I'm Back Like I Left Something

Hi Internet,

Weirdly, this little blog still gets regular views, even though it hasn't been updated for nearly 6 years. I've read back a few of the old posts and they are pretty cringey. Both in content and grammar. Hopefully I am a little bit less so, now that I am in my 30's. Probably not, though. I don't even remember writing some of them, or even thinking any of the thoughts I vocalised. I considered deleting them. But they are a part of my history, and my blogs history, so it seems right that they stay. Plus, the blog post on Jared Leto has hundreds of views, and I am unlikely to reach the same level again.

I'm not sure what made me revisit this today. But here I am.

I don't know what I am going to turn this in to, but I like the idea of having an outlet for my thoughts, even if nobody ever reads them. Feels quite cathartic to get them out into the universe. Do people even blog anymore? No matters anyway - I've never been one for trying to keep up with the cool kids. As emphasised by my use of the phrase "cool kids".

Let's see how I long I keep this up for.

A Little Help From My Friends?

Hi Lovely Readers,

Thank you very much for taking time out of your business (or slacker) schedules to visit my blog. I don't know who you all are, but its very much appreciated all the same. I kinda like the mystery of it to be honest. But the point of this post is not just to send thanks though. I am requesting some blog type help in that I am running low on inspiration on ideas at the mo and help is needed!
Basically you can help in two ways:

  • reply to this post with ideas for a Top 5.
  • if you are feeling particularly creative, maybe you would like to write your own post. It can be on any topic. Just email it to becauseisayso@live.co.uk when you are done.


Thanks again for reading,

Corkette :)

Living In A Material World, And I Am A Material Girl.

Top Five: Things I Want Right Now.

This is a list of things that are not necessities to my life, but I want them all the same. Mostly because I think they are cool (though I am most likely incorrect in this view) and that is the only reason for my wanting. If any of you happen to win the lottery jackpot and wish to be a generous donor to fund my frivolous needs, it would be most appreciated.

5. Smeg Fridge in Pink.

4. Customised Nikes.

3. Nintendo 3DS.

2. Green Cambridge Satchel bag.

1. Beats By Dre Headphones (haven't settled on a colour yet).

No Need For Nervousness, It's Just A Little Turbulence.

Top Five: Things About Aeroplane Adventures

To me, it doesn't feel like the holiday has begun until you have made it through all the airport departments and are on the plane. Then it is time to relax.

5. The Views.
I have rarely had the chance to be in the window seat whilst flying, but they are (obviously) the best seats on the plane. I like it when you fly through thick clouds and emerge out the top on a sea of cotton wool.

4. Leaving Home.
As I am not a high-flying business person, going on a plane means just one thing - I AM GOING ON HOLIDAY!

3. Coming Home.
If you happen to have had a (slightly or mightily) traumatic holiday, sometimes it is nice to back in the plane and know that soon you will back in the land of (relative) normality.

2. Air Hostesses.
Not only do you get a warm greeting when you arrive, but they bring you drinks and food treats throughout the journey. They even allow you to do a bit of shopping should you require it. And hopefully not let you die if the plane plummets to the ground.


1. Movies.
Any excuse to sit back and watch a film is good by me. You must have noticed. It is most exciting when there is a vast array of recent films to chose from and catch up. It is like having your own personal DVD collection in your seat. Which is a bit like being at home though, to be honest.
