Happy Pancake Day!!!

Yay!!! Happy Pancake Day!!! Let the Pancake party commence!!!

Me and my mates have this lil tradition where we make a huge batch of pancakes and just go crazy, but unfortunately due to certain circumstances we won't be able to do it this year *wiping a tear*.

So what is the true meaning of pancake day. Because it sure isn't just about gorging ourselves on them.

Pancake Day falls on Shrove Tuesday, this is the day that precedes Ash Wednesday; the first day of Lent (the Christian season of prayer and fasting). On this day before Lent people make pancakes which many consider to be the 'last feast'. Pancakes include the ingredients: Sugar, Fat and Eggs. These food types are traditionally 'restricted' during the period of Lent.

I always get upset cos Pancake day always falls on days surrounding my birthday, but never on the actual day. So I did my internet thing and I found out that in the years 2042 and 2048 Pancake day will fall on my birthday!!! Yay!!! Celebrate good times c'mon!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Happy Valentines Day to you all xxx

I'm not really one for all that lovey-dovey bull moloney; but as it is the official day of love... just wanted to say 'I Love You' to all my valued followers...there I did it...now back to business.

So what is this Valentine's Day???

Saint Valentine's Day is named after the martyred Christian saint 'Valentine' and was established by Pope Gelasius I in AD 496. It was first acknowledged as a romantic holiday in the High Middle Ages in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer; where 'courtly love' was in its peak. So to all you Valentine's Day haters (me included) it is not a hallmark created holiday!!! Valentine's Day is a long-time traditionally celebrated day of love.

We need to get past the chocolate, cards and gifts and see it as a day where love is openly celebrated. So if you are one of those people that think of it only as a day filled with chocolates, cards and gifts; then my answer is... don't buy them. Instead use the day to spend time with your loved ones and tell them that you love them. Simplessss!!!

New Video: Rihanna's Rude Boy

The video was directed by Melina Matsoukas who directed Rihanna's 'Hard' video. Rihanna described the video as "completely different from any other video I’ve shot before. A lot of my videos are really dark and edgy and tough. 'Rude Boy' is more playing along the lines from my roots."

Toy Story 3: New Trailer

I am actually really excited to see this movie. This is one movie I must see in 2010. As a child that grew up with Toy Story I am glad to welcome it back.

TOY STORY 3 Trailer #2


OMG I can't believe that Andy has grown up!! I am loving the fact that the story has aged as well and it isn't just a movie that picks up where it left off. The fact that Andy is off to college now and the toys are off on a new adventure makes me even more excited for its return.

The graphics look amazing; the way that animation has developed over the years never ceases to amaze me.

Fav bits so far:
When the toys scream 'New Toys....Yay!!!'
The dinosaur tryna hide her business on the computer
