FAVOURITES WEEK PT 1! DEARVICTORIA TAKEOVER

(I know this is like two days late but still)

Hello Internet People!

For part one, as promised, i've drafted my guest blogger DearVictoria in, to do another faves post on my blog! It's not the first time i've joined forces with this babe and it won't be the last, so i hope you like her! my favourites will be coming on Sunday, because i need to think of a new one seeing as Vickie stole my first favourite! But yeah, so this is what she's been loving recently;

Vickie's Faves:
Happy Thursday Internet People! Tom has asked me to do a little favourites post for him so I figured I may as well open like he does, makes me feel a little more at home here.

#1
Jumping right in there, my first favourite is the lovely place in which I live. My humble abode. It's the absolute perfect place to go on a gorgeous little (or long) walk and despite what people may think about villages being small and boring, they're really not! Where Tom and I live you're in walking distance of 4/5 villages easily, if you don't mind a good trek with stunning views. We get all of this and we're an okay distance away from the big city - perfect!

#2
My second favourite thing is probably going to be the gym, mainly as I've been spending most of my free time there over the past few months. I joined PureGym in February and haven't (yet) looked back. It feels really good to be working towards my goals the healthy way rather than using faddy crash diets.
If you know me you'll know I like to keep everything a little short and a little sweet so I hope you all had as good a spring as I did and I really hope I haven't ruined Tom's blog for you all!

Don't you just love her? vickie is just adorable, and on her blog this week, she's doing Rant week, following in my footsteps, so if you want to see what's been grinding her gears, click the link here!

If you like the thought of doing a collab week with some of my favourite bloggy friends (Tanya that includes you), let me know in the comments or on twitter! Next week's theme will be revealed in Sunday's post so stay tuned, and remember, i love you all! x

RANT WEEK - APRIL / MAY EDITION PART 2

Hello Internet People!

If you haven't read part one do it here, but if you have seen it, i can imagine you know what you're in for. Let's get to it then shall we?

4) EUROVISION & HATE
Okay, so this may seem like two different things, but it really isn't. I love Eurovision and i watch it every year, because its always a good watch, and to be fair the artists this year really delivered. There were some novelty acts as per usual, but the serious ones were actually rather good; like Norway, Finland and Azerbaijan to name a few. The stand out this year though, was Conchita Wurst - Austria's utterly fantastic drag queen, who performed her Bond-esque 'Rise Like A Pheonix' which i am obsessed with. it was by far the best song i'd heard on the night and it deserved to win, but when i looked at the youtube comments below the music video, well i was infuriated to say the least. The amount of hate the poor guy's getting from homophobes because he performed on stage as a 'she' is unforgivable and it really shows the truth about how Europe really see LGBT people. The thing is if she hadn't had a beard, this whole thing would have been much less of an issue i'm sure, but why is it that people think they can dictate whether other people are wrong or right? we are all human, we are all equal so why should there be all this hatred? when someone commented that they 'had to change channels because they couldn't allow their kids to watch', it really got to me. please people, wake up and smell the equality! we are literally the same as you, even if your kids watched it, it's not like that'll make them like her, we don't have a choice in who we are and it's about time that it's recognised.

5) FAMILY
So, my brother has decided to move his room around, and that means that he's moved his bed. let me paint a picture for you - he has a large room that mine is attached to as we share a wall that is literally paper thin. he used to have his bed on the opposite side of the room to me and that meant that i couldn't hear him so much when his mates are around (which is always). i have the smallest room in the house and it only has enough room for my bed and a door. so now he's decided that i can no longer have any personal space because he's now moved the bed to against my wall. I mean, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? he has the life of fucking larry and i basically have Harry Potter's fucking room so he's bang out of order, yet still he wont move it back. Also, my parents have stopped buying healthy food and now seem to only buy things with enough fat in to kill you, so yeah that's fun. I'm sick of this house.

