Right so ive been asked to write about a memory that i have shared with Laura over the years. So after having a think and sifling through the many amazing moments we have shared over the years I came up with this one, small but simply unforgettable.
So we were just sitting casually at the back of physics one day in Year 10 bored as anything (as usual) when from next door we just heard this "whooooooaahhh" five minutes later me and laura both looked at each other and went "THE HOKEY COKEY" and burst out laughing! It was incredibly hilarious at the time .
Just a little snippet from the last few years... Amy :)

Another Train Story
This time it is a nice one.
Today we finished college at 1:15 and so Jasmine, Dan and I walked to the station. Of course I missed the 25 passed train and the 25 to and so I was going to sit around Guildford station for just under an hour. Which was fine. But I decided against it and so got the 10 to train that terminated at Haslemere. Which meant that I would have to wait for around half an hour there. But that was fine. I got off the train at Haslemere and sat down, ready to wait. And then the guard got off the train and walked down towards me and asked me where I was going to. I said Liphook. He sighed before telling me to come and sit on the train. I gave him a strange look which resulted in this: 'this train isn't leaving for another 20 minutes and it's going to London so come sit on it to get warm'. I didn't complain. I went and sat - by myself - on the warm train and then just before the train was about to leave he came and told me that it was about to leave so I got off and sat back down. It left and then 2 minutes later my train turned up :D WARM!!
Ahehe!

Kat Says: Books!
Books. Books, books, books. I love books. I love reading books; they take you away from your life and let you into others lives.Just a lot of those times the lives that you are being let into aren't real.
I have a loooong list of books that I want. Last year I split this list and gave half of it to my mum so that she could got to carboot sales and charity shops and get me some for Christmas. I ended up with another 52 books for Christmas. The problem with having so many books however is that I never know what to read next...
I am currently reading Playing Away by Adele Parks. She is one of my favourite authors, along with Sophie Kinsella, Jodi Picoult, Jill Mansell, Alexandra Potter, Catherine Alliott and John Green.
A lot of the books I read are similar. Single girl, meets guy, falls in love, spends ages getting the guy, they live happily ever after. Some of Adele's books are like this, however not all. Jodi Picoult's books are completely different. Her books have a different set theme almost, which irritates me yet I somehow can never put her books down. Both Jill and Catherine's books I haven't read enough on to comment really, but the ones I have read have all been great. Alexandra's books are fantastic. Nothing more to say.
The ending of books seem to annoy me. I have only read a small number of books that endings I can honestly say that I enjoyed. During the book I figure out my perfect ending, and more times than not, I am wrong.
Sophie Kinsella is a genius. Her actual name is Madeline Wickham and she has published books under both names. I have only read one book under Madeline Wickham and I wasn't so sure on it. But her books under Sophie Kinsella are fantastic. She has written a series about a Shopaholic. All the tittles include the work Shopaholic. I have read the series over 3 times, I really, really love it. It is so funny. I have read a few of her other books under Sophie Kinsella and they are just as good.Well, that is apart from Wedding Girl. Which is great, but the grammar and punctuation in my copy is terrible. I don't expect all copies to be like this, it was probably just a print-run that was a bit weird. It's almost as if I have the copy that she had sent to her publishers.
Now I am going to talk about John Green. I have only yet read one of his books, his latest called The Fault In Our Stars. I will talk about this book properly in another books but it is one of my favourite books ever. I thought that I would be biased, because I like his videos and being a Nerdfighter and all that but I can honestly say that it is a hell of a read. And it's not your classic chic-lit.
So yeah I think I have said enough :)

Nails!
I love nail varnish.
I love having painted nails, love painting nails and I would love to be able to do proper nail art and all that.
But I am rubbish at painting nails. Well, I am my own nails. For starters, I can only paint the nails on my left hand...because I am right handed...stupid.
I tend to stick to only Barry M nail varnishes. I have 21 different colours (including a clear, 2 glitters and 2 crackle effects). The crackle effect nail varnish is the most amazing thing ever. If you don't know what it is, Google it. It is SOO good!!
I try to keep my fingernails the same colour for a week, and then change it on the Sunday evening for the next week. This is the colour from the past week:

I loved this because it was a really deep bright blue and then I put silver glitter on top. It reminded me of the night sky xD
I then took them off and repainted them. It is my friends birthday today and I wanted a change just for today. I did this last night however using my bright green and gold crackle effect. I wasn't sure on it, but I had just asked my aunt over the phone what colour to paint them.
I then did this this morning. This photo was taken before I cleared up the edges, so excuse the mess. It's like fire! I painted each nail yellow, then orange over 2/3rds of the nail and kind of merged them together, and then I painted 1/3rd red :D I then painted glitter over which completely ruined it really but oh well!!
And then I went and had a bath and they completely smudged despite it being over an hour since I painted them :/ That's the only problem with Barry M nail varnish.
So my nails are currently clear - and one hand has a yellow tinge.

