anyone for fish and chip supper?

 

While taking my beautiful puppy shep for his morning walk and drink down the sea front we stumbled on this picture and to say the least we both choked on our latte and bowl of water when we say this. I think that i wont be having fish and chips for a long time after seeing that ad.

 

 

 

Poor shep was just sitting there thinking what is the world coming to fish and chips at this price well you can keep them at least i have my milk bones.

A good sense of humour is needed in this life.

Howdy all.

 

my little boy has gone so big dont let the look of innocence fool you

 

I am sorry about my absence over the last while i got a nasty chest infection and i also had the flu the normal kind which left in bed for the last while and it nearly melt half my brain away. i dont think anyone wanted to hear me talk about socks and shoes for some reason or another.

So i am feeling much better now still though the flu has taken a lot of me but i am happy to say that it did not take away my sense of humour. So what can i say college is going pretty good but i had to miss a few days due to the flu but all in all its going great. I actually got to do my first hands on massage class a little while back and i has to say i actually enjoyed it. I think now that i know doing holistic has been the best decision for me to do for the rest of my life. I have to say that i am also really enjoying my anatomy and physiology classes as well. This class always brings a huge buzz of excitement in what we learn in this class. i have always found anatomy as a subject very interesting and so far i have been getting top marks in the class but i am still working hard at it.

I also have to say getting my first massage done in the class was so what a very relaxng and enjoyable experience. The person who got to work on my back was really good and when you have someone working on your back it is quite nice. I have to say if i had to compare it to something that us mere models has had in our lives its like the following having a smoke of some really good weed. Its really strange to start off with and when i had my massage done i was in with my cynical mind. There is no way this is going to relax me and there is also no way that i am going to enjoy this. But no i just layed back face down on the bed and let the feeling of total bliss take over. I have to say if you have a sore back and if you do need work on it can be really beneficial and it can do wonders for the body and the mind and the soul.  If anyone who has never had a massage before and would like to get one done i would highly recommend that you get it done.

 

I also have to say that i feel so much better in body mind and spirit myself in with starring this course. I am eating much healthier my posture is much better and i dont get stressed as often as i did. BUt i do still have my sharp wit and i am still tending to shoot from the hip in which i am proud of that. I actually said this to a person last week  i am now its up to you to take me as i as i am tattoos sharp wit and a gorgeous border collie puppy to boot and all. Speaking of puppys sheps doing great hes in great form hes made a few new human friends by the taxi rank at bray dart station and i have to say hes never been better. hes also learned a few tricks or 2 since i have last posted up my last blog. Hes now learned to give me the paw give me high 5 hes also toilet trained and now he gives me his lead for when he wants to go for his walkies. hes more than just a collie hes my collie and also hes my best friend.

I also would like to say that with doing my holisitcs course its really opened to the door of my health and in doing this course i am also doing my bit for my diet. I have actually managed to eat healthy and cut way back on my mcdonalds and i am also drinking water. I use to hate drinking water but now i actually like it.  Oh yeah a few things to me a little while back. I actually met a person that i use to go to school with and we had a little chat about what we are doing with our lives. So emma (not her real name of course) what are you doing with yourself now. So she chimes in im actually not working i am back at home with the little one and i am still doing hair dressing. Oh i said hair dressing how wonderful. No offensive guys and girls but i hate hair dressing sweeping up human hair and rising  our hair is not how do you say a dream job for me. Sorry if i cause any offensive. Oh hair dressing i said with a i dont give a shite look on my face.

So what are you doing with yourself she said to me. Well i said i am doing a 3 year holistic course. in my first year i will be doing anatomy and physiology success in business massage and stress management. With that i got a shocked look in my direction. Oh god that sounds like a lot of hard work she replied. Well it is not when you care about something so much and you want to make a difference in your life it should not be classed as hard work. Oh she said well you must like it. Well of course i like it if i didnt like it i would not be doing it you idiot i actually hissed this under my breath.  Oh so what will you be doing tonight my dumb blonde friend asked me. Well i have to open up my grays anatomy and study that for a while. Oh is that the tv show with doctor mc dreamy. With that i just said its actually a book on the human body and how it works. I am currently studying the cardiac system and how it works and with that mouthful of information i lost her thank god.

so i have a quick joke for you guys and i hope that you like it. whats blonde and brunette blonde and brunette blonde and brunette?  Its a naked blonde doing cartwheels.

