TEXTS

This morning I started scrolling through my texts from Jordan. I decided immediately that they needed to be written down because they are hilarious and I would be very annoyed if they got lost or deleted. They bring back many fun memories so obviously the best place to put them would be on my blog. So please don’t be freaked out because I find them very comforting to read and would like to read them again in the future.

Note, Jordan’s spelling is atrocious. So I typed it out the way she did in the text.

These texts start from late 2009.

New Moon

“New moon next week?....Yea, ill brave ur crazy taylor obsession....akakaka. The general boy obsession going on, but No one will be obsesed with robert patinson.”

The day we wrapped up the boys’ football (because they kept playing with it in the Lecture theatre)

“Ahh kerri told john what we did, and he says that balls worth £25. And theyre gna be angry”

On Glee

“Hahaha. I noticed the asian boy and his dancing and thought of u”

“Im gonna regret this so much, but mike chang is kinda cute”

“Kurt talked about the American Dream! Ewww”

“In lisburn and I just saw a boy who looked like mike chang!”

“Im only just watching glee, and lol at asian camp?!”

Noting my Asian-loving days:

“Why oh why am I watching the asian music awards???”

“We were just in newry and saw like 3 asian guys. Are super junior on tour here?!”

“Im watching south korea play football. They all look identical claudia!”

“I’m in Lisburn and there’s an adorable asian child in the que. I thought of you. lol.”

Joel

Jordan: Lol I walk into my halls at uni and looked in the kitchen and the first thing i saw was an asian boy! Thought of u immediately.

Me: LOL LUCKY YOU. is he in your halls?

Jordan: Yes! He’s from Singapore and really nice.

Me: Awesome what’s his name?

Jordan: Joel but not pronounced like that. He’s doing medicine and he’s also kind of cute.

On Twitter and The Great Gatsby

Jordan: “Is dr tj eckleburg following u on twitter 2?!”

Me: “turns out it’s Matthew Quinn!!”

On Moths

“Ahh there was just a massive moth at my window! Not big enough 2 be wearing a suit but still pretty big”

“Hey mothmath (mothmath??) just visited me, he says hes heading out to your house now.”

On Driving

“Claudia I had a dream last night that you passed your driving test! Yay. But u told me that you’d done it on the internet, that sounds a bit illegal. Ha.”

Rocket Power

Me: Rocket Power!! With Otto, Reymundo, Tito and silly other names!

Jordan: Lol. Good job on finding that claudbag!

On Clothes

Let me explain, in late August Jordan and I went shopping. Extreme shopping. I picked out lots of new clothes for her to wear to uni. It certainly was a successful day because we bought 2 blouses, 2 jumpers, DKNY jeans, 2 t-shirts and later a new jacket and trainers.

Jordan: I can’t decide what to wear claudia!!”

Me: Hahaha you sound like me - cos you have new clothes to choose from?

Jordan: Yes. lol. And I’m not sure what matches what...”

Me: What are you choosing from?

Jordan: Think I’m going to wear the blue stripy top from river island. But what goes with that? I need another layer

Me: Isn’t that the one I ranted that you needed an orange cardigan...lol

Texts which few will understand:

“Lol. U gotta be adventurous claudia. Dishy steven!”

“AHHH I was just uploading pictures on facebook and I accidently put the happy 10th birthday Jimmy one up!! I think I got it removed b4 it was seen tho.”

“Aww i miss the days when weekends ment futurecup lol.”

“Im at fusin AND CASPER IS HERE!”

“Lol! It’s because of their poorly designed menus.”

“Open your gates Claudbag.”

Me: Jared went into the container and first thing he saw was TAMPON MAN!! :O

Jordan: LOL!!

Facebook Hack and other randoms

One day at Emma’s house we all hacked Jordan’s Facebook after she accidentally told us her password was the same for everything. 

Jordan: I’m a muslim, inbred, superjunior loving, hemaphrodite, in a complicated relationship and it’s my birthday. Also why is there a swearword in there, thats just unnecessary!

Me: My only input in this hack was suju! What swearword??

Jordan: It says ‘religious views - muslim shite.’ Or is that like a type of muslim?

Jordan: Do yous want me to bring some ice cream?

Me: Yes sexy bbz. When you get here I can’t wait to tickle your bum. 

