Tourist Guide to the Internet

Helloooo!
I said I would do one today, and here I am, true to my word! It's a Christmas Miracle everyone! (except in my head that was said in a really enthusiastic slighly southern American accent, which I now realise may not have conveyed as well over the internet as it would in real life, but, such is life...) I am here today to talk to you about the wonderous miracle of the...INTERNET *cue angelic choirs and such like*

See? Niall agrees! (courtesy of imgfave ;D)

The internet is amazing...I mean, don't get me wrong...I do enjoy doing stuff with my friends, and talking to people and such...and occasionally if I am forced, and there is very minimal excercise involved I can quite enjoy being outdoors...but, given the choice between that and no internet ever again? I really want to say the internet, but I also don't want to seem like some antisocial freak...but...the...ummm...yeah, I'd choose the internet.
The internet has everything I could ever need, and so much more! The internet has social media so that I can communicate with people. I can go to school on the internet and learn things. I'm one of those people who thinks of really random things, and then asks people the answers, and most of the time people don't know the answer...but the internet would know...the internet knows all. The internet can teach you how to make things, how do do things (such as dance or play instruments or put on make up so you don't look like a cheap stripper, or it can teach you to put on make up like a stripper if that's what you need. There is an endless supply of entertainment int he form of movies, TV, music and books, as well as bloggers and vloggers to keep you entertained. Obviously, there are also the darker reccesses of the internet to which I do not venture, but some people do, and that's how the internet makes them happy. On the internet you can find people who like someting that you would be shunned for liking in real life, but on the internet anonymously, it is fine to love those things, and you can meet people who like it too, and all be happy together. Also, and this may be the most important role of the internet: the internet is home to millions upon millions of...CAT GIFS!!!
Is there nothing the internet can't do?
Now it's time for another list! (This is the part where you wave your hands int he air and cry "yaaaayyyyy!!" ...just btw.)
This is a list of things that you should deffers visit while you are visiting the internet.
Tourist Guide to the Internet
If your stay here on the internet is only short, here is a list of the highlights as decided by me: Em.

Charlieee!

Charlieissocoollike
Charlie was on ym list of Hot Celebrity Guys (please refer to previous two posts for full list, Charlie is on the second though...), but he's more than just a pretty face guys. This is his video blog (also known as a Vlog to those in the know, which obviously I am ;D) He's really funny and clever and adorably akward, and his vlogs (well some of them...) actually teach you stuff...like about science...it's educational guys...deffers check him out...I meant his vlog guys...jeez. :P

One of my favourite posts ;D

Hyperbole and a Half 
I'm sure that anyone who has spent much time on our wonderfully majestic internet will know of the "___ ALL the ___" memes, but how many of you know where it originated? Well this is where, on this wonderful little blog by a wonderfully clever, funny, talented artist and blogger. Sadly she hasn't posted in a while because she got depression, but hopefully she will get better and begin posting again, but in the meantime, go back and look at her earlier posts- laughs guaranteed :D





imgfaveThis is literally just a site where people post pictures. But they are really good pictures. There is nothing innappropriate, and lots of quite funny ones. Since we started going on imgfave Ang (my best friend) and I will ahve conversations, a large portion of which will consist of "oh, hey did you fee that picture up last night? The one with the monkey and the ferris wheel? Hilarious right? hahahah..." When we go on, we send the links to our favourite ones to each other via Facebook...it's kind of addictive, but it's good, because we don't both always go on every night, but at least one of us will go on pretty much every night, so we can get the highlights ;D

Michelle Phan...obvs.

Michelle Phan 
This is where the applying make up to not look like a hooker comes in. The lady is AMAZING. not even kidding, the stuff she can do with make up...wow. I can only hope that one day I can apply my make up as well as she does. And have as much make up as she does for that matter... if I ever want to learn to do something with make up- this is where I look first...
 
Coolmath Games Okay, I know what you're thinking...this site sounds really lame, why am I showing it to you? Is there actually something wrong with me? Why would you want to play math games? But homestly, most of the games on here have nothing to do with maths and are really fun. My personal favourite is Papa's Taco Mia, but Sugar Sugar, Sticky Ninja, Primate Pile up, the list goes on...just pick a game and play! if you don't like it? just pick another, there are plenty to choose from! have fun guys!


YouTube 
YouTube in general is amazing. There is no denying it. Any music you are looking for- here it is! YouTube is like the Google of videos, and who doesn't love Google? (I'm serious- if you are using Bing or Yahoo or whatever...what are you doing with your life? Google is superior, please, do yourself a favour and Google. have you ever heard someone say "let's just go Bing/Yahoo this" no, you haven't, but everyone says "let's google that" it's a verb guys. Google wins. /rant over.) But yeah, YouTube is great...all sorts of great videos...along with some not so great ones, but you just have to know what you're looking for :P
Just some suggestions of other YouTube vloggers to check out:

Liam Dryden, just btw. (He looks like David Tennant. Watch him)

- Liam Dryden
- Alex Day
- Vlog Brothers
- Kingsley
- Ray William Johnson (earlier stuff is better)
- Paint
- Sam Tsui (actually a singer...but I really like him :P)
- Dave Days
- Tom Milsom
Some of those I haven't checked out in a while...so I don't know how good thier recent stuff is...but the earlier stuff is good ;D
- AVPM or anything else by Starkid...they're a musical theatre group who do musicals (shocking right?) the musicals are really good- good music, good story lines...they're hilarious :P AVPM (A Very Potter Musical...geddit?) and AVPS (A Very Potter...Sequel!) are realllllly funny...a must watch for any Potterhead...or anyone really :D


Obviously there are many many other places to visit ont he internet, and if you've managed to find this blog, I reckon you must be a pretty seasoned internet user...The internet is an amazing place, but always be careful. I have an IT officer for a father, so I know how important it is to keep your personal details personal. If you don't want people to know something- DON'T PUT IT ON THE INTERNET!! Someone will find it eventually. And possible employers are now looking at what you ahve up on the internet...so you might want to make sure that there's nothing up that would stop you from getting a job...just sayin'.


