hmm

ok, so tv right now really isn't up to much is it? the halloween poirot last night being one of the highlights of my week.

i don't really know why I love that show but I always find it entertaining to say the least.

Having been watching the Sarah Jane Adventures (Doctor Who spin off) I was intrigued to see how they were going to get around the whole limited regeneration thing, only to be let down by it being in a scene lasting about 20 seconds! I was very disappointed. i do have a soft spot for that show tho!

newness and i have discovered my hell

IKEA!!!! the invention from hell!

my god...nearly 2 months to deliver a freaking bed then having to travel half way across london to pick up the missing part on public transport!!! then the store itself is hell...i swear if there is a hell, i will end up in ikea...that is my personal hell!!!

i thought my old house was hell but i have been proven wrong!!!!!! haha (sorry boys)

life in the new flat is decidedly interesting. very girly, perhaps a little to girly for my liking, very pink...and fluffy...its weird...its taking some getting used to though. not being around guys...i've grown up around guys and watching guy movies and now i dont get that...i miss it really...i love the girls dont get me wrong but its weird.

i'm helping my brother out on a film called "the Missing" which is pretty awesome!

ok so what's been happening...xfactors back in case you live on mars and didn't realise, along with strictly and merlin. i do love merlin, it's a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine...anthony head is a guilty pleasure of mine to be quite honest. strictly however is highly entertaining due to the appearance this year of the former conservative mp for maidstone...ann widecomb. she is very entertaining!

for matt!

i said i would write a new blog just for my good friend matt dennis and here it is, deicated to you!

ok so, watched star wars episodes 1 and 2 last night, with Jamie, James and Matt. pretty good laugh actually, i love the whole darth maul entrance bit in episode one and how liam neeson just meditates waiting for death. pretty hard core really. i'm not a big fan of episode 2 tho. they made vader into a pussy whiny little bitch!!!! why amidala falls for him i will never understand.

smuc radio's first birthday...where was all the promised events then ay?? it was just a normal su night, fun tho!

okay...

so university is supposed to be a time of self discovery, a time when it is okay to be yourself and be who you really are, yet i still feel that I can't show that. I have to hide who the real me a lot of the time. there are so many "annas" now that even I have a tough time distinguishing between which elements of the 'real me' go with which me. it sucks...big time.

the other night, at 90s nite for example, i was having fun, i won a free dink from a rather stupid drunken bet. i was having a laugh but still, i realised I wasn't being me. I've just re-read most of my old myspace blogs from my teen years and realised that, I was pretty emo for most of that time...not cool!!!!

oh well, i guess the way i see it is most of us were. even when I was happy as a teen, there was this thing that ate at me constantly, admittedly I now know what it is at least but it is still there. nagging me. which sucks. I want people to know me for who I am, and like me for that, is that too much to ask? I don't want people to only want to hang out with me because I'm friends with James and Jack or Mikey or John or Rach, I want people who think, hmm I wonder what Anna's up to, maybe she wants to hang out. I don't want to be an after thought. I guess I'm being melodramatic, i mean not everyone's like that, it just seems like that a lot. a hell of a lot really. I mean, look at me now, sat in my kitchen with a glass of vodka and squash (i ran outta coke), which is surprisingly good really. and rach has gone to bed, Mikey is still out, James is at home (even if he were here, he probably wouldn't physically be here anyway) and Jack is sick. so i feel alone again. partially my fault tonite i guess, i could've text around but didn't. i set my mind to other stuff really. stupid child.

okay, now for the important stuff. the rest of the world! i watched skins the other day. suprisingly good. i may get back into it after a year break. lost. Oh my god!!! the first two episodes are absolutely amazing!!!! i won't go into detail as it's not fair on people who haven't watched it yet but WOW!!! you at least know what the stompy monster is! but not exactly...AHHHH jj abrams is an evil genius i tells ya!!!

