I had an awesome last week!! on friday I started off on a treck to some unknown town to do a music video for So Solid Crew, im not a fan of them at all but I couldn’t resist the opportunity for a credit that big so early in my career. So I set forth and had to get there for 7am, Woke up at 4, got the earliest tube at 5:26 and than an hour long train. It was a creepy little ghost town with bus stops but no bus numbers on them, it was really strange. eventully I found my way to the location after walking around franticly for 20 mins. Got to do the makeup of quite a few models, touch ups and all, but the biggest credit to my name is that I got to do Lisa Maffia’s makeup. Not too impressed with her personality, lol I googled her solo career yesterday yesterday and that didnt look too hot either. After a 14 hour shoot, barely any food, 3 and a half hours sleep and not being able to sit down I dragged myself home, crashed and woke up early the next morning for another exciting job.
Saturday there was an event called the ACS Kings and Queens event, sponcered by MTV once again, there were quite a few models so we were called down on that disgusting hot day at 1pm. Surprise surprise we were’nt needed until 6ish, so we wasted all day there just mucking around. On our lunch break tho me and Hollie (Best friend/makeup artist) saw a petshop on our way to the Oceans Music arena where it was held, so we decided to run to tesco, grab some munch and look at the pets. I don’t recomend going into petshops unless u’ve got money on you, it’s TOO damn hard walking away empty handed. We say a sign that said they had kittens so we thought we’d ask. Hollie got the most gorgeous stripped tabby, he’rs is a month older but sooo cute and SO play
ful, it’s AWESOME. I got a cute but slightly timid black and white kitten! it took it a few days to warm up to its new surroundings but its been almost a week now and it wants to play with ful force! Toy of choice: Shoe lace lol. I named mine Ling Ling, after that pokemon type character in ‘Drawn Together’ and now to introduce the world to mah kiat!
In other news I chipped my tooth again =*( it’s getting fixed tomo…

You’ve probably heard by now that the legend known as Michael Jackson has died. He was our generation’s Elvis Presley. The world mourned him and for a moment, he stopped the internet. That’s how awesome he was.
Here’s a selection of stuff stolen from the web. All tributes to the man the with the moves.
Mental floss writes up a few interesting facts about his life.
Apparently MJ is to be plastinated and placed next to his pet Bubbles at the O2.
Remember the inmates who all danced to Thriller? Here’s the send off.
A clip of AMAZING performers that clearly inspired MJ’s crazy moves.
MJ patented a shoe design that enabled him to lean the 45º for the Smooth Criminal Dance!
OMG! MJ is a gamer.
MJ likes what he looks like and doesn’t have to change at all. Somewhat ironic in hindsight, but I have to say the backdrops are stunning!
Concept product from a fan to Pepsi? What do you say? Do we like?
A selection of images from across the internets
His Life. His Words. Rest in Peace Michael Jackson.

Some things to keep you amused…
Evening, children!
I may have been granted entry to the magical wonderful world that is Scribbledwall only yesterday, but, I am going on holiday tomorrow for a week to Ireland so I feel I should do a quick post to share some funnies with you! You know, to tide you over till I get back!
So let’s get started then!!
Do you remember all that hoo-hah about the mosquito tone? No? Well, it was that high pitched noise that only youngsters could hear and businesses were using it as a deterrent to keep teenagers from loitering near their shops. Want to see if you’re a young ‘un or an old fogie? Check it out here! I personally can hear them all but the 18kHz one (the highest one) is just averagely audible to me whereas the rest are loud as hell! And I know it works because as I was testing it out, I clicked on the 18kHz one and just about heard it and my younger sister (sitting across the room, may I add) shouted at me for playing something so ear-piercing!!
As we are having some crystal weather at the moment, as much as I hate the heat and the sun as a pale freckly girl, I feel I must take moment to think of the real sufferers in this weather. Goths. This blog, aptly named ‘Goths In Hot Weather‘, chronicles them in photo form as they cope in the hot, sunny, summer months, rating them on ‘Gothiness’ and ‘Sweatiness’.
Any of you know the internet meme ‘What Is Love?’ with the headbobbing guys? Well here it is in its full glory! CLICKY HERE!!! Even if you don’t know the meme, it’s a hilarious video featuring Will Ferrell and Jim Carrey from Saturday Night Live in the 90’s.
And finally, some funny pics to top it all off. =D
I might update you during the week, I might not, but either way, I will return next week!!!
CIAO!!

Why, hello there. You may be wondering who I am. I’m the newbie here! ORLY?YARLY!!NOWAI!!!
This is my terrible attempt at an introduction, I’ve never been good at introducing myself. I’m seriously considering looking for my Year 11 tutor profile so I can just quote what my tutor Mr Lewis said.
Hmm. Well, I’m a kooky one. You’ll learn that one quick. I am an enigma wrapped in a conundrum, wrapped in a pretty, pale and freckly skin.
I’m a photographer and astronomer but lack both a crazy camera and telescope, but I know exactly what ones I’d get if I had the money! I make do with my little camera and super binoculars! I love stars, both the space kind and the spiky drawn ones. You should check out this NASA website. Everyday they put up a new space related photo.
I <3 Nintendo. I <3 Yoshi. I <3 games. I’m a girl gamer and when I feel crap, I will retreat to my room and play some Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on my N64 or Pokemon on my NDS. Also, I do enjoy the MMORPG wonder that is World of Warcraft. For the Horde!!!
Hmm, what else… I like cake and biscuits and anything generally cakey or biscuity. Muffins, cheesecake, custard creams, christmas cake, Jaffa Cakes, doughnuts, sponge, gateux, chocolate digestives, cookies…. The list could go on. Now I’m hungry.
It’s taken me far too long to type this. So I will leave you with a pic that makes me happy. I <3 LOLcats. Yaaaay. Expect more randomness in the very near future!! Rawr.