You Are Live On Blog Laura, Please Do Not Swear.
I can't think of anything to review, so I am just going to review Big Brother seeing as I am currently watching it ad it finishes tomorrow...
I haven't got much to say about it though...I am going to review the whole Big Brother show as a whole, not just this series.
Big Brother, if you don't know what it is, is a reality TV show. Loads of different countries have their own versions of Big Brother but it is basically the same no matter what country. A random number of people are locked away in a house for a long amount of time. Each week they nominate in private (unless something happens which means that they have to nominate in front of the rest of the house) two housemates who they want up for eviction. At the end of each week, one housemate goes. In England, I don't know if they do in other countries too, we have a 'Celebrity' version. I say 'Celebrity' as I never know who most of them are. The 'Celebrity' version usually only lasts around 3 weeks, whilst the normal one last between two and three months.
I personally prefer the normal version as everyone sort of can start afresh. No one knows who they are, and so they can get people on their side straight away and what not. The 'Celebrity' version is different. People know who they are and they are usually judged by what they have done in their life, and not what they do or how they act in the house. Which is sort of unfair, but it makes sense.
The current series of Big Brother is a 'Celebrity' version. I have probably only watched half of the series this time, I just haven't become attached to it unlike I did the previous 'Celebrity' one, or the previous normal one that took place summer of last year. I would say that since Big Brother moved from Channel 4 to Channel 5 it has gone downhill, but I think last year's series was rather good, so that hasn't made much of a difference. I get a bit bored if all the house is getting along. What's the point if they are all best mates and not arguing? Eh?
So yeah, Big Brother has it's moment. I either get addicted, or I don't. So this is a pretty crappy review.
Basically, if you have free time most evenings and like seeing people argue and do challenges (tasks) then start watching it! Give it a go! It might not be your cup of tea but who knows!

Story Makers!
“I still don’t understand why you are dating her Tombo” I said.
“Neither do I really honeypie” Tom sighed, placing his arm around me and then kissing my cheek.
“You make no sense” I laughed, leaning against him.
“I know I don’t babydoll. Whatcha got planned for the weekend?” Tom asked.
“Tomorrow Whisky is coming over and we’re going to watch some films and have yummy food and stuff and on Sunday I am going with you over to your parent’s house for dinner” I grinned. “What about you honey?” I asked.
“Sam wants to do something tomorrow seeing as I am leaving on Monday but I want an excuse to get out of it. Aww, of course I will stay in and watch films and eat yummy food with you and Will. And I’m going to my parents for dinner on Sunday?” Tom laughed.
“Carrie invited me and said that you were going” I said.
“I probably am meant to be babydoll. What do you want for dinner tonight?” Tom asked as he got off of my bed. “Something nice” I laughed.
“And what registers as nice in your word gorgeous?” Tom laughed.
“Well what do you want for dinner Tom?” I asked.
“I really fancy a Chinese” Tom laughed.
“Do it!” I grinned.
“Fine. And a film of some sort downstairs?” Tom asked.
“Upstairs and I am in” I laughed.
“Fine we can watch the film in MY cinema” Tom laughed.
“Well what’s the point of having a cinema room seeing as you watch most of your films downstairs?” I asked, eyebrows raised. “I have no idea. Right I am going to get changed and then we can order dinner. Meet you downstairs in 20” Tom said as he walked over to the door.
“20? Is it really going to take you 20 minutes to get changed?” I laughed.
“It will take me two minutes to get changed and 18 to explain to Sam that I am not available to see her tomorrow” Tom grinned before he left the room. I laughed.
I walked downstairs 20 minutes later and found Tom sat on the sofa, staring at the blank TV. “What’s up sugarplum?” I asked.
“Oh. Hey” Tom muttered. I went over and knelt down in front of him, taking hold of his hands.
“Tom, your scaring me” I whispered. Tom smiled softly before falling back against the sofa. I stood up and sat down on his lap. Tom placed his arms around my waist before pulling me close against him. “I phoned Sam to tell her that I can’t meet up tomorrow and she told me that she had just taken a pregnancy test…” Tom whispered. I placed my arms around Tom’s neck and held him close. “Oh sweetie” I whispered.
“It came back positive. She wants me to go with her to the doctors tomorrow” Tom added.
“Oh Tom. How did you react?” I asked.
“I lied and said that I was surprised but delighted and that of course I would go with her to the doctors” Tom replied.
“How do you really feel?” I asked.
“That I am too young to be a father. That Sam and I have only been going out for less than three months. That I don’t want my first child to be with her. I am not delighted, I am terrified” Tom muttered. I hugged him tighter. “I am sorry” He whispered, now crying.

