Disorderly

I don't know what's happening today.
I've tried to do some Winter's Tale context.
I've done plenty of thinking.
I'm up for going out but I'm not entirely sure what is going on.
So I'm posting early so as to not miss out on the post if I end up going out, if at all.
It's the end of 2008.
Wow.
Baffling.
I have to make a list of things I want to complete within the next year.
I'll do that tomorrow.

:D

Nahniiight.

Deliberate

I was looking at Sarah's photobucket today... instead of working clearly.
My favourites include:




Mental.

I'm really sad that tomorrow is the last official fiveawesomeguys video.
I'm a freak I admit it but really.
It's over!

I'm enjoying a good music burst from Fleet Foxes as recommended by Josh and provided by my dear cousin.

:D

Going to watch Napoleon Dynamite now.

Doodling

Today was an art day.
Tom Milsom just lost the game for all of us on BlogTV.
Ouch, now you loose!

Dude

My celebratory period is over at last.
Christmas, Second Christmas, Birthday and Third Christmas are over.
We travelled back up from Leeds to have "lunch" at Nana's at half THREE.
The Top Gear special was classic.
I need to start on my homework.
Asshats.

My friends win.

Ts'all

xxxxxxx

Despite...

... having internet access yesterday I didn't post a blog.
... " " I didn't watch the last ever LAG.
... having some hilarious stuff to recount, recount it.
Instead I went to a lil party at my Auntie's house and talked computers and music with my cousins and Uncle.
It was fab, at one point there were 5 laptops on in the room and nearly everyone had a digital camera out.
Mum got annoyed at the anti-socialness of it so then we played "Articulate".

The crackers had numbered bells in them so we could play tunes.
I got about 12 different books for my birthday.

Memorable quotations from yesterday include:
"It's bunny that Black F..." oh, that was my Auntie, Matt found that absolutely hilarious.
"Oh yeah Matt emailed in to Bid up Tv and got a mention"
"No you sit there this chair is too hard for you"

So there you go!

Devouring books

The title for today's blog was once written into an English essay I wrote.
It's what I do.
Although these days I find it very hard to find the time.
When a book is good enough I make time.
When I was reading the last Potter book (OK, OK, it was the summer holidays) I stayed in bed all day to read it.
When I read the Twilight saga (forgive me) I read them all in under 2 weeks often reading while eating and in the car and in lessons.
I read the last two Young Bond books in under a week.
(I used to read up to 5 books a week but it's no longer practical!)
I got Paper Towns yesterday and I finished it today.
It's beautiful. It's everything you need in a book.
I would lend it to everyone but I don't think I ever want to let it go!
Seriously guys buy it.
Hazel's reading Katherines right now.
Life is GOOD.
I'm 18 tomorrow and only writing this because miraculously there is someone in the vicinity with unprotected wireless. The fools!
Mwhahah.

Well that's all I have time for, once again.
I've got to upload a video.
BYE!

Thursday 25 December 2008

Don't forget today!

I woke up after one of the nicest dreams ever.
I felt happy.
I realised John Green must be a genius even more than previously if I can feel so happy when I finally understand the Black Santa joke.
I LOVED the Dr Who Christmas special.
Our oven broke.
We had to drive to Nana's to cook the Yorkshires then drive it all back.
I got a TARDIS today.
I need sleep.
I loved Wallace and Grommit.
I'm going.

God Bless.

Didn't remember

Yesterday either so I'm just saying sorry, to myself really.

I'll write a proper good Christmas one later.

:)

Wednesday 24 December 2008

Damn

I forgot to write last night.
I was far too enthusiastic to read The Book Thief and closed my computer down.

Before that I was glued to Jigsawace.

Previous to that I went driving in Mum's car as the insurance to cover me is my Christmas present.
It was awful... I thought I could drive but the controls in that car were horrible.
Seems I'll need a lot more practice!

Technically this blog was for yesterday.

Bye.

