Two men waiting at the Pearly Gates strike up a conversation. "How'd you die?" the first man asks the second. "I froze to death," says the second. "That's awful," says the first man. "How does it feel to freeze to death?" "It's very uncomfortable at first", says the second man. "You get the shakes, and you get pains in all your fingers and toes. But eventually, it's a very calm way to go. You get numb and you kind of drift off, as if you're sleeping. How about you, how did you die?" "I...

I've always been small for my age. I still am a short arse. I guess that would make me an easy target for people to 'pick' on me for example. I had a few things working for me while I was at school though, I had a mouth that more than made up for what I was lacking in height. I had a good sense of humor, so I was able to laugh my way out of difficult situations, and I had big sisters. Plus I'm a pretty nice lass, so people generally liked me. I wasn't overly popular, but I was no where ...

I remember growing up there was a childrens show on TV called Byker Grove. It was set in Newcastle and about a group of kids who attended a youth club. I must have been about eight at the time this show was on. It was on in the evenings at 5pm. So kids were generally just settling down from a hard day at school. I really liked this show, because it was a little naughty. It was maybe a bit more adult than I was ready for but I liked it. My Mum saw a few episodes of it, and the outcome I ...

They should really have a section in the blogging category for random waffle, because I would probably be the Queen of it, hehe. I don't really have anything to blog about today, not one particular subject, so I guess in theory I shouldn't be blogging. I do have things to say, sort of. They just aren't on any particular important subjects they are just random thoughts on blogging I guess. You see a few things amaze me about blogging, ok amaze might be a little strong, but you'll see what ...

I was watching a film before, and someone asked the question, "What's the most amazing thing you have ever heard?" Hmmm, that was a tough one, and I've still not got a worthy response, however I did find a pretty amazing picture..... This isn't a special effect, it's real, for more info check this out Link . It will explain it alot better than I ever could!

First impressions are very important. We judge so much from what we see of a person at the begginning, and them impressions are generally hard to shift. You see we trust ourselves, we have to really. Who else do we really have to rely on? We are with ourselves all the time, we have to trust our own judgement. We have to decide who to trust, who not to. To be fair these things aren't built up on first impressions but they are the basis, they are what starts are thoughts off on this perso...

Even though I put this in the humor section it is a true story, it just makes me giggle! My friend was at uni, and as part of her course, she went over to Aussie for six months, to study. She was put in a house with a guy she didn't know very well, but they got to know each other and it was all very sweet. He was from Norway, nice guy from what I can remember. Anyway, soon after moving in the house she came out in this huge rash. Her face was swollen, her eyes were, and she was covered...

I think JU is a great place. I think it's full of great inspirational people, who share thoughts, opinions their lives with us, and that is totally amazing. The points system is something I still don't completely understand, but I'm happy not knowing. I have found out that typically it rewards those that blog the most, more than the actual quality. Now don't get me wrong that doesn't mean the most popular blogs are crap, because that's not true, people wouldn't read them if they were. I'...

A sense of humor is very important to me, for someone to make me laugh is amazing. I don't consider myself to be a funny writer though, I don't really consider myself to be a funny person, but I can make certain people laugh, and then other people just find me totally unamusing. I can understand that, I don't really appreciate 'stupid' humor or comedians for that matter. I prefer observational humor, something you can actually relate to, not something that is forced, and then you're expect...

bang v. Banging can be used in the UK to refer to the beautiful act of procreation. A gentleman who is particularly impressed with his lady-friend's abilities in the beautiful act of procreation may use a phrase like "she bangs like a barn door". bender n. 1. A big drinking session. 2. Be careful, because this word is also a rather derogatory term for a homosexual. I believe it derives from the phrase "gender-bender", though a contributor points out to me that it could equally easily r...

I love that song.....where do you go to my lovely....how romantic. I was introduced to this song by an ex boyfriend. Ahh yes them dreaded ex creatures. He was a thinker like me. I liked that about him. You could see the thoughts ticking over in his head. We were both very young, sixteen I think. He was my first love (not really love, but as close as you ge to it at 16). He wasn't much of a talker, but he was a romantic. My love for talking distressed him at times. Words were useless...

Well, Dyl kindly pointed out I hadn't done a diary type blog in a while, so....here it is. I can't promise it will be to exciting but call it a minor catch up. I've been in a huge state of confusion about my future recently. i know now is the time to make some decisions, and as other area of my life aren't all rosey, it seems now is a good time to change things. So my teaching degree is no more *looks scared*. I haven't been brave enough to tell my parents yet but I'm sure I'll find the ...
