So This One Time I Was On A Channel My Grandma Could Find

It didn't end up getting picked or winning a prize, but it's put me in the gameshow mood.
I think I'll try out for more quiz shows, maybe daytime TV will be my thing?

Dr Who Glasses


Picked these up at Dimensions last weekend :)

The gameshow I was down in London for a few weeks back has started airing this week. The episode Danny Gogo was on should be on today.
Did I get picked too?
You'll have to watch and find out!

Don't Mind Me, Just Travelling Through All Of Time And Space!

Halloween Soup


Pumpkin and blood orange is kind of an odd mix, but it's actually pretty nice.

Possible Wedding Venue


A few nights ago we went to a Wedding Fair at Castlegate

They had the place decked out as it would be for a wedding

The tables at an actual wedding would match, though they wanted to show off some of the different ideas they can use

I really like it, though we have a few more places to look at.

Deep Dark Fears

I found this tumblr a few days back, and reading this plus it being the month of October has prompted me to write about my own fears.

My biggest fear is loneliness. 
When I was eleven I was bullied at school, it went from name calling to physical bullying very quickly and the teachers didn't really do much to stop it. 
I started skipping school and ended up getting put in "Alternative learning", which was basically a small room where they shoved the people who were skipping school, the kids with learning difficulties that weren't getting the help they needed and the kids that were getting suspended a lot. So basically they put the bullies in with the bullied and a bunch of computers. Weirdly enough very little happened there, we just played Zombinis all day, although I do remember a guy once loudly announcing that his dream career was to be a mafia porn star, and that there was another guy who used to set things on fire, he was actually ok apart from the setting things on fire thing, he died a few years later and I'm still pretty convinced he was murdered, as I know that the person with him at the time he died used to bully him, and said guy has been in a shed load of trouble locally since, but it was decided at the time it was accidental.
Alternative learning would try and phase people back into going to regular classes, and one day I was sent out into the regular school yard. I was trying to read a book when a girl who had been one of the people who used to beat me up beforehand grabbed my tie and tried to strangle me, this time a teacher did step in (who I found out a few years back committed suicide, which really upset me), my throat was bruised and when I got home my mam decided enough was enough and pulled me out of school. From then on I was home educated.
I tried to call a few of my "friends", but nobody returned my calls, I found out a few years back when I found a bunch of people on Facebook that when I left a rumour had circulated that it was because I was pregnant and so that was why nobody wanted to talk to me.
Because of this I felt alone and isolated, I had nobody to talk to, while it may have saved my life it lead to me becoming incredibly awkward around people, I still have issues socialising with people I don't know that well because of that time in my life.
I never want to be alone again, so I try to awkwardly collect awesome people to keep around me at all times.

Date Night Yummys


We went for Peruvian food last night

I've not had Peruvian food before, it's difficult to describe but delicious

This dish for example is Itallian spagetti with Japanese style stifried vegetables, brought together in a unique Peruvian way, and it was delicious!

Tom Lehrer - I Hold Your Hand In Mine

Updating a Classic


I'm quite liking the new On This Day thing on Facebook, yesterday it reminded me that in 2009 I made a sketchbook out of sandpaper, I decided to have a bit of a play around with one of the scans of the cover of it in Pixlr and ended up with this.
