The christmas tree is down. Hurray!
I hate christmas, next year i want to try and get away – It was hardly a christmas this year,i only had 1 day off (christmas day) you can’t fully enjoy the festive season when your working through it!

Thank god i have new years off!

I didn’t go out on Chrismas Eve, but we went out on the Eve of Eve instead – to a special Stonelove with snow!

(Simon, Mel, Seany)

I’ve come to the conclusion that we do love to molest the photographer guy at Digital and The Other Rooms.

today i came back from hexham – spent the night (a great night) their last night – i also FINALLY bought Mels christmas present. hopefully she’ll like it;

(I hope i got the right size)

On Sunday night i spent some precious drinking time with Lauren, we normally buy wine but we decided to Taboo it – which we regret now – such a waste of money we bought a bottle each – drank it and still sober! :O

We ordered a takeaway (cheeseburger and cheesy chips nom) and we got 2 free scarf’s

(probably only cost 10p)

Monday it was Mel’s Uncles 50th, so i tagged along – it was a good night actually, after the party we went back to Mels.

(took some pictures)

(perved facebook)

and then we chilled with pina colada’s watching Russel Brand

oh my cat was also quite depressed on Christmas day – look he looks all sad :’(

(we forgot to buy him catnip!)

have a happy new year!

what was 2009 for me…

I have to use my Noggin for this and try to put a year into a post.. or at least the main parts…

January – I was still living in North shields my new years was shit, my birthday was on the 3rd, went out, but that was equally shit too. However I did go to see The Pussy Cat Dolls at the Arena.. They were shit see crap photo below (i got dragged there :-/)

I hate the pussy cat dolls.

from january to June im not too sure what happened, I know that i did see quite a few guys during this period, none whom i miss, they were mainly just for the fun.
I did have blondish hair in march however as ive found this webcam photo;

In June I moved back to my Mam’s for a couple of months, it was strange I a different person i was so much better, i think the place i lived before was hell destroying,

I also kept winning GREAT amounts of dosh on the lottery! I won £300 twice and i won £2,450 on the national lottery;

I think that was saturday 4th July, can’t quite remember, even worse is i have nothing much to show for what i bought with my winnings… maybe clothes and crap
Actually i did start a camera obsession, i bought my first Lomo, a Fish eye;

here are some photo’s took with the fish eye;

I moved In with my dad in July also, when I bought another lomo cam which is the action sampler, im not greatly fond of it to be honest;

and here are some photo’s taken with it;

As you can see it’s quite grainy… not good in my books.
I’ve also bought a Lomo Diana Mini, and a film SLR camera too.

I took up drawing/pastelling;

I also started to make my bedroom more homely this is the only picture of my room, since my digital camera has broken I can’t take a pic of it now… :’(

(just ignore the face and look behind -
its got so much more now, this pic was took in the summer)

I also tried my hand at scrapping;

I had a boyfriend this year.. but it didn’t last long – I’m not ready for a relationship and im probably not good boyfriend material anyways,

here’s a couple of storeys that happened this year;

“I had just bought a pair of cool new shoes they were awesome, obviously because they’re new and lush I go out to Whitley Bay and Flaunt them. I had one of the best night’s ever, until the very end… I’m incredibly monged and I went for a piss around the back of the pizza joints and various dodgy takeaways down the bay. It’s pitch black but I manage to see a doorway so i decide to go in and take a piss there, before i even got my ding-dong out I was on the floor, my leg went through something, and a horrid, fowl, amazingly disgusting smell surrounds me. and crawl out get up and go round the street where my friends are waiting. I was Covered up to my knees in shit, I had only fell down a sewer… akkk the smell. I had to leave my new shoes in Whitley and my socks and roll my pants up and try to get a taxi to my nana’s (where i was living for 2 weeks at the time) the taxi stopped to drop my friend off but i ad to get out the taxi and be sick, the two of us standing in the middle of the street barfing our guts up, to add to this the smell, and also it was pissing so heavy i was drenched, thankfully my nana lived 15 minutes away so i had to run down to hers barefoot in the soaking rain still smelling like china’s sewage system. I woke my nana up at 4am, crying and shouting im stinking help! she was up (bless her) from 4 washing my clothes twice and then washing the washing machine out akkk not good at all! – still gutted about those trainers like!)

and this next story aint too good or funny;

“walking home from work i got jumped on by these lads drinking, akk i didn’t get hurt but my fucking mobile phone was missing when i ran away from them, they did have it as they answered when we rang the mobile, so since then about 2 month ago i have been stuck with a cheap £10 mobile phone which is incredibly hard to hear people on”

well im getting a new phone tomorrow so thats brilliant also I’ll be able to record more things as it has a camera!

sheesh this post took a while, if you want to know whats happened in the later part of 2009 please read previous posts

bye!