The most important thing on the internet though, as always are Cat gifs. seriously. love those things. I'll let you have another one, because you've all been so good ;D
Here you go:

Now, I'm going to bed because I am tired as I stayed up late writing this...
Nu Night!
xoxo


P.S. there probably won't be another post for a week- I'm going away and will probably have limited internet access...I know...don't miss me too much :P

Pinkie Promise

Sorry it been so long!!!
I will do a post tomorrow, I absolutely 100% promise!!!
Here's a Cat gif as an apology:

Okay, that was actually really hard to choose...I ended up going with my friend's favourite...she laughs so hard, everytime :P
Cat gifs are amazing...I have probably more than I should...but, they are just so good! I mean, cat YouTube videos are fine, but you have to physically restart them over and over, gifs however just go and go and go...it's great...I love Cat gifs ♥♥
Anyway. Tomorrow. Pinkie Promise!!
xoxo

Part Twoooooo

Heeeyyy ;D

So guys, sorry this is late...again. I should really stop promising to do stuff at certain times, I never do, and then I ahve to start of posts with apologies and it just sets the whole thing off to a bad start, so lets start again.
Hi guys (apparently you don't exist again, I had someone reading for a bit...but not anymore...poor me :P ) how are you? Imma continue my list of hot guys now...because I am cool like that. I'm realising now how much of a ditzy air head I must look like to anyone who reads these...I'm not! I swear! I just appreciate attractive males too- there's nothing wrong with that. So, last time on the list we had: David Tennant, Matthew Lewis, Niall Horan, Darren Criss and Aaron Johnson (btw, this entire list is in no particular order, it's just as I thought of them...) so lets continue shall we?
The list continues:

Brendon Urie
Brendon is the lead singer of Panic! at the Disco, which when I do my music list (so many liiiiists :P) you will obvs hear about because I really really like their music- bothe early stuff from before the band split and the stuff since then when the band became Just Brendon and Spencer Smith. I didn't like Brendon's look back at the beginning so much though- to overly emo-ish for me, I like his look now though. He is HOT. that's about the best way to describe it. He's also an amazing singer and guitarist- which is way sexy. You should check their stuff out if you haven't already- good music and hot singers- who wouldn't want to watch? ;D

 


Matt Smith
Matt Smith is the current Doctor on Doctor Who and he is great. He is really quirky and adorable and attractive. He may not be the most attractive guy on this list, but his adorable quirky fun-ness make up for it. I mean, come on guys- he wears a bow tie and suspenders and is the lead in one of the best TV shows, what more could you want from a guy?




 
 Gaspard Ulliel
My friends introduced me to the Gorgeous Gaspard. He is a French actor, but he also acts in not French movies and has a perfect English accent. He is also the face of one of Chanel's men's perfumes (not only gorgeous- but he smells great too! ;D) at first I didn't think he was that good looking (I know, what was wrong with me?) but his hair really didn't look good in the clip they showed me, but then I saw him elsewhere, and well, I realised my folly and apologised profusely to my friends :P


 

Josh Hutcherson
It wasn't until recently that I realised that I'd thought Josh was hot when I was about 13, I had just thought that I'd seen his attractive-ness this year- I'd always see him in movies where he was little, and that would just be weird. But then I realsied that I'd seen him in "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" (not the best movie ever, but very amusing when you have the cinema to yourelf and you can talk as loudly and you want and laugh and yell at the screen :P) and my friends and I ahd come out of the cinema and gone "hey, that guy was kind cute". Now though, he is more than cute- he's a full time resident of babe-ville. Aaaand, not only is he super duper babin' he also acted as one of the best parts in a movie of one of the best books, he's great!

 
Charlie McDonell
So, last but not least we have Charlie. "Who is this?" you may ask "I've never heard of him before! He's not famous! whay have you put him on this list you silly girl!" well, technically you are correct. Charlie is not a famous actor or singer (he is a singer, but not a super famous one) or model, but he is pretty famous to the YouTube community. Charlie has a vlog called 'charlieissocoollike' (check it out yo!) which is a grea vlog and has lots and lots of followers and he's really cute. He's all nerdy and funny and a great singer (he has his own CD out, as well as a couple for his band 'Chameleon Circuit' who sing songs about Doctor Who and are really awesome (one of the members of the band (Liam Dryden) looks reeeaaaally similar to David Tennant and it's awesome, but he's not as famous as Charlie, so I din't think I could pull of putting him on a list of hot famous people but he is on my list of hot people :P) but Charlie is great and funny and attractive in a nerdy sort of way (which is a great sort of way if you ask me ;D)


Also, on the topic of famous attractive people- I don't feel like I can finish this post without including this guy:

Yes, I probably do spend to much time on the internet, what of it? :P (also, if you don't know who this is, Shame on you!! google ridiculously photogenic guy Right. Now.)

So, that's the list people. You may think I'm a little bit sad, but I'm okay with that, I'm totally used to it :P
so, Adios for now my Amigos!
xoxo

Please can I have one? ;D

Heya!
so, I would like to start off by apologising about yesterday's post...mainly about writing "ZOMG", but also that the whole tone of the post made me sound slightly insane...I was just excited about the zoo, okay? nah, I'm kidding...zoos aren't thaaaat exciting :P loljks, they totally are, but that's nmot why I sounded like I had eaten too much sugar :P
annyyyway...I had a great idea of what I'd blog about today on the walk home form work, I thought of witty things to say and everything...but then I forgot, so I'm just going to post about hot celebrity guys, because it will be fun and I'm cool like that :P
 seems like I'm doing a lot of lists lately- books/guys from books, zoo animals, hot celebrity guys, and I'm planning on doing one about music sometime soon too...sorry guys, I just really love lists :P so, here we go: list number 3:
Hot Celebrity Guys ;D


 David Tennant 
Okay, so he might be a liiiiittle old, and married...but still, hottest guy over 40 ever. Ever since I saw him playing the tenth Doctor, in his suit with the big overcoat and converse and his 3D glasses, I just...yeah, he is amazing. Who wouldn't love a guy who is Scottish, but can speak in a perfect English accent, just like that? He's beautiful, end of story. Also, only guy that can pull off sideburns in my opinion, and that's saying something because I can't stand facial hair, but he pulls it off...



