :) it was lovely to see her too! Martin awoke, I said my goodbyes and we made tracks back Telford.

Martin didn't fill up on petrol and we took a wrong turning and were heading towards Worcester! So of course as we were driving along the motorway we broke down. LOL we were stuck there easily nearly two hours before my mom and dad came to the rescue with some more fuel. I really dont know what id do without my parents sometimes, they are simply the best :) to pass the time we played a couple of unsuccessful games of eye spy and the "lorry game" in which we made up lol. We filled up with fuel and made our steady way back with a stop at mcdonalds on the way which was martins repayment of making me sit in a stranded car for two hours lmao!

What made things worse was the fact we had a 20th joint birthday to head to. We were both absolutely shattered but thought the least we could do was show our faces and wish rach and tom happy birthday. So we headed to whispers bar, wellington to meet kat and tom who were already there. We were there 30 mins tops when tom bishton decided to call the party off and head to shrewsbury with some of his friends. I for one was quite shocked at this as this was a JOINT party. Rach was celebrating her birthday too and was happily dancing and enjoying herself when Tom came over ten mins before he left and closed the party to tell her that "their" party was coming to an end. I actually couldn't believe it to be honest, some people had made the effort to come (including me and martin) who had basically gone through hell to get there! And that was it he told the bar staff to close, lights came up, music stopped, and martin and I had barely even touched our drinks we had just purchased. The worst of it all was that Rach was not happy. I felt very sorry her, how embarrasing for someone to just cancel there own party what about the people who had come to celebrate rachel's birthday?? There is only one word for SELFISH. But I guess sadly that's just the way some people are.

So we said our goodbye's to rachel, tom had already left without saying goodbye....obviously. And so me kat mart and tom made our way home. So all in all it was a good weekend despite the let down of the party for rach. As my boyfriend described it Bom let the bomb off on his own party LOL cheesey joke but it lightened the mood :) Ohhhhhhhh and before I finish ive just found out ive got the work placement I wanted at the Severn Theatre in Shrewsbury!! This is for a double module in doing at University as part of my course which is Arts Management, Administration with Performing Arts so im looking forward to starting that and hopefully making contacts who could potentially help me out getting work once I have graduated :) we will see anyways.
