Beautiful Disaster 2008-11-24 18:25:00 Lincoln was immense, the party was epic and should actually go down in the history books.Me and Danni so know how to throw a decent bash.Around 50 people were crammed into Danni's flat by 9pm, we had the vinyls going on the record player which was bagged from British Heart Foundation for £60, what a beaut.Fire alarm went off twice due to the flat overheating with the amount of people and everyone Read more:Beautiful

Hawaiian Time 2008-11-20 17:21:00 Apologies for posts being sporadic. I have such a short attention span when it comes to updating such things.Anyhow I'm eagerly awaiting Saturday to celebrate my mate Danni's birthday. Complete with hot DJ in the kitchen, cocktails and Hawaiian
outfits. Oh and the 200+ people she's invited LOL.Shopped again today, I really need to calm it with the money flow.Got new leather jacket, LBD, checked sh
Unlucky in life. 2008-11-12 15:08:00 My laptop has come back to life after a long and annoying sleep. I don't know what the hell has been up with it but the Internet hasn't been working. Apologies.Well its been a bit of an awful week or so, lost a lot of material items, keys, bank card, nearly lost my phone and D&G chain. I don't think god likes me at the moment, I must of done something wrong that I am not aware of.Also on Monda
Manc time 2008-11-05 07:44:00 As it turned out the guy who was found in the river was my bosses best friend, which is awful, especially because he saw the body face down in the water.So its been a weird few days in the office and we are a little behind on deadline today but we're getting there.I'm comprising a list of things to buy in manc tomorrow as I'm basically getting on a train on me tod and travelling over there.Need to
More than a scary story 2008-11-02 17:03:00 The last few days have been dramatic, soul destroying and amazingly wonderful.Strange I know.Halloween was brill, after a lot of jobs crammed into one I made it to Abis and we went out on the lash dressed as Captain Abi Sparrow and her pirate wench.Gigged it in the Old Coach House where The Huskies played a special Halloween set and then made our way to the Matrix and Riverhead. It was packed, and Read more:story
End of an era 2008-10-29 18:54:00 Its official Russell Brand's Radio 2 show is no more. I am such a huge fan of his, if I haven't mentioned before let me fill you in. I have every book ever written about him and by him, I have his DVD and podcast downloads of all his radio 2 shows. I met him in December at a book signing in Leeds where he kissed me on the lips and said I was cute and ever since its been a school girl obsessive iss
Sad times! 2008-10-27 16:16:00 What 90 year old man burns leaves in his garage on a daily basis!A man who lives in this idiotic town that's who. I rode down the seafront to a job and came along a house with smoke billowing out of the garage and automatically called the fire brigade as I thought it was on fire.Turns out to be some stupid mad batty old man, I felt like such an idiot, surely there is a health and safety issue with
Money, money, money 2008-10-26 15:07:00 ITVs Brittannia High, class, I love it, I may even become slightly addicted.Wanted to watch it to see the local girl I interviewed who has a smaller character but ended up getting hooked immediately, plus Mitch Hewer is so lush!Apart from watching that I have done a bit of work today went out with Abi for dinner yesterday and went out for lunch this afternoon with my mum and grandma.Works being re
I don't believe it! 2008-10-22 10:03:00 It's taken me seven days to get information about a cast member from ITV's Britannia High which starts on Sunday, I needed her age, photo and a quote from her. Turns out we already had a frigging photo in our system, I don't know why I bother sometimes I really don't.At least today has been easier than most, which is a blessing seen as how I don't feel too good.One more job and some adverts to put Read more:believe
This dreary little town 2008-10-20 13:25:00 With the aim of going to the gym after work for the first time in about two weeks, it starts pissing it down with rain, guess I'll just have to go later in the week, typical ey?I swear procrastination is my biggest weakness, having come home with the goal of getting a large majority of my work done and starting on the shorthand I have official done jack shit!I think maybe I need some inspiration.

