EXTREME Rock Paper Scissors
Almost in an attempt to out-do ourselves in the insanity department, me and my friends came up with an extreme version of Rock Paper Scissors. It's a three player game, we haven't properly tried it out yet so we don't know how well it'll work. Some combinations of objects/people/whatever have no effect on each other. There are tag teams, there's one object that needs a dice and all sorts of other complicated things. I've put in bold the items that are in one or more tag teams. Here are the rules. Good luck (understanding what the hell this is all about.)
** Cement beats tarpaulin UNLESS the third person is rain, in which case they form said tag team to defeat rain
*** In the event that each of acid, rain, and fire are used, you'll have to fight to the death to decide a winner.
If you would like to know more, just ask. I can't promise i'll be able to give a comprehensible answer but feel free to ask anyway :) if you try the game out, let me know how it goes. Bonsoir.
- Rock BEATS scissors, glue, pea shooter, cardboard, pin, Ginny
- Paper BEATS rock, Ginny
- Scissors BEATS paper, water balloon, cardboard, pin, tarpaulin, Ginny
- Glue BEATS paper, scissors, cardboard, Zak, Ginny
- Fire BEATS rock, paper, scissors, glue, pea shooter, cardboard, tarpaulin, Ginny
- Water Balloon* BEATS paper, fire, cardboard, Ginny
- Cement BEATS rock, paper, scissors, glue, pea shooter, cardboard, pin, tarpaulin**, Ginny
- Acid BEATS rock, paper, scissors, glue, water balloon, pea shooter, cardboard, pin, Ginny
- Pea Shooter BEATS paper, glue, Ginny
- Cardboard BEATS paper, Ginny
- Pin BEATS paper, glue, pea shooter, cardboard, Zak, Voldemort, Harry, Ginny
- Rain BEATS paper, fire, cardboard, Zak, Ginny
- Tarpaulin BEATS pea shooter, rain, Zak, Voldemort, Ginny
- Zak BEATS rock, paper, scissors, fire, cardboard, Voldemort, Ginny
- Voldemort BEATS rock, paper, scissors, glue, fire, water balloon, cement, acid, pea shooter, cardboard, Ginny
- Harry (Potter) BEATS rock, paper, scissors, glue, fire, water balloon, cement, acid, pea shooter, cardboard, rain, tarpaulin, Voldemort
- Ginny BEATS Harry
- Acid and Fire BEATS everything***
- Acid and Rain BEATS everything***
- Cement and Tarpaulin BEATS rain
- Zak and Water Balloon BEATS everything except tarpaulin
- Zak and Pea Shooter BEATS Voldemort, Harry, Ginny
- Zak and Harry BEATS tarpaulin, Ginny
- Pin and Water Balloon-this tag team means that water balloon does not need to throw a dice, because it'll definitely pop
** Cement beats tarpaulin UNLESS the third person is rain, in which case they form said tag team to defeat rain
*** In the event that each of acid, rain, and fire are used, you'll have to fight to the death to decide a winner.

Eurovision!!
Soooooo...who's brave enough to admit they watched Eurovision?? I can't really deny it seeing as i posted a billion facebook statuses about it :') i like to think that i really get Eurovision. I am its intended audience. I can't help it. It draws me in, like a comet pulled from orbit or something. I get proper excited by it. I watch the semi finals. I score that countries. This year i even painted my nails as little French flags because I thought (and still think) Amaury Vassili should have won.
Anyway...my favourite acts this year (apart from France, back to them later) were most definitely Moldova, Sweden, Ireland and Spain. Can't believe Spain came last-it was such a happy, catchy song!! Never mind. For those of you who didn't watch it, Moldova were represented by Zdob si Zdub who wore massive cone hats, shouted most of the song and featured a unicycling fairy. Yeah. Here's the link-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqNmLtMBTSw. I have seen this countless times now and i still hasn't lost any of its...umm...charm.
Also singing this year were, of course, Jedward, representing Ireland. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXouSYabDig. If you think they're out of time due to excessive excitement and energy, you should have seen them in the final. Unfortunately i couldn't find i link but trust me, it was like watching two sparkly red monkeys who'd had one too many cups of coffee and had just been told there would be free cake for all. My family were in tears of laughter watching them. Naturally, the UK gave them 12 points, but the traitors only gave us about 6!!
On the subject of voting, Graham Norton was on top form-when France gave us one point, he commented "One?? We built a tunnel to your country." Whatta legend.
Sweden had a really good artist this year-Eric Saade with his song Popular. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nfx0OMM2u0A. He actually looks spookily like someone i know. But i really liked his song, and the glass breaking, although that didn't work out on the night...probably a good job-health and safety would have had a field day!!
The UK placed 11th overall, which isn't that bad, although we were third (i think) the other year. But with 100 points, that was ten times better than last year!!
So, back to France. AMAURY VASSILI. I have already decided to name one of my children after him. Unless i marry him. Obviously. I absolutely LOVE his song <3 ok so it maybe wasn't 'Eurovision' enough, but only because it was so damn good!! One sec...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwhMsJQl2ps. There are no more words.
Anyway, i hope if you did watch it that you had a great night, and maybe if you've not watched it, i might have convinced you for next year...? No...ah well. Over and out x

