Sooo last night we went to watch Black Christmas... it was not scary... it made me jump at one part that wasnt even scary... it was full of girls screaming which is really annoying and it had a silly story line... ahhh what more could we really expect lol! 2/10 .....
Last night Ally & me decided to do something sisterly and wanted to make gingerbread! we made our first house, and part way thru our fun Caroline decided to join in too!! so the 3 of us were sat round till late at night cooking batches and batches of gingerbread!!! Here's some of our results!!!
It was our first gingerbread house... its not bad but ally still isnt overly happy with it hehehe next year we're gonna do better!!! I also made a miffy head(which i forgot to mark a face on) and a poo haha (not winnie the pooh). Using the pooh cutters was fun!! tho their ears kept breaking when transfering the dough to baking trays hehehe but i think they're all pretty good.. but anyways they're yummy so we wont be complaining!!!
Tonight we went to watch Deja Vu! I was tired so it took a lot of effort to go watch it haha...
we thought it would be a good film to watch as the trailer looked pretty boring and we didnt get too hyped up about it.. I love Denzel Washington to bits!!!
So anyways set in New Orleans its all about a bomb and things and fed investigation la-di-da... and it was good!! well i thought it was :) easily 7/10... glad we chose to watch it!! the story line wasnt the sort of film i thought it was gonna be but it kinda worked.. ^.^
Sooo this weekend I was in Cardiff and it was lovely :) that's all I'll say haha!! before i went on Friday i went to the PO and picked up my O3 Secret Santa hehehe silly sender put the return addy on my box(i dont really mean to say that my ss is silly tho)... so i know who its from hehehe but i'm being really good and not opened it.... tho i really want to... and its taunting me 24/7 as its sat on my desk just waiting for xmas day!!!
Sooo anyways back to Cardiff... I was pretty scared that i wouldnt even make it there... luckily we'd left about 30 mins for me to get my tickets and things in MK.... i put my reference code into the fastticket machine and it only printed out tickets from Cardiff to MK for Sunday... so i went to the gates and asked the guy.. he went on to check my reference on 3 different systems and each one said a different thing... machine 1 said i had reservations both ways but wouldnt print out my tickets for me, machine 2 said that i had ticket one way, and machine 3 said i didnt have any tickets at all!!! So after all the kerfuffle, Mr Virgin Train man took me to the office on the platform and had to write me out a ticket lol... so then i was on my way, thankfully catching the train i was supposed to ^.^
^.^ watched Tenacious D again and its just a funny as the first time i saw it haha..Managed to pick up the jelly fish winnie the pooh hehehe not my luck tho :P also got 2 christmas log winnie the poohs hehehe i was only looking for one tho but its my fav from the xmas set this year but i'm missing just the angel now... Tho i wish i had the gingerbread man that was in the xmas set last year!! actually i much prefer the christmas set 1 to this years!!!
Hehehe Lovely Pocoyo goodness, inc my custom clearmind Pocoyo by Shakey hehehe!!! ^.^ Tho the Pocoyo poster is a bit battered now :( but still gets much love!! and winnie the poohs cutters that i will use for gingerbread this week when my sis comes back... hehehe and also my new pencil case (i was needing one!!) a little sticker making machine in a box and a mirror to decorate for my room hehehe
why the winnie the poohs in their suits are not in focus i do not know... i've taken the pic like 5 times and each time it is the same... ahhh silly camera phones eh!!!
Also Shakey gave me the last of my Podgypanda prints hehehe!! LOVELY STUFF!!!!
Soooo anyway on Sunday my return journey was nearly as bad as my journey there... or actually i think it was worse!!! Went to the station ontime to catch my train... little did we know that the train drivers had decided not to do that journey... so I kinda wanted to panic cos there were later trains to Brum but I wouldnt be able to back to MK till the next morning as I would have to stay in Brum overnight to wait for the morning trains :( soooo the guy swapped my ticket to London Paddington... usually i wouldnt have minded but i was feeling a bit ill from drinking all day... and being stuck on the train, tube and then train was not good for me and I was just sooo tired and worn out too!! urgh!!! No luck with trains this week!!!!
