Jeez I SUCK at blogging

The reason I never seem to blog is because I never want to miss anythign out and then I do so many things and have so much to blog about that its all too daunting to get on with.

So here's what happened last night.
My parentals were up for my mums birthday which it tomorrow (Monday)

Here are some photomagraphs!


Bahahh Simon looks like a cat



This is our communal hall way to out flat.. its pretty rad.



Dan looking very nice in her new top


Mum looks so funny here....




Gah I look like such a goober....

Was a really fun night although I hate saturday nights out 'cause its so rowdy and full of 'young 'uns'

Ice Ice Baby!

In an attempt to make way for some healthy food we defrosted our freezer!!!

What a mission!



Its like a whole new world now though! So much space for fooood!

( I hope you like the tiny picture of Morrissey on the fridge haha)

Fat fighters united


Today I joined weight watchers!
It was stressful because it was run by little old ladies and I did it on my lunch break but I'm soooo glad I did it!

Although stepping on the scales was a huuuuuge shock and not in a good way, oh dear maybe I went OTT in LDN.

Simon's such a rad boyfriend, I just pretty much chucked the books and technical stuff at him and he read it all and made me a super lunch and works out all my points and stuff, I think its really great it's given me a real boost in doing it properly! Also I'm happy to talk about it and I'm laughing about it alot which is better than crying I can tell you that much!

I didnt do that great on thursday though... we went out to Chiquitos but that was prior to a huuuuuge asda shop to get lots of diety food! I brought so much shit thats good! Loads of wieght watchers foods that will see me through 'til the end of feb I hope!

I feel better for dieting already!!

Woooo roll on thursday!

Girly day!

So Meg came to Bristol today to get her hair all purdy'd up!
We spent the night laughing alot at my immense weight gain and I think we just had some hysteria left over - I love laughing like that!

I laughed sooo much over the pasdt few days my ribs hurt so much!

So we went to get some fake hair in Briz - all the places that sell the hair in Bristol are pretty ghettolicious and in sketchy areas. We went to one place and they were a bit rude so we went to the other place (which was just as sketchy) and we got what we were looking for although I dont think people believe in 'Service with a smile' anymore. (remember guys you're never fully dressed without a smile!!)

We had some super siqqq lunch but did our usual of ordering with not enough time to spare and having to rush and be late.

Klem came to the salon (even though it was her day off) and hung out with me.

Megs hair looked amazing, I didnt take a picture though - stupid me!

Klem came to hang out and Simon made us pie mmmmmm pie, Klem also cut his hair and she cut mine tooooo its rad I'm going to upload a picture in a minute - here it issss.

Alkaline Trio

Monday was the day for Alkaline Trio - no support just the trio a super small venue and my best pard!

We went into Croydon in the day to buy some clothes I was hoping to get something nice for the gig but ended up buying loads of shit I didnt need hahah

pics

We were a little behind schedule but I managed to get myself looking how I wanted and Meg got there too in the end. I was drinking 7.5% cider (Blllllueeeck) but it made me a little bit tipsy on the tube! Here we are setting out!



This gig itself was a little surreal, I was pissed off there were touts selling tickets considering it sold out in like 4 minutes and I just thought you wouldnt go!!
I also felt really weirded out being surrounded by people who love Alk3 as much as I do, I'm not used to people liking what I'm into, mainly because of how I grew up and where I grew up, but it made me feel weird to be with people when the night was very close to my heart!
We got a mega good view on like a raised platform but some bint (who wasnt moving, singing or dancing to any of the songs) had a go at me for spilling my drink on her... I was thrusting the arm a bit much but heck what did she expect - I gave her some attitude back and then missioned it to the front!

The following photos are pretty shit because they were taken with my phone. I'm putting them up to show how close/how small it was in there.

At one point I was feeling it alot and was adament I was going to crowd surf.... (Er why??) but I couldnt get up and all of a sudden I was pushed here and there and found myself on the very front row!!! I was super happy!



Here are some of Pards photos -





After the gig we didnt hang around because I'd spent too much money shopping (oops) so we went back to Vinnies and for the first time in years I got stoned... I dont really know why but I felt like it was an experience! Won't be doing it again any time soon but it was funny to feel the way I used to when I was in my youth!

Brand New, Glassjaw and Thrice

Soooo on saturday (almost a whole bloody week ago) we went to LDN for some gigs.
Meg picked me up on her way up to London with Jamie and Joe was super fun on the way up not really doing much just annoying Meg and being imature.

We got to Vinnies but didn't have much time to get ready so the boys left earlier and me and Pard made our own way there...



This is a really crap photo from the gig, we were seated but had better seats than the boys who booked earlier! Brand New were super as were the other bands!

It was soooo wierd how many people I knew and saw at the gig, just like blasts from the past you know?

Anyway Wembley was a bitch to get to and from we got a tube in the end but it was basically full of people who had been to the gig.

Despite Meg driving us all the way up to LDN we rushed and got seats on the tube where as she was too slow! You snooze you lose Pardo!




Here she is standing.
I'm ashamed to admit at one point I made her cry, that train was ultimate hysteria.



Look at Jim when he lost 'the ability to dream'

Thats that from that night well except a huge mission back to Vinnies, a swing into an indian restraunt, fox watching and then alot of 50" tv screen abuse back at Vinnies.

We had another sleepover and obviously my snoring kept everybody up..... oh deary me!


**EDIT**

I seem to have deleted the photo from the gig - don't worry you're not missing out on much xoxo

Nabbed

I feel really guilty about keeping this long sleeved shirt but somone from Dead Swans left it at my house and I loooove it so even though we're friends on Facebook I havent told them they've left it here, if he speaks to me I will do

Dead Swans /The Carrier / Sleepover Club

So Rachel and Wayne came back to Bristol with me so they could go to this gig and celebrate Rach's birthday.
Simon had to work and Rachel and Me went shopping and Wayne spent the day in the pub!

We went to the gig later which was fun I just wish I didnt have to get up for the following day 'cause I would have got wasted!


Blue Steel!




None of us were ready for this photo!




After the gig we hung around at the Croft, Rachel and Wayne are friends with Dead Swans so they were catching up! We decided we should carry on so they ditched where they were supposed to be staying and came to Crash at mine, not just Swans though - The carried too plus any roadies and managers.

There were 18 people in my flat that night! Fun times. Damn work.





The long sleeved Carrier shirt hung on the door there was lef tbehing so I have claimed it! I love it - was totally worth having load of boys in my flat haha.


We have good hair.



Sexy.

Was so much fun, but I had to drag myself into work the next day, and waking up with one random guy in our bedroom with us was weiiiiiiird!

More mindless posing.

More time in Newquay working with my hair and various clothes so I took some photos, which was good 'cause I think it made Simon miss me more!







I am loving headbands latley, well since i worked out I can kind of wear them... caught onto them a bit late but what the heck!

Auntie Justine!

So there was another reason I wanted to go to Newquay too! To see the lovely Ruby Grace!



We had a fun day at the aquarium! It was free to get in because Rachels friend works there and as it was Jan and snowy we pretty much had the place to ourselves and had a bit of a tour!






How cool is this guy?????!



Octopus freaked me out.






This puffer fish was AMAZING, its a girl and it was like right up to the glass wanted to look at us, we couldnt make it puff though.
