Starting Over

It's not quite New Year's but I'm starting my resolutions a bit early this year! Career-wise I've been given the opportunity for a fresh start. To go hand in-hand with this, I've decided to rebrand and relaunch this site.

X-Men VS Lady Gaga's Born This Way Video

What do you get when you combine an iconic superhero force and an iconic pop diva? Quite possibly the best thing since... well, ever! Well perhaps that's an exaggeration, although fans might agree. Still worth watching if you're not as big of a geek as I am.

Our Town - What a Dump? Mystery of the Matresses!

Southall is a town In West London and one I regularly travel through. For the most part it's largely a residential area. During my time there I'm amazed at the things I see. One thing has stood out for me though, and now that I've become familiar with the area I've realised it's not something that will change unless action is taken. For some unknown reason the entire town seems to be littered with mattresses!

Confessions of a Crisp Junkie. PopChips to the Rescue!

As you may know from some of my recent posts I have started a bit of a health kick recently. So far I'm down 25lbs but I've got a long way to go. I've already posted about how MyFitnessPal and Graze have helped with my progress, now I'll introduce you to my secret weapon, PopChips! Find out what they are below but if you want to see my post about the recent controversy surrounding them and spokesman, Ashton Kutcher then click here. Newest spokesperson is Katy Perry. After your done reading here check out the PopChips website.

 

Pop goes the ad campaign - Ashton Kutcher, media literacy, racism, and PopChips

with the amount of work, money and manpower that goes into organising an ad campaign these days you wouldn't think it possible to go quite so wrong as the recent one for PopChips, featuring The Butterfly Effect actor, Ashton Kutcher. Nor would you think it possible that a racist advert appear in the media... well maybe it didn't, that part is subject to opinion if you ask me, but either way there's been an outcry over it so I thought I would take a closer look.

Ad Appreciation - "Push To Add Drama" Button (TNT)

This one pretty much speaks for itself, a very cool ad that you MUST watch if you haven't already!

Thanks to the lovely Al over at Al's Food and Fitness Adventures, I have finally started a bit of a health kick and am determined to shed some serious poundage. I’ve followed her blog for a while and have been inspired by her writing, like you have I’m sure, as well as her inspirational before and after photos. I’ve also picked up a lot of tips along the way and now it’s time to apply them to my routine. As suggested by Alex I joined MyFitnessPal.com and since it comes with a handy app for the iPhone and others, it’s turning out to be amazing. You can read my very own review of it here.

Website Review - MyFitnessPal.com

The subject of this post is the review of a great website I recently found out about. My health/fitness/weight are out of control and I finally WANT to do something about it. Because of this site it finally seems doable.

The Big Mystery! Cool Campaigns - "What's that Flavour?" (Walkers Crisps)

You've got to love Walkers really. Okay so they've made their crisps "healthy" so they don't taste as good and nowdays some say you're often considered lucky to get more than 7 crisps in a bag... But they do come up with some fun promos. The most recent of which is the "What's that flavour?" promotion where they have released 3 new flavours to the public but haven't identified what those flavours actually are. They have then challenged us to take a guess and as if the intrigue wasn't enough, Walkers are offering £50,000 to winning guessers who connect with them on their site walkers.co.uk or via Facebook.