EYEPATCH LADY...*SPOILERS*
So for all you Whovians out there, you may have noticed the existence of a mysterious eyepatch lady in the last two episodes. She looks like this...
So far, only Amy's seen her, through a disappearing hatch, and all she's said is "no, i think she's just dreaming" (Day of the Moon) and "it's fine, you're doing fine. Just stay calm" (The Curse of the Black Spot). WHO IS SHE?? Why can only Amy see her?? Why does her little hatch keep disappearing?? Why does she have an eyepatch?? Is she human?? Is she a goodie??
"Hello, i'm Eyepatch Lady. I'm very mysterious and stuff. Ho ho ho." (N.B. not an actual quote.) |

I was reading some forums and whatnot last night-many people think she could be a midwife of some sort. Also, one clever soul thought that maybe Amy is trapped between two worlds somehow which is why she appears pregnant and not pregnant at the same time. This theory also links to the episode Amy's Choice from last year because Amy was preggers then too and there were two worlds there. I dunno. I thought midwife but then i think it'll be something completely unexpected because that's how Steven Moffat's brain works. Having said "WHO IS SHE??" in big capital letters, i've just remembered i know her name-Lady Kovarian. Not that that really makes anything clearer :') but it's something i suppose. Apparently she's going to appear in episode 7-'A Good Man Goes To War' which is where she's listed as Lady Kovarian. I know nothing more.
Blatantly i know absolutely nothing exclusive or exciting, i just needed to get it out my system. Will probably do a follow-up post at some point once we know a bit more :) hasta luego x

CAN YOU DANCE LIKE A HIPPOGRIFF??
So, in case you didn't know, i'm in a band called Pantheon of Dischord...
http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/pages/Pantheon-of-Dischord/339604244462
Anyway, me and Rach are both pretty big Potterheads and in honour of Deathly Hallows Part 2, we're going to have a HP-themed musical session!!!! Covering Do The Hippogriff by The Weird Sisters (hence the title), the Hogwarts School Song and possibly some Ministry of Magic because they're AMAZING. We're also dressing up as our favourite characters to go see the film but that's another story...
Check out our Facebook page anyway cos all our music is up there. We mostly do covers of pretty much anything, so there's almost certainly a song you'll like and we do consider requests!! I'm also hopefully making us a YouTube Channel soon so i'll keep you posted on that :)
If you have any other Potter-ish song suggestions for our Deathly Hallows Day then let me know, either comment on here or write on the wall of the page :)
TTFN x

Enjoy the Silence
NEW FAVOURITE SONG.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2xUMiUrCs8
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand
Oh my little girl
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
<3

Recipe for Butterbeer
Cream soda
Butter
Cream
Butterscotch (chips, sauce or both!)
1. Pour the cream soda into a cup, and the butter & butterscotch into a a small bowl.
2. Put the bowl of butter and butterscotch in the microwave and melt it.
3. Put the cream soda in the microwave, but not for long because you want it to be moderately warm, or it isn't fizzy and good anymore!
4. Pour some melted butter and butterscotch in the cream soda but not too much!
5. Pour some cream in. Then stir it all up.
It might take a few tries to make it to your liking!
I should say that this isn't my recipe but it's incredible!! Can't wait to try it!!
