TEN SECRETS

one.

I have *cough* "fantasies" *cough* about Fenrir Greyback (Harry Potter)

two.

I've never finished reading The Hobbit - ever

even though I always list it as a book I have read!

HOLY CRAP THIS IS HARD!

three.

I have anxiety and depression, but don't take medication.

I don't like medication.

I think I can do it without it.

four.

I'm attracted to older men

but always end up with crushes on younger guys IRL.

if someone pisses me off, I do things that annoy them on purpose but act like the nicest person ever!

I really really don't like dogs!

I have so many clothes that I'm too scared to wear.

Doctor Who Series 7 Part 2.... ie the new NEIL GAIMAN episode!

Which was amazing!

It had Warrick Davis in it.

as well as John Hurt.
But I won't go into that because.... SPOILERS!

Minecraft Server.

I was invited to join TheGrumpyHusky's minecraft server.

I'm the only girl.

There is 4 of us.

I made a tour video.

I'm adorable :D

Game of Thrones.

I haven't watched any of Season 3 yet.

Over the weekend they had the Red Wedding episode.

Everyone is so sad and full of feels.

I knew who was going to die.

It will probably still be sad.

I'm looking forward to June.

SUPANOVA.

and then July.

PAX!

Other things that happened in May.

I've become motivated to EXERCISE!

I have a personal trainer (I got 3 free sessions when I joined the gym, but I think I'll pay for more)

I acquired this.

That, dear friends is the 30+ disc Harry Potter Wizarding Collection!

It's freaking amazing! Each film has 3+ discs, there are bonus discs, books, postcards.

I will do a video "unboxing" one day :D

Anyway.

YES! She has the right eyes and the right quirkyness :)

Urm... no... I don't know how a buff women could be right for a fat Hobbit :D

Don't know who this is. But she looks the part!

YES! I love Kate Winslet. She has the same grown up silliness!

Yep! Anne & Kate as Pippin and Merry would be amazing!

As much as I don't really like Keira Knightly. This is a good match

Haha! Yes. Love Geena. She would be perfect.

Wait.... but isn't she.... actually, she could make a really good Aragorn

Hmmmm.... I guess. It's weird thinking of him with Cate.

OH MY FUCKING GOD YES!

Don't know who she is. She looks really familiar! But yes!

Yes. Who is she?

OHMERGERD!

Yes. Would miss not having Karl Urban in the film :(

YES YES YES YES YES!

Don't know who she is. But she looks the part.

Cruella De Vil. YES!

YES! She could be the only one to play female Saruman!

Free Online Courses aka Constructive Procrastination

Curtain University have started offering free online courses. They range from Food & Nutrition, Psychology, Astronomy and Web Design.

They're about 4 weeks long. Some have already started. Some don't start until July.

I have enrolled in Writing for the Web - to hopefully increase my awesome writing skills and Astronomy: Discovering the Universe - which doesn't start until July, but I'm super excited about.

I know some of you may be rolling your eyes. I have so much anxiety about my current studies, why should I do something that will take up time etc. etc. But It's something constructive I can do while procrastinating, instead of playing Minecraft.

You can view the other courses available HERE

I assume it's open to everyone all over the world.

ULTIMATE DINNER PARTY!

Dinner Party - I stole this idea from Leah @ Just Me, Leah <-- click there to see who she invited

Dinner party time - Who would you invite? What music is playing? What are you eating? Is there entertainment? Let your imagination go wild!

Who?
Karl Urban
Alan Rickman
Sir Richard Branson
Peter Jackson
David Tennant
Neil Gaiman
Michael Palin
Douglas Adams
Bear Grylls (just incase we get stranded!)
JJ Abrams
Joss Whedon
Tom Hiddleston
Benedict Cumberbatch
Harrison Ford
Billy Talent (band)
Sips & Sjin (youtubers)
George Lucas
Tim Minchin
Liam Neeson
Aiden Gillen
Domhnall Gleeson
Tim Burton
Prof Brian Cox
Dr Brian May
Alan Davies
Stephen Fry
Steven Spielberg

I could seriously go on. It's more of a party then Dinner. I've probably missed some pretty important people.... and they're all MEN!!!! Probably should invite some women...

Rebel Wilson
Dame Helen Mirren
Liv Tyler
Zooey Deschanel
Anne Hathaway
Emma :)

Seriously I suck at remembering women I love! LOL!

What?

It would be oh so grand. :) I just love the idea of having an outdoor party. It probably wouldn't work that well in Australia in Spring or Summer because of the mozzies. But in Autumn when some of the trees are losing their leaves and it's cold, but still warm enough to be outside. (I would supply knitted blankets for people to wrap around themselves when it got colder, as well as a huge bonfire.

There would be a couple of Sofas and Rugs (yes outside) to sit on and cushions and blankets.

There would be telescopes set up and Prof. Cox would tell us about space, and Stephen Fry would be hilarious. Everyone would be relaxed.

We would probably eat roast meats and vegetables, something super yum but not overly fancy. For dessert there would be cupcakes and apple pie and custard. Sort of Mad Hatters tea-partyish. We would drink beer and cocktails and wine (not that I drink) and we would be merry and chat into the early hours.

Music wise, I would probably have to invite a band like Mumford and Sons or Flogging Molly, something nice and acoustic. Might try and get a piano out there somehow, so Prof. Cox or Tim Minchin (or whoever wanted) could sing a few songs)

There would also be Polaroid Cameras. Everyone can take photos etc.

This is pretty much what I want for a birthday party for myself or my wedding (except when I get married I want to be married by a Stormtrooper :D)

Who would you invite? What sort of party would you have? Leave a comment or post a blog (but please let me know so I can check it out :D)

Bye-ee!

What would you like to read about?

Why do I feel like I want to be "internet famous"

I want more comments, more followers just more.

But then again I don't.

I love my blog but wish it was more structured.

Less of a personal diary and more of something that people would love to read.

But I don't know what I want to write about.

What do you want to read about?

Movies

Music

Books

or do you like the way my blog is?

If I was more organised it would be better.

But Procrastination is my closest friend.

It took me ALL DAY to clean down my desk!

BEFORE

AFTER

I did, however, find my Tamagotchi.

GO ME!

I realised that I haven't shown you the other Harry Potter wands in my collection.

You've seen Snapes and Scabiors

But I have Sirius Blacks, Fenrir Greybacks and The Elder Wand now.

I will try and do a post on Sunday.

Anyway.

Time for work.