valentine's day is rite around the corner folks, and more and more stores are getting more and more sickly sweet by the day. it's disgusting i tell you. i can't take it. I don't even like the lovey dovey ott crap when i'm with someone, well not to that extent anyway, i've always hated teh public displays of affection. there's a time and a place people!!! remember that!!! oh well...nuff said on the dreaded day for tonite.

i'm off before i get frost bite in my fingers due to lack of heating atm!

ttfn

hmmm

okay, well, this isn't really going to be that much of a rant about media as my last blog! more of a rant about everything.

i feel really isolated again. woop de dee! there is something not right again. i'm a bit down i guess as Valentine's day is just around the corner and this is the second year ever where I haven't had a valentine. I no i no, it's pathetic to be moping about that but two years in a row since coming to uni that no-one is interested in me. wooo the isolated incident of a one off event. woo. not helped by how most of my friends are now married, getting married, or parents/parents to be. its getting to me i guess.

my main issue i guess is the thing that doesn't bother anyone who is in a relationship at this kind of year but is the bain of any singleton's life. the ridiculous cutesy valentines tat that seems to litter stores at this time of year. I can't really complain I know as if i were in a relationship i'd be buying into this crap as much as everyone else but being single enables me to really see how cheesy and nauseating the whole affair really is. our t.v.s and cinemas are littered with the sickeningly sweet romance theories that I have always thought to be ridiculous and crap. but the airwaves are now also filled with the likes of wet wet wet and brian adams, as if we didn't hear enough of those already over used in films and adverts!!!! it's a little bitter and ridiculous I know but oh well. everyone who is single is allowed to rant at this time of year! i for one intend to continue with my tradition of a valentine's day massacre in which I sit and watch the most anti valentines movies I can. I started this tradition at 15 when my boyfriend was away with the army cadets for valentine's day by watching Team America. I haven't quite decided what to watch yet this year so any ideas would be welcome.

okay back to important matters. what do i find that is good with the world right now, hmm, i do like what all these celebrities are doing for haiti at the moment but I can't help but be skeptical about all these so called charitable events. I'm very wary as I honestly feel that man of them are doing this for there own gain. to boost there own careers. to be honest I'm sick of all this work that bono is doing for charity. how many people nowadays would honestly know who U2 are if it wasn't for bono putting his face everywhere supposedly helping people just for the good feeling? I know i know i'm probably being a synical person but oh well. sorry!

well thats all for now!
ttfn!

okay

so 2010 kicked off with a bang, I still seem to be the only person on the planet not to have seen Avatar, and to be honest, I'm really not that fussed! it really doesn't appeal to me and considering the hype it's got...seems kinda pointless. I'd rather watch dances with smurfs any day! and if anyone actually reads this and gets that reference I will be impressed!

tv hasn't been that great either, the final "celebrity" big brother is finally over. thank god. I will admit I did watch the final, just to see if the only person I class as a celebrity or being famous won, he didn't. he came third. instead a pathetic excuse for an MMA fighter who no one had heard of this time last year won. Alex Reed. a man who is only famous because of who he's f**king. and does that really mean you are a celebrity? for sleeping with a page three whore? I mean come on, Katie Price or Jordan or what ever she is is only famous because she got her tits out and got knocked up by a football player. and oh yes, for appearing on dodgy reality t.v. shows with her semi famous then husband Peter Andre. do these things really pass for entertainment these days?

I feel like a mad old woman to be perfectly honest, I'm a 20 year old student and yet i sit and winge about what passes for music or television nowadays, but seriously. it's bad enough that every form of media visual media seems to be going down the pan, but now music too?

anyway, enough of the bitching. things to look forward to in 2010, reading line up should be good this year, theres a few (hopefully) good albums due to come out this year. and also some potentially good movies and plays. I'm going to see Posh at the Royal Court in a few weeks and to be honest I really am looking forward to it! look out for my review here soon after!
