MY THOUGHTS ON ONISION AS OF LATELY

Hello there, guys! So for those of you who have read my blog entry about the things and people I have an irrational fondness for you know I quite enjoy Onision. If you don't know who Onision is, let me just give you a description;

Onision is one of the most hated YouTuber's ever if not the number one most hated. He makes harsh comments and digs towards those who are vulnerable such as fat people and people with special needs. He finds great joy in starting arguments with other YouTubers on twitter and has gained more haters than fans for all the drama he's caused. Also let's not talk about his past relationships.


So I bet you're wondering why I watch his videos if I portray him so negatively. Well, I basically like to laugh at him. Yes, that's a stupid reason but I find joy in how he contradicts himself a lot.

ANYWAY...

Most of you probably know that Shane Dawson came out recently as bisexual through a video he posted to his channel. He made the video to encourage his audience to accept themselves for who they are and they shouldn't feel ashamed just because of who they love. The video was quite emotional and he did cry quite a bit. 


As soon as the first tear fell I just knew Onision was going to have to say something about it. And I was right...

Onision posted up this tweet the same day Shane's video was posted;


When seeing the replies on this tweet I noticed people were like "Ohh that's so sweet" and stuff like that. Well to be honest, if I was Shane, I would've taken this a different way. In my opinion, Onision was making more of a dig at Shane as if he was crying for no reason. Also he seemed to be gloating about the kiss. Seriously, Onision and Shane have been enemies for a while now. Why would Onision just randomly congratulate his enemy? I don't congratulate my enemies on Facebook or Twitter or anything. You know why? Because they aren't worth my time! So why would Onision do this? To get attention as usual?

Five days later, Onision uploads a video called "I'm Coming Out (My Confession)". The first thing I thought was "Is he serious??? Copying Shane much." 



In the video he talks about how he wants to be accepted and he does his best to be pleasant to those around him (as if!) Then he starts crying, as usual, about being accepted by God which Shane had also mentioned in his video. Then towards the end of the video, he confessed that he was actually sexually attracted to hating people and that he's an asshole whilst crying fakely. This enraged many viewers. 

I just can't believe someone could take time out of their day to insult and mock others. Also, Onision has a child. When that kid grows up and watches his Dad's videos, how will he feel? It's an absolute joke.

Onision if you ever read this, please stop! You could be making videos that make people smile and laugh. Not videos that hurt!

Anyway I'm not going to rant any more. Thanks for reading the blog entry! Don't forget to follow me on the YouTube and Instagram and many other social media sites. And feel free to contact me! Until next time. Bye! <3

MAY FAVOURITES

Movies & TV Shows

Perfect Sisters


Perfect Sisters was not what I expected it to be. As it was in the horror section of Showbox I was expecting some flick with an insane sister or something. But it was the complete opposite. It was such an emotional movie based on a real story in which two sisters murdered their Mother as they couldn't take her alcoholism anymore. With the emotional ending it kind of makes us feel sorry for the sisters. It also ends with Wait by M83 which makes it even worse. Oh God...Right in the feels.

Drawn Together


I don't even remember how I came across this show but I don't regret deciding to watch it. It has so much gags and is quite a unique show. For fans of Family Guy and American Dad, I really recommend this show. 

Books

...But I Love You


This book is literally one of my favorites and I'm not even halfway through yet! The story basically explores the attitudes many people have towards gays and lesbians.It promotes the fact that everyone is a normal human at the end of the day whether you are gay or straight. Talk about inspiring!! Also I ship Helena and Kate! OTP! 

Makeup & Cosmetics


I came across this rose gold eye shadow by L'Oreal Paris the other day called 'Pin Up Pink' and it has to be my most favorite eye shadow ever. It's so cute and pretty and helps my eyes stand out. I wear this basically everyday I go out now I'm that obsessed. Thank you L'Oreal Paris for this wonderful eye shadow which has made such a massive impact on my life. Haha. 