Matthew Lewis
We all know him as dorky little Neville from the Harry Potter movies, but WOAH! what's this?! Neville is...a babe! Matthew Lewis deffers gets an A+ for going through puberty- take a leaf from his book guys: this is how you grow up. Even my brother said he would bang him- and my brother is fully straight, that's how hot he is...if only all boys could be this gorgeous...you need to pick up your act guys...






Niall Horan 
So, people (and by people I mean teenage girls :P) often argue about who the hottest member of one direction is...even my friends do it, and we're not even hardcore fans (I have one friend who says Harry and one who says Louis- obvs I say Niall :P) I'm not saying that the others are ugly, I am just saying that Niall is definitely the most attractive...The hair, and the face, mixed with the accent and the sense of humour (and lets be honest- the love of food) and the amazing voice and the ability to play the guitar...it just all works so well together to create and amazing, really hot guy...and he's only 18! I know plenty of 18 year old guys and none of them are even close to this attractive...British guys just seem to be hotter...*sigh
 


Darren Criss 
Everyone knows Darren as the hot gay guy from Glee, but I would like say that I knew about him before that, when he was in an awesome musical that he helped write called 'A Very Potter Musical' or AVPM for short. He played Harry Potter and he was Supermegafoxyawesomehot (if you watch it you'll get it, youtube it noooow) He was adorably babin'-ly dorky and his voice- well, it's amazing...there was a sequel as well called 'A Very Potter Sequel' (AVPS) which was also awesome and he was great in. So- not only is Darren really hot, he is also super awesome too, I mean, he was in a musical about Harry Potter and now he's in Glee, he's cool guys.
 



Aaron Johnson (circa Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging)
For Aaron Johnson it's a very specific time period, his now is deffers not on my list, he's really let himself go a bit...I mean really, what is on your face dude? not even someone who used to be as hot as you can pull off facial hair, and he's married to a 40 something year old chick with two daughters and he's only 20-something...he's closer in age to her daughter than he is to her...and they have kids- two I think, but maybe it's only one...I don't know...that is beside the point, the point is, that at some point in the past Aaron Johnson was really hot, namely when he played Robbie in 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging' (a really good movie btw- you should watch it is you haven't), Sex God indeed ;D

 
Well, I'm only like half way through my list, and this is already quite long, and I need to go to bed, so I'll finish the list tomorrow...
Byee

Zoo Time! Woot!

Hey,
so...I know I said I'd post the other day...but well, that fell through and I didn't...I guess I kind of suck at this consistently blogging thing...but I said I would be from the start, so don't resent me...pretty please? :3
so, anyway... what will I write about todaaay??
We went to the zoo in Dubbo for the Queen's birthday long weekend and it was pretty rockin', even though I was sick and coughing disgustingly the whole time, but still! it was cool beans...we saw some pretty cool animals like:
The Wapiti- This is like a giant deer...it's actually the largest of the red deer...these things are freaking MASSIVE...like they are huge...think of a deer, then think of it HUUGE and you've got the Wapiti...my brother decided that whent he zombie apocalypse happens (which he is fully prepared for, because he is conviced it's coming) he's going to get some Wapiti and ride them instead of using cars of whatever...which he totally could, and he's not exactly a small guy...like he is tall, and the Wapiti would still be taller...those things must be near indestructible...
 

Otterly in Love...(geddit?? ;D)

Otters- I love otters they're soo cute! there was one there that had this little pattern of how it would go around it's enclosure in order to get the most attention..it was so cheeky...it would just repeat the pattern over and over and try to get al the attention from the other otter :P then we saw them getting fed, which was adorable...these ones were the smallest variety of otters I think, though they may have been the medium sized ones, but the American sea otters can get as big as a fully grown adult..it's insaaane! Imagine a giant otter riding a Wapti! they totally could! it would be SO COOL. not even kidding...also, that picture isn't the actual otters from the zoo...I just thought it was cute, and thought my caption for it was hilarious...at least I amuse myself, right?


Giraffes- Giraffes are just cool...it's just a fact of life...we got to see them up really close, because they had them up the front for people to feed...I didn't get to feed them which was a shame, because the tickets sold really quickly and were all gone by the time we got there...but they were cool and I got to see them pretty close up, so it was alright...their tongues when they eat are cray...they were being fed carrots and they would just stick their tongues out and curl them around the carrot then bring it back into their mouths...it was pretty awesome...but as I said...giraffes are just cool, end of conversation...there were babies! they were soooo cute!! I wanted one...but I didn't really think it would fit int he car very well to get home... :P

Lemurs- The lemurs were pretty cool too, they were just chillin on their little island...the Lemurs weren't the most exciting animals there, but I just thought I'd share that we saw what looked like one lemur gining another lemur... 'oral pleasures' shall we say...it was hilarious...my brother and I stood there laughing and staring in disbelief for about five minutes...it was cray :P

MEEEERKATS!!!- so, just in case you hadn't guessed already...the meerkats were probs my favourite animal there...I'm thinking that I loved them so much that I'll do another little post about them some time...because otherwise this one would get too long, but I shall fully educate you about meerkats another time...but they are SO CUTE!!! ZOMG. :P

anyway...that's all for now...see ya!!
xoxo

Sorry!!

Sorry I haven't posted in nearly a week...I was sick, and then I went away, so I couldn't... but I'll write one tomorrow...I promise!!!
Hopefully this will make you feel better:

I just love his face when he says 'and little arms' :P
Bye!
xoxo

Why winter sucks.