 

Seeya and bye for now

call off the search im back

Hiya folks.

 

After much needed talks with eircom regarding the whole kidnapping and holding my modem to ransom im back. I came to a small agree ment with eircom and with that thet have decided to put me back on line. After all i am a student who needs the internet nearly all the time for her case studies and if i need to look up information on different subjects well i am certaintly not going to go to any more internet cafes any more. ugh internet cafes they are just the pits.

 

so i dont really have much news i have started on my holistics course and its going really well. i have made new friends and my new friends in return have made me a student council rep. Its a fun job but mighty tiresome but hey someone has to do it.

 

I am actaully very sick with the flu so as soon as i get better i will write a longer better blog. So i am going back to bed and see if i can get any better in myself. Bye for now and take care

 

regards vicky

A new addition to my little family

Firstly I would like to apologise I know that I have been missing in action for the last while. To cut a long story short eircom have decided to kidnap my modem and they are currently holding it to ransom for a few quid but I have said no to getting the modem back and I will be getting broadband on a stick very soon. So it will be just a matter of time before I get back on my feet and back in the wonderful world of the web.

So I am really pleased to tell you all that I have become a mummy for the first time. I have to say that I am very happy that I am a mummy in fact I am a nice yummy mummy. Now here’s a description of my baby. He’s small got beautiful brown eyes and he also have 4 legs and he is a tan and white dog. He’s a border collie and his name is shep. I got shep as a gift and I have to say he’s the best gift that anyone could ever get. Now shep have been in my life for the last month and I would not change him for the world. He is without a doubt a great puppy and one day he will be a very strong and handsome dog.  He is still very small but he breaks hearts every where he goes. Anytime I take shep out every man woman and child stops me to coo and pet him and I have to say that we both love the attention.  He’s very bright and also very cute and in the small amount of time that we have been together we have a very strong bond together. Which I think is a great thing to have.

Now certain people have different views when it comes to their dogs. But when it comes to my shep we both break the old views that many people have told us over the last while. Anytime that I have walked anywhere with my new baby. You would always get certain busy bodies telling you how to raise your dog. I think the best one I heard was that if you have a border collie on your hands hes going to be trouble. But I have to say that my little dude has been good as gold and has not given me any trouble at all. He likes to eat the odd slipper but I just laugh at that. I have to say watching shep growing up every day its quite nice to say my little dude learns different things on different days. Like for example last week shep has learned to give me the paw and anytime I hide a treat in my hand he knows where to find it.  The only thing that has spoiled our time together is the odd dog napper trying to taking him from me. So I have to say thank good in a way that he had an ID tag and he is microchipped. So that is all the news from me for now. So bye for now and take care

A sweet piece about music and the wonderful Ms Melody Gardot

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Eb651s_o1Q

Hiya guys hope your all well.

 

I am going to write abut my favourite thing to do in the world apart from writing this blog watching hollyoaks ( there will be a small piece on hollyoaks coming soon so watch this space) and cooking. One of my great passions is music. I love listening to music. I like all kinds of music if you can name it you will probably find it on my MP3 player. I have to say i have an eclectictaste when it comes to music i like all kinds of music from rock pop irish folk dance oh god i will be here all night telling you all about what music i like. So i will get straight to the point.  I am going to write a piece n a avery talented young lady that i stumbled up on while i was on you tube and i would certainly highly recommand that you check her out. Her voice is beautiful and when i listen to her music she just stirs something in my very soul. She is also a jazz singer which is briallnt becasue i love jazz so much. I love miles davis and the old school crew of brillant jazz singers and I have to say when i listen to jazz it just takes me to another place and its a really good place to go to.  So anytime i need to take some timeout for me i would put on a jazz cd pour out a glass of red wine and just relax and loose myself in the music.

