Wuthering Heights TOTP
Kate's first TOTP performance. She hated it and said after watching it afterwards "it was like watching myself die". However, even though she does look slightly overwhelmed she keeps going and I actually love this performance. I love her voice, the audience seems to think she is barking, and I totally understand why! Poor kate, she was only 18 here I think, so the whole thing must have been terrifying! wait.. my mistake, 19! Just wondering, Kayomi, was this the one you saw on TV?

4 Days 9 Hours until ...
Yo! Well, as of dieses moment es ist 4 days and 9 hours until the arrival of spore!!! And, last night we pre-ordered it so hopefully it should arrive on the day of release, if not the day after. Very excited, and it was only £29.99 instead of £39.99 as we got it online, and free delivery! What more can one ask? Well, the youtube spore channel as added a video about the space stage if you're interested you dudes can c-c-c-check it out. This (I believe) is going to be the box cover for spore. It looks shit, it makes it look like some 3 year olds game. It should have a big planet on the cover or something, animal crossing style. But no. Oh well. We know the game rocks really, on the inside :) Heh. Well I am megaly looking forward to it, let's just hope it doesn't distract from actual work haha. Then there will be sims 3 just after I've gotten over spore! Oh dear.. not so hot. Oh yeah so HP7 is going ok but its a bit too eventful, if you get my jist. I think I'm on p160 or 170 or around there. No wait I am on p180 I just looked. Yeah its good, I'm being a little sluggish reading it though, when I'm upto it I can read things super quick, there's just too much to take in for this book! Red dragon is calling ... Anyways, I have a picture which I may have shown Kayomi, prob yes, with Alison with reddish hair, so it could be natural might post. But seeing her haircolour in Your Night Tonight (haha that is still oh so hilarious, I hope you enjoyed it) I'm guessing that she wouldn't have gone natural inbetween? Well, you never know. Vas else... Life... 
I saw "the human stain" (film) was quite good but I got the vibe the book is waaay better. Acting was superb though, with Nicole Kidman and Anthony Hopkins taking the main roles, however it was a little disturbing seeing them ... together. I just can't help thinking Hannibal Lector with Satine or Mrs. Coulter. Weird. Anyway, good acting but was missing the spark. Also saw "lost in translation" which is a very uneventful film, but as a whole I liked it. The ending made it really. Very cute but I was crying my eyes out - it was so sad! It just seemed so real. I always meet people, then have to say goodbye and you know you'll never see them again. Always happens. So sad. It's about a famous actor, who is quite old and just does adverts and stuff now, and he comes to japan to do some promo work. He's really seperate from his family, and of course can't understand japanese. There is also a young girl, scarlet johansson, who is in japan with her photographer husband. And she is left alone everyday so has to try and amuse herself. Then the old guy and the girl meet, so they become friends and have company in a foreign country. It's about two bored people being bored together, as my mum put it. And very true. It's just as if the camera is following them doing ordinary things.
It was interesting, but I wouldn't watch it again for quite a while. Worth seeing though. There were several hilarious moments, like not being able to understand the running machine's instructions so it just goes faster and faster (hahaha) and a woman coming into his room and telling him to "lip her stockings" which was hilarious but so awful. As soon as he touched her she started rolling around on the floor it was so funny. poor guy though. Oh yeah, and I'm gunna be a-postin that other live KB video. Mwhah. Hehehe. In just under two months... hehehehe. 58 days... mwhahaha. That's ages away. I remember when spore what that far away. Geesh it went fast. I don't want it ever to end when it comes though. Sigh. Must stop talking about it, I just can't heellpp it!!!! Still don't believe it. Anyway, spoooreee... Oh yeah it appears that it is a click controlled game meaning you click where you want to move, and the same in the space phase. I am slightly confused how the tools work though as it appears lines come out of all your ships or whatever and then you click and well it's just confusing. OH yeah ps sorry there are two lost in translation covers and I couldn't decide which I liked best so I used both teehee. Touching ending... anyway, stop distracting from SPORE cathy! The awesomeness ensues. What else, hmm, errr. OH tja in civ stage you can't place buildings anywhere, I don't think, I think your city comes with sortof, prongs??
err and you can place buildings on them, and you have say 5 or 6 prongs, so you can choose that many buildings. But seeing as you can create the buildings I am not complaining. It's a shame you can't evolve your creature once it's reached tribal stage though, as surely even we're evolving all the time? Just slower I guess as we are dependant on things. My spelling is going dooownhill. What else to say.. Oh yeah, they've scrapped the water stage 
. but I can understand why. It was just so cool. It was basically the cell stage in 3D. But tis no more. Oh well. So your cell crawls on land??? Oh well. It still looks rocking. If it sucks then I will be maaaad. My ennio morricone CDs still havn't come into the library :(. I think the lady who ordered them did it wrong. Sigh. Oh yeah, and maybe I'll wait until Mamma Mia is in the library and get it then instead. What else to say.. nothing ahaekheah. Hmmph. Better do something with a point now. Posting is better but sigh. I feel like such a retard loner posting to myself. And celebrating by myself about the 29th!!!!!! YOOO! Whatever happens NO PARTYS that night. I won't come. Oh yyyyeeaahhhh. So exciteypooed. Well meh bunnehs are happeh too I am sure. Not that they care. I am thinking of wearing something insaaane. Sigh. I will go shopping next weekend for insane stuff. I have a new cool belt which might do... Must watch silence of the lambs again... and I really wanna see the brave one again too... both so good! Brave one overrated as 18 so badly. Sweeney was worse. Kinda feel like the shining too... OOH yeah! And the shining just became available on iTunes for £6.99! or was it £7.99... oh well. Am seriously considering it! If I could choose I would have on my ipod:+ the shining
+ enchanted
+ the brave one
+ closer
+ phantom of the opera
+ silence of the lambs
+ sweeney todd
+ matrix maybe
+ spirited away maybe
+ flightplan maybe
+ panic room
+ shrek
+ bridget jones
+ the ring
+ pan's labyrinth
Ok no ipod has that much room hahaha. Sigh. Maybe the biggest iPhone would?? Maye just rotate one or two films at a time. I am really seriously blabbing now. Ok, well, look forward to meh spore review when it comes to meh! Byeeee