Multiculturalism in the UK 2008-10-19 12:37:00 Apologies for the lack of posts, been a bit of a hectic few days.Worked constantly, nothing much of interest.Although I did interview BBC six o'clock news presenter George Alagiah, when I went along to a talk he was doing at the local theatre about multiculturalism in the UK.It was to also promote the books he had written; A Passage to Africa and a Home From Home, the latter about his transition f Read more:Multiculturalism
Fire fire! 2008-10-15 18:13:00 After time off, the first day back at work is always depressing. Only I was relieved that today was one of those days I'd come home and say 'I love my job.'Wednesday, our deadline day, and with my editor knowing I had finished everything that needed doing before I went away, I was given things to chase up and add bits to, nothing thrilling may I add.Only we then got a call about half an hour befor
Little fish in a big pond 2008-10-14 14:44:00 I don't know what it is about being out of my comfort zone that I really enjoy sometimes, but when those opportune moments come along I grab them with both hands.Just to update, Preston all in all was brill, the shops are wicked, everyone is a sweetheart and I can't wait to go back. Guestlist, first in, front row for One Night Only was also amazing. Spoke to George and the guys after about when we
A washing machine eating a sock!! 2008-10-13 05:19:00 Prestonia is so lush!, Jades flat is hella cute, the University is fairly new so all the buildings are really modern. But then you've got the local (The Ship Inn) and its like something in Camden, its a real mixed bag of glamour and grit, I love it!Jade's flat mates are all lovely and everyone gets on scarily well. To be honest if I had chosen to go to University I would imagine this would of been Read more:eating

Prestonia 2008-10-12 12:15:00 On the train to Preston, it stinks, I love it!I don't know what it is about travelling but it makes me get out of my own head and I always feel somewhat relieved when I get out of my home town. God I can't wait to move.At least I got all my work done today and can now enjoy some time off, first thing when I get there, food!!
Next stop Preston! 2008-10-11 14:26:00 Two posts in the space of a few hours I know I know, do I have a life? Yes infact? and I'm trying to figure out what to wear whilst living it, tomorrow.Browsed through some pieces in Topshop and Primark today, but nothing oh magnifique worth purchasing I'm afraid, plus I'm skint so its back to the wardrobe.What I managed to sling together, gathered red scarf River Island, blue jeans Primark, wide Read more:Preston
Sharmanka Travelling Circus 2008-10-10 07:09:00 I've been feeling exceptionally creative today, which is surprising seen as how I was in such the opposite mood this morning.I think I gained some inspiration after doing a review on an incredible exibition called the 'Sharmanka TravellingCircus
' which began in Russia in the late 1980s. Sharmanka, meaning Barrel Organ, is the life’s work of sculptor Eduard Bersudsky and his partner Tatyana Jaco

We were on the same Journalism course at college and along with all my other lovely friends she has now spread her wings

The day and her.. 2008-10-06 12:58:00 Work was mundane, lunch was mundane and I really need to find some will power from somewhere to get some work done.I felt I got a lot done yesterday but got sent to so many jobs today I didn’t have time to write the rest up.Basic stories of a schools new aquatic club, a refurbished cancer shop, and the first birthday of a cat rescue centre which did nothing for my allergies. All in all nothing g
The Intro... 2008-10-06 12:43:00 Oscar Wilde once said: “Our ambition should be to rule ourselves, the true kingdom for each one of us; and true progress is to know more, and be more, and do more.”He didn’t say however that all of that would be fucking nakering!Although my aim is to live up to that quote and my ‘to do more’ will start here, by creating this blog. As a journalist I feel I should keep one to show I’m up
Disgusting 2009-01-05 15:47:00 I'm so hungry right now, having started this stupid diet. Well I'm no Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, I'm going to have to work at it if I want to improve the size of my waistline. Jesus what an effort.I'm also quite annoyed, having not yet purchased or even seen this months Vogue, quite unusual I know, I am outraged to see that Cheryl bloody Cole is on the cover.Its Vogue for crying out loud, for professi
Every baby needs a daddy... 2009-01-04 10:49:00 Well my cold is still unmistakably here.Back at work tomorrow, great stuff, I've cleaned my room out and I'm currently sat studying whilst watching old films. Breakfast at Tiffany's has already graced my screen, you know I'm decorating my room this year and I'm thinking maybe Holly Golightly style with old suitcases instead of storage boxes, I may even take up knitting haha.Marilyn is now on in La
A festive few weeks to be proud of. 2009-01-02 19:10:00 How is it possible that I am ill. Again.I only overcame the cold from hell a few weeks ago, and here, once again it is rearing its ugly head. On my last days off work as well. Brilliant.I aim to forget about this and tomorrow will go shopping for my mums birthday present and go to the library to catch up on studying. This bloody thing will not bring me down. Although my 'going to the gym more' goa

Lets party like its 1999 2008-12-29 09:56:00 Just to catch you up, I had a nice quiet family Christmas, which consisted of watching the new Wallace and Gromit and eating far too many York Fruits.I received a range of gifts that I am very thankful for, including; ACDC's new album, Morrissey CDs, the Guardian book of rock and roll, a Sid Vicious biography and many other books, makeup, DVDs, Madame by Jean Paul Gaultier, Pink Lacoste and lush b
