Summer Term

First day of the summer term -back at uni.

*sighs*

Can't be bothered. I'm going to go and sit in the sun until the hayfever makes mince meat of me. And revise obviously. (Once again, by 'revise', I mean 'read for the first time').

Edit: high five everybody who made 100% effort for the summer outfits. I totally regret wearing tights today. Although, if you have horrible feet, please consider the public before breaking out your sandals, and if you do insist on wearing such articles of footwear, make sure they FIT your feet and your toes aren't hanging over the edge. one word. EWW.

My morning commute

I actually hate, with a PASSION, anyone who makes me move my (wet - it's raining) bag onto my lap WHEN THERE ARE OTHER SEATS AVAILABLE. This guy didn't even ASK, he just sat on the chair nudging my bag with his fat arse until I could put down my coffee to move it. Mr, you are taking the piss. I don't care if you've got a hearing aid and you breathe like a heffalump, there were seats closer to the freakin door and I don't WANT to get my trousers wet or put my bag on the dirty floor.
Come on... It's not hard to understand. Just don't sit next to me.

Edit: and I wanted to eat my cinimon swirl but I CAN'T because my lap is piled with damp coat and bag and I'm trying not to spill my coffee, and Mr Hearing Aid is breathing tar and nicotine spores all over me. Not risking it.

CAR WASH!

Just washed my car for the first time since I've had it (nearly 3 years).
(Other people have washed it, like my mum and my bro, and the mechanics when it has it's MOT, but I'm too lazy).

Reason for previously unprecendented action?
So I don't have to revise (read for the first time) Villette by Charlotte Bronte.
(400 something pages of nothing exciting...)

It was all ok until my mum squirted my face with the hose. Then I got huffy. And it wasn't fun anymore.

10 things you'll regret when you're 40

GENIUS...

Top 10 things from your 20s you'll regret when you're 40
(those pink words are a LINK - click them!)

Actually, they're quite obvious. But. Meh. It made me smile.

Things mentioned include:

• piercing plugs
• tattoos
• risque internet pics

Seem like the REALLY obvious ones, but there are more. Worth a read. Go read!
I, personally, liked the writing style of the author. Spoke to me, it did. And it made me laugh :)

Yeezy on South Park

I, for one, actually love Yeezy. He is easily recognisable as a huge part of the music industry (commerical and the urr-ban) and through his producing as well as his own records he has somewhat altered the sound of youth today. He is a bighead. But so what? It's entertaining!

Plus his blog is SICK!

Taken from the BBC news entertainment article on Kanye West's comments following his featuring on South Park:

Rapper Kanye West has said that he was "murdered" in an episode of animated US show South Park, but found his negative portrayal "pretty funny".

West, who was shown as out-of-touch and self-centred in Wednesday night's edition, wrote on his blog that he had been "working on my ego".

He added that he was sure the South Park writers were "nice people in real life", and said it was an honour to be captured by the show's animators.

Yeh... SURE!

We all know that, secretly, Kanye West is PISSED he got slated!

He posted his reaction to the episode on his blog - [click here to view]

But, I don't believe him. He's more pissed than he makes himself out to be. Trust me.

Although... it IS nice to see that he realises that:

"AS LONG AS PEOPLE THINK I ACT LIKE A BITCH THIS TYPE OF SHIT WILL HAPPEN TO ME. I GOT A LONG ROAD AHEAD OF ME TO MAKE PEOPLE BELIEVE I'M NOT ACTUALLY A HUGE DOUCHE".

It probably is time to stop acting like such a twat, but we know that some twats are successful (e.g. Simon Cowell, Gordon Ramsey, Alan Sugar [SAS -lol]) because of their intelligence.

It seems to be all relative when you're famous.

Bah! Well, Yeezy, I still love you :)

Transformers

In light of the second installment of the EPIC Transformers, out this summer (YAY!), I managed to finally get my brother to witness the brilliance of the first film last night. So, last night, me, Pher (my bro) and my boyfriend sat down to watch la masterpiece.

I never actually got to see this film in the cinema (I KNOW, SHUT UP) because of work committments and friends that can't keep promises (lol), then when I got the dvd I wanted to wait until I could watch it on a big enough screen to do it justice. Well worth the wait. I KNEW i would love it, definitely my type of film. I've watched it about six times in the last three months alone.

A fact which baffles my brother.

Pher: "Why do you LIKE this film?"
Moi: "WHAAJUUUMEEEEAAAN?!"
Pher: "It's a BOYS' film!"
Moi: "NO IT'S NOT!"
Pher & my boyf: (simultaneously) "Uhhhh... Yah, it SO is."

Now, I sincerely doubt that the Hollywood peeps behind this film made this film SOLELY for men and boys. It's not logical in a money-hungry industry. It's not a "boys' film". It's not. It's not. It's not.

But just to double-check...
Things I like: (in no particular order)

• soundtrack
• cast (Shia LeBouf was a GENIUS choice, as was the Defense Secretary guy and pretty much EVERY character)
• hot woman
• other hot woman (who is slyly hotter than Megan Fox - yeh I said it!)
• sound effects (deserves it's own bullet point)
  
• the actual transformations that the autobots make (hence, why I also said sound effects)
• SFX in general
• the colours (particularly Bumblebee and Optimus Prime - they look so COOL)
• the storyline
• how the autobots choose the first (hot) piece of automobile to imitate
• bumblebee (he's such a HERO! - I wish my car could transform and be my bodyguard)
• Optimus Prime's voice (played by Peter Cullen from the original series - his voice alone makes this film epic!!)
• Bernie Mac
• HUUUGE fight scenes
• the comedy (it's a well-written script)
• location
• etc, etc.

You get my drift.
Are these boyish things? or unisexual things?

It's not a "boys' film". It's not. It's not. It's not.
I am a GIRL and I like it.
So there.

Can't WAIT till the new release!!
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHH!!!
(See, told you I'm a girl)
