My Hottest Pictures

As my dad has recently just reorganised all our photographs onto the network drive, I decided that I'll find some good ones to put on my blog. However, then I thought what was the fun in that? So instead, I have put some of my least attractive photos up. ENJOY!

A collage of photos from 2003-2007. Click for a close ups of my dashing visage.

I don't have any photos from before 2003, as they all physical prints or rolls of film. And as for ones after 2007, they are just too recent and embarressing for the viewing of world-wide-web. Perhaps in another 5 years time, I'll put some more up!

Au revoir!

P.S. I'm sorry that this post is so short and brief - I couldn't think of what to blog about.
P.P.S. Just like to give out to a huge thanks to everyone who has been on my blog today! I have had the most views today on my blog ever since it's birth - over 200 views woop! It may not seem like very many to most people, but I'm so proud! 
P.P.P.S I am going to Paris tomorrow morning for a few days, so I'm not too sure what's going to happen to BEDIE. I am informed that there is internet at the hotel that we are staying at, and also I am bringing my laptop, so I will try as hard as possible to blog the entire duration that I'm on holiday, promise!

A diary entry from 3rd April 2007

Today I was a bit brain dead for what to write for today's post, so I looked in one of my old note books and found a diary entry I wrote 5 years ago on this very day, when I was 10 years old. Back then during the holidays, I would also aim to try and write longer diary entries, but would often fail as I wasn't very persistent. However, this day was one where I actually wrote alot, and I thought I might as well share it with you guys. I do still remember this day very vividly as I was during the Easter holidays, and I did enjoy it very much. Below, I have copied out the diary entry, letter for letter, thus there are some terrible spelling mistakes, but I thought I might as well leave them in for authenticity.

3rd April 2007
Today was a cool day coz it was Kathryn's b-day! lol! In the mornin' I woke up and got dressed (as usual). I was gunna wear the pink top I love but mum was stupid and didn't wash da clothes so I had to wear this green choosbi top. 

Anyway, Mary came round and we dug a hole and found clay. Mary came round because it was Kathryn's birthday. Yay! 

Kathyrn party was sooo cool We went to the pottery project as it was amazing! lol before that, when Kathryn picked me up and Mary. It was sooo imbarasing coz the house was a tip! 
Anyway, at the party we chose an object to paint. I chose a gecko. I really wanted the penguin but the other Rebecca allready picked it up. Grrr!!Anyway, my gecko looked quite good, but I think I did too many dots on it! Oh well! By the time the other Rebecca had done three things, most of us only had done one!

After the painting, we went back to KT's house. We played in the garden for a while. We did this couse thing. It was really dumb coz Emma, she went round to the shed leaving Mary, Ellie and me behind when when me and ellie did it, we got told off well badly! Stupid Emma. Then we ate and watched this "Queen's Nose" which was sooo lame but the "Clutter Nutters" was on and that was good. Then we played more games and then we went home. 

Just before I started writing this, I made a timetable of what I'm gunna do in the holidays. By gum I've made myself do a lot of work! (I signed it) The holiday isn't really a holiday for me! I've given myself to much work. Oh well, it's good me isn't it? I'm getting tired now so nighty-night. 

P.S. How come no one is every on Msn? It wierd!

My thoughts on the diary entry

• My style of writing back then is still so similar to how it is now. I still over use exclamation marks and have terrible spelling
• I don't think your stupid Emma! I just call anyone who annoyed me stupid. It just got really angry back then as I got into trouble for going round the back of the shed, when she didn't! I remember there was a Tracy Beaker style wig in that shed, and it amused us greatly by trying it on.
  
• I clearly remember digging up the clay, and then making it into a little man who we then painted with a red long sleeved t-shirt and blue jeans. However, since he was made out of clay we literally dug up, he quickly disintegrated and limbs were falling out. 
• I am still really proud of my gecko that I painted. I'll insert an image of it here.

Still quite pleased with how this turned out.

I thought I was hilarious by writing "Hand Painted by Me"

• I can't believe I wrote "by gum". 
• Even back then I was obsessed with the Internet, and I remember chatting on MSN with a variety of emoticons was all the rage.  
• I also used to use P.S. in my diary entries then, as I do now!!!
• In addition, back then I also used to miss out words when I wrote my diary entry! This is something only my friend the other week pointed out - sometimes when I write posts quickly or do not proof read them, I have sentences that have entire words omitted and I would not notice. This is mostly likely simply because my brain is working faster than my fingers. I suppose I had the same problem even back then. 

My conclusion
Reading this diary entry back again has just made me realised I haven't particularly changed over the last 5 years. Yes, I have matured, but my attitude, things that get me annoyed and priorities in life really haven't changed. I still care alot about my clothes, get easily annoyed by some situations, and am very motivated and driven to do something productive during holidays. However, with the last point, I never seem to succeed in.

