30th April

The last day of April today, this month has gone so quickly ,and now its about to be May! scary stuff. Had our last whole school assembly on friday, which i found personally quite disappointing, we sang Jerusalem, but the guy played a different accompaniament (I spelt that wrong) to usual, so it sounded weird, but we sang it afterwards with mr jenkins playing, which made it moderately better. The MP Steven Jackson came in and did an assembly on trade, afterwards there was a sixth form discussion which was fun, me and andrena had frees so we went along. He was such a typical politician, he wouldn't give you any figures you asked for (although a lot of statistics), and he contradicted himself blatantly at several different points. If I had to vote and I lived in the Peterborough constituency I would definitely not vote for him. lol, although the others are probably no better.

Didn't do much on Saturday at Colemans, it was really quiet we hardly made £850, but we pottered round doing odd jobs, did tuck shop - terrible happening - freddos have gone up to 15p!!! thats a 50% increase, can you believe it? its an outrage, and we are all shocked, the most terrible part of theis cadbury scheme is that they used to write 10p on the packets, but now that they have gone up to 15p, they have just left the packets blank, so it looks as though it is the shops fault. We all think that Cadburys will put the price down though; we used to go through six boxes of freddos a weeks, but since the price changed on a Thursday loads of people have been boycotting them, and so cadburys wont even sell two thirds of the amount that they usually do, which they would need to, to break even. Saturday evening we went to Watkins' and watched reservoir dogs, it was quite good, although also slightly disturbing, especially when the guy had his ear cut off, i thought it was really clever how the camera didn't show it straight after it had happened, cos you were waiting for it to be shown and it wasn't, if that makes sense. The sound track is quite brill too including one song that I have been trying to find for ages, argh, what was it called? "hooked on a feeling" i think - its really cool, they used it in Ally McBeal, lol.

Slept the night at Allie's and then went on the ten past ten, went home and revised a bit, before then coming back into town to have hot choclate with some people plus beth who couldn't make the previous night, it was fun. After coffee we went shopping for a bit and i realise that i really want new clothes and shoes (althoguh i would probably never wear the shoes..., anyway, so I have decided I am going clothes shopping on wednesday, perhaps, or it might just turn into shopping for a dress to wear to the leavers dinner. I wanted to wear my pink one (some might remeber it, it was the one I wore to do the sixth form revue in, and my eighteeenth birthday) but the material is quite heavy, its not really quite right, so I'll see what I can find; I also want a new skirt, so I'm sure my trip will be fun etc. Ooh, I'm gettign my haircut on Thursday as well, which I have been needing to do for ages. lol. Its all happening! lol.

Not much else has happened to me; update on Nick, I go through days of feeling he sucks and days where I still think that he's amazing (i try to focus on him sucking; obviously in the metaphorical sense of the word - why I'm not deleting that sentence is beyond me). Still can't find anyone else attractive, which is my major downfall, but I'm trying very hard, so you never know... lol, another update; everyone keeps being really rude to me, I have started to retalliate using rude words, it isn't like me, although what with that and taking bigt bites of my sandwhiches it lloks like I'm just a new person! lol. Hope everyone is well and is having a fun bank holiday weekend!!!

26th april

So how cool was Alex's then? lol, it was the best tuesday night i have had in a while, i can safely say! I would mention all the people that were there, but there were way too many names, lol, and for anyone that didn't come - shame on you! lol. The highlights were probably the cakes, ratchett screwdriver and no one being sick, even though some people (not mentioning any names) had a surprising amount of absinth (is it spelt with a "y"?), anyway, luckily it finished quite early, and I got to bed about midnight and was quite awake this morning although am quite tired now. However, it has all been fun, and I think everyone enjoyed themselves, anyone feel free to send me photos, i forgot my camera, and so don't have any!

Haven't really done much , apart from realise how much i need to revise; i don't know anything that i knew last year, and i feel bad cos i'm missing a colemans art evening, but i really don't want to go, as they are a little patronising, and no one else is going either. Maybe next week. Anyway, thats about it for now, at the moment I am fine, and trying to curl my hair without any success (well a very small amount), anyway, everyone have a good night.

23rd April

Quick update over what I did over my weekend.

