Weird Dreams :)

I've spent the greater part of today crocheting like a granny on speed.

I feel I've found my inner elderly person 40 years too soon - feels intense man.

I felt so good as I walked into the craft shop yesterday and took arm fulls of wool from the shelves. It was a life changing moment for me.

It felt even better when I finally got home and connected a new ball of wool to my rapidly growing quilt.

You really have to try this shizz my friends. It will give you such a new perspective on everything! I was texting my friend (who also has a crocheting addiction) and I feel like she and I have this great new understanding on things. We send messages to each other asking 'What colour will you be adding next?' or 'How big is yours now?' (LOOOOOOOL) It's a very special friendship. We also are jogging buddies and Tom Cruise movie buddies I kind of really love her. Her level of awesomeness is beyond reason.

How do I even know these kinds of people?! I am so blessed!

Do you know? There is nothing more annoying than seeing emo-ness when you are at a good stage in life. It's like, it reminds you that there are times when you will want to just cry into your pillow.

I don't really want to remember the last time I did that...for the wrong reason at least - like heartbreak.
I don't mind crying because of intense happiness and gratefulness.

Ok so Easter weekend has many wonderful things about it.
The beginning of a new Doctor Who series is one of those reasons.
Ok I just need to freak out a little -

ADSIFHLKSDJF AKSDGHLAKSDJGLKASDJGLKASDJGLKASDJLKasd!!!!!
TODAYS EPISODE WAS JUST MIND BLOWINGLY GOOD!
THE PROPORTIONS OF GOODNESS JUST PROBABLY CANNOT BE MEASURED WITH
ANY SORT OF MEASURE THERE IS OUT THERE!
ITS LIKE AWESOMENESS OF QUANTUM LEVELS!
IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN IT THEN PLEASE PLEASE WATCH IT!
YOU WILL HONESTLY THANK ME AND SAY 'OH MINNIE, IM SO GLAD YOU REFERRED ME 
TO WATCH THIS BECAUSE IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS MY EYES HAVE EVER COMPREHENDED!'
TODAYS EPISODE MADE ME LAUGH, FEEL DISTRESSED, SCARED, AND COMPLETELY AWED OUT!
CANNOT WAIT FOR NEXT WEEKS! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOO

Yeah, so after I finished watching it I had that feeling - you know, where you want to scream but can't - and I had to somehow direct my spazzing somewhere. So I sent a text to my friends brother telling him how wonderful Doctor Who was and he was like 'Is that something like Star Wars?' (because he has actually experienced the sheer force of my Star Wars obsession when he unfortunately stated that the said movies were rubbish in my presence). I think I may appear slightly mad to the poor dear.

Anyway, this episode of Doctor Who had these aliens who appeared and were like MAJORLY SCARY but when when the people turned away from looking at them they forgot about seeing them.

IT WAS SO SCARY! AND IT WAS A TWO PART EPISODE AND LEFT ON A CLIFF HANGER AND I ALMOST CRIED WITH sFHAKSDJGHSLKDHGLKASDGKANSDGKL-NESS!

I DON'T KNOW HOW I WILL SLEEP TONIGHT!

(for more reasons than one - I have a tummy predicament!)

Easter Sunday tomorrow. I've decided to wear my dress which I have only ever worn once before and I will probably regret because tomorrow when I wake up I will not feel bothered enough to make myself look presentable. And then of course I will feel very self conscious about the fact that I wont be wearing trousers and will be uncomfortable all day long.

I am getting better with controlling my awkward tendencies, but I still have them.

Like the other night, when I was still at convention a group of us were talking late at night and one by one people started leaving to go to bed.

Anyway, it happened that I ended up being the last girl in the room with three guys and suddenly I felt insanely awkward - and I thought they did too.

So I was like, 'Awwwkwwaaarrrrrdddd.'

And then one of them said,

'I don't feel awkward, do you?'

and the other one shook his head.

And my friend just looked at me and smirked knowing that I felt even more awkward now.

So I was just like,

'OKKKKKKKKK then...I'm just going to go to bed now because I feel incredibly awkward.'

THEN when I brushed my teeth that night, I saw that my top lip had actually blown to incredible proportions and my face looked horrendous and I felt even worse knowing that I had looked like that as well as feeling great awkwardness!

OH MY LIFE!

Ah well, its a memory.

My friend told me a few days later that after I'd left, one of the other guys had said,

'Well, we are obviously not animals, because she can't manage us.'

=.= Really funny stuff dude......

And on that note, I shall go to sleep. I should really publish my tales of strange experinces.

I will save the story of the spider for another day.

