haha
A quick post as a certain (rather sexy) somebody pointed out that I hadn't blogged for a while, so seeing as today has been a good day, I will share.
Zoo days are always good, thats a given (although dreadfully disappointed that after next week I'm being dropped to once a month as I'm not needed so much, big sad face), but today was extra good as I had a mcdonalds (disgusting I know, but tastes soo good) and then.........I went to watch the final Potter movie.
It was soo good, I thoroughly LOVED it, and will go and watch it again no doubt. I have to admit, I cried, on at least 2 occassions, jumped once or twice, laughed, applauded, oh yes, it had everything!
However, I was not particularly impressed when the guy who served me my cinema tickets told me that my tattoo on my arm was not a dark mark, as only the one cast in the sky is called a dark mark! WRONG they are both dark marks, don't doubt the girl with the tattoo, I know, I've done my research, I'm the big potter geek thank.you.very.much. and I'm a girl, so always right anyway........
Oh and must add, my day ended with an as always, very nice fonecall with a very nice Mr (mentioned twice now see for effect :) ...), so all round happy lady.
Life is good at the moment really, and tomorrow (weather permitting for part) I'm sure is going to be an awesome day also.

Day 28: Favourite places to shop.
Wow, I wrote the title to this ages ago, but got distracted, oooh look a kitty...what??
Ha, no wonder I never get anything done! Anyway, my fav places to shop. I'm not sure I want to do this one today....I may come across as a scumbag, which I'm not really, just savvy. Alright, I do like carbooting, and when I say like, I mean love! ha, I must admit though, I rarely spend money on buying myself things these days, I pick up things that I know will make a killing on ebay so I have pennies to buy the things I want from ebay, like all the pretty corsets I have bought recently. I think I'd make a great business woman, I know how to barter, I know what to buy, and I know how to sell, genius me! :)
Anyway that'll do today, been a few long and probably arduous posts over the last few days so keeping this one short and sweet, like me :)

Wooop Wooop
I did it, (what you ask....see back to the suicide mission post) well not as well as I would have wished, but did it nonetheless. Met up with Jen and we ran round the park with 1 stop (tbh, I think we couldave done the whole way had she not had leg pain), which is approx 2 miles, I then part jogged, part walked to meet my friends at the De'Vere, and hung around for for a few mins (and went for a wee, in the hotel naturally). Then we set off round the De'Vere which is another 3 miles. I may have been jogging so slow that an old man with a stick could have over taken me, but I was still jogging! All the way round with no stops, a few 'ARGGHHHH's and 'get your ass up this hill emma' but I did it. Feel really good, a little wobbly, but really good. I'll soon be doing twice round the De'Vere with no stops, thats my next feat when I have mastered this, oh and speed, I've proven I have stamina, need speed!
Anyway, I feel good, nothings gonna stop me now, might think about doing a marathon in a few years!

Day 27: A talent of yours
Well singing of course, lalalalalalalalalala, voice of an angel me :)
Pffft, my dad confirmed my suspicions when I said the other day "Dad, can I sing?" and his reply was "hmmmm" Ta very much dad, he could've at least humoured me. Oh well, I'd like to think I can sing, even if only a little bit, I think it'd be ace to be a singer, but alas, I guess it's not meant to be.
I can however draw, like properly so you can tell what something is, not like some of this abstract artists who put a coloured line on a canvas and everyone coos round it like they have never seen so much talent all crammed into one piece of 'art'. My tutor pretty much confirmed this crazy idea that this sortof stuff is marvelous when I was trying to defend myself (for a change) and I mentioned that I can draw. The words that followed from her made me want to throw a cup of something hot down her dress. "well, we can all draw" erm no, no we can't. If nothing else that comment made me feel like my talent was worthless...we can all draw, hmmphhh.
Anyway, proof! I can draw in lots of different styles, I was a tattooist a while back, and at that time my drawings were very clean, with harsh lines that took me forever to perfect (I am a perfectionist you see, if the line is wrong I will redo it again and again until just right in those type of drawings, I've loosened up abit now). I still draw like this from time to time when people commission me to draw them tattoos (which reminds me, I have two of which I need to do).
Don't steal please, it's copywrited to me.
Recently I have got into drawing women, they are soo beautiful to draw, and you can have so much fun with them. My favourite is this one, I love fantasy stuff, and I think it's so delicate, I have actually started painting it, which I will post another time. There are flaws, I know, like the hands, and the face isn't brilliant, but I love it all the same.
Long post I'm sorry but I am passionate about drawing, so bear with me.
Over the last few weeks I have started drawing more stylized women, pin up's etc like this power dressing pin up, and my most recent burlesque (taken from a photo)
And finally, I would like to post this, as I am sure I remember rightly (hopes), this is someones favourite, or at least one he likes of mine, so it definately makes it worthy of a place here. It is just a cat illustration that I did when I was doing a disney brief at college :) Cat is making a love spell that smells really good, I coloured it to.