Music


Lately all I've been listening to is three songs that The Living Tombstone made for the popular game franchise Five Nights at Freddy's. He made three songs for each game; The first one is basically from the point of view of the animatronics who only want to be friends with Mike, the second is from the point of a Mother who's child dies at the hands of the Purple guy and the third is from the point of view of the Purple guy. Pretty intense songs. But so good!

HOW TO IDENTIFY FAKE FRIENDS

Hey guys! So you can probably tell from the title that I'm going to talk about my past friendship with a certain indiviual and what I learned from them. To hide the friend's identities I am going to be referring to them by a nickname.

Hellspawn 


I was friends with Hellspawn for three years and, boy, what an experience that was. I have never had a more horrible friend than her. Yes, guys. It's rant time!

Spoilt

Hellspawn was literally the most spoilt person I've ever met.  Her spoilt behaviour started when she was a child with a situation in which her mother gave Hellspawn and her sister a £1 to get whatever they wanted in the shop. Her sister used it wisely and got two things whilst Hellspawn only got one thing.  She begged her mother for more money who said no because they had the same amount. Ever since then, her mother has apparantly treated Hellspawn like dirt unlike her sister. I didn't believe the story when I heard it. But when I heard from her, I literally was face palming inside my head.

I remember going to Hellspawns house and I used to wait while she did her chores for her to come hang out. The only house work she had to do was polish the door frames with a wipe. Such an easy task. Yet she still complained. I clean my bedroom and the bathroom in my house all the time! And I don't complain at all!

I also remember having a conversation with her about religion. She always claimed that she didn't believe in God. At the time I really cared bout religion so I basically was trying to get it into her head that it was real (I respect other peoples views now). So she opened up to me and said, "I do believe in him. But I don't rely on him What's he ever done for me?" As some of you know, my Mother is actually deceased. I had to resist the urge to say to her, "He lets you have both your parents still." But I knew if I did she would resolve to bitching about me behind my back.

So emo

Hellspawn used to listen to a lot of bands like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Sleeping with Sirens...you get it. She listened to emo/punk bands and I had nothing against that. I just didn't like how the music affected her. She started to act depressed all the time an whined more often. One day we were out walking and I said to her, "Dude, you've only started acting like this ever since you've started listening to that music." She reacted pathetically. She took a hissy fit and declared that I wasn't the only person to say that. Well surely if there were others it must mean it's true!

She also had a problem with other peoples music tastes. She always insulted Lady Gaga in front of me. I told her it hurt and she basically said to me, "Everyone insults my music taste. Why can't I insult other peoples tastes?" Talk about bitchy logic.

Compulsive Liar

Hellspawn and another girl, who we shall call Dosey for the time being, were always causing fights. Sometimes against each other. Sometimes against me. I will share with you all a situation that really happened. I will tell the story how I remember it. I will not lie or exaggerate anything.

So basically there was a girl we used to hang out with called Alex who was friends with me and Hellspawn. At one point we started to really dislike Alex and I can't even remember why. Anyway, I was on a walk with Hellspawn and we were talking about CSI and crime scene things. She then said to me, "Do you know Alex said your Dad pushed your Mom down the stairs."

A few days later, Dosey said to me, "Alex said your Dad choked your Mom with her own tongue."

Of course I was absolutely infuriated. I know how my Mom died and it was none of the above. Also my Dad loved my Mom so much. Obviously I told my Dad and a whole confrontation was held. Alex claimed that she hadn't said anything. My Dad then visited Hellspawn's family to which she claimed she hadn't said anything like that at all.

The next time I saw Hellspawn was in school. She said that I misunderstood what she said. She said, "Remember we were talking about CSI? And we were saying what if your Mom was actually murdered." Later Alex confronted Hellspawn and was asking her why she said such things about her. Hellspawn bit her lip and kept her eyes on the ground and said, "you did. You said it." So strange that she remembered only then!

It was obvious she was lying. I lost a friend because of her lie.

Jealous

Hellspawn was always jealous because of stupid things. She hated when people got drunk because she apparently couldn't. She was jealous because she had a good life with no family problems of situations. And I am not exaggerating that. I am being honest.