So without further adue i introduce to you Ms Melody Gardot. this wonderful singer is from england and with her good looks and smoky sound she is most certainly got a permanent place of residence of my heart. But what makes her stand out from all other jazz singers is she has a brlliant talent but behind that brillant talent lies a very sad story. i actually read her story in glamour magazine so i will be taking pieces out of the magazine to put in this blog. Melody was in college studying for her fashion degree when one day tradegy struck. She was cyling to work on her bike to a resturant in which she worked to pay for her college fees when she was hit by a car. Sadly she was taken to hospital and when the doctors did tests on her to check her reflexs in her legs they didnt work. So when her doctor came in to tell her the bad news that she could not walk again. She just fell silent and said with a smile on her face oh well i can get a really cool wheelchair and i can still use my hands so i could also go to an art course and start to paint. 

Melody than had to have therapy and slowly but surely it started to work. She went in to a rehabliation centre and started to do aqua therapy this is a type of therapy in which a therapist would place you in in a tank and it would fill up with water and with the  help of the water it takes the gravity away so it makes learning to walk again not so painful. So with the help of occupational therapy and yoga and huge support from her family she has slowly but surely has learned to walk again. melody now walks with a stick but as she says in the interview people dont need to know that about me. Also she has to wear special tinted glasses due to the accicent that i had my sight got damaged badly so it there is a reason in which she wears the glasses. I have read other blogs about this girl and i think that if anything the glasses that she wears only adds to the wonderful and beautiful singer and person that she is today.

 

I have to say that while reading her interview and listening to her music i could not fault this girl even if i could. Shes amazing talented she looks really beautiful when shes performing. There is a lesson to be learned in this story no matter what shite life decides to throw in our direction it can make or break us as people. I am glad to have read and listened to some of her work and she is amazing her voice is just beyond wonderful. She has a great talent and she can blow the amy whinehouses out of the water. (yes i know winehouse is the proper spelling but i dont really like amy winehouse shes not really for me).  So i will give you a link so you can check it out for yourself and you can tell me what you think of Melody Gardot.  I hope you all enjoy it and i will say good bye for now.

I have the diet blues

Hiya guys hope your all well and life is treating you good.

Well me i am not doing so good at all. I have been sick for the last while and when i say sick i mean very sick. I think its due to the stress of everything really. I mean this whole global money crisis havent helped anyone and the whole thing of not having a whole lot of money in the kitty hasnt helps things either. So after a while of being sick i decided to go to the doctr. I have had crippling tummy pains for the last while and well anytime i ate some food well i wasnt keeping it for long. I also noticed a little while back i was getting a bit too skinny for my liking. Dont get me wrong i am a skinny girl but when i started to see a size zero person standing in front of my mirror instead of me i was starting to worry.

So i took a trip to my GP last week. Only to see that my regular doctor wasnt there so i had to see the part time doctor that is actaully a parttimer who comes in to cover the other doctors that might be on leave or might be on holiday. Now i have to say that i hate seeing new doctors its something that i dont like doing. Seeing a complete stranger and telling her my most personal information about me and who i am and what i do. So as i knocked on the door i was greeted by a somewhat nice lady doctor. So tell me she says what can i do for you today she said in a cheery voice. Well i have been sick for the last while and i havent been eating properly and i need you to fix this problem. Okay dokey she says and as i took off my jacket she gave me this shocked looked on her face. Have you been eating properly ms rogers she said as she poked at my frame with her finger. Well you see thats the probelm i have been sick for the last while and i cant eat. So as soon as she said down and i got dressed i was given the low down on my shocking weight loss.

So i told her i was under stress and anytime i ate food i could not keep it in me. So she told me staright away what it was. I think you should avoid dairy and wheat for the next while. Try and take some vitamins and try and cut back on the stress. Wwhn she said cut back on the stress i could have cried. I had to tell her what was going on living in a bad neighbour hood and worrying about my sick mum. So she wasnt all that helpful so when were finsihed i got my coat and walked away. I went for walk thru the park and had a little time to myself and think about whats been going on and how to fix this problem. When i went home i typed in my little problem to yahoo answers and 2 minutes later i got the answer and not only the answer some nice tasty recipes to help me alone the way.

