HAPPY BIRTHDAY VON!!

hollah for a dollah

Hey kidz
I'm sat in my local library and I shall tell you a tale.

-Yesterday I saw Noah & The Whale with Vic, it was going sort of well...I suppose, until a man in a hat shouted "SMILE!" at us from between the tour buses as we drank some "hot chocolate" with stolen plastic knives. After he disappeared I thought nothing more of it, and oh how very wrong I was. This self same man then went onto try to sell us some bikes, ask us if we thought this little turd was "Pretty" (no) and then gave us beer? I don't know what he was expecting...We had to return the beer and hot foot it down the road as he shouted after us. I was tense for another half hour fo' sho'.
Scary stuff.
And what does Charlie Fink do? Laugh his curly-haired, London ass off at us.
I'm not usually this bitter (?) I suppose you could say, but that was the most harassed I've ever felt!
Noah and the Whale were lovely though and I'm very glad I went!

-Other reasons for me to be excited are that Jay Jay Pistolet is playing on the 28th of November at some place called Dulcimer(?!) and I might have possibly not sure for certain got a review of Josh Weller into Same Teens fanzine :)

-It's Von's birthday today aswell, so Happy Birthday again lovely, I hope what's left of the day is the best yet!!

love and caring bizniz, Mary xxx

ps, I'm also going to unashamedly promote my musak blog I Am Machin. And it turns out I was on Golden Silvers guestlist guys! Ha.

i feel so fucking proud

i helped annoy chris moyles on radio1 this morning.
i sent in a text asking him if the special take that announcement was that they are releasing new tour dates, and after the track stopped playing on the radio, he was saying about how people have been texting in asking him if what he was ment to be announcing was the tour date.
YESSSSSSSS
i only knew because my dad goes to the same gym as howards brother from take that and they are good mates so he finds out all loads of stuff, like they are going to the brit awards!

anyway
as victoria said its half term, one whole week off.
it doesnt really seem much to me because i spent yesterday reading, texting vicky and sewing...
and today i got up at 7.15am and couldnt sleep so i had a drink of tea and decided to take my time getting ready. Now i am waiting on my grandma to text me saying she is home so we can go shopping at crown point, well she just rang me and said she is on her way round!
Got a text before off lucy asking if i am free to do some media filming tomorrow, i suppose i am but i dont want to film at the moment!


love sheridan

"Airport, you've got a smiling face, you took the one I love so far away, flying away, flying away..."

I thought I'd post this story, because yesterday was a very important day for me. So, my mother and I went to the airport because my sisters arrived here ! I've been waiting for this moment for months ! It was really amazing. When I saw my two sisters, I had such a silly smile on my face ! I couldn't stop hugging Laura, and when I realized that there was also my older sister, I couldn't stop hugging her ! Haha... Then we went back to home, my dog was so excited when he saw them ! He couldn't stop moving around his tail, it was funny ! I feel a bit delighted now, I'm not alone anymore !

- Lisa.

PS : Victoria, you do have a talent ! You are very talented, but you haven't realized it yet ! :D

now i walk the streets like a stranger in my own town...

hmmm i have a week off. thank god. i have never hated modern history so much. it's awful, why did i take it? Only 8 months-ish until i get it finished and fail the exam. aswell as my music one and probably every other exam. not looking forward to june 09 at all. or august 09 when i get it on a piece of paper that i've failed. urgh.

anyway, today was good, me, sheridan and geraldine went to town, which was a nice change and a good day. i bought loads of jumpers and t-shirts for me and charlotte to paint and sell, finally, yes!
and tomorrow it's my brothers, chris' birthday and we're off to see the mystery jets which is really cool and a bonus being we get to see mary. oh and then noah and the whale on monday! :D exciting stuff!

i'm hungry, not sure what to have to eat...spaghetti on toast? choco snaps? (tescos version of coco pops which is about 100000000000x better than coco pops!! and cheaper.) hmmm, i should go see what i can have.

