Right now I am sitting in Vicki's house. Yay me! She had a sleepover for her birthday yesterday y'see.

Jenny says when you're cat has fleas your house has them too. Also, Hitler was a vegan.

Becky says the kettle has boiled. She also says the revolution of... something... dudes... something something...

Vicki says WE HAVE LOST KIM!!

Lydia says jeeeeeeeeeeeooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrggggggbbbbbhhhhhhhhh.

Good morning from me. And good morning from her.

Oh my God, I just came across this as someones sig on DevART:

"stressed is desserts spelled backwards, so have a cookie and chill"

I did not know that stressed was desserts backwards!!! HOW COOL IS THAT?!?! >_>

Not quite as cool as racecar spelt backwards = racecar ... but still.

Also - Eurovision in an hour XD

19th May 2008

Hehe, I've got the Media Player on shuffle for every song on my PC right now. I'm currently bopping my head to 'Whitney Housten - How Will I Know' XD AWESOME!

Anywhos, its my parents' Silver Wedding Anniversary today - yep, 25 years! They went to Paris this past weekend and my dad gave my mum a ring on the top of the Eiffel Tower! Awwh, how sweet is that :D We're meant to be going for a meal sometime tonight too.

That reminds me, I'll have to go wash my hair soon, seeing as how a lovely seagull or other flying hell-beast decided to drop one on my head today in the school yard. How lucky am I, eh?

CARRY ON! YOU WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER! CARRY ON! DA DA DA DA DA DA DAAAAAAAA!

...sorry, just got to that bit in the song >_>

Hey

Slightly random question but anyone know anywhere you might be able to download the music off of The Weakest Link? I need it for school :/

I may finally get to play Phoenix Wright on my DS - huzzah! This download better work, I'm tellin' ya!

New Indiana Jones on 22nd! How shocking!!! :D

In other news: It's the weekend. Squee!

23rd April 2008

Why, hello there peoples of the internets. May I welcome you to my humble abode.

But anyway, I GOT SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT: PLAYING WITH FIRE LAST WEEKEND!! And it's greatness as per usual. I'd quote something that made me laugh out of it, but I can't remember anything right now XD

We had to do Enterprise for enrichment today and, to be honest, I was not looking forward to doing it but it was actually pretty funny. We got split into two groups - Carina, Razel & me and Becky, Viv & Greg' - and the team leaders of the groups had to pick up 3 items from Miss's office and then we had to 'make' a product out of it and do a presentation about it. The presentations were so funny, everyone put on their best 'Salesman' voice and we tried to sell our product. Becky's group were selling a little robot mp3 player that followed a magnetic pen (i think it was magnetic anyway) and we were selling 'Musicup' - a custom made mug gift set with a 10track CD. Hahaha, it was such a lame product but it was the best we could come up with with a mug, a CD and a board rubber (the board rubber posed as marshmallows/hot chocolate sachet).
But yeah, it was hilarious watching their presentation/doing our presentation, and then having the big "Do you have any questions?" battle at the end XD

I better be off ol' chum. My mother and I are taking a visit to the gymnasium this eve and I positively have to get ready now, I do. Tatty-bye.
Walk on Joesphine, walk on. *clop clop clop*

18th April 2008

I learnt how to kind-of do a frontdrop today in trampolining! XD I was pretty scared of trying it but it wasn't that bad in the end. And yeah, I've lost most of the skin on my elbows but I can now do a front drop!

Vicki linked me to Charlie the Unicorn 2 yesterday. Gotta be one of the most random and annoying things ever but it is so, so hilarious =D Jenny & me were quoting it all day, and I sent her the 'Put a Banana In Your Ear' song before XD The best line of that song being, "Put a ripe banana right into your favourite ear." Hahaha...

I think we may be going to town tomorrow (so Vicki if you read this in time & get the urge to come - ya welcome to!) but we're all uberskint (except that Jenny one...) so we're just gonna go on a little, shall-we-say 'Cultural' walk down by the PierHead/Albert Dock XD

I bought ICO last weekend! I've been looking everywhere for it and I just randomly decided to check Zavvi to see if their price for FFXII was lower than Woolies when I found it! Just sitting there minding it's own business on the shelf! I was like, "Gasp!" so I just forgot all about FFXII, grabbed it and made for the till, having a little nosey at the people demoing Mario Kart Wii on the way. And not only did I come out with a game that I thought was near-impossible to find except for £17 or whatever preowned on the internet (I got it £13 NEW) but the dude who served me on the till was really good-looking XD And after I left I got a KitKat Chunky & some Cokie-Cola and chilled out in the sun for a while.
All in all it was a pretty C'est Super day!

