I didn’t want to leave the Hobnob hanging, so here is a more “perfected” look by moi!
I bet you'd be scared if you saw me walking down the street
I just got this via email and it made me giggle (or actually, laugh out loud).
Rob tha Hob tha Gangsta (knob? HAHA!)
I was sitting on the bus on my way home and this guy & girl (who didn’t know each other) were sitting in front of me. The girl was fairly attractive, and you could tell by the way she acted that she kind of knew she was. The guy next to her could not stop staring at her through out the whole journey and after a while, even I felt a bit uncomfortable. This whole scenario very randomly got me thinking about something:
WHAT DO MEN REALLY WANT?
What I mean is, what do they want when it comes to the opposite sex?
I know that it is a very difficult question, because it comes down to personal taste and preferences and so many other things. So I am sure there isn’t a definite answer, but I still can’t help asking myself.
Some people may say that guys usually are pretty shallow, but in all fairness, so are women. And I have seen my share of “ugly” girls with good looking boyfriends, of course he might have found her attractive in one way or another, but it just proves that not all guys are shallow.
There is so much pressure on women nowadays, both from society and from the media, to look and act and be a certain way, and I am just questioning if men actually like these types of women. I mean, yes fair enough, we all have fantasies, but do we want our fantasies in real life too? Obviously these fantasies have no personality, so we can dream away and mould them into being just the way we want them to be. But can you or would you (try to) do that in real life?
I am just a bit conflicted, because I have a lot of male friends, and usually, the girls they fantasise about do not actually match the girls they end up having relationships with in real life. But then I guess preferences and ideals and taste change with age and with maturity as well.
I don’t know… This might have been a bit random. I am just a bit frustrated, because I don’t get it. I don’t get why we are being told that we have to look a certain way and act a certain way in order for the opposite sex like us. Especially when taste is individual. Of course, there is a “general taste”, but I get the feeling that the general taste of society is a refection of our fantasies and not reality. Or is it the whole “You want what you can’t have” scenario, where in the end, you just have to settle for what you can get?
The more I think about it, the more frustrated and angry I get.
What is it that you want?
Or maybe more importantly: do we actually know what we want?
Say it with a song…
Morning. I am sitting at work feeling like a zombie. Had the worst sleep EVER last night and I feel rather rough today. I am just hoping it won’t rain. That would be the cherry on top of it all.
Apart from a horrible sleep the weekend was ok. Was feeling rather shit Saturday. Not due to the Quantic gig on Friday, but more in the line of stomach pains. Sunday was nice up until a certain point. Went and saw Sophie and had a proper catch up/gossip session. And now it is another week and I need to get on with things…
I hope this super duper extra coffee will wake me up or I might just have to take a nap under my desk. Maybe.
UPDATE:
They have made the video of Gabriel private, so we can’t watch it I’m afraid. But I am trying to sort it out, maybe they will be kind enough to let me have it up here for you guys to see.

Hello! The things in this post were initially only meant for my mum, but I kind of wanted to share it with all of you too since it is (very) cool and it literally put the biggest smile on my face (and maybe some happy tears in my eyes, maybe…)
You see, I am not the only person who has been in Australia recently. One good friend and ex boyfriend of mine, Gabriel, was there for quite a few months and got involved with this really amazing “project” called Skate Australia. If I understood it right, it is basically a bunch of very talented longboarders who went on a road trip with their longboards last summer (Australian summer), and turned the whole experience into a documentary film. I have had a look at the videos and I was completely blown away! I am so proud of him and when I saw this video today I just had to post it here (Yes mum, you have to watch the video because Gabriel is in it!)
Anyways, I really hope you guys check out their website and also the videos + the video above! The videos are much better than the crappy pictures I posted from my visit in Oz and I really think you would enjoy them!
Right, I should get ready for bed. Hope you’ve had a nice day! x
Good morning my little sunshines!