I now have cut all dairy and wheat away from my diet and i am feeling a bit better in myself. My skin is starting to clear up my body is slowly starting to accept food again and i actaullyfeel better in myself. I think the only thing that i miss from my diet is my latte coffees but its a small sacrifice  to getting back to proper health. I am eating plenty of greens and lots of vegetables and some red meat and lots of fish but i am getting there towards better health.  So in a way this blog is just to clear up a few things about me and my health and why i have been commenting on my dairy and wheat free diet on facebook.

So i say goodbye to you and i hope that this clears things up.

I heart films

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGjifZi4LzI

Now the link i have used for this blog is the jigsaw doll from the saw movies. Hes one creepy little dude and if you read the blog i have wrote a piece on the saw movies.  I hope you enjoy it

Now just a word of warning these are my own views on this blog and if you dont like it well dont read it. I dont want the guilt trip of making some angry or miffed because i am just telling it like it is.

So i have become quitea movie buff of late. mainly thanks to my sky box and of course buying shares in my local video shop. (before you ask i am kidding like i would buy shares with the currant stockmarket and oh yeah lack of funds) .  So i have watched some interesting films of late and in this blog i would like to reccomand a few films that i have watched of late and and what has been really pissing me off with the whole film industry of late.

 

I have been watching a mixture of good and bad films and i have been watching the new films that have come to dvd. One film that i would recommand watching is slumdog millionaire director danny boyle. I can actaully see why that it won a rakeful of awards and a whooping 8 oscars. Its a really good film about a young boy who goes on the indian version of who wants to be a millionaire and it shows you his life story alone the way and how he had not had not easy. I have to say its quite a charming film very enjoyable a bit tough to watch at times but really good. Some bits made me laugh some bits made me cry and others make me think about eeven though if you go through the shit times of life it can make a better and stronger person and wehn you go through the tough times it can make you the person that you are today. i have to admit i have not had an easy life but watching this film made me realise that even the little guy gets a break in life he or she wont have it easy but they also do get a break in life. Whether it is good of bad it is up to the person themselves and what cards they decide to play in the game of life.

 

Another film i actually watched and really enjoyed was hes not that into you. Its got a brillant cast Ben Affleck Jennifer Aniston Jennifer Connelly Drew Barrymore and a few other good actors. Its basically a chick flick and one for the girls this film is. What did put me off though in getting this movie to rent was that the writers from sex and the city wrote the script from the film and my first thoughts were on no not more sex and the city god i hate that show. But needless to say i got the film and guess what  actually enjoyed it was quite good great storylines and it had funny one liners as well. while watching this film i saw certain people that i know that have certain relationship problems and what made the film good was in whow they dealt with each problem. It also had a great performance from Jennifer Anistion. I am so in a Jennifer Anistion mood of late. I cant fault the girl even if i could i really do love her shes such a wonderful actress and she would be most likely my best friend to hang out if i had a best friend of course. But yeah if you fancy having a girls night in its a film i would highly recommand watching.

I also got to watch the Kill Bill series and mostly i watched out of respect for the late actor David Carradine who sadly passed away. I am a total kung fu fan and i also loved the fightscenes in the film. I loved that scene with the Uma Thurman knocking out the crazy 88s one by one. I also loved the scene in whcih she spanks the young crazy 88er it was just too funny for words. It was also good that Uma Thurman can hold her own in such a hugely popular film that is Kill Bill. I also loved the way she always had the upper hand on all of her enemies their strengths their weaknesses and i also loved the fightscenes when i saw the fightscenes they looked really punishing to do at times and i just got really tired looking at certain fights i was like wow she much of had to have a whole lot of energy to do them. I also loved the fact the Quentin Tarantino used manga animation as well as black and white photography for the still shoots when it came to the brides wedding in el paso texas. It was shot very well and what can i say the man is a genius.

Now with great views sadly has to come bad reviews well not bad reviews as such but sometimes film directors and writers can come up with a bad idea that might make or break a product that they intend to make into a million dollar franchise.