LOVE YOU MANYS AND LOTS!

From Minnie (whose evening just got a whole lot better - not going into detail)

MUAAAHHHHHHHHH

Proving Love

*Siiighhhh*


I am so darn full...a day of constant eating does tend to do that to me...my stomach has been stretched beyond comprehension.

It's been soooo nice though.

I couldn't sleep properly last night...I don't know if it was because I was excited for Christmas or the fact that I heard my mum and grandma sneak in at about 1am and bring presents in for us to find when we woke up.

To be fair...I was half in and half out of consciousness, but the awake part of me knew what was going on...I think I actually made a sound.

You know those irritated sounds you make when you are nearly asleep and then something disturbs the transition into sleepfulnes and you make a

'AFLASFHKLJSLFKAJ' sound???

Yeah, well I'm quite sure I made one of those sounds.

Then of course, it was kind of hard to drop off when I knew there were presents right near my nose.

Another thing that was unhelpful with my trying to sleep was the fact that I had nested in my sleeping bag on the rug in front of the fire and for some reason (well, the reason is - I LOVE SLEEPING ON THAT RUG) I woke up at three am because I became convinced in my dreams that the fumes from the fire were going to kill me when I slept and I would die before Christmas Day 2010.

So then I crept on the sofa on which Sarah was sleeping and fell asleep until 9am then I woke up...before my younger sibling and started to open my presents.

I WAS SO SPOILED AND BLESSED THIS YEAR!!!

Im so happy happy happy!!! I have some new pastels and they are so colourful and lush I can't even begin to describe my joy.

When they fell out of the colourful christmassy paper I almost pee'd myself with joy at the sight of them.

THEN THEN!! Get this my loves...I OPENED ANOTHER PRESENT AND THERE WERE MORE PASTELS IN IT!!!

ONLY ONLY!! THIS TIME...they were the fine ones...you know??? skinny pencil type ones so I can do those little annoying details that always smudge when I try and do them???

Omgd the happiness overflowed!!!

I got so much more stuffs too...I'm completely happy and feel so blessed and loveliness.

I'm wearing my new Star Wars T shirt too!!!

It LOOKS WELL AWESOME!! I'm very happy with it. When I opened it I got scared when I saw the tag and it said '11 years old' because I had a fleeting thought that it might not fit me and be too short... but it was fine...I'm not even lying, I feel so attractive wearing the Millennium Falcon on my tummy and having the Star Wars logo scribed across my chest...but everyone else thinks I'm immature.

Ok what else did I get.

I got two pairs of slippers, one pair are shaped like scottie dogs...I will enjoy having dogs on my feet.

Annd I got a snuggie thingy WHICH WILL BE OSMMMMM when I am trying to get warm on the sofa at home...but if I am watching Coffee Prince I usually start heating up from the inside anyway.

I got A4 size pastel paper

SOCKS (of course...you have to get socks for Christmas...its like illegal not to)

A pink shirt

Some cute things from Japan from the darlings

Lots of smellies (thats what British people call those bathroom things that smell nice which people always get you for Christmas)

I remember the first year I got some smellies...I felt so grown up.

I got other stuffs too, but I forgot.

Sam opened his presents too, I took video of him ripping the paper off and spitting it out with everyone shouting,

'WELL DONE SAMMMYYYYY'

Proving that once again he is the baby of the family and we spoil him like mad.

It has been the coldest winter on record in England this year...today it was -12 degrees and the world was white with snow...although it didn't actually fall today.

but still...SNOW AT CHRISTMAS!! WOOHOOO!!!

Yes yes, I know I'm acting a little crazy...I get crazy on days like these.

I love being British you know...it's so excellent to be British...we are so weird.

I REALLY wanted to watch the Doctor Who Christmas special and I'd watched about 10 minutes of it when my other family came to visit and grandma wanted to turn the tv off because she said it was rude to watch TV when everyone was talking.

I guess I will just watch it online later....but omdays the bit I saw WAS ASFLDSNKSL and and!!! Matt Smith looks extra nommable in this episode...I mean, I always thought he was cute, but he looks slightly edible in the Christmas Episode...I was quite shocked at myself..

Darn me and my love for sci fi men...

but Doctor Who just takes the biscuit...his pronunciation is so good.

WOW, Im just so sleepy AND MY FEET ARE FREEZING!

Ohhh it's Boxing Day already!!!

Christmas day 2010 is officially over.

And on that note, I shall hitteth the sack.

Goodnight Dear Ones, I hope you had a very Merry and lovely Christmas and that you were as happy as I was ... if not, then moreso.

Love From Minnie who is VERY full