6) GUYS
I haven't been out in ages but i feel it still applies - have you ever been on a night out and someone hits on you and doesn't leave you alone? it is just fucking ridiculous, i mean no matter how drunk i get i won't change my mind about you so can you not just fuck off?  it's worse when they keep inviting you back theirs, as if you'd go back with them anyway? When all you want to do is get drunk and dance to songs you hate with mates and you spot a freak practically masterbasting in the corner of the room while looking at you, it ruins the night. Also, the other day (not naming names) someone i was having a friendly chat with dm'ing on twitter decided to turn the mood of the conversation on its head with the three words 'are you horny?' -it's 7 in the evening and i'm with my parents watching TV, but yeah of course i am let me just drop my pants for you right now and send you a 'dick pic' because you voluntarily sent me one of your tic-tac dick to my mums phone i was using for the day, that i only gave you the number because i thought we were mates. NO MOTHERFUCKER, JUST NO. By doing that they just ruin the nice chat we were having, the friendship we had and also nearly flashed your dick at my mum. Fucking guys.

But yeah, that's the end of this month's rant week, i hope you enjoyed it, because i don't wanna be doing it once a month or so if you don't!

Not everything lately has been so shit, and next week i'm going to be doing Favourites Week and i may have some guest bloggers sharing their fave things from spring with you too!

let me know what you think about this week and next week's theme in the comments, or on my twitter and maybe tell people who you want to see guesting on here in the future? :) Love you guys! x

RANT WEEK - APRIL / MAY EDITION PART 1

Hello Internet People!

You probably hate me right now, because i've been such an infrequent blogger, but it's a new month and a new chance for me to get back at it!

So, if you are new to my blog, you wont be aware that most things that i post consists of me complaining at one point, and you've probably joined us at the right moment! the last few months have consisted of so much crap i can complain about, so i thought that maybe i should concentrate all of my rage into one or two posts, once a month or so and get it all out of my system. WELCOME TO RANT WEEK!

1) MY LIFE.
So, if you don't follow my twitter yet (do it here now, or else!), you wouldn't know that my life recently has consisted of sitting in my room and watching films. This really isn't a good way to use my time and i'm so incredibly bored almost every second of the day. ever since i deferred from uni, i've been sat around the house and gaining weight, and im fucking sick and tired of it. in a previous blog i said i was planning on getting healthy, but that aint happening when i have no money to go to the gym and the weather's always shit, and i refuse to run in the rain, my hair takes half an hour to do so fuck letting it get wet. fml.

2) THE FUCKING WEATHER
If you live in America or down south and you don't understand what i'm talking about, well let me fill you the fuck in. I swear, in my life i haven't seen it go from warm sun to heavy rain and thunder so quickly, until a few weeks ago, and guess what? it's been happening almost every day. i am sick to death of going to the shop and ending up soaked, or getting ready to go for a run and the second i leave the house it starts raining. it's nearly summer and i swear to god if it stays like this i will kill someone. okay i may be over exaggerating but you get my point.

3) MUSIC
y'all know i love my music so i'm sure this will be a surprise to you when i say this, but music is probably the number one thing to piss me off recently. okay, i've got to admit, in terms of dance music, the recent releases such as Shit k3y's 'Touch' and 'Nobody To Love' by Sigma have been exceptional but when it comes to the release of pop songs... lord give me strength. Firstly, who the fuck invited the worlds number 1 twat and part time simon cowell look alike, Robin Thicke back into our headphones? I used to respect Jessie J until she paired up with him and another forgetful talentless DJ to come up with this horse crap. Luckily for them, they were outdone by the worst song of the decade by the walking sack of eye make up and reget, the Canadian mistake, Avril lavigne! what a load of old bollocks this 'Hello Kitty' song is, and it honestly seems like she's that desperate for material she'll take it from anyone. i'd go on about her, but the really isn't anything more to say about her than this - RETIRE AVRIL, DO THE WORLD A FAVOUR. Anyway, to sum up the rest of the musical mistakes, i just have to say one name - Jason Derulo. Is it me or are all of his songs the same?

Right that's it for part one guys, if you like rant week, let me know in the comments or on twitter and i'll do something like this more often! thanks guys, i love you!

PS, THANKS FOR STICKING WITH ME!!
