Yours is the light by which my spirit's born: - you are my sun, my moon, and all my stars - E.E Cummings

Hi there, people of the internet!

I thought id do a blog post on stuff thats happened over the past few days!
Im going to start with monday!

On monday, we went to Moo's for Sean's birthday and we had a BLAST!
It was great! Me and Megan drank vodka and cider, (not together obviously) for pre drinks, we played ring of fire, this acdc drinking game, called thunderbolt, and this game called sausages.
ACDC game: You start playing the song, and people take it in turns drinking,  the person keeps drinking until the next time the song says thunder.
Sausages: You ask a person questions, and they have to reply with sausages, no matter the question. If the person laughs, theyre out.

We then headed to moo's. At this point, we had lost everyone so it was Emily, Ellie, Megan, Hannah, Ryan and Me. We all pretty much ran to the club, no idea why. We all  got very, very drunk and made friends with people. After leaving the club because we had lost everyone, Eric, Megan and I parted from Ellie and Emily and went on a really shitty tour of Cheltenham.
Lessons from this tour:
Dont take a hipflask full of straight vodka out with you
Dont accept piggybacks from Eric. To be fair, I was told it was my fault, I didnt grab hold of him, so I went flat on my back. The only thing I was worried about was my hair though.
After the piggyback failure, we all went stumbling home and made chips, which were THE BEST THINGS EVER! Eric also did this really fabulous magic trick, which his dad showed him.
I dont think id have been that impressed if I was sober, but if you know him and you get drunk around him, ask him to do it! It will blow your mind!
The next day was PAAAAAINFUL! We all had hangovers from hell, and to make things worse, we had to edit our viral video and when you dont listen in lectures, it can make things a lot worse.
I started editing with a headache, stared at a mac for 3 hours, and had a worse headache. It was hell.
However, we did get it finished! I'll upload it onto here if I can!

Friday was one of the best days ive had in uni thus far, I think.
I MADE A ROAST! With a little help from Hannah!
It was the best meal ive had in uni, and im so so proud!
Probably couldnt have done it without instruction from Hannah's mam either!
Later on that evening Ellie, Ashley, Daniel and Ashley's friends from America came down and we got drunk again, I literally dont think ive been that drunk, just drinking in the flat. We played chandelier, ring of fire, and beer pong.
We got drunk off watermelon vodka which was amazing! The photo to the left is like my favourite photo ever, with the best people ever, just FYI.
Saturday, we went to the park because it was really sunny, and people need fresh air when they have a hangover. We went and looked at the bunnies and chickens. It was the best.
We also went to the park today, but Emily made me sad by talking about my favourite band so im not really going to go into detail on that.

Thats all that's really happened this week, except its mothers day today, and mother, I love you a lot.You're my best friend and an amazing mother, and I wouldnt be who I am without you.

Ok, Thats all for now.
TTYL,
Kirsten x

My first time.

0

Hi there, people of the internet.

I know what the title said, and it is very misleading.
What im really going to write is about first times that arent as sexual as that!

First Best Friend - 
My first best friend was a girl called Rachel. We met in primary school and we were very close up until I went to uni. Unfortunately, we aren't as close as were were. But shes a lovely girl.
First Kiss -
My first kiss was when I was like 15 or some shit. I had a boyfriend around that time and we kissed outside some hall after a gig he did. (He was a guitarist.) It wasnt the best kiss ive had, but it was the first, so.
First Concert -
My first proper gig was a band called Blue. They were literally my first boy band experience and I loved them. The concert was freaking great, they came onto the stage climbing down a robe, and Lee Ryan noticed me. It was fantastic. They then split up after they finished the tour and it broke me heart.
First Celebrity Crush -
My first crush was Orlando Bloom, and i swear I still have the most massive crush on him ever.
First Word - 
I literally just text my mum and she said it was "Muma"
First Pet - 
It was a boxer called Lucy, she was so cute.

First Job - 
My first job was a Sales Assistant at House of Fraser, in a food hall. It was my favourite and I was there for 4 years. I legit miss it so much.
First Phone - 
Like everyone, it was one of those nokia bricks. Literally only had one because my mum didnt trust me without a phone during high school!
First Tweet - 
"only just got twitter and has no idea what to do on here!"
First Make-Up - 
It was probably eyeliner, or mascara! That was the only thing i wore during high school!

Thats it. 
Thanks for reading. 
Megan, Hannah, and Emily, you're up!
TTYL,
Kirsten

Why do I do the things emily tags me in?