Tomorrows agenda....suicide mission at its finest!
So thats a big fat lie, well part of it, the title suggests something quite exciting, I can assure you, it really isn't, not at all, but I'm excited.
So........I bet you're just dying to know what it is, ha. Doubtful, but anyway, I have just agreed to run round the park tomorrow at 5:30, which is fine......I have to say though, I have already been booked to run round the De'Vere at 6:15, which put together is around 5miles, 2 more than I have only just managed to do without stopping! OH MY GOD! what have I done...
Well the challenge has been set now, so I must do it, and I will feel amazing if I manage it, so I gonna try my damnedest. If I haven't blogged again by tuesday ring the authorites, I may be dead. In fact scratch that, ring Misty, she'll know where to look.
I'm sooo dramatic, I'll prob be just fine, at best, I will do it and be chuffed to bits with myself, and at worst, I'll have to do stop starts round the De'Vere with Pete and Della and just let Misty and myself down, but at least I'll have tried.
Watch this space for updates xx
Oh and btw I have noticed my spelling and grammer seems to be back on form, I'm using capital letters and everything.
ooo, and I've just remembered, I've found my sports bra which will be way more comfortable! I just hope it still fits.

Day 26: My favourite books
Now this one I can actually answer without fumbling round some excuse, as I do read alot, this may be a loooong list, we shall see. I (apparantly shamefully) admit that I am currently reading Paul O'Grady's autobiography, which is wonderfully funny, but then I love him, and I miss Buster, such a shame.
Being the 25 year old child that am, Harry Potter is top of the list (I am sure if you know me, or in fact even heard of me, you will know that I am a mahoosive Potter geek). I'm not sure which is my favourite book, the first had to be amazing, because, well it's the first. But I think the Order of The Phoenix is prob the best for fight scenes, shame the film really didnt live up to the book on that.....they tried, somewhat.
My favourite author is actually Raymond Feist (which reminds me, I think he has a new book out that I don't have). I have read (and own) nearly all of his, and theres alot, they all relate somehow, apart from all being set in the same world, characters appear in one set from others, even if they are hundreds of years later. But then you expect that from wizardry I guess.
And finally I love The Fifth Sorceress by Robert Newcomb, more magicy stuff. It's soo good, and really graphic in places. Its the first one of a trilogy, and all three are amazing, and I'm pretty sure there's a second trilogy that carries on the story but I'm struggling to get them, or at least I was last time I looked.
Well I think thats a pretty comprehensive list, there are more, but must not bore people I guess.
On a side note, I feel dreadfully hungover today, which is all kinds of bizarre seeing as unless someone spiked my 37p bottle of lemonade last nite, I havn't touched a drop of alcohol since friday night. (Maybe all the wines and martinis that I wasn't going to have has caught up with me).
Until the next....goodbye :) x
Oh, and I think this may be a good post to say.....I do believe in dragons....

Day 25: A letter to someone you judged by their first impression
Yes I can count, I didnt like day 24 so decided not to bother, and its my blog, so I can do what I want.
So, todays blog, hmm. This is actually quite hard, and for as long as I can remember I try to give people the benefit of the doubt and not judge them by first impression, I guess I hope that people will be just as forgiving with me, because I know that I am not my best all the time,so neither are others, its only fair to give people a chance.
Well, im barely into this post and already failing miserably.
Oh well, I think I'll leave it there and just admit defeat on this one, I am soo rubbish at times. Maybe tomorrow will be better.
However, I am having the most excellent week, and its not even finished yet, so I can cope with failing on this one :)

Day 23: Share your favourite tune
oooh I have many. I go through phases and I will generally have a couple of songs at one time that I will just play on repeat until I hate it. At the moment its 'Guy what takes his time' and 'Something's got a hold on me' from the burlesque soundtrack, but thats mainly because I can dance sexy(ish) to one, and the other has words which are fitting for me at the moment. However I do have some songs that I always love and always go back to.
I love this, I just do,
I also love Fishermans Daughter from the Waifs, I get bored of it from time to time and pick another favourite, but I think its my all time fav of theirs. unfortunately I dont think theres a good copy of it on the net :(
Wow, I could list loads, 'Famine' by Xavier Rudd, 'Good Excuse' and 'Zebra' from John Butler Trio.
I also love this, this version only, I find it very touching. (only need to listen till about 2mins 15secs)
Im sure theres many others, but this is the list for now

hello again world
teehee, not been on here for a while, iv not kept up with the 50day challenge, i do fully intend to get back on that.
I am pleased to say that I am well and truly over the looser that obv thought I wasnt worth fighting for, its funny, he always used to tell me he loved me, but words mean nothing unless backed up by actions, so thats all they were, empty words. I just need to get my stuff back, I want my cane, i love it, and he has it, bah humbug.
I am also very pleased to report some big achievements of the last seven days. I graduated today, passed my degree, with honours with a 2:2, couldve done way better had I applied myself and not had a massive fight on my hands trying to prove that I was brilliant, and not just mental, it went unnoticed needless to say. (actually, maybe i am more mental than brilliant, but hey dont piss on my bonfire)
I also ran race for life last thursday, well i jogged it, but ran the whole 5k (a little over 3 miles) without stopping, even drank some water while jogging, and didnt chuck it all down my front, so thats a bonus. I hope my nana is proud
I also weighed myself this morning, dads scales say I weigh abou 9st9lbs so im going down, woop woop.im on my way.
Generally, life is looking up at the moment, i have a date on friday (I know, whitwoo) and feel it deserves a mention as the victim reads my blog, or has read it at least (dear lordy). To be very fair, im suprised hes read this and still likes me, but hey, stranger things have happened at sea. He did say he cant cook....maybe he just wants me for my cookery skills...hmm :)
oh, and i drew a logo for a friend and he likes it, he didnt ask for it, i just saw the mostrosity that one of his friends had done for him and thought, damn i could do better than that, so i did...go me
right i best be off, iv left myself hardly any time to make myself look pretty for tonights celebratory events.
Over and out, love and hugs xxx
ps, spelling, punctuation and grammer has taken the day off today :)
