Even though I do not live in USA I am shocked to realise that the underrated pumpkin is is short supply . the-great-pumpkin-shortage-limits-supply-in-northeast
I know that I am now seen as a "adult" in society but surely you can't blame me for loving the whole pumpkin carving and halloween outfit. Buying a single pumpkin for double their usual price? Would you? I probably would if it was the type of pumpkins American people get, our pumpkins are usually small and not as grand.
In other environmenty news I can't believe there is another hurricane for America already. The hurricane could become a threat for the island at the weekend although it has only just made it into cateorgy one storm with winds of 75mps.

Toodless for now

What What?
I know that most people are not that fussed with the trial itself, and I don't even have a actually opinion on it but I find the actual live coverage of such a trial.... so interesting. I have obviously never watched or been part of a court trial so I suppose curiousity is getting the better of me, but its similar to watching a soap (even though that might be a bad example)
I have also started back to uni. If someone said to me five months ago that I would be in university doing my second year of my degree I would go "pff" and laugh. I am just happy in general that I get to go back to university and gain some sort of normal life style back, even though I can't join in on social outings (although I am more suited to living the "sitting in" life now)
I haven't been doing much else other than getting organised for university. I am looking forward to my three year anniverarsy with my boyfriend because it means a nice meal out, which we haven't done in a while.
I sadly think that Belfast have lost out on the sunny weather today as it has been raining for most of the afternoon. Although I secretly wouldn't mind cold weather to come along, as i love snuggling down and wearing scarfs, mittens and winter coats.
In other news Rihanna has been visiting Belfast and did a new video in Bangor. I like her music, but I do not worship celebrities or really follow any specific celebrities as they are just normal people, no different to me or you. Anyway everyone went mad over her and was following her whilst she was filming the music video.
Sorry for the boring writing but sky news live coverage is taking all my attention today on the trial. At the minute a company spokesperson for medical equipment is being asked questions. This is probably the major "people" evidence to show Dr Murray could be done for neglect as he should not have been using this type of equipment for long term mointoring of MJ.
Toodles for now, hopefully next time I blog I will have my new Vaio lappy set up.

Social Sites
For as long as I can remember people have been part of some sort of social site whether it be Bebo (back in the old days) or Facebook, even Google has taken to entering the frenzy competitive world of social networking sites with their take on it called "Google+"
Lately though, behind closed doors most owners of networking sites have been plotting, planning, developing and slowly releasing to the internet world their new versions and updated programmes of their services.
new-facebook-timeline-rock-the-week
Facebook has been in the news twice this week alone and they havent even really begun to churn out their new changes to a less than pleased audience. Yes the service is free, yes we are not obliged to use Facebook and someone was quoted saying "the amount of users that use facebook means its hard that everyone is happy with new decisions" But is facebook taking it too far? Why change a good thing?
They have a long list of bad decisions from facebook chat that reguarly stops working, to a new mini news feed within the orginal newsfeed. That's not the only thing that Facebook change, they constantly update their security settings, without notifying people. In my opinion this is the worst thing about having a account on facebook, I have to check my security settings every week incase they have updated and therefore changed my personal customized settings to allow high privacy on my account.
I am not a user of Google+ so I cannot comment on their site nor how it works but I hope soon that Facebook will eventually stop changing their layout and realise that most people, since we are mammals DON'T like change.
Can you tell I am annoyed by the new layout? Probably since it seems I victimised Facebook alone, but I am not a user of any other networking site.
Goodbye, from a irritated user

