Reminderrrr!!!

 *Sorry, again, for not having updated the blog for a pretty long time.. but college as taken over our lives (as Junkie has said previously) and we hardly have any private/social life & when I finally have some time to spare... 'BOOOOOM' cold+fever hit me and made me a miserable human being...   .Painful.


So again, sorry. But to let you know we have both sat down 'after college 'in a cafe' and formally  discussed how we are going to manage these blogs, and from what we have planned so far... pfffooaaar it'll be good. I promise.* ;D


QUICK UPDATE :

'Are you EXCITED?? B'cause we definitely are VERY EXCITED!' :D

Nickelback's NEW ALBUM 'HERE AND NOW' COMING NOVEMBER 21st! 

One week todaaayy till the New album is released!! :D :D

Junkie & Me will literally be 'running' down to town, to of course get our hands on a copy and rave to it on the way home ;D

Count down to the release date of the long awaited album on the 

Official Nickelback homepage! 

and also check out their new music video for 'When We Stand Together'.

Au Revoir Tout Le Monde.

Don't give up hope. Please?

This is an overdue update to the blog.

For sometime both Miik's and I have been feeling that the blog isn't as good as it could be, and not quite how we envisioned it. We have been trying to solve this by designing backgrounds, titles and general layouts, but since we are in college we don't have much time to actually put effort into either blogs. 

So I ask you all now.. Can you hang on and be patient for us? Please?

I personally promise both blogs will be pretty darn good when we've got some spare time, and even then we won't be satisfied and we'll keep pushing to make them better.

Le Summer Pt.1

Okay, Okay. The title is cheesey, but I couldn't think of anything better.


..Lately I've been feeling a little guilty for not posting anything recently, so I figured there were a few moments during my summer that you, the readers, deserve to know about. Because I'm generous like that :)



First up..
 BlackPool Pleasure Beach
:D
For all of you who live outside of the UK and/or have never heard of the Pleasure Beach, it's an amusement park placed right next to BlackPool beach (looking to the Irish Sea) and is EXACTLY as cheesey as it sounds! It's the sort of place where if you were to say to somebody "BlackPool Pleasure Beach" their first thoughts would be a mix of childhood nostalgia, freshly cooked doughnuts and some seriously brilliant rides!


Obviously you can't go somewhere like this on your own (it's just not as fun) I had to go with a friend, called Flabbey, and since we live so far away my parents came along for the sightseeing *cough* and transport *cough*

Didn't win this time..

As a kid, my family used to visit Blackpoop Blackpool quite often to see family, and we had this game when whoever saw the tower first received 20p off each family member in the car.
After queuing for flippin' ages we finally got into the park, danced around a little and hit the rides, starting with the good ol' wooden Grand National. Nice and gentle because Flabbey hadn't actually been on a theme park ride before.. Oh was she in for it! XD

Almost there!!

There were literally thousands of visitor's there that day so every ride we went on we had to queue. The Tango Ice Blast took the cake a bit since we had to wait for about an hour and a half for a minute long ride.. Wasn't even as if we were in shade either. Y-OUCH!

Well worth the wait...

On the Ice Blast, you get shot up to 180ft in the air at 80mph, left dangling for a while to take in the spectacular sea view (I did mention it was next to the beach right?) and then brought crashing back down.. Then up, then down, then up once more and finally touch down! I swore we were just going to shoot off the top of the thing!! 

After, we kind of just pootled around the park, going on another wooden ride, eating chips, watching rides go around and up and down and eating a bit more we finally plucked up the courage to go on..

The..

.

...

Pepsi Max Big One!!

I mean... Just look at it! D:

Before this, I'd only been on the Big One once before and my fingers had to be peeled off the bars in front of me.

Now before anybody judges me, the ride's highest point is 235ft high from sea level with a first drop of 205ft, that almost corkscrew's on the way down at 74mph, giving the feeling you're about to fall to your doom, and at some points subjecting you to 3.5G, on a track that is just over a mile long. It is a 3 minute ride of sheer terror/thill/excitement/pant pooping fun that has you speechless and gagging for a drink at the end.

Get the picture...?

It's that high it actually has aeroplane hazard light on top. -_-

The ascent

What was nice, was when a friend notices your fear on the way up at about 200ft and attempting calm you by saying "Hey, let's who can see a boat first.."

Great job Flabbey, great job.

*Edit* I'm sorry but this video really doesn't do the ride any justice, especially without sound
After all that, we went on it again for a second time round.


My round's on the Pepsi Max = 3 
:D
FEARLESS I TELL 'YE!!! 

Fortunately the park was open until 9pm that day so me and Flabb's spent even more time eating and generally just having a ball on the other rides and coin pusher machines. 
Hopefully we'll get to go again sometime so I can shove Flabb's onto Infusion (she wimped out) and also go on Valhalla as we didn't get the chance.


So my question is.. 
Who out there like's Theme/Amusement Parks, and what's the best bit about them? :)

P.s. My feet are that cold they've gone numb. No word of a lie.
P.p.s. Here's my twitter.. @JunkiPie

Taiyaki (たい焼き, literally "baked sea bream") is a Japanese fish shaped cake. The most common filling is red bean paste that is made from sweetened adzuki beans.

For those who have never had it before... you're seriously missing out! 

C'est délicieux ^^

 Reality is for people with no imagination.