On Saturday worked at Colemans, it was really funny, didn't really do any work, but had fun, we read interesting children's books, and we eneded up creating ways to make letters and numbers with our bodies, it sounds confusing, but it was more hysterical than anything else. In tuck shop it was really funny, Lucy said "can I help you" to one guy, who replied in an uncaring voice "if you want", it sounds funnier when you say it, opposed to when i try to type it. After work, we all all went to Tom's, apart form I got there ten mins early, so Tom's sister opened the door, and I had the surreal feeling that nobody was going to turn up apart from me. However, it was fun, and Andrena made fairy cakes; they were brill. We went to Macdonalds and then me and alex went back to Alex's which was fun, well, we just kind of talked etc.

Alex's brithday in two days, hope everyone is ready to spend a night in her garden! It will be fun, weather-wise its meant to be really warm although cloudy, but it isnt meant to rain, so fingers crossed, oh and everyone remeber to bring food and drink. lol. (Even if it does rain, there will be a gazebo, so don't let that put anyone off)

Anyway, I have to go and do English coursework and an RE essay, so everyone have a good Sunday, and see everyone at school tomorrow!

21st April

Well, I am determined to write almost every day, even if it just means i end up being very boring (it can't get much worse I hear you shout; it can). Today I have been taking part in a drama thing that was filmed with a random man, it is to make an educational video, and was 'interesting' although we got to go early, so that was a bonus, the downside was that we had to miss our entire break and lunch, so i didn't get to see anyone, but nm...

Working tomorrow at Colemans and apparently there has been some scandal this week... so we have to wait and see what happens and how much we are told about tomorrow, but in a couple of weeks we are all going to do stocktaking and then go out for a meal, so I am sure we will be able to tell any tension within the group! lol.

I have been really happy all day, nothing much has really happened, but nothing bad has happened, I woke up to find that I have two more easter eggs, as my aunties had given them to my granddad who my mother had been to see yesterday (if that makes sense), so in a way I am excited, however, I had really hoped that I wasn't going to get that much chocolate this easter, and the amount I have had has just doubled, nevertheless as I am finding the impotus to run every day at the moment (well isnce sunday) I can kind of eat more without minding it.

It is Friday and so I have no work to do tonight, although a final draft of english coursework and an essay to do over the weekend, so perhaps I should begin... I am sure it will be fine if I wait!

Anyway, I hope everyone has a good weekend, and that everyone has fun over the next few days...

easter holidays

I haven't posted anything for ages, and so thought I should update everyone in general. Easter was interesting. I went to the beach with Alex, tom and mark, it was really windy which was ashame cos it would have been much better otherwise, but even so, we had fun, got sand in all our sandwhiches (but less in mark's as it was prepackaged!), and we discovered hunstanton, which was also windy, but the boys played on the arcade games, managing to earn enough tickets to exchange them for two sherbert dummys, which they appeared to have fun with, so all in all it was good, filled with flick combs and fish and chips.

That was the thing that stood out mosti n the first week, then Alex went to France, where she had a wonderful time, I kind of went around met up with people, ooh, on the first Tuesday I cycled into Peterborough and back again in a day! I was really impressed and it was really sunny, so on the way there I had a wonderful time, however, I was so tired on the way back that I ended up cycling really slowly; it took me an hour and a half to cycle there and two hours to cycle back, as I got lost, in total I did about forty mile, which doesn't sound much, but I havent cycled for ages, but it was good.

Went dancing in Flares with Andrena and Alison, well, mainly Andrena as I had forgotten to warn Ali about the music, and we all foudn out when we got there that it wasn't quite her cup of tea, but it worked out well in the end, as she invited mike out, and me and andrena spent the evening dancing and trying to put off really ugly men from coming to talk to us, which was surprisingly difficult, but if you dance with your back to them they don't really have a choice, although at one point I did get several to do the hand jive...

Went and played badminton with the girls on tuesday (the one just gone), kind of a ritual thing we do every holiday, it was fun, although not quite as good for our health as we had hoped as we just went back to Alex's afterwards and ate loads of chocolate. lol.

I have been watching a lot of Ally McBeal recently, which is probably bad for me, but it is funny at times, and I am trying to watch all the episodes I have before I start doing revision so that I don't get distracted (it just means I'll get distracted about something else).

