December 2011
Obligatory end of the year post.
So 2011 eh? What a year, what a year. Gather round kids and I’ll tell you all about it.
No I’m joking - I can’t bring myself to write something so irritating. The main lesson I have learnt this year is to rely on myself. I realised a few months ago that I don’t pay enough attention to myself and need to get my priorities straight, which I will do. I’m trying not to...
Last night I dreamt that I was the director of ‘Bend it like Beckham’ and decided to replace every character with men that had wonderful chuckles. I won an Oscar even though the film wasn’t even about football anymore - it was just shots of laughing men.
The postman woke me up at 8 this morning (he only ever turns up at 8 or 2. How inconvenient) and presented me with five...

lol what if I actually “dyed”
hahaha oops! That was an actual mistake as opposed to a moment of quirkiness.
I was in the shower washing off my hair dye when I got to thinking, what if I did actually die from attempting to change my hair colour?
I would like my obituary to say something like, ‘Megan died because she had a moment of vanity. What an idiot.’ (followed by a play on dyed and died just because that would be amusing).
Then all the free hair dye my parents receive from suing Loreal...

I am in SUCH a bad mood.
I hope noone talks to me for the rest of the day because I will eat them if they do. Also, it’s really annoying when your sisters say ‘OH YOU CAN SHARE OUR PRESENT’ then change their mind so you have to go shopping AGAIN because they change their mind. So now I have nothing for my grandparents.
And my headache is absolutely just making me grumpy. I am NOT IN A GOOD MOOD.
Oh...
I told my mum my hair dye had arrived and in return she told me about all the people who had dyed whilst dying their hair recently. She then ended the conversation with, ‘So if you’re dying your hair and you start to feel a bit funny, phone an ambulance because a minute can make all the difference.’
How very light hearted.

My hair dye remover has arrived. IT IS TIME TO REMOVE THE RED.
Sadly, my headache has also arrived. So maybe it’s more just time to go back to bed.
My sister is a babe:
‘set your alarm for ten because then you can make sure you get an episode of downton in before breakfast’
This reminds me of when I was so into mad men that we’d actually put episodes on after nights out regardless of the fact that we were too drunk to remember what happened. Oh first year.
This post is turning into an essay because I can’t sleep and...
The worst thing about getting a high score on a game is that after your initial pride, you know it’s going to be even harder to beat it.
This is one of my favourite photos of myself (in a none vain way). One of my favourite places, with one of my favourite people and one of my favourite jackets. I was so happy that week.
I finished series one of Downton.
Oh my goodness. It’s very hard for me to stop myself going straight onto series 2. I LOVE IT. I hate so many of the characters though. The number of times I have yelled at my screen, ‘GOD GET A LIFE’ and so forth is ridiculous.
Anyway I’m all drugged up on cough medicine and such so I should really get to sleep now I suppose. I hope I can sleep and don’t end up...
This is going to be a bit of a rant.
I have absolutely no problem with my sister’s being ridiculously talented when it comes to music - it’s fantastic. I’m proud of them and I know they’ll probably end up dead famous or whatever, but I swear down if one more relative asks how their music is with complete disregard to me then I am going to blow my mind.
I know I’m...

can we get overly dressed up please ? head to somewhere cultured/different (relying on you for radical ideas). either that or spend an entire day (i mean at least 6 hours) in a coffee shop with prime sofa seats in the comfiest clothing we own.
Let us do both. We will begin in a coffee shop before...

despite my undying love, it is unfortunate that i am unable to make thursday this week. i would like to prove myself as a worthy lover by asking you out on a date next week sometime, so we both get the start of the most wonderful new year together.
I would enjoy this immensely. I shall...
Last night was bizarre.
Here’s a text I set whilst in the midst of being ill:
‘I know in properly ill because i thought i was a victorian doctor but then realised I was the patient and said to myself sweat out that fever! The shoemakers daughter will live! Then I made a hot water bottle but no no don’t look at the swing set outside. That’s where the lonely ghost lives. Poor lonely. Sneeze...

I may read a book about werewolves to boost my self confidence.
I feel horrific.
I’ve been up for hours getting more hot and cold than Katy Perry’s hit song. I’m possibly a little delusional right now so I’ve been playing the Victorian doctor and shook my head before saying ‘give the girl a chance to sweat out the fever!’
Then the nurse side of me set about getting extra pillows and sheets so that ill me can get better.

I don’t even usually react so much to tv so I can only assume you exploded when you watched it.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Downton Abbey is AMAZING.
AMAZING.
I have hit my point of maximum socialisation. When this happens I need to a) take a walk or b) take a nap. If my mum found me taking a nap she’d probably tell me off, whereas with a walk I can find an excuse - ‘oh sorry, I just really needed to buy a dog for entertainment purposes’.
This will work. I need me time. I have a headache.
Playing video games with my cousins. It’s relatively funny because we’re all short sighted and so most of our time has been spent with us screaming, ‘I CAN’T SEE, I CAN’T SEE’. The winner (in most cases) has been my cousin with the best eyesight. This is unfair.
I really want to go for a walk because I’m boiling. I wonder if I could get away with it?...
Set Fire to the Rain
Today I’m playing the relative game, in which I do things like say ‘HELLO!’ with a bit too much enthusiasm and talk about university as though all I ever do is study, ‘Yes! I love university! LEARNING IS SO MUCH FUN!’
When asked if I have a sore throat I’ll say, ‘Yes! I’ve been studying so hard that I didn’t notice I was ill!’.
Fun fun...
Downloading amazon for my phone was a terrible idea. Now whenever i get the urge to purchase, I don’t even have to get my laptop.
Stupid tempting books draining my bank account.

Here’s a video of all the people I live with. I love and miss them. What baaaabbbeesss.
I love this video so much Megan. I love my bit, I don’t understand the music.
Oh it just turned up on my itunes like that funky Russian music and it made me think of you because you’re dead mysterious and remind me of the desert.

is this ironic ?
haha yes - don’t worry!
I’m taking myself for a walk. So romantic. I wish I was going somewhere to get drunk. I’m going to spend the next half an hour formatting my ipod so it’s a delight of sounds.

I'd love to be flatmates with Avril Lavigne:
1. Everytime we went out together I’d ask her who she was with so she’d have to say, ‘I’m with you’. If she was in a good mood maybe she’d even sing, ‘I’M WITH YOUUUUU’.
2. I bet she sings really funny songs in the shower.
3. We could put pink streaks in our hair and then giggle because we’re rebels.
4. When she came home crying...
In a few days I’m having a drastic hair colour change and it’s actually going to be successful because it won’t just be me layering dye upon dye and getting frustrated because my hair is still red. WATCH THIS SPACE.

Then I went downstairs to get a sandwich and asked my mum if she enjoyed it. She replied by screaming a spoiler in my face. NOW THE DRAMA WILL MEAN LESS TO ME BECAUSE I WILL KNOW WHERE THE CHARACTERS CURRENTLY STAND. For goodness sake.
However she did feel guilty enough to make me a chicken sandwich. Fair is fair.

Christmas Doctor Who was beautiful.
Everything about it was just completely spot on. Exactly what I wanted from the christmas episode.
I’m currently tidying my room. I told myself that christmas was a no go on work/chores, but when I get into the mood to tidy, I have to do it or else I won’t feel this way again for a good few months. It’s like a curse. Not to mention the fact that I couldn’t physically move...
I just snuck off and took a cheeky nap.
Noone noticed I was gone. I don’t know if I should praise my stealth skills or feel offended.
I wish I was a cat. My nap defs would have been better if I was a cat.