Hey there...
So, it's winter here...yay. lojks. I hate winter. It is my least favourite season...but it's not even like "oh, hey, I like all the seasons- but I just like all summer and spring and autumn better than I like winter..." no. It's "I like spring and autumn, and summer's alright, but winter? No. Just, no." winter is cold, and wet, and you can't do anything cool outside and you feel like you'll get hypothermia and die if you go outside for even 10 minutes. Also I am always sick all winter. and I'm not eve one of those people who can do being sick nice and gracefully with you know nice delicate sniffles and dainty little sneezes; no. It's gross and sick and I feel terrible. fun times right?
I mean...I can appreciate it when people like winter, it looks pretty in pictures and snow is nice, but to be warm enough in winter you have to wear so many layers of clothes that you look like you've been eating nothing but tubs of Icing for the past 6 months, and if I'm honest, I'm alright, thanks for offering though...And I guess if you live in Europe having the nice Christmas markets and such in winter is nice and the snow at Christmas, but the nice things about winter are far outweighed by the bad things.
It's cold. I might have mentioned that already...but it really is cold. my feet in winter are just in a perpetual state of frozen...for someone whose shoe variety includes Converse, and...well Converse, winter is not so fun. As much as I love my cons- canvas is not the best material for keeping out the cold.
And I know that people say that it's nice in winter to snuggle up under a blanket and have hot chocolate and read a book or whatever...but you can only do that for so long, and then you want to do other stuff...and you can't really do much in a blanket...they're kind of restricting...you know? and then you have the choice of just giving up on doing anything and just sitting there in the blanket mourning you loss of ability to do anything, or you can shed the blanket and be cold...I mean, even if you put on a jumper your legs are cold. I need one of those doona suit things...but unless someone wants to send me one for those... :P
So, yeah, I don't like winter...sorry this was so short and full of complaining...I'm sick and in a bad mood and yeah...sorry guys...
anyway...hopefully the next one will be better yeah?
Bye!

Real Boys: Please Read

Hey guys,

So, recently, I've been dissatisfied with the standard of boys that I know. Now I'm sure that this is an issue that many girls face, because let's face it: real boys are kind of lame when compared to the amazing boys that we see in movies, books and TV. Real boys never seem to be quite as amazingly attractive, quirky, lovely, funny, charming, chivalrous, or lets be honest, magic. So, here I have compiled a list of books that have male leads that guys could really take some tips from...

~**possible spoilers... I think it's pretty obvious who the main love interest are in the books fairly early on, if not from the blurb, but if you'd rather not know anything about them, or some they're not introduced as possibilities till later in the book, or even for some sequels until the next book, then don't read this...oh, also, some of them aren't even love interests in the books, I just liked them and thought that if I knew them I'd be interested :P ...soz guys who don't want to read...maybe just check out the books titles, read them all then read this? ;D **~

So, here goes:

Anna and the French Kiss (Stephanie Perkins)- Étienne St. Clair

Lola and the Boy Next Door (Stephanie Perkins)- Cricket Bell

Hunger Games / Catching Fire / Mockingjay (Suzanne Collins)- Peeta Mellark, Gale Hawthorne

Switched (Amanda Hocking)- Finn Holmes, Rhys

Torn (Amanda Hocking)- Finn, Duncan, Tove, Loki

Unearthly / Hallowed (The Same Guys for Both...) (Cynthia Hand)- Christian Prescott, Tucker Avery

Matched / Crossed (again...same guys :P) (Ally Condie)- Xander Carrow, Ky Markham

Cinnamon Girl- This way to Paradise (Cathy Hopkins)- Joe

Paranormalcy (Kiersten White)- Lend

Supernaturally (Kiersten White)- Lend, Jack

Girl Missing (Sophie McKenzie)- Jam

Wings / Spells / Illusions / Destined (whenever I put more than one from now on, you can just understand that they're the same through all three, okay? :P) (Aprilynne Pike)- David Lawson, Tamani 

Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging (Louise Rennison)- Robbie

Between Shades of Gray (Ruta Sepetys)- Andrius Arvydas

Wondrous Strange (Lesley Livingston)- Sonny Flannery

Evernight / Stargazer (Claudia Gray)- Lucas Ross, Balthazar

Carrier of the Mark (Leigh Fallon)- Adam DeRís

Glimmerglass (Jenna Black)- Ethan, Keane

How To Be Popular (Meg Cabot)- Jason, Mark

The Little White Horse (Elizabeth Goudge)- Robin

The Agency- A Spy in the House (Y S Lee)- James Easton

Claire de Lune (Christine Johnson)- Matthew Engle

Okay, so some of those are slightly better example of exemplary fictional guys than others, but they're all good books that everyone should read if they can, and then they'll see how amazing those guys are and then they'll be depressed forevs like I am :P kidding, I'm not actually...I just think guys need to read these for a good example and then step their game up a bit, so guys, who's up to the challenge? ;D

Also, I couldn't remember all of their last names, and after a while I couldn't be bothered to look through the book to find them, but if you read the book, you'll know who I mean :P

The most important two you read are the two top ones by Stephanie Perkins, I have decided that when I get a boyfriend I shall make them read those two (the the third one that's coming out soon- Isla and the Happily Ever After I believe...) so they can see what a real boy is :D

So, that's all, there's another glimpse into my sad existence of falling in love with perfect guys from books so that all real boys seem rubbish in comparison :P

Until next time folks!

Dear Fangirls...

