Skyrim.

Is the best thing since sliced people. It literally is as good as Oblivion,maybe better.

It's weird, I can take down a dragon with my bow but as soon as the spiders come, I run for the hills! Typical Imperial woman.

It's probably not doing wonders for my social life, but hey, never liked 'em anyway!

Back in real life, my stomach has been upset for like four days now, really getting on my nerves. I feel hungry all the time, it's sore to touch and I want to puke but it won't come out. My stomach is really not doing its job properly. I even compromised and ate an apple today!

Bear's resorted to waking me at 6am with face licks, or more specifically, eye ball licks. So I'm going to get in bed for some nice, unconscious slumber.

Toodles! X

Afternoon :D

Had a really good weekend, tired out now, even two days later! :D

But that's not what's on my mind, the things that are on my mind are:

SKYRIM is out on the 11th and I don't have the money to buy it! What in the God's name am I going to do?! D: I can't stop thinking about it. It's going to be AWESOME. Like seriously awesome :O I need to save all my money to get people's presents for Xmas. Pissing nobbers!! XD

and the second thing is that Fenris on DragonAge 2 is really over-rated. He's a bitch to make happy when you're trying to be a good person! Doing everything I would do and he moans and moans. Doesn't seem to mind the flirting though, typical.

 Alistair on DA1 was waaaayyy easier to seduce because he was a nice person too XD

Oh dear Lord.

Quit smoking day 3:

I don't know why but everyone seems to be in a bad mood when I need them to be in a good mood. I don't know if it's my patience has lowered because I'm stressed or if people are doing it on purpose because I'm trying hard not to have a fag <_< 

But I think I've figured out what turns normal people into murders.....lack of NICOTINE!

Have you noticed...

Have you noticed....that when you're on the computer and reading/doing something interesting and someone talks to you, you agree with everything they say without even realising what you've agreed to?!

I've been saying 'yes' to mum all day and I've ended up with 2 cups of tea, an apple and a thousand bonfire toffee sweets?! I really need to listen. She;s still doing it, hope I haven't admitting killing someone or something....too late now...just smile Nik, just smile....

Bear xD

Tuesday in the life of Bri- err I mean Nik.

Had a lovely birthday yesterday. Can't believe I'm 25 yet I still get asked for ID! Which leads me to believe there is no positives to come with age....unless you have awesome interest on your savings account, but that's neither here nor there...

So thanks to everyone who made my day special, especially mum, dad, Ben and our Shirl :)

On a separate note: I really wanna get into writing again when I find the time and relax again. I miss it. It's just figuring out what I want to write besides these monotonous blogs xD

I love horror so I'm assuming it be that, unless I scare myself too much to write it...like last time...only I could do that...

I also miss painting, but I need a muse there too.

Oh! And before I'm done. Imagine this: you're going a walk on an old pit and you see a man walking alone near the pond and a bike abandoned in the gorse bushes near us.

Then a police helicopter flies unusually low overhead and the odd man runs our way and just disappears out of sight....yep, I cried too...

Birthday!

Had a good birthday today, went shopping with my boyfriend and he treated me to a meal. Spent all my birthday money very quickly!

So now I'm back at home watching TV with Ben and Bear :) can't wait to try out my new games tomorrow!

It's been a while since I've had such a good time :)

LOL.

I actuallyjust heard a motorbike that sounded like a wet beer fart. It was foony. Worrying, but foony.

Odd.

Well I go down to mum and dad's for a bit whilst Ben is fishing. Open the door and there's no one home. Then I go in the kitchen to find a cup with half made tea in it that's still warm and a full cup of tea on the table. WEIRD.

So I proceeded to get dad's laptop and use it for Facebook while I wait for the aliens to return my parents. I hope they haven't been zapped with a plasma rifle or something. How inconvenient that would be! 

Good afternoon peoples of Blogger.

Just watching Mock the Week and relaxing after the migraine attacked me last night. I was SO ill and in pain, it took my painkillers two hours to help me. So today I've been basically zombified.

