Britain's Got Talent.....Supposedly...

Me and My friend went to see Britain's Got Talent yesterday. It was BRILLIANT fun but i have to admit the acts weren't up to much at all.

I'll start from the Beginning...

WE arrived about just over 2 hours early and waited in the freezing cold to make sure we defo got in. Because even though you get tickets they give them out over the amount that they will let in to compensate for the people who do not run up.

So freezing cold we waited and then Piers Morgan turned up...I got sooo excited lol... I was like " OMG, It's Piers Morgan!!!!" it was amazing then Amanda Holden turned up and i was the same. Also saw Big Tony (Simon's Body Guard) hanging outside having a smoke....he mustn't be doing his job well kos Simon was nowhere to be seen.
Then there were screams from behind us there was Ant and Dec!!!! it was sooo kool. lol. They looked like tiny dots kos they were so far away but it was still kool. lol

Anyway, we got ushered in and sat on the second row of the middle tier (because the ground floor seats were for V.I.P's. So, our seats were really good and we sat listening to High School Musical songs on the sound system for like 15minutes then a warm up comedian came on and chatted to us for a while. He was sooo funny. I Think his name was Roycey or something like that.
So when he came on he told us how the show worked and told us we had to do a few things. We had to do a recording of the whole audience getting up and clapping...at nothing, lol. Just so they can edit it in when it comes to production. We also had to shout "OFF! OFF! OFF!" as well at nothing.
He was talking away again and at one point i took a picture of him and my flash went off. He looked up to me and went "Why you taking a picture of me? Are you guna show it to your mates and say 'aw man, i sh***ed him last night' ? " . It was great banter.
He also asked who was from Glasgow and who wasn't and he shouted up to me again where i was from, since i shouted to sat i wasn't from Glasgow. I shouted where i was from a couple of times and he couldn't hear me so he just went "orite then". lol
After that i think he done a few jokes and then Ant and Dec came on just to say have fun, show your emotions and all that jazz.
The comedian then came back on and told us what to do when the Judges (Simon, Piers and Amanda) came on. We had to shout "Who Are Ya!" at Piers, it was really funny at the time".
So the Piers, Amanda and Simon cam on stage and Piers and Amanda said a wee bit, have fun etc, and then Simon came on. He just had to tell us that he is in fact 75% Scottish and that his mothers name is Daglish. lol.

So it proceeded to the auditions. How BAD they were. I mean there was the odd couple that were ok. I think about 4 people got through outa the 20 we saw.
I didn't realise how stop and start it was goin to be. I mean after every act, a producer or something would get up to the judges table and talk to them for a bout 5 minutes. but that wasn't that bad because Roycey came on and entertained us.
Another thing that was quite funny was that after every couple of acts Simon's make-up artist would come over an powder his face down.

I won't go into any of the acts because you'll get to see them when it's aired on TV but when they got Ex'd it was so scary. Its so loud and if you dont see it cumin you jump out ur skin. because sometimes the idiot that is Piers (but i do secretly heart him a little, lol, and simon too) would ex someone, like the slinky man (you'll see it, i hope), jumped out our skin and nearly had a conronary!!! lol

Oh yeah, i nearly forgot to say. When there was a break we went outside to get food or whatever and we met Stephen Mulhern. He is so handsome in the flesh and so lovely. we asked for a pic and he was like "yeah sure, of course" and i got a wee pic with him...was brill, lol!!!

Liars

i also cant stand it when people lie for no reason. i understand white lies...like if someone has gone to a lot of effort to like make a meal and its rubbish but you lie and say its lovely...i get that but lying for your own gain really pisses me off something awful.

like telling someone something just so you make urself feel better but never following through with it.

this latest rant is looooooooongggggggggg over due!

This Annoys Me So Much..

...when people say religion should be banned.

I am quite religious i would say and i think it makes me a better person. I'm not saying that people who aren't religious are by any means bad people I'm just saying i like being religious and it helps me in certain situations.

some of the bad things people do in this world people say they do it in the name of whoever their god is and it annoys me because they are just looking for something to pin their bad acts on. And its people who do this that give all religions a bad name.

I just writing this kos i read a interview in the Metro with Jason Isaacs and he said he'd ban all religion...and i liked him!!!

My Favourite Bible Passage....

I think I've put this on a post a few times but i just really love it and think it's brilliant.

Aye, so here it is:

Mark 5:21-43 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society

A Dead Girl and a Sick Woman
21When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake.
22Then one of the synagogue rulers, named Jairus, came there. Seeing Jesus, he fell at his feet 23and pleaded earnestly with him, "My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live."
24So Jesus went with him.
A large crowd followed and pressed around him.
25And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.
26She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse.
27When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28because she thought, "If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed."
29Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.
30At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"
31"You see the people crowding against you," his disciples answered, "and yet you can ask, 'Who touched me?' "
32But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it.
33Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and, trembling with fear, told him the whole truth.
34He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering."
35While Jesus was still speaking, some men came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue ruler. "Your daughter is dead," they said. "Why bother the teacher any more?"
36Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, "Don't be afraid; just believe."
37He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James and John the brother of James. 38When they came to the home of the synagogue ruler, Jesus saw a commotion, with people crying and wailing loudly.
39He went in and said to them, "Why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead but asleep."
40But they laughed at him. After he put them all out, he took the child's father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and went in where the child was.
41He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum!" (which means, "Little girl, I say to you, get up!" ).
42Immediately the girl stood up and walked around (she was twelve years old). At this they were completely astonished.
43He gave strict orders not to let anyone know about this, and told them to give her something to eat.

There's a Problem....

I started to write this blog because I wanted just to write everything down I was feeling or thinking or whatever.

But I've kinda discovered a problem. If you tell like all your friends about your blog then they obv will go and write on it, right? But what do you do if you just wana write about how someone pissed you off or something like that without them thinking that you're being a bitch about it but you really just wana get something off your chest and write it down here??

Anywayz, that's all i was thinking atm.

I keep writing on this solid for like a week and then i leave it for a month without writing anything. I'm guna try and get back into the rhythm of it and write down everything that i wana write but i wont be outing people....unless you really piss me off....but that will take alot....its good to keep people guessing!