Alison's Tattoo
Hey Yo I promised (well, said) several times that I would post on this rather random subject, and so I have decided to do so. As you all probably know by now as I have mentioned it on many an occasion, Alison has a small tattoo on the middle finger of her right hand. I am pretty sure she just made up the symbol, but it was inspired by pagan symbols and she used to pretend it meant something. She pricked it herself in her rebel years, and still has it to this day. It's actually quite a good place for a tattoo. Anyways, sometimes it is covered over in photos, but normally it is on display, just finding photos with it showing clearly is proving very hard. The large one at the top is from Tricky's video "Pumpkin" which alison sang on pre-goldfrapp, so I could get a decent close-up. I also tried to find others, but they are no where near as good as the big one, I have loads more but these are probably the clearest. If I have time tomorrow I will go on the windows side and draw it in paint to make it clearer.
All taken from random Goldfrapp images. Apparently there's a really really good shot of it when she's in the studio, with her head in her hand when she's wearing a white cap. Now I have seen other photos of her in the studio with her white cap, but none sitting down with head in hand, aahh! Maybe this person was referring to a video, as there are some of her in this hat in the studio. I'll have a poke around again if I have time. I'm not really sure what else to say on the subject, except I'm suprised she still has it after say at least 20 years, maybe even 25 years, and she isn't bored of it?? I would prob be bored in at least a year or 6 months and get it removed. Oh well, it prob holds sentimental value. It's cute. Sorry about randomness but enjoy!

The Frapp
Tja mwaha the time as come my little friends to talk of many things, of shoes and ships and ceiling wax, of cabbages and kings, and why the sea is boiling hot, and of goldfrappy things. Right, I figured I should tell you a little more indepthly about them, without going too personal. I have managed to work out that dispite my previous opinions, the chances of a "petite romance" between them is very unlikely (locked away in a house together for six months?? I still find it hard to believe). I am pretty sure that Will is actually, in fact, married. I am not sure, but I know that he has a young son, maybe he has more children but definitely a son, so I am guessing married but I don't know. Alison however I am just as sure is not married, although I would find it hard to believe that she doesn't have a partner. I know she has had boyfriends in the past, and she said something about living alone with her cat, but these guys are sexually obsessed I swear so she has to at least have short term partners 
. Anyway, I also read something that made me want to cry it was so sad. She said that she had always wanted to be a mother, but then she suddenly finds herself alot older than she had planned (42, we're guessing) and she has decided to just stick to her work and abandon becomming a mum, besides she isn't sure how good she would be at it. I confess I'm not so sure either, but then I don't know her. C'mon Alison! It isn't too late! She looks fitter than most people I know in their 40s. You can do it!! Sigh. She can't work forever, although I would love for goldfrapp to keep going. Nearly all my favourite bands and singers are oooollddd and all my favourite actresses (par emmy rossum perhaps and one or two others) are oooollddd. I have an odd attraction to people over the age of 40, esp. in their 40s. Helena BC, Johnny D, Nicole K, Jodie F, Uma T (not quite 40), and Meryl S is 59 I think, KB only just turned 50, and Will G is 48 I think, and Alison is rumoured to be 42. AAhhhh. Laura M is still young I guess. There are many others. Anyways, back to The Frapp. (will finnish later I have things to do) Ok back again. Apparently will is an accomplished Saxophonist - one thing we have in common minus the accomplished. Not sure what else to say about them, they're pretty mysterious as a pair, eh? I won't delve into Alison's rather rebellious past, as I get the vibe she isn't exactly proud of it anymore, but instead I will tell the fact that at one point she wanted to be a nun. Hahaha. As for Will.. err.. I think he played with a few reasonably well known bands but he said that he "can't do much ... else". So We'll leave it there. Anyways... That was a pointless blab but I hope you enjoyed the few goldfrappy facts that were there. And... I will be posting on "the tatoo" shortly. AHhhh I still have to do the dreaming, well it's coming. Anyways, 29th *wink wink wink* Mwwhwhaahaaaa. Must contain self. Must contain. Sigh. I'm thinking about what I am going to wear already I am THAT sad. I think I may just buy a baggy shirt and use a belt then wear my ultra cool red tights (thank you kayomi!!!!) Or wear that red cardigan if I ever buy it. Ok blabbing. And deffers glitter under eyes as a little tribute :) WOWOW I CANT BELIEVE IT. Chill chill breathe. I will not spam. Oh yeah, I finnished HP6 not last night but night before, and am reading HP7, on p100 aprox. It's ok but a bit too eventful. Red Dragon is calling to me. Want to read it... anyways. WOWWO. Hehe, bye!
