Izzy's PJ Cat....

Here's a pic of my friend Izzy's two cats...one is real, the other is handmade out of her old pj's...can you tell which one's which yet? Haha, just kidding!
I absolutely love them both, but she is so very talnted to make her little colourful kitty...Anyone that can sew in my eyes is around the same level as some kind of deity. I praise thee that can sew...Hands up high and eyes closed in prayer...I praise thee stitchers of the world. Hallelujah, blanket stitch, amen! x

Fave song of the moment...

When I first got the Leisure Society album (The Sleeper), I completely overlooked it...I don't know how! I listened to it again recently, and now I just can't stop! I love it! It's amazing and my absolute favourite song on the album is 'The Last of the Melting Snow'....I really really love it...In a way I'm glad I overlooked it, coz it's always nice to go back and find a gem! If you don't have it, I really recommend getting it :) Lovely jubbly xxx

One slipper ready to be sewn...

Here's one completed slipper...well, half completed slipper. I just have to sew it up and then I have a nice item of coziness. I regret knitting it on 4mm needles though...It's come up a bit big and I'm a bit gutted as I love this wool (it's mohair mix) and really soft but I can't really take it apart now and do it again as it all binds together. Oh well! The moral is- go with your gut, not the pattern! Now I just need Emme Lou's neat sewing-hand to help me as I am useless at sewing- I do it, but it looks like a 3 year old has stitched it! I need some tips my little crocheting, stitching, knitting friend...Emme-Lou "hook me up!"...ha ha...pun! Get it, get it?...well, more of a crochet joke.......ohhhhh dear...sighhhh!! xxx

Hahahaha... R Kelly is so classy! "Girl you make me wanna get you pregnant...Lay you down and get you pregnant...Knock you up...Knock you u-uuuup...Much like my patrone I'm trying to take it straight!"...He is one smooth P.I.M.P!!! Loves! x

I am on the creamy crack....

I watched this last night..."Good Hair ft. Chris Rock"....it was really good! Watch it! Although the trailer is pretty much the whole content of the film...But still good! x

Mariah Carey - Merry Christmas II You...

Now, I'm not a fan of Christmas, but I am a fan of Mariah Carey...and if there's one thing that'll actually make me vaguely look forward to Christmas, it's the release of her new Christmas album.

The official album cover and tracklist was posted on Blazing Swarm...So here they are!

2. Oh Santa!
3. O Little Town of Bethlehem / Little Drummer Boy Medley

Knitting On Pencils...

Every Monday at uni, we get given a piece of group work to go away and do but it was ridiculously boring and I just can't sit still for too long! I get so distracted and fidgety! We were in a spare classroom that had lots of goodies and resources for primary teaching, and out of the corner of my eye, I spotted some yarn and some large pencils! Ding...A light went on in my head and I made a b-line for them and started creating...something! It made me slightly less disruptive by not distracting people or kicking their chairs like an ADHD kid to get them to 'play with me'...I find that I always need to be doing something...like knitting or tapping (how irritating) to make me concentrate... It's just the way I am unfortunately! :D xxx

I can't believe this girl!

A friend introduced me to this video...it's Tal Wilkenfeld on bass...who is AMAZINGLY talented and is the same age as me! Damnnnnnn! I can't even begin to imagine being that musically talented, let alone at such a young age...Think this video is 2007....depressing!!!! Good for her though- sure it didn't come without practice!!! x

Yes Tom Petty...Yes!

That's all I have to say....Ha x

She & Him - If You Can't Sleep

This is such a cute song...I've realised that my blog is quick becoming a video blog...but hey...that's fine with me! Now shut up and listen to the cute song!! :D x

Blue Man Group Fulfilling My Junk Band Dreams!

So...whilst fantasising about making a junk band using drainpipes, golf club tubes, pots, pans and shopping trollies, my friend Nick told me about the "Blue Man Group" who are amazing! They're pretty much a junk band and are insanely talented! It's definitely something I'd like to dabble in!
