Saw, 2004 Review

Saw PosterThis movie will hardly scare you and I promise the faint hearted can watch this while remaining in your seat, when it comes to scary movies this is not one to have your date jump in your arms, but if your dateless and just need a good movie with an interesting plot the very first saw movie is the movie for you.



I have to admit that I thought this move was an average thriller until the last five minutes, but those 5 minutes make you stop and say 'wow' all through the credits and you'll want to tell everyone how it ends even if most of friends are guaranteed to of seen it beforehand. The saw series will remain thriller/horror classics and your really missing out on a piece of history by not jumping on board.

Bad acting may be seen through out the movie, but its not what your thinking of by the end, the killer is great and the ending is explained so well with so few words? (You could guess I'm trying not to give it away.)

Saw makes you think about how much you value your own, because the victims in this movie really didn't value their own lives until they knew how long they had left. So if you don't mind watching a little bit of blood and watching games you know are one sided I would say grab some mates and start at the beginning of this soon to be classic series.

Constant improvement..

I always try and improve myself. Everyday infact.

I'm about to go for a run actually and probably end up in a full blown workout afterwards to make myself faster, stronger, better.

Just before I was practising my typing. How many kids do that on thier school holidays, but I couldn't get anywhere with this defacto keyboard. The I doesn't work properly and you have to bash it to get it to work and all the letter are tight enough anyway. They used to be so loose when I first got my laptop now I hate typing on it, it's terrible.

Biology, Lit and Maths exam's are freaking me out. I need to be perfect, its just the way I like to be. I always think why be average when I can be better? My friends and teachers always say there's nothing wrong with c, but why get a c when you can get an a or a b at least.

Another thing I already think is Uni's will only want the best so thats what I have to be..

So this is inside my mind, don't know why I posted it, just something I was thinking about I guess. :3

How to get a "scene" look without teasing your hair and wearing a lot of make-up. (For girls)

So this is mostly my everyday routine before school because my school's policy is wear you hair up and keep make-up to a minimum but I have found some ways to still be me and find some ways around this and the teachers haven't commented once on it.


Hair
Usually with my hair each day I tie it up because I usually have some sports things going on so I like to tie it up in the morning before I go instead of doing it at school. Also my fringe annoys me when I'm leaning over school work. It depends on how much time I have but I can either leave me side fringe out or grab comb and twist it a few time and pin it all straight back with booby pins. This gives it a more volume effect and I like doing it because I'm the only one that pins there hair back like this.


Don't worry this is just the first part of what I have to say about hair because I know your probably thinking what this has to do with scene.


Well not a lot of headbands look real scene but if you find one you really like just wear it. Scene is just a label not rule anyone should be following, but if you want to follow it a bandanna can help, especially in dark colours. Twist the bandanna until it make something like a headband and tie it around your head. This is just what I like to do because I don't like wearing it like a normal bandanna.


Make-up
So depending on how your strict your school is if you want to get away with the scene look you can use as much make-up as you want, especially eye make-up which would complete the effect but unfortunately my schools against eye liner, but there is a lot of make-up your school has no say in like fondation for example, even thought this isn't really just a scene girl thing every girl can use it. I personally don't because I get break out really easy and mine are usually underneath the skins which can be very painful so I find my skin is better when I don't use it, but this is a personal choice.
Mascara is another one I use every morning, teachers can't yell at you for having pretty eyelashes and last of  all I use a clear lip balm just to keep my lips healthy and apply it when I feel like it.


Oh and I almost forgot one of the greatest things ever invented and thats my under eye conceler, its great for early mornings after late night studying!


Also wear whatever jewelery you can get away with! I wear a lot of kandi braclets at school and people always complement them and I love it when they do because I make them myself and if theres ever anyone thats likes one a lot I can give it them.


Hope this helps, remember to bend the rules and just find ways around your rules or you could just face them head on and get the head council of your school to change them, pretty sure everybody would love you if you did and it would be better for you to accomplish something like that.


bye bye xx Hope this helps anyone, leave a comment

Maybelline Mascara- Volum' Express Falsies Review

So one of my friends first got me onto this mascara which I'm sure you've seen around, its called Falsies and two of my best friends use it. To be honest ages ago I hated it because its not the type of brush I would usually use because I like to use skinnier brushes with smaller bristles and also when I took out the brush the mascara just looked clumpy which turned me off it and made me hate it, but at lunch one day I was looking at my friends eye lashes and they looked thick and it really did look like she had more! So I decided to give it a go..



So the first thing I liked about it was it did make my eyelashes look nice especially if I pay a lot of attention to the outer eyelashes. Make sure you curl your eyelashes afterwards though for an even better effect.



This mascara can also last a fair amount of time but can be flaky if you need to rub your eyes. The thing I did love the most about this mascara though is that it doesn't end up in clumps on the inside of your eyes! Oh and its water proof, there's no other way to buy mascara then waterproof mascara!!

xx

updates xD

So I'm actually studying.. go me! This is probably a first for me..