So anyway, I played some of it last night and it is pretty impressive. Just the sheer size and detail of the castle is amazing (especially seeing as the game's about 5-6 years old) and it seems like it'll be an interesting little adventure. I'm hoping it's as good an experience as Shadow of the Colossus which was also a very "Whoa! Would you look at that!!" kind of game.

Anyway, I better go. Areeeeba!

8th April 2008

I'm off school today! Oh, sweet blissful happiness!!

Actually, tell a lie, I had to go in this morning for about 10 boring, pointless minutes with my dad (who was making those stupid Nazi jokes of his the whole time XD. Terrible...) for a parents meeting thing. So yeah, apparantly my target is "To ask questions in Science and give the teacher eye contact so I don't daydream and miss a huge chunk of the lesson becasuse he explains things really quickly & just once".

I discovered a cool & handy little website the other day: www.last.fm You can put what looks like any band/artist in the search bar and then you can listen to their songs! Not ALL of the tracks are the full song, but (from what I've seen so far) a lot of them are. It looks like it'll be useful for quickly checking out a band's sound without having to spend time downloading. I'm checking out Rise Against right now, because their song on GH3 was cool XD

Might try & write some Smarman if Mr Inspiration feels like visiting my brain. Or else I'll just play on Harvest Moon & carry on winning over Dark, 'hem, sorry, Skye.

1st April 2008

Haha, after hearing about Rick Rolling for the first time on the local news last night, I found it hilarious to find the following choice of answers on the GameFAQs Poll of the Day...

Teehee!

And if you don't know what Rick Rolling actually is, here's the definition:

When what you think is a link to something you want to see actually directs you to a video of Rick Astley singing "Never Gonna Give You Up."

Genius.

30th March 2008

Over a month since my last post? Yikes.

Only 1 more day of the easter holidays left. Oh, woe is me!

Ohmigosh! In Southport today I saw the new Skulduggery Pleasant book & from the cover alone it looks so cool XD. I really wanted to get it but they only had it in hooge hard-back version, and I wasn't prepared to pay £13 on a book I'll probably only read once. I'll have a little nosey on amazon in a minute to see if any paperbacks are out yet.

I should probably have finished off that chocolate wrapper sketch in my artbook by now, what with school in two days. But then, you know me, I just LOVE leaving everything till last minute -_-

Oh God, I found the most uber-fantastic pairs of tights EVAR the other day. Just take a look at -> these shockers <- ...Yes. I KNOW. But the problem is, what pair would I buy? There's so many awesome ones!! Plus, there's the little issue of them being £13 for a single pair of tights. Just imagine I got a hole in them :O

Toodles.

P.S. Would any kind stranger like to donate £200 to 'The Get Lydia an Xbox360 Fund'? Anyone? Anyone at all...?

Ever feel like every tube, hole, nook, cranny & crevice in your head is stuffed full of cotton wool & sludge?

16th February 2008

This week seems to have gone by in a hazy blur, I tell you.

It's half term this week so, for my birthday last Monday (I'm a year older! nooo!), I had a sleep over with my friends. Thanks to Becky & Vicki, who suggested not going to bed, I only got about an hours sleep XD We just stayed up pretty much all night playing games, doing hairs and writing stories (thinking back, I really should have put a film on but, no worries - still had fun).

Once everyone was back home on Tuesday, I fell asleep in the car on the way back from Jade's and then collapsed on the sofa when I got in the house. I woke up about 4 hours later to the Relic Hunter theme tune (now THAT'S how you should wake up) before hovering round like one of the undead for the rest of the night.

I stayed in on Wednesday. Had a lie in, *finally* played some Okami, yadda yadda.

On Thursday we went to Ormskirk with Margaret (sp?). Got some of that gorgeous lamb from the butchers (it's heavenly, I swear), had a look round some of the shops & then headed back to Liverpool. Because it was only early we went to Starbucks & got a vanilla latte and then we noticed the Converse were still on sale in Westworld. Seeing as I had some of my birthday money with me, we went in to take a look & I came out with a pair of 'Assymetrical' black converse. They're really freaky 'cause the laces are off-centre but hey - they were only £14, so can't really argue.