It's Alex's birthday next Tuesday, so we are all excited, something to do, lol, although apparently people are staying over in tents, so who knows what will happen on the Wednesday when they will have to get up and go to school, but if they are mad enough to try... lol.

Feeling good about Nick at the moment, it was a month yesterday since we broke up, and you'll be thrilled that I haven't been blogging or I would have included random rants about him. He is behaving slightly weirdly in a kind of not talking to me very much way, but I think that I am getting over him quite quickly. Although sadly only for the reason that I believed at the time he loved me, but in retrospect I'm not sure he did. That is just my interpretation, and might be completely wrong, however, it does make it a lot easier to deal with. lol, it also means I have a lot more time for revision after school! yay.

Slightly woried about my summer exams, and a lot about my English coursework, I have to re-work almost all the pieces and they are not brill, in fact if I get an A it will be dodgy, and I cannot afford to mess up any of my exams, but at the same time need 3 A's to get into university, ooh I should probably do the UCAS thing and tell them which uni I want to go to...

Well I'm going to go, so that I can got on with work, hope people had a fun easter

19th of March

I realise that I haven't blogged for a while... I have been busy. Quite a lot has happened, we had the sixth for revue, which was fun, I did the four yorkshire men with haggis, joyce and cunliffe, which was good fun, and an extract from our A-level play with Amy, it went surprisingly well; we adapted it to the audience and did a headmistress and pupil routine, which worked well.

I have started driving again, lol, my mum is taking me out every Sunday and I am having lessons which are going very well.

Possibly the biggest news I have is that me and Nick have split up, yes, before anyone asks it is proper, i.e. we don't want to get back together, it will not be like last time; he finds me boring and annoying, I find him uncaring and inhumane, so together I guess we don't make the best couple, lol, so thats it, but we (I mean me, but probably him too) have had such a depressing couple of weeks that I think it is a bit of a relief, we haven't done one happy thing together since pancake day when we all went to Beths. It also means that we have finished the chocolate competition but I think I might continue anyway until something happens, I tend to not eat unnessecary food when I have broken up with Nick, lol; I have to make an effort for the rest of the world now. Anyway, lol, atleast we wont have to worry about the long distance relationship from uni to uni now!

Really I am writing this becuase I have way too much homework and I am trying to distract myself, but I will force myself to carry on. Anyway, have fun everybody.

23rd of Feb

Hey, again it has been a while, but not very much has changed. lol. Am still plodding on at school, it hasn't been very exciting today, although we were continually teasing Mr B. about his age all drama lesson which was kind of entertaining. Our play is going amazingly well, lol, we are blocking it all, and it is very exciting.

I definitely have cancelled the craft fair now, i e-mailed the enthusiastic woman and she said she wasn't surprised that therer wasn't enough interest in it, she'd tried to do stuff before and there wasn't any interest out there. So atleast she wasn't cross. lol

Half term was good; have I amready written about that? I feel I have, but if not, it was brill, as was valentines day etc. Everybody else has seemed to have a nice time etc

Still no idea what to do for the summer yet, we'll have to get Andrena onto it, hint hint, lol, nah, I'm sure we will think of something.

At the moment I am having a small moral dilema about the play that I am doing as part of my Amateur dramatics group. The problem is that it is really rude, and I am the only girl in it, there is one woman of about sixty, and about five men of atleast forty five, balding and/or fat. The problem should not be with how they look, apart from the fact that I have to flirt with them and find them attractive on stage as part of my character. The script says I have to snog one of them (but I am refusing), and not only do all the men make lurid jokes on stage (as part of the script,) but they make them off the stage as well. I feel like some kind of sexual object and I can definitely see the appeal of being a Muslim women and wearing a hijab, so that men cannot make jokes. I find it really rude, its not as if these men are my age, they are atleast twenty seven years older. So I would really like to quit the play, but they have no one else to play my part (btw, I have to do worse things off stage with them, by the end of the play, I have slept with all of them minus one). So I will continue, but I think I am going to have a word with the director. Its all a bit dodgy, why they wanted to do that paly in the first place is beyond me.

Anyway, enough moral dilemas for now, I will try and write more often here... and keep you updated on what happens!

thursday 8th feb (I've got bored with making up titles

Nearly half term! Not much happened today, I wrote to my grandma and granddad (Andrena persuaded me to), I feel I should do it more often as they really love getting letters from me, so it seems like a nice thing to do.

