Perrie’s Alphabet: Candids

[zaynffs-blog]

I suppose that’s what happens when you’ve been in a relationship with someone who only cares about themselves, Perrie. The people that I hang out around me actually appreciate me for once and trust me to know that I wouldn’t throw them under the bus when things got hard. You wouldn’t exactly know what that felt like, right? 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

There’s no need to tell me things I already know about you. I can’t say I do know what it’s like to get that kind of treatment from you though, so you’re right. I’m just hoping you learned something and the next poor soul you reel in has some sense of protection over her own heart.

[emerywyd]

Sometimes I find myself just going with the flow, but then we get on the stage and hearing the fans sing back songs has become one of my most favorite feelings ever. I would have never imagined this happening to me, of all the kids back home. It’s absolutely mind blowing. I’ve been behind on most things these days, my bad. I’m pretty sure there was a point where Weird People was one of most replayed songs. Oh, our album sucks in comparison to yours, but thanks anyway. 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

It’s positively one of the best things I have ever had the luck to experience. Especially when it’s a song that’s just been out for a few days, and they somehow know almost all the words nonetheless. I’m glad we’re getting the Hood seal of approval, at least. Hey now, that’s like comparing a camel to a horse. They’re completely different but both very useful.

[thecrusso]

True, but I was hoping to postpone that event as much as I possibly could. I was shooting for the time when I’ve got a rocking chair and hopefully some grandchildren bickering at me for something they want. I suppose you won much more than the actual bet entitled. Even if things hadn’t played out like they did, you could say that you tried. Now you’ve taken the fun out of the game, baby girl. I’m afraid I’ll have to wait till a better time. 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

Are you going to sit there knitting as well? Cursing about how everything was much better when you were young and chasing rascals running across your lawn? Because that’s something I could absolutely see you do in the future. It’s funny how the tables can turn in moments like those. That’s just you trying to get away from giving me all the compliments I truly deserve. You blasted brat.

5/10 gifsets of Perrie

[mixingwithswift]

[louisofallwisdom]

It was genuinly gross to stand next to, the odour hit me nose like a wall. It was hard to keep breathing. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t shed a few tears backstage. I never expected it to be that emotional. We need to work on this, it’d be sick. We could even make it an original song, write together. That sound absolutely pleasant. I suppose so, I haven’t heard much about it yet. They’re keeping me in the dark as usual. It’ll run the surprise. Or so they say.

[missperriewinkle-blog]

Now there, Louis, be kind. You never know when there will be an army of cards showing up and reprimanding you for using your words a bit too freely, no? Before you know it, he’ll have your head off. But as the lyrics so fittingly state, ‘this is not the end’. What would the fans say if they knew even you were to get upset about something like that? Having you on the team, I already know now that that will be a song to remember. You’re a bit of a lyrical genius, honestly. I’m guessing Harry’s in charge of the big celebration then? Just hope it won’t be a repeat of last year’s costume party; I have used up all my ideas since Halloween.

[louisofallwisdom]

Bit disturbing to see Simon’s sweaty titties though, gotta say. Your performance had me shaking me arse left to right, it was absolutely amazing. I still vote on a collab one day, I’m making it a rule that it has to happen. What are you going to do for Christmas then, love?

[missperriewinkle-blog]

I don’t know, I didn’t keep pay much attention to them. Are you kidding? You lads doing History was one of the most emotional things I’ve ever seen, with the slideshow in the back and whatnot. But yes, absolutely. I’m sure the girls would be over the moon about that. I think I’ll just be at home with my family, seeing everyone and getting some quality time down. What about you, then? Any grand birthday plans?

[obvscara-blog]

It must be a really nice feeling to be given an opportunity to perform on the very same stage that you started on. Don’t tell the boys this, but I’d rather see you girls perform any day. I’m all about that girl power, honestly. Do you have any plans for Christmas?

[missperriewinkle-blog]

It is, although there’s undeniably a sense of pressure from having to do well. You can’t very well come back to a place like X Factor and do absolute shit. Really? I’m honoured, I have to say. I won’t tell them, I promise; I’m extremely biased towards our group as well. Nothing spectacular, other than spending some time at home with the family. What about you, love?

