k my last blog post was pretty sentimental, so let's get back to mocking ppl ... and by people I mean certain Beatles lol

Sometimes life gives us false hope.
A great example is:
Paul was a derp. For a long time I used to think 'Oh, it's because most of these pictures/gifs/images are from the 1960s. He'll get wiser and older. For some time I actually believed this. That he is now a wise man. But turns out we have been fooled.

We can't pray the derp away.

It turns out that this is simply Paul's laifstail. It's part of who he is.


So, without further ado:
A blog post dedicated to old Paul
(PS: ALYSSA TOTALLY TOLD ME SHE LIKES YOUNG PAUL BETTER OMG SHE NO LUVS YOU NO MORE PAUL ;---; )

still holding guitars 24/7 and still talking Gibberish

This is why he probably pays people to run his Instagram
Otherwise we would only see a new post every 5 years lol

Representing Liverpudlian culture

When u have no idea where you are or who all these people are

but you just roll with it

Ok ...
Isn't this what everyone does while standing in their kitchen?
...
no?

I guess by 'edge' he means the edges of his stages he keeps falling off

TALKING ABOUT FALLING OFF STAGES

:D

or watch this video

or just falling general

Idk but he seems happy, I guess

Lol

Is this the macarena?

watch carefully

even Paul doesn't like his younger self   ;D

One of the most beautiful old couples ;w;

No, but seriously, I'm scrolling down and going to the weird side of google images again

Ok ... what?   o___o

Who is he stalking?

(his son's just like: 'here he goes again' )

heroes~

Okay, listen up people cuz I will post this embarrassing stuff only once

I wanna do a more personal blog post about who my heroes are
aka my role models/ people I look up to


1. okay, let's start with the embarrassing one first (I actually feel awkward when typing this XDD help)

P- p... Paul McCartney      (>w>)

No comment ... moving on to the next one ... jk ofcourse
Well, where should I start? Since a few years I've become obsessed with the Beatles again, even though I've always liked their music. Last year I did this 'Which Beatle are you?' test for fun and got Paul McCartney as result. Not much later I did the test again and got the same result. I've done it several times and 99% of the time I have Paul as result (I had George and John maybe both once, because I changed my answers that much. But even when I sometimes change my answers, I get Paul as result). So I guess it's fate?
I remember making this blog post in 2015 and basically it said 'My new resolution is to become the genderbend version of Paul'. Just to be clear, I was joking! Turns out my life didn't understand this was a joke. Ever since that test ... Every time I think of something I have in common with Paul, I find something else that's the same not much later. This can be anything: the way I sit, how I laugh or talk, having big brown eyes, the way I behave around people, making dumb jokes and laughing awkwardly afterwards, the list goes on (seriously, what is my life trying to do with me ;w;) It's a bit creepy sometimes.
But if there's one thing the movie Frozen taught me it's: you must learn to control your curse
So ye ... why not accept it?
But all jokes aside, Paul is someone I look up. Not just cuz he's a great musician, but just his optimistic personality, how he went from a guy who grew up in a poor family to a super rich guy but never became a snob, just his life in general

(I show my admiration in weird ways haha ^^; )

My friend: Paola

Maybe even my biggest role model. I guess it's because part of our personalities is the same and another part is completely different. And it's the different part I look up to. She's: mature, elegant, calm, patient, etc. A lot of things I'll never be. Also, all the things she achieved as an artist and illustrator. Back in December I made this embarrassing clingy blog post for her which said 'everything about her life is interesting to me. Even when she does nothing at all'. Why I look up to her is a mystery for me as well. All I know is that she's my senpai  =w=

3.
My grandfather

I remember when he passed away. His death and funeral are something I don't remember too well, since I was only 11 years old. I do remember that after he passed away, it affected me for about another year. I would be quiet or suddenly withdrawn from people around me. Luckily, I learnt to think about all the happy memories. And there are so many fun memories.
The reason why I look up to him is because "I inherited my personality from him" as I like to put it. I mean, when it comes to looks I definitely look like my maternal grandparents: tanned, dark brown eyes, dark brown/black hair. But when I comes to personality, I take after my grandfather. So here's a description of what he was like:
A cheerful and silly man who always looked stylish. He might have been a tiny bit vain since I remember that he always combed his hair, making sure his hairdo was on point. My grandmother is rather serious, my grandfather could be a complete goof at times. Sure, he was a retired man. But he was still young at heart. He was still very playful and active: he would do morning gymnastics, take us swimming, we walked through woods together, took us to his kitchen garden, he was good at drawing (my mum, me and my sisters inherited our creative and drawing skills from him).

