Number 1.0.0

This is my 100th post

It took some bloody time to get here,but it did.

I have now typed and blogged about anything and everything utterly dumb and meaningfull,meaningless,ironic,silly,sad,happy and unfortunetly true about my life and just stuffs in general(i love useing that word to kill grammer!) all over the course of 100 posts.

WAHAY!! achievement :)

Also checked that little stats box,to see if anyone actually is reading this little 'not-too-exciting' blog,and according to it I get 17 hits a day..........yes i said a DAY! Ok to a lot of people thats nothing compared to like 100 views a day or 1000,but for someone like me who doesnt 'advertise' there blog everyday on facebook,twitter etc etc blah blah blah and just has a simple little link on my facebook page, thats pretty FREAKING SWEET!

So to those 17 viewers i get each day, Cheers, thanks for reading. I know I talk a lot of shite sometimes and i leave big gaps and im seriously lacking in photographic embellishments, but i promise you, come christmas this is gonna be a very different blog :)

So....I did end up dyeing my hair,its amazing when you shop around you realise how a lot of pharmacies add a few extra euros onto the price of hairdye when compared to larger stores. Tried 2 different pharmacies in Dundrum on Wednesday night. Myself and Liane ended up in good old Tescos and I settled for Nice n' Easy medium Dark Auburn thinking I had made the right choice in going for the lighter shade. But seeing as EVERYBODY LIES and that includes hair dye boxes, I now have very very dark hair again.NOT medium dark auburn. I was a little dissapointed with the results as I thought it made my face look pale and washed out,so my hair is now ultra dark(not black) and it looks reddish in the light. It will get lighter after a few washes and the feedback ive been getting has been pretty good so i guess i should stop complaining and try and work with this new reddish raven-esque mulleee i got going on.

Its a bank holiday weekend at the mo and im shacked up at home babysitting my crew while the rents are out having a social life, so im basically the social outcast this weekend,boohoo, as I will be pulling pints and not drinking them on saturday night. I have no complaints about that, Im just not looking forward to the fact that after this weekend I havent much time to be messing around. I have 4 essays due next month!!!!! and I am freaking out.Thank christ for reading week next week and the extra hour in bed, If i can kill down two of those essays next week it will be such a relief and then maybe I can relax! So if theres a big lacking of blogging next month its because I have deadlines to meet till the 25th and i Intend to make sure i meet them!

anyway going to rap this up and chill with a cup of tea and some oreos in my lovely cosy bed to watch Nick and Norahs Infinite Playlist!

Bliss

3am sandwich's and 3 euro drinks

Realised I havent blogged in while again.....the actual effort of this sometimes.

Anyway the last past 2weeks have been a continuous blur of essay deadlines, lab reports and stupid computer programming that you later find out you actually dont have to do anymore(what a relief that was......) Last weekend was J-Dizzles 21st

cant believe that big baby is now actually sociocally accepted as a 'man'! jokes. naaaah it was good fun,i was paticularly looking forward to it as it was my first night out in ros

since JULY where I could actually get dressed up and have a proper night out,yeah i know what a sad life i have! But for reals, I had spent most of summer going to rockies or to town sober after work dressed all casual, so technically i deserved to get all dolled up and hammered :)

I wore a little red/burgundy-ish- i dunno what colour to call it-body con dress and some major kick-ass heels that i bravely teetered in all night with some dutch courage.

Slash of crimson gloss and my new bow necklace and i was good to go.

Id like to sum the night up in one.......but i cant ha!

Jaager would be a good start? Terribly wobbly, Lost my phone :( :(

Night ended apparently at around 8 in the morning.........sweet

Not so sweet? Chris's snoreing,Brian dissapearing,girls being twats and Jagermeister at 7.30 in the morning....DEVILS DRINK,takes away your dignity and your smarts.........not that i had any to begin with...........

anyway we all jus chilled and ate the next day,i felt like such a dude cos i was basically the last girl standing.I am an eejit.And im pretty bloody sure i left a pair of earrings at the house :/ ugh

anyway im sitting here contemplating what the hells to do with my hair? cut it? dye it? hair

extensions? leave it? im so bloody BORRRRRRED with my hair,i swear it is actually the longest ive ever gone with this type of style,i know the side fringe-mid-length-browny-slightly tosseled-hair is my thing,but im just plain fed up with it.

Im considering doing somehting drastic colour wise and have been toying with the idea of useing good old Stargazer on my hair,in a very deep shade of red/eggplant or whatever other sexay colour theyve got in temple bar,

either that or stay that same.........for another decade. SOMEONE HELP ME DECIDE :(

Sun kissed skin so hot we'll melt your popsicle

Sitting here in the library,should be working.....but i keep getting distracted.

Funny thing is, this is the place where people come to work or study, the library is where i come and do most of my thinking. Which really does defeat the purpose altogether for me.

But i can help it, il start to work and then as always i'll drift off thinking about things that have NOTHING to do with the antiquity of art history or sociological theory in practice.