Gleek, Potterhead, Directioner, Stackette, Whovian, Panemaniac/Tribute (Glee, Harry Potter, One Direction, Short Stack, Dr Who, Hunger Games, just in case you didn't get that :P)  I can Fangirl with the best of them...but I generally prefer not to. I mean, sure...I could squeal and scream and get all over excited and jumpy whenever anyone ever mentions any of these things. I could write 'Mrs. Harry Styles', or 'Matt Smith ♥♥♥' or 'I Love Peeta' on my books or desks or whatever...but what's the point? I seriously don't get it...I would much rather have a rational discussion with my friends about the latest episode of Glee, or The Hunger Games or a Short Stack song that's been stuck in my head...rather than squeal and such. Why does everyone need to know how much I "looooooooooove -enter hot celebrity's name here-" *squueeaall* just...why guys? why?
This isn't to say that I don't love bands, or TV shows, or Books...I will admit to being all those things I listed at the start, I mean sure I might like some better than others, but I do love all of those things, and I'm not going to get all offended and huffy if someone calls me a Fangirl nickname, in face it makes me feel like I'm part of something special...it's just some people take it too far...I mean, really girls? You cry when you meet One Direction? really? Do you think they're going to remember that girl who was crying? Wait...which out of the other couple hundred of crying girls was that? No. and I know that personally I don't feel comfortable when people I know start crying...I'm sort of like "oh...there there" *pats on shoulder*...imagine having a bunch of screaming crying girls that you don't know throwing themselves at you? wouldn't that just freak you out? I know it'd freak me out...and this isn't just for One Direction...this happens way too much with things...seriously girls. Dignity. Please.

Another things that I don't get about Fangirls...the stalking...why do you stalk these people?? I mean sure, I like Dr Who and David Tennant, but I don't know where he lives. And I like One Direction, and I know their names...but that's about it...I don't know their birthdays, or their favourite food, or what colour socks they were wearing last wednesday (Liam was wearing blue ones...kidding guys! Kidding! :P). I mean sure, there's a lot of information about celebrities (especially the younger popular ones) on the internet and such, but that doesn't mean you need to use this for your own evil purposes people...and why do you even need to know those things? I mean how will knowing things like Justin Bieber's biggest fear, or Liam Hemsworth's year 7 teacher's cousin's dog's name help you at all...do you plan on meeting them and talking about these facts that you have trawled the internet finding and committing to memory? Because, again, personally that would freak me out...probably more than crying girls throwing themselves at me...I mean, what has happened to boundaries and privacy? Sure, we can find all this stuff on the internet, but does that mean we have to? Why can't we just all let each other have our privacy and be happy? This is why we can't have nice things like the internet people...we abuse the power it gives us...



Last but not least: why do we all have to hate each other? Why can't we all live in a little happy Fangirl world where all us Fangirls get on nicely and can have reasonable conversation about or favourite Fandoms, and have a little roped off area for the people who refuse to stop squealing. Why does it have to be "Harry Potter's better than Twilight!" "Justin Bieber sucks!" "Glee is soo laaaame..." really people? Why do we have to do this? can't we all just get on nicely? All this animosity towards each other is just pointless...
Oh, I know I said that the last point was the last one...but I have one more quick one...What is with the claiming to love/hate celebrities? I will admit that I have done this, and still might do this now, but I have realised that it is sill and makes no sense, and I am trying to get rid of this habit...you can't love/hate someone you've never met...if love at first sight doesn't even exist, how can love at no sight? You can't love someone you've never met, let alone talked to...just because you have incessantly internet stalked them and know every obscure fact about them does not mean that you love them...you just think you do. Sorry to be harsh and break it to you, but it's true. The same thing goes for hating people. Oh, you hate Justin Bieber do you? Please, tell me, what has he ever done to you specifically that has made you hate him? sure you can hate his music, or if it's an actor, you can hate the part that they play or the movie, but unless they have done something completely atrocious, I find it very hard to believe that you can hate them...
So, there is my little rant about Fangirls. Don't get me wrong, I love being a Fangirl, and I have nothing against Fangirls...I just don't get some of the things that Fangirls do...see the difference? This is not to say that I don't like popular bands or actors or nooks or anything...in fact the complete opposite...I have a list of Celebrities (mostly male ;D) that I really like, and I love most popular book series (but I am one of those people who will read pretty much anything :P)
So, yeah...hope that didn't offend anyone or anything...
Buh Bye Guys!

Like a Boss ;D

Hey people,

What's up? I hope you're all faring well and such, and I say all because I've had 10 page views! woot! yeah! go me! and I knwo that they're not all me, because they are from around the world...I am just a little bit excited...even though it's not that many...it seems like lots to me, alright?
annyyyyway...hey guys.

so, you know when you're really good at something, and you want to show people, but once you've already shown everybody once, and you try to show them again, they're like "no, gtfo. we don't care if you can ____. go away" and then you feel like your great talent is now wasted because no one wants you to do it. Well, we have this game at home (it's called Smart Mouth...it's so good!) and I'm really good at it...like I'm, not even being arrogant or anything, I am actually legitsy really good, I win every single time, and now no one wants to play with me...which makes me sad, because I actually really like the game, not just because I'm good at it, but because I like it. The way the game works is pretty much, there are these tiles, green ones and orange ones, and there's this cool machine-y thing that dispenses the tiles (but that doesn't really matter) and pretty much, one orange tile and one green tile are put out, and everyone has to think of a work beginning with the orange tile and ending with the green tile, like if you go "r" and "t" you could say "Root, Robot, Restraint, Re-elect, Reflect, Relent...etc." but the words have to be more than 3 letters, and whoever says a word first gets the tiles, and then once allt he tiles are gone you count up your tiles and whoever has the most wins. it's pretty simple, and really fun (seriously guys...it sound kind of lame, but it is REALLY fun ;D) So, I played two games of this with my mum, brother and exchange sister, and I won both games...and then no one wanted to play with me any more...I eventually convinced my mum and K (Imma just call her that, because I can't be bothered to write "my exchange sister" every time...okay?) and I won that too, and now none of them want to play with me again at all...and it makes me sad, because I like that game...and I don't understand why people do this...well I do understand, because I'm pretty sure I do the same thing, but objectively, I don't understand why people are like "so-and-so can do this better than me, so I just won't do it any more." I mean, sure so-and-so can paint better/sing better/cook better/win at cool games, but does that mean that you should give up? no, it doesn't and some people don't, but there are people out there who do, and my message to you people who do give up is: don't. just practice lots until you're better than they are, and then you have two options:
a) rub it in their face and be all "haha, you thought you were so good, but you're not are you?? haha! you suck! etc." which I must say isn't a very nice option, but it could be rather amusing...no what am I saying...I am not encouraging you to make fun of people! that's mean. don't be mean guys...
b) take the high road, and just subtly prove that you are superior to them without rubbing it in their face...and then they'll get jelly and try to beat you, and then you'll have to keep being better...how do you think progress happens people?
but people who are all "no, I don't want to play that with you/watch you do that because you're better than me..." if it's going to make them feel good about themselves, let them...I am not being superior here...I need to work on this too...so let's al work on this together, okay?