oh yeah, could people recommend some songs/send me some? I really want to listen to some different music, we can do music trades :]
so if your up for a music trade, comment and then i'll give you my email and we can send some songs. or you could send me a mix cd. :D whatever floats your boat! just comment.

i'm going to go search for some food, my blog posts are so boring, von and charlotte have good imaginations. i'm searching for my talent. hmph. i want an accordian. i wish i could play an instrument properly. give me a talent. :(

The new porn idea

The other month whilst uploading pictures in glasgow i decided to innocently tag this picture of Von with the words; 'Pig Porno'.

After I tagged it I thought nothing more about it. It was just a joke between the three of us that were there. That was until I started noticing something on flickr stats. For the last two months this photo has been constantly viewed by people typing into google and yahoo the words; "Pig Porn", "Pig Porno", "Pigs gettin jiggy" and various other pig porn related words and phrases.

I always thought the porn industry would survive just on hetrosexual or homosexual films and the occasional girl on horse film. But no, it seems porn watchers have become bored with this and want something more. It's not hot to watch two girls getting it on anymore. The new generation of porn watchers want crazy hot pig action.

Each to their own I guess.

Love Charlotte

i'm friends with a ping pong champion.

i did some really interesting things today. here is what i did.

- took a computing intermediate 1 nab. 

- learnt (more) about utilitarianism.

- talked about the war.

- read a philip larkin poem.

- did some german speaking.

- read new scientist.

- pretended i was 3 years younger.

- built 2 kinder egg toys.

- got caught in the rain.

- had a banter with danny, sam, brian and sean (the ping pong champ).

anyway, i just thought i would tell you all about my day. i downloaded a lot of devendra banhart and joanna newsom last night to complete my collection. it's the right time of year for their music.

also, hello lisa! it's wonderful to have you as part of the byoc team! 

(next post will contain story.)

disney films, how i love thee...

i forgot how good they were.

i can't stop listening to this song,



i love beauty and the beast.
i might just post a different disney-song-video everyday for a while.
ahh love this song.

I'm tired. i need to straighten my hair so i can go watch Jamies ministry of food (I think that's it's name) and ring von too.

so short blog post for tonight.

-victoria

p.s Lisa will begin blogging soon. And Sheridan and Mary when their online for us to give them to password and email...

we only get the heart we're given.

well today i decided to go on another adventure (i like adventures, have you guessed?). anyway, this adventure was to the postbox. i gathered up all of my letters and parcels and cards and packages and postcards and set off. i held all of the post tightly against my chest with one hand while holding my umbrella with the other. i scurried down the hill, the hem of my dress skimming the top of the puddles, all the way to the postbox.

when i arrived i slid each piece of mail into the box one by one, please with myself. after they were all gone i headed home, the rain was easing off but the ground was muddy so i gathered each side of my skirt and ran back up the hill.

when i got in i had some soup.

Scrubbing the cooker

I probably should be sat designing dinosaur chairs right now but I've just finished cleaning half of the cooker and would much prefer to just put my head on the table and go to sleep. Keyboards don't make comfy pillows.

I could sit here and update you on everything but I keep getting distracted by various kitchen items. I love Heinz spaghetti in tomato sauce. I wonder if my tea has gone cold... I can't drink cold tea. I remember Alphabet Aventures, I always thought Golden Girl was a bit of a slag.

Anyway, I think Vic should be punished for breaking the guitar string. Now I can't touch strings til my fingers hurt.

Oh, and isn't it about time Mary and Sherri got on this? I've been saying it for months....

