Thankyou

Cooh-eee im baaack!

Well having gone cold turkey on my cyber disease i am now cured and can enjoy the internet in moderation. I am not dependent on it, and can stand alone and face the world without it.

I thought I'd post a letter Careme once wrote to me after we spent valentines day doing yoga and having a sleepover with another friend (called Isaline for blog's sake):

"Dear Celeste,

This is just a letter to say a few thank-yous that I needed to say to you… and to try out your new (and very cool) keyboard on the laptop.

First, thank-you for the cake, it is very lemony and makes me feel all lemony, which is always a good thing, unless its in your eyes or something in which case it is quite painful (though I don’t know, I’m not the sort of person who puts lemon juice in their eyes often.) I have just eaten a piece of cake and I must say the fork is very fun!

Secondly, thank-you for coming to Yoga with me. It was a good experience although I am still shaking slightly, can still feel the incense in my lungs, and have never blacked out before. Still, all good! This is your favourite song after all, and it was a great experience. Remind me to pay you back.

Thirdly, thank (Isaline has just called you a bitch, don’t listen to her) thank you for having me and I really like your bedroom. The roses and the oars, you have decorated it very nicely.

Fourthly, thank-you, actually its kind of difficult to think of a fourth one. Oh yes, thank-you for letting me be the Lilac Fairy, and not to be all grumpy and mean as I would have been. That it very nice of you and your bluebird dance is amazing.

Fifthly, thank-you for helping me to spell fifthly… a real help.

Oh and let me tell you something, there is no such thing as a shorts-boy-pants. Don’t listen to her. Does your mother know that you out? You should really tell her otherwise poor Antoinette will be worried. I don’t believe you that you can’t read through the curtain. You’re a liar. Never mind. I like the cake. Lemony.

Careme x

P.S. Please don’t hug me."

I do actually really love her you know.

Good-bye Celeste

Well this is fun. I'm all by myself because Celeste fancies herself as a some psycho-nerd. Which means I can say anything I want about her.

Firstly I'm going to say that she is lovely. Truly lovely girl..... I don't know whether she's one of those people who are truly good inside, like Gordon Ramsey and our baking French teacher, but she's good enough for me. We are similar in lots of ways, although I don't generally go around calling people knobtartare (look at her previous posts) or labiaface. Yeah. That one stung.

She's also an AMAZING dancer. She dances like no-one's looking. Unfortunately, usually I am looking and normally get knocked out by some flailing arm. She has the moves, as do her family, who are all of the dancy-ginger type.

We actually have the same name in real life. I'm getting confused about which one is which... am I Celeste? or Careme? A self-made identity crisis.

But just always remember, value every friend you will ever have in life - whether they're the always-be-there-for-you-even-when-you're-old-and-gay type of friends or the make-you-toast-and-tea friends or just the insult-you-for-fun type of friends. Be nice to them.

So you just got told by the probably the worst friend ever - I don't even know when Celeste's birthday is and I've been too scared to tell her until now. Quite scared about Tuesday in fact.

Love Careme x

The Cyberdevil

I feel suddenly (irrationally some might say) extremely angry. very very furious. and it may be because i just discovered that Raef has a girlfriend, it may be something to do with the heap of corruption that is Tyra Banks, or it may be as i said at the beginning just an irrational moodswing that Careme and I suffer from a lot. I just swore at Careme for god's sake. It's because im online. yesterday i had over an hour of telephone conversation with her, and vowed not to go online again until tuesday, because it has made me wildly depressive and has fuelled my brownie fetish. and ive been bad. very very very bad. and now 10 hours later i am in my dressing gown, here, tapping away. i feel like i've joined some hideous cyberdevil who wont let me leave the computer. well im going. and i wont be back.

(until tuesday)

Ass licking

You pervert! I meant it metaphorically.

Well the pressure is mounting as our viewing figures have finally peaked at one (thankyou Josiebabes, i cant express enough of my love for you) and i figured it was time we posted something wildly hilarious. ok, ok, i hear you scream "we want to hear the atom joke!" well you're wrong, because chemistry lesson puns just aren't funny!

No, i can't do this any more, im lying- this joke is seriously life enriching (and educational)
Well two atoms are bouncing down the road (it is irrelivant which ones, pick your favourite if you must. i reckon it feels more copper and zinc than iron and calcium though.) and one (i would hazard a guess at copper) says "Oh no! i think i left an electron in the bar" (please ignore the fact that copper would actually be happy to lose an electron- he loves to bond metalically) and the other one (zinc persay) says "are you sure?" and copper replies (with thumbs up if you must, because it really does make him seem more endearing and approacheable) "I'm POSITIVE!" ahhhahaa. did yo ulike that i put the key pun word in capitals to help yo uget the joke? pah, and careme says i'm patronising!

Anyway in response to my title (although obvioulsy it was just a twisted ploy to make you read my post) i have been littering cyberspace with links to our blog in an attepmt to lick some asses into viewing our profile. if you were a recipient, feel proud! To quote Bailey from sisterhood of the travelling pants "They brought me to you!"

x Celeste

p.s. i know that as i live in england and say b-ar-th and l-ar-gh i am not actually officially authorised to say 'ass' but should instead say arse (its so much much more colin firth dah-ling). you are permitted to hate me.

