There is a really annoying advert doing the rounds here in sunny 'ol England at the moment. It's for Kellogs Frosties. It has a jingle that is so annoying that you can't help but sing it. It only takes seeing the advert once, and you are hooked trust me. They are going to taste greeeeeeeeeeat! Here's the link for you brave souls that are into self abuse Link . I have to say I find this kid, and the advert extremely annoying. I was at my sisters the othe...
You come across alot of things on the internet that you are unsure to believe or not. If it sounds good, I tend to believe it, if not, I don't. Who needs facts, huh? I came across an article today that told of a man called Darren Sherman who met a woman called Joanne through J-Date which is match.com for Jews. These two meet through this site, Darren asks Joanne out on a date, and they go and eat at a restaurant. Sounds good so far, right? Darren pays, though Joanne offers to half the check. At...
My next door neighbour is a strange little man. He has never actually done anything to me, he is just strange. Sometimes he acknowledges my excistence and then other days he looks right through me. It just really depends on which way the wind is blowing. Sometimes he talks, sometimes he doesn't, sometimes he stares, sometimes he doesn't. He is just strange. He doesn't know me, and I don't know him. There are people who I see everyday, and I don't have a clue about any part of their life. I don'...
I watched a TV show last night, that was all about the school days. I am one of these sad people who really misses school, and I do look back fondly at my school days. Obviously I didn't realise at the time just how much I would miss them! This show had celebrities on it, talking about their favourite teachers, and their memories of school, and it was quite a nice little programme. One thing they did with each celeb was show a picture of them as a school child, and they w...
I woke up today in a much better mood, and the sun was shining, so I decided to go for a nice leisurely walk in the park. Good idea, right? Years ago, when I was much younger, I could waste away hours in the park. For the life of me I can't actually remember what I was doing, but at that age time flew by without me taking that much notice of it. I took my walk in the late afternoon when the kids were just getting out of school, so there was quite a mixture of people about the place. Some playin...
This just really amused me, and I had to share. I'll just give you the short version of this story, and then you can look at the link. A guy sold a broken laptop on ebay. The person who bought the laptop managed to fix it, and in the process managed to get hold of alot of personal pictures and information that this guy had on it. He then set up a webpage all about it..... Link
I'm talentless. This isn't me looking for a pity vote, or feeling sorry for myself. This my friends is a harsh reality. There is nothing I shine at. There is nothing I have a natural ability in. That I can see myself doing, and I know that I'm good at it. I'm decidedly average at most things, and really bad at a few. You would think that there was at least one thing I was good at, or one thing that I showed natural ability in, but there really isn't. I do consider myself to be average...
I'm not a girly girl. I'm not to fussed if more than one hair is out of place. I don't burst into flames if someone sees me without make-up on. My world doesn' come crumbling to a horrible end if my outfit doesn't exactly match. All these things just don't bother me. I like to look nice, and I like to feel good, I just don't put a great importance on these things. I have friends who spend hours in the mirror making themselves look good by caking make-up on, and doing their hair. To be ...
I'm a chick. Well I was last time I checked. As a chick, I realise that women bitch about other women ALOT. Not all women do it, but a fair few that I know bitch, and moan about other women, and I don't understand why they do it. Men are equally as guilty of this behaviour, I have listened to some men bitch, and they put us women to shame, they have it down to a fine art. I'm not talking about men though, because it is the women doing it that really bothers me. I come from a family ...
I sometimes wonder how my sisters and I turned out so well adjusted (well two out of three isn't bad). My Dad is a lovely man. I completely adore him. However, some of his views leave me wanting to bang my head against a brickwall, and any attempt made on my part to discuss these views with him, usually leave me feeling like I have banged my head against a brickwall. Since I was at school, I have read books, and learned alot of things. This means I have really strong and opinions on th...
When I was eighteen I worked in a shop whilst I was at college. I worked there for about two years, and quite enjoyed it. I'm the kind of person that lacks motivation, I need a good kick up the backside to get started on something, but once I do, I like to do well at it. I don't like to fail, and I try my very best not to. Now this was a reasonably small shop, and I was given more responsibilty than I probably should of being given at eighteen. One day the Manager organised job intervie...
I am a typical Brit. My heart is always with the underdog. I can't even really explain why. I like it that you can expect the unexpected from people. That someone works so hard for something, they pour their heart and soul into it, and they get there in the end. I have so much respect for that. I believe that have people put their mind to something, no matter how far out of their reach it is they can achieve it. Hard work and dedication can get you a long way. I am only young, and I h...
I don't like Barbie dolls. Mainly due to a rather traumatic experience as a child. My sister is what's known as "sadistic". I admit that as a child I was quite annoying. I was a bit moany (not alot changes). I had alot of Barbie dolls. I didn't have a Ken. I really wanted a Ken. So badly. I wanted to make him and Barbie smooch, and make them hold hands, and dance around the room together. It was rather magical in my mind. So I asked my Mum for a Ken. I asked my Dad for a Ken. I ...
When you are a sports fan, you get passionate about your team. You follow your team. You cheer when they win. You cry when they lose. That's the way it goes. My chosen sport, football (soccer) is the working class game. Men go on a weekend to watch their team. They have worked hard all week, and any frustration, annoyance, they can get rid of whilst they cheer for their team, and inject all their passion in the game. Of course that was before the game became about money, now they are...
I was watching a tv show a few days ago, and there was a couple on it, that were claiming that social services had wrongly taken their children from them. Now I don't know if in their case that's right or wrong, but I'm sure that it must happen in some cases where these things happen, and people are accused of things, and they aren't correct. I've seen people get accused of child abuse, or of having indecent pictures of children, or whatever, and they are cleared of all charges. Yet that s...