Love Charlotte

P.S - What the fuck did I just post?

all success is fleeting i said to her,

i feel worse than when s club 7 broke up.

today was a big lump of hilarious depression.

when i woke up it was already 12 o'clock and i realised then that i had so much to do in so little time (god bless mary kate and ashley). after i had eaten a massive cheese and pickle sandwich washed down with orange juice from a special carton i decided i would crack on with my work.

my work involved writing a short play for an albino theatre company and also i had to write about my holiday in germany. the latter was slightly harder because i have never actually been on holiday to germany (unless you count a school trip five years ago where i just ate ice cream and shopped in h&m). i had to make up all about what i did and where i went and what the food was like. by the time i had finished i had dreamed up quite a nice little holiday for myself.

anyway, this is the exciting bit! i decided to take a break from the paper writing and get myself a muffin but on the way to the kitchen i spotted a door which i had never seen before. curiosity got the better of me and i went through this strange door. inside was a huge cave and i could see a shadow of a fire on the back wall of the cave. i edged closer to it, wondering if this hidden cave was occupied by any sort of human life. when i reached the back wall i saw that in the corner there was a native american man (red indian but that's not pc anymore). he was playing the pan pipes, you know sometimes you see them doing that in the middle of town? anyway, i sat down next to him and he looked deep into my eyes and said "well child, now you have found the secret hideaway of the music makers" and then he started to play 'we're going to ibiza' on the pipes.

when i finally got to the kitchen i was so amazed about what had just happened that i completely forgot about my muffin and went straight to bed. when i awoke it was night. and now i am sitting typing this.

i wish it was simple, but we give up easily...

i love a bit of kt tunstall, it's been a while..:]

so i forgot to post about this yesterday but on the way home a boy called craig that we know decided it'd be fun to flash his arse repeatedly. It was actually disturbing. However, the look on the old ladies face when she saw it was priceless, i was nearly crying with laughter...It was funny at the time as well as sick and disgusting.

so today was cool, i'm so tired though. Was up earlyish to go with my mum and sisters to bowling as one of them turned 7 on thursday and was having a bowling party. it was pretty cool, i didn't actually get to bowl but me charlotte and calum went on the arcades. me and charlotte went on a shooting game and my gun didn't work which pissed me off! oh and then i went on a motorbike game against calum. (Note - It's really hard to move on those things whilst wearing a skirt...)
but yeah it was fun, and then later i went into town with my dad, his girlfriend, charlotte and calum which was cool. We took my dads girlfriend in some shops she hadn't been in before, we haven't seen in her ageeees so it was nice to see her and take her in some shops she hadn't been in before. i think that's about it now, i'm so tired. i watched some of runs house earlier, it's addictive.

I think thats it for tonight.
enjoy my boring blog!
love, victoria.

my brother is sort of like me, but ten times worse.

so tonight i ordered some japanese food (well, i didn't order it) and when it came i sat down ready to tuck into my yasai bento box and my ten don rice with tempura and what do i find? WE'VE BEEN GIVEN THE WRONG FOOD! bloody pork bento box and ebi chili rice. i DO NOT do spicy. call me a diva but no. spice + vonny does not work. ever.

anyway, i'm feeling a bit crappy and stuff. i got my new glasses today and they're pretty awesome. they were free on the nhs. god bless britain.

also did a bit of research on cologne for this german paper i have to write. damn, i think it must be one of the only nice places in germany. my mother is set on going to berlin next year so i can "practice speaking german to real german people" but it seems a bit...industrial (read: boring). i am going to try and convince her to go cologne-igan instead.

anyway, i don't have much more to stay. i changed my mind about the writing once a day thing, as you might have guessed.

oh, yeah, i got a new ipod. i put pingu on it.

the partys alright, i might wanna stop drinkin'

technology is shit. it's against me.
i was all excited after downloading a programme called 'Audacity' and it's one that you can remix songs on. So i downloaded it and because the internet hates our computer, i thought i could be clever (ha) and put it onto my memory card and then it might let me put it onto my computer, but no, the bastard doesn't want to work, whats with that?!