Bad editing skillz~

lol I got bored at night

I showed my friend the picture and she be sayin' stuff that I look like Paul ... -sobs-

'close enough'   ;---;

-insert old person mumbling here-

Anyway, for the record: I was NOT cosplaying Paul at 2AM  lol

(one day night that'll probably happen jest u wait)

I was messing around with make up and editing stuff, so I present to you my terrible make up AND edit skills lol enjoy I guess

(the original)

(and the one I used as an avatar, it's the same one I just made it darker)

I don't know what the inspiration was, the make up reminds me a bit of the make up they use for Día De Los Muertos

I don't really have a name for this look so I'll call it 'soul consumed by Beatlemania'  :3

oh ye here some random shit

 lol what a stare down

 this make up makes me feel like a different pers-

JK IT STILL ME

 Bruh my hair was so poofy and e'rything

lowkey like this pic

Anyway, doing a serious face is pretty hard when you're in such a goofy mood

Weekend @ Gent, summed up

I used the words 'summed up' to make people believe this is gonna be a short post   c:

DAY 1: DAYTIME
- took the train and it was calm. then I had to take the tram to go to the city centre and could barely move lol
- went to my sister's appartment and she and a friend were playing this 'guess all the countries in the world quiz' (you get a blank world map and you have to sum up as many countries as possible and you get a certain amount of minutes to do so. Each time you guess a country, the country is coloured green on the map

 check me being in love with myself

- I told her I wanted to try the quiz, too, later that day and that my result would be better.
- my sister wanted to go to the supermarket. I went with her to help. My sis bought the bottle of martini she promised me earlier, two bottles of tequila and one crate of beer
- the supermarket wasn't super far away, but we had to walk a while: so with bottles in our handbags and both holding this crate through the city centre (now I know what daily Scouse activities are like)
- after bringing everything to my sister's appartment I decided to go to the city myself
- I visited shops
- I went inside Primark, during sales. I know it was a bad idea and still did it
- I was surrounded by people all the time .___.
- Then I walked a bit further to the Lush store since good friends (and housemates) of my sisters work there and I went to say hello, which I always do when I'm in Gent
- I also bought soaps with lemon/lime flavour and pink lipstick  c:

- Then I went to this really nice store that sells decorations/posters/lamps/plushies to see if this plush I really wanted was still there. And it was! It was kinda expensive but eventually I decided to buy it anyway (impulse shopping, which is a rare thing for me to do)
- The plush is literally an angry bird. It looks kinda pissed/annoyed so I decided to name it 'John' XDDD

- Before I left her appartment, my sister asked to look for another bottle of alcohol to use for a cocktail. So after I passed the other stores, I went to a (different) supermarket.
- But this one was even more located in the city centre and super busy so it was all chaos
- Back at the appartment, I did the 'countries of the world' test and beat my sister. She guessed about 100 countries and I guessed 126. (what did she expect, I graduated in tourism. back in highschool this was almost basic knowledge for me. hah)
- also, I think I am now officially sorted into my Beatles house. My sister was having a party at 5pm, but there weren't a lot of people yet and her appartment was kinda empty so I went to a nearby square. I was alone, it was dark and cold and long story short I was being a loner wearing pink and then:

that damn store

DAY 1: NIGHTTIME/PARTY
- I was chatting with people at the party and we were talking about music genres. At first I started by saying I really love 90s music. I'm always kinda scared to tell people I love everything 90s since most people considering it ridiculous XD turns out one of these girls loves 90s music as well so I felt pretty relieved.
BUT THEN at one point. We talked about favourite band. First, I laughed and said:
'haha, ye, I have some favourite bands, I guess'
'You know what's funny?'
'So, I like certain music from the 60s'
'Well, I'm a big Beatles fan'
'... and my other favourite band is Black Eyed Peas and these two are completely different'
(the things you say when you consume alcohol -nervous laughing-)
for me saying that felt a bit like coming out, since I never said it to anyone before XDD (I know it sounds ridiculous)
At least I haven't gotten that drunk that I admitted to anyone I like Paul McC- okay neverrr mind this line doesn't exist
- my sister made us blue curaçaos (scorp sis enjoyed the alcohol a bit too much lol)

