Festivals forever

I am currently mourning the summer festivals. I did quiet well this year and attended Sea Sessions in Bundoran, which was wet, Oxegen for the day and saw Beyonce who was preggers and we didnt know, Castlepalooza and of course my favorite Electric Picnic. I cant think of one highlight, but sitting inside listening to the rain this evening does make me wish i was in a field with glowsticks, running to a tent to see a band. 
All in all Irish summers are just fine by me so quit you're whining and get you 2012 tickets!
here are some of my fave outfits all stolen from facebook pics..

..until 2012


for next year i hope we have more feathers and turbans, as modeled here by my friend Aisling

 i predict we'll be sporting the turban by next year (fingers crossed)

unrequited love for Mary

Hello Mary*. 

I recently remembered how very pretty you are and how cool you seemed to be and was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime? I know it's been ages, and that over the course of this time you may have gotten less pretty or less cool, or I may have gotten less pretty or less cool, but I'd like to find out either way.

Now if you're chuckling away to yourself reading this, or if you think what awful novel did i lift this from. I can confirm that this is an actual facebook mail my friend got today. 

I couldn't not share.. 

First of all, its vaguely insulting, 'less pretty or less cool', and he's still willing to go out with her?! what a catch! My brain is baffled. Is this a bet or a joke? Apparently it is not. Mary tells me that the young man is a bit socially retarded.....no way, really?

..and since we're all sharing i have to say that this is not the first time young Mary has been the object of a creepy guys affection. 

For years, Mary came home from college, wrecked, in need of a nap and flopped onto her bed. usually throwing her books, laptop, clothes around the place for the relief of pjs and a duvet. Not once thinking she was being watched....that's right.

In all the years she floated about the privacy of her room, she didn't close the curtains. Recently the parents of the young man living behind Mary happen to be in his room, only to see herself coming out of the shower, i wont bore you wit the details, but there may have been nudity involved...i know i know! This was meant to be a PG blog.

Anywho, they went on to tell her parents and poor Mary was sat down to let her know that leaving curtains open and prancing around you're room naked is really only inviting Peeping Tom's to have a gawk.

There you go people, be warned, even if you have trees outside the window, close your curtains!

I know Irish guys sometime get a hard time from us young ladies. But i think they're going to have to try a lil harder..

*name have been changed to make this a little less embarrassing...just a little.

I have this friend, she's my 'bessie for life' as ya might say, lets call her S, because
(a) she liked the gossip girl books when she was a youngun' and will think that's cool and  
(2) because I can't go on reveling people identities on my own blog....

actually scratch that i just watched the latest Gossip Girl on side reel and 'S' does sound cooler.

Myself and S were once  very like the young Miss Granger, fluffy hair that no-one could control, nerdy and obsessed with Harry Potter. We spent our time making up songs about our beanie babies, Ziggy was mine and Pugsly was hers. We made up email addresses when the Internet came about, why we needed an email account, i have no clue, hermionerox4evr and emeraldbarbie02, neither of wish to claim who owns which.

Much like Hermione Granger and Emma Watson, S and I grew up and learned of the wonders of GHDs and conditioner.

here's a few Emma Watson pics we love...

Also Emma Watson is only 20.......that's depressing... 

when am i gonna be cast in my first film or at least in a girl band already?
