The Apprentice 2011: Week 4

This week Sir Alan challenged the business novices to set up beauty treatments on the rather unaware public in Birmingham.

Sorry just a quick post this week

I would like to start by wondering why when someone offering you a treatment, surrounded by camera crews and Nick Hewer or Karren Brady doesn't realise perhaps a filming of The Apprentice is taking place. By putting two and two together did the public not think that perhaps the treatments they were going to receive was of that by amateurs...just throwing that out there. 

Funny Moments of the Week

Jim - entering the treatment room and looking like we was about to kill someone with wide scary eyes

Nick - Cutting in with his expertise, just because he couldn't restrain himself from watching Felicity's team stupidity

Glenn - his rather odd approach to selling beauty products

Leon - worried about being called gay due to his involvement with all the beauty products and tanning

Tom - his face sideways his very thin, and he reminds me of Mr Bean.

 

Cee Lo Green Live at Billboard Music Awards

Keep watching for a floating piano, spinning around 

Rihanna feat. Britney Spears - S&M @ Billboard Music Awards 2011

Beyonce Live at Billboard Music Awards

Well this is the most inventive performance I have ever seen

WOW

Rolling in the deep (Adele Cover) - Maddi Jane

So if you love Adele and her fantastic single 'Rolling in the Deep' then you are sure to enjoy a cover of the critically acclaimed track by a tiny little school girl. 

A fantastic powerful voice full of rich tone and clarity.

I hope you enjoy. 

Man turns his head 180 degrees

Well this is just plain creepy. Although this is interesting, I do find it rather unsettling also. 

Unaware whether this is shock or pure disgust of how it looks, its just not natural.

Don't try this at home. Please. 

Beyonce teases us!

Beyonce and her management are teasing us with these trailers of her video for 'Run the world (girls)'

Just Release it already, we can't wait until Wednesday 

Rihanna - California King Bed

Glad to see Rihanna moving away from her 'Gangsta' days and back to a good old fashioned slow belter.

I think she needs this song ti really remind us that she can sing, with a great voice like that why does she ever bother to do such cheesy and tasteless songs.

This is a much better representation of her, think of artists such as Adele who don't theatrics to be noticed.

What do you think of it?? 

Adele - Make You Feel My Love (Song For Royal Wedding)

A cover by Sean Rumsey below of Adele's version of 'Make You Feel My Love' that he covered for the Celebration of the Royal Wedding

His tone is fantastic and the voice really flows throughout with rich warmth and distinctness.

What a listen, I hope you enjoy this and check out his youtube channel.  

A - Z Blogging Challenge: Z is for ZZZZZZzzzzzz

Z is for tiredness and having a kip.

This challenge has been tough yet really fun, and I am now ready for a rest.

Napping is always best when its afternoon and you nap fully on the bed and wake up feeling tired yet refreshed.

Catching some afternoon Zzzzzzzzzzzz's is always a fun activity and usually better than your overall night time sleep.

The funniest place I have napped is at school, silly to leave yourself open to attack from pens, but it sure made the day go faster!!!

A - Z Blogging Challenge: Y is for Yippee

Yippee, what a great word this is!

Yippie as a word just makes me laugh so I googled it and found this rather funny video including the word yippee.

There are crazy singing sheep in this video, be aware.

A - Z Blogging Challenge: X is for 'Xhausted

I was really cream crackered the other day when I went on a mad cleaning spree. I 'Xhaused myself out from going at it like a crazy OCD robot. I cleaned and I cleaned once more.

I did this because I really happy and I like to have a clean when I am happy, and when there is nothing in the back of your head to have time to enjoy  the simple things like cleaning.

I hoovered most of the rooms in my flat, tidied, dusted and made everything look right in perfect right angles, except the circular table which really annoyed me as well as being made out of glass which shows the dirt clearly.

Similarly I found myself scrubbing the kitchen floors until I was ready to drop off to sleep. I was on my hands and knees scrubbing like Cinderella, except for fun as nobody forced me too.