As some of you know Siun is one of my best friends and Hellspawn was always jealous of her. I remember she gave me her phone to keep as she got a new one. And stupidly she forgot to delete her messages. I know that looking through other peoples messages is an intrusion of privacy. But I couldn't resist. She was saying so many negative things about me to others. One of the messages to her boyfriend was about how I spend too much time with Siun. But Hellspawn was a terrible friend who whined a lot and made me feel anxious. Siun was the complete opposite.

Inconsiderate

One time me, Hellspawn, Siun and another friend Colleen were on lunch duty and we had to make sure students were going in the right doors. A former friend tried to pick a fight with us because we couldn't let her in. I defended her and said she was just an angry person. Hellspawn then asked why the former friend goes to Youthlife (a bereavement agency for young people) and I explained her family situation - one of the things being her Grandparent died who she was really close to. Hellspawn then said, "I don't get why people go to Youthlife for the death of their grandparents. Everyones grandparent dies!" Little did she know Siun's granny wasn't in good health. So I confidently said to Hellspawn, "Listen, you have no idea who you are saying that to."


There are tonnes of more stories to tell but I have wrote enough. So from this friendship I learned that if a friend is constantly whining about stupid things, tell her that its nothing to be so whiny about. And if she isn't happy with that forget about her! If a friend is constantly stirring up stories to start a fight because of her anger, ditch her immediately. She is trouble!

Until next time guys! Bye!

What's in my bag?


Hey Guys! So for my entry today I'm going to share with you all what is in my bag. So here's an opportunity to be nosey. You're invited! Also, your friends are invited! So bring your buddies here to see the contents of my bag.


I always have my purse in my bag. I will always need it as it holds all my cards and cash. People who don't take their purses or wallets with them on a daily bases confuse me. I got this purse at Q-Con and I love it so much. It's so quirky.


In my bag, I also bring powder and a powder brush in case I'm in need of covering up that deep blush! *Cringes at cringy-ness*. You never know when you're gonna need to touch up on your makeup. And since I am the eyeliner Queen Supreme, I need to carry around eyeliner in case I'm in need of a touch up around my eyes too. As for lipgloss and lipstick, I carry three different shades everyday in order to determine which shade i'm in the mood to wear for the day. I'm also a huge fan of the NO.7 Shine & Tint lipgloss range. Seriously guys, try them out!



I always carry around a notepad as someday I want to be a writer. I write down ideas that randomly pop into my head so I don't forget them and I sometimes use it to take notes in class. It's so handy and looks cute. I also carry around a book to read in case I want to entertain myself. Right now I'm reading ...But I love You by Sinead Gillespie and it's so good!

So there you all have it! The contents of my bag. There's nothing special in there but it was fun to write about!

Until next time guys!

April Favourites!

Movies & TV Shows

Game of Thrones Season 5



The suspense that is building up in Season 5 is killing me! I can't really remember who it was but one of the actors has revealed that there isn't something coming up towards the end of the series which is worse than the Red Wedding! Oh God! I'm so afraid yet excited to see what happens!

Blood and Ice Cream trilogy


I have been such a huge fan of these movies since I first watched Shaun of the Dead! Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost are so amazing when they work together. All the movies of the Blood and Ice Cream trilogy have such amazing and funny story lines. If I had to choose a favourite, it would definitely be The World's End. The ending was just so epic! Plus Simon Pegg was such a treasure to watch!

Makeup & Cosmetics

Hoola Bronzer


I found this life saver in Debenhams. This bronzer is the best I've ever used and I'm not even joking! I was told that it matches all skin tones which is 100% true! I love it and it was totally worth spending £23.50 on! I strongly recommend this product guys.

Music

Ken Ashcorp


I talked about Ken Ashcorp in another one of my blog entries. Seriously he is such a good song writer and has a voice that could slay! Just listen to the song I linked above!

Clothes

Primark - The Little Mermaid clothes


Primark seem to be getting in a lot of Disney clothes and there are many Little Mermaid tops which I absolutely adore! Even though I've bought nearly all of the tops, in the words of Ariel; "I want more."