Monday 22 December 2008

Driving

I had my mock driving test today and although it was not amazing my test is still going ahead.
:)
I did some sorting and found a dead woodlouse in my room.
There's still so much more to do though before I can start any homework and such.
I watched Pan's Labyrinth today.
It was so long!
But quite good although I don't think I'll watch it again in a hurry.
Heroes is on tonight which is odd but I suppose it had to be rescheduled.
I'm getting excited now.
I just remembered I need to do a bit of video today!
Eeep.
Well that's all.

Toodles.

Dustbin Baby

I failed a day away again.
Sleeping till 9 is good.
Reading for an hour is lush.
Listening to Jon Richardson and Matt Ford is classic.
Especially if meanwhile you are playing Dinglepop.
Tidying your room is not as fun which is why I stopped after half an hour.
After a lunch of soup and watching Outnumbered I carried on internetting.
An interpretation of Jacqueline Wilson's Dustbin Baby was on TV and it was really good. Much better than the Double Act one a few years ago.
Then we watched Love Actually.
Meanwhile I drew the fiveawesomeguys thanks to Johnny's inspired blog.

I'm going for a wash early and going to read "The Book Thief" for a good hour.
I have a driving test mock tomorrow so mustn't get up too late!

Lushness.

Dinner Dance

I know it's Sunday but to me it is just an extension of Saturday.

My feet don't hurt that much because I had to get small heels because I cannot actually stand in regular ones but my toes are a bit squashed.

My ears are ringing from the hugely loud music.

I started today with my first lie in in months. Bring on the rest of the holidays!
I went to the hair dressers at 2 and ended up getting curls with rollers under one of those old granny perm hair dryers!

The food was OK tonight. A hearty soup. Turkey wrapped in bacon with roasties and veg.
The broccoli or what ever it was looked crazy... it was sort of asparagus and broccoli in one plant.
Oh and a slice of apple pie. It was rumoured one guy ate seven slices because he was promised a kiss from a girl. I feel very sorry for that girl.

I know my dancing is terrible but I just went for it anyway.

I think I'll put up some photos later.
Once I've slept.

I love life.

Friday 19 December 2008

Do I dazzle you? Frequently.

I know that's not from Twilight (I think it's Eclipse) and I don't mean to be all fan girly but OH MY GOODNESS!

I had one of those amazing days.
Even people saying "Is he a vampire?" when Jake first came on screen couldn't really annoy me.

I'm going to watch ITC in a bit but I really need to restart my computer so IE will work because my other YouTube acc is logged onto that.

Ahhhh dear.

LOVE YOU ALL!

Ding Dong Merrily on High

It was present day at school today.
It was lovely.
I ruddy love my friends and I don't say it enough.
Alicia with her Rubix cube.
"I don't mean to alarm anybody but I think I've cracked it."

Also, at lunch time today, I had pasta from the snack bar and they clearly gave me the veggie one instead of the bolognase. Then I bribed some lowersixth boys into doing my prefect duty for me with Santa lollies.

It was also the school Christmas concert tonight.
Went OK in my opinion.

"Imagine if it was just #lightly# plaited?"


I cannot wait till tomorrow. TWILIGHT!

D.F.T.B.A

Hazel and I have posted our Project for Awesome video and if anyone is reading this go comment on it. Actually, go watch all the other P4A videos too and comment and rate them as well.

Today was full of funny moments such as:

"Hey cattle what are you doing? I'm lowing"
"You're called Howard?!"
"Sorry I'm just a little bit enthusiastic"

Eeeeh deary me.

I'm sure this eve will bring equally hilarious antics but I want to post this now to promote our video a little.

Thanka all!

Edit - I've had a beautiful catch up chat tonight with Josh and Lolly from OBU. Ohhh I love the internet!

Tuesday 16 December 2008

Dancing, in particular the YMCA

In psychology we talked crime.
In English I had to sort out a kerfuffle.
In the next English lesson we had mince pies, Blackadder and japes.
General RE was the time for Christmas cards.
In our last fee we played consequences then walked into town.
Jen and I did a bit of shopping and then I met my mere and soeur.
KFC for tea then a Cadet party.

"The L Factor" at school tonight was absolutely fabulous.
I videoed most of it and it will soon be on YouTube.
I laughed rather a lot.
I'll never forget Mr. Murray's face, ever.

How I'd love to waffle but once again I just need to snooze.

