Let's see, where do I start? My grandpa wants me to sit up straight. He wants me to learn how to type properly, using all fingers and not stare a the keyboard. My grandpa wants me to Speak like a proper young lady, instead of the atrotious way of The freck with you, I'mma pop a cap in yo ass, fo shizz' that I have adopted in light-hearted situations. He wants me to be brought up in a world where English is straightforward, stern, stiff and very British. My grandpa is the funniest man I've ever met. My grandpa often surprises me with popquizzes direct from the thesaurus. My grandpa is the only person who doesn't make fun when I speak--and type--formally.My grandpa also makes kickass amazing pineapple tarts. I love my grandpa. He is absolutely amazing.

Eep, I love the festive season. I was being all frowns as I checked our pantry for baking supplies and found that most of them were either expired or just way beyond usage. My mum's bakes in awesome unimaginable ways, but I swear when she isn't baking, she is awfully neglectful. So we went to our local baking stoooore... And I had to suppress the urge to squeal as I stepped inside. How could I not? Everything smelled perfect, like freshly baked blueberry muffins and essence of vanilla.
In fact, I think I even greeted the store (yes, the store) with an airy, "Helloooo, store!" The owner just stared at me O__o

I don't slouch. I wish I could. But even if I could, I don't think I'd be able to since I've forgotten how (thanks, grandpa). But today... on the way home, when mum was buying eggs and I was listening to 3Oh!3's Starstruck in the car, I kept sliding further and further down the seat as flashes of old memories (mostly of The Evil Overlord) just plunged and kicked its douchy way into my mind. Honeslt,y if it weren't for Daniel Beddingfield, I'd be a bright orange curl on the floor of my mum's Swift.
Daniel Beddingfield. I was so obsessed with him when I was like... 8? 10? I forget. But seriusly, I loved him to pieces. I can't remember fangirling anyone before him. Unless you count Jeremy Sumpter from Peter Pan.
Oh good God, Peter Pan...
