Crazy, Classy Love.
Our Summer Ball was actually immense.
It was held at a stunning five star hotel in Cardiff Bay which jutted out into the harbour (see piccie at the end); we arrived in a convoy of gorgeously mad classic cars! At the front was a police Morris Minor (complete with siren), followed by Chelsea’s white Morris Minor – and behind them were me & Jack in a stunning black 1983 Porsche 911!
The weather on arrival was lovely and sunny (although it tipped down later in the evening); after checking into our gorgeously plush hotel room (complete with a king-size bed, balcony overlooking the harbour, flatscreen TV, iPod dock and a bidet – rofl) which cost us £130 for the night, we were greeted with glasses of bucks fizz and got an hour of drinking in before the meal! The bar was ridiculously expensive (over £6 for a half-glass of Jack Daniels and Coke!) – but it doesn’t take me much to get very silly, so I didn’t spend an awful lot. ;D
The meal was actually really tasty: for starter, we had pea & broadbean soup; the main was roast beef with Yorkshire pud, spuds & veggies; and the dessert was apple crumble with ice cream (although it was full of raisins, which I had to spend ages picking out.. ugh). I had a couple of pints of cider with my meal – much cheaper than the overpriced spirits! I really do love being eighteen, haha.
Following the meal, the lights went down and the music was turned up – but no one got up on the dancefloor! Jack & our friend Josh kick-started it all, getting up there and doing craazy dancing – before long, our whole table joined them! For most of the night, it was mainly our group of friends & a few others dominating the dancefloor – all the others were being such spoilsports. :’D At one point, one of the waiting staff – a posh-looking guy probably in his late fifties – got up and performed an epic routine to a Michael Jackson song, with everyone cheering him on; Jack also did the most awesome moonwalk across the floor, with much crotch-grabbing (his own, of course). There were so many hilarious ”dance-offs” between Jack & Josh, and we all went totally wild when Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up came on. ;D We know THE GAME and we’re gonna play it! ♫♪ There was also the absolutely classic Time Warp, and watching the guys perform the YMCA at the end was hilarious. :’D I honestly can’t believe that our tickets to the ball were only £5. Crazy stuff.
When the ball was over, Jack & I retired to our gorgeous room.. I can’t go into too much detail here, I’m afraid (we had a good ole’ jump on the bed first, though)! But after, um, everything, we ended up standing on our balcony, looking out over the gorgeous night-lit harbour wearing nothing but the fur throw from the bed. Classy. ;D
I managed to get a brilliant night’s sleep (the bed was sumptuously comfy) before waking up at half eight; Jack & I had “breakfast in bed” (haha) before I made us nice mugs of tea & got ready to leave. I snapped some very cute pictures of Jack sleeping, which I don’t think he knows about yet. Shh.
We got a taxi to the centre of Cardiff (after stuffing the complimentary teas, biscuits, posh bottles of water and toiletries into our bags) and headed straight to Blue Banana (a store very similar to Hot Topic, but better) – I got that adorable yellow “Spooning leads to forking” tee, plus a pink ice-cream necklace and Jack Skellington braces; Jack got purple skinnies, a tee, the same braces, a belt and a buckle.. he ended up spending over £70! Luckily, he won £150 on a scratchcard last week, so he could afford to. c: Lucky thing!
The assisstant absolutely loved us, and gave us two free wristbands to get into a Funeral for a Friend signing they’re having there next week. Fabberoonies! I NEED to get more money before then, because I want those damn purple skinnies for myself. ;D
That’s all for now, my pretties! I hope your weekends have been fantastic so far, too. c: Enjoy the piccies – there aren’t very many, and I don’t look my best, but who cares!
Love, Kezzi. x

& The Living is Eaaasy..
