Oh hai there boys and girls alike, right now as I'm writing this, it is my second blog in one day, excitement! But I probably won't publish this until tomorrow (today for you guys.. Or something) so hello Yalda from the past, here are reasons why I hate X Factor!
1. Oh it's that time of year again, where everyone is talking about X Factor! I say talking as a light term, what I really mean is going absolutely obsessively crazy over. Guys, it's a TV show. Also being an Internet nerd, on facebook, the whole of my news feed is this programme. I don't need to watch it, I can get the whole script from the show simply from my friend's status'!
2. Pretty sure you all know what X Factor is, a talent show, the best singer gets a record deal. But I hate the way that so many people vote for popularity, looks, not actual raw talent. If it was, let's face it, it would be a lot more boring and no one would watch it. I wonder if it wasn't a TV show, it was a weekly radio show or something. You had no idea what they looked like, simply their voice. Would the same singers be voted in?
3. This links with point 2. So the winner of X Factor gets a big contract and everything? They virtually get a Christmas number 1 (up until last year - power of the people RATM!). Wouldn't it be better for a Christmas number 1 to go to someone who actually deserves it, which musical ability and talent. This is why I supported the Rage Against The Machine project so much: a) it's a great band with a great song, b) they have been around for years, and will be around for years to come! The winners of X Factor will be forgotten very quickly.
4. I was talking to a friend of mine the other day about X Factor. I said once I'd watched it, Simon Cowell gave some criticism and got booed by the audience! I mean, he's a judge, can't he have an opinion? What's he meant to do, just sit there and say they were great to every person? He's not Cheryl Cole let's face it.. Personally I think he's the best judge, even though he's a bit of an idiot. My friend again said she didn't like him at all. I thought to myself, you're just lining his wallet the more you watch his shows.
Oh would you look at that, I've just published this on the same day, I lied to you all earlier! For that I can only apologise I'm so sorry.
Well it's like Christmas for you, two new blogs in one day. Peace out <3

Introduction blog
Yeah, I've given in and created one of these blogspots things, where I recite what's going on in my life, and make it seem alot more interesting that it actually is. Decided to make one of these because I talk waaay too much and anyone who actually cares about what's going on with me, feel free to read and enjoy :)
So, it's the 31st of October. School starts again tomorrow and for once I have got every bit of work out the way. Actually looking forward to tomorrow, not getting up 4 hours earlier than I have been for the past week. But an event which happens every year called NaNoWriMo.
This is one of my favourite times of the year. It's a global competition where writer's everywhere try to write a 50,000 word novel, in the single month of November. Now for anyone who isn't a nerdfighter this seems the most pointless use of my time ever. I'm not even a writer but I do find it quite enjoyable. Last year consisted of me having no idea what to write about, and ending up rambling for about 20,000 words. This year I've decided to take a different approach and actually plan, and have a plot. So yesterday I sat down, with my pen and notebook, and wrote nothing. No idea worth writing 50,000 words about came into my head. So it's gonna be another interesting year!
So I think that's about it. That is probably the most I'll ever write on this thing. Don't expect regular updates because if there's nothing going on in my life, I will write nothing :) so toodle pip and have a good day people. <3