Bastard technology is out to get me nowadays.
oh wait, i just had an idea, let me see..
YES
I just beat technology, ahahahahahahahahaha!!!
i fucking win, this time technology,

victoria 1, technology 0.
parttyyyy!!!

oh before i forget, theres this man on the way home that walks his dog, and always says hello and as me and my little sister were walking back i had my had in my pocket and he stopped, and said "yer, thats right hide your gun in your pocket!" He never fails to make me laugh. He also always says have a nice evening. bless. i do love him.


anyway i best go now, i'm gonna start doing some remixes. YES!

-victoria. (1-0 to me bitch!)

oh wait, now i need to change file types. shit. sheridan'll help me. phew.
thank god for sheridan, now i'm gonna start remixing woopwoop

you have a smelly bum.

i am going to post every day for this october week. 

today i found a stray kitten lying by the roadside so i stopped my tricycle and put the kitten in the basket underneath the handlebars and drove it back home. when i showed my dad he said "no, you cannot keep it. it smells and it's not clean, it will make a mess." but i didn't want to get rid of it so i decided to hide it in my sock drawer.

later on that night after a vicious game of slapsies with my little brother (he owned me) i took a can of tuna and a couple of prawns to hugh-ee jackonelli (this is what i named the kitten. mr nelli for short) and he gobbled them up like a greedy bugger of a cat.

my mother made sloppy fish pie for dinner and when she wasn't looking i folded it up in my napkin and took it to hugh-ee. he was very grateful, although he wished it had been less cheesy.

okay, bye!

i feel like coughing ALL THE TIME.

i have a really bad cough. the kind that when you cough it doesn't clear your throat so you need to cough all the live long day. bastards.

last night rebecca and i watched sex and the city. damn, it was good. so girly and wonderful. i need to actually start reading and watching and doing more intellectual things (hahaha) because recently i've just been reading diary of a crush and eating galaxy (twin pack for £1.50 kids!).

today we are meant to be going to look at fish with my little brother. what an exciting life i lead.

also, i have a german essay to hand in a week today, what the fuck. it has to be written all in past tense. i'm so glad that online translators exist.

i can't think of anything else interesting to tell you except a) i ordered some books of amazon and b) i think i am going to buy a holga.

(p.s read motherfudging sarra manning books. they are incredible.)

Being friends with an octopus.

I didn't even know we were still using this. I feel really, really bad right now. I've neglected our poor baby and have failed to pay love support. For this, feel free to punish me.

I'm sat here wondering what to type after a foookin amazing week. But Vic keeps distracting me because she wants me to look at how big the womans arse is on Extreme Makeover: Home edition. It's pretty big.

Love Charlotte

I’m glad that you were waiting with me, tell me all about your day...

Looks like we made it into the papers kiddos, They could of used better photos though, ah well, better look next time!

we're not in kansas anymore.

I am on my new macbook. It is beautiful.

I would like to take this opportunity to apologise to Vic about her film. It's not fucking fair that these things happen, especially to wonderful people. Life really can be shit.

On the point of life being shit I would like to post some religious sayings.

Shit happens - Taoism

Shit happens but it isn't really shit - Buddhism

If shit happens it's your fault - Catholicism

Let shit happen to someone else - Protestantism

Why does shit always happen to us? - Judaism

Just some of the religious sayings about shit that I found on a postcard in the Religious Moral and Philosophical Studies base at school. I've realised that I see my RMPS/Philosophy teacher Mr Nixon more than my own father. Although that's not hard.

Two weeks time - Mystery Jets. Oh yeaaa, for the like 6th time.

Over and out kids,

- Vonny x

i never thought i'd get so upset over a roll of film

but after waiting 2 years to see the spinto band, when you wait a week to get it developed and then you get told they all had double exposure, it makes you want to cry. Even more so when there were shit loads of funny pictures on the camera and those pictures were some good memories.

fucking shitty day i'm so upset over a roll of film
its actually pathetic.
arghhh

vic-wants to cry her eyes out-toria. x

I FUCKING

LOVE

THE SPINTO BAND!!