Amy&I: Part 1
Amy is one of my best friends, I must talk about her one day...
But for the moment, I am just going to say that we share a hell of a lot of great memories.
And I just asked her to give me one to talk about, and she said (word for word copied from MSN) 'maybe we should try the thinking rubber bands'. My best friend Amy is an absolute genius. So that is why we are both sat in different rooms in different rooms with rubber bands around our heads.
Right so my rubber band sprang a memory to mind, so I am going to talk about that one.
This is the story of Blackcurrant Hands and Violet Hair, enjoy.
(NB I am slightly hyper due to talking to Amy so this might be a bit of a weird blog post...)
So once upon a time, in year 11 (says Amy), we were sat in Maths with Mrs Bryson (Okay so yes, it must have been year 11 seeing as we had Clarkeeee in year 10...gijdfj and not a good gijdfj), and I don't know what I was doing but I suddenly smelt my hands and they smelt like something nice...and that I recognized but couldn't put my mind to. So I turn to Amy and go 'what do my hands smell like?' and obviously, she just burst out laughing. But I was deadly serious so did not laugh. She stopped and ended up smelling my hands and said that yes, it did smell of something nice. A while later we realized that they smelt like blackcurrant jelly :') Then I suddenly thought 'why do they smell like blackcurrant jelly seeing as I haven't had anything of that flavour' (without sounding too posh...). A little while later we realized that my highlighter smelt like blackcurrant jelly so that is why my hands smelt like it. How the highlighter became to smell like blackcurrant jelly still remains a mystery.
Now onto Violet Hair. This was in English, on a Wednesday, in B Block. I was sat next to Amy (Like every other lesson that I shared with her...) and I was tired and bored and so I rested my head on her shoulder and suddenly, not realizing that I was speaking out loud, went 'why does your hair smell like violets?' Amy turned to look at me before sniffing her own hair, so I go 'the sweets, not the flowers' and she grinned and went 'it does!'...again, we never found out why...
So that is my tale of today :) From last year/the year before :)

Week 3 - 366 Things I Love
16. Lipbalms/chapstick/whatever you want to call it.
17. This painting above the stairs. My mum painted it a few years ago and I see it every day.
18. Receiving great gifts from friends. Especially when they send it addressed to 'Mrs Laura Chuckle' and the postman gives you a weird look.
19. My bedroom door. Or, to be more to the point, my McFly poster and the Laura thing that Amy made for mee :)
20. My earrings that my aunt got me from Las Vegas. They are my 'lucky' earrings that I wear for important (ish) things...such as exams.
21. This little angel.
22. My new duvet cover. Ignore the load of crap on my bed including the snake, the rabbit in pyjamas, the duck pillow pet, the towel, the owl cushion and the snowman...

Kat Says: Miranda!
Today I am here to talk about Miranda.
Not just any Miranda.
But Miranda Hart.
If you don't know who she is then Google her as I am not going to explain. I am just going to talk about how hilariously funny she is and how amazing her show is.
Miranda is the star of her comedy sitcom, Miranda. And it is so good!!
I only found out about this said program last year when I was on holiday with one of my best mates. I had flicked over Miranda on the TV before but not knowing what it was, never settled on it. But this night on holiday, Amy and I were sat watching the telly and we had just watched Eastenders and we were talking about that when the next program came on. We finished talking about Eastenders and found that we were watching Miranda. I never thought that the following 30 minutes was going to change my life. Amy and I sat for the next half an hour in fits of laughter, telling each other that we could imagine that happening to us in later life. That is the thing about Miranda (the program - not her), it is so realistic with things that do actually occur in life. It made me see things differently, laugh at the simple and stupid things. I actually remember after Miranda had finished, we looked through the TV guide and saw that Would I Lie To You was on. I had seen this before but Amy hadn't but as Miranda was on it, we just had to watch it. We were addicted.
She is just so naturally funny and so...normal. Normal could be the wrong word...but it's not! She is normal :')