Now i have started to watch the saw movie series. If you have never watched the saw series the saw films are about The franchise revolves around the fictional character of John Kramer, also called the “Jigsaw Killer”, introduced in Saw (2004), who rather than kill his victims outright, traps them in situations, which he calls “tests” or “games”, in order to test their will to live via physical or psychological torture. Now the main character john kramer has a simple mission in the film. If you do not appricate your life he will find you kidnap you have to take part in a game or a tarp in order for you to survive. I have only seen the films of late but judging by what i have read in blogs and reading film reviews online i think that this is a pretty good films to watch. Each saw film is gross and strangely addictive to watch. The only problem i had with saw was that i had to watch them twice because i would ask my friend who watched the films with me why is that bloke in the trap for and what does he have to do get set himself free. I have actaully watched all the saw movies.  The last one i watched was saw 5 and it was good but heres the thing. The makers of saw are going to stretch the francise to a whooping 8 movies. As far as i know saw 6 is being made at the moment but what i am thinking here is over kill. Without giving too much away how can you make any more saw movies when the main charcter is long gone from the film. I think that the writers of saw better pull a great big cat out of the bag while trying to make a new saw film. If you think about it if you try and make another film without your main guy or girl in film well whats the point of making it. I know a certain film company that made the omen films. They made i think 4 films and they stopped. But i think that a television company got hold of the rights of the omen film and made it into a tv show needless to say it destroyed the credabilty of the film itself and the writers of the omen i think got seriously pissedwhen the tv got cancelled. It just goes to show you really when you do something good stay at your craft and try for the love of god not to mess it up.

So thats all from me with my films reviews if you guys and girls have seen anything good of late please let me know. Remember all comments welcome

meah i cant be bothered

oh why do i bother i sigh to myself. This has been happening a lot of late. I am currently not sleeping all well of late and i feel as though that everything is so hard to do. I know that i am being bitchy here but i tend to get like this from lack of sleep. This is going to be short but sweet as i cant function my brain from my sleeping problem.

Although if you do have any helpful advice on my sleeping problems please do drop me a line plese and the best answer will get a goodie bag and i big hug from me.

Big Brother The end of celebrity as we speak

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WGqY2tawkA

 

I write this blog with great interest and wonder. I would like to say thanks to a few people who helped me in write this piece and I hope that some parts of it make you laugh cry or wonder why we live in this so called obsessed world that is so full of its so called Big brother  celebs and the BS they tend to feed us with each pathetic lines and the things that they do to please us. ( These are my views and if you are easily offended plsease dont read on)

 I actually watched a documentary during the weekend called big brother 10 years in he headlines. For those of you who don’t know what big brother is. It was a tv show that was created in the year 200o0. its idea was that you get 12 nobodies from the streets of England and maybe in this case Ireland to live in a big house. That sounds grand I hear you all cry? Hate to break it to you guys but this big brother house has cameras every where. You cant run and hide there are cameras everywhere. Its no ordinary house. In staying in this house you have to do tasks and if you get the tasks right you win a prize. Plus it also helps that if you lie cheat and scheme way though this house you have a better chance of winning. You have to stay in this house for so many weeks and you have get on with not only your so called friends housemates but you have to win the affection from the public.

 

I have to say that I did watch big brother the first season and I thought it was good in a way. I thought it was a gameshow in a way in which that you the public have control over who stays and why you want them to stay. I think when big brother came out it was good a fun concept and I laughed at the way that these people did anything to stay in this house. But now that we are entering the 10 year mark I am getting sick of big brother.

What was actually a good idea to do 10 years back this so called social experiment  is now a shameless tacky way of being a celeb now. I can actually remember years back that when I was reading magazines. I only read the nice mags like hello magazine, cosmo,. But now thanks to the rise of the so called celeb we have magazine racks full of these so called celebs. I think when I was watching 10 years in the headlines.  It made for good thinking really. So once upon a time there was a magazine editor called mark firth and he worked for a little magazine called HEAT magazine. Now heat magazine was struggling and they didn’t know what to do. So mr firth had the great idea of putting these non celebs on the cover of HEAt magazine. It was gamble by all means because for a simple reason that when you entered the big brother house you were a nobody but now that these people were leaving the big brohter house they were selling their souls to you got it the magazines. Now the gamble has luckily payed off and now you cant go anywhere without seeing the twits from big brother clogging up good magazine space. Now its no secret that I love my mags I actually love HEAT magazine. It’s a good magazine and I think its great when it comes to its fashion pages and its also great for the celeb stories. But I think now thanks to big brother its slowly but surely ruining the whole reason of being a celeb.