Paradise Circus

Guess what…. I Found massive attacks new song – which i was banging on about in the last post.. It’s Paradise Circus, it’s so good even after about 30 listens, im not sure when it’s released but as soon as it’s on iTunes it’s mine – and the album Heligoland too

There is a proper music video but it won’t let me put it on, you have to watch the music video though, it’s basically an old woman talking about her prostitution days and porn days, really awesome.

Now Personal life;

Wednesday I got absolutely off my trotter at the pub, came home, met up with a guy whom i had intercourse with back in march/may time, it was very fun, it was outside again like last time, which was very muddy - since its winter :-/

Then I invited him back to mine because the cold was too cold.

Dad also give me a metrocentre gift card.. he was going to give it to my sister – but i had a small tantrum and so he give in. I spent hours there, but only spent £15 on a shirt, I hate shopping alone, but everyone was at work.

(me in new shirt and vest)

On the note of work, everyone else is making me so jealous about having their Christmas Parties. But unfortunately we can’t have ours until the end of January this is so we aren’t too drunk to come into work the next day, par, I come into work at least once a week pissed. shhh – I’m just slipping by.

I love to colour in – Still

Thursday 10th – Monday 14th December #5

The first time I’ve listened to the radio in a long time, and an amazing song comes on. It’s a new song by Massive Attack. It appears they have a new album coming out in February about 10 weeks – not long.
The song Is amazing and beautiful and haunting – but unfortunately I didn’t hear the track,

I’m in the bath now. I find it so much easier to think when im surrounded by hot water and the scent of whatever bath gel ive poured in.

Thursday night me and mel went to Stonelove, I can’t remember much from it to be honest, but theres a photograph of us two…

Oh friday was great! instead of going to see Electric six we went for drinks instead, stayed out and went to Jukebox, we caught the last ten minutes of O Children playing – which was awesome as I forgot they were up here – they were pretty cool to say the least.

We also met Emily and Alice whom we met at a Stonelove the week before, glad we all remembered each other!

Oh I think I could have an allergy or intolerance to some of the food I eat… my stomachs been going crazy the past few weeks – need to get this sorted at the doctors when I have an appointment on the 23rd of this month, I’ll ask for a skin test or something.. I just need help really.

now I leave you with Massive attack Unfinished Sympathy – since I cant find their new one.

tuesday 8th – Thurday 10th Dec #4

Wow the back-end of the week really builds up in my diary – D&P quiz is great – it is a regular thing me and Mel do and we always loose and come last but we enjoy it, we started talking to these to girls who were quite patronising… “oh you never win but you still come back and try..bless….” NO we come for the crack…bitch tits.

next week its the Christmas Quiz, the last one this year – of 2009!

This year has been quite a whirled wind of a ride for me and Mel, we’ve accomplished a lot and lost a lot, but it’s been a great year i suppose, we’ve found and met new people new relationships, new beginnings.

2010 is a brand new start for us both, we’ve booked and planned our working trip away to Ibiza, to spend a glorious 4 month abroad. quite a few people have doubted – because were handing in our notices at work and not coming back after 2 weeks.. they can’t quite believe that we’ll cope alone… but we will – even if we’re on the streets we’ll crash at some friend’s till we find our feet, at least we’ll have the sun!

Friday – hasn’t came yet.. well its now, but at 4am.. we arent going to see Electric six, we don’t want to waste the money seeing a band we arent great fan’s of, so we’re gonna Jukebox it instead!

I haven’t had a play with new SLR (not digital) camera yet and I don’t think i will tomorrow, as i’m pretty exhausted and i’ll be hung over tomorrow – plus ill need to catch up on food intake as i’ve lacked slightly the past few days. Tomorrow night shall be good, ill blog about it – whenever the next blog comes about.

Not looking forward to Christmas at all, it’s the worst time of year. Skint. Skint. Skint. pah, whoever invented the consumerism part of it should be shot – I’ll do it myself!

Bit Drunk.. if there’s any spelling mistakes please forgive or get bent,

love.

