I love my friends

0

What uppppp!

This evening has honestly been the most perfect evening and one of the best birthdays ive ever had.
Hannah and Megan decided that they were going to suprise me for my birthday and I was well and truly suprised.

They had booked a table at Harvester for me because you know, I love me a bit of Harvester.
Emily had came back from Birkenstead to act as a detour for me so I would stay away from Regency for a bit. Of course, I'm a stubborn bitch and it didn't quite go to plan. Em and I got to the restaurant like 45 minutes late (sorry guys)
But honestly one of the nicest things someones ever done for me. I was reduced to tears within something like the first half hour.
First of all, at my card.





I mainly cried because of Hannahs message, which basically said I was like her best friend and her sister.
This is very unusual for Hannah to say as she is a very unexpressive person. So to hear her say that stuff warmed my heart. The other people said crazy lovely things aswell..
except Eric the cock, who basically called me old.
Emily then made me cry a bit more by saying that, although I was a clumsy idiot, I was a lovable idiot. Also I was the mum of the group. Damn girl.

The meal went on with the waiter calling me birthday girl constantly. Emily crying constantly, and then me crying at Ryan.
The only thing that could have made it better was if the film students could have come.
They were behind like 3 hours on their shoot which sucks, so they had to stay in uni!
Honestly, when Han walked through the door, I jumped on her!
She then came back in with my birthday present..

Which, again, i freaking cried..
If people know me, then they know that Peter Pan is my favourite Disney film.



Megan then came in with her gifts



She gave me a necklace with the word "okay?" on it..




 She also got me dish cloths.. which are an inside joke. The tag says "towel" (please re read my blog to get the joke)
and a duck shaped soap from Avignon, in France.
I also got two 21 birthday badges, one for each boob.
They also got me a red velvet birthday cake, which is my favourite cake flavour.

Thank you guys! You are the best people ever!!! Im going to add a bigger thank you to Han, Ryan and Meg for all the effort you made!



Thats all for now.
Im probably going to update tomorrow aswell, seeing as ive gotta do my other blog post which is attached to yesterdays!

“If you have good friends, no matter how much life is sucking , they can make you laugh.” P.C Cast

Hello :-)

So, I think I mentioned in my last blog post that I had finally finished my first year of university. I would like to say yay, as thats what my usual reaction of finishing an academic year would be.
However, I'm sad.
  1. I'm leaving some of the most amazing people I have ever met for 2/3 months.
  2. It went too fast.
I went back to my first blog posts, where I described said people. Although I still think a lot of these opinions about these people, I think and care about them a lot more than I ever thought I would.
In said blog post, I said Eric was "the quietest flatmate" I had.. AS IF.
I thought I would do another one of these blog posts.
Like I said, I care so much about these people, and I'm pretty sure I would do anything for them if they asked.

Here goes:

Hannah:

So, in my first blog post I said that Hannah was like my uni best friend. I dont think this now.
At all.
Hannah is like my sister. 
A sister that I love very dearly, even if we dont see eye to eye all the times. She's going to be the hardest to be away from this summer. She stops me from doing stupid shit the majority of the time, and for that I cant thank her enough.
E.G. I fell off a set of monkey bars this week and hurt myself pretty badly..
She sat on the floor with me until I was ready to get up.
She then asked me every day how I was.

Most friends, when hungover, or injured would be like "aww babes!" Her reaction usually would be "You're a dick and its your own fault" true friend right there folks.




Eric:

He's still the flat dog. 
I dont even know what to say about Eric because honestly, hes stayed the same throughout the 2 semesters, except I care a lot more about his welfare than I did at the beginning of uni. I've also done so many of these soppy posts about him in the past few posts that I dont think I need to write any more about how much he means to me.
Hes one of the nicest kids ever, and you would be so lucky to have him in your life.
Such a clutz, he'd probably have you in tears the majority of the time.




Ryan:

I think Ryan is one of the nicest people i've met since coming to uni.
"Wedding boy" is no more, and is probably known as the mong, and "Jay" for all intents and purposes (inside joke)
I honestly wish I could put some of the stories hes told us while here, but I fear he may murder me in my sleep, the creepy shit.
You know that saying that
"normal friends would be there comforting you when your hurt, best friends would be at your side laughing at you" well Ryan used this quote to describe his and my friendship the other day after falling over, and its probably quite true.
He was there wetting himself while I was being part of the floor, and Eric still cries thinking about it, the bastard.
I couldnt wish for a better friend in him I dont think.