 

Its not only big brother who is ruining he whole thing of being a celeb it’s the way of the gate way being opened for other shows that are being made. I mean I spend the whole weekend flicking in between stations. I think I must have seen about 20 shows based on this so called celebs. I think what is the sad thing is when these sp called Celebs have had their little 15 minutes of fame what do they do after that. Most people would say oh I can go back to my day job answering phones or what ever people do for work now but what has been annoying of late is when the so called celebs want more than 15 minutes of fame. Sure its easy if you are a girl you can how do you say become a lad mags favourite by doing risky photoshoots in which you would have to waer little of no clothes at all. If you’re a boy you could do the same visa versa by going down the road of going to the girls magazines and wearing very little and telling such naughty secrets but if that really a job I think not.

I once watched a clip on youtube called one woman band and she said the following its great if your famous for 15 minutes but I have to get back to my day job. It’s a good thing to say because we both know that this woman entertained many people but it also shows you that she knows when not to be the annoying so called celeb. I actually curse the day big brother ever came on to our TV screens. I just hope that TV executives know that people are so sick of this idiot’s entertainment that is big brother. Please for the love of god cancel it. In failing to do so i will start renting box sets for a change.

excuse miss is this seat taken?

So the following has been happening for the last while and i have decided to write a blog about it.  did you ever have one of those perfect days of utter bliss and everything was going right and while everything was going right you start thinking to yourself hmm this day is going too well oh no i better not say anything just in case i screw it up. Well that does often happen to me. For the last while i have been making plans regarding my new life. Im starting college in september to do my holistics course which i am really excited about. Im going to be a mummy quite soon no i am not pregnant but im getting a puppy so i am looking forward to that to and even better my mums health is getting better.  So all in all its been a great few weeks of thinking planning waiting and a wishing. So to say the least i have been a happy little egg sitting at home watching the world go by.

So i have to say with the limited funds that i have on me at present i have to make certain changes in my life. One of those was not going out to often. Now i think i can say this i sometimes go out once a week i often go for a walk on a daily basis and with my walks i tend to carry a book with me jst in case i stop along the way for a coffee.  Now i have become very fond of a coffee shop that i tend to go to for my weekly treat of coffee and cake. I also have a iittle hiding place that i go to in which i read my book. So i decided to go to my coffee place last week and want to the waitress ordered my coffee and muffin and got into my seat and sat down got comfy and decided to start my reading. Just as i was getting my glasses out of my bag. I saw someone stading above me.  I thought it was the waitress giving me my order but oh no worse still, a complete dirty strange woman stading there looking at me and she started to grab the other chair and went to sit down. I went like this oh sorry what are you doing i said giving her a look over my glasses. So the woman said oh im sitting down. Now just to state the follwing i dont mind people sitting with me but only if you ask i have to say i really like my alone time alone with my book and coffee.  So the woman sat down besit me and started to cough.  Not a subtle cough but more like im going to cough up a lung cough.  So as you can imagine Im trying to sit down read my book drink my coffee and eat my muffin while trying to not show that she is bothering me. So with that i jst got my bag and left.

I have to say if there is one thing that people do to annoy me is when people at your table no matter where you are with out even asking if they could sit there first. I have a good example a few weeks back i was starving and went to mcdonalds (i knopw im so bad) ordered my food and sat down to eat it. Before long this man might have been sat at my table. I than gave him a look as in saying im sitting here and i am not moving.  So when i gave him a look as in saying leave me alone he started talking i was not to impressed i was tired and hungry and i dont like talking to people when i feeling this way but the man was not going to give up and kept talking for the sake of taking. I felt like screaming i dont care about what you are saying now shut up but i didnt.

But what i have to say this why do people do this? I know that for certain that people just do this to annoy me. But why me can you not sit in anohter space and annoy some one else. I have to say now that the only bit of peace and quite i have been getting of late is in my library. Its the only place that you can actully get thrown out for taking.
