The question: “What do I need to do to love my sweet, sweet self today?”
The answer: creating a psychic bubble o’ protection.
So, I’ve been working on a brand-new-book-idea which I’m head over Westwood heels in heart with, and I rarely share my book ideas because I get scared that the really good stuff will escape from my head if I actually talk about it, but today, for some reason, I decided to share a li’l bit of the brand-new-book-idea.
Wrong move.
I was shot down before I’d even finished the sentence. ‘You can’t write about that!’ my friend said, ‘you should really just stick to what you know, Lisa.’ Now, I wasn’t expecting her to blow trumpet fanfares and declare it the best idea in the entire world, but well…I wasn’t expecting that either. Thing is, taking a step back from the situ, I can see that she was probably not the person to share good news with - she’s got a touch o’ the grumps at the moment and isn’t able to share any kind of happy goodness with anyone - but it did give me a kick-butt reminder to create a psychic shield to protect my sweet self against other people’s negative energies.
Whenever you’re in a negative situ - your boss snaps, your parental gets mad, a shop assistant is rude - imagine a bubble surrounding your body (mine’s pink, natch) that absolutely nothing can penetrate, it will help what’s negative simply bounce off it.

my friend is a bit like that when she’s grumpy. another just doesn’t think before she speaks. yesterday when we were lining up for class she was saying how maddy wasn’t there so she would have to talk to me.now i could have been insulted but i just smiled. she also told me she wish she didn’t care about her apperence like me. the worst has been yesterday when i went to see the school counciler because i have some really bad teachers. i was telling her about it because she doesn’t like that teacher either and she said “you went to see him because you have mr clarke?” i was really upset because going to see our counsiler is just like having a really good conversation without you friends giggling in the middle. you don’t have to get to the point of selfharm like she did. anyway. long comment short, you need a bubble, just smile at people, if you want tell them ever-so-politley that they were wrong.
thanks lisa xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My friend is a bit - i mean a lot - like that. She doesn’t like people that are different either, she gets cross when I even metion the word ‘vegetarian’ (which I am) and she moans about E-V-E-R-T-H-I-N-G. She even moaned about her BIRTHDAY which was actually quite good, she got loads of prezzies and went to the theatre!
:>

Great iea Lisa!
I have a bhit of a problem please could somebody help 
All the girls at my school wear mascara, now I don’t want to follow the crowd or anything but I’d like to wear it now and again the only problem is that I have blonde eyelashes so if I ever wear it, it really stands out and all the girls are all bitchy like “Oh my god Emma your wearing mascara!” so what colour would you reccomend for me! Thanks xx

My bubble is… red. Really daring, with a ‘Don’t cross me!’ vibe, but it’s very classy and elegant too. It’s a shame I have to keep it on all the time though.
By the way, do you know when the Beauty*licious comp winner will be announced?

Yay! I love that there are now a whole bunch of us pink ladies walking round with protective pink bubbles o’ love - you girls are blimmin’ awesome - love you!
Miss Emma - are you allowed to wear mascara to school? I never was…Don’t ever let anyone make you feel bad for wearing/doing/being anything but you ‘k? But if YOU look in the mirror and think that your mascara is too dark, then I’d suggest going to a department store, picking a friendly looking lady - I really like the girls on the Benefit counter - they’re always a li’l kooky, and they’ll be able to match you up with exactly the colour you need - get them to write it down and then go to Superdrug and look for a cheaper version - as I’m super-dark, I don’t really know about blondes, but my BFF is blonde and I bought her a really nice brown shade from Boots No 7 for christmas - hope that helps, doll!

mm! my friend is always nagging me, and j’ adore the Lola books, and I’m pretty much just like her, even when I’m writing this, I’m listening to Cyndi Lauper, girls just wanna have fun! and my friend keeps saying “what the hell? it was the flippin’ 80’s! what about Justin Bieber?” (OK, so he’s on the ish scale, but, hey.) and stuff like, “God! get a grip! Lola Love is a book!” but i love Lola, she’s amazing, if i want to like her, I’ll like her! So my bubble is pink, and has glitter on it, and a table of cupcakes in it! yum!