Since being back I've been feeling a bit down... serve me right for thinking eh!!! aiiiii it's 'Ho Sun Fu' and i feel like someone should be stamping on every good bit of me... grrrrr but still i'm happy really... just sometimes distracted by crappiness!!!
Also reading Alan's Blog always makes me chuckle :) go check it out if u have time!! I'm gonna go abuse him on Msn now haha
Sooooo today I got back to MK and found a postal delivery slip for me... arghhhh Is it my Secret Santa???? who knows!! so anyway i really want to find out what it is... tho it could be a diff package altogether... but i cant wait to know... and then if it is my SS is it wrapped?? or shall i not open the box at all till Xmas day just incase... arghhhh but then that suspense of waiting another week and half will kill me ..... *runs around the room like a headless chicken* i dunno what to do with myself.... hehehe ^.^
Tomorrow off to Cardiff ^.^ yay!!!
What's on your holiday wish list?
ahhh where to start... a baby penguin... i really really want a baby penguin... or maybe a baby panda... hehehe
but really what i want... hmmm some plush, some vinyl figures... one thing that i'd love but i know i wont get is some tokidoki bags... *sigh* hopefully i can get an iPod Nano for cheap... ummm there's not really anything specific i want.. i just wish that i didnt have to spend any money and ppl dont spend on me... my sis has already told me what she bought me for xmas... i asked for it... hehehe... The Little Mermaid 2 disc set... i did ask her for slippers too (do ppl actually ask for things like this!?!?!? but my house is really cold and i really need some new ones) but i'm not getting a pair anymore... but i will get something else instead...

Soooo this Friday i went to watch Pan's Labyrinth... WOW WOW I actually didnt know much about the movie when i went in... but soon i was engrossed in it and it was just beautiful... a dark fairy tale... It's def worth a watch 10/10 cos it was just spectacular hehehe

On Monday i was sooo tired but made it for my hours and hours of taxation lecture/seminar... URGH!!!!
Tues went to lessons and managed to get our International Money & Finance Interim Report done... we just made it all up hehehe ^.^ Tues night headed on back to MK!!!
Weds woke up early and Caroline made breakkie for us! Then we sat around for a while and about 12-1ish we went to the train station and made our way to London ^.^
Got to Leics Sq. station and went to Sun Luen for some Bubble Tea and i had a chinese pear and pineapple juice and we had a 'gay mei bao' and a sausage bun too ^.^ YUMMY!!! Picked up our tickets for The Nightmare Before Christmas 3D and then headed over to FP to have a look around, Caroline bought a couple of Jack bits, had a quick look around Covent Garden, and then we walked over to Playlounge hehehe had a bit of a browse in there and bought a little present ^.^
Made our way quickly back to Vue @ Leics Sq as we were a bit pressed for time.. we didnt get to go up Carnarby Street at all!! Soooo anyways I'd promised to take Caroline to see NBX 3D for her Xmas present hehehe ^.^ We both thought it was great tho it did hurt my eyes a little bit!!!
Sooo afterwards we made our way to 15 Oxford Street for Ghetto Extravaganza... took us 5-10mins ish to get round the corner of Oxford Circus... it was amazingly busy and no one was moving... grrr!!! anyways the show is definately worth a look if ur in the area!!!! My pics r pretty bad and out of focus... damn my unsteady hand and camera phone hehehe
Sooo anyways afterwards we made our way to Liverpool St :) after calling Pete(Django) and following his instructions we finally found him & Alison and made our way to the bar... got in there and found ppl!!! but anyways was extra shy and didnt want to go haha!! but after a few drinks I was a little better ^.^
Sooo me and Caroline were just gonna stay for a drink as I had to drop off a print for Pete... then we found out M&K (TADO) were on their way so we stayed a little longer :P It was a really cool night and as well as meeting Pete, Alison I got to meet other octomonkeys that I hadnt met before (nice to meet Mimic) as well as ones i had and M&K and MAD.. It was a great experience and next time I promise myself to not be sooo bloody shy...
After spending way too much time there... we had to leave :(
but we were completely content with our day!!!!
On the way back we bumped into Aaron on the way to the train so we had some company on the way back!! ^.^
