Toes in the water, ass in the sand…

I literally post on tumblr once in a blue moon. I miss posting, perhaps life has become boring. Anyway, tonight a house party I wasn’t exactly motivated for has turned into a great time (so great I’m sitting alone on the internet) with a mix of old and new friends I’m having a wonderful time and feeling lucky to be alive. In conclusion, the world is not a terrible place and the white people problems I frequently experience are eclipsed by the wonderful life I lead… thanks.

Farewell!

Ok so I am flying off to Texas again tomorrow morning and I haven’t had the chance to say goodbye to everyone! SO goodbye!!! I’m gonna post on a tumblr while I’m away, a separate one, can’t have my grandparents seeing the swearsys. Hope you all have a wonderful summer and good luck with exams and i’ll see you when I’m back in September!

Name two alternatives a woman may have to abortion :-

1) Put the baby up for adoption.
2) Have the baby then have it killed.

My sister’s response to a question in her R.S exam. Worryingly she was being perfectly serious…

I’m living in my neighbours house for the next few days and looking after their dog. LOOK AT HER!!!

People who talk on the phone at the till…

I’ve noticed something recently with people I meet in day to day life. Especially in work. The world seems to have gotten a lot grumpier. People seem to want to provoke arguments, talk down to others and belittle people. I’ve had a job in some shape or form since I was 16 and up until the past 6 months could’ve counted the amount of rude people I’d met with my fingers. Now I seem to encounter them on a weekly basis! Maybe life has just gotten more stressful. Flash a smile to a stranger and make their day, stop being such a grumpy cookie!

Despicable me - “It’s so fluffy I’m gonna die!”

No little girl, I’M gonna die, from cuteness overload!

My Valentine’s Day was spent babysitting my bosses 4 year old with a girl from work. It was actually A LOT of fun. We took her across on the ferry to Exploris (the greatest underwater adventure in Co. Down!) and had a great time!

Castle and Beckett. My current obsession.

For months I’ve been told about this “phenomenon” of a film. It, along with the other two in the trilogy, seems to have sparked this mass buzz in the space of only a year or so. I know the books have been international bestsellers but the films themselves have been hugely popular. I think this is even more surprising due to the fact they’re in Swedish, it’s not very often a film which requires subtitles or an English dub actually does well in the box office. I decided to watch it tonight after dozens of customers telling me how fantastic it is and it genuinely lives up to the hype. It’s a Saturday and I have a Haagen Dazs so I watched it with the dubbed version. Now, I haven’t actually read the books so I can’t compare, but I think the film is absolutely first-class. There’s a real grittiness to it which is something very common in European films. There’s no fear of nudity, some of the scenes are extremely graphic and others are nothing more than the actor sitting alone. There’s very little action or explosions, just a fantastic story being told. I would definitely recommend starting the trilogy. Hollywood now has it’s hands on it and will no doubt release an action packed, polished blockbuster…
