shopping online is stressful..

So I thought I would try shopping online for once.
But I'm stuck because I don't know what size to get. I KNOW it has the weird measurements by the side-I'm NOT measuring myself. That is ridiculously long. 
So anyway, I guess I'll just order all the wrong sizes and hate life forever.
Goodbye.

Superdrug confuse me..

I am becoming slightly obsessed with the Superdrug card. Infact nowadays I'll purposefully buy something just to get points on my card. That can't be right..can it?
So you must understand that when I spent a tenner in superdrug today and only recieved NINE points, I was pretty pissed off.

9 POINTS?! It should be more like frigging 90! What is happening to the world.
Yes I know, you're obviously thinking my trip to superdrug could not possibly get any worse..it did. Not only did I receive practically NO POINTS, I also bought the wrong eyeshadow palette.
The most annoying thing is that i spend FIFTEEN MINUTES picking out the eyeshadow colours. And there I was, perfectly smug standing there with my nice eyeshadow set, when I thought 'yeah let's pick the set right at the back, so I can get one that no one has used.' Because that was really clever. 
So yeah, I picked up the wrong one. Life hates me.
+ you cant take back makeup.
+ I got no points on my card.
+ I wasted a tenner.
Oh the joy that is my life.

Why does hair go curly in the rain?


Yes, this is my blog title. And yes, it is possibly one of the many unanswered questions this universe is faced with. Why does hair go curly in the rain? And don't start with your scientific shabang, because I DON'T CARE. The simple fact of the matter is, it shouldn't happen. Ever.
Do you know what the most annoying thing is? I never straighten my hair. It's always curly. So on the off chance that I decide to have straight hair, for example a wedding, I'm going to want it to stay straight! But oh no, Zues (or whoever) must hate me. Because the only days I straighten my hair, it rains. I'm not joking. I apologise to England in advance the days I straighten my hair, because it will rain.
You're probably shouting at your computer screens right now, mumbling on about how I shouldn't be interfering with God's path-having curly hair is the way the world was supposed to be, but whatever. SOME DAYS I JUST WANT STRAIGHT HAIR OKAY?
You'd think with the amount of hair products out in this current market, they'd have atleast one that stops rain from screwing with your hair. Why are they wasting time with all these gels and conditioners and actually make something worth my time and money! And stop-yes I know what you're doing. Stop getting ready to fire links at me with the 'miracle solutions' you have to save my hair from this unsaveable situation. Because what you don't know is that I've tried them all. So leave my page.
I'd just like to add, I don't hate rain. In fact, I quite like rain. In a 'the notebook', kissing in the rain kind of way. I just don't particularly like rain whilst I have straight hair.
Goodbye !

British Traits

10 British Traits (that supposedly only Britain do.) 

1. Talking about the weather.
Of course when you watch the old fashioned movies they say in a posh english voice while having scones and crumpets, 'Well have you seen the weather today, absolutely ghastly.' Apart from that being about 50 years ago, doesn't everyone anywhere talk about the weather? If I went to France and the weather was thunderstorms and rain, of course people are going to talk about it. The weather in England is so completely random, that we have no choice but to mention it. 

2. Great at queueing.
Shouldn't this be bad at queueing? I don't think I've ever been happy in a que. Have you seen the que at Natwest bank? There's two people at the cashiers and about twenty in the que. And I can quite happily say that none of us were feeling particularly mighty and proud.

3. Sarcasm
We are pretty good at being sarcastic aren't we. The worst is when people don't get sarcasm. The other day my friend asked if we should meet outside Westfields or inside. Sarcastically I said, 'Oh yes let's meet inside, that's a great idea.' It took me about 3 hours to find her. Not fun.

4. Watching soaps.
I'm sorry, but when the weather is as crap as it is, what are we supposed to do? Go out and dance in the rain? No, we're going to sit inside with a cup of coffee and watch a soap. 

5. Getting drunk.
Now this is just getting ridiculous. I think you'll find that statistically the United Kingdom come 17th in the amount of alcohol we consume. Leave us be and go talk to Uganda, they're 2nd.

6. A love of bargains.
Who doesn't love bargains? If I see an alright dress for £300 and then a much nicer dress for £20, which one am I going to choose? Yeah, didn't think so.

7. Wanting a good tan.
Why the hell would we not want a good tan? We never get any sun, so when we do, I'm going to go out and get a tan! Who wants to be pasty and ill looking? This is just unfair. 

8. Texting instead of calling.
Let's face it, texting is just so much better. I for one, hate calling people, you have an awkward five minute conversation and then have to find some reason as to why you have to hang up the phone. Whereas texting, you can just pretend you never saw it, or even better say you're phone's been switched off. Sue me if you think I'm wrong.

9. Leaving things to the last minute.
It's called procrastinating, and everyone does it. If I have an essay to write and the TV on, which one am I going to do? In fact, it's a part of your brain that tells you to do what makes you happy in the short term. We can't help it. Hence, why this should be a worldwide trait, not Britain taking the punch.

10. Love of cheap foreign holidays.
How could they even put this. Of course if we see the same holiday, one at £2000 and the other at £800, it's pretty damn shocking that we're going to pick the cheaper one. The telegraph, you are taking the piss.

So that's ten of the fifty British traits. I would have done all of them except I'm to busy watching soaps, looking for cheap holidays online, getting a tan in the garden, finding a cheap dress to wear to my friends party, having a glass of wine, and of course leaving my coursework to the last minute. Oh, and all of that was extremely sarcastic. I really am British, aren't I?