“Hey Sexy”  (Nice one James)

“Coming now my girlfriend”

Other amazing texts:

“U know what I say? OFF WITH THE HEAD”

“Im looking ur memories on bebo”

“I just caught myself singing along 2 hollys camprock cd. SINGING TO JOE JONAS. What have i become”

“Is Emma in the country?”

“Kk. Party animals!”

“Thanks for inviting me. I had great fun. Ive had sex bomb in my head all day.”

“Yearbook is fabulous claudia!”

“Big sexy laurence is on tv. I started to laugh thinking of your mother. There’s also an asian man who looks like a woman on the show. It’s like your family made it.”

“Book beans. Was just wondering.”

“Make sure yous miss my presense.”

Don’t worry Jordan, we do! We all miss you like crazy! ♥

AWESOME LIST 2011 ⌗1

Hello! I shall continue this meme, which....actually,I don’t remember what or where the list was.

Today, it’s THINGS THAT TURN ME ON!
Well, that’s what the title is anyway. It’s not really.

In case you didn’t know. I’m very very VERY fussy. Which is probably why I’ve spent most of my life single. I’m hoping when I get to university I will find some fish that are different than the inbred ones in the Mourne Fish Tank.

But who knows!

As Kimya Dawson says, “If I’m a spinster for the rest of my life, my arms will keep me warm on cold and lonely nights.”

I have renamed this as the AWESOME list now.

That's not saying that I hope I wouldn't want meet the guys listed below in a dark alleyway late at night! Heh heh heh heh.

I shall do this piece in three parts, so here is the first bit. Exciting stuff!

They are not in order, you perv.

Rupert Grint

Who is he? British Actor

Best known for: Playing Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter films.

Why he is so awesome: What is so interesting in the Harry Potter films is that Harry doesn’t become fanciable. Well not in my opinion anyway.

However, Ron, yes the little ginger kid who is just the loser friend, suddenly does!

By the Order of the Phoenix he’s instantaneously become buff! Not that anyone is complaining about that.

What happened Dan, what happened.

WEASLEY IS OUR KING.

T.O.P (Choi Seung Hyun)

Who is he? Member of Korean group Big Bang

Best known for: Rapping, solo work, badass.

Why he is so awesome: Far too many times have I mentioned T.O.P in this blog. It’s not normal how cool I think he is. Mary-Jane called him sleazy the other day, but I call him SEXAY.

Matt Lanter

Who is he? American Actor

Best known for: Playing the role of Liam in 90210

Why he is so awesome: Let’s face it, Matt Lanter is one hot lad. Matt plays Liam, 90210’s badboy! Ironically (apart from his erratic bursts of anger) Liam is one of most normal characters of the show, who avoids trouble the best. He plays his part really well, and often leaves me laughing. The show is on E4 at the moment and honestly, I wouldn’t advise people to watch it.

Unless it’s for eye-candy like Matt Lanter. ;)

Bi Rain

Who is he? Korean singer, songwriter, actor and stylist

Best known for: Over in Korea: his singing, over here: he won best Badass as ‘Raizo’ in Ninja Assassin at the MTV Movie Awards in 2010.

Why he is so awesome: What makes Rain so awesome is his determination to work so hard. He started out as a singer and swiftly moved into Korean dramas and then into the Hollywood screens. Go him! Can’t wait to see the sequel of Ninja Assassin and I am hopeful he will get more attention in the US. Good luck Rain!

Glee Boys

Who are they? Okay, I’ll be fussy here: Kevin McHale, Mark Salling, Chord Overstreet and Harry Shum Jr.

Best known for: Playing the male characters in E4’s showstopping show Glee

Why they are so awesome: No offense to Chris Coffler because he seems like a pretty cool person. Cory is the least interesting on the show.

Kevin McHale- Who knew little Artie could be so good looking in real life? I am impressed.

Mark Salling- Gotta admit, Puck is one of my favourites on the show. His lines have so many innuendos it makes me giggle.

Chord Overstreet- Don’t know much about Sam yet, but I am beginning to like him. Blondes aren’t my type but he’s lovely.

Harry Shum Jr- I am very impressed with Mike ‘other Asian’ Chang this season! He is brilliant and very comical! Honestly last series I thought he was a hopeless actor and not much of a dancer, now we all know him better because he has a larger part has made me really like him! His duet with Tina was brilliant- loved it!

