Tribute to MJ

Posted by: avengingapril on: June 26, 2009

michael jackson

It’s very sad news. Holly woke up at 4.15am today and wouldn’t go back to sleep so I gave in and went downstairs to feed her. I turned on the telly which instantly brings up BBC1 and the news was on. I heard that someone had died and I thought “Oh god, who is it this time”
And it’s Michael Jackson.
[I also learned not long after that Farrah Fawcett also died yesterday but I'd be lying if I said I was much of a fan of hers but still very sad and tragic for everyone close to her]

My Top Five Jackson songs [no particular order]
1. Dirty Diana [the video for this song was on a taped video we had of episodes of Garfeild. It would come on just before Garfield started.
2. Thriller [come on!! fantastic!]
3. Black Or White [I used to dance to this song day and night!]
4. Earth Song [a brilliant song!]
5. ABC [ok, a jackson five song but still even today i will dance to this]

i have so many more but i thought i’d limit it to five lol!

Top Five “wacko jacko” moments
1. hanging his child outside of the window
2. turning up to court in his pj’s
3. “accepting” the artist of the century award… wha???
4. going white!
5. his nose falling off [now i hear this is true/isnt true but its definitely one that stayed with him!]

Top Five MJ quotes
1. I just wish I could understand my father.
2. I’m just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarass easily
3. Because I think every child star suffers through this period because you’re not the cute and charming child that you were. You start to grow, and they want to keep you little forever.
4. Everyone who knows me will know the truth, which is that my children come first in my life and that I would never harm any child.
5. I have a skin disorder that destroys the pigmentation of my skin, it’s something that I cannot help, OK?

Top five music videos
1. thriller
2. smooth criminal
3. scream
4. earth song
5. bad

Rest In Peace

The first two have little stick ons. I need to get loads more back papers and stick ons but I am so skint. Seriously. I’m actually a little worried because I really need to pay back credits and what not. Eeeeh.

I think I’m going to have to cut up my credit cards before they get out of hand. I obviously can’t be trusted lol

This is Lady Bug

She is trapped in a box. She’s wants to get out to eat the leaf but she can not leave her box.

Lets stop putting ladybugs in boxes. It’s just darn cruel.

I stole from Charis.

a bit of a ramble

Posted by: avengingapril on: June 6, 2009

I used to drink these like hazelnut hot chocolates and boy, on a crappy day like today I could do with one. I’m virtually craving for one!! ARGH I think a trip to the centre with the kids is due to go and buy some. Mocha’s, cappacino’s, lattes… PLEASE I NEED THEM!!

Moving on before I drown my keyboard in saliva…!

So I was ill and didn’t manage to make any new frames last week… which sucks. But I’m better so hopefully will make some new ones tomorrow. I did make some other ones previous but I just didn’t post about them! I started to mix materials so you get an over lapping effect- makes them more pretty.

I’ve not done any painting. no inspiration. I so want to paint but I dont know WHAT to paint. Painters drought. Blegh.

I’ve been going out all week with Holly- which is amazing because I think I was starting to become a bit argophobic there for a bit! I just wouldn’t go out except to get supplies!!
But lovely weather got the better of me. Plus Holly loves to go out so it keeps her quiet for a bit ;-)

I’ve caught the sun but that actually means that I’m now normal human skin colour… I’m usually very pale!!
I’d love to wear skirts but I think people would just faint at the sight of my paley leggies!!

However… the sun has gone for the weekend. Phooey. So I guess it’s time to bring out the old cardi’s again!!

very shocking news.

Posted by: avengingapril on: June 4, 2009

emily

I’ve had some very disturbing news. I’ve been using an online diary for about six years and I’ve known this one particular girl for about five years, she has three children and her youngest is 3 years. She was born very prematurely- I think at 24 weeks, and has been very poorly since. This year she was admitted to hospital on April 15th and hasn’t come out yet, doctors were baffled but after a discovery they put some surviellence cameras in her room and it turns out that her mother, my friend, had been smearing the little girls own feces over her pic lines and putting it down ehr feeding tube.
She admitted and was arrested [and was unusually release and then rearrested]
i can’t believe it. she seemed like the perfect mum in most aspects. It’s all over the news [in america, she's from Texas] and we’re all in complete shock over at my diary.

The sun had been shining and I’ve been taking Holly out in it and now I’m getting tanned. Which is odd for me as I’m very very very white. I’m probably the whitest girl in Oxford.

I’m having to write this for the THIRD time because of my shit computer and this doesn’t let you copy and paste!!

I haven’t done much painting lately except for a black woman that I did

black woman

I think it’s ok but I’ve fiddled about with it so much that it doesn’t really look how I originally though it would in my head.

I’ve changed Emma’s bedroom, it now has a Japanese doll theme to it

emma's room

I hope she liked it. She saw the stuffed doll yesterday and liked it, she’s at my parents house at the moment so it’ll be a nice surprise for when she comes home.

It’s her fifth birthday on the 29th and we’re planning to take her to Odds Farm in High Wycombe.
It has bottle feeding lambs and kids, Milking demonstrations, Goat Show, Sheep Racing, Piggies Tea Time, Rabbit World, Meet The Animals, Egg Collecting, Tractor and Trailer Rides, Adventure Maze, Crazy Golf, Go-carts, and a few more things but are only done in certain seasons.
I’m really excited about going haha! I’ve not told Emma we’re going incase it’s pissing down with rain the whole week of her birthday [which is in the half term holidays] and we can’t go.
Paul doesn’t want to go because there are pigs there and he doesn’t wanna catch Swine Flu…. !!!!