Money Madness
Someone should stop me. Get me a huge sign that alerts everyone that I have a card that has money on it and that I am willing to use it without properly thinking. Sirens should sound when I enter a shop because it's like a drug. I go into this trance like state and shopping makes me feel this high that I only seem to experience when I am shopping. It does worry me.
I actually don't even look at prices, THAT in itself speaks volumes. If I like it, especially clothes I will pick it up, try it on (sometimes I dont even do that) and then go to the till if I am a happy chappy. So I have started a new tact THINK BEFORE YOU BUY. So far it is sort of working. Sort of being the emphasised word.
Lately I have been good and only spent money on a new hair cut, which was neccessary because my hair has been growing for 5 months without me touching it. Then I got Garnier BB cream which is getting greattttt ratings for £8 in Boots. I then had to get hair spray (travel size before u ask!) which was a essential because no one has hair spray in my house. I did do well in PC world though. I could have got a new laptop but I said "no no i will go home and think about it" I am still unsure about a new laptop but its more of a santa christmas present but there is a sale at the moment.
Annyyyway I am getting better, I merely look now and think "no no you don't REALLYY need it" and quickly exit the shop before my brain can do this weird one to one conversation that goes like this:
"Oh look at that tshirt.... look for our size"
"Maybe we dont need it tho"
"Of course we need it... look our size is there. get it"
"No no i think we shudnt do that. we have a similar one at home"
"Similar! not the same"
"No i disagree"
"Ignore... go on you would look nice in that Jane"
"Yess i would wouldnt i?"
That my friend is where my madness comes from. I might become one of those cat ladies who have thousands of cats and have photos with me throwing money in the air or something. Goodness I hope not!
Anyway it is worrying that my brain is capable of having that sort of conversation without me being able to do much about it (I kid....)
I am currently still loving life, who wouldn't? I don't see anything wrong with anything in my life and to be honest I am pretty grateful at the current state of it.
I can't wait until the 5th of October though. I am celebrating my three years with my boyfriend. He doesnt get the hint when i leave him in the supermarket with the trolley and no way of getting home, but alas he has stuck around (i joke again!) I seriously can't wait we are going to this hotel and im super duper excited *claps like a seal* There is the link below and its the victorian type of room not the more modern one. I shall take photos and pretend I actually own the suite. Ekkk! Merchant Deluxe Suite Choices
I don't think I have much else to tell you, for as i said before I dont do much par from friends, uni and seeing my boyfriend and obviously my family.
Oh i have big news for my friend Emma. She has took the hugeeee step of going to Spain to do her teaching for a year. Sooo brave, I'm such a home bird but I am proud of her! Maybe she will never read this, who knows.
..... *picks up her fallen £100 notes off the floor and recounts them*
I joke!

Ze Apologies
Ah my little friend, I have neglected you badly this past while but fear not *stands tall* I have returned. Somewhat different, *strikes a pose* but alas you are more interested in hearing my recent stories, like a A list celeb that I am.I am afraid I don't bring much gossip. I know i know, boring Jane. It is irritating to be this boring. Firstly I want to say that I am back at uni for my second year. I am super organised like always, I got my stationery today (my inner...actually just general geek like self loves stationery) and then I went and got my FIRST HAIR CUT since my hair has started to grow back.
Ah so exciting. I got it tapered around my ears and all the same length due to it needing to grow for a while at the same pace. I have decided to keep my denial about my curly hair at the back of my head and got that cut into, i love having a tapered back and short pixie like hair. Who wouldn't? Its fab for beating late mornings.
I am also down to FOUR steroids every other day, which i am very grateful for. My skin doesn't itch but I think that is due to me having E45 Oil baths every day. I can't praise this product enough, it is actually my life saver!!! I popped a wee link about the product below because its a must have product even for skin that you can't be bothered moisturing.
More info on E45 Bath Oil
I am getting supppppeerrr dupppeerr excited about Halloween, you can feel it in the air now, that crisp dark evening when you can sense people lighting their fires and snuggling down to get some warmth. I have even started having a nightly hot chocolate, I am that cool.I got a new phone, which I have blogger on but its awfully difficult to type on. Its the samsung Galaxy S2, but alas I shall continue to try to use the touch screen - its more the texting that it seems to take a fit with, since I tend to type fast.
Right time for my second post on my lastest buys and maybe other news that my little brain might have forgot. As the image said, I did have a cookie for you... but i ate it. Opps *wipes crumb from whiskers*

It's getting cold
Some sad news before good news: Today my hamster, Oreo died. She had another stroke so I sat with her and cuddled her until she passed away. She wasn't in much pain, she even snuggled into my arm and closed her eyes to go a sleep. Once she had passed away I put her in a pink box, which i secured with ribbon and buried her in my back garden. I do miss her, keep going in to chat to her and realising she is gone. She will be my last hamster, best and last.
Brrr! I seem to be the only one that is cold these days. thank goodness for me buying that over size scarf in River Island, both soft and warm. I swear I dont want to go to my winter wonderland wardrobe but i dont think i have much choice now.
Im also trying not to itch my eyebrows because my skin is itchy, as once again they seem to be hanging on for dear life. I cant believe its been four days since I lasted posted. Here is a round up of the events of my life (that i havent already mentioned)
- Slide robe man came out to measure my new wardrobe for when i move out (obvs the wardrobe will be in my new house)
- I passed my uni exams with flying colours. No need to re-sit them. I got 50 in accounting (only needed 40) and 71 overall in FOM. I start back to uni next week
- My bio chemistry tests are at their best after a check up clinic appointment today at the hospital
- I was able to get my car fixed by kwikfit after the wheel bearing severly needed fixed. Felt like a independent woman.
- Eventually caught up on all the sleep i haven't been getting and feel loads better for it.
I think that is all, nothing too exciting has been happening in my life but I don't want to neglect my blog by not posting, hopefully I'm not boring you. Can't wait until tommorrow, going to have a lazy day since i have had two different hospital appointments this week alone which means early mornings... early mornings are not good!
Night my bloggy woggy.x
