let me eat cake

I’m still not completely sure what this blog will stand for, my past blogs have always been me me me: “today I went to eat” “today I hate the world” “ooh I brought new socks” and other mundane things which are cool but not life changing, more change the channel. This blog I want to use to work on my writing and be a general asshole about subjects that don’t concern me in the: “Today I ate pizza” way and also in the “mind your own biznaz jade gosh” way (i’m Jade by the way).

So I think i’m going to do a bit of reviewing if thats ok with y’all … my ADORING public

*crickets* *tumble weed* *Bin Laden coughs*

The video up above is a song by Bombay Bicycle Club called Always like this, I remember this band from a few years ago when myspace was not the sad sorry ugly sister of facebook, never paid much attention to them until recently. I was doing work experience with Heat Magazine this week(FYI american readers Heat Mag is an English celeb magazine) and they play the radio in there and on the first listen of this song I made sure I carefully sent the song name and band to my email address to later track it down. And so I sent Bombay Bicycle Club - Boys like this O_O. Anyway I managed to figure it out and find it on youtube. 

Always like this is a great chilled song they remind me of Vampire Weekend. “So why do we need another vampire weekend Jade? We already have one” Yes but Vampire Weekend did not make this song and this song is kind of perfect to my ears so Bombay Bicycle Club should be given a chance.

If my calculations are correct (and mostly they never are) the boys are around 19 years old Always like this is the first release from their second album called I had the blues but I shook them loose. It was actually released in the UK in April 2009 and didn’t have great chart success, which is a little suprising because it sounds like a great song to accompany spring and the tentative blue skys and pretty flowers it brings along. C’est la vie I guess. No need to give up hope though boys, a lot of people did not even know about Kings of Leon until their sex went on fire and then a lot of their new fans listened to their old stuff and fell in love. I think if these guys get lucky and get some sex on fire or just do something sexy with an element then their always like this will one day be the king of the rodeo (yaseewhatididthere?).

That berry lurve

I should really post to this page a lot more. A LOT more.

Let me pick up where I left off, well before I posted my bikini panties. Soo. Mo-bile-phones. Sidekick. Not going to happen unfortunately. It was a huge hullabaloo and just could not work. Instead I have decided to get an LG GW520 which is like a poor mans Sidekick. Le dildo to le dick. Not ideal but I guess it will do, it you LIKE that sort of thang, i’m not here to judge but O_O

I did not succumb to the Blackberry, but I was thinking today while I was doing my research what is this sudden hate of the blackberry? It used to be one of my loves but I have shunned it and turned my back on it because it is now a dirty whore. No thats not fair, it’s just. Before no one wanted to know, who was there? Me. Now it turns on for just anyone and you know, I can’t deal. Then I realised i’m being a snob. Like those people who complain about how good a band was BEFORE it went mainstream and started making moolah. They would prefer for them to be obscure and broke. I am being a snob and being selfish, a blackberry needs to pay the rent too and I understand. So I have called a truce and maybe one day i’ll be back but. Baby steps for now.

Throughout every generation there is always an “it thing” to have. I believe back in the day there was a time when it might have been one of those paddles with a piece of string and a ball attatched to it. The caveman days. Fast foward to our era we had alien babies, tamagotchis, pokemon cards, yoyo’s, pogs etc. etc. We have grown up now but the idea of an “it thing” very much exists. You must know what i’m about to mention, it sounds like a fruit but should not be eaten.

The blackberry. I don’t want to toot my own horn. But fucking toot. I’ve had a blackberry for two years now, granted it wasn’t the huge one but thats because when I went to upgrade they only could give me the smaller one so there you go. Anyway thats not the point. The point is blackberrys are so 2000 and over. And i’m not just saying that because my blackberry has died on me. Slightly. Right now i’m overly excited about getting a sidekick.

I say getting, an active verb as if it is in the post for me right now. So far i’ve only been active in my mind in regards to this phone. My problem is that they do not make them for UK people. I KNOW!? DISCRIMINATION. So I have hatched a cunning plan with the help of an online t-mobile advisor.

I shall first purchase it in the U.S. (I have contacts over there, i’m sure sean puffy combs can be off assistance) then bring it over to the U.K. get it unlocked. I have to make sure that the U.K. sim that I have has internet on it and then it should work like a charm. SHOULD. The t-mobile person said it should be fine, she was really supportive because she loves sidekicks too and thinks “blackberrys are rubbish”. We got emotional together and the plan was born.

I love big chunky things and this is why I love sidekicks, why I rebuke the Nintendo lite over the original DS. Why I first wanted a blackberry instead of the phones at the time that were as big as your thumbnail. Wish meh luck & I shall keep you posted on all things chunky.

There is a website that I like to visit from time to time. It is very near and dear to me and a SECRET. I almost don’t want to write about it. Infact I hope your eyes roll out of your head right NOW. So you cannot read on. If your eyes are still intact I pray that your fingers go paralytic so you cannot scroll on.

biatch.

If you are still with me …then good for you. So the website is called Nastygalvintage.com it used to purely be an Ebay store … I used to visit it and just salivate (because my Ebay skills are POOR). THEN they decided they would create an actual online store and I took this as even more evidence that God is good and exists. However then I saw the prices of things and because they are L.A. based the shipping is slightly major…’Huge poofy 80’s dress’ costs quite a bit to ship to England. So now i’m still stuck just salivating but atleast now I can “add to basket” and pretend i’m buying things.

It’s a really great site and you can tell that they put a lot of effort into scouring good vintage finds not to mention I love the styling. Another aspect I love is the independant designers on the site too! So if you’re not broke like me and you’re sick of ASOS like me then have a looksie.

Click this to go to the site: http://www.nastygalvintage.com … just don’t tell anyone. Or I kill you. JORS KIDDIN!