Saturday 5th – Tuesday 8th December #3

Awful picture from Stonelove last Thursday – I remember as the photoguy came up to us mel (on the right) obviously saw we were about to get snapped and rushed up into the photo.

Ive broken my compact digi cam so its so annoying that i can’t snap any important thing that might happen, ive been asking a few people but they don’t have any spares – god damnit! It just has to break before christmas when im totally skint.. plus I don’t get paid until the 23rd, but im working right up until christmas day, so i can’t buy presents before christmas, people will just have to wait until after christmas for whatever i might get them – This is so good for me as everything im gonna buy will be in the sale! score!

Been doing some stuff in my art book (which i still need to detache and re-create) but since i dont have a cam, i can post the stuff.. which is better for me as i’m quite work shy and it’ll give me time to think about it and decide whether to post it

Coming up this week!

1. Wednesday night Pub Quiz
2. Explore new film camera and take it out on its first shoot with me!
3. Electric Six at Newcastle o2 academy

Bye for now.

Tuesday 24th Nov – Friday 4th December #2

As far as I can rememeber its been a good week and a bit – let me recoil my memories.

On Payday me and Mel spent a day in town, we went to see New Moon, which was good, although i havnt seen the first one but i did enjoy it we then went to KFC and then to the  Jon Burgerman show at Electrik Sheep followed by the afterparty at Tokyo

after being out all day we thought we couldn’t end it so after the after party we had our own fun and headed to JukeBox

at Jukebox we met two guys who were in a band and we had a good chat with them, Mel was inches from Kissing the hot tattooed guy, and somehow i ended up kissing the “Dapper??” guy – and then we made a shoot from them – we’ll leave them hanging we wont be left hanging!

Pauses for ten minutes trying to figure out whats next…
Oh, ive had lauren round quite a few times for a drink, we also went to North Sheilds and bought apparently scary monster masks – to paint they were 97p each with the paints so you can’t complain! – Got pissed painted them, wore them, left them (see photo) oh dont drink cheap bella i was sick all over the bathroom, lush!

oh and i got molested by lauren with permanent marker >.<

Oh my Ebay items came! my film slr camera and Long johns came but my Cheeseburger phone hasnt came just yet :’(

Went to Dog and Parrot pub quiz, we didn’t win again – again we came last! but we actually got alot right this time, at least 50% if i remember… we had to think of a team name, which was a porn movie but could be associated with newcastle e.g “Debbie does Darras (hall) so after trying to think of some we came up with PussyGalore Wideopen get it?

Last night we went to Stonelove which was brilliant, also met quite a few people, oh and Digital workers fucking stole my jumper :’( town was pretty dead last night, but it didn’t spoil anything!
Woke up at 3pm today just crashing on sofa watching music Videos on virgin ONdemand. not sure if everything is in here… but as to what i can remember is.
It’s been quite a heavy week on my liver?

My finger nails are dirty – what the fuck was i doing last night?

Wednesday to Tuesday #1

A Quick post on this week so far…
firstly i sold 68 comics, money came through today spending it wisely…(wine) I sold them last wednesday i think, but still havn’t posted them, very lazy, but they’ve not contacted me complaining so all is good on that front.
This week should be good, payday on friday, town with Melissa on friday to see New moon, KFC and go to Electrik sheep for a couple.
oh i think one day last week Lauren shaved my hair which was scary but the result was good, not bald, just the side shaven, on that note the other side of my hair needs a trim down.
I Deactivated facebook on Friday… lasted 4 days, which is an achievement for me!
but i had to log back on and nose at everyone, plus contacting people was a bit of a nightmare especially when you done have credit!
oh i submitted some photos into Albion to Arcadia magazine, the lass who obviously deals with submissions sounded pleased so that looks promising, think its for Decembers issue or January’s not sure. finger’s crossed.
on that note, I’ve got plenty of spare time this week to go out and do some photography, ill take a mix of camera’s and go to town or somewhere, if you know of any unusual places give me a shout…
anything else… trying to think….
oh had a great weekend went to Bulletproof on saturday night, got very drunk, me, Melissa and Rebecca spend some time on bulletproof dancefloor after falling over, and by god their was some eye candy that night although rebecca didn’t seem to agree.. oh went to Dog and Parrot pub quiz on wednesday, that was the hardest quiz we done, and we got the lowest score since weve started doing the quizes, love that pub theres some nic eeye candy in there too

going to my sisters to see nephew and niece now, also meeting Lauren  at 7 for a drink as i havnt seen her in a small while!

Ciao Amigos!