It’s been a while, guys! Where did June go? -peeps under sofa-
SO. Sooo. I finished all of my exams a couple of weeks ago, and now I have no idea what on Mars to do with myself! Last month flew by like a bee with its arse on fire; I don’t even feel like I did those exams, they were that much of a breeze. I’m hopeful that I got three out of three As, at least, so I can get my £3,000 scholarship at Cardiff Uni – but the Day of Truth is the 19th of August, so I shall shut my gob until then. c:
IN OTHER NUDES, even though I have now been free from college for well over a month, my summer’s yet to really kick off; there haven’t been any groovy partays so far, but I’ll be sure to let you know when there are! c; At some point I will hopefully be popping down to Cornwall for a week or so with a few best friends; followed hopefully by a weekend road-trip to the Gower in Wales and a couple of camping trips! This is the first time my family hasn’t dragged me on holiday with them – it’s definitely a summer for friends this year! <3
Jack & I have now been together for over 6 months; to celebrate this we had a steak night out at the restaurant I work in. We’re going there again for his 18th on the 23rd! I bought him a top hat & monocle, which he shall be wearing to the meal. ;D I’m also really looking forward to next Friday – the Summer Leaver’s Ball. It’s being held in a 5-star hotel in Cardiff Bay; we get a drinks reception, meal and dance for just £5 – amazing! <3
I really wish I had more to report on, but I promise I will have lots to tell you all very soon! I’m really looking forward to getting out & about with my camera over the next couple of months, so hopefully I’ll have lots of lovely piccies to share with you.
Until then; stay sexy, ponies! ;D
Love, Kezzi. x

Goodbye, Wyedean!
I’m going to miss that place so much.
Friday was my last official day EVER at the school I’ve been attending for the last seven years – it’s been one hell of a time! :’D I can’t believe it’s gone so quickly. D: I now have study leave until my exams are over – then I have until the end of September to have an epic time before embarking on my new journey at University!
Before I cut the text and give you the last day in photos, I must tell you these things:
- I have bought a new camera – a Canon 350D (cheap but reliable) – which should be arriving on Monday! It was £285, along with standard lens, bower ring flash, three memory cards, spare battery pack, tripod, and more. Really good value!
- Jack & I celebrated our 5 month milestone on Friday night with the MOST delicious steaks! I definitely prefer mine medium rare – it was perfect. <3 SO many mushrooms ohlordy.
- Exams are in less than a month. I should really start studying. Ohbugger.
And now – the photos! Enjoy. c:
Love, Kezzi. x

It’s not over yet, mes chevals sexies!
On Saturday, I met Jack in town for a couple of hours – where I spent my Boots voucher on some naice new make-up and got a few more hawt little panty-things from Peacocks before chillaxing with Jack by the castle. <3
At six o’clock, we went to Wetherspoons to meet up with everyone – quite a few people came (ooh-err)! 
However, there had been un petit problem vis-à-vis my damn ID card not arriving, and Spoons is stupidly strict with it – so I was starting to regret arranging it there. When we went inside and spoke to one of the bartenders, she said that they had “forgotten” to reserve us a table and that we would have to be out by nine – lamewads. >: So instead, we popped next-door to the Indian restaurant; the people in there are a bajillion times nicer – they set us up a table, let us all order drinks and gave us amazing service. The food there is delicious – I had a chicken dupiaza and they gave us a tiny pot of tabasco sauce, which a few of us began to confidently eat – that was until our mouths caught fire and we started glowing like beacons! Srsly, that stuff isn’t just spicy – it HURTS. A lot. Jack had so much (plus a chilli pepper) that he had to wait half an hour before he could even eat his korma. :’D
My friend Vicky had baked me some gorgeous little cuppycakes (see below) with “HAPPY 18th KEZ” written on them – there’s even a little strawberry or raspberry inside each one! The waiter took these into the kitchen, and when we’d just finished eating our mains all the lights in the restaurant suddenly went out, and they brought out the cupcakes to a chorus of “Happy Birthday”, complete with candles. It was amazing! :’D
Once we’d paid up, we made our slightly tipsy way back to the castle – a couple of the guys went off to get more drinkies, and soon followed much drunk randomness! I don’t remember an awful lot from this part – but I know at one point, I began to play The Circle of Life from the Lion King and I was lifted up in the air, with everyone else bowing down to me. I AM SIMBA. Yes. I also set off a random confetti champagne bottle popper thingydoodle that we had found earlier in a charity shop – which didn’t make as impressive a noise as I’d hoped, but THERE WERE SHINIES. Shinies are always a good thing.
Jack came home with me and stayed over all yesterday – just vegging out, me in my pyjamas, watching Doctor Who and various movies. The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus is really quite an awesome film! o: Aside from that, the day was just lovely – for once, I didn’t give a damn what I looked like – my hair was a mess, my make-up was everywhere, I was in my most un-flattering clothing; but it didn’t matter, because Jack was there. I’ve never felt this way before – it’s honestly amazing! :3
Anyway, mes amis, that’s really all I have to tell for now – I hope you all enjoy your week!