I am now on muscle relaxants for my neck spasms so no more pain! Feel like a completely different person now I can move the neck! xD

Anyhoo, the flat's coming on well, I get 2 carpets Tuesday or even three depending on the money so it's actually gonna have a soft floor! xD haha. Nearly done the painting, just the awful stairs to do, but I'm leaving that last since my arms aren't that long xD

I'm trying not to turn into a typical woman and start moaning about all the housework I have to do now I live alone so it's back to gaming. Two new games: DragonAge and Dead Space 2. Both are looking good. Little more addicted to DA at the moment so I want to spend my time on that first and then put all my attention into Dead Space to get the real effect xD It is scary though, bloody nerve-wracking game.

I LOVE IT :D

What a day.

Firstly, after my 3 months of neck pain, decided enough was enough and finally went to the doctors. Got diagnosed with muscle spasms and given muscle relaxants for a month to see if it works. (By diagnosed I mean that he grabbed hold of my neck and pushed it into 20 different positions while listening to me protest in pain xD)

And then I just get home to find two children throwing rocks at a wood pigeon that was tangled in fishing line and literally stuck in the weeds and had killed a few fish by being nobbers. So we told them to pee off and I told them if I ever saw them again I'd report them to the RSPCA. I pulled the bird out of the weeds and we cut the line.

It took us ages to free the wire from around it's wing, it was literally strangling it and very very sore. But (with a little protest from the pigeon from being handled by big, ugly, featherless humans) after a bit of a hassle, we managed to untangle him. He was wet and very scared and we had to put him in a safe spot to dry out but I think he'll be fine, I'll go check on him tomorrow see if he's flown off :)

Bloody kids these days, honestly. Some of them need castrating.

Quote of the day.

I now live in my own flat! :D
it's been absolutely mad moving all the stuff up, my feet are killing and I haven't had chance to eat yet but BenDave is going to the Chinese as we speak :D gonna have a bath and then get off up to the pub for a bloody good drink! would like to thank Ben, Shirley, Paul, mum and dad an michael for being amazingly supportive during this week and especially today, you awesome fewkers!

My week.

Well I've moved house! Got myself a beautiful flat up the street from here, lovely sized rooms etc.

Just got my bed and a few boxes of ladies crap to shift and I'm all moved. Once the carpets are moved in I'll move the fishtank and show Jeff, Logan and Bill their new home xD It's an awesome place, I'm allowed pets etc as normal :D

Ben's trying to convince me to get a Husky once we're settled. And knowing me, I'll give in hahaha. Monday is when I get all the paints etc. So that's painting day. Just gotta pick my colours and stuff ^_^

It's so awesome how quickly it's happened, I feel genuinely lucky to not only have a place, but have one in the place I wanted it, it's really hard to get a place around here.

I have a great family, great place to live and an even better boyfriend! <3

Love you baby

NX

Yes!!

finally got my phone call back! good news :D

I'm a happy girl today, things are looking up!

And the weather is awesome xD hot like the Caribbean, unfortunately I live in the Midlands so no sea but that's okay, I have a bath tub xD

makes me really sleepy though *yawn* might have a catnap.....

[Posted with iBlogger from my iPhone]

What an awesome weekend!

It was great. Went out to the pub for a 'quiet one' and ended up spending more than usual (xD) and then the next day, BenDave treated me to a lovely meal and dessert :') We spent like five hours looking around the market stalls for old awesome stuff, it was lovely. The best weekend I've had :D

Ohh! New painting up folks, here it is...

Nik says...

"If it rains tomorrow I'll scream."
And now it's raining.

So lemme try this....if I get a million pound tomorrow I'll scream!!!

Feeling a little..

under-appreciated today.

And I just remembered the weird dream I had last night xD

I had a dream about Rob Kazinski! For the first time in a very long time. When I used to have a crush on him xD

He was secretly living in my village and no one knew who he was but me, so I stalked him a little. And then helped him fight his way through a battle with the Mafia (who for some reason were out to get him).....I won't go into the rest but he was very appreciative xD

GET HIM BACK ON EASTENDERS! XD

Bloody dogs!

