Kiss in The Rain

... and 38 other ways to live life.

I was feeling a lil down and blue at the beginning of the week so I did a lil Google search to find ways to cheer myself up and I came across this site that listed 39 ways to live life.

Peep some of them below.

Love. Perhaps the most important. Fall in love, if you aren't already. If you have, fall in love with your partner all over again. Abandon caution and let your heart be broken. Or love family members, friends, anyone -- it doesn't have to be romantic love. Love all of humanity, one person at a time.


Get outside. Don't let yourself be shut indoors. Go out when it's raining. Walk on the beach. Hike through the woods. Swim in a freezing lake. Bask in the sun. Play sports, or walk barefoot through grass. Pay close attention to nature.



Savor food. Don't just eat your food, but really enjoy it. Feel the texture, the bursts of flavors. Savor every bite. If you limit your intake of sweets, it will make the small treats you give yourself (berries or dark chocolate are my favorites) even more enjoyable. And when you do have them, really, really savor them. Slowly.



Create a morning ritual. Wake early and greet the day. Watch the sun rise. Out loud, tell yourself that you will not waste this day, which is a gift. You will be compassionate to your fellow human beings, and live every moment to its fullest. Stretch or meditate or exercise as part of your ritual. Enjoy some coffee.

Raaaaaaaaaar!

Ok so that was my pathetic attempt at a growl.

I've never been a big sneaker/trainer fan, I mean don't get me wrong I like 'em but I rarely ever wear them.

So you'd be surprised to see what is hot on my iwannit list right now.

Yeah you guessed it a pair of trainers.

Nike Air Max 1 Leopard
I've seen these bad boys floating around for a hot minute now and they've really intrigued me. How sexy cute are they?

I've had a little looksy online but it seems they're sold out. *wipes a tear* so if anyone out there knows where I can get hold of a pair of UK size 5's holla.

Bye Bye Brady

Just woke up to some of the worst news ever.

As a massive Hollyoaks fan, I was saddened to hear that the actor that plays Brendan Brady (Emmett J. Scanlan) had announced he was leaving after 2 1/2 years on the show.

Lime Pictures
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo *sobs like a little girl*  Why Emmett why? You were like my favourite character ever, I loved you so much, you and your tashe, the show just won't be the same without you! Please don't go! Stay! Please! If you change your mind, I'll do anything, I'll watch the show everyday at 6:30 and then change over to E4 at 7pm to watch the first look and I'll watch the Omnibus every weekend and even on 4OD. Just please say that you'll stay! *goes off to cry some more*

Okay, now that I've got that out of my system, I believe that losing Brendan is a huge loss for Hollyoaks. Though he was a bad boy, he was a favourite and in my eyes could do no wrong. With storylines that included his abusive relationship with Ste, his battles with Warren and his struggles to keep the respect and love of his sister Cheryl; Brendan became a popular character with viewers and will be surely missed. However, just like a good TV show announcing it's final season; in a way I guess it's a good thing he leaves now, so he leaves on a high and doesn't get put in long, boring drawn out storylines. So here's hoping his exit storyline will be an amazing one.

I remember when I got the chance to visit the set one time, I managed to get a glimpse of the man himself and I can tell you that was the highlight of my day, ask all my mates, they'll tell you I wouldn't shut up about it.

So here's a toast *raises an invisible glass*. To Emmett, thank you for gracing my screen as my favourite bad boy Brendan Brady, I wish you all the success in your future endeavours. Chin chin.

*Heads off to the Brendan Brady Appreciation thread on Digital Spy to wallow with my fellow Bradyites and cry some more*

Chris Brown Azonto

So we all knew that Chris Breezy took a trip back to my homeland of Nigeria; well if you didn't know, now you do.

So I was doing a little internet trawling and I came across this footage of Chris doing Azonto, whilst on his trip out there.


Gwarn Chris!

Someone's Turning 30...

No, not me (I've got a few more years yet), no I'm talking about CITV. 

Children's ITV turned 30 on the 3rd Jan and to celebrate CITV are in the midst of a Nostalgia Weekender.




Today we were treated to:

9:25 Mike and Angelo 9:50 Super Gran 10:15 Wizadora 10:30 T-Bag 10:50 Engie Benjy 11:05 The Raggy Dolls 11:15 Puddle Lane 11:35 Count Duckula 12:00 The Sooty Show 12:25 Art Attack 12:40 The Big Bang 1:00 Finders Keepers 1:30 Fun House 2:00 Knightmare 2:30 Fraggle Rock 3:00 The Worst Witch 3:30 Woof! 4:00 Dramarama: Blackbird Singing In The Dead of Night 4:30 Press Gang 5:00 The Tomorrow People 5:30 Children's Ward.

I was most excited about Finders Keepers, Raggy Dolls and Children's Ward, but most of all Fun House. When the theme tune for Fun House came on I nearly wet myself, I looooooooooved that show.
I've always said that my dream birthday would be to run about the sets of Finder's Keepers and Fun House. I always wanted to go on those shows when I was younger and having the chance to be able to live out one of my childhood dreams would be... well a dream come true. I guess we can all dream.
Tomorrow we are getting treated to:
9:25 Mike and Angelo 9:50 Spatz 10:10 Huxley Pig 10:30 Rainbow 10:50 Button Moon 11:05 The Riddlers 11:15 Rosie and Jim 11:35 Dangermouse 12:00 Sooty & Co 12:25pm How 2 12:40 Fingertips 1:00 Jungle Run 1:30 Fun House 2:00 Knightmare 2:30 Fraggle Rock 3:00 My Parents are Aliens 3:30 Woof  4:00 Dramarama: Back to Front 4:30 Press Gang 5:00 The Tomorrow People 5:30 Children's Ward
I'm most excited about Rosie and Jim, Dangermouse, How 2, the second episodes of Children's Ward and of course Fun House and My Parents are Aliens.
Happy 30th CITV, thank you for blessing my childhood with many tellybox memories and treats xxx
