Screw This – I Can’t Think of a Title!

Hello and welcome to the new & improved blog from Pepper! Over my two-week blogging hiatus, I realised I needed a change. No, I’m not talkin’ about clothes here; I mean I think I’ll change my blogging style.
Has anyone else noticed that lately all I’ve been writing are lists & tags? Well, that’s the thing. I’ve decided to make this blog all about lists (with your occasional random musings). Don’t expect it to be daily - I’m far too lazy to pull that off. It’s gonna be a bit less impersonal and you may actually find out somethings about me (shock, horror).
Thankyou for weatherin’ out the storm. The gods will reward you finely. xx Peppercorn Swirls

Hear it. Play it. Watch it. See it.

Four random things I think everybody should love.

1) Selena Gomez’s debut. (Actually, it’s Selena Gomez AND THE SCENE but come one – what kind of a band name is that?!) The songs on it are electro-pop, mainly. My favourites are Naturally and Crush, which isn’t that original of me, I know. But those songs rock.
2) Rebubbled. Go play it; it’s addictively evil. Basically, there are bubbles floating about the screen which you must pop using a random chain thing, or else they’ll kill you. (Which they do a lot.)
3) Glee. Now, when I say this, keep in mind that I’m as mainstream as the “popular” kids, FTB, and all that. But this show is pure genius. Addictive, really.
4) Paranormal Activity. It’s the most hilarious thing I’ve seen in ages. Go watch it for a major laugh – it’s no where near scary! All you see in the movie are two people lying in bed, the only scary part being where they get out :O. xx Peppercorn Swirls

Look! More! I feel loved :D

I’m a geek, not a freak or a gleek

I hate labels. Cool, Emo, Floater, Goth, Hippie, Jock, Loner, Loser, Nerd, Popular, Prep, Rebel, Stoner, Tool..... They are the only ones I can think of at the moment. But I’m such a hypocrite: I label people all the time. Once, a few friends & I drew up a map which incorporated each clique & their stereotype. But we couldn’t decide what our group’s stereotype was. We’re not popular (five peeps is hardly there), and we’re not cool or stoners. My bestie Ann dresses like an emo, but she acts preppy. My other bestie, Una, always dresses indie & hippy like, but is a total rebel, always getting into trouble. Then there’s BB -- A purple-haired freak who acts like a tool and wears brands such as Nike, Adidas, & Puma.
Maybe we’re losers?
These labels have got me feeling insignificant lately – I’m actually the “smart” gal, but it’s horrible when it’s the only thing people see you as & refuse to get to know you a lil’ bit better. Does anyone else get that? I’m sure heaps of people do.
I hate labels.

By the way, do y’all like my new header? My pal Blaize made it for me on a Windows program called Real Draw PRO; she wanted to draw it then scan it, but I stopped that from happenin’ (lol)! I’d prefer to have a simple, hideous header than a complex, good-lookin’ one. xx Peppercorn Swirls

Yay Me!