Well it was a Sunday so I thought I'd get all the crap done that I usually don't want to e.g. the fish-tank and sorting out my pc. So I did it. But it wasn't as nice as I thought...

While I was cleaning the filter in the sink, my dog Pip came and stood next to me. So I stroked him, thinking he was coming for affection. And as he walked out of the room and my foot started to feel warm and wet, I realised that he'd actually pissed on my foot! Charming! I had to wash my feet in the bath and I will never wear those socks again. Dad found it extremely amusing.

Nothing much to say today, everything (besides the urination) is going smoothly. Wish I'd get my call-back soon though or else I'll go mad(der) xD

NX

Good start...

to the day this morning, got a very encouraging phonecall :D

And I've been waiting for my return call all day only to find that every time the phone rings, it's the same guy asking me if I want to buy some kind of pointless computer software. I tried telling him no, then I don't own a computer and bugger off but none of those worked. So this time I'm going to tell him that I'm dead. See if that makes him go away xD

And today...

I am in a very good mood. Hopefully what I've been waiting for all week is about to happen, should find out some time this week. It looks like it's going my way so I'm keeping my hopes up. Things are getting better :)
                       --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On another topic, my little dog is starting to worry me, he's been a bit restless today and making a lot of groaning noises. He's 14 years old and showing signs of dementia. Trying my best to keep him calm and get him to go to sleep but he starts shaking for no reason. Bless him, I know dog's act strange when they're old so I'm trying not to worry too much. He did just come in my room, fart, and then go back out again so his sense of humour hasn't been touched by age HAHA. Little sod xD

                    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just finished Gray Matter, really enjoyed that game, the story was lovely and I got a good week or so's play out of it. Can't afford any more games at the moment so I'm playing STALKER still. It's a good game, get's a bit repetitive having to keep walking backwards and forwards to different places, it wouldn't be so bad if the loading times weren't horrendous. I still stick to my point that it could have used a 'fast travel' option. I've been through the same area a 100 times, I don't need to do it again xD

The mutants on it are weird. The Brain Squasher or whatever its called is pretty freaky. Hopefully not gonna see many more of those O.O

And I get really confused with ammo types on this game, if ammo didn't weight anything, it wouldn't matter. But I always end up with thousands of bullets for a gun I don't have and none for my bloody Desert Eagle! Which kicks ass xD

Anyway, I'm off to bed now I've had a good blog, night night!

NX

STALKER PT 2.

Hehehe, think I'm gonna do a little modification in the configuration files to solve my problem. It's not cheating, that's why they made them xD

STALKER.

is getting good. I'm loving it, it's so lonely and weird.

Only downsides are the fact that you can't fast travel back to your trader and walking takes AGES when you're packed full off bloody awesome guns! ;) Which leads me to my second downside, I WANT TO CARRY MORE BLOODY AWESOME GUNS!!

When heaven sent you...

Wednesday Times.

Well I've done it! After two days of sitting behind a sewing machine, I've made myself a new skirt with a lace trim! It is good for a first go, if I say so myself :) I'm going to wear it when I'm out Friday night because I am pleased with my creation! xD

I love having a new hobby, something challenging to get my teeth into. The only problem is the noise, it drives my mum crazy! HAHA.

And on a slightly irritated note: I, Nicola JB have managed to sprain my whole leg and ankle whilst sat on a chair! O.o

I was just sat with my legs under me, turned around and then the whole thing went numb for a few minutes and then the horrid, annoying sprain pain came through it. I'm sat in a bandage that Ben put on for me right now, to get help with the pain. ONLY I could do that while not moving!! HAHA.