Nightums.

Matilda-isms ftw.

Byron for the loose tonight.

I loved today it was one of those happy days.

Not much happened but it was a great not much rather than a rubbish one.

:D

I think I'm going to Sing-along Hairspray in March. Get innnn.

Toodleoo Edna!

Sunday 14 December 2008

Doing homework.

Is even harder at this time of year.

I've watched the Dr. Who Christmas special from last year again.
Watched The Notebook.

Hazel and I made our Project for Awesome video for Wednesday.

I love the internet.
People think I'd be able to cope without my mobile. They would be nearly right (except for when I'm out and about unless I could have constant 10p's and a reliable memory for numbers) but without the internet I think my world would collapse. Like they thought it was going to on the ITC the other day.

I've got a trashy mag from the clothes show left to read while I listen to the surgery on Radio 1.

S'laters.

Saturday 13 December 2008

Download the Jon Richardson Podcast.

I've been meaning to make this a title of a blog for a bit.
Today seemed suitable.

I got up late as I went to bed very late last night.
I had a much needed talk for sorting things out with a certain someone.
Thank you for that, it will be fine.

I then had to go get shoes for the Dinner Dance.
They're nothing special but still O.K.
I watched Wayne's World while wrapping Christmas presents.
I haven't done my work.
I've edited my new video.
I ate Chinese food and got this in my fortune cookie.

":) Seeing's believing, but feeling's the truth. :)"

I feel a bit odd, I'm having to rethink a fair chunk.
I'm happy though and that is sort of unexpected.
Good though.
It means I know that things will work the way we've agreed.

Oh. G'bye.

Friday 12 December 2008

Do you have the time to listen to me whine?

We had some sort of confession service this morning at school, the first time ever, and it was rather strange.
The priest kept pausing in strange places - mid sentence.

Psychology was just, regular.
Art was art.
My frees were strange.
Driving was good.
Watched Big Bang Theory when I got in which was immense.

We had our end of term Rangers party with the Wii projected on the wall which was fantastic.

I've got a video to edit.

ITC was hilarious indeed.

"Fasten the seatbelts on your ears Roy because I'm about to take them for the ride of their life."
"Sometimes I want to kiss your mind."

Thursday 11 December 2008

Difficult to breathe due to laughter.

In a bit I'll got to bed.
Right now I'm catching up with the internet.
About an hour ago I was at school laughing my trolleys off at our quiz team "Volvic".
Such answers such as "Saudi Arabia", "George Best" and "Solomon Burk" were heard.
Earlier than that I was at Caitlin's eating copious amounts of fish and chips and watching Dr. Who.
Previously I was sat listening to the school orchestra.
English, Art and English preceded that.

I didn't like today until about 4 o'clock.

It got SO much better.
I'm still giggling.

I need sleep though so this is once again all.

Till tomorrow!

Dr. Pepper

For Sarah's Birthday I gave her 8 cans of Dr. Pepper.
The look on her face was priceless.

I've had a rather strange day today but now that its the end of it I feel much happier.
Things are finally sorting themselves out.
I think.

Well the whole school thing was not really worth it today but afterwards was great.
The Chinese eat as much as you want has decided to celebrate Christmas so had crackers.

I've had a, maybe not lovely, but totally needed, talk with someone and that's sorted now.

So are the photos I'm sending to Leeds.

I, once again, don't have time for this.

Didi you miss me?

I just took a trip down South for an interview that went surprisingly well.
Today I went to the clothes show.

Two fulfilling days in different ways.

I spent a bit too much though.
Never mind.
What's money for ehy?!

I'd love to natter but I'm ridiculously tired.

G'night.

Dugong

It's the cow of the sea.
Dewgong on the other hand is the evolution of Seel.

My life is changing, not overly noticeably but it is.
Tomorrow I'm undertaking one of those stepping stones in life.

I have my first Uni interview.
I'm growing up.

HELP!

Oh and Hazel and I both posted new videos today.

"You came into my life, you cannot separate yourself."

Oh I hope I can get internet access somewhere tomorrow even if its in a café somewhere.

I'm not taking my laptop.

I would if it was just Reading but on Tues its the Clothes Show in Birmingham.