My beautiful BABY!!

A few weeks ago, I bought an Olympus E-pl 1 [YAY], but when it was delivered Horror of all horrors, THE FLASH DIDN'T WORK! :'(
So after a heartbreaking few day's I received a replacement for it, and Hey Presto, It works!!

So, why am I a legend? Well other than being just plain awesome *cringe*, I Learnt something new today..

I learnt how to make animated GIF's!!!! :D     I know it's really not all that, but it took a lot of effort with my measly PSE 8!

Lop-sided and too fast but FyAAH!

Also, I just dyed my hair. It was the colour of a Tangoed dead chicken (honestly, I quite liked it :$) , but now, I think it's more of a coppery ginger :) Which I don't mind too much either!
I used Naturtint: Arizona Copper :P if you ever need to know! xD

Whatssap!

Cute or what ;P

 Bonjour tout le monde! Ca va?^^


I apologise in advance for the typing mistakes, I think i've had a little too much Asahi beer :S 
You might also notice that i'll blabber a lot.

 Well LOADS has been going on recently, and as you would have seen i haven't posted anything since i was in Japanzz. (Sorry, everything has been really hectic!)

The small things in life which make you happy: 
-A random guy walking up to us to say Hi, which did actually make my day, well not until we had to enter the textiles room of doom!-_-  


-Singing along to a song which matches the situation your in...
[ I think i'm ugly and nobody want to love me. Just like her I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty. Don't lie to my face, coz I know I am ugly.] 2ne1 'Ugly'♥

Random News Topic.. 
"Nasa satellite the size of bus 'could land anywhere' - Telegraph"


Okay, so it's a fairly serious AND reasonable news topic.. 
.. but seriously 


The little end sentence to wrap up the whole article warning people not to touch the debris as it may have sharp edges really cracked me up.. What were we supposed to expect? A giant space teddybear? Snoopy?

I really should find this funny!

P.s. I've set up a Pinterest and a Twitter account, and will be setting up a Delicious and a DeviantART soon, and i'll link them as soon as i'm done! :D

Message from Japanzz

Here we go ... *nervous nervous*


Konichiwa everyone it's Miikipoo^^ (Writing by myself for the first time) 
                   [Coz i'm so lonely lonely lonely-]


                                  -anyway-


If you have read some of the previous Junkie posts , you would probably know that I am currently in Japanzz just chilling around wiz little annoying flying creatures with straws aka blood sucking mosquito's. 


AND yes of course I'm having a GREAT time being attacked by all sorts of stuff e.g. cockroaches, my grandma & japaneze babies! Oh yeah scary as poo!


Excluding those listed above, everything else is AWESHOME! 
 & to share some of the japaneze aweshome'ness with you guys, I'll be returning to England with a bag full of sweets and other interesting stuff which Junkie et moi will be reviewing on ze other blog soon, so you can look forward to that & make sure to stay tuned^^
   [Oh yeah-] & if you haven't been on the other blog lately Junkie uploaded some pictures of her really cool nails, so if your interested in nail art, GO ON check it out, don't be scared! :D




                                -carrying on-




Junkie would probably know this but i'm a total K-pop freak & am OBSESSED with YG's Big Bang especially G-Dragon & 2NE1.
 I went to Osaka, Universal Studios a few weeks ago and you'd never guess what i found...






I'm still so HAPPY that i can't put it into words...  so here some pictures :D

                                           G-Dragon's hand mold ;D 
                                           (please don't look at my fingers :S)

                                            Big Bang member's hand molds :)
                                                  (sorry it's not too clear)




Jealous right ;) 


So if there are other k-pop crazies out there (sure there are) please do communicate with us and share anything or if you have any requests as to what we should listen to, that would just be superly aweshome too :D 
& If you YG crazies didn't know yet, BIGBANG & 2NE1 have official youtube channels which they update regularly with MV's, behind the scene videos, shout outs & competitions :) So why not have a look ;D


          
                                  -coming to a conclusion-




I'll be back in england soon, so reviews on ze other blog will be on the way.
In a week or so we get our exam results so not looking forward to that :S 


But yeaah, sorry about the lame ending, but i gotta go now. 


Bye Bye^^ 

Fatty Fat Fat !

Once again i've failed (surprise surprise) so now I think I'll just stop promising things.

Forever. 

Kay?  

So recently, I really haven't done much other than get fat. Seriously, the amount of 'Junk' I've eaten is incredible.. Even the Wii fit told me off and said I was too fat.  

Blasted cake! 

Speaking of cake here are some Pic-A-tures of some cakes I made as a gift to a friend (t'was another birthday, but I only gave her 2 out of 24 since I'm a greedy pig..)

And another snap of the masses of cookies, Correction, Vegan cookies *winks* I made with my mother after a particularly lazy day! :D

I had more.. A lot more..

Honestly, if I knew how to do a fat faced smiley I would put it here ________ 
;) 

So I've been fighting another incredible illness called MIGRAINES! Okay, okay, maybe not an illness but bad enough right? Right????? 

Not much going on in Junki land really but since we haven't got much time left of freedom I really need to start gettin' crafty! 
*Insert necessary joke here*

Please, check out ze other blog for some nail art related pictures.. Oh and follow us?  

P.s. Imma take the stick out my bottom and start kicking butt in ze blogging world. Trust me!
