Shit happens

You know, the saying ’shit happens’ is a load of crap. Stuff happens that is not what you were hoping for, and you take a pessimistic view of it. You see it as being shit, the worst possible thing to happen, but it’s not.
Take a look around you. If you have a place to sleep at night, a family to look after you, friends that you can trust, nothing else matters.
So what if one person does something that upsets you? Don’t dwell on it. He’s a fucking twat anyway, and to tell you the truth, he’s the most selfish person I’ve ever spoken to. Hypothetically, of course.

If people could see how much they hurt someone, maybe they’d stop. Probably not though. You’ve just got to move on. Go outside in the fresh air. See your baby brother who is always asking you to play with him. Speak to your mum who loves you very much. Call a friend and arrange to go out.

That’s what I intend to do.

FutureMe.org

Hi :)
So yeah. I want you all to go and check out this site (http://futureme.org/). It’s where you write to your future self. They save what you wrote until the date selected when they email it to you.
I’ve just written one which I intended on posting here, but I clicked send and forgot to copy it and I can’t figure out how to see what I wrote. Ah well XD

Twitter and Omegle

Hihihi.

I am pretty much addicted to Twitter. I used to think it was completely pointless, (“isn’t it just a shite version of facebook?”), but it’s immense. I am constantly on it :P Also, I added my twitter onto the side, over there somewhere —>

Okay. Another website that I’m loving at the moment is Omegle. Go google it. It’s basically a chatroom where you get paired up with a random stranger and can talk to them without exchanging any personal information AT ALL. No need to sign up or anything XD

Methinks you should all go and check out these sites ;)

KTHXBI.

London

Well, today I took my little brother to London. He’s been loads of times before, but I thought I’d take him to see Buckingham Palace and Downing Street, etc. His name’s Joe and he’s gonna be 9 in August. He’s at a weird age where he refuses to stand still for more than about…3 seconds. Anywho. I figured since I never do anything for him, I’d take him out.

I have a problem with trains. I have to get on the train as soon as it comes in otherwise I get paranoid that it’s gonna leave without me. My brother, on the other hand takes after my dad (my dad worked on the London Underground for about 15 years) and is really comfortable around trains and likes to get on right at the end of the platform meaning we had to walk a really long way. I figured – me being the oldest and all – that I would just force him to get on with me near the end and that would be that. Apparently not. Joe decided it would be a good idea to run to the end of the platform by himself, leaving me to chase after him. Jesus that boy is fast. So we finally got on the train, made it to London unharmed and feeling okay, got off and made it onto the streets, we realised it was pouring down with rain. Great. I figured we should do something inside until the rain stopped – whilst my brother was saying ‘Hello, poops’ to passers-by – so we headed to Trafalgar Square to go to the national art gallery, the only free place I could think of XD So we enter the gallery, and Joe immediately tells me how bored he is, but I soldier on, proud of myself for thinking of this XD Take one look at ‘Sunflowers’ by Gogh, decide we could do better and leave.

By this time we’re quite hungry, so we go off to find somewhere to eat. Btw, I love street entertainers. They brighten up my day XD Zizzi has nice pizza XD Then we went to Buckingham Palace. We decided to see who could make the guard talk to us first. It started off with just waving, quickly progressing to us shaking our heads disapprovingly at him and then finally my brother started yelling at him. I decided it was time for us to quickly leave :D We went to the big statue climbed it and then went to see the horsies XD Let me tell you, they were pwetty XD I stroked it and had a picture taken with it too XD But zomg, this guy with a sword came up to us and I got really freaked cause I thought he was gonna attack us.

So then we figured we should go see 10 Downing Street even though you totally couldn’t even see number 10 from the gates. Laaaammmme. We had to ask the policeman, who was quite good looking, to tell us where it was. Psh. Sooo not worth it. Also, Westminster Palace was a waste of time – not allowed in to see the Prime Minister apparently :/ So yeah.

Was a good day really XD I shall now leave you with a typical ‘Joe’ moment:

Joe: What’s a pleasure boat?

Me: What do you think a pleasure boat is, Joe?

Joe: A boat you pleasure yourself on?

KTHXBI.

LiveJournal

Hey XD

Erm, I just got a livejournal account because Liam decided it was a good idea (so that he might actually have a friend over there :P ).
Is there some kind of rivalry between the two sites? Hmm, I don’t know, but either way I’m gonna post a link to my LiveJournal.
To be honest, I expect I’ll post more here, but anyway. LIVEJOURNAL.

I finished all my chocolate yesterday. -cry-. Until next year…. =P

I’m also finally postitive that I’m gonna be able to see Taylor Swift. I’m so excited. Going with my best friend and I’m also meeting up with a few people from the internet when I get there XD

And with that bombshell…okay. I need to stop watching so much Top Gear.

KTHXBI.

oooh, it’s easter.

Well. Technically yesterday was Easter Sunday. Shut up :P

After 3 Easter eggs and a packet of easter eggs I’m feeling quite sick, so I’m saving the rest for later XD My dog rejected his easter egg. -cry-

I got Taylor Swifts album yesterday. Yay. I’m a bit annoyed that half of the songs on it are from the first album, but she’s gotta do what she’s gotta do, so I’ll get over it XD

I’m totally getting back into graphics making too, which is cool XD Yesterday I made three sets of icons – here, here and here. They’re a work in progress though, so shhhh.

Speaking of graphics, Sara just made me an amazing header which I’ll put up as soon as I figure out how :P Oh, and brooke made me this: Happy Easter

You can see alll of her graphics here – GO LOOK!

Oh, and Sara’s graphics – HERE

KTHXBI.