0

Hi there, people of the internet.

So, earlier today emily (http://www.something-like-Emily.blogspot.com) 
Tagged me in a post whereas you have to pick 5 people you would want at a dinner party of yours. Fuck you em,

So, like Emily, I have been pondering over whether I want to use people I know, or famous people. I decided to use famous people because it's more interesting and I know who I would pick. 

For my first guest, I would pick


Alex Gaskarth. From his twitter, I reckon he would be laugh. Like, he wouldn't give a shit what people thought of him. He's also gorgeous so I could perv over him😊

My next guest would be 


JLAW. Just literally because she's fucking awesome.
My next guest would be


Jay Mcguiness because he's my favourite person ever, and I would give anything to be in the same room as him at the moment.
Next up,


Zoe Sugg. If people don't know who she is, she's like the biggest female British youtuber at the moment. She has been called an inspiration to young girls ever and she's actually my fave. She's pretty fabulous and hilarious.
Lastly, I would have someone like super obvious. 


Obama. I don't think I need an explanation why I would have Obama at my house.

I don't actually know what I would cook. I'd have to go full on come dine with me, and make like bruschetta, and like, nibble shit for starters. Curry for mains, and trifle for dessert.

That's it.

On a SUPER sad note, Austin and Jazmin left today, and I swear to god I Havnt felt this sad in a while.
If you read this guys, it was such a pleasure knowing you, and if you don't come back and see us then I will come to America and kill you.

 

Love you guys :-(

That's all for now.
Thanks for reading. 
Hannah and Megan, it's your turn

I am never drinking again, ever.

0

Hi there, people of the internet.

I thought i'd tell you about my week/weekend.
This week we (Ellie, Laura, Emily and I) started one of our assignments for Sound and Screen.
We basically had to film a 1 minute video that we would want to go viral.
We chose to do a propaganda type video for a flappy bird helpline, and seriously I have never been more happy to know film students because I swear if Hannah, Eric and Stephen hadnt been there we would have tanked for sure..
And a MASSIVE thank you to our actors, Ryan, Hannah, Eric, Megan and Munya. Ryan even got wet for his part, which was hilarious.. He actually got into my shower fully clothed and turned it on.
Honestly though, im dreading having to edit this shit though. Its going to be so difficult. But its almost done with though, which is a massive relief.

Sunday night, Megan, Eric and I decided to get drunk. God knows why, seeing as we all had work to do the next morning.. but it happened. It was the weirdest thing ever. We played a really shitty game of truth or dare.. Megan coloured my leg in, I had to do a shot of vodka, Megan got tied up and had to wear my socks on her hands.. They were only recently put on though, so it was all gravy.

Tuesday, it was Shrove Tuesday/pancake day, and we all did a pancake night which was fabulous. We all bought a shit load of stuff and just stuffed our faces with pancakes. Like, we have savoury and sweet pancakes. This night ended in disaster though, because I dropped my phone into a pancake covered in nutella and cream, trying to stop Eric deleting a photo. Of course, this ended up in tears of laughter and i cant hear out of the speaker properly. We also played this game where the person has to write the most random sentence ever, and the piece of paper goes around the group and it varies between pictures and words. Its fantastic.


Friday night was the most interesting night of them all. Megan and Eric came down to visit and I showed them Cardiff nightlife with Hannah, Shannon and Jenny. From what I can remember, it was a great night. I was wrecked though. DONT NECK YOUR DRINKS. Eleanor, Zoe and Brad also made an appearence at one point aswell, but we didnt see them much. Ellie got kicked out for pushing a member of staff, the dumbass. The next morning we went and did touristy type things through the hangover. We went to the Doctor Who experience which was absolutely amazing. I touched John Barrowman's and Matt Smiths coats, while receiving dagger eyes off Eric and being told not to touch things by a worker there. It was totally worth it! Took them down chippy lane and bought them welsh cakes because neither of them had tried them before, and Got them lemon curd welsh cakes aswell because Megan had never tried it.

The sun is actually shining for once. Although I spent my day inside, because im shattered and im achy as fuck because i spent my night wandering around trying to give drunk people flyers for Tiger Tiger.
Im excited to see what next week has in store for me..
Im definitely going to do some work.. (maybe) but Hannah, Shannon, Danni and I plan to go to coopers field and just chill there for a day.

Thats all for now,
Thanks for reading!