Food

HiFi Light Rocky Road bars


Last week I started Slimming World and I noticed they had these bars and I decided to try them out. Honestly, they are amazing. They taste way better than Cadburys chocolate and literally don't have that many calories! Thank God these bars exist!

I am so in love with Collection 2000! Their products are of such great quality and so affordable! £3.99 for a powder that leaves amazing results? GIMME!

2)What is your favourite high end makeup brand?

I don't really have a favourite as I rarely buy expensive makeup. But a few days ago I bought the Hoola bronzer by Benefit so I guess I favour them.

3)What is your best childhood memory?

My favourite childhood memory is actually quite hilarious actually. We were at Disney and I was afraid to go into the Queen of Hearts maze because I thought she would be angry at me and stuff. So my Dad sat outside with me waiting for my Mom and brother who were in the maze. My Dad was trying to encourage me and was saying things like "We'll go in and beat up the Queen! I'll hold her and you do the kicking!" My Dad amazes me sometimes.

Definately H&M! Their clothes are so unique and I'm really fond of the clothes made by Divided. They are so colourful, quirky and unique.

I want to say the Red Light District but I guess I should be more serious, haha. Just send me a place with an amazing water park and i'll be a happy camper. But no sharks though! Seriously...no sharks.

8)What has been your biggest achievement in life so far?

I had a short story published a few years ago which was kind of a stepping stone into my career as an author. The story wasn't the best but people liked it. And you know what they say; you are your worst critic.

9)Who would play you in a film about your life?

I would definately choose the beautiful Helena Bonham Carter and the movie would be about my fabulous future! In case Helena can't do it, it'll be a movie about my life as a blogger and a YouTuber and Natalie Dormer would play me.

"I have an irrational fondness for you..."

Hey guys! It's me again! So today I want to talk about people and things I have an irrational fondness for meaning things that I'm fond of which don't really seem to be something to be fond of! I am a strange being sometimes but hopefully some of you out there have something you are irrationally fond of too!

Llamas


I have no idea where my fondness for llama's came from. I have a feeling it may have something to do with The Emperor's New Groove but I could be wrong. I find them really funny looking...like a horse mixed with a giraffe mixed with a sheep. Plus I love the llama song. Happy llama, sad llama, mentally disturbed llama, super llama, drama llama, big fat momma llama!


Panda eyes and messy hair



I don't know why but I find messy morning hair and panda eyes kind of attractive. Alot of people find it weird that I like it. But I don't know...Each to their own? I also used to be called panda for this.

Nigel Farage


We all know that Nigel Farage is a notorious racist who doesn't believe in free healthcare, wants to bring indoor smoking back, wants to legalise hunting and represents the rich. So why am I fond of him? To be honest; it's because of his face. He has the funniest face I've ever seen and he can pull some amusing expressions.

Endermen 


I literally searched the town for this cutie the other day! I remember when I used to play Minecraft years ago I was terrified of Endermen cause they made zombie sounds and I thought they would kill you if you got in close contact with them. But then I learned that you just have to avoid eye contact with them! Then they were made to make gurgling and chirps instead of zombie sounds. Now I love the adorable creatures!!

Onision


Onision seems to be the Katie Hopkins of YouTube. He says many hurtful things and contradicted himself many times in the past. But to be honest; it brings me amusement! I literally laughed a lot over his argument with Shane Dawson. Is that sadistic to say? I'm just being honest. I also pity him as he has depression which I feel is one of the reasons he can't hold his own.

So that is five things I have an irrational fondness for! What about you guys? 

Stay in touch with me on my:

Until next time guys and gals!

Am I a 'Common White Girl'?

1. Favorite Starbucks drink?


Caramel Cream Frappuccino. Although I only get them once in a while! I don't always go to Starbucks!

2. How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?


Depends really! If I do a proper job of makeup then i'm usually late for college. 

3. How many selfies do you take on a daily basis? 


I take many selfies! I have to get the right look. Sometimes I take good selfies but I can still find a fault with them. For example, my nose could look crooked or my eyes are too small. Also I take my selfies with an app called MegaPhoto so I have a filter ready for me.