Im such a failure for a second year.

I usually end up thinking about things I want to do or things I havent done,what the people next to me are doing and if the really cute guy with the pierceing blue eyes across from me actually is playing footsie with me or not(im sure its just accidental, guys with devastatingly good looks and eyes that could see into your soul dont play footsie in the UCD library.....) *sigh*

To be honest i think hes a bit slow on the uptake anyway,ive been playing footsie back and hes been mulling over one paragraph for the last hour and a half,no joke.ah wellllllll!

I'll blog about last weekend in the next installment for now im in a pensive mood and feel like having a little bit of a rant, im not in the best of moods today so heres where i take out my frustration!

Everyday while ive been in UCD, I have been constantly second guessing myself in absolutely everything i do. I have never been the type of person who will make a choice and be happy with it,i do that with everything though, clothes, food,magazines,boys and hell even deciding what to download to my laptop! I have this annoying little trigger in my brain that as soon as i have to make a choice about something ......"DING'' over analyse,over think,second guessing! It absolutely drove me INSANE last year and it always made me feel like as if i was never playing the game properly and i was only playing for half the time i normally should be. That sounds weird but whatever! Thankfully this year ive taken a more 'fuck it you only live once' attitude and it has had it pay offs and its downfalls. Im still me though, i think ive found the balence in living my life the way i want to without all the worry but still being aware of the results of my actions.........but i still can never pick put what to wear in the morning :P 3 wardrobe changes later and im eventually satisfied!

With all the choices i made in the last 2years plus, it made me think, where would i be now if i had chosen differently? For certain, i know i definetly would not be in UCD. My life would have been a lot different. I was 'supposed' to not do TY and go straight into 5th year so i could take a year out after the LC to travel for a year. I could have done an art portfolio and possibly be in a an art college somewhere painting whatever i felt like came to me and try to pass it off as 'art'. I could have gone to college in New York to study womens studies at NYU. I could have gone to a performing arts school. I might have decided not to bother furthering my education and just move to america and started to work straight away. I actually could have moved to austrailia or dubai, if it wasnt for the fact that we couldnt just drop everything and leave to go halfway around the world just because the work suited my dad. I could have done a MILLION things differently. I dont regret the fact that im still in ireland and im in UCD,thats what i knew was achieveable for the time being. All good things come to those who wait, but even better things happen to those who choose to make the good things to happen. Im bideing my time at the minute trying and scrapping to get my BA so i can hopefully get a job somewhere out of this messed up country and make something of myself without all the second guessing. Because that the irish way of doing things, always thinking you could have done better and could have worked harder, so i cannot wait to get the hell away from that ethos and actually be satisfied and content with the bigger picture for once in my life.

No wonder we ran ourselves into a financial debt-pit of depression.

Us irish,we're NEVER satisfied.

Working on a proper post,ive gotten so lazy :/

Adore this guy,he can sing and hes Irish AND hes hott! triple threat.NOM!

I PROMISE not to turn this into one of those blogs/tumblrs where all they do is post pictures.
I just adore this still and where shes resting and the innocent question that shes asking 'fred'
If youve ever seen the movie 'Breakfast at Tiffanys' you'll know that this isnt some sleazy post/pre-sex scene. Hollie had crept into Freds apartment, they had just met that day and she was trying to escape some desperado she had stupidally brought home with her.She jumped down the fire escape and into Freds safe abode. He didnt really mind,but he was slighty embaressed as he was not dressed and his 'sugamamma' had just left after getting her mid-week fix. Hollie pours him a drink and pours herself a double and they both light up a cigg and talk casually for a while,quizzing each other about there 'work' and life. Hollie reveals little pieces of her life and her brother back home on the farm,turns out he joined the army and needs to come home,so holly ran away from her homeplace to New York to try and make money(by the only way she knew how....trying to marry a rich man) She wanted to be able to start a life for herself and her brother when he comes home,but shes failing.
Fred, reveals nothing, hollie is curious about him and well she should be, Fred is casually sleeping with a married woman who has more money in the bank then all hes worth. As a struggling writer he entertains his sugamamma and lets her buy him an apartment in Hollie's complex and decorate it out to her taste with her husbands money. Everytime sugamamma leaves she leaves fred a few 50's. Quite shocking isnt it in the broad spectrum of things.
Hollie knows none of this but is rightly suspicious,but she still sees kindness in Fred and continues to talk and relax with Fred, she curls up beside him in bed,looks up at him with her big brown eyes and asks rather innocently 'we are friends arent we?' The sweetness and childlike manner in which she asks this shows how fragile and troubles this girl is, the girl who dresses in pearls and black pencil-skirted dresses made for ladies,and smiles with a glint in her eye. But shes just a broken little scared girl inside.Goes to show you how vunerable people can be and how they can reveal that to you in the most unbeknowing of ways.
I love this scene

And for those who've never seen it, watch this,probably one of the most famous scenes, moonriver.
