Rant time..

Hiii! Recently in the media, various things have come to my attention...When I was in the supermarket yesterday I glanced across the magazine section and noticed a couple of stories that bothered me. I don't usually post about weight related stuff as I don't want to influence people into thinking the wrong things. Yes I do catwalking and modelling and people often say things about me being skinny. Each to their own and all entitled to their opinion.
I would like to state that this post is not bias, not pinpointing anyone or trying to hurt anyone's feelings.

Now, we all know that catwalk models tend to be pretty skinny - that's the industries idea of fashion. Fair enough I think, there are also plus size modelling so it's not like its  only for certain people. But im that's not my point anyway.

I have saw in magazines articles about Kendall Jenner.. now these articles show pictures of what an Australian magazine have published and basically deemed her too fat for the runway.

  The cover of Famous magazine Photo: Famous

Yes the pictures show that she has signs of cellulite on the back of her legs. As you can see the picture on the right has better lighting and her skin looks fine, then on the left the lighting isn't so good and you can see cellulite. Reality check - Does everyone look good from every angle in any light 24/7.?

I've saw pictures of supermodels looking dreadful, but doesn't everyone at some point? Whats wrong with having days where you don't need to try? Or go out without any makeup on, hair tied up and wearing joggers? What is society when people cant be themselves? But hey, media need stories... I Googled some pics to prove how disgusting celebs can look, but what I came up with is things like drunk messes, and anyone can look a mess when they're drunk! Or greasy hair, bad makeup, surgery gone wrong, basically what other people perceive to be wrong. So I'm not going to post any pics to shame anyone because anyone can look a mess regardless of their 'social state'.

So while im on this topic, ive heard a song - all about the bass. Never heard of the singer before, the song is really catchy and I thinks its good that someone's singing about how they are confident being curvy. Its inspirational to many, I mean go ahead, parade and show that your proud of yourself however there is no need to put people down in the process. I'm talking about the things said in this song. For instance, a few quotes 

'I see the magazine workin' that Photoshop, We know that shit ain't real, C'mon now, make it stop'
'You know I won't be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll, So if that's what you're into then go ahead and move along'
'Go ahead and tell them skinny bitches that, No I'm just playing.'

These particular parts stand out. Being skinny myself, to be honest I find this song insulting. Its on TV that being curvy or bigger is fine, and so is being skinny or however you are. So when people sing songs like this? Yes people will take offence. And for one, I know that the majority of photoshoots I have done aren't even photo-shopped at all, and when they have been its editing the background etc, not my figure. I wouldn't have thought that would have been her intentions to insult people, then again why sing it then? This song is skinny shaming, and for one some people are naturally skinny, that doesn't make them a b!tch. Just like being large doesn't automatically mean they're lazy. 

We shouldn't be sending out messages to people that it's not okay to be skinny, it's been all over the news that the UK is increasingly becoming one of the countries with the most overweight people. However it's not okay to shame 'fat' people either. What is wrong with girls complimenting other girls? Why can't people just get along instead of firing off at people who have done no wrong? People won't be happy if everyone insults them, so why don't we compliment everyone and all help each other out?

What do you all think about all this? do you think its wrong to shame people like the magazines and songs like this have?

Random post at college

I'm at college today and I am bored, it's the last week of college before we are on our Christmas holidays so were playing games, making Christmas cards and doing nothing educational in general. If were just going to play games I may as well go home, I'd rather learn at college or there's no point in going! -.- Sooo I'm just going to do a random post and blab on about anything really :P

My mum brought me home a walnut whip on Sunday for looking after my little brother while my parents went Christmas shopping. I had no idea what one was, if you don't then there's a picture below

It had marshmallow stuff inside so I bit the walnut off at the top and stuck my tongue into the marshmallow... I got my flipping tongue stuck, it was like pulling my tongue in and I couldn't get it  back out! These things are dangerous, it's actually cut under my tongue and it's still sore! ahaa, telling people I got my tongue stuck in a walnut whip though -.- Hasn't anybody else done this?.. O.O

I put it in on Google to see what came up and some has actually put that there is a 'health and safety issue' of 'getting your tongue stuck in these - You can read it here

It's not the stupidest thing I've done though, I mean the amount of clumsy stuff I do is unbelievable! :P

I can't believe how close it is to Christmas! We put out tree up a little early this year

Before you ask, I decorated the tree... I put every single bauble on there and it looks very pretty ;)

Christmas for me has never been about the presents - of course I like them, I mean who doesn't? 

Christmas has always been about spending time with the family and close friends, that's what I love about Christmas. Even more so this year, my dad had a motorbike accident and was badly injured, this year M has been ill and fighting cancer. I hadn't said what M was ill from yet on this blog I just said she was poorly but now you no. I am so proud of both of them and so this Christmas I'm celebrating what I have already, not taking anything for granted. 

I still have to get my parents and my little brother presents, I'm not sure what to get them yet but I always get my mum something meaningful :)

I wish that all of you have a merry merry Christmas and a prosperous new year :D

To any of you out there that are poorly or no someone that's poorly, my thoughts and wishes are with you all

Have you got your Christmas decorations up? Have you done all your Christmas shopping? Are you looking forward to the new year? You can leave a random comment since this is a 'random post' ;)

London Business Trip

So this week I haven't been able to post because I was away in London on a business and tourism trip. Here's basically what we did...
My friend decided to go to sleep on the train, another was listen to her music and reading a newspaper, and the one next to me was talking on her phone for like the whole trip! Sooo I decided to start throwing tissue balls at my friend in front of me (I picked them up of course.. I'm not a litterer ;) when we got there we had to pull our suitcases to the hostel, at this point I wished I took a smaller suitcase because it weighed a flipping ton!

We went and dropped the bags off in London then all headed off into London Town, the teachers said we had until 4 when we had to meet them back at Kings Cross Train Station. We all split up into small groups and went off to do our own things, my friend was worried about getting lost... No need my friend ;) I come here on my own when I catwalk and that so I was pretty confident we wouldn't get lost. Instead of going round all of the shops we decided to take at many photos of yourself as we could. She's got a big flashy camera so it was like a photo shoot ahaa

As you can see, it was chucking it down with rain *Stupid Weather* and it was not good for my hair on the photos -.-
I had random people stopping and watching in a crowd and coming up to me asking if they could take a photo with me... I didn't no what to think really, I'm not use to talking to lots of strangers so I kind of avoided them *sorryyyy* O.o
I have so many photos from the London trip, but I guess I'll only upload one bease I don't want to make this post go on and on and on ;)

Some of my friends said they saw Luke Friend from X Factor in McDonald's on that Wednesday but didn't go up to him because he had someone with him... I would have gone and say hi if I saw him!

My teacher said she saw a supermodel having a photo shoot in the street, I didn't see either of them, or any famous people, Ohhh well :/

Now I'm from a tiny village so the view from the hostels' window.. Well I've never seen so many Chimneys in one place in my life! 

The beds were pretty small, the room had four of us in it and it didn't have it's own bathroom/toilet room it just had a sink in the middle of the room, I didn't like this.  

We ended up staying awake telling stupid stories in the room until about 2/3 in the morning and had to be up and getting ready for 6! We definitely wished we had of just gone to sleep :P 

I didn't book this hostel so I didn't have a choice, but I can safely say, I'm never staying in that place again :/

So that was me blabbing on about anything again ;) Please do join this blog (under the followers tab on the right near the top)