Woah.

Then it's catch-up, choir and Sarah's BD Wednesday.

Eurf.

I love life.

Dicko's Birthday Meal.

I had an odd day today.
Failed again at finding a dinner dance dress!

But the slug and lettuce was fun this evening.

I need to sort my portfolio out tomorrow as I've got an interview on Monday...

Both Hazel and I have made a 51 things in our rooms video.

They'll be up tomorrow too.

Gootennacht.

Friday 5 December 2008

Do YOU know anything about grouse moors?

I do now after this nice guy called John came to Rangers to talk about it.
He was really mild mannered and calm and nice and reminded me of Bruno from OBU.
He was also wearing a tweed suit.

I'm so tired it is unreal.

IT Crowd : "Ich Bin Eine NERD"

Oh dear.
I need to buy a dress for the dinner dance tomorrow.

Danger! Snow!

Today has been possibly one of the most surreal of my entire existence.

Firstly I wake up thinking, "Miss Slane said we'd have had a blizzard, I wonder how deep the snow is." While at the same time Chris Moyles was spouting garbage that was, albeit keeping me awake, making my head hurt.

So I looked out of my window and was thoroughly disappointed because 4 cm of snow meant no lie in and no snow day.

During the regular morning hassle I was alerted to the fact that the so called 'Edward Cullen' was on TV.
Don't get me wrong, I'm as excited as the next fan girl about Twilight, but boys in books are better. He is NOT Edward and his laugh creeps me out.

Our car couldn't get up even a teeny tiny bank so we went back home and set out to get a bus instead. Our Dad being a teacher made us at least attempt to get to school. We ended up getting a lift from another teacher instead.

While at school we were trapped inside hearing rumours that all public transport had been stopped and watching a blizzard - at the same time listening to Emily try and learn #pah-twarr#.

We hear a window smash and someone had very nearly fallen through a 2nd story window.

No-one did much as lessons were so sparse.

Once I got home I watched last night's Big Bang Theory.
That show just gets better and better.

I'm not able to concentrate.

Dodgey ear

I woke up this morning and I couldn't really hear through my left ear and since then it has really got on my nerves.

I have formed a love/hate relationship with sporcle.com and I have also realised that I have a ridiculously high self control rate in some cases.

I read and watch A LOT of things on the internet and I envy the was some people craft their blogs or what-have-you. However, I think I shall continue to type in short snappy sentences.

I crave a snow day.
I need that extra time to myself to sort.

Heroes was good.
Saving Big Bang till tomorrow.

Love love love.

Don Juan

We finished Canto II today.
Which means we now have to finish the context questions.

G-B told us that we need suffering in our lives because it is only temporary and overall it is better.

I'm going to get an hour or so of this done, shower, edit my Art essay then take some time out to read.

I know I have A LOT to do but I'm so tired I need time out.

I was going to do one of those music shuffle quizzes but I'm not.

I really need to edit Hazel and I's new video but I cannot.

Oh well.
Nightingales.

Dedication

Would you believe this is my 70th post.
This is crazy.

I haven't written much recently and in the past when I've written I always ended up just blabbering about my day.

So here goes!

I woke up with my right arm aching and no desire to get out of my toasty warm bed and into the cold cold room.
Dad's car wouldn't start until we threatened it with the R.A.C. it then lived.
I got an essay back in Psychology that I hadn't understood and was terrible so I redid that.
We watched a video about Ted Bundy which was horrible and then talked about crime.
In my free I did some of my art essay as I did in art 4th.
In English we did more of "The Winter's Tale" which is good but I was so tired I started to fall asleep.

Have only really done homework since then too.

Both John Green and JohnnyDurham have posted this survey in their blogs.

This always reminds me of John's books because its the first place I heard the phrase properly.
I say "stop being so American!".

Daniel

Food or wet tarmac or lovely boy.

53. Butter, plain, or salted popcorn?
SWEET. Which for some reason wasn't a listed option.

54. What's something that really bugs you?
The amount of time things takes. Good things go too fast and bad things too slow. Or some things that take up too much time. Also the fact I get annoyed by time, as I cannot change it.