It's Friday
It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday. Everybody's looking forward to the weekend. Friday...I would just like to point out that (fortunately) I do not own this song. This song belongs to Rebecca Black.
Which nicely brings me onto the topic of today. SOPA.
I am not going to go into what SOPA is in detail but basically it is a American government law about piracy and copyright and stuff. Basically there are people in America who want this to go ahead. If the law goes ahead, then any American website found to hold any sort of copyright will be shut down. So that's not just one YouTuber who uses someone elses music in their video, and that said video gets deleted. Nope. Not even does the user get deleted. Nope. The whole website is shut down. The same can be said for Facebook, if you link to something that isn't yours, hey, that's copyright!!
It is a load of shit. And I don't see it coming into action but it was just a thing that was made up by some sad lonely people who don't use the internet. The internet is full of copyrighted stuff. Technically, what I am writing isn't mine. As I don't own copyright to the words that I am using, do I? So technically, Rebecca Black should be done for overusing the word Friday that she does not own or have copyright for. And Justin Bieber the same for the word Baby.
Rant over.

Story Time Week 3.
I went back onto my article to read everything that I had written up to date so far. I had only written 1,930 words due to changing it all, deleting and adding things in, but I was proud of what I had so far. The article was due in for the day after I’m A Celebrity finished and so I still had just over a week to go but most of the article I was going to write straight after the show had finished. I was going to Australia myself with Tom the following Monday for the final week and so I could interview some of the contestants myself. I do everything to be the best at what I do. I was halfway through reading my work when my phone rung and I answered it without looking at who it was – a habit I really had to get out of. “Hey babydoll” Tom said.
“Oh hey you” I smiled.
“Whatcha doing?” He asked.
“Just reading over the article. I wrote another 500 words” I replied. “What about you sugarplum?” I added. “Harry is just having his individual shots done and Danny is outside with Sasha. I am being bored” Tom laughed.
“Where’s Sam gone?” I asked.
“She got bored so left about an hour ago sweetie” Tom replied.
“Ahh okay. So what did you call for?”
“I am bored! Un-bored me Tee!” Tom laughed.
“And how am I meant to do that Thomas?” I asked.
“I don’t know, use that incredibly clever brain of yours Treasure” Tom replied.
“But I don’t know honeybunch” I said as Marvin, Tom’s cat, walked into my room. “Hey Marv!” I grinned, gesturing for him to jump up onto the bed. “Hey what are you doing with my cat?!” Tom laughed. “I am going to catnap him” I grinned as Marvin jumped up onto the bed.
“Where will you take him? You live with me!” Tom laughed.
“I haven’t thought this through yet but I still have time until you come home” I laughed.
“Okay honey I will go and leave you to think up a plan” Tom said.
“Alright gorgeous” I said.
“Oh that reminds me, of course fairy angel loves her stupidity and her amazingly dull personality” Tom laughed before he hung up. I grinned, chucking my phone down and picking Marvin up. “Oh I know you hate being picked up Marv but I do love you ever so much!” I laughed, holding him close.
An hour later and Marvin was asleep on my lap. He had never slept on my lap before. I heard Tom come in and shout hello. “Hey we’re up here” I responded, stroking Marvin who was now staring at my door. I heard Tom run up the stairs and he knocked on my door. “Come in” I said. Tom pushed the door open and grinned. “I got worried. When you said ‘we’, I thought you meant you and Sam…” Tom laughing, coming over and sitting down on the bed beside me. “Nah I wouldn’t let her in if she did come round” I laughed.
“She is too nosy, I hate her coming over” Tom laughed.

WICKED
Wicked as in the theatre production.
Which is absolutely amazing.
And I have seen 3 times already.
And am going hopefully for the 4th this year.
I am so excited already.
The first time I saw it I went with my mum and some people at her work. We went on the tube and then got some food at ZiZi's. That was the first time I had actually eaten out in a restaurant that wasn't Pizza Express. Pubs don't count. Anyway, this was a evening performance and I remember going in and seeing green. And a lot of it. We were up the top but there is only one upper seating at the theatre...and i remember seeing the dragon and thinking that it was going to come out at the audience. It didn't though which sort of sucked as I had got my hopes up about it :( ahh well!! It was so good.
2nd time I went with Amy and her mum and it was even better.
3rd time was our 'yay we finished school' present to ourselves (meaning me, amy, robyn and olivia) who had all seen it before, but it was really good yet again.
And hopefully I will be going again in a few months with my mum and my nan. And i am excited. And Matt Willis is currently in it. Nom.
Aheheheee