(Ryan, don't you dare quote this paragraph back to me you shitface.)




Ellie:

"CDIFF TILL I DIE"
If I could put Ellie back in the shell she came out of, I would. LOLJK.
Ellie is so freaking hilarious! And such a great friend. I probably would not have got through this year without her.
Im so blessed to have met this girl. The amount of nights out we've had and I've had to stuff the Cardiff back into her because shes almost started fights and what not is ridiculous! HOOLIGAN.
I'm also so so SO glad im living with her next year. Its going to be a blast.




Next blog will involve non regency people and americans.
I just want to say thank you to all the people that made this year fantastic. I love you all.

Thats all for now.
TTYL,

10 days

0

Hi there, people of the internet.

This blog is about the passed week and the next week.

This blog isnt really going to be about the passed week, just the stuff that was interesting
I got a few marks back from assignments that I handed in, and I cant decide whether im happy about them.
I got a 2.1 in the video that we made about flappy bird.

which im preeeeetty buzzing about.
The rest im not sure about.

Last night, we had the GENIUS idea to play hide and seek within 4100 and 5300. It was hilarious up until some cocks decided to lock the doors in between.
We then got our make up done by Eric and Ryan, then Hannah and I done Ryan and Eric's, much to Erics dismay. Ryan, however didnt mind having it done.

ITS MY BIRTHDAY NEXT WEEK!
I will be 21, which is a naaaaaassssty thought.
I dont know whether to be excited or upset.
More upset seeing as my mumma is coming up to move the majority of my stuff back to Cardiff seeing as my semester is over for the summer. But more to the point, the Americans are leaving 2 days after.

Its going to be so hard, especially as I wont be here for it.
I think theyre all planning on doing an all-nighter. Im going to miss them all so much.
Hannah also put a horrible thought in my head as we walked to Wickes to pick up pipes for their film.

After June the 6th, theyre all going to be moving out, slowly one by one. And I wont see the majority of them till September.
2 days later, Hannah and I realised we are basically each others mothers and I dont know how im going to go 2 months without having her stopping me doing silly things, or vise versa. Im going to miss her quite a lot.

Eric and Ryan is also going to be hard, especially Eric because we're not living with him next year. Its going to be weird not being able to wake him up at stupid o' clock in the morning and him walking out with his hair like super messy and him like half asleep.
#ericsadick

Now onto said Americans.

Theyre leaving on the 24th, and because im going to see McBusted on the 23rd, I wont get to see them leave, which honestly breaks my heart. Theyre like, the most lovely people ever, and I cant imagine having to go next semester without them.




Ok, I reckon thats enough being nice now.
TTYL,

"The planet is fine, the people are fucked" - George Carlin

0

Hey there.

I decided to do this whole 5 books or films that have changed my life. However, I might tell you whats been going on in my life over the past few weeks.

I have been ill.
Like, really ill.
Stressed ill mostly.
I have been sad, and angry.
And drunk.
Very drunk.
To the point where I nicknamed Eric, the towel.
So if you see him around, please call him it.

This week, ive had like 5 assignments due in over the passed 2 weeks, and its almost all ogre.
My last one is due in tomorrow, and its my marketing pitch and portfolio. My drunken nights havent been that great. I was either really drunk, or not drunk enough.

Im bruised as fuck though. My left arm, my right ankle. BRUISED.

Ok, so next is my 5 books/films.

1. 13 reasons why.

This is a book, and its amazing. Its by Jay Asher and I recommend everyone read it.
Its about this girl who kills herself, and makes tapes with 13 reasons why she did it.

2. P.S I  Love you

Its my favourite thing ever, book and film!

3. Fault in our Stars.

I cant even wait for this film. The book is fantastic, the film looks great.

4. Dirty Dancing.

Favourite film also.

5. Peter Pan.



Thats all I can be bothered to write, at the moment.
When I have no work, I will write a proper blog.
TTYL,

Girl talk.

0

Hello there, people of the internet.

I thought i'd do a blog on the "girl code"
for people who didnt understand what that was.
There is about 10+ rules that is required to be kept in tact when they are friends.
As a lady, who tries to stick to these rules as much as possible, I expect the respect back.
In only going to put the rules that are most important to me.