Nick was away today in Bristol, he had a medical interview, which he said went okay, so I guess that means it was fine. I still haven't heard from Bristol uni yet, I'm really annoyed, I just want them to reply!

I feel really bad, I had this great idea of doing a craft exhibition in Oundle, but I only had one really enthusiastic person, so I thought I would leave it, but now that person has sent me a load of photos, which she has obviously spent time doing, I feel really bad just saying that there isn't enough interest.

Theatre studies is brill at the moment, we have the best group (no offense to anyone else, I am sure your groups are brill too) and we have the best play (again no offense), and it is really exciting, poor Beth has been cutting the whole play, although she thinks we might be cutting out the character reversal thing that we were going to do, which means everyone will have to be happy with the character they get, although that is not the biggest problem, as all the characters are great, and you can really play up to them, and it means we can do more on costume.

Thought the ball on Saturday was okay, the music was awful, me and Nick left forty five minutes early, he suggested it, but I followed readily. The food was much better though, and obviously as usual everyone looked great etc.

I am going life drawing tomorrow and am really excited, lol, I haven't done any art for ages, went into Colemans today where me, Lucy and Katie work (told you that I'd mention you somewhere!), and bought characoal, lol, and some cartridge paper! Its going to be fun.

Tom has begun to teach me A-level maths, I now know what a modulus is, and an argument (in the mathematical sense), which is more exciting than it should be.

I really want to do something humerous for the sixth form revue, like the lumberjack song last year, but am lacking the energy, but if anyone else has any good ideas and needs someone to join in I am here (as long as you don't need much talent, lol, or any musical talent!) other than that, I think I might make myself available bnack stage, there was a really helpful guy that sat at the front with microphones last year, lol, so I am hoping to fulfill his role!

I am generally happy and well, half term is on its way, and all the girls are getting together on Saturday! (although in a way that is bad, because now, the last time I can see Nick before he goes on holiday is the Fridau, but he is only away for three days) and then Valentines Day, lol, and a drama rehearsal (obviously the pinacle of the holiday!)

Oh, everyone who wants to know when we will be taking pictures for the year book; it will be on the Tuesday and Thursday lunchtimes in the common room, me and Nick Haste will be taking them, so make sure you have good hair, or you'll be remembered for having rubbish hair (lol, exciting creative writing, with a variety of adjectives!)

Don't think anything else happened today... oh apart from it was Haggis' birthday, so to celebrate him and Joycee blew up condoms... over their heads, which was humerous, although was also quite frightening as they made a really big noise when they popped. lol, i think that is everything that has happened of any interest. lol.

i know its been a while...

It has been ages since I have blogged, but I haven't really had anything to say. My exams have gone, well, English re-sit was fair (I guess, it might have been rubbish). I just got my l-nat score 18, i think it was out of 30, but the average is 16.9, so I guess that it is better than average! lol.

We have just got our theatre studies group sorted, we have the most brill group, and we are doing something that we like, unlike the Glass Menagerie, which I'm sure is great if you like that sort of thing, but if you don't then it seems as though it would be really boring.

Nick has done the sweetest thing, he was going to be away for valentines day, with his family in Wales, but he is getting the train back instead, so that he can be with me. Isn't that the sweetest thing, although I think he is using it as a plot to have the house to himself for a couple of days before his family get home!

I promised I would mention Joycee, lol, da dah, he seems to have an obsession with my scarf (along with everyone else) at the moment, the blue and green one with a hole through the middle.

All the girls are going to have a girly evening in a couple of weeks time (i say all, i mean five of us), alex wanted it this saturday, but me and beth declined as there was the ball to go to instead (apparently she forgot!)

