the boy picasso

''I am always doing that in which i cannot do, in order to learn how to do it.'' -Pablo Picasso

He was a genius. He inspired the world. He changed art. I mean art can be defined as anything, but for his period of time, it was just so different, it changed it. Even through the war when he lived in Paris, the Nazi style was so different, he continued with what he wanted to paint like, and had bronze smuggled into Paris for him.

''Art is a lie that makes up realise his truth''
-Pablo Picasso

Right lets get off this subject, i have so much more to say about Picasso and loads of other artists, but i shan't bore you.

this was a bit of a pointless post, but i just wanted to say something aha.

so sorry for wasting the few minutes of your life you took to read this.

bones of gold

okay so i was in the park other day. and one of my friends Marissa is well skinny, but i gave her a piggy back, and was not expecting her weight to be that heavy! i'm sure her bones must be made of gold or brick or something. So strange!
its like you lifting a feather but it weighing an incredible 2 stone... would you expect a feather to weight that? uhh no.

its 3am already? fair play. time to go to bed i guess :)

Little Umbrellas.

you know those little umbrellas that you get in drinks or ice creams? well i saw one on the ground today, picked it up just cause i'm weird like that, and there was a bug underneath it.. I think it wanted to be a human.

Tonight was soooo fun!
Me and my flatmate Christine, and my friend Shauna decided to be pyromaniacs.
It started all innocent by simply lighting a few things on fire.
Then we decided lets get a bottle and hold a candle in it, they spray some deodorant. I held the candle and Christine held the bottle, then she sprayed the deodorant.. An insanely huge fully green/blue flame, it was beautiful, Christine's hand caught fire too, but she's fine.
THEN, we covered the table in nail polish remover and lit it, it was INSANE! so cool, and again Christine got burnt.
And we did this a lot. Good times i must admit.

Did you know there were more bananas than humans in the world..

i don't like horses. Their shoes are permanent. Who makes that kind of commitment to a shoe.

I had a nigthmare

It was horrible, i cant remember it anymore, but i woke up really scared. great :/

Off to Glasgow Green park today for a wee picnic with the girls.. :) sunny day we chose too. YAss

I sometimes feel like a schizophrenic.

Alright lads, ready for some crazy?
Okay so this dream happened a while ago, and it really freaked me out, my sister loved the dream, but it scared me so much, probably because i was in the dream...

It was about this crazy man who had escaped from a mental hospital. I was just standing watching him, like it wasn't from my perspective. He thought he was doing something, but he was actually doing something completely different.
The dream was set as two different parts of this one guy, there was the real world where everything was really dark and bad, and there was his imagination that he saw everywhere, where everything was happy and bright and normal, and thats how he saw everything.
So he was in the zoo and he thought he was feeding the animals, and then it suddenly changed perspectives to the real world and what he was really doing which was standing over a man tied up in a van and sticking needles into this guy's face and he just kept doing it.
And then it switched back to his happy perspective of what he thought he was doing, one of the animals had escaped and he was running after it to take it back to the zoo, but then it switched back to reality again and he was chasing after me, and he caught up with me and i looked down as i was running and saw a huge knife come right through me and i fell down dead.
Once i died the dream still went on though.
And then in switched back to his views again and all these people were crowding round him and cheering like oh well done you caught the animal, good for you and everything. then perspective changed again and all these police were grabbing him and he was just stabbing them all.
And i cant remember the rest anymore but it was all just him and his 2 different sides..

Crazy huh? Well it properly freaked me out, i was stupid and went for a shower when i woke up, BAD IDEA, i was standing in the shower and i was totally scared and shaky thinking the guy was behind the curtain with those needles in his hands ready to stick in my face. i had to keep opening it really slowly and peeking to see if he was there... Probably the scariest dream i've had in a long time, just because of the fear i had in the shower after waking.

I didn't want to go back to sleep, the dream stuck in my head for a few days, it properly shook me up and i dont know why.

ciao bella. x x x

OCD OCD OCD!

Who folds their clothes in their sleep?
-Me.

Who has to have dvds in alphabetical order?
-Me.

Who has to have everything in the exact place?
-Me.

Who has to have pens and pencils in the correct rainbow order?
-Me.

Who likes cleaning and cleans other peoples rooms such as Kirsty's and Paul's and any untidy room?
-thats right, its me!

Its a problem, but i like everything to me neat and tidy, yes yes, neat freak, like tonight i am ashamed but my room is messy, and now the cleaning commences, and once i get into cleaning, i clean EVERYTHING!
but you know, i would make a good wife with my cleaning habits, and of course my excellent cooking skills, of course ;) ha. but naw, i do like cooking too. So yes, i would be an amazing wife. ha!

I even feel OCD should be spelt CDO, just for the fact it would be in alphabetical order, the OCDer inventor didn't really think that one through did he/she..

I feel after this post i seem crazy, but i'm not. Next time i will have to tell you about my schizophrenic dream... INSANE!

Hypnotized in the Capital



Righty so i was in Edinburgh on Saturday and we went to this camera obscura place (would recommend it) and its basically this place that messed with my mind, it had loads of optical illusions and things like that and a mirror maze and some vortex to walk though that made me feel like i was some kind of drunk cause i was falling all around but it was just a normal path that had insaneness around it. And many other fun things like that.

But anyway, my best friend Abigail was telling this particular story to everyone and she couldnt say it she was crying so much from laughing at it, its not even funny if you weren't there, but she was in tears and took about 10 minutes to get words out.. i was looking at this one optical illusion and i was just so stuck in it. Couldn't look away. And i hit her and said still staring at ''get me out of this'' and she shook me and woke me out of it'', then she was on the floor for a while cause apparently my face was hilarious... see not that funny is it. ha

When you get onto the roof of this place there is loads of binoculars around so you can stare at people all the way to princes street and down the royal mile, kind of creepy.

But i would go to Camera Obscura again.. go this place, its right beside the top of Edinburgh castle.. go!

adios boys x x x

Our house is a very very very fine house...

i like that song quite a bit. you know the one, ''our house is a very very very fine house, with 2 cats in the yard... '' by Crosby Stills Nash and Young.
Its much better than that other our house song that goes like 'out house, in the middle of the street, our house'' that one really gets on my nerves
.
Had an AMAZING weekend.. me and my friend road tripped to Inveraray, Oban, Armaddy, Caddelton, The Stables, Seil Island and Easdale Island.
The weather was so sunny and we did so much, kayaking, walking, going on boats, more walking, climbing. i think i went over the top with exercise.

If a tree falls and no one is around to see it happen, does the tree make a noise when it hits the ground? No one would be around to know.

whenever you are at a crossroads in life, just ask yourself; would you risk it for a chocolate biscuit?

bon voyage x x x
