I don't want character, I want pancakes!
I am feeling just like Sabrina the Teenage Witch in that episode where she gets addicted to pancakes.
I realised I don’t know who I am. If I try and define myself I can’t. And although I don’t want to be pigeon holed, sometimes I think it would be nice to say “oh I’m just a real girly girl.”
A lot of the time, I feel like I constantly battling between two polar opposites of myself.
I like to wear pretty tea dresses and make myself look nice with make-up. I...
I hate people who review films with a narrow mind. Those who can’t appreciate a film for it’s vivid colours and enchanting music. Clever use of scenery and beautiful camera shots. Those who say, “it was well boring; not as exciting as I expected.” Well go watch one of your brain-dead action movies in silence then.
Rant over.
Emotional Bag Check
Checked me in some emotional baggage. Someone replied with Jimmy Eat World, The Middle. It was perfect. Music really does help sometimes.

Socks
If I think about it, my most commonly used phrase is; I love socks.
I just love socks. Especially new socks. And I know I’ve said it time and time again, but it will never get old. I will continue to preach the joy of slipping on a pair of new socks.
Also, I love the words socks. It’s so satisfying just to say, let alone wear. Socks. Socks. SOCKS.
Today has been a good day for...

Carnival Week
Carnivals are so much fun. The colours, the music, the smells. It’s like wandering around in a dream. Just outside the pub they had this huge group playing carnival music. As soon as you hear that drum beat your hips start shaking and before you know it you’ve been sucked into this crazy dance with all crazy kinds of percussion instruments.
I rediscovered my love for the wondrous...
Go figure.
Ok, so just concluded that listening to the Harry Potter theme on repeat for the past hour does not help my intense desire to go to Florida, it only fuels the fire.
Super 8
The classic I’ve-just-been-kidnapped-so-now-I-must-beat-you-up-steal-your-clothes-and-assume-your-identity gag. Awesome.
I’ve always wanted to be in a situation in which this is a necessary option for me.

I'm still good
I’m still good Trying to be my best When I fall it’s a mess Pick myself up again I’m still good
Oh my gosh. How do you do it Miss Montana? Seriously the most happiest medicine in the world.
Me and Miss Trunchbull are as one.
You know how in Matilda Miss Trunchbull says, “My idea of a perfect school, is one in which there are no children!”?
Well that pretty much sums up life for me. My idea of a perfect world, is one in which there are no people!
People are annoying.
Dude
Seriously? I can’t stop saying dude. Even when I’m not saying it out loud I am saying it in my head. DUDE.
I remember when everyone was a dude. I pretty sure it was during the 90s.
My first year college results spelled out DUDE. It made my failure seem a little less awful.
Maybe this is a sign? That I should totally take up surfing or something… Sweet.
LOL
I just remembered.
Cat thought Mary-Kate and Ashley were the same person. LOL. She thought the scenes were filmed separately because it was the same person. And when I asked if she’d ever seen pictures of them together she thought it was done with split screens and stuff. Ha ha. Oh Catherine.
Hello stranger
I’ve decided that using Tumblr upset me a lot. It made me think of sad things too much. I have avoided using it because of this. But I have decided to use it for positive and happy thoughts now. I used to use this blog as a means of memory. Being an easily forgetful person, I liked looking back through my posts and reminding myself of moments in time.
So starting again.

You were angry
You were sad
You never listened
You were difficult to please
You were hard to be with
77. Get over my fear of having bugs and things...
So they say a good way to overcome fears is flooding. Now I’m not afraid of birds as such. However, I am not fond of the idea of birds flapping around my ears. I figured start with something cute like birds and then maybe warm to the idea of bugs and last but certainly not least moths.
Oh gosh, so Jasmine let the budgies fly around the conservatory and I was sitting in this confined space...
Cookie
I miss the having the dog around. I mean sure it’s easier to juggle now, but he listens to me and doesn’t judge and he gives me cuddles when I need them and now I am all alone.
I never thought I’d get so attached to him.
25. Learn to juggle with three balls
The most important thing I have learned so far is that it is so much harder learning to juggle when you have a dog like mine. I’ve taken to locking myself in a room so that when I drop them (which is a lot!) the dog doesn’t head straight for the sand filled balls.
People spout drivel when they let their emotions...
I loathe the sayings,
“Absence makes the heart grow fonder.”
and
“Time heals all wounds.”
They totally contradict each other. How could I possibly believe either of them?
Ain't no way for me to love you if you won't let...

1. I love squirrels. I love their furry little faces and I love their little paws and the way they scurry around. I love saying squirrel and making funny faces when I say it. I once co-founded the squirrel nutkin gang, which never really had much to do with squirrels but it did require us to shake very violently whenever we said it. I wish to capture a squirrel and feed it nuts and then release...
Sea Of Love

My Hero
My Hero is Hannah Montana and it has been since I was 15.
I think I would like to meet her one day and it would be lots of fun. We would play dress up and sing together. She has a beautiful set of nashers and the best wig I ever did see.
I don’t care what any of y’all say. Living by the lessons of Hannah Montana is perfectly natural and healthy. She promotes well being and...
Is it just me?
Sometimes when I am in public bathrooms I get afraid that they have two way mirrors and there are people in secret rooms watching us go to the toilet. So I try to hurry out and not make too much eye contact with the mirror.

Sickness
I’m sad and I want to cry.
I feel all alone.
I like to think I’m only feeling this way because I feel sick. Being ill makes people feel that way doesn’t it?

“…And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you...”
– Roald Dahl
I hate everything.
The dog shit on the living room carpet, then a few hours later he went upstairs and was sick on the carpet.
Downton Abbey
What a fantastic programme, it made me laugh numerous times.
In the last episode Maggie Smith declared that she should “Put that in your pipe and smoke it!” Oh how I laughed!
How is it that someone of my age laughs more at Edwardian dramas than moronic things aimed at teenagers such as The Inbetweeners?

Day 30 - What effect has Harry Potter made on your...
Well isn’t this just the million dollar question? I feel like this should be an epic post to mark the end of my 30 day Harry Potter challenge. I can’t really promise that so I’ll just answer the question.
I love reading. I love picking up a book and being transported to another time and another place. Reading is escaping from whatever is happening around you. Even if...
Day 29 - Did you enjoy A Very Potter Musical.
I can’t say I’ve seen it all the way through but just like wizard rock I love that people are passionate enough to write a whole musical. They really should send this thing to Broadway.
It’s good fun derived from a fantastic source.

Day 28 - Do you listen to Wizard Rock, what do you...
I’ve listened to some of it. I love that people are passionate enough about things to want to make a band about them for example. I think it’s amazing that the Harry Potter franchise has spawned it’s own genre of music.
One song I found AGES ago which I love is Ode to Lav Lav by Roonil Wazlib. Fantastic.

Mister Sandman, bring me a dream”

I am awake at a time I didn't realise existed
I feel like I am dreaming right now. My mind is working in scenes, ones that aren’t quite ready to be put together yet. Perhaps I should sleep and when I wake things will seem real again.
I can’t stop playing scenes of you in my head. You are so wonderful and my dreams can’t get enough of you. One day I won’t need to imagine that you are here with me always.
Day 27 - Would you rather own The Invisibility...
I can think of never ending uses for the invisibility cloak. Excuse me while I take a stroll in imagination land…
Oh it is good.
Day 26 - If you could be able to work one spell...
Avifors.
This would be a hilarious party trick. Everyone would get freaked out and I’d pretend I didn’t know what was going on to add to the fuel, when secretly I’d be laughing my head off because it’ll be me all along!
I am such a prankster.
