Things that I hate

Tuesday, March 18th, 2008
  • Paying for a TV Licence and there still not being anything on bloody TV.
  • Paying for Cable and there still not being anything on TV.
  • Selfishness
  • Chavs…. not the footballer’s wife kind but the obnoxious, ASBO type ones
  • Bad parenting (this generally leads to the above).
  • Obese children…. Ah that rages me, seriously if you wanna be that’s fine, but don’t impose it on your children!
  • Fake blondes that give real blondes a bad name…. Please be aware, I have nothing against people dying their hair blonde, just dying it and then acting like a thick fucking idiot.
  • Vodka
  • Buying clothes, wearing them, then realising it was probably a bad idea.
  • Adult acne… enough already!
  • Stomach aches…. once again, enough already!
  • Being poor.
  • Having to hide your feelings to save other peoples.
  • Boredom.
  • People that feel it’s OK to take the piss out of you.
  • Not having a pent house apartment, a Mercedes SL500 and a million quid in the bank.
  • Bad teeth
  • People that claim benefits when they are perfectly capable of going out to work.
  • The Labour government for allowing it.
  • Unnecessary immigration…. in other words, people that come into the country with the sole intent of not contributing to the economy and poncing off those of us that actually go out to work and pay our taxes.
  • The Labour government for allowing it.
  • Being constantly nice to people and not getting anywhere whilst watching other people being obnoxious twats and succeeding in life!
  • Bendy buses… seriously, they are just too long!
  • Pedestrians in London… the road is for cars, not for people.
  • Nasty, pretty, girls with no personalities, that are mean and nasty to other girls because they suffer from a mass insecurity complex.
  • Insecurity in general, it leads to jealousy and nastiness… not nice.
  • Queuing…. especially for night clubs.
  • Rain… it ruins shoes!

I think that’s about it for now, but if I think of any more I’ll let you know.

It’s taken a while….

The thing is…. I don’t really know what to write about, and I don’t think anyone would really care about what I do with my life, or what I think about the world, but just incase anyone out there does… Here is my life… in the form of a blog…

 It’s taken me a while to be fair, to get to the point that I want to start writing about myself…. and even now I don’t know if I really do…. you see, although I review other peoples stuff on my show Podfinder Uk, I find it hard putting myself under the micro scope… I suppose that’s because when you do, you open yourself up for criticism…. Now that’s not to say that I can’t take it, but I am a sensitive soul and don’t like thinking about the fact that people might not like me…. I mean when I read comments on the Podfinder UK site or any other site for that matter and I get slagged off… it hurts, and then I think about it obsessively for days…. I don’t know what this says about me as a person… or why I would even care for that matter… but I do…. I think it’s because I’m used to being liked…. or at least thinking I am…. Maybe I’m not and people are just to scared to say??? You see, alot of people say when they meet me that they are intimidated…. well they don’t say that of course when they 1st meet me, they later tell me that once we’re friends… This is something about myself that I’ve never really been able to figure out… you see, in most situations, when I 1st meet people, I tend to feel a bit out of my depth myself…. but obviously I never want to actually show this, so I front it out…. I also hate being false, and when you first meet people, that’s what it always seems to be… falsed…. falsed conversation, fake smiling and fake laughing, and I HATE it…. so I suppose, I just stay quite, and I don’t know if maybe this comes across as being arrogant or stand offish… but that’s never my intention, and when you know me, you learn that that’s not what I’m about at all….

When I first met ‘The Show Ponies’ this is exactly what happened… You see ‘the Show Ponies’ are now some of my best friends but I’ve only known most of them since 2006…. I first met most of them on a super car rally that I work on as a model called Carbon Black www.carbonblack.co.uk… The other ponies are also models, and trust me, if you’ve ever walked into a room, full of some of the most beautiful women in the world, with amazing faces and bodies…that’s what you call intimidating!! You can’t help but size yourself up and compare yourself and think… am I actually good enough to be here?? But apparently I was, and still am, and now they are my girls… infact my friends are really the centre of my world… well apart from my family…. which to be fair only really comprises of 3 people…. anyway…. me and the girls have seemed to pick up the title of ‘the show ponies’ and these  are the girls I have the most fun with clip clopping around the west end to parties and generally getting up to mischief…. It’s unusual to get a group of girls that’s so big, so close, and not at all jealous or bitchy towards each other, but against the odds we’ve done it, and it’s great.

The Show Ponies

Talking about great…. during the week it was my mum’s birthday and as it was an extra special one, me, my Daddy and my Sister, decided to make a fuss of her and go up to the big smoke, have some dinner and go to the theatre to see Jersey Boys…. Now, the chances are that you wouldn’t have seem this musical as it only made it’s debut last week, but if you get the chance you HAVE to go… It was one of the BEST musicals I have been to see in a very, very long time… It’s about the life and music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons…. Now, I was actually quite surprised that alot of people don’t actually know who they are, but trust me you’ll know their songs. I grew up on this sort of music as the parents always listened to 1548am Capital Gold when I was growing up, so I was kinda brain washed into liking music from the 60’s and 70’s…. Anyway, it is superb and I can’t recommend it enough… when I was booking the tickets, I was stumbling around the net looking for reviews on the Broadway show and found this great podcast…. it tells you all about the show and gives you background on the cast and also the latest news…. it you wanna go have a look then the address is www.jerseyboyspodcast.com. or go and watch the show video for a sneaky peek at www.prince-edward-theatre.co.uk and go to view show video. Anyway, if you want a great show then def go and see it… awesome…
