Having a bit of a weird day today. Last night i realised i’d lost £20 from my bag, i was annoyed to say the least but little did i know that it was actually an omen for things to come.

I got up and out of bed and checked to see if there was any post for me and there was. One letter. It was from my bank… I could tell straight away because of the envelope. So, I’m thinking “hmmmm i dont need to open this, it’s probably jsut a statement and my bank should still be okay right?” So i get back into and have every intention of going back to sleep. But somethings nagging me, it keeps nagging me, keeps pulling at me preventing from returning to blissful sleep… I get up and think what is it thats bothering me so much? I think to myself “Hmmm must be that letter, my curioustiy must be getting the better of me…” I decide to open it. Lo and behold! The nagging feeling I had actually had some merit behind me.

“….You bank account has gone over the agreed overdraft limit and we will therefore be charging you a reserve fee…”

What?!

I panicked. I had lent my card to my mum to draw some money for bills a week prior, maybe she withdrew more than i told her to? So i check my account online.

“…15/9/08 withdrawl £50 Tesco…”

No! Perfectly legitimate… hmm… But whats this?

“…23/9/08 withdrawl £50 Lloyds TSB 11.21…”

Ehhhh? Not legitimate at all!

I had my card safely in my purse on that day and time which was next to my bed as i lay cosily wrapped up in blankets dreaming some sweet blissful dream.

It clicks. While i was laying in bed wrapped up in blankets dreaming sweet blissful dreams some low life had cloned my card and was stealing my cash!

I called the bank and they cancelled my card and pin and are sending me a “dispute form”…

huuuu… ;_;

What bad like eh? I won’t even go into the bike incident… still too painful to talk about!

Oh and i watched that lame show and boy was it laaaaaaaaaaaame. The banter amonsgt the host and guests was… well… akward and clumsy. There was no guide as to how difficult each wall was (unlike the korean ver.) . There were no guides lines (unlike the Korean ver.) Contestants were given points even when the failed to pass the walls! Wth? doesnt that render the scoring system pointless? Oh andthe suits i mentioned in the first post? They were worst than i imagined. Just seriously horrendous. In my opinion? this show needs to be scrapped by the BBC. Our T.V. liscences can be used towards much better programmes like educational, informative and entertainment.

In most cases i would’ve told you all to try and check it out yourselves, but seriously, don’t waste your lives on that. I wasted a good half hour of mine to save you a half hour of yours. Oh don’t watch the “Samanda” barbie videoes either. I have wasted  3.13 minutes of my life yet again to tell you its pants. Don’t ask how i ended up watching it. I just did. Its the biggest load of over vocodered “music” i have ever heard. You should only watch these two things if you love things that are amazing craptacular!

Much love

So, today is International Peace Day. A day were hopefully peace should reign in all countries.

The word “Peace” as defined by Chambers :

[Peace] noun 1 freedom from or absence of war. 2 a treaty or agreement ending a war. 3 freedom from or absence of noise, disturbance or disorder; quietness or calm. 4 freedom from mental agitation; serenity • peace of mind.

Hopefully everybody in the world is experiencing at least one of these things.

Now, to my title. I’m gutted that i forgot about International Talk Like A Pirate Day. It falls on the 19th September every year but yet I still managed to forget. -_-; For all thosewho want to find out more and maybe celebrate next year, heres a link.

Can I celebrate late? Is that wrong?   ^^;

I managed to catch that Korean rip off show called “Hole in the wall”…. A little uninspired don’t you think?   -_-;  BUT I’ll be writing about that in the next post.

I have food to go eat now.

Peace Out on International Peace Day!

I’ve been watching korean shows for a while now and I think they’re really funny
I really enjoy the variety shows. One that a I watched recently was a  show called “Jiwhaza”. The intro game to this show was called “Even if the sky falls, there is a hole to rise out of” which basically involved the celebrity contestants having to perform different poses to pass through a foam wall heading their way.
**Google Jiwhaza if you want to know more**

 Imagine my shock while surfing through the bbc iplayer when i discovered that England has now decided to emulate this game!

Now, I’m not one to judge things before i watch them but in all honesty, it doesn’t look good. I’ve only watched the first five minutes but it looks pretty horrendous.

 In the original, the losing team of the previous week would have to wear funny costumes as punishment. But in the English version, it seems that everybody has to wear a stupid costume. I.E. They all have to wear these shiny silver lycra full body suits. It’s not a good look and to be honest, kinda embarrassing and with the guys, i guess your not really sure where to look! It’s kinda funny watchin the guy’s be all embarassed and covering their crotches with their hands though. Lol.

 When i manage to watch the rest of it I’ll either edit or post fresh.

Much Love