Also my hair is dip dyed purple and pink at the moment but I really want to go back to blonde with a blue fringe even though I've only had the purple for like a week! I always get bored of my har colour really quickly sometimes I wish I was brunette again, but then  think well now I'm different and I like that.

Has anyone got any good hair websites or even just good scene websites? Would love it a lot, I hate the signing up to one and going to all the trouble and end up not being interested, its just too much work.

Thankyou :3 xx

Claes Oldenburg

I just want to present to you a favourite artist of mine. That being Swedish sculptor Claus Oldenburg. I've never really been good at making bio's so I thought I would let his inspirational artwork do the talking for me.










These are some of my favourites. Do a google search and find yours. Also if you have an artist that Oldenburg reminded you off send them to me I would love to take a look, or any amzing artist in general. I love all types of art!!

Follow your head or heart.

I've always had trouble with this one. Follow my head or follow your heart.

If your like me then following your heart gives you great chance of getting hurt and following your head is safe, not always easy and you can see yourself happy but your heart just isn't in it. I followed my heart and got extremly hurt each time. The one time I followed my head I didn't get what I wanted because my heart controls what I want, but I followed my head and you know what, my heart followed.

Just something I had to get of my mind and I don't have a facebook anymore so every annoying thought I have goes onto these blogs of mine, sorry for all the annoying status updates... whoops I mean blogs

The Truth about Rugrats? -The apparent internet truth

This made me so sad because I loved this show as kid and I also liked the movies, but I also found this interesting. If you loved Rugrats as well try not to be to sad, just think of it as interesting..

The babies in Rugrats don't exist and are products of Angelica's imagination because her mother ignores her and her relationship with her father is shallow and parasitic. In reality, Chuckie died along with his mother, which is why Chaz is such a nervous wreck. Tommy was a stillborn, which causes Stu to sit in the basement making toys for his son that never had a chance to live, and the DeVilles had an abortion. Angelica couldn't decide whether the unborn child would be male or female and thus simply invented the same character in her head twice with different genders.



Comment what you thought of this, personally I think this is made up, but have your own say below.

Keeping out acne..

I get acne, obviously so does everyone else my age, but I get the pimples which are underneath the skin and their probably some of the hardest to deal with so this is how you deal with all acne.

Now you probably think I'm going to try and sell you some miracle product, but no. Just some tips.

The first is wash your face three times a day. I say three because less and the dirt and oily will build up on your skin and anymore and the products will dry your skin out. When I say wash your face I just mean get rid of the dirt and oil not necessarily wash with water and cleanser. If you don't mind the water and cleanser then yes do that 2/3 times of the day, but if your like me and find it time consuming and annoying then read on.


The first thing you can use is facial wipes. I personally don't use them because they can be expensive and dry out. Also they only come in about 20 per a pack. This is why I don't use them all the time, but I do own them because if I'm going out and staying the night somewhere they can be really handy.


Now what I actually use is a face cleaner, the one I'm using at the moment is called FORMULA 10.0.6 SO TOTALLY CLEAN, CUCUMBER AND SEA KELP. The way these work is all you have to do is buy the product and cotton balls, squirt a little bit on the cotton ball and wipe all the dirt and oil of your face. You can also get a cream type paste that does this, but I think the liquids work a lot better.This is a good method to use because although the bottle's may cost an average of $15 you save money because they last a long time. I use this 2 day and acne cleanser in the shower is my third.


When you should do it is when you wake up, before you go to sleep and when you get home from school. If you don't go to school then in the middle of your waking hours. I say in the middle of your waking hours and not day because if you wake up at 10 it would be pointless doing it 12. Just get a pattern going and you will soon just slide into it and it will become apart of your habit.




Now if you have sensitive skin I just want to say make sure you go for product that will be kind to your skin. Also if you have a problem with blackheads, find one that controls blackheads, if your having trouble with your t-zone, find one specialized to the t-zone. Read the labels and find out what works best for you.


One last thing, this is for the prevention of acne, but showering with acne cleanser seems to help me when I have one another thing you can do if you have to go somewhere is try and make it as unnoticeable as possible. If you have popped the pimple (like I used to always do) the get the old hydrogen peroxide on a cotton bud to it. If you haven't popped it then used Neutrogena's 4 hour rapid.


Remember everyone this is the method I use on my skin, I'm not a doctor, but it does work for me. If you have any questions or you want to try something different just comment.

thank you

Misfits season 3!! :DDDD

So if you guys would like to know I'm a huuuge Misfits fan! For those of you who don't know what Misfits is its pretty much a group of teenagers who are sent to do community service for their petty crimes, but a weird storm comes in and they end up with mostly unwanted super powers, but their not the only ones..

This is a entertaining, short British show with many funny, witty comments from my favourite character Nathan. 

Now if your like me and don't like downloading but really want to see the show click the link below and this page should let you watch all the episode's without having to download, its just like any other youtube video. Also I didn't even have to wait for it to load, but some of you might have too.


If your already a fan of the show then most likely your favourite or one of your best characters is Nathan, I've never heard anyone hate him, so this link is for you guys.


