Halloween!
I'm meant to be a bat, and no one questioned it, even I don't think I look like one, so I just put fake blood everywhere in the end.
I couldn't put in teeth because i only have 4 front teeth, I liked everyone else's costumes though. It was quite fun, even if the DJ at Highlight is a bit lazy.

Day 287.

So yesterday was interesting. My third shoot of the week went well and then Joe was in Portsmouth. They've made Waster dangerous and filled it with typical dangerous binge-drinking offers, vom. My stomach is whirring.

Day 225.

So I've been a bit slack with this since my birthday. Here comes a mammoth update. I have the photos though, so it exists, just not on here. Here we go.

My party was Sunday, it was quite nice and I got to see a few members of my family that I don't often see. Tom and Lucy also made the effort to come along and that was great of them. I got to open a few presents, one of which was the collage shown above which my sister made - it has lots of old photos of us and me from when we were small. My Uncle David made a great speech too and I got to have/see my birthday cake which was the size of about four cakes. Crazy.
In the evening I went for a few drinks at the Kings Arms and set off some sky lanterns when I got home. I was in bed before it hit my proper birthday at midnight.

What a lazy day, reunion later, I hope people I like come rather than people I don't.

Day 195.

Forgive me for posting yet another photograph that I didn't actually take myself.
So, Moon won some tickets for Guilfest, so we went, but only for today because we have plans this weekend, we only really saw two good acts and it's kind of made me realise how tiny Guilfest actually is, there's not nearly enough to do, how was I satisfied with this before? I guess more pops up on Saturday but it doesn't matter.
So this is a photo of my feet getting a pedicure from some fish, I saw it, I figured I wouldn't get another chance to do it, at least of course not for a long time, so I just did it, and it was amazing. My feet are much softer than they were and I want my own so I can do it for hours at a time, it's so tickley and they get something out of it too, nom.
They liked my right foot better than my left foot, I'm also quite sure they helped sort out bits of my healing blisters. Tasty.

Day 194.

My hair has been dyed, it is much darker than I wanted it to be, I'm hoping that it goes a bit lighter, but it makes a nice change from dark roots and some kind of ginger. I should probably treat my hair right when it goes fades to a more natural colour.
I am currently enjoying the smell of the dye though. Nom.
Sorry there wasn't a good enough photo of it finished, also I didn't take these.

Day 193.

I'm anticipating 'Despicable Me' greatly, I love the minions, when you hit these, they made noise! :)
Today I went to watch the final Shrek film, I don't think children would enjoy it, I'm beginning to see a trend in this kind of animation with a recent example being 'Up', in that there seems to be a much more grown up storyline that is basically of little interest to a child. This is fine by me because I hate kids at the cinema but I thought it was quite interesting.

Day 171.

I went to Chessington 'World of Adventures' today, now I'm going to Glastonbury, k bye.

Day 89.

Today I had my hair cut, it is now too full of product and feels gunky.
I was astonished to see how white that part of my scalp was, particularly in comparison to my make-upped face.
I got round to finishing off watching my Liberia documentary and have started reading Stephen Ellis' book about the Civil Wars as well as looking up past BBC news coverage, I'm not completely sure where I'm going with it yet, I'm sure I'll be able to have it done by this time next week.
I thought I'd got a lot done today, but reeling it off in my mind, apparently the Liberia documentary was a lot longer than I thought..
Look at the women in the background of this picture!

Day 67.

Yolko Ono & John Lemon.
This is a week for dressing up, I should actually get doing some work... I have this afternoon and tomorrow, I guess, but I have to break this up by returning a dumb tripod, which I will get fined for.
These costumes were for a friends party last night, the theme was 'Music Legends', I wish more people had made an effort...
I felt quite awesome anyway, and my £2 shoes sustained themselves, even though my feet were hurting from a different, more expensive pair, thank you Primark.