Anyway, all is fun and good in the world, and I am off to Leeds tomorrow for an open day, although it means that I wont have seen Nick for three days (well, after school), but I'm sure it will be fun (Leeds I mean), I am going with my mother, which means that we can leave late, as we don't have to be there till one, and so I can have a lie in! Yay!

helloo

Hey, I haven't blogged for a while, I know, but I have been busy revising, well, kind of. Not really done much at all, thats really why I haven't blogged, but have various things to tell;

My pantomime is being performed at the end of the month tickets cost £4.50, and can be brought through me, there is a group of ppl coming (hopefully), it is performed in oundle, if you are interested say something

I am orgainising a craft fair for the easter holidays, if you are interested in a) being in it, or b) coming down to have a look, then again talk to me and I will give you the details, if you know anyone (preferably adult) who is crafty and is interested, please tell me also

I now really like Frank Turner, random guy that was introduced on the Zane Lowe show, I'm not really into music, but the song was really good, so I googled him, and listened to some other stuff and he's brill, lol, he's the lead singer of Million dead, if that means anything to anyone, but this stuff is really mellow, and cool, I like the song that you cant download from myspace best, "cassanova's..." something, anyway, check it out, lol.

Don't think I have any more messages atm, lol, but am doing fine etc, looking forward to the ball! and exams!

dooby doo

Feel much better today! lol, don't know why I went weird, anyway, I have had a fun day, trying to do my theatre studies, although failing quite badly, I have only done 1 piece, and I needed to do three! Tidied my room, which took quite a while, and found the christmas card that I had given to Nick in a random bag, I think that secretly he didn't want it! lol, but I told him that I am going to make sure he takesi t home with him tomorrow.

At the moment I am deciding whether to go to my panoitmime rehearsal, I think I probably should, but I do have to work, and I can't quite be bothered to move form my computer screen, I know that's really lazy, but if I don't do my drama now, I never will, and then I will fail my A-level and everything will all go wrong. lol.

I'll think about it

christmas and new year and on

I haven't blogged for ages... anyway, christmas was brill, I went up to Manchester to see all my family, and my family from Ireland came over too, and I haven't seen tham for many years. It was really good, and we just ate and laughed etc. I then went with friends to the Lake District, really od group we went with, but it was really good, adn we got to know each other much better etc. Got trapped in snow and ice occaisionally up there, it was quite icy, but didn't suffer any major collisions, and so we got home in one piece for new year. Went to Toms for new years, it was really nice to see everyone again, esecially the girls, as we hadn't seen each other for ages, and it was usually just the girls, as there seemed to be a weird segregation thing going on - fun - not. Anyway, I didn't stay the night at Toms but went home with Nick, and was really annoyed with him as it was our two year anniversairy and he spent all night with Watkins, but then I felt sorry for him, cos the group always go on at him for spending too much time with me at group things, and then I complain when he doesn't spend time with me. But, five hours after midnight he said new year to me, and that was that, we went home at about half four/five, and I didn't wake up properly till two-ish. My mother picked me up, but didn't let me drive home, and then I came home, ate tea, watched Chicago, and haven't done much else. Invited Nick to Oundle on Tuesday and that was about it... err, yeah...
Atm, I am feeling surprisingly stressed, I get stressed by anything and everything, and at the moment am feeling really irritated and unbalanced and am just generally unhappy, but with no reason at all, and no idea why I am, perhaps it is because it is late...? I'm going to bed, lol.

dooby doo...

lol, just thought I should let everybody know what i have been doing lately. lol. I got into cardiff on three A's no surprises, but it is slightly annoying, apparently Joey's (MD of colemans) nephew has just finished doing law there, and she says it he really enjoyed it. Yesterday Nick took me out to Ask for a meal, we have been trying to go for ages, but things just kept coming up, and so we eventually went last night, it was very nice, the food was good, and equally there were humerous groups on each side of us for me to laugh at!

Had to get up early today as we had a drama rehearsal for Loves Labours Lost, some of the main characters didn't turn up, so i got to read lots of people's parts, lol, which was fun, I hope if anyone becomes ill I can take over their part, lol, I sware I am the person who knows the most (obviously apart form those who actually have a part!). Went back to Nick's afterwards, and we had pizza for lunch (ooh) and then I left to go home and do homework, which I am trying to put off atm!

I am very happy just in general, and am very contented, am looking forward to the week, we have to social and chris' and late night opening Thursday night in Oundle (we have to hand out panto leaflets), it's all very exciting. Oooh, and Jules has an Oxford interview Mon tues and wed, so if you read this Jules, good luck!

