Summer Approaches!

uWell we're in May already. Gosh! I don't know about you but it doesn't seem 5 minutes since I was at my sister's Christmas party making Playdoh Mr. Potato Head's with my 5 yr old niece and younger nephews haha!

Time is indeed moving on and most noticeably by the fact that my hair is now touching my shoulders. I intend to grow it longer though. I'm also wanting to go blonde. I would love to be a natural light blonde. I just can't afford the maintence at the moment. I don't trust box colours, especially as I've just been told that my hair has an underlying pigment of gold. I don't want it to go brassy. If I got it professionally coloured, it's about £22 every 6 weeks for a root touch-up. (You can get a contract phone for that much.) If you don't get the roots done though, it's gonna look really odd. Especially with the contrast of my mousey brown against a really light blond. Maybe highlights would be OK though!

So now hair's been discussed, what else is there? Shane and I plan to go Alton Towers this week so I'm gonna check the weather for that in a mo. I've got to go the job centre this week. Argh. lol. The jobsearch points (more like motherships) I go on seem to have problems recently. For example, one that I used, you press Continue to go on to the next page of available jobs and it just wasn't having any of it. You can bash away at it til next year but that new page isn't going to show. Little good it would do anyway. Bah! More jobs in food as a kitchen assistant, I noticed. They seemed to be ten a penny, but even those seem to be dwindling down as of late. I can hardly make myself a cup of tea and I have no common sense so I'm not going to be any use in a kitchen, am I?

Next... er, music! I'm starting to get back on track with my music, I think. I'm still kinda disheartened that I've not had anyone go WOW about tracks I have composed recently. Maybe they need to be more original, maybe I need to just spend more time on them. I think I have the potential to write good songs, especially because the track "How 2 Belong" that I wrote and produced with Tommy seems to have alot of fans. I've got a kind of computer-game electropop tinge to my tracks currently, but maybe that's just not cutting the mustard, maybe I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board. I DO know that I'm loving Bat For Lashes' song "Daniel" at the moment. It's such an evocative piece with such smart, elegant lyrics! Her voice rocks too!

Shane's been working today so it's not been like a normal Sunday. I did see him earlier though, which was great! We watched lots of "Just For Laughs" on Fiver. That's a great show, that is! A bit distasteful when this fake cleaner picked up a shovel of fake dog poo and threw it at passers by. Their reactions were priceless though and we laughed out louddddd. Fiver's also showing the Da Vinci Code film next Sunday. My parents are away so Shane will be stopping over and I think we may watch it. I hear the books quite good! I've not heard about the film. I've still got to watch Rugrats in Paris. It was one of my play.com impulse buys. £2.11 free delivery. How can one say no? I loved the first Rugrats Movie, so it had to be done. I'll see if Shane will watch it with me. He best not fall asleep watching it :P

Is there anything else I can talk about? Erm. Oh, I saw this Tamagotchi Music Star thing the other day, and it reminded me of how much I used to LOVE cyber pets. Did you all have them? I had an amazing orange talking cat one. "Talking Nano Kitty" One's for sale online, unopened for £67 o.O I don't know where mine is. =( Obviously it's been used though. Another thing I saw was a COLOUR Tamagotchi! They're only in Japanese and they have a backlit colour screen! The casing was VERY cheap and plain looking though. But anyway, the Tamagotchi Music Star allows you to take the old one to a new level by allowing it to become a music star! It's hardly going to be X Factor, is it? A melodic beep beep noise and a screen with as many pixels as peas on my Sunday lunch. A price tag of £12.49 too. I believe the original was £9.99. I was happy with the cheaper alternatives tbh. Though I did treat myself to the Talking Nano Kitty back in 1997 and I also bought a dalmation one that woofed. It was in the shape of a dog and I bought it from a school friend for £8. Those 2 were the best Cyber Pets, in my opinion.

Wow, this blog has turned into a mini novel. If you're still reading, well done! Or maybe it's well done me for writing something that kept you so hooked! (I wish) lol.

More to come! (Tomorrow, maybe) =P
