I had a huge discussion/debate about whether girls are better than boys at sport.
Obviously there are some things women can do that men can't like walking/running/dancing in heels/stillettoes, just because the way our bodies are built and the way we condition ourselves. A female friend of mine said ' if you spend 3/4 hours in heels and can run without falling over in them you can do free running just because you have the balance ... I would love to see a boy run/ walk in heels without complaining he is crippled'. This attitude I think helps us break the gender barriers around spot for females.
I have noticed when a girl wants to partake in a masculine sport like Rugby or football she is considered a lesbian, but women need to break these sterotypes and embrace sport. Even if she ignores the homophobic gossip/ chants boys look on her like an object of sexual desire like male friend of mine said 'any girl who free runs is sexy and I would bang her any day'.
This lead to a rebuking from the girls and told him that that kind of attitude is demeaning and uncalled for as we are more than a set of breasts, we can do anything a boy can do and better sometimes.
Girls have a tendency to pick movements instinctively correctly, where as a boy will do it but in his own way the first time they are shown how to do something. This shows we can learn skills that boys would learn incorrectly.

Harry 'fucking shit' Potter
Yay finaly JK Rowling has put down that crusty biro of shite, and is never going to pen another Potter book. Thank god, seriously anyone who read those should be ashamed of themselves, (I know I am) and anyone who still fanatises of writing the next one, do us a favour - DON'T!!!!!!!!!!!
Warner brothers should stop making the films too as they are a poor representation of the shit, It went from solid poop to diarrhea immediately. I even said to my kid sister 'Even I wouldn't wipe my arse with that' and 'I can do better than that and I don't even have the experience or qaulifacations'.
Anyone want to burn thier 1st edition shite or other edition crap to a burnning pile. Please notify me if you have any other crappy novels you want to burn (not including the goths favourite - The Bible).
Mucho Jazzle Love x

Things that really irratate me
I'm in school just trying to work and am slowly getting annoyed by some boy.
He just won't stop making annoying hmmming noises and grunts through his nose and twitches incessantly and when I ask him to stop he just shakes his head and gives me a dirty look as though to say 'who are you to tell me to shut up fool?'
Here are a list of more things that irratate me
1. When people have an odd number of Weetabix
2. People leave used teabags in empty drunk cups
3. Children screaming in school corridors
4. soulja boy and any other song with catchy lyrics and dodgy dance routines
5.Boys who think that girls can't do anything like free running, because its too masculine
6. Cold Mountian, too many pages for a pointless story, It can be told in 1 sentence!
7. Teachers who don't explain the homework or tell you when its due
8. Junk email in your inbox, HELLO MSN - SORT IT OUT
9. Not being able to find a book in the library - and them not being able to order it
10. People who are late and don't pick up thier phone or respond to texts - Frodo sort it out
My list could drag on for eternity but I won't bore you to death lol

Emo: The Modern Hamlet
My all knowing mother, asked me to help her understand the newest youth social group - The EMO!
This social group was first noticeable as a fashion clique in 2003 and behave basically like a modern Hamlet, depressed, middle/upper class, angst ridden and have everything the need but say they have nothing to live for.
How to spot an EMO-
Emo guys usually have shaggy hair, that covers a majority of their forehead and eyes. Much like the girls, they like to dye their hair dark colors. Especially black. When it comes to their clothing, emo boys usually sport under sized clothing. A lot of them will wear girls pants. When it comes to their shirts, they like the vintage look. Much like the girls again, emo boys like to have facial piercings. Emo girls hair is shorter than what must girls have. They like to dye their hair black and cut their bangs uniquely. Jewelry is a big part of their fashion. Body piercings, and facial piercings are very common among girls. Girls and boys tend to purchase all their clothing at thrift store. However, many emo kids will make their own clothing or mod their own clothes to fit they look they are going after. Girls and boys that are emo share the same taste when it comes to fashion. Glassed which are horn rimmed are quite popular, along with bags cluttered with patches. They also wear suspiciously long sleeves/fingerless gloves to hide the scars where they cut themselves.
The largest EMO gathering site in London would be Camden Lock, a more happy version of EMO is the scene kid.
They are the opposite of the 1960's hippies, as this is our generation the future is depressing for us, no hope or chance of a youth revolution.

Things that I have learnt this week so far!
Lets start with Monday, I went out with some school friends and got REALLY drunk to the point I have 3 holes in my back (apparently from acting like a needy spoilt four year old) and had a killer hangover, this was from drinking too much gin. I was up all night vomiting as you do and Tuesday my lovely mother packed me on my way to school to cope with it. Lovely!
Wednesday I was thinking about relationships and the word 'wifey'. For me I would hate to be someones 'wifey' because I hate to be held down with loyalty, I can't do long term relationships because I get bored easily. I know how people say its just a phase and I will grow out of it, but at nearly 18 I think not and life is for having fun.

Barcleycard world free running championships
It was amazing, death defying and down right unbelievable! The highlights show some of the best and the worst of the show, it was great because being VIP there was free alcohol and my poetry was displayed alongside some dodgy photos in which I appear looking like I have a huge ass or checking out the tutors. The poetry was fantastic, the other poets wrote some amazing stuff but graphically mine was all over the place and communicated the subject well.
Pip Anderson was amazing, shame he didn't get first place but England did us proud by gaining second and third place and and Jenx Jenkins received best trickster. Well done to him bearing in mind he was the youngest contestant aged 15. Livewire was too good to be given second place in my opinion. Shame Cali (my favourite) didn't get through to the semi finals, but he really set the bench mark with the body popping.
I know this sounds superficial but man I have to say it - Tracuers are hot and sexy! Hopefully in the next championships there will be some of the female community represented (only 2% of the free running community is female), me and my fellow female poets semi joked that we will train for a year and enter. I say semi joke as i really want to enter but i need to train properly alongside studying and applying to university.

There will be an one hour show on SkySports September 22nd. I will let you all know the time as soon as possible.
I will get the poems up soon and Charlie Dark (Wiki him) who helped host the event approached me before the show and asked for my contact detials for an anthology, at the time I didn't realise who it was amd only because my friend Kazie told me who it was after, I was feeling blessed.
