Well, I've had an eventful few days! Sunday was my last day of filming for the exciting TV show I've been working on! It was a very long day. I started the day at Topshop in Oxford Street where they opened the store up especially for me! Can you even begin to imagine how exciting that was?! Ha ha. The only other person I know of that they've done that for is Michael Jackson! Basically I needed an outfit for the grand finale of the show so the producer and one of the guys from the channel sorted it and took me to Topshop early Sunday morning hours before it was due to open. We had the whole shop to ourselves and a personal stylist. We ran round like excited kids and grabbed tons and tons of dresses. Kyle met me there too and after filling the VIP dressing room with glam dresses, I did a fashion show for everyone so that we could decide on an outfit. Between us, we picked two dresses (the kind of dresses I've never worn before in my whole life) and then we went running back round the shop to pick out accessories and shoes to go with them! I felt like a princess! I still can't believe they opened Topshop just for me! ha ha. It's a dream come true for any girl surely?! Plus, not just any Topshop - the GIANT one on Oxford Street (four floors of heavenly clothes!). What joy. After the shopping spree, we all drove back to the film set and I was rushed into hair and make-up to get ready for the day's filming.
We didn't finish filming til really late, by which time we had a bit of a party on the go. The whole crew stayed for a few beers and then some of us took it further. Of course, I was one of the ones who didn't want to go home and after three beers (bearing in mind I don't ever drink beer), I was well and truly feeling "the love" and wanting to stay all night and party. I instigated a Ouija board at some point in the haunted house we'd been filming in and at 3am, 6 of us found ourselves sitting in a candle lit room asking "is there anybody there?" hilarious! After that we played silly party games and carried on drinking til 6.30am. I walked out the door to get in my car home, beer still in hand and slurring about how mush I loved everyone!
Me and Kyle then crashed out for a few hours at mine and got up again to go to Bluewater with Jord to do some Christmas shopping. Unfortunately the same thing happened as when I went with Sarah; we got brain-ache from trying to think about what to buy and ended up in TGI Fridays drinking milkshakes. We didn't really get a lot done but still managed to stay out til really late and got back to mine at about 10pm. I then spent the whole night wrapping the presents I'd already bought weeks ago while Kyle and Jord kept me entertained and gave me the use of their fingers (for tying ribbon). I eventually got to bed at about 4am and me and Kyle fell asleep laughing.
Tuesday I got up, went to get food with Jord and Kyle, popped in to see Carolina and then came home to meet Dave at mine. Lauren and Carolina then came to mine and we all went to Alex's house. Alex put a load more hair extensions in for me (gotta have a full glorious head for Christmas!) and we finally got home at about midnight.
Today I got up early as I had a photo shoot at home for Closer magazine (I'll let you know when it comes out). Sadie, my make up artist came to make me up and after the shoot finished we went into Brentwood with Jord and Dave to have lunch. After that we all did a little bit more Christmas shopping until Sadie had to go and we all went our separate ways. I came home to meet my cleaners with the intention of getting my dressing room spotless. Tomorrow I have a really big photo shoot at home and need the house to look amazing. Five minutes after my cleaners arrived though, they had a phone call with some bad news and they had to rush off. I am now sitting at my computer (where I have been for the last few hours) because I can't face cleaning the whole house on my own. God I hate it! Actually I don't hate cleaning that mush - I hate hanging clothes up! It's my biggest fear in life! And right now I have fourteen bags full of clothes that need to be hung up or washed, where I have been living out of bags and suitcases for the last month while filming this show! Not fun!
I can't believe it's my birthday in 3 days! I'm sooooo looking forward to it. I'm not looking forward to being another year older (as I only feel 16 inside) but I am looking forward to the carnage it will bring. I love birthdays as they are an excuse to behave as appallingly as you want! This year there is absolutely nothing I want in the way of presents so I have asked everyone to just give some money to one of my charities. Everything I want or need I can buy for myself so I would rather they do something constructive with the money (those that insist on buying me something). All I want is for my mates to join me in getting the most drunk we've ever been. I want hand-stands, bush-diving, wrestling on beds, wacky races and silly drinking games. I also want singing round the piano at some point. Last year I had the biggest and most fancy party ever and this year I want the total opposite - I want to slum it (maybe even at home) and just get steaming drunk to the point that we all embarrass ourselves and act like kids. It's been so long since all the crew were together for a proper night out that I am looking forward to that, let alone the drunken state of everyone by the end of the night!
How's life treating me in every other way? Just great thanks. I'm having a whale of a time. I'm working my little arse off (which I love) and I'm more excited than most kids I know, that Christmas is fast approaching. It's my birthday, Christmas and then NYE and I CANNOT wait! I know come January I will be bored as hell (that's when I might go to Australia to see my mate Michelle) but until then there is nothing but excitement ahead and I plan to make the most of it. I've got a lot of steam to let off - I feel like I haven't been out for ages and I certainly need to flash some flesh! All that wearing normal clothes for the TV show has driven me a little bit mad! I realise now that I NEED to flash a bit of flesh to have fun! Ha ha. I've been trussed up in shirts and suits for nearly a month and on the last day when we finally finished I went and threw a corset on (just for an hour to feel a bit sexy!). The moment that corset went on, I felt like myself again and I went out into the garden to let off a big scream (mush to the amusement of the big boss of the show). Immediately I started acting up (like the normal old me) and with a couple of beers down my neck I was gagging to go clubbing (shame there's no where decent to go on a Sunday). I have looked really smart for the whole show but I've also felt suffocated - perhaps I should just parade around my house in crotchless knickers for a while to feel sexy again! Seriously, there's definitely something to be said for the clothes you wear! I mean, I loved the "New" me for the show but I DO need to flash a bit of flesh and dress up in bondage gear every once in a while to make myself feel good! A suit every day is just too formal. Now..... where are my crotchless knickers........?
Honestly, it's amazing how mush difference clothes can make. I've felt very professional in suits and I've loved every minute of it but I do have a mad craving to go out in just my bra and knickers now. I can't wait to see the show anyway! I'm very proud of it (even though I am being overly critical and keep thinking I could have done certain bits better) and I loved everyone who worked on it! I'm also looking forward to getting drunk at the wrap party and seeing everyone again.
So, I am supposed to be tidying and cleaning my house but I am going to wait for Lauren to get here. Somehow, if she talks to me while I do it, it makes it fun and easy. Without anyone here; I can't find the will to do it. Tidying is so boring! Until then I might just go and put an air hostess uniform on with no knickers!
Hope you're all having a good week peeps.
Here's a GREAT quote someone sent me: "Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples up top think there is something wrong with them when in reality they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree....... x" - so so true!!!!!!!!! More true than any quote before in fact! Jeez men are wimps! That was from someone called Baby G on Myspace - thanks babe! Love it! x
All my love Jodie x x x x x
P.S another great quote from the amazing Dolly Parton: "If you want to see the rainbow, you've got to take the rain" - stunning! What a woman!
