YOUR FRIENDS' ACTIVITY

    • Have you ever woken up in the morning after a particularly vivid dream, and thought: "what the hell was that all about?"

      Us too, which is why we decided to ask psychologist and dream specialist Ian Wallace to give us some expert insight. According to Ian, your dream might not be as unique and weird as you thought. There are many dreams that all of us experience at some point, but what do they mean? Lie back, turn off the lights and find out. The answers might surprise you…

      1. You're being chased
      "There is an issue in your waking life that you want to confront but are unsure how to do so. This issue is often a great opportunity for you to pursue a particular personal ambition. Although they may seem scary, your pursuers are actually bringing your attention to your unrealised talents in your own pursuit of fulfilment."

      2. Your teeth fall out
      "Your teeth symbolise how confident and powerful you feel, so some situation is causing your confidence to crumble in waking life.

    • There are many young faces willing to go great lengths to become the next top model, yet it seems high street retailer Next have an unlikely contender for their model search competition. Roland B.

      Roland Bunce, 24, from Belfast is currently ranked number one in the online voting competition, 'Make Me The Next Model 2011'. His position at the top spot is all thanks to various 'funny' online sites encouraging their readers to vote for Roland instead of traditional long and lean model types.

      Website The Poke is keen to interfere with the nationwide competition that closes on the 30th June 2011. Their post declares, 'With your help we can annoy the fashion industry, strike a blow for natural beauty.'

      They also had support from blog bitterwallet.com who asked their readers, 'Fancy screwing around with Next's dream of continuing to sell us expensive clothes, by draping them over stupidly beautiful dunderheads? Your luck's in.'

    • It is hard not to notice that the UK has become Pippa Middleton-obsessed. Before the Royal Wedding, the nation was focused on following the every move of bride-to-be Kate; but ever since the big day our interest has shifted and a new star has emerged - Pippa.

      Now Kate's younger sibling has been thrown onto the world stage: statistics show she is the most talked about Middleton in the media this week eclipsing Prince William's bride four weeks after 24 million Brits watched the wedding.

      Since Clarence House requested that the media respect William and Kate's privacy on their honeymoon, coverage of Kate has dropped 94 per cent. As a result, Pippa found herself in the spotlight, with over 60 stories broadcast and printed about her since the Royal Wedding.

      Brian Merron from Kantar Media intelligence, who conducted the study, told The Daily Telegraph, "It comes as no surprise that Kate's media profile rose to such heights immediately

    • Justin Bieber's given false hope to teen girls everywhere with his weird new perfume ad.

      In the commercial, a girl (played by Dree Hemingway) sprays the singer's new perfume 'Someday' on her neck and suddenly the Bieb himself appears behind her!

      Things get creepy when the mop-haired pop star begins sniffing and gently muzzling her neck. The pair then ascend into the sky (is this meant to be heaven?), float around a bit and he gives her a piggy back.

      Before long we're back to the lucky lady's bedroom, and, after sharing one more kiss, Bieber makes a sharp exit. The cad didn't even leave his number…

      See the video below:

      The message seems to be: Spray yourself with the new scent, and - if you're a Belieber - an angel-like Justin will swoop down from the clouds and whisk you away. Sounds like false advertising to us.

      Here's what the pint-sized pop star had to say about the fragrance: "Let's be real, the way a girl smells

    • For most of us, as soon as a pregnancy is announced, the gender guessing game begins. And while some like to keep the sex of their baby a secret until the child is born, one couple has taken a decidedly different approach on revealing the sex of their offspring.

      A Canadian couple from Toronto have decided to keep the gender of their four-month-old baby a secret in order to raise what they call a 'genderless' child. Storm will be raised as neither a boy nor girl and will choose a sex when he or she grows up.

      Kathy Witterick and David Stocker have only revealed Storm's gender to close members of the family, including their two young sons, one friend and the midwives who delivered the child.

      After Storm was born on New Year's Day, the parents sent out an email to the rest of their friends and loved ones, writing: "We've decided not to share Storm's sex - a tribute to choice in a place of limitation, a stand up to