Over and Out

hay ho

just wanted to tell everyone what a fab weekend I had, well mostly. I didn't get an interview at Oxford, yes, 85% of applicants that apply get an interview, and I was one of the 15%, how embarrasing, but on the good side, that was the only terrible thing that happened to me all weeekend, and now I can go to Leicester on the 7th of Decmber instead (a university more at my "real" level). Anyway... had fun on Saturday at Colemans, although Lucy wasn't there as she was in the Peak district, but we had Debbie and she's really nice, so the day went by quickly, we did all our jobs and chatted. At last the ladies know that I am back with Nick, I didn't know how to tell them, but I had to ask for Sunday off so that I could go to the theatre with him! So, after work, went home, found out about Oxford, and then went to Nick's (mum drove!), and realised I had left the tickets at my house, told Nick, he rang the theatre and it turned out that it started at seven anyway, not seven thirty, so his mum gave us a lift. We were just in time, we had gone to see the Jungle Book, and unfortunately, the mean age of the audience was seven. I was in a really bad mood due to Oxford, and so I wasn't really in the mood to laugh along with many small children, and the first half passed without revelation. Anyway, then in the opening of the second half Nick jumped two inches out of his chair when the "baddie" came on, it was so funny, it was so obvious where he was coming on from and at what time, even I didn't jump! I haven never laughed so much, and after that the rest of the performance was humerous. The songs were the best, they kept repeating a single line in each one, and the tunes were really mournful, with obvious rhymes, apart form the last song (talk about saving the best till last!), which was just fantastic (suddenly). Anyway, it finished, and it was really cold, so Nick's mum came nad picked us up. We went back to Nick's had take away pizza and watched family guy and American Dad! lol, We had no rehearsal in the mornign as Mr B. is also in the Peak District so we did not do much all afternoon and then went Christmas shopping after lunch. A perfect day.

Came home, cooked dinner for the family, we ate, mum bought jaffa cakes as a special treat (we don't have biscuits in the house), and Andrena has come up with a brill idea of a Christmas holiday! It's all good!

...

I'm not particularly happy atm. I've had a few nice days, yesterday went and did salsa again, which was fun, next wekk I move up to the beginner group (atm I am in some "I don't know anything about salsa group"), which is a lot more exciting than it sounds. Spent the night at Nick's, as I was going to be up to go to the RE trip early today. Woke at six, and left his house, unintentionally waking everybody in the house up on my way out. Walked to Tom's and from there went to school. We went to the RE trip. on the way there I read random book that a year twelve recommended to me, it was surprising and unnecessarily rude, but had nothing else to read lol. RE lecture was good, we had two speakers, one, Peter Vardy was really good and the other one was really mediocre, lol, but the last talk he did on the problem of evil (one of my favourite topics), was really good, and he ended it very well, lol, so that was all fun. On the coach on the way back texted Nick to ask what time he owld be going to panto, but apparently he doesn't want see me beofrehand, as he has to have dinner (my mum says that I am being to sensitive, as he does have to eat) but he didn't seem that bothered, and so we might see each other today or not, the fact that he is sitting in a hall somewhere half a mile form where I live is obviously beside the point totally. Anyway, a mixture of Tom and stupid book I am reading has made me really paranoid, and am slowly cracking up, am going to turn up to rehearsal that I don't have to attend, and ask whether we can talk, can't do it tomorrow as we are going to the theatre to see the jungle book (my 18th birthday present), I'm so cross with everything atm, I wish I didn't hae to play games with peoplel, and that they could just say how they felt. I think this is also partly to do with the fact that I haven't eaten for a while and am over-tired. Frustratingly, still love him though, ironic!