Yesterday I went on a coach excursion to Warwick & Stratford-Upon-Avon with my mum, my dad, Margaret & Vicky. It took a hella long time to get there but they were nice towns. We saw Shakespeares house in Stratford but it was really expensive to go in, so we didn't. Haha, in one of the shops we saw a bottle of wine with 32 carat gold flakes in it. It was bizarre! Imagine drinking gold!

That's brings us to today. I am obviously in my house, otherwise I wouldn't be typing this now, and I think I'm just going to have a similar day to Wednesday (and basically do nothing at all).

It's back to school on Monday. Things could get slightly interesting due to the 'information' we got last Monday, or else things could be as crappy & uninspiring as usual.

Toodles.

4th February 2008

Ahh! Lost last night = ZOMG!

I love that show purely for the fun of talking about it later on XD

Thoughts:
-Still can't believe poor Charlie's dead.
-Oceanic 6? So only 6 people survived/got off the island?!
-"I shouldn't have gone with Locke"-Hurley. WHAT!?
-Charlie is an undead!?
-Just WHO are the supposed 'rescuers'?!

Must. Know. Answers.

P.S. I started writing a story about Smarman yesterday! It's basically about his origins. There's not much more to write, so I'll probably put it up on here/link to it when I'm done.

Adios.

3rd February 2008

Lost starts again tonight. Oooooh!

31st January 2008

We got our Tetanus needle today in school. I tell you, it did not hurt AT ALL when I actually got the shot but afterwards and now, crap it aches. It feels like my whole arms bruised or something. The needle was only tiny!! Where's the logic?! Haha, everyone was moaning all day, "God, my arms killing, is yours?" XD The people who were giving us the needle had to ask us all these questions before they gave us it and one of them was, "Is there any chance you could be pregnant?" I was like, "What? No!"

I finally sat and watched Princess Mononoke the other day when I was off sick. It was on C4 at Christmas and it had 5 stars so I got mum to record it. Weird, but cool, especially those little white tree spirit people things - they were boss but pretty creepy actually XD Oh, and don't get me started on that forest spirit! He was flippin' terrifying in his whole daytime form!! That face will be in my nightmares for weeks to come!

23rd January 2008

Whoa, I couldn't believe it when I heard about Heath Ledger's death this morning. Both me & my brother literally went, "...what?!" when we heard it on the news. Not that he was my favourite actor or anything (I don't actually have one) but I was really shocked about it. It'll be proper weird if they still go ahead with the new Batman film, what with him playing the Joker and everything.

Jeez, I hate it when something unexpected like this happened, like just the other week my sister's boyfriend's mate was hit by a car on the motorway (I think he'd had a little bump or something so pulled onto the hard shoulder. He was getting out to see if the other people were okay and...well, yeah), he was only about 20...

It's so sad. Just the way you can be here one day and gone the next. Especially when it's people who were so young and had a whole life ahead of them.
Rest in peace James' friend and Heath.

14th January 2008

AieeCarrumba! I FINALLY AFTER LIKE A YEAR OR SOMETHING EQUALLY AS RIDICULOUS BEAT FINAL FLIPPIN FANTASY III!!!!

How stupid is that last dungeon/boss(or should I say bossES)?! They could have at least had a half way point where you could save or something! Never mind going through some big huge castle before fighting a (literally) impossible boss that pretends to kill you then go through more dungeon while fighting another 4 bosses and THEN going the last little stretch to where the last boss is and then you will most definately be killed by it! AND YOU HAVE TO START ALL THAT AGAIN! Idiotic, it really is (still not as idiotic as FFX-2 however, which isn't hard idiotic - just plain idiotic. Example: "I don't like your plan. It sucks!" *Lydia buries head in hands*)

But anyway, now I don't have to bother with III anymore. Thank goodness. By the way, my end levels/jobs where, incase anyone cares whatsoever,
Luneth - Lv 62 - Warrior lv 99 - got deaded
Arc - Lv 62 - Summoner lv somethingsomething - lived!
Refia - Lv 63 - Devout lv somethingsomething -lived!
Ingus - Lv 63 - Ninja lv something something - lived!
So yeah. "LUNETH!" was the only one who died. Lawl.
I was thoroughly disappointed with the ending scene, it was pretty crap. The only good thing that came out of it was that I got a laugh from Arc being gay with that prince dude again XD

So yeah. I think I might play Pheonix Wright next on my DS, heard some good things about it.

Au revoir.

