TV!
I'm going to talk about TV now! YAY!
So, I finished rewatching 'Sherlock' today with my family. I can't express how pissed we all are that we have to wait so long to find out what happened in the last episode. But anyway, I really love 'Sherlock' but I always feel really stupid after watching it. My brother was telling me how he always is trying to notice more about people after watching it, and when he can't find anything, he feels dumb, and that's exactly what I do and feel! It's sometimes weird how alike we are in things.
The next show I'll talk about is 'Merlin'. I can't express how much I love that show. Maybe a reason I like it so much is that it's different from the known legend. To be honest, at the beginning all the differences annoyed me, but now I really like that it's unique. Another reason I like it so much is probably Colin Morgan's eyes...and smile. But even if his eyes weren't so perfect, I would still love 'Merlin' because it's just got everything and amazingly good.
The last show I'll talk about is 'Skins'. I started watching it about three years ago. And, now, I'm going to rewatch the first few seasons (probably). I also liked the US Skins - not as much as the original though, but enough to be upset that it was cancelled.
I hope you don't think I'm too addicted to TV after reading this. I honestly do like to read and do other things with me like, okay? ;)

Eating and Drinking Is Good
I'm getting really bad at remembering to blog. I forgot two times already this month, and I was going to forget again today. But, I think I'll allow myself to forget a few times. It's not like anything will happen if I forget to write a blogpost one day, or will it?
I actually don't have much time to write this, but let me write a few reasons why today was awesome:
1) I started watching Season 4 of Merlin (sorry Sher ;) )
2) I got the results to some my tests that I recently took and they were good.
3) I read while using the exercise machine.
4) I ate a lot of crackers.
5) I drank coffee.
6) I watched some 'answerly' videos.
Okay, that's all. Just so you know, today wasn't an exceptionally awesome day, I just though I'd try to think of some good things that happened. And yes, drinking coffee and eating crackers are good things.

Songs and Memory
Having a song stuck in your head is a completely normal thing. There are times when I have songs stuck in my head for weeks and weeks, but normally they're songs that I like and that I listen to a lot. So, it's quite understandable that they'd be stuck in my head.
I've just read an article on bbc all about why music gets stuck in our heads. The article was not only about songs that we've recently heard being stuck in our heads, but also why we suddenly remember songs we haven't heard in a long time which then become stuck in our head. It said that normally something we see or experience reminds us of that song.
So, for example, if, as a kid, you always used to listen to a certain song when you did your math homework, maybe when you have kids and are helping them with their math homework, you'll remember that song. And then that song will get stuck in your head.
But we are always making associations like this with other things, like food. Normally when I come home, I make a cheese sandwich and watch Merlin as I eat this sandwich. Now, no matter what time it is, if I start to watch Merlin I start to imagine a cheese sandwich. I can even smell it sometimes.
I'm not really going to get into food associations though; for now, I'll stick with music. I don't think many people really realise what has triggered their memory to remember the songs that are stuck in their heads, but it really is interesting. Next time a song that I haven't listened to is playing over and over again in my head, I'll be sure to try to remember what made me remember that particular song.
The way our memory works is very strange. We can remember experiences to trigger songs, and yet we can't remember the things we want to remember like the dates of the historical events we're being tested on and what not. I think if our memory didn't work the way it do though, life wouldn't be as interesting, would it?

Hi!!!
Uhm, so today was pretty fun. I don't really know what else to say about it.
I have absolutely nothing to talk about now, except for the fact that I want to go on the roof and play guitar but I'm stuck with the dogs. I think I'll call my brother to come and take them. Or not. I'll see.

Short and Not So Sweet
Did I write anything yesterday? I don't think I did. Oops.
Tomorrow my school is having International Day, an my class is Japan. I'm going to dress up as an anime school girl, which is just a normal school girl. XP
Anyway, I'm busy doing stuff for tomorrow and I'm going to play ping-pong later. So, sorry for the short post.

My Sister and Me
So, I've been asked to write about the similarities between my sister, Nadeen, and me. Now, if you don't know us you won't understand why someone would ask me such a thing. I mean, sisters are supposed to be similar, and most of the time you can tell when people are sisters by how they act or look. But with Nadeen and me, it's different. No one can ever tell we're sisters because we neither act nor look the same. Most people think I'm playing a prank on them when I tell them we're sisters. Nevertheless, we do have similarities.
The first one is that we both have a tendency to worry too much. I'm better at hiding my worry than she is, but that doesn't mean that I don't worry. For example, if we're walking with our brother and he goes a different way from us, we'll both start to worry and call him frantically, even though he's old enough to take care of himself.
Another thing we have in common is that we're both responsible. When someone gives us a task, we like to carry it out completely. The difference between us here is that I'm more of a perfectionist in myself, while Nadeen tends to stress more when she feels like she can't carry something out for someone else. In a situation like that, I tend to be more relaxed (not a hundred percent relaxed though).
Also, we both tend to be on the kind side. Nadeen is, of course, kinder than I am, but she tends to be harsher when she talks to people because she's learnt that being rude and harsh is how you become popular. Of course, this is wrong, but what can we do.
And finally, we are both not popular. Not that that matters, of course. It's just a similarity. :P
There are more, but I've been writing this for a while, and I want to go. Oh, and in terms of looks, we have almost the same hair colour, but hers is lighter. That's pretty much the only thing we have in common in terms of looks...
