So today I shan't be making a big update as my computer has just DIED. DIED SO HARD.
Anyway, the Julian just sent my birthday present out, and I recieved it today. A giant (23") reflector for my photography! I'm becoming more professional everyday!
HUZZAH! Thanks, Julian, aside from nearly throwing things and kicking my comp, that is just totally awesome Can't wait for the SGUK spooky camp!
I'm *hopefully* getting my computer fixed on Thursday. Julian'll sort that out for me
I hope. Dearly hope. My life is my computer! NO SGUK CHAT?! NOOOOOOO!! :'(Cheerio 'til then, I guess!

This Sunday I met with her again and took some more photos:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last night I went to Canary Wharf with my friend Katherine to do some night-shot test photos. Although they didn't come out THAT well, I still had "the time of my life!"
I reallllllllly want to go back there, I freakin' love tall buildings like that!
I need a model for another shoot >_>

For the lovely SGUK members, and other folk
So, like, whhhhhhhhy'd you name yourself "Snowy"?
A few years ago before I joined SG (but I was a lurker, I was waiting until I was 18 to join!) I drew some stars on my stomach (á la Akemi) and posted the picture on my MySpace. Then my dear friend commented on it, saying "Quick! Nurse! Get this woman on a sunbed stat! You couldn't get any paler than that without being called "Snowy". So it stuck. In no way and I related to Tintin's dog.
So what's your real name?
Caroline. But I answer to Line.
Are you a line?
Yes.
How long is your line?
I'd say about 9'3" long
Do you prefer a line or a circle?
I've never been a circle, so I'll say line. I've always wanted to bend over backwards so far that I can grab my ankles with my hands and roll down the street. Like a circle.
So where do you live, Caroline?
Land of the Yummy Mummies (Chiswick) I had to fight my way through a 6-strong crowd of YMs coming out of Sainsbury's. I am not one of them.
How many times have you walked up and down the stairs in your house?
Over the last 14 1/2 years I would say about 23 million times. I have a lot of stairs in my house!
What do you do?
I work at Waterstones store no. 112. I won't tell you where that is. I sell books. And order books. And stand behind the till. I'm a minion in the company.
Are you struggling to think of questions that you get asked frequently?
Yes.
Why have you got that scar on your forehead?
I ran into a lampost when I was 8 years old. I was running away from a bee, because BEES CAN KILL!
How many stitches did you have?
I had eight. A man outside M&S called me "Frankenstein" the next day.
And you had glasses! You must have looked like a right twit.
Four-eyed Frankenstein. It was my nickname from my brothers.
Why are your ears so small?
All the better to ignore annoying customers with!
Why did you just stop typing a few minutes ago?
I went to the toilet.
So why were you in there so long?
I have a pile of magazines on the floor that go up to my thighs AND I have a world map on the wall. I was staring at East Timor. I bet you don't know where that is! FOOL!
What's up with you and ikillvampires? Who is he?
A charming young man with brilliant hair. *strokes*
What are you looking forward to most in the next month?
My Geometry Wars party (oh yes!), my birthday and my paycheck! WOO!
What's up with this new "accent" that you have?
I hang around half-Americans too much
What? What are you doing now?
I'm going to poon some nabs on CoD4.

FURTHER QUESTIONS FROM INTERESTED MEMBERS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And now I've gone and stolen a question from other members:
How'd you come across SG?
YEARS ago in the old New Musical Expess they had a review for one of the shows that SG did. Apparently it was just loads of semi-naked girls dancing around and covering themselves in gungey stuff. And I remember thinking, "who are they? Why are there so many of them?" Then about 6 months before I turned 18 they were in the video for Louis XIV's tune Paper Doll. Checked out the site and I lurked for many months before I got round to joining.
Why lurk?
I didn't have a VISA or a Mastercard. Damn you HSBC, and your Maestro! *shakes fist*
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Alaska, followed by Canada. Mmmmmmmmm
What do you think of this "SGUK" group, anyway?
WELL, although it took me a ridiculolusly long time to get in (!!) it sure is awesome
What song are you listening to constantly? It's hurting my little computer ears!
My Patch by Jim Noir! How can that hurt yo' ears? It's so sweet ^_^
Now go away!
Okay
Less than 2 weeks until I turn 20
I'm leaving teendom! How sad *cries*So like, YEAH! I went on holiday this summer. How about that. I thought I'd show you in 30-something EPIC photographs, spoilered for your own good!
Spain & Portugal: 21st July - 2nd August 2008
We landed at Sevilla Airport and after much confusion and lots of monies later, we got our car and drove off to Tavira, in Portugal.
From Thursday 7th August to Saturday 23rd August I went to Ireland.
It was wet.
Very wet.

We've been together for 4 years now, it's nice to know that he smiles when I kiss him, haha!
To finish off, here I am, completing my blog. I got my job back at Waterstones and I start on Monday. I can't wait!
I've also got a photoshoot on Sunday which I'm looking forward to
I'm going to bed now as I have to go shopping in the morning
Night night!
xx
I'm back in England now!
Man, I've been away for too darn long. That's the thing I hate about summer >_< I would show you all my MILLIONS OF PHOTOS but I am in Brighton at the moment and they're in London, y'see. I have got two photos, though:
I like rubble and industrial things. How strange. Anyway, here I am as Queen of Rubble!
My family in England and some cool donkeys in Ireland. Oh yeah!
It's good to be back! How is everyone?

P.s. I'm 20 soon! My party is going to be based on this game:
I'm going as the orange rockets you see 13 seconds in to the video. OH YEAH! I bought my outfit today, which consists of lots of orange stuff from H&M. When I was purchasing them, the lady said, "so I guess your favourite colour is orange, eh?". Lolololol!
P.p.s.
P.p.p.s. I'm going to Leeds for the day tomorrow. Going up tonight!
P.p.p.p.s. I went to the gym today and I worked out SOLIDLY. I'm proud of myself, thanks
I'm going to Ireland in about 6 hours. I need sleep.
Back on the 23rd August. Farewell!

I'm going away for 2 weeks tomorrow to southern Spain and a teeny bit o' Portugal, so I don't think I'll be that active for that period of time... However! I will do my best.

My hair's gone grey!
Excuse the webcam pics.
I'm going to go into my bathroom and dye parts of it pink now. In my special dying t-shirt. Looks like I've been stabbed in the back when Ii wear it, from all the old red-based dyes I've used over the years.
Goin' out a drinkin' tonight. And tomorrow in Brighton! YAY!

I hung out with good ol' Queenie today at her garden party. As you do!
This is what I wore:
Unfortunately I don't have any photos of me AT the event as you're not allowed cameras in there. Le sigh. But it was fun! I had tea and cake and my mum and I discussed flowers and hats. "Oh, that's so old hat" is my favourite new thing to say!
After that, I ran to Cafe Rouge to have dinner with my friends as we were celebrating two of their birthdays. The we hung out by the river at this fine pub:
Aaaah yeah!
More fun photos:
^ Lolololol!
I'm off to Essex tomorrow for a photoshoot! Weeoo
Cheerio