4. How many IG followers and pics do you have? 


I have 287 Instagram followers and have 75 pictures posted. I basically use alot of hashtags. And I mean ALOT! #imattentionseeking #lookatmypictures #lookhowcutemyhairis

5. Do you ever say “LOL” or “OMG” out loud? 


I say LOL all the time. I never say OMG. I'll sound superficial then lol.

6. Do you wear the same clothing item more than once? 


Do you mean in a week or whatever or in general? I mean who buys a top from H&M to just throw it away after you've worn it once? Of course I wear my clothes more than once.

7. Are you racist? 

I like to say I am "Karen Smith".



8. How many tweets do you have? 


I have two twitter accounts so I'll use my Schmelala account to justify. I only have 190 tweets. But I only made this account recently. My other Twitter has about 900 tweets. 

9. Instagram, Twitter, or Tumblr? 


Instagram! I love it so much! 

10. What do you spend most of your time doing? 


I spend most of my time on YouTube watching videos I've never seen and even videos I've seen too many times!

11. Who are your favorite YouTubers? 


Jenna Marbles, PewDiePie, Jacksepticeye...You could also see my Favourite YouTube Channels post to see all the others.

12. How often do you do your nails? 


Not very often. I don't like when my nail polish gets all chipped. It looks trashy.

13. Are you a shopaholic? 


Oh my God, yes! I can't stop spending money on useless things! Yesterday I went to Argos and bought an Enderman plushie. I know I don't regret it now but I will regret it sooner of later!

14. How many times have you watched Mean Girls? 


I've lost count! I love it too much and it never gets old. "Four for you Glen Coco! You go Glen Coco!"

15. Do you own a lot of clothes? 

Yes but I think I only wear 20% of them. I only have some nice clothes.

16. Do you take pictures of your food before you eat it? 


Deepends really. If I'm in a resteraunt with a fancy meal then yeah! I'll take pictures of it and I'll even Instagram it! Filter and everything!!

17. Do you wear makeup everyday? 


If I'm going out or doing a YouTube video then yes. What's the point in wearing makeup if you're lazing around at home?

18. What are your average grades in school?


Well first semester I got an A but then again, my lecturer did say he let us all off easy. I'd say I barely scraped a pass!

19. How do you usually style your hair? 


I backcomb the shit out of my hair. I hate having flat and thin hair. I like it when its big and thick. It looks ridiculous but I don't care!

20. Do you always look presentable? 


Sometimes I do. Sometimes I don't. No one really says to me "Oh you look good today!" But no ones ever said "You look Ratchet today" neither. Well my family have...

March Favourites!

Movies and TV Shows

American Horror Story: Freakshow



I have to admit that Freakshow was an amazing season for AHS but it will never beat Asylum! It wasn't scary but it was pretty amazing and there characters were so entertaining to watch. My favourite character was probably Dandy cause crazy characters are the best! I'm super excited for Hotel!

The V/H/S Series



I'm a super big fan of horror movies but I only become really attached to the film it scares me to death. V/H/S is a movie about 4 or 5 different short horror films which cause the viewer to die if they are watched. Sounds like it's been done already but not in this way! I must admit though, I find the V/H/S and V/H/S 2 amazing unlike V/H/S: Viral because it literally made zero sense.

Comics

The Little Crooked Tale



The Little Crooked Tale is a web comic based on the class Disney Princesses (Aurora, Snow White, Ariel, Belle, etc). It takes place after all the their movies and the Villians are out to get revenge. And I don't revenge like putting them in eternal sleeps and stealing their voices. I mean the kind when the villians' slaughters all the protagonists' loves ones! It's a really dark take on Disney but it is really entertaining!

Games

Minecraft



Nothing beats building your dream city in Minecraft with a few snacks and some music playing in the background! I always have to make maps in creative mode. I prefer it when I have all I need! I love building my dream house and faffing about inside it!

Music



Lately I've been listening to 90's and 00's hits on Spotify. The nostaglia gives me such a good feeling and there are many different amazing songs such as You're not alone by Olive. Seriously the 90's and 00's give me such an amazing feeling!