Even though it is only technically the second day of the Easter break, I am already getting into some sort of weird routine, that I strangely enough seem to really be enjoying:

• 10.00-11.00am: wake and get up
• 12.00-12.30pm: have brunch/lunch/breakfast
• 12.30- 8.00pm: mill around all day doing pointless stuff
• 8.00-10.00pm: do some Chinese revision
• 10.00pm-11.00pm: write a blog post
  
• 11.00pm-1.00am: read the hunger games
• 1.00-10.00am: sleep
• ...et répétez

Love,

Memoirs of being a Runescape Keeno

Back in the days of 2004, I was a fully-fledged Runescape keeno - I absolutely loved that game. If you don't know what it is, Runescape is basically "a fantasy massively multiplayer online role-player game" according to Wikipedia. You have a little avatar, who you can train, level up on skills such as prayer skills by burrying bones (wtf ikr), kill NPC monsters, complete quests, or interact with other players by chatting, trading or killing in the "Wilderness".

The old Runescape logo I used to know and love

I was in year 4 when I started playing the game, as my sister played it and as you do being the younger sibling, I just had to copy and play as well. I remember during the later part of year 5, some boys in my class started to play the game too, but I had already been playing for way over a year, so I thought I was just so cool, since I was better than all the boys.

Why I was a Runescape Keeno:

•  I was level 56.
• I know that lots of people are higher levels than this, but at this point,  I could fish for lobsters and chop down yew trees - I had basically unlocked everything that a non-member could do. I wasn't stupid enough to spend real money on becoming a member so I didn't level up anymore, even though it was possible. This was the sad point when I stopped playing Runescape, as there was nothing new left to do!
• I looked awesome.  
•  By the end of year 4, I had pretty much the best outfit, that your little person could possibly have. My username was "Mariella" as I really liked the name Maria/Marie at that time in my life, and she had aquamarine hair tired in a pony tail, and full suite of rune armour which consisted of a rune plate body, armour skirt, and helmet. I also had a rune shield and rune skirt too. This was pretty much the best that a non-member could wear.



I basically wore this, but with a skirt instead (but I had both as I was cool like that)

• I also had so many limited edition holiday editions such Santa hats and a yo-yo (that you could do tricks on) which would probably be worth a fortune now on Ebay, which is quite unfortunate, as if you don't play on it for 6 months, your account is deleted, so "Mariella" is long gone! 
•  My favourite though, was this rubber chicken which was only avaliable from 21st March 2005 for two weeks. I remember you could whack people around the head with it.  

• I completed every single quest for a non-member

•   Yup, I was that keen. Quests were basically little adventures/storylines that you would complete by doing tasks, killing monsters and interacting with NPCs in order to get cash rewards, skill points or special items and abilities. I remember "training" long and hard to get my levels up high enough so I could complete the final quest, which was "Dragon-slayer". This was basically a task where you had to slay a Level 83 Dragon, which was very hard - at least for a 9 year old girl! Once I finally reached level 50, I was good enough to kill the dragon, but I the first time I attempted it, I died! If you don't know, when you die, you drop everything that you carry, so I would've been absolutely devastating if you were to, as everything that you were carrying would be lost (like armour). Luckily, I had befriended a nice guy, who had the magical ability to pick up items that you physically cannot reach, so he was nice and picked up all my expensive armour, and then I tried again and suceeded! I was honestly so happy that day.

• I memorised the entire map of the Runescape world for a non-member

•  Yes, I played the game so much (pretty much every day for a year - not even exaggerating)  that I knew my way round the entire land of Runescape without having to look at the map. I also knew all the short cuts that you could take and where all the good mines were for harvesting runes and fishing etc. One place I never explored though was "The Wilderness" - which apprently no longer exists! - where you could kill other players and steal their stuff. People would go round in "clans" and attack people together, in order to have their possessions. I was always scared of the Wilderness, so I hardly ever went there, in fear of losing my precious rune armour and rubber chicken. 

After I stopped playing Runescape, I started playing some other RPGs as well, but they were never as good. I played "Puzzle Pirates", but it was rubbish if you weren't a member, and also I never really got how it worked. Next was "Club Penguin", but at this stage I found it super childish and boring. I actually kind of miss those types of games though, perhaps I should start playing some again!

So that's about it. I wish I was a 9 years old and playing Runescape again. Those were the days.

Signing off!

P.S.Yesterday was the last day of my BEDIHT, but as you probably may or may not (probably not!) have not noticed that I failed to post yesterday, which is absolutely terrible. However, I was so sleep deprived to the extent of having a terrible headache, so I went to sleep at 8pm, which for me, is extremely early! Anyway, I did managed to post 9 times in total over half term and since there were 9 days in half term, I think I have succeeded! Yippee!
P.P.S I know I said a few posts ago I hated this song, but this song is growing on me! I love Sleigh Bells, and how they have juxtaposed the hard thrash-y sound with the bubblegum pop melody. It's definitely something that you either love or hate.