Week 2 - 366 Things I Love
Sorry about yesterday! Going to post my photos from last week today!!
11. The fact that I own this. And the fact that Amazon told me it was going to arrive tomorrow yet it arrived a day early. And the fact that the 150,000 first published books were signed and 5% of them contain a Hanklerfish and so I am part of that 5% who have it signed by John and Hank.
9. Barry M Nail Varnishes. I didn't realize that I had 21...
10. My butterfly lights.
12. When I leave my house at 7:30 in the morning and see this.
13. Relating things in real life to films.
14. My blanket because it is incredibly warm.
15. My fricken amazing prom shoes which I still adore yet will never wear again due to the pain that they caused my poor feet. Still love them though.

I am sorry!
So I was lying in bed, half asleep, when I suddenly remember that I haven't blogged today. And instead of ignoring it and going to sleep, I grab my iPod just to post this and to say that I won't post my photos from the week today as I am not turning my laptop on to do that. I will post the photos tomorrow...and talk about something random tomorrow too. Okay so now that I know that I have done this, I can try to sleep.

Today Is Not A Usual Saturday.
I could just ask Kat for something to talk about but she has been rather ill lately so I am just going to talk about something else.
I am giving myself the topic of Internet Friends.
Right so here we go.
I have two best friends. One of them I have known since I was about 3 years old and I went to play group but I will talk about her another day. My other best friend I met online about a year and a half ago.Her name is Kat and yes, she is the one that will usually be giving me something to talk about on Saturdays. I met Kat on Twitter. She was a McFly fan, I knew because of her Twitter name: @kathryn_mcfly. Totes obvs, right? :P Anyway, we both were following each other and we said a few things to each other but nothing major. Our first major conversation that we both remember was when we were talking about Wagner. I said that he was mine. And she said no, that he was hers. I said fine, I'd have Louis Walsh and she said that I couldn't. I said that I would have Barry Chuckle. She said fine as she preferred Paul. And that was near enough how our friendship started.
And in just under a months time I am meeting Kat for the first time. She is coming down South and we are going to see The Chuckle Brothers live :') And then in April we are going to see McFly together EEEK. I just hope that she is feeling better.
Actually not that long after this conversation we got engaged on Facebook. Pretty quick, eh.
A lot of my favourite people in the world, the most amazing, funny people and the ones who I go to most when I am feeling down are people who I met online. I find it easier to make friends over the internet. I feel as though I can be myself and if they don't like what I say, they just won't reply and that will be that. It is hard to do that face to face and that's how you get fake friendships. I feel as though I am in a few of those in real life at the moment but I won't go into that.
I met one of my internet friends last year at a McFly gig. (Let's get this out of the way now, yes my internet friends are all McFly fans because yes, I did meet them all on Twitter). Silke is from Belgium yet she was over in England to see the lads on their Above The Noise tour in London and she was sat three rows behind me. I was like AHH and we met and talked and laughed and she is lovely and I get to see her again in April xD
The next internet friend I want to meet so badly. Her name is Evelyn and she is just bloody amazing. She is an amazing artist and makes me laugh.She seems so down to earth and lovely and I can't wait to meet her. And I will do one day. I promised her that I would loose my Starbucks virginity with her.
Another one of my great McFly friends is Sophie. She is bloody fantastic, another great artist and bloody amazing at making/icing cakes. I want to live near her just so I can have a nice birthday cake. She sent me a drawing to give to Tom when I met him and because I gave it to him, she sent me a Thornton's chocolate speech bubble saying 'Mission complete Agent Pay' which was one of the nicest things anyone has ever done for me.
There are so many more amazing McFlyers that I wouldn't mind meeting but those that I have mentioned
I have to meet. I don't have a choice. I just have to meet them before I die. I won't die happy unless I meet them.
So that is that :)

Trains
I love train journeys.
Well, I used to. But now I have to take a train to college 4 times a week and they get on my nerves. I admit I still enjoy the journey and that, but they are so unreliable and the drivers and guards don't tell the passengers the problem when there is one.
Take today for example. I was on the 7:45 train from Liphook. Amy was with me as she had an exam at 9 so had to be in earlier than usual. We get to Haslemere and usually we have to wait 15 minutes for the fast train to overtake which is fine but today they announced 'this service will now be the fastest train to London Waterloo and will leave before the fast train due to a problem with platform 2' (problem being the un-scientific word for whatever it was) and we were like okay, that's fine. The train usually leaves Haslemere at 8:07 so when at 8:00 the train leaves, Amy and I start panicking. I knew the train would stop at Guildford as they all do, but they don't all stop at Godalming so Am might have been screwed. And why did it leave Haslemere early. We arrived at Witley and no one as the platform. Makes sense seeing as the train wasn't due for another 7 minutes. But it kept going anyway. Only then did the driver decide to tell us that they were leaving all stations early and would be stopping at all the stations. Grrrr. Why not before????
Anyway, to sum up, train journeys are fun when they don't fuck up.