Alexander Rybak

Who is he? Norwegian Solo singer

Best known for: Winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2009

Why he is so awesome: I love Alexander’s album “Fairytales” one of them CDs that you could listen to the whole way through. If you want to see the real side of Alexander, watch “OAH” It’s an eye-opener! Hilarious.

Tune in next time...

OH NO!

☹

OH NO!

My fantastic Glee outing plan is completely flawed! Emma can’t go. Kerri won’t go. No-one else is going. I haven’t heard anything from James or the rest. (Where is everybody today?!) I spent all night last night getting excited/worried about it and then couldn’t sleep: I was worried in case I didn’t get tickets. Didn’t get over to sleep to around 3am. :(

Anyway I’m super annoyed because mother said I was allowed, now that nobody else is going I can’t Pfft, does she know I’m going to be 18 by then? Aragh I don’t want to be pampered and mollycoddled, I wanna see this show!! Even if that means going on my own!

Don’t get me started on how I haven’t seen Harry Potter yet either. ☠

☺

I can’t feel happy about anything right now because I’m just so pissed off. I’ll attempt at some good news anyway. Do you remember in my Ladyboys! entry I spoke of a smell on stage that I just couldn’t resist? Well I do believe I have found it in a perfume: Vera Wang Princess!

It’s the closest smell to it as possible, all in a little perfume. See, we were out shopping that day and Jared and I went into House of Fraser so I could look around. I tested some perfumes including this one so perhaps the smell reminded me of that whole day, now I adore it. If it’s not too late, I think I’ll ask it for Christmas.

Before bed last night I watched episode 14 of IRIS. Gosh, it’s amazing. And the episode felt really long, in a good way. So that set me hyper and I couldn’t sleep. And T.O.P made an appearance too, but I can’t give anything away because Emma will go crazy if I reveal spoilers to her. Can you read this Emma? Oh YEAH, he kisses Hacker Girl- such a lucky girl!!

More good news: they are making an IRIS film! And Prefect Disco sorted too- I'm going as Boo from Monsters Inc.

UCAs statement is hopefully being sent away by the end of the week. I’ll keep you posted.

Does Claudia’s UCAs get sent away??

Will Claudia get to see Glee Live, her man of her dreams, Harry Shum Jr??

Is Vera Wang Perfume expensive??

Will she get to see Harry Potter before it’s too late??

Does she reveal any more spoilers to Emma??

And will T.O.P get to meet the girl of his dreams: Claudia?? (I hope so, heh!)

That’s all folks!

Tune in next time, for another post from CLAUDIA’S BLOG! *theme music*

GLEE! LIVE IN CONCERT

Okay, I’m about to go off on a tangent. But this, THIS is an important thing to blog about!

Glee, yes GLEE. is coming to DUBLIN. Dublin. This could be the only change I have at seeing these guys live, so I neeeeeed tickets!

It’s on Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd July in the O2 Dublin so the perfect reason to go is to unwind after our traumatic A-Level exams experience. Tickets go on sale next Friday.

All the cast members who are going to be there:

Lea Michele (Rachel)

Cory Monteith (Finn)

Amber Riley (Mercedes)

Chris Colfer (Kurt)

Kevin McHale (Artie)

Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina)

Mark Salling (Puck) - ooohh!

Dianna Agron (Quinn)

Naya Rivera (Santana) and Heather Morris (Brittany)

Harry Shum, Jr (Mike) - //flails

Chord Overstreet (Sam)

Darren Criss (Blaine)

Yup, just bolding my favourites there. :D

Okay guys, who’s coming with me?

Note to self: ask Mum if it’s okay to go.

OVER.

Well that’s it.

My exams are over.
Ended this morning with English Literature.

I would be all “WOOP exams over, summer begins!!” etc.


But really, I do not care less.

Yeah, it’s great being stress free over the three exams I did have, but now I have very little to do. I thrive on being constantly productive throughout the day, (flip that sounds weird) so now it’s going to take some adjusting until I manage to slow everything I do over the long, hot probably cold, summer days.
I will update with my progress soon.

Tonight, I’m going to the kids’ school play. They are the ones I child-mind randomly throughout the year. They are well cool, they call me Santa Claudz. Haha. The school are doing Mary Poppins. Last time they put on a play Jared was in it, and the time before I was. *shudder* So it should be alright.