 
also, I saw "Avengers" yesterday...it was so good! The characters were all really well played,and the plot was pretty good, and there were quite a few times when I had a good laugh...I do recommend though that before you see it you at least watch the other movies...if not read the graphic novels...I knew who all the characters were because I'd done this, but K didn't and I had to keep explaining things to her, but we both really enjoyed it and I deffers recommend seeing it if you get the chance!

Alright, that's all for today!
Bye!

wibbly wobbly time-y wimey... Stuff

Hiya! 
Sorry I didn't post anything yesterday, I had millions of homework to do, and my education is just kind of important...just a bit :P I still actually have homework to do, but I figured since I didn't post yesterday, and I wanted to post every day for the first week, I shouldn't really shirk another day of writing...

11th Doctor and TARDIS

So, I thought today I'd talk about one of my favouritest TV shows evaar: DR WHO! woot yeah! so, for those of you unfortunate enough to not know what Dr Who is, it's a TV show that's been going for decades, but I've only really been watching the latest 3 doctors, because they stopped for a while, then came back, and I've seen it from when they came back...but, yeah, the pretense for Doctor Who is that the Doctor is a 900 year old alien who comes from a planet called Gallifrey. Gallifrey was where all the Time Lords (the race of alien that the doctor is) lived, but then they had a huge war called the Time War against the Daleks (some other aliens that are evil and the Time Lord's enemies) and now the Doctor is the only Time Lord left. He now travels around in his space ship called the TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimention In Space, just FYI :P) which can travel anywhere through time and space and just so happens to look like a Polce Telephone obx.... Also, Time Lords have two hearts, and when they die, well get close to dying they 'reginerate' which is basically where they change what they look like and get a completely new body, along with a completely new personality, but he still has all his memories and stuff... He normally travels with a companion, who is just someone from earth (or I believe in the early series there were a few aliens...not sure though) who travels with him and help him and stuff. The companions are usually girls, but there have been a couple of guys, but they usually travel along with a girl companion...

10th Doctor ;D

I realise that to anyone who doesn't like this type of show, that this might all sound stupid and like a pointless show, but it is legitsy a really good show...like, I really really like it. I've been watching some of the episodes from a couple of years ago, and it's really funny to laugh at the terrible CGI and animation, but the story lines are still awesome sauce, and that was also when they had the sexiest Doctor- David Tennant ;D
Since I've been watching Doctor Who, there have been three Doctors, the first was the 9th Doctor who was played by Christopher Eccleston. The 9th Doctor was a much harsher Doctor than the two subsequent ones, and he had a more superior air about him, which some people say makes him more like the Doctor is supposed to be, because he is more advanced race than humans and the like, whereas others, myself included, find the subsequent two Doctor's more "human-ness" more endearing and makes them easier to relate to as characters. The next Doctor and my personal favourite is the 10th Doctor, played by David Tennant. No only is he crazy insanely attractive, he was also funny, adorable, clever, quirky, and at one point he even fell in love, which was the most endearing, but also heart-wrenchingly sad thing ever witnessed on TV when they were separated. saddest. thing. ever. I cry every time, like sitting on the couch sobbing...my brother laughs at me every time :P But David Tennant was seriously the best Doctor ever, after his 5th season he decided that he really has to leave, because otherwise he would have just stayed on forever :P The current Doctor- the 11th Doctor is played by Matt Smith. he is freaking adorable. like legit, so cute...along with being rather attractive ;D The 11th Doctor is characterised for his quirky sense of fashion- namely his "cool" bowtie and suspenders and his overly happy easily excitable demeanour...he's great :D

The Doctors (top 3) and Companions

While I love all of the past three Doctors (maybe not equally (mhh...David Tennant ;D)...but I do love them all!) the Companions can be a bit hit and miss...the first companion and my all time favourite was Rose, played by Billie Piper, she was amazing, the perfect companion for the Doctor, fully trusting him and helping him and keeping him human. Rose was the companion all through the 9th Doctor and the beginning of the 10th Doctor, and the one that got away- literally...she was taken into an alternate dimension from which she could never return...saddest. ever. :'( but she was absolutely the best ever too...also, for a time during Rose's stay with the Doctor there was Mickey, her boyfriend on earth who travelled with them for a bit, and Captain Jack, who was absolutely freakin' hilarious :P (he now features in one of the sub-shows of Doctor Who- Torchwood if you want to see more of him)...the next companion is my least favourite...I really didn't like Martha (Freema Agyeman)...I mean, she was an alright as a companion, but woman, YOU CAN'T FALL FOR THE DOCTOR!! HE WILL NEVER LOVE YOU! seriously woman, keep it in your pants. sheesh. it was just annoying really...and she wasn't particularly special for any other reason- she wasn't funny, or a genius or a ninja or anything...but yeah...then somewhere along the way one of his old companions came back for little bit, Sarah Jane, but I don't really remember her...the next companion was great, Donna (played by Catherine Tate) was fantastic after Martha because she didn't fall in love with the Doctor, she was funny and critical of him and they were brilliant together...after Donna the Doctor was alone for a bit, then came Matt Smith with his new companion- Amy (Karen Gillan). At first I didn't like Amy, she just annoyed me, but once her fiance Rory (Arthur Darvill) had joined the crew, I grew to like her, but not as much as Rory who was the sweetest guy ever, like Amy did not deserve him, but some how she got him...and yeah :P The River was ther for bit, but we don't talk about River...we don't like River. At All.