1. No hating on other women we do not know.

- This is very important but I do NOT stick to this. If you know me, then you'll know i break this rule quite often, for certain reasons people would know. Sometimes, its just necessary to hate on them. Like, whether its judgement or plain hate, it just needs to happen. It shouldnt, but it does.

2. Figure out you're friendship group's "man rules" before shit happens.

- This is super important to me. I feel like, if a friend who has had a relationship, or been with a guy doesnt want you to get with said guy, you shouldn't! I don't give a flying fuck if you like him or whatever, you don't do it. Its just basic instinct. Like boys you fancy in a club or whatever, if someone "dibs" a guy, then don't break that dibs, that guy is said girls. Its very easy to break this rule, its just as easy to break a friendship because you've broken this rule. If you value your friendship, stick to it.

3. Truth.

Truth within a friendship is honestly so important. If someone wants to know something, then tell this. This doesn't always have to be gossip, it could just be if they ask "does this look ok?" if it doesn't, then tell her!

4. If your friend needs a cock block, then be there.

I have many times when a cock block is VERY necessary. In fact, I have my very own cock block. Emily. If you feel like your friend is going to make a huge mistake, or that your friend doesnt look that interested and the guy is persisting then jump in to save her!

5. Break ups.

If your friend breaks up for gets heart broken, you best have tea, ice cream and tissues at the ready. I would class you as a super bad friend if you didnt.


Ok thats it.
Short one, I know.
But :-)

TTYL,

“I don't have pet peeves like some people. I have whole kennels of irritation.” - Whoopi Goldberg

0

Suuuuup people.

I went home last week for the first time in like a month and it was amazing. Basically, the whole of last week I was feeling run down, and just plain ill. It was quite sad to see really because im hardly ever ill..
So I went home and chilled for 4 days, I saw Hannah and Shannon, sat in the park and took the insults they threw at me.

I also finished Bob's essay, which im so happy about because now I can just focus on my other essays instead of worrying about getting everything done in one mad rush.

I came home on Tuesday and caught up with Emily, which was great because I missed her a lot! Honestly, since we came back, the majority of my time ive spent with Emily in uni, trying to make her do her work.
One night we spent skyping her friend Hannah, which was nice because shes a Kingsland fan.

Megan came home on Thursday, and was in the kitchen when I got back from uni that night. I screamed and hugged her. I may have squashed Eric in the corner behind the door in excitement. She brought me back Macarons from Paris which was lovely of her. Then Laura came back today, and ive missed her a lot aswell! Its nice to have my buddies back, although I cant wait to see Ellie, Hannah and Ryan.

On a more sour note,  ive been feeling a bit pissed with life, and certain things lately for reasons which I dont want to discuss. So, I thought i'd do 10 things that piss me off with life.

1. Selfishness
Ok, I know everyone has their selfish moments, which is totally fine because people need to think of themselves sometimes, but a lot of the time, its unnecessary!
2. Lickasses
Some people to remove their heads from others asses, because it gets so boring to watch.
3. People that dont pay attention.
I have to admit, I am one of these people, and it gets on my own tits, let alone other peoples. But even if people are talking, like at least give them the time of day!
4. People who leave other people out.
Dont be dicks. Theres other things in the world, more important than things that you think about..
5. Self Centred people
There is NOTHING worse than people that dont know how to talk about anything other than themselves.
6. Similarly, vain people
People that think theyre God's gift and deserve everyones attention are massive douches.

I cant think of anything else right now,
but these types of people realllllly grind my gears.
To the point where i want to rip my eyes and ears out.

Thats all for now.
Next week will be more interesting.
Thanks,
Kirsten x

Those who dance are considered insane by those who cannot hear the music - George Carlin

0

Hi there, people of the internet.

So right now, i'm sat in my bed thinking of things I can do because I'm not tired, and i'm feeling a HELL of a lot better than yesterday when I thought I'd had tonsilitus.
So, I thought i'd do a blog post.
However, not much has happened since my last one. Ive been a bit unwell, but thats mainly because ive been super stressed. I came home, and so far, ive seen my mam, my nan and brother, and my lovely lovely best friend, Hannah.
Also, 2/3rds of the way through my biggest essay, achievement of the week!

But anyway, today while I was thinking of things to write in my essay, I made a new spotify playlist for when I was working, it is called "cheese."
Cheesy, old music helps me work, gives me a bit of oomph when im bored and dont want to do anymore work.
Everyone loves a bit of cheesy music, whether its something old that people dont want to admit they love, or something that used to be good, but nobody listens to anymore.
So, thats when I thought, I could do a blog about 15 of my favourite cheesy songs. Bit boring, but whatever!
Might bring back some nostalgia to some of you lovely sods who actually read this shitty blog! :-)!