So I decided to go trolling the web to see if I could get anything on the third season which I know for a fact has been anounced. Hopefully the person who has downloaded the full episode's of Misfits one and two does the same for three.

I found some serious spoilers DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW!!

Ok well I had to go for a bit of a walk around the house to calm myself (yes I am that much of a fan) so much to type, such good information, so many ways to express them.

To start with season three will have 8 episodes to it and one includes our misfits saving the world... again. It also has two big story lines this time and should start around November, but the website seemed that said it started in November seemed dodgy and I reckon it will start sooner then this.. I hope so anyway!!

First of all the season two ended on such a downer for me because they lost their powers.. I LOVE THEIR POWERS! I thought I wouldn't be able to get back into it again after that, another thing happened that made me doubt the show's next season and that was that they finished their community service, but after multiple readings I have learnt that our loved misfits will find their way back into the jumpsuits that made the show.

I wonder if they're back in jumpsuits this mean the killing of more probation officer's??

Also the misfits will get power's, but not necessarily their own, could this mean completly different powers for the show?

Well after finding this out I definitly can't wait for the season three, for you guys that havn't seen it yet I'm extremly jealous of you for having new episode's to watch until season three comes out!

Be a Boss, cut your own hair..

So since I cut my own hair, the first thing of course I would of done when I started was go through a million youtube videos-none of them very helpful. I just decided to go for it myself. MASSIVE MISTAKE!

So sometime later I thought, "hey, I've got nothing to do, I'll just see if I can cut my hair again!'' This day however I was having a challenging day and decided to turn myself emo/scene, I looked around and the best how to video was definitly this one..


She's pretty, she actually explains what she doing and what she users. The only thing I would change about this video is that she uses things that you actually use on your eyebrows, I looked around but couldn't find these, so if your having trouble just use a normal razor. If your using a razor though some will work better then others, cheaper ones actually work better because the blade isn't pretected with plastic, but make sure its sharp. Just try buying cheap ones because the first one you buy probably won't be sharp enough to get a smooth cut.

Yes I would like feather's with that..

So my friend didn't bring up feathers again today...
Probably because I forgot to bring the feathers to school, but whatever.. I tried it when I got home and I only have a few problems with the technique of plaiting feathers into your hair.

The first is I can't plait, little own plait feathers into my hair so I called for my darling talented Mother and she plaited the bit of hair I had left out. I decided to go with the bit underneath behind/over my ear, because my hair is longish it just works there. The I went to the old back-in-the-day craft kit and got out some cute and colourful feathers and after a bit of threatening to break them in half I finally got a yellow and red one in.

The problem that really bothered me the most though was that you could see the hairband. Then I thought back to my cousin and I when we were kids and she would braid my hair all the time with either colourful or clear elastics which at the moment is exactly what I need. I'm not sure where you can buy them, but I will have a look next time I'm in Bendigo.

I thought again about the extentions and thought they would be a good idea, but my Mum lives in the middle ages and has this thing about ordering online. The thing is she won't do it in a million years, no matter what she's ordering even if its off the tv. Anyway I will just have to look for them around the Mall next time I'm there. Which is hopefully soon I havn't been to Bendigo in ages and I have nothing to wear to the deb, but don't worry thats another story.

As soon as I find out where you can buy good ones I will tell you all. My only concern was that the extentions I've seen on google were one long feather and I have to admit they looked good on the pretty girls in the pictures, but I don't think they would suit me. I just want a bit of plaited fake hair with random cute feathers in it.

So I will leave you with these thoughts and if you have any other ideas on how to fix my problems please tell me. I really want to start a feather treand here in little central Victoria.

Can I have feathers with that?

So I was on the bus with one of my best friends today and randomly he said, "you know I saw I chic with feathers in her hair today, we should so do that!" I thought about it for a bit then remembered a packet of different sized feathers in one of my back-in-the-day craft kits. I told him about the cool colours and funkilious patterns and he told me to bring them to school tomorrow. I thought because of my dark brown hair and my friends ability to put random stuff in his hair they would look quite good and its something I should take up, but I got thinking about how I could go about this. This brings me finally to the end of this paragraph and the start of the blog...



So I went on a quest around google and the first thing I read was the first thing I thought and that is just plaiting the feathers into your hair, which since I'm too lazy to go shopping is probably what I would do. You have to remember though to pick apart of your hair that will look good. I know this is a vauge statement but don't make it to 'look at me' maybe put it close to the front but underneath your hair. Also try to keep the plaits as tight as possible and use a clear hairband. Remember though to do what YOU want!



Another thing that looks good if you don't want them in your hair is to use them in headbands or clips. I remember when I was about in year 7 I made a clip with a yellow craft feather and I would wear it every day for about 4 months straight. Wish I knew where that went.



The last thing I found to do with feathers is to actually buy feather hair extentions. Clip them in like regular hair extentions and away you go. Very Cute and extremly pretty, :)



Heres a website I found about clip in feather extentions