Laura Reviews: Easy A
In this charming,funny and critically acclaimed tale of rumours and reputation, Olive,an average high school student, sees her below-the-radar existence turn around overnight once she decides to use the school's gossip grapevine to advance her social standing.
Now her classmates are turning against her and the school board is becoming concerned, including her favourite teacher and the distracted guidance counsellor. With the support of her hilariously idiosyncratic parents and a little help from a long-time crush, Olive attempts to take on her notorious new identity and crush the rumour mill once and for all.
Firstly who is in this film. Emma Stone plays Olive, Amanda Bynes plays one of her classmates and Lisa Kudrow plays the guidance counsellor (which is hilarious!) and these were the only three actors/actresses who I knew. The film also contains the likes of Aly Michalka, Thomas Haden Church, Stanley Tucci, Patricia Clarkson and Penn Badgley.
Let's start with the fact that this film is a 15. I understand why it is a 15 due to the language and plot to the story so I think that it was given the correct age rating. It is a teen movie more than a family sit down film.
I will go into detail about the plot. Olive is a high school student who feels invisible. She want's to be noticed. So when she declines a weekend camping with her friend Rhiannon, she makes up that she is going to see a guy. After the weekend, Rhiannon asks her what happened. Olive tries to think of something but Rhiannon takes the silence as the fact that Olive lost her virginity. Olive tries at first to deny this but she can't seem to so she 'admits' to it. Not knowing that one of her classmates is in one of the toilet cubicles. By the end of the day Olive is known. But for all of the wrong reasons.
I really enjoyed this film and it was funny as anything in parts. I would repeat that it is more of a teen film though. Which is fine, as that is what I am.

Story Bory (Boring Story!)
After writing another 500 words for the article, I closed it and headed onto the internet. I stuck to writing 500 words at a time. I wasn’t allowed to write a word under yet I could write over, but I always tried to stick to around the 500 mark so I could give my mind a rest. I went onto Twitter and straight to my @replies and, seeing tonnes from people I didn’t know, went onto my direct messages. I had one from Tom, one from his younger sister and one from my best mate Will. I clicked on the message from Will. Hey doll face, there’s no point tweeting you as you won’t get it. You up to much on Sat? Want to do something? Message back, phones broken. Whisky x I replied, telling him that I wasn’t doing anything on Saturday and that I would love to do something, what did he have in mind. I then went onto my message from Tom’s sister. Hey Sparks, my mum wants to know if you want to have Sunday dinner with us. Hope you are okay, Carrie xx. I replied that of course I would like Sunday dinner with them and that I was okay, how was she. I then went onto my message from Tom. Remind me why I am dating your friend? Was all it said.
She was my friend Tom yet she now hates me because I spend more time with you then she does. And I don’t know why you do, you tell me sugarplum x I sent before heading over to see what over websites had been saying about I’m A Celebrity.
Dougie is a joke. He is not like that in real life – he is a loud, swearing, awful ‘celebrity’ who is putting on an act for the camera. One article said. I growled before going to the comments. What the fuck do you know about Dougie? Once you know Doug yes he is loud and swears more than a lot of people but that’s Dougie for you! He is not awful so shut up. He is incredibly shy around people he doesn’t know so before you start slagging him off, get your facts right. I wrote. I sighed before deleting what I had posted; I wasn’t going to get involved. I headed back onto Twitter where I had 3 new DM’s. Bowling, film, chillaxing at yours? Hey is Tom going to be in? Whisky x Was what my best friend had put. He had a major crush on Tom which was rather amusing. Tom will be in I think, film round here with food? X I replied before going onto my message from Carrie.
Come round with Tom :) Yeah I am fine thanks :) Carrie xx I grinned before putting it onto my iPhone calendar that I was having dinner round there’s the following Sunday. I then went onto my message from Tom. So she should hate you babydoll :P She’s fucking gorgeous, that’s why x I laughed.
Is that the only reason why? Don’t you like her stupidity or her amazingly dull personality fairy angel? X I sent.