So, here goes!

1. Blue - One Love

Blue were my first boyband love. I had the majority of their albums, and I swear I was in love with Duncan. Of course, true to form they did a reunion and theyre worse than ever. But their old music was fab! I'm afrad to say I can also probably do atleast 70% of Simon's rap!

2. Westlife - World of our Own



 This song has so many memories attached to it! Its a classic and the memories to it are very good. Im not going to go into them because effort, but! I wasnt a massive westlife lover though, so this is probably the only song from them that will pop up!





3. Alphabeat - Fascination


I know this song probably got on EVERYONES tits when it first came about because it was so overplayed, and that guys dancing is stupidly overexaggerated, and so annoying. But once you hear it after not hearing it for so long you instantly love it again. I completely forgot about Alphabeat till the other day when this song came on in work, and it took all my strength not to burst out singing. Its one of those songs where you just want to dance around in your room singing into a hairbrush thats being used as a microphone!

4. S Club 7 -  Bring it all Back


I used to love this song, and still do. If any of you have seen me in Oceana and S Club comes on, any song will do! I just completely go for it. EVERYONE LOVES S CLUB 7! You cant even deny it! Like back in the day, everyone had their favourite member, and their favourite song! Mine was either Jo or Hannah! Favourite song was either this, or Never Had A Dream Come True! And obviously, seeing as I get very fixated on things, I had to have the DVD/video tape of Seeing Double, which I still have by the way.

5. Natasha Beddingfield - Unwritten


No back story for this song! I just really used to love Natasha Beddingfield! Thought she was an amazing singer, and loved all the songs she released.

6. Ronan Keating - When you say nothing at all


This song will always and only remind me of Notting Hill. Not the place, the film. When Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts go in the park at like 12am, and you can tell that they're starting to fall in love. If you havnt seen that film, then im not apologizing for spoiling the plot because you should have seen it! Its such a beautiful song and definitely one of his best songs!

7. Lily Allen - The Fear


Whenever I sing this around Hannah Williams, she honestly starts reeling off facts about the song and what Lily Allen says in the lyrics. Im pretty sure this was one of my summer anthems the year this was released. Always brings me back to high school days whenever I listen to it.

8. Sugababes - Ugly


This song has a lot of meaning for me. When I was younger, and even now sometimes, I'd listen to this song when I was feeling a bit sad, or a bit shit and it would always make me feel better! I think it was the same with all of Sugababes song's to be honest. I was a bit sad when Mutya left!

9. Shayne Ward - No U Hang Up


Shayne Ward took up the best part of my high school life. I was obsessed with him for like 3 years! Bought all his albums, posters, tour tickets. The lot! Sad I know! I did ask to be a fan girl. But you can see the appeal, he is beautiful.

10. Five - Everybody get up.


A couple of these songs including this one, can only be traced back to Oceana, and I apologize profusely for this. But this song will always remind me of Hannah, Shannon, that bloody disco room and trying to get people to slut drop with us.

11. Backstreet boys - Everybody


This is another one of those damned songs from Osh. Except thats not all. Reminds me of last summer, babysitting Jennys little brother when this came on music channels and her trying to do the dance, which includes the little floor bit.. it was quite funny!

12/13 - Busted - Year 3000, Mcfly - 5 colours in her hair



I put these 2 together because they have now made up the super group "mcbusted" these had to go in there because if you didnt hear me crying with excitement (metaphorical) im going to see them the day after my birthday with Hannah (Cardiff hannah) and my  inner child is crying with excitement!

14. Avril Lavigne - Sk8r boi


If Avril Lavigne wasnt a huge part of your childhood then you were either seriously deprived as a child, or just had NO taste whatsoever. This song is great, and Im pretty sure I can recite the words.

15. Take That - Rule The World


Take That need to be on anyone's cheese list whether its new Take That or old Take That. This band is the only band that was constant while I grew up and, I love them. Seen them twice before and I WILL see them again. This is also my favourite song of theirs.

Thats it.
I hope people enjoyed that trip down memory lane.
Im going to turn this into a tag, and ask Emily, Ashleigh and Hannah to do it!

Thanks for reading!
TTYL,
Kirsten x