I could actually go on for a lot more about how brilliant the show is, and about how the plots are (mostly) great, and the music, and costumes, and the characters, and AHH SO GOOD!! :D but this is already really long... so moral of the story: if you haven't seen Doctor Who- you should. And if you have- good on you! :D
Hopefully this wasn't too confusing or boring :P
Adios!

I Shall bring the Unicorns!!

Lady Rainicorn from Adventure time-
for those of you who haven't seen it:
do it!! :D

Hey there guys! 

I'm not really sure why I keep addressing this to an audience, I mean I've had 5 page views, four in Australia (which I'm pretty sure are all me, but if some of them are someone else, thanks!) and one view in Germany, which could easily be an accidental view, but if you did accidentally come on here and read what I wrote and thought 'hey, this chick's kind of insane, but pretty cool! I might keep reading!' or if you did mean to click on this and read it (how did you find me?!? :O :P) then you totally should keep reading, and you should recommend me to your friends and randoms on the street and such...it would be nice to actually have people reading my blog...I feel like have some worthwhile stuff to say...well maybe not that worthwhile, but hopefully I can amuse people or something? Yeah, still not sure what the point of this blog is yet, I reckon it's just a place to write down my thoughts and such...and bring laughter and joy and rainbows and unicorns to the people of the world!!! yaaaay!! kidding, sorry...well this is awks...

So, what will I wirte about today? you ask? It's a good question, what am I going to write about? Well, I'm at school in the library right now...I have a free line, and I was like "hey, this is a good time to do another post!" so, I could write about school, but that's a bit lame, isn't it? School is school, I'm doing pretty artsy classes, because I'm cool and artsy like that...that means no maths. No science. And no P.E. YAY!! It's nice only doing classes that I actually like, because I generally don't not want to go to school anymore, because all the classes I have are ones that I chose because I am interested in, whereas last year I would jump at the opportunity to not go to school because it was inevitable that I would have either maths, science or P.E. none of which I liked very much (even though my maths teacher was hilarious, and I didn't actually mind P.E. that much...well I liked the people and the teacher...not so much the having to get changed and do excercise part...me and physical coordination don't go together so well...I'm one of those people who throws a ball and it goes the complete opposite direction to where I was throwing it :P, also I really didn't like english last year either because I didn't like my teacher very much...and the feeling was pretty mutual...) but yeah, so I like my classes, so I've also gotten out of the bad habbit that I had last year of drawing all over my desks, which I did in maths and science because I had no intrest in them at all...but yeah, school, is as I said school...not very interesting, even though I managed to write a pretty significant paragraph on it...shh... :P

I could talk about the nails I have at the moment, they are  Toucans...they're pretty cool, but I'd want to put up pictures and such, and being at school makes that just a little bit hard, you know? But maybe I'll do that tomorrow, when I can do it at home with a camera and get good lighting and take a good photo (or, you know get my exchange sister to take it, oh yeah, did I mention that we have an exchange student staying with us? well we do, she's from Finland, and she's really nice and pretty and she has an awesome camera ;D You'll probably hear about her quite a bit, along with mon bestie, because I spend lots of time with them...I don't actually say bestie, don't worry :P)

Or, I could write about the book I'm reading atm, because it's really good, but I'd probably want to write an entire post about it, because it's one of my favourite books, and if I wrote a full length post about it now, this post would be uber long (I'm allowed to say that without sounding like an idiot, because I actually speak German, and French for that matter, so don't judge guys...) and no one (probs not even me) would ever be bothered to read through it all, so yeah, I won't do that, but I will at one point, it's Anna and the French Kiss, btw...SO GOOD!! :D I've also read two other books since sunday (it's tuesday now for me...) I read 'Feeling sorry for Celia' by Jaclyn Moriarty which was really good, and 'Between Shade of Gray' by Ruta Sepetys, which was also really good...I don't think that that really gave either of those books the credit they deserve, I'll talk about them more in another post about good books at some point...don't worry :P because I'm sure you were really worried, weren't you?
Anyway, I've written a pretty long post about pretty much nothing...do you like the pictures though? I thought that yesterday's post looked a bit a boring with no pictures, and I'm slowly figuring out who this thing actually works, and how I can artfully put pictures in, instead of just having them chilling on their own line ;D
So, that is all for today, have fun!
Bye!
xoxo

P.S. should I put in a little dictionary of the things and abbreviations I say (such as awks and probs), or do you get me?

 

I'm a Strong, Confident, Independant, Black Woman.