Becky- "Sometimes I just sit there staring at the pictures in the manual."

12th January 2008

I know it's a bit late but - happy new year!!

I can't stop humming a Metallica song Craig was listening to before, I think it's called 'The Unforgiven' or something :/ At least it's a pretty good tune to hum, hehe.

We went to the Capital of Culture opening concert/whatever-it-was last night. It was actually pretty cool, what with the whole rocking out on electric guitars on various buildings and what-not XD (including the radio city tower! I was like "Whoaza!") I also got to see one of the Beatles - Ringo Starr! Haha! Even if I only saw him on the big screens and him really really tiny because he was on top of St Georges hall...but still. I reckon they could have had some huge fireworks at the end or something though, it all ended pretty suddenly. Not that I didn't enjoy it though!

G'bye!

Friday 14th December 2007

Hey guys.

Been through a bit of a rough patch at school this week. Things don't half get uber-complicated sometimes.

Moving on, my Guitar Hero 3 came on Monday! I've finished it on medium so now I'll move on to hard. When I first started playing I was like, "Whoa, what have they done to this?" but I've gotten used to it now. I see why people were saying it's changed, you can just feel it (coming in the air tonight, hold on). It's like, you can't quite put your finger on it, but its lost some of it 'umpf'. They shouldn't have changed who made the game. Still good fun though, some cool songs on there.

What is it now? 11 days till Christmas? Squee!

G'bye!

I LOVE YOU HEADCAT!!

Tuesday 4th December 2007

I have to tell you, my right hand is so cold right now. Darn mouse...

Yeah, so anyway, my life right now? Same old story. Early mornings, crappy school, home, bed, early mornings, crappy school...and so on. And don't take that the wrong way. Don't take it as, "MY LIFE'S A MISERY!! DAMN YOU CRUEL WORLD!!"...even though it did kinda had a 'mi life sux' ring to it.

...

I just started waffling. My apologies.

Anyway, when I do get home my routine lately seems to be grab some milk & a biscuit & then watch some 'toons. I blame Becky to be honest. But anywho, it always seems to be the last 15 mins of Fairly Odd Parents (I get in at quarter past the hour) and then I head on over to Cartoon Network for Storm Hawks (<- you can poke so much fun at that show, but it's still great XD). Then I usually go on the internets or something equally as mundane. Sigh.

What to talk about...what to talk about...erm...I ordered Guitar Hero 3 last night. It was about £7 cheaper on play.com than, like, the rest of the world, so I'm a pretty happy bunny right now - Despite the rumours there's something "not quite right" about GH3, it's "lost it's charm" and the fact that I don't even HAVE it yet (I'm waiting on the postie). But still, NEW GUITAR HERO SONGS!! Huh-zah!

I'd like to reccomend an absolutley fantabulous book to you peoples - Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy. Finished it last night and it was freakin' greatness it was! I mean, skeletons, detectives, wizards and good ol' wisecracks are fab on their own, but mush them all together and you've got yourself some AWESOME! Can't wait till April '08 for the next book!

Well, I'm bored and have geography homework to do (gotta draw some lame picture for a presentation that then needs to be photocopied and given to my 'marvellous' classmates for them to label as I ramble about floods. Oh joy of joys) so I'll be on my way.

'Till next time my eAmigos! (see what I did there??? With the 'e'??? 'Cause we're online???...Did I just hear a tumbleweed?)

G'bye!

Impressive.

That's what I've got to say about the Playstation 3. Down right impressive.

My brother bought his about a week or 2 ago but I only got my first proper play of it last night. I had a go of Motorstorm - so much fun XD. The crashes are proper great, heheh, especially if you're on a motorbike/quadbike. Then he showed me the demo of SKATE that he'd downloaded and that looked like good fun. We turned it off after a few mins though because he wanted to show me Warhawk. How great is that game?! Warhawk, I mean. Haha, after he'd shown me the basics of how to play it we joined a proper game (it's an online game) with loads of other people on it. We snuck into the enemy team's base but we got spotted so we were hiding in this little tower thing. The next minute our Craig's character has been killed and he's telling me to move out of the tower. Thing is, I didn't realise he had been killed so I stayed in the tower where I could see another player (thinking it was my brother) and got sliced to death XD. Sounds pretty lame right now, but it was funny at the time lol.

Anyway, after hearing a few bad things about the PS3, I was surprised by how good (and really clever) that console really is. 'Tis reccomended - if you have the money!