Raef the Teddy Bear - The Apprentice

Bankrupt and obese: study leave so far

Good one Careme!

Now while my little friend here can only be described as vraiment travailleuse i prefer to spend my 'study' leave eating and buying lovely things for careme (as yesterday morning illustrated). However I have also had a little time (can you believe!) to watch a trillion million mega-giga-trons of online video footage, and i thought it was time to draw attention to the new love of my life. yes fellow blogoshpherers i do refer to none other than Raef of the apprentice. Now as i am the last word in computer savvy i will shortly post straight from youtube to our blog (aho yes) the occasion when he dressed up as a bear. you could laugh, you may cry, and you most certainly will fall in love: but i warn you, he is mine.

Raef: If you are out there in cyberspace, this is an official proposal: will you marry me?

It's Exam Time, boys and girls!!

Today was the first day of study leave for our GCSEs. My first one is on Thursday, but Celeste is probably in a Latin exam as we speak... and so let's send her a virtual good luck message. Bzzzz.

I, on the other hand, got to stay at home, search for food in the ever dwindling supplies in our house, and run after my revision notes when they ALL got blown away. I've just given up revising biology because the number of exclamation marks in our text-book (e.g. Diabetes can cause coma and even death!!!) have made me inexplicably angry.

It's sunny here, just so you know. The english have a very strange way of dealing with sunny weather. Firstly we get really excited, because it doesn't happen that often, and then we take off all our clothes. For some reason, guys just suddenly get the urge to display their man-boobs. Maybe I'm just jealous though - most of them are larger than mine.

Good luck in the exams....

Celeste and Careme's Top 3 Movie Lines

Here are the little gems of from all the movies we have watched together. These are the ones you HAVE to rewind for:

1. "You're the coolest person I've ever met and you don't even have to try...
I try really hard, actually"
from JUNO, best film ever. I went to see it in the cinema, and Celeste kept on cracking up at jokes way after they'd finished, just from the memory of them. Afterwards I kept on saying the line to Celeste and she wouldn't get that it was a quote, and thought I was actually a nice friend or something...

2. "Jess, I'm Irish, of course I know how that feels"
Jonathan Rhys Meyers gives his best performance to date in Bend it Like Beckham. Not quite sure why its so funny, the reference to anti-Irish racism perhaps?? Watch it and weep.

3. "He was a liar!"
Unnamed boy suddenly shouts this out in the middle of About A Boy. Why isn't he famous for it? Why isn't there a facebook appreciation society to those four words? Some questions will never be answered...

New from Careme

"At last!" I hear you all cry. At last I have rememberd just what our password was and so I can now post an All About Me. Celeste's been pestering me to spill my life secrets online, so I guess I better had before she accuses me of giving up on Kettle Me Crazy and our life in virtual-paradise.

I know its fun to make lists, top ten lists, and so here's a top ten of Careme:

1. I only like order in a superficial way. I like it in a 1 to 10 way, but I don't like planning. I get crazy nervous when planning, so Celeste just tells me when to meet her and I do.

2. I have never planned my wedding. Actually, that's a lie. Yesterday I realised I had never planned my wedding and drifted off into a proposal fantasy. So if any of you out there ever meet me and want my hand in marriage then just take me to G&Ds in Oxford. You'll say "Will you marry me?", I'll say "Mmmm.... I'll think about" and then you'll go get me a chocolate icecream with raspberry sorbet and I'll realise that this is all I want in my life and I'll say "yes". I'm quite looking forward to it actually.

3. My second toe is longer than my big toe. Just in case this puts you off the idea of marriage.

4. I act completely different around different people. Usually its the opposite of their character. So when I'm with our friend Marie (another hilarious frenchoid pseudonym), who's really fantastical and idealistic, I'm always cynical. I guess I'll have to work out some day which one of these people I actually am, and which ones I have just created for myself. But, if your honest, will you ever separate "you" and what you want to be...

5. I act completely different around people who are tall as well. Celeste is comfortably shorter than me. Being shorter than someone makes me nervous. I have nightmares about it sometimes.

6. I daydream all the time. They turn out to be these really complex episodes where I know exactly what each person says. And then I sabotage them because they will never really happen. I guess I know now that I will never be proposed to with a rasberry and chocolate icecream.

7. I dance with Celeste. That's what's so good about our friendship. We are sometimes just in her kitchen (which is immense by the way) and we just start to dance. Usually it ends quickly, when she hits me with a flailing arm, or when I go WAY over the top, but its good that we have those moments.

8. Plimsolls, tea, lemsip, toast, tall boyfriends and wit - this is teenage life as I want it to be.

9. We're both ANTM fans. Which means that we, like all the other ANTM fans out there, think Tyra is a bitch, but still want to be her, believe that we are more high fashion than commercial, and know that HenryEvil is a genius.

10. Oh... Things About Me is dwindling away. I cannot think of 10 interesting things to say about me. I'm tired. And you are too. Go have a cup of tea and keep it calm.
