August 2010
Assuming it’s a Lost style tropical island with little chance of rescue, a water source and food supply, then I would bring suncream. Factor 50.
Why? Well that’s pretty obvious. I burn.
There’s this Muhammad Ali quote, “I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.’ “
I’m not sporty and I personally do not look up to Muhammad Ali as a sporting hero or anything, but I find this quote really inspiring. You have to work for things you want, be they trivial or life changing, whether it be a college place, a new dress or somebody special. It seems hard at the time and you might question if it’s worth continuing, but in my experience, the juice is worth the squeeze.
Easy. Jedward are my guilty pleasure. The terrible twins never cease to entertain me with their antics. You have to admire their consistency, returning week after week to The X Factor despite the tirade of abuse they received from judges, audience and the media alike.
I watched their tv programme during the week and I literally laughed my ass off. They are cringe worthy to watch. Car crash telly at it’s finest.
Challenge. Get excited.

Due to my incredibly short attention span, expect me to get bored with this pretty quickly. Though maybe I’ll surprise even myself.