Accident prone isn't even the word for me xD

NX

Ooh ooh! Nearly forgot to add that I've been replaying STALKER: Shadow Of Chernobyl with my boyfriend today and even though it's bugged and glitched to pieces, I can't help but be addicted to it. There's just something about it that makes me want to keep playing. I do like the lack of music, it does make you feel really isolated as I can imagine a post-nuclear disaster area would feel if it were crawling with mutant piggys. xD

So, if you're gonna play it, maybe get the update patch first (like I'm doing now xD) and have a bash! And let me know if you can get the brightness to stay UP on your game. Mine keeps returning to default which is too dark xD

NX again xD

Wonderful weekend.

With my boyfriend, feeling lots better and having more energy has helped out with raising my mood. We've had such a laugh!

Finished Singularity with him yesterday and we both agree it's a bloody awesome game. Like a mixture of Bioshock, Dead Space, Fallout, Timeshift and loads of other good games. We really enjoyed it!

N X

Nik the therapist....sort of...

For the ladies who have been moaning about having childish blokes...Immaturity is a double edged sword. it's nice to have someone down to earth and funny and light-hearted but then again, if a guy doesn't take anything seriously then he's gonna be pretty much useless in a relationship ain't he? plus it's not nice to feel like someones mother xD

it's okay to sit there and roll your eyes at them (like we do xD) but you chose him. A balance is good between fun and serious. no one wants a stick in the mud OR someone who seems to want to be 12 forever. Cos they're both annoying little shits xD

so...my advice is, ditch the boy and get a poster of Gerard Butler instead...you know what I'm saying ;)

Bit too much info? ;)

Had to come off the contraceptive pill again as the migraines were getting frequent and really painful. So much so that my hand went numb on three occasions and I couldn't get out of bed. I've stopped taking it for the past two days and now I feel fantastic!

All my energy is back and no pains at all. No neck pain, back pain,  no numb hands or head and I just feel good! Don't think my already messed up hormones likes the added ones from contraceptive.

 And aura migraines are apparently a major cause of most women having strokes or aneurysms below 30. Scary stuff. 

So I'm not taking any chances with mine, I shall have a look at non-hormonal methods of contraception. 

Thought I'd write this here because it might help other people with the same problem.

So if you are on the pill AND smoke or getting aura migraines or numb limbs, don't risk it. Its not worth the health risks at all. 

Funny thing I saw on Facebook today...

BBC News- "Mobiles 'may cause brain cancer'"

Bloody Hell.

frightened myself to death this morning!

A bird squawked outside my window and woke me up so scared that I had a numb hand. then me being me, I thought I wad having a stroke and started an hour long, bloody awful panic attack!

bloody numb hand, gonna go to the doctors next week as recommended by a friend just to make sure it's not neurological...and maybe tell them to knock some sense in.

So tired of panic attacks. especially at half 6 in the morning. It has literally exhausted me. well you hyperventilate, having a racing heart and have adrenaline pump through your body for an hour whilst crapping yourself and see how great you feel! I can literally not clench a fist I'm that tired. So I'm gonna have another nap and hopefully the demon bird won't do it again xD

on a lighter subject: my dad hath given me a laptop so I now have a working spacebar ! Oh the joy!

Nik VS Migraine.

Woke up with the bloody thing again. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the aura that blinds me. It's so frustrating.

2 Cocodamols managed to get rid of it, though I've been like a zombie most of the day while Ben makes his tarp thingy (or whatever it's called xD)

Literally have had no energy whatsoever. Glad it's bed-time now, gonna carry on reading Stephen King's Cell. Which I highly recommend if you like survival horror books, very unique and freaky! Although don't read it before bed if you want to sleep at night, you will not be able to just read a chapter then go to bed!

Gamer notes: Been playing The Lost Crown for a few days now and I'm seriously enjoying it! Very freaky ghost-hunting point and click style game. You get to use ghost hunting equipment a lot and it's very enjoyable...little bit Grudge-style sometimes :D

But remember to keep a notebook with you if you're gonna play this game, you'll need it!!

NX

Crofty...

Just a little update to say that the new Tomb Raider screenshots are looking sexy! Cannot wait for it! Being the massive TR nerd that I am :D

Tell me these aren't!