[gtgluke]

Taking a trip down memory lane is always bittersweet. Coming back to where you started is a bit of fresh air and a true eye opener when you realize how successful you’ve been since then. I still can’t believe the year is almost over. Feels like we were celebrating the beginning of it just last week.

[missperriewinkle-blog]

It is, but I think it’s important as well. There’s no good in forgetting where you started out, is there? I know, I still remember New Years as if it was just the other day and now we’re almost at the new one.

[emerywyd]

The X Factor was your version of what Youtube was for us. We kinda owe our success to those two things, and it strikes a few feelings whenever I see the All About You cover in my suggestions. Glad to hear things are still going great for you, though. There were some sick tunes on your last album, you know. I don’t think I’ve been able to congratulate you on that just yet.

[missperriewinkle-blog]

It’s absolutely mad to think about, isn’t it? We’ve all gotten so incredibly far in the past few years and thinking back on it, it feels like almost no time at all has passed. I don’t think you have either, but thank you. Sounds Good Feels Good isn’t half-bad, either.

[thecrusso]

Don’t say that or you’ll have me covered in gray hairs from the stress in seconds. I’m really enjoying my life right now so I’m hoping that it continues to be just as amazing the rest of my life. I didn’t know that, but that’s actually really amazing. You’ve won yourself million of iPhones now, don’t you think? I haven’t got anything bad to say about you, so what do you expect? 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

The grey hairs will come sooner or later, love, better take it while you can still make a thing out of it. The iPhones are the least of the victory of it, which I actually never even got from my friends to begin with. Fine, fine, just go ahead and get all the compliments possible out.

[zaynffs-blog]

It’s not really like you’d be able to perform elsewhere. I’m half-surprised that the public still knows who you are these days. Though, it’s nice to hear that you still have to rely on my old band for some recognition. 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

Does the need to always come off as superior ever get tiring for you, Zayn? Because I can assure you, it does to those around you. Perhaps it’s less of having to rely on them as it is actually enjoying them, and the performances. Or is something as humane as that a foreign concept for you these days?

[thecrusso]

Time always has a knack of moving fast, especially when you’re having so much fun and you’re keeping yourself busy. I would love to see you and the rest of the girls on stage with gray hair and still killing with all the amazing vocals. Truly, you’ve got to think that you’re making more than just one person happy. You’ve got to have countries worth of admirers, in my opinion. 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

I’m fairly sure it seems to be moving faster as you grow older, as well. With that in mind, it’s no wonder these past four years have actually flown by. Did you know I first applied to X Factor as the result of a bet? It was going to win me and iPhone, and now I’m here. Pretty wicked to think of. Oh, stop it, you’re surely just saying that to flatter me. To which you’re doing a good job, I have to admit.

[thecrusso]

I hardly think having a nice throwback to where you’ve come from will ever stop being emotional, no matter how cold hearted you are. You’ve had such a nice run since then, and I hardly doubt that I’m only the fan out there. With that being said, I’m also sure that you were not the only one to enjoy both performances. It’s a bit strange to think that Christmas is next week. It almost feels like it was summertime just yesterday. 

[missperriewinkle-blog]

Probably so, especially when it feels like time moves so fast. It was the beginning of the rest of our lives, after all. If we can make even one person happy, then that’s good enough for me, really. I’m glad you’re enjoying the music; the more girls out there, the better! Right? This past year has gone by so freaking quick, it’s hard to keep up.

[xjemmaxsimmonsx-deactivated2016]

I can just imagine how emotional that ride really is, but also how amazing that feeling is. I watch the show and it just seems so crazy, like everyone is stressed and just ready to crack at any moment. I missed the finale, but then again it was the UK x factor, so I didn’t get the channel. But I seen all the photos.

[missperriewinkle-blog]

I can safely say that we have moved on to some bigger and better things by now, but there will always be a sense of being back at the beginning on that stage. I’m sure you can catch up on it somewhere! There are usually a bunch of streaming sites that have it, if you just search around for a bit.

[missperriewinkle-blog]

Being back on the X Factor stage is never going to stop being emotional, is it? As well as how it’s never going to stop being one of the most exciting things ever. All in all, it was a good finale and I’m exceptionally proud over the lovely 1D performance, that just seems to keep getting better.

This means it’s almost Christmas though.