Oh yeah, English earlier. Well it was grand I suppose. No, no it wasn’t. I had to compare and contrast my two least favourite poems and for the Great Gatsby question I recall writing about Twilight. So mmhmm, it was bad. :(
Sure we’ll see how it goes on result day, I wonder when we get our results? We weren’t given a date.

sexy beast.

I’ve turned into a more masculine Claudia (also sounds very weird, maybe doesn’t make sense) and have started to watch the World Cup! I like seeing what’s all the fuss about instead of sitting in the corner giving off about it. I’ve already done this with Big Brother a few years ago (hooked for one series, never watched it again), Scrubs, Desperate Housewives, 90210, Ugly Betty, Eurovision (love it!), and Glee. Some of these trial episodes turned out a disaster but others I went crazy over.

But anywho, I never thought I’d say it: but I enjoy the football! The rest of my family hates it, but it’s actually really good when you get into it. It’s quite satisfying roaring ridiculously at a television screen. And I’d never thought I’d say THIS, but footballers are rather attractive! I’m supporting England and South Korea. Woohoo!

But worry not, after this is over, I won’t watch football until the next World Cup.

HALF TERM

Ello.

Hooray! It's half term. That means I have 5 days off including the weekend! (thumbs up)

But I also have 3 essays, one coursework updating, 6 art sketches and Great Gatsby annotating due for when I get back. (thumbs down)

Paul's Missionary Journey 3 Essay

Pliny and Trajan Essay part B

Compare and Contrast English Essay

Great Gatsby Annotating

I.C.T Coursework Updating

6 Art Sketches

Hmm I need to work more this evening. But today is FUNFRIDAY ONCE AGAIN.

Emma invited Kerri and I down for my minor late Birthday Party. Emma's made me a present and Kerri has brought something so I'm excited. ^_^

Yesterday was the Careers Day at school. We got out a period to walk round some stalls with people telling us more about universities and crap. It was very good actually. I think I know what I want to do in uni. I want to go to University of Ulster in Belfast to do an Art and Design course. I know it's silly to do art but I might as well do something I like. The woman suggested that I should do a foundation year to experiment with different art, then the year after I can choose what route to go down- like that could be fine art, textiles etc.

I have been to that University before at a gallery of student's work last June. Wow it was amazing. It looked like so much fun, and the student life looked class. But I still have another year of school- so I'll put it to the back of my mind for a while.

Creepy.

I'm currently drinking tea and eating a yoghurt. One of my favourite things to do, even though Kerri once said it was gross that I was mixing a hot drink with something cold.

Yay, I know what I want to do for my art exam. I don't think I said my theme was PROGRESS. Which really sucks. But I know what I'm going to do: The Progress of TECHNOLOGY! Then I can draw iPods, Computers and YOUTUBE STARS. = Charlieissocoollike :D

Haha I know how to get my own interests squeezed into my art. ;) Hmm.. I wonder how I could get Super Junior in there too...

By the way, I have been converted to a GLEEK. I can't wait til next Monday.

FEBRUARY'S COOL LIST

Okay, time for an update on the coolness and admiration of certain men and women that have caught my eye recently.

1. MIKE CHANG

If you are a GLEE fan, you might recognise this face. This guy is a background character who has appeared in every episode I've seen in the last couple weeks. Nobody seems to know his name but is referred to as the "Other Asian." I must admit, he is one of the reasons I enjoy the show so much. After a bit of research, I have discovered his real name is Harry Shum Jr. and he has Twitter! (I can proudly say I follow him.) He can DANCE, speak Spanish and Chinese.

2. GARY MAI

This is just an ordinary guy from Brooklyn I started talking to on the ol' faithful A.C.T. I added him on Facebook for handy banter. As I flicked through his album photos I don't think I laughed as hard in my life! Yeah I'm sad. But his expressions are legendary. He has that natural funniness that is so so hard to find. I would tell you to look at the photos yourself to understand what I mean, but that would be a bit weird. Hm a cool list is weird enough actually.

3. CHARLIE MCDONNELL

Mr Coollike is still here.. I think he has moved down one? I don't know, I need to check. The reason I still adore him is the approaching London trip at Easter gives me a higher change of meeting him. haha. Plus, in his latest video he is wearing Jimmy Glasses. An automatic win in my eyes.

4. CONRAD CHOW

OOH poor Conrad has dropped from number 1 to number 4. He's still pretty cool, but he needs to put some more Youtube videos up to add to his coolness.
