OOh god where to begin? Where to end? and more importantly where to bloody start! So Christmas is well and truly out the way and thank goodness because I don’t know about anyone else but I for one was ready to crack on with getting back into the swing of things.

It’s probably because I am loving my new job at the moment but also because (and don’t shoot me for this) in my eyes Christmas drags on a bit. Those people that say, ‘all that work for just one day’ make me laugh, how is it ‘just one day’? More like about three weeks, sure there is only one ‘Christmas Day’ but that doesn’t mean to say that at the end of that day the trees miraculously disappear and the decorations carry themselves up to the loft, nor does it mean that the weather starts to warm up, the foods gone and the house is completely back to normal. If you’re like me then you still end up having traces of Christmas hanging around until about July. I have still got 5 presents to give out, the Christmas decorations are littering the spare room and naturally I have followed my old age tradition of not sending out all the cards I wrote. Personally find it hard to shake Christmas off completely and can only really do this if I have a distraction, and this year my prayers were answered and my distraction came in the form of Celebrity Big Brother!

Firstly can I just state how beautiful a person Preston is? Is he not one of the most gorgeous people you’ve ever seen? I was talking to a friend about it and she made a valid point when I mentioned that I love him.. ‘Oh my god Me too, him in them Glasses er hello… Who looks good in glasses..? Preston that’s who!!’ and she’s right! The boy can wear no wrong in my eyes and my mates by the sound of it! As for the rest of the reprobates in the house here is my opinion of them all. I feel sorry for Jodie Marsh, she was bullied, we interviewed her at my new job and she is really nice, and yea we did ask ‘how could you have thought peoples perceptions of you would change if you kept talking about sex’ she said that ‘she must have talked about it twice a day in a 24 hour period but they just kept putting it in the edit’ she said that Pete ‘the freak’ Burns was the worst, I can imagine! Oh no one needs to picture him having sex, I wonder how he kisses? Have you seen him eat? Grim! I think Jodie was severely bullied and I hope when the ‘witches of Eastwick’ (Jodie’s words not mine) look back on it they feel ashamed of themselves, she will come out on top after this though and get the last laugh so its all good. Michael Barrymore shouldn’t’ even be there and I am so against him that I am actually not going to comment about him at all.

George Galloway is my second worse person, its extremely worrying that the MP for Bethnal Green is purring like and cat and licking his hands, its even more disturbing that he is donned as ‘the good looking MP’. Pete Burns looks like a character out of Bo selcta, Rula looks and dresses like she about to walk on stage and perform ‘the dieing’ scene in Macbeth, everything she does is soo OTT! Dennis Rodman reminds me of our dog before he had his balls cut off but ironically with that nose ring he looks like an actual Bull and for god sake send in a tailor, his trousers and continually having a fight with his ankles. Tracy is going for the ‘Barbie Doll’ persona and tries to act like ‘candy’ but to be honest there is something demonic about her thus actually reminding me more of the bride of chuckie than Barbie, she looks and sounds like she could kill! Maggot is a bore surely there are better people in Goldie looking chain cause at the moment he’s more oldie acting pain! Faria is famous for shagging, I wanted to ask Jodie Marsh, when everyone stood up and performed ‘why they were famous for’ pieces’ – what did she do because they didn’t show it? I reckon she started dry humping the sofa whilst wearing and England kit and holding a football. I can’t think what else she could have done, can you?

So that’s my view on Big Brother housemates, oh god I nearly forgot Chantelle.. very very sweet I really like her and I want her to win. If I was her I would have been shitting it when I was lying and when she had to sing that song, poor girl! She did well!

Anyway before this whole piece is taken up with Big Brother I shall stop there believe it or not I do actually have a life outside of BB but only just! I have not been out massively lately a couple of local ones but you know what it’s like in January everyone’s skint and its all a bit of an anti climax really. I had a wicked New Year, I have just done a review on it so you can read it on The Loop soon.

I also had a good time at Warehouse last Saturday, it was the first time I had been there for ages. I was so worried at one point though, I put my bag down when I was having a boogie and when I went back to get it had gone! Naturally I thought it had been stolen but I was so lucky because someone had handed it in, how sweet it that? I was soo happy I must have kissed the girl about 30 times, in the end she was looking a bit scared! So apart from Warehouse I have been working manically and having girlie nights in and trying to stick to my New Years resolution. Its funny because I never ever make resolutions but this year I knew there was something that I had to change and the start of the New Year was the incentive I needed. I have decided that I am going to stop gossiping about people if someone tells me something about someone else I am going to try my hardest not to pass comment or get involved. Right I will let you know how that is going in due course but in the meantime try and get through January and use it as a ‘doing month’ getting things done sorted and on its way, if you are consciously pushing and motivating yourself then you will welcome January next year, that’s what I have been doing and I set my self one thing a day to do that way its easy to make progress.

Until next time from a very motivated Miss Essex and The City I will catch up soon!