Well, except for the black part, and I'm not very physically strong either, but I guess it's more talking about 'strength of the soul' or something equally cheesy :P
anyway, the point is, I just had a nice D'n'M (is that how you write it? I dunno, it just looks better than dnm...anyway a DEEP and MEANINGFUL conversation) with my mum, because I was complaining that my brother was taking all my friends, because first he started going out with one of my close friends, then on the bus today, two of my friends from school (not close ones, but still) got on, and walked straight past me, and then waved to him...and I was sort of like "oh, right, thanks guys..." but in my head, because I didn't want to seem petty or anything, but it really hurt...and so I was complaining to my mum, and I blamed her (I wasn't really blaming her, but I reckon that it is part of the reason...), because she made us got to a small school for 3 years, where we had to share friends because there were only so many cool people there...so he now seems to think that it's normal, and I have no issue with him being friends with my friends, but it's upsetting when they then become better friends with him, and ignore me...does that make sense? or do I seem really petty? Anyway, we are not here to discuss my shortcomings and pettiness (which, I still really don't think this is...) the point of this is to tell you what my dearest mother told me. she said that I was strong and confident, even if I didn't realise it.
She said I knew who I was, and I knew what I wanted, not necessarily what I want to do with my life (lol, who knows that this early on? awks when almost everyone does, but I am an arts student, so I'm screwed before I even begin, aren't I? :P) but I can make a decision. She said I was confident with myself, even if I was shy, and that she didn't worry about me.
Now, there were two things I wanted to discuss here. First: the difference between 'self-confidence' and 'confidence' and there is a difference, and I don't think everybody knows the difference, or maybe I just have my own view of the difference. In my view self-confidence is what I have. I am comfortable with who I am, I know I'm weird, and I kind of talk like and idiot. I know that not everybody will like me for who I am, but I also know that this is who I am, and I don't want to change for anyone. Having self-confidence doesn't mean you can talk to anyone, or make speeches in front of heaps of people. it doesn't mean you are good at talking to people or making friends, it just means you are confident with yourself. Confidence on the other hand is what means you can just go out and talk to people just like that (I just clicked my finger btw :P), being confident means you can talk to people and aren't scared of people, but people who are confident aren't always necessarily self-confident, they can be insecure with themselves, but just be really good at covering it up, just as people who are self confident aren't necessarily confident (that would be me...)...but I guess that normally the two go hand in hand, but there's always the exception that proves the rule right?
The other thing I wanted to discuss was the fact that she doesn't worry about me. Well, she does worry about me, she asks about school work, and listens when I complain about people at school, and my problems and such, but she doesn't worry about me failing school, or life, or not knowing who I am...and strange as it sounds, sometimes I wish people would worry about me more...I mean, sure, no one thinks I'm going to fail, but that doesn't mean I want to feel like I matter to someone and have them worry about me, you know? it's like in art, the teacher will come over to where I'm standing with my two friends in art, and he'll talk to one of them for ages about her painting, because she is very indecisive about what she wants to do, and is constantly changing her mind about what she wants to do, and sure I get that he needs to help her to decide what to do and help her get something done, but he stands right next to me, and then just walks away without saying anything about any of my paintings...and I guess that that means that there is nothing to worry about with my paintings, but it would still be nice if he could reassure me, or discuss with me if my colour composition is a bit off...you know, sometimes it's nice to know that people are at least thinking about you enough to worry about you...
well, this was sort of a self pity post...tomorrow's post will be less self pitying, promise! I'm planning on writing one post a day for the first week, then maybe a couple a week after that, but I need to get into the habit of doing it regularly if I hope to succeed at this at all :P
so, that's all...hope I've given you (the you who doesn't even exist yet, but will hopefully eventually...Fingers crossed!!) something to think about...or maybe you just think I'm even more insane now than you did before...if that's at all possible :P
anyway,
bye guise!

Fingers Crossed!

Okay, so I have no idea what I’m doing here…somewhere deep inside I know I will fail utterly at the upkeep of this blog…and I’m not even sure what I am hoping to achieve with this, but hey, why not right? Fingers crossed I won't fail completely! :P
so, what are you supposed to say in your first blog post? Especially one that I’m probably going to be the only one to read…should I introduce myself? But if I’m the only one to read this I’ll feel like an idiot introducing myself to…well me :P
“Hi, me, it’s me, let me tell you all about myself”
yeah, that’s cool…but then what if someone somehow magically reads this? And then they won’t know anything about me…which would be awks…
Okay, I have made an executive decision…I will introduce myself…because then if I’m only one to read this, well then I can just feel embarrassed from myself for being lame and introducing me to me, but if someone does read this then I will have been clever to introduce myself…
okay, if anyone is actually reading this they will probably have realised by now that I am just a little bit completely insane…but it’s cool guys, I know I am and I am comfortable with it…don’t worry ;P

So, let’s start again:
Hi, my name is Em, nice to meet you! Umm… what else? Where do I go from here? Oh the awkwardness of first meetings, right? Anyway, let’s push through shall we?
So, a bit about me. I’m a Nerd, as should be obvious from the title of the blog... though I’m not quite as big a nerd as the title would suggest…but I liked the sound and I’m definitely nerdy enough to pull it off :D I’m also an artist…well I like to think of myself as an artist, though I do most of my art at school, there’s just not enough time for it at home with the internet just…there. All the time. I probably spend too much time on the internet, but you can hardly judge, if you’re reading this you probably spend too much time on here too ;D I also like reading…like I REALLY like reading, I have over 250 books, and I’ve read all of them except for maybe 15…yeah, I like reading just a bit…my favourite books are probably the Hunger Games, Anna and the French Kiss (it sounds bad, but it is legit really good…) and anything by Tamora Pierce, but I like a lot of other books too…maybe eventually I’ll put a up a list of good books, or I’ll review some books…or something :P um what else do I like? I like cooking and sewing, because I am just that good of a woman… loljks. No one better make any kitchen jokes, or any such other jokes…the gender inequality that is still present and the blatant and accepted sexism in today’s society is something I really hate… so just, no. umm…I also love giraffes! They are so cool, they are the coolest animals, along with llamas, camels and alpacas… I mean, honestly, what is not cool about those animals? :D my favourite colour is green, and my favourite plant is…I have no idea, who actually has a favourite plant? That’s just a little bit weird…just sayin’ :P Oh! Also, something actually kind of cool about me, I have cool hair…well it’s not actually that cool, straight and brown…yeah woo…but my friend put pink streaks in, because she is amazing, and now it’s actually kinda cool :D I am a nail art enthusiast (do you like how I can make it sound fancy? ;D) I love painting my nails with cool pictures and such, right now they are toucans, you’ll probably hear much more about my nails later… a lot more :D Also, I'm scared of spiders, birds (seagulls, crows, magpies, and other ones of that sort of size...) and shower drains...totally normal, right? :P
well, that’s about all I can think of to tell you about myself, exciting right? I’ll leave you with a funny picture (well I found it amusing, all right?) to make this at least worthwhile…I’ll make the next one more interesting, promise!

 

Bye!
