True Beauty huh?

by admin on July 23, 2009

Best television show ever…

“True Beauty”  bunch of stuck up nutters stuck in a house together supposedly competing for the title of “America’s Most Beautiful Person”, when in fact they’re being judged on their inner beauty.

Except none of them have any.

In one challenge, Ashley lied about collecting money for charity so she’d have more to spend on clothes, walked straight past someone who was actually collecting for charity, took a guys watch (who’d gotten it for volunteer work to do with aids) and then didn’t help a bike rider who stacked it right in front of her.

Yup.  Evil.

But really, really good television.

I love fashion trends

by admin on June 26, 2009

I’ve had this ugly grandma cardigan for ages.  My friends used to always pay it out.  Now all the cardigans and stuff have come back into fashion, and people keep asking me where I got all my daggy cardies from.

I’m cool.  That’s right.  :-)

Mainly though I’m just looking forward to when they go out of fashion again and I can buy lots for cheap.

Foamy :-)

We had some fairly crazy weather lately, with big waves coming in, which left erosion and… foam.

Well, I thought it was cool.

Secrets of a Checkout Chick

by admin on May 29, 2009

1.  When I say “Hi, how are you” it’s nice manners to say something back.  Just because I’m being paid doesn’t mean you’re not a rude poo-head if you pretend I don’t exist.

2.  The conveyer belt is controlled by a sensor.  It won’t stop until your stuff gets to the end.  So you are achieving ABSOLUTELY NOTHING by pulling your stuff back everytime it gets within a metre of the end.  And when it does stop, it’s only because of the timer, or because the checkout chick turned it off, not because you have actually beaten it.  I repeat, you have achieved NOTHING.

3.  Asking for everything in one bag, and then making me double bag it because you’re scared it will break is just as bad for the environment as using two bags to start with.

4.  When you put everything on the conveyer belt, LEAVE IT THERE.  It is completely unnecessary to rearrange everything CONSTANTLY.  Say it with me “YOU ARE ACHIEVING NOTHING”.

5.  Handing each item to me individually makes the entire process about three times as long.

6.  You are not the first person to say “Oh look, you’re waiting just for me!”.  No, it’s just really, really slow.

Eighteen now!

by admin on April 30, 2009

So, while I was away I turned eighteen.  Chose to do so in a country where the age for everything is twenty one.  Whatever, it makes sense to me.  We were staying with Nishiie’s for my birthday and they took us out for dinner and surprised me with a cake and stuff.  It was really sweet.

And as far as presents go, I think I want to turn eighteen next year, too.  Thank you everyone!

 

My 14th birthday party.  Surprise, naturally.