I see a bow!! And I liiiiike it!

NX

Oh one last thing...

New hair folks! Bright red it is! ;D 

It's brighter than this but my camera sucks serious ass :) 

EDIT: Ahhh much better :) 

Good afternoon people.

I just finished playing DarkFall: Lost Souls, a point and click adventure game. Think it's the 3rd of the DarkFall series (I came to this conclusion after seeing the massive '3' on the loading screens...).

And I just wanted to say that if you like point and click style games, that involve a lot of investigative work and puzzles, then this is a must play. Not only does it keep you thinking throughout the game but it's pretty scary too!

The atmosphere and noises you hear throughout the game are honestly scary. It kept me on my toes for the past few days. I can also guarantee you'll be stuck fast a few times. You really do have to think before you get past certain parts, earlier in the game more-so.

I'm not going to delve too much in to the story because I might spoil it for you, all I will say is that it takes place in the same abandoned town as the previous DarkFalls. And you play a very haunted and troubled investigator who, by fate or just unluckiness has somehow ended up back here, on the hunt for the little lost Amy.

I'm awfully sad I've finished it, it wasn't short but it was literally one of those games you never want to end!

Now...looking for my next game, which I think is going to be The Lost Crown. A ghost hunting game :D

Okay.

A little bit of fun here for you guys. I maybe a little immature at finding this funny but it's kept me amused for about half an hour xD

This website translates your English into different dialects e.g. cockney, Elmer Fudd, jive talk, pig latin, moron, hacker speak and Redneck. VERY funny. For an example, I shall now translate my first sentence for you in Redneck xD

A li'l bit of fun hyar fo' yo' guys. ah mebbe a li'l immature at findin' this hyar funny but it's kepp me amoosed fo' about ha'f an hour xD

Haha, have fun! xD 

N X

Moan.

I have my boyfriends cold. It's awful. It has been accompanied by a lovely migraine with an aura. That's the worst part for me, those bloody auras. Very painful! So I'm sat here thinking about writing my Last Will and Testament. (In other words, I'm feeling sorry for myself.)

And a little gamer part here:
Played Hal;f-Life EP1 and now on EP2 with my boyfriend and wpe're on the final battle against both hunters and striders, trying to protect the base from blowing up. The WORST part of the game for me, as not only am I suicidal with cars, but also with anything that blows up...luckily my boyfriend is a bit better at that part than I. Unless it involves doors...

Half Life 2.

Is done, loved the story. But my favourite thing about the whole game (besides having real actors as characters and amazing voice work) is DOG. The robotic well, dog, that Alyx owns. He looks and moves more like a monkey but he has his own kennel and everything.

So now it's Episode One. Not looking forward to the underground level which is really dark and a thousand Combine zombies attack you a once -_- But someone's gotta save the world.

New Hair Bitches! xD

Dyed it bright red, took me 2 hours to do but it's finally done! I love it! xD

You can nearly see me in the dark! HAHA

N

Half Life 2 Screenie.

The ATeam!! xD

Rawr!

My drawing of a tiger picture that BD bought me :)

His name is Nanook (Inuit for polar bear haha)

PS Bad Quality due to being a crappy mobile camera.

N

And I'm back :)

Got bored of Tumblr and all the random pictures of make-up and sweets that seems to be all that ever gets posted.

So I'm back here xD

Things are going good. Still with BD and we are doing awesomely well, we seem to be really compatible, hardly ever argue and spend  a lot of time together. Even when we're not together, we're usually texting xD Spend a lot of time fishing and walking. Or just being prats together...

Gonna add a game blog sometime after this one as I have been doing a bit of that again ;D

N

Right, this is to someone.

I would like to say to a certain someone, whom I know reads these, because he has nothing else much to do. So here it is.

STOP talking about me to people because they come straight back and tell me....and WHY are you still talking about me anyway? Nobody cares buddy, nobody cares....

My latest artwork :)