I only managed to half the floor in an hour as it was that dirty, I made the cream floor, change from browny-grey to cream again, and that was a sense of achievement, which does sound odd I know.

A - Z Blogging Challenge: W is for Whine

Whine, Whine, Whine, well that is me, I love a good whine. So today you shall have a good old whine for me.

I am avoiding the obvious 'W' for Wedding, aka Royal Wedding, as I am sure many of you will be posting about this joyous event.

In an earlier post I expressed my annoyance of the wedding. I do not disapprove of it but merely dislike the constant badgering from the press about it. The wedding itself is great...

So I guess I have just ended up talking about the Wedding like a whiney mare.

Why is it when its hot people suddenly run to ice creams like they are God?

When the Sun shines, why are people so keen to tan but always burn.

When will I stop talking about pointless and silly things...Never.

A - Z Blogging Challenge: V is for Vulgar

I shall list some habits, behaviours, sayings and general things in which I find Vulgar to read, see or hear.

I am a picky kind of person, I am not easy satisfied or easily won over. Peoples habits tend to grate on me until I find them vulgar and disgusting enough to tell them about it.

With strangers on the train...being honest doesn't work...trust me.

Vulgar list:

1. Chewing with your mouth open
2. Socks with sandals
3. Random dirty tissues not in the bin
4. Constant Swearing
5. Low hanging 'gangsta' trouser wearers - your not cool
6. RAP STARS ALWAYS WEARING SUNGLASSES - Idiots, especially in the winter
7. Mini Chavs
8. People unaware of the surroundings
9. Shop assistants not scanning quick enough and having a chat
10. PEOPLE WHO SMOKE
11. Haters of Bieber and Rebecca Black - don't listen to them if they annoy you
12. Plastic covers left on laptops and phones
13. The use of the word 'OMG'
14. Sentences with slang words throughout the sentence
15. Technophobes who are scared on PC/Laptop/Macs 
16. BIRDS - except little Robins
17. Chavs with Sky TV and a dog who claim benefits, get rid of your luxuries
18. People on Jeremy Kyle who haven't heard of condoms
19. Unclean faces
20. FLYING ANTS!

This moaning could be construed as negative, but this makes me happy! 

A - Z Blogging Challenge: U is for Utopia

Today is resembling that of a perfect day, something of peace and sound of mind.

I have finished my Dissertation for my University Degree.

I feel free and light headed. My shoulders feel lighter and my computer thanks me for using it less to write such large documents of writing.

I hope this feeling of achievement lasts for a long time.

A - Z Blogging Challenge: Q is for Quick Moan

A QUICK MOAN FOR YOU ALL

It seems that at this time of the year our attentions turn towards the summer weather and everyone seems to be loving it.

With glorious sunshine and rays of light beaming through the days sky, the whole of the UK just seems that bit happier especially with the impending thousands of bank holidays approaching.

However I am cynical and do not trust this sunshine. With the sunshine basking over us for so many days we are bound to be disappointed and distraught when it finally goes away.

Are hopes will be shattered and destroyed, but it is a small price to pay maybe for a few exciting days of ice cream and sun-glasses wearing.

So be careful guys, don't let that sun take it all away!!

Random I know.

A - Z Blogging Challenge: P is for Pool

P is for POOL or I guess Swimming Pool.

Last night me and some family members decided to go for a late night swim at the local leisure centre, and it turned out great.

It was as evening session form 8-10pm and we got there about 8.45. We swam up until we had to go out, and I can feel it in my muscles today, need to get back into it and use these muscles once again to power me through the water.

Being so late meant it was quiet and relaxing. we could swim in peace without annoying screaming children on their holidays.

We used the steam room and sauna also, but only for 10 minutes or less. It was really refreshing.

Amongst this we did do some lengths and reverted back to our childhood and did some races and silly games.

My favourite thing is to swim underwater, and I do think I turn out like a dolphin in the water at times.

What a great evening.
Thank you POOL, you were fun.