 - Then we all played cards against humanity. I already told you about this one person who played the 'Scousers' card and that I was the only one who knew what 'Scousers' are. I was kinda jealous that someone else got that card haha. I thought I didn't have any Liverpool related cards, but I now remember I had this card that said 'The Hillsborough Disaster'
- I assume you don't know about this disaster (a human crush at Hillsborough football stadium in Sheffield, in 1989, during the semi-final game between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest) why did I get such a sad carrrd ;-; (don't look it up, a lot of Scousers died)
- a few hours later, some people had already left
- at first we wanted to go sit on the roof but we couldn't get on it cuz the entrance to the roof was closed
- so my sister proposed going out in the city (it was now +-midnight)

DAY 2: NIGHTTIME
- at one point my sister opened a bottle (I think it was champagne, since they popped a bottle. I was startled lmao)
- we went to a nearby park and then went to the playground
- we were the only ones there and everyone was playing around
- I was on a swing I was smiling the entire time

 scorp sis, lol

- oh ye fun fact, my sister (not the scorp sis) forgot to put on her actual shoes when we left her appartment. she was walking around on her slippers all the time lol)

- then we went to the city centre again, people wanted to drink and I just hung out with them X3

- then we went back to my sisters appartment, but I went to bed not much later cuz I was getting tired

DAY 2: DAYTIME

- I didn't get a lot of sleep. I woke up early. I'm guessing between 6:15AM and 6:30AM

- every one else was still asleep

- I stayed in bed until about 9AM and got dressed

- I had to be quiet since the appartment was full of sleeping people (I think 7 people stayed over, including myself)

- I went for a morning walk through the city (even tho my feet hurt at this point)

 

- I visited my sister's house just outside the city centre, then we went back to the city centre to the others since there was a small event with free drinks and I had glühwein
- we kept walking around (walking was torture for me, since my feet hurt because of my heels (almost typed feels lol) and Gent is full of  cobblestones
- After this we went back to me sister's appartment and I packed me stuff
- lol I went to Gent with just my handbag and came back with my handbag and a suitcase (my mum asked me to bring back home one of the suitcases that were at my sister's place)
- it was handy because I could carry all the heavy and big things (like John the bird lol) in it, but not very handy if you have to travel/walk through a city
- normally I think it's funny to see students carry all their bags and/or suitcases, but this time I was the only one with a suitcase this bag -help-

- I didn't look up when I had a train I just left and when I arrived at the station I had 4 minutes to get on my train and get through the station with that huge thing. I was still on time
- When I arrived in the next city, I was right in time for my bus: it was about to leave (I had to run while wearing heels and with a suitcase why thooo)

this blog post doesn't really have an ending
so just remember: people who can sleep with their eyes open and are scouse are witches    c:

How To Prank Cludi

OKAY, FIRST OF ALL: I AM THE WORST FRIEND ANYONE COULD ASK FOR
I know I know

After pranking my dearest cludi several times in a row and after some smaller pranks on Discord
I decided it's time for ...
(you'll never guess it)
... another prank     :3

Alyssa falling for my jokes stays funny, no matter how many times she falls for them
BUT HEY
she said 'one day she won't fall for my pranks anymore'
(still waiting for that 'one day' to come tho .____. )

I'm always interested in trying out new kind of pranks, so this time I present you: the drawing prank
Not to worry, it's innocent (I always say that lol)

So, I told her I was drawing an OC of mine with the following traits:
- likes to wear pink
- big brown eyes
- girl
- brown hair
- pretty similar to me

I may have lied a liiiiiitle bit

Let's look at the progress of my drawing:

I was afraid she might recognize the character after I showing the drawing of the eye but nope

 OH? HIS eyes?   -pretends to be shocked-

at this point he looked a bit that mute dwarf from Snow White

I was and still am happy with how his eyes and face came out

c:

this 'girl' who's totally a girl lol

oh no I 'forgot' to draw part of her hair

My friend helping me

at this point my heart was telling me I'm a bad person

... but I ignored it lol

and the final result:

Sorry for those who were hoping to see a girl ;w;

Okay, I lied
But then again, I didn't completely lie
- he likes to wear pink
- not a girl, but has some rather girly traits (I wanted to say 'girly' but forgot the y)
- he's appeared so much on my blog post that I consider him an oc now (yes, I just claimed an irl person as oc)
- big brown eyes and brown hair was true
- we do have a lot of similarities and a lot in common (ask those beatles tests if you don't believe me)