Love, Kezzi. x

Birthdaywin!
That was the best 18th birthday of my life so far.
Waking up in the morning, I was greeted by a whole bunch of bright pink helium balloons – Buffy got almost as excited as me about them, and kept leaping for the ribbons and pulling them down! My parents gave me a bottle of Babycham (which I honestly can’t bring myself to open – the bottle is adorable, with little deer on it) and £200 – I got about another £100 from other family members, all of which I will be putting towards my new camera and possibly a DS. c:
At college, I wore the big pink “18″ rosette my mum got me – so many people were wishing me a happy birthday, it was crazy! :’D The absolute highlight of the afternoon was my best friend Jacob arriving with the most AMAZING cake he had baked himself – it was a delicious chocolate sponge cake, covered in chocolate fudge icing, shaped like a volcano with “lava” running down the sides! He had put one of those mad firework candles in it, and everyone squealed so much when it “erupted”. :’D Best. Cake. Ever. Pictures in the gallery at the end! Jack got me an absolutely stunning silver bracelet, which I can’t wait to wear to my birthday meal on Saturday. <3
And then, my darleenks, came le pièce de résistance – the Flight of the Conchords concert! After a two-hour drive to Birmingham and a ten-minute walk through the city in my ridiculous stillettos (why on Earth did I wear those?), we reached the NIA. The inside was absolutely massive – it’s probably not that big compared to a lot of concert venues, but I’m a very small person – so it was pretty crazy! Again, pics in the gallery. First on was a stand-up American comedian called Eugene Mirman – man, he was funny. :’D One of his best quotes was “I do proper dares – such as BUILD A TIME MACHINE, JACK-OFF IN IT AND SEND IT TO HITLER. That’s a real dare.” xD
And then, after a short musical interlude – out came the Conchords, in full robot headgear, singing their hilarious song Too Many Dicks on the Dancefloor (the video of which you can watch here) – I managed to get some piccies of this before I was told off for using my camera. :’D Throughout the set they alternately played songs and did a bit of funnytalky – a lot of which consisted of Jemaine trying and failing to do a Birmingham accent (which was SO funny) and them telling the most random anecdotes from their previous tours. At one point when they were talking to the audience, Jemaine accidentally hit the mic stand with his guitar and Bret was like “It’s okay, all part of the show!” and Jemaine said, “Hey Bret, tell them all about that time I hit the mic stand with my guitar!” and Bret said, “Oh, you guys, one time in Birmingham we were doing a set and Jemaine hit the- oh hey, you guys were there! You saw it all!” xD Later on in the set, Jemaine asked Bret to tell us the “groupie goldfish” story, which Bret refused. Jemaine then went on pleading with him, saying “You know the one.. with the groupie.. and the goldfish.. and the vagina..” and Bret was like “YES OKAY JEMAINE >:”. Win. :’D
As the duo are from New Zealand, where famously there are more sheep than people, a few members of the audience began to make sheep noises at them during the set. They looked rather amused by this. ;’D Jemaine said “If that is a person imitating a sheep, SHUT UP. If, however, that is a real sheep – welcome to the show!” xD
Next they played The Bowie Song (which you can watch the video of here) – halfway through, the lights dimmed and came back up again to reveal them (and their epic cello player, Nigel) in full sparkly David Bowie-esque vests and tight, tight trousers. ;D HAWT. They even played Albi the Racist Dragon (which again, you can watch here) – Bret couldn’t use the main piano for this, so instead used a ridiculous tiny red mini piano – Jemaine commented “Bret, you look like Elton John. A giant Elton John.” At the end of the song (which is all happy and sweet), Bret suddenly fired up the turntables, yelled “THIS IS A REEEEEMIX!” and started blasting crazy beats. :’D
When the last song came around, they jumped off the front of the stage – Bret managed to trip and hilariously worked his injury into the song, all tunefully – “Ow ow ow ow ow.. I may have a spinal injuryyy~” When they were climbing back onto the stage near the end of the song, the stage hand that was helping Jemaine managed to rip off his trousers to reveal his wonderful sparkly ones from the Bowie Song performance underneath, and he proceeded to trip about on stage with his trousers around his ankles while the audience pissed themselves. Oh, how I lurb them. :’D
That’s everything for now; all that’s left to come is my birthday meal on Saturday! I really can’t wait. Enjoy the few pictures that I managed to get! c:
Love, Kezzi x
