Ok, new girl crush time... Sorry Anne but you'll have to sit on the shelf for a little bit, until I get over these two beauts from ANTM Cycle 14.
Watching the new cycle on the net has made me really happy; I don't like waiting for it to come onto Living as I manage to miss the cruicial eps :(

The one disappointment of this cycle is the intro music/video - they're definitely trying too hard to be edgy and modern, it just doesn't work. Less is more, the intros for cycle 7-13 were much better.
However, Tyra's definitely cranked it up a notch with these two - Raina Hein; looks like Jennifer Connelly/Denise Richards' hotter little sister and she seems totally down-to-earth. Usually I hate big eyebrows, but come to mama...





And the second girl crush of '10 is Jessica Serfaty - she got married at 16 and has a little boy, idc; she's fresh-faced and gorgeous!

Hubba Hubba.
I hope they make it big, but Raina should have definitely won :(

So my copy of Diamond Eyes fell onto my door mat this morning.
I love it so much, it's seriously not coming out of my cd player, apart from when I put it on my Ipod.
I need to re-listen to Deftone's previous albums as I haven't listened to them properly since early December; don't ask me why, I'm a fool. However I can safely say that this is my favourite album of theirs.. maybe White Pony is at the same level, but then again I've loved everything they'v done.
You can tell that Chino's vocals are stronger in ths album, whether he's stopped smoking, or found a better way to sing if that's at all possible - the vocals just sound cleaner/they clarity in his voice is 'top notch'.

I noticed the backing vocals sound strange, you can tell it's somebody filling in for Chi. I seriously hope he gets better soon :/

I've listened to the whole album maybe three times while I was getting ready this morning, and about four times since I got home, but Beauty School is my favourite track so far.
The lyrics are beautiful, Chino has to be one of the most intriguing lyricists in the world IMO.

I kinda like you when
When you make up the reel
You take the phone in your room
Stop the tape or resume
Well you could try if you think it will load

I watch you taste it
I see your face
And I know I'm alive
You're shooting stars
From the barrel of your eyes
And it drives me crazy, it drives me wild

Over the last week or so I have eaten enough food to feed the 4,000. I know Nicky (mother) says that all the time, but it's genuinely meant this time!

Right, brief food diary, woop with excitement won't you Heather..

Last Friday: Cheese toastie for breakfast (suprisingly delish), Greg's Spicy Chicken slice x2, YumYums x3, and Chinese for tea.
Saturday: Nothing all day but toast and doughnuts, until we went to Red Hot Buffet for Heather's Twenteenth (more on that later) I think I had about four fat plates of curry, noodles, samosas, chicken, everything! Annd a plate full of ice cream and mini desserts; which are amazing!
Sunday: Roast dinner after work, and snacking on chocolate into the wee hours.
Monday: Noodles. Lots of them, can't remember my tea, probably noodles.
Tuesday: More noodles, then a Yums, thennn a fat pizza and chips at about 2am.
Today: Cuppa for breakfast (feeling dodgy) then Maccies with Heather, didn't help much :')

Overall I feel like a total fatty, but I don't mind so much because I might actually put some weight on! Keepin' my fingers crossed.



Right, Saturday night was 'date night', or Heather's early Twenteenth celebrations :)
Myself and Danni wandered over to help her get ready/hurry her up as the meal was booked for 9. (we didn't start eating til about 9.45, like that matters) I helped her volumise her hair, but refused to put falsies on her as her eyelids are like paraletic monkies when she says they're closed. LIAR!
Anyways, Mr Sutton kindly gives us a lift to the station, not forgetting Vicki who we squeezed into the back basically sitting Caroline's lap. Andri was waiting for us and was in charge of tickets, so we ran as the train was there, shouting, "NOOOOOOO, DON'T LEAVE!"
We made it but looked like the unfittest people in Liverpool. Hey ho, life goes on.

Red Hot Buffet is amazing, if you look past the whole Heather spilt her drink on herself *claps* and the mandtory tip. I tip anyways but if it's force upon me I feel the need to rebel. Hence the snappy comment card remarks.

Taxi to Scream was, interesting let's say.. Met Sarah, Hannah, Abbie, Day, Michael and bumped into Casey, Jay etc.
Then stood in The Flute/outside for about 10mins while nobody could decide where we should go. When we all decided on Cava, we change our minds again. After that there was more of a kerfuffle, people parted ways, etc. Most of us ended up in the K, with the others catching up later on.
A lot of dancing, drinking, falling over, taking stupid eyes half-closed photos, more "dancing" took place.

I enjoyed it, I always do when I go out with that group :)

Fun times for all!