on fire, (joke relating to being burnt) lol

Haven't been online for ages, well, not long enough to blog, anyway.
On Friday I burnt myself with the iron! I now have a massive scar scab thing about four inches up from my wrist, and looks like I have started mutilating myself - I have not! Went to Lucy's party on Friday night, really good. Lol, me and Nick were talking about how we prob spend too much time together, and so for the first half of the night I was determined to stay out of his way, lol, and so I had fun and danced etc, and then saw him for the last hour and a half or so, lol, it worked very well, and was a really good party - she has loads of talented musicians who are her friends (Nick got massive blisters on his fingers!). Went to work on Saturday, duidn't do mcuh, apart from all our thousands of jobs that we now have to do since our appraisals, i weighed out a few sweets, and did bits of everything, lol. In the evening went to Nicks, to find him dipping his fingers in vinegar (apparently it makes them stronger), watched half of the house of flying daggers, then had pizza, then watched the other half, lol, then went to bed, its a really long film, lol.
Anyway, Sunday, woke up early, dragged ourselves out of bed to get to school for 9:30 so that we could go to a loves labours rehearsal in the DW, it was actually really fun, I love people that do drama, they're so funny. Went back to Nick's afterwards, and then got the ten past three home. Didn't do mcuh in the evening apart from watch the pilot episodes of Ally McBeal, and do a bit of homework, oh and watched Notting Hill, its so funny, Hugh Grant is wonderful! lol
Monday, got up, late as I was tired from having watched Notting Hill, then once I had got ready mum offered to give us a lift as Jenny has buggered her knee up. So we (jenny) was lectured in the car all the way to school, but it meant that we diodn't have to stand in the freezing cold waiting for the bus! yay!. Got to school, didn't do much, it was really terrible though, p.2. I got off, so went ot the canteen, and Nick was there, I didn't see him (as I am blind), and he didnt say! "hi" as he thought that I was ignoring him, why would I ignore him? anyway, after that terribleness, had a really nice rest of the day, and went for coffee and cake, which was very nice, although Nick did steal the last bit of my iced bun! lol, and I declared I would never marry him, as he would just steal my food all the time! lol. Anyway, came home via the bus, with Katie M, her brother and Sando, so it was just really funny. Got home, ate tea, watched the Simpsons, and then went online. I am just about to go to panto rehearsals in a few mins, and so am debating whether to get changed or go in my school uniform, lol. Its all fun.

dum de dum

wow, my titles are getting worse and worse. Anyway, to day I have had fun, although have been quite tired as I stupidly stayed up to watch Lord Of the Rings last night, even though I have already seen it. So today, was tired, but we still got to the bus on plenty of time, got to school (late), and had frees first thing, did my English homework, but couldn't print it off as all the school printers had gone weird, and none of them would work. Had Ebglish, uneventful, and then break, in theatre studies, we did a speed run of our paly and then talked for the rest of the lesson, but I really need to know my lines better, its appalling, anyway. At lunch Nick had further maths, so I went into town with Ali and Polly, but got back to school right at the end of lunch, and didn't see him, he didn't turn up to registration and it turned out that further maths had been cancelled as Mr Pinshon (?) hadn't arrived. But, nm, so i was a little annoyed that I hadn't seen him all day, but he was at the foyer at then end of the day, so it was okay, i would normally have seen him after school but i had a theatre studies rehearsal, and so couldnt. We had our theatre rehearsal, and Mr B. said it was good, which was amazing (although we thought it was quite good too), to the last group he said they were a shambles!

We went to deep pan afterwards, lol, in true theatre studies style, and I am now stuffed, got the 6:10 back with Polly, which was a riot, lol, oh and I haven't said a word about our berets, we found these really cool hats (berets) in the drama workshop for our play, and they are really cool, so atm we are going around wearing them, they are grey and so match the school uniform, which makes it funnier. Anyway, came home, and am now writing this, and about to go out to my pantomime rehearsal.

I have realised that the only bad thing about blogging at this time, is that you don't get to hear what happens in my evening, but nothing exciting happens, so its probably just as well! lol

on and on

Haven't blogged for a while, haven't really been on. Not done much, a quick run down on my weekend; Friday, went to panto rehearsal after school, was fu, but I sang appallingly, but it was still fun and am making good friends with Dawn, the girl that plays Robinson Crusoe. Also, John told me about these salsa classes he goes to, they sound really good and i might join.

Saturday I spent at Colemans, we had our appraisals, we are all fine, but we don't do enough jobs, lol, the same as last year, but my wages went up, minimally, lol, so its all fun. We had a really busy day the only things I had time to do were stock sheets and customers, we made 2,200, which is pretty decent at this time of year, although we needed to make 3,000 to beat the week we had last year, nm. Sat eveing went home and changed and then headed to Nicks, we were going to his dads birthday thing at the greyhound track. I had spent the day umming and erring whether to get him anything, then decided on just a card (apparently a pot plant wasn't the 'thing') and then I didn't even give him a card as it seemed out of place. Anyway, walked to the dog's, its 'past' the regional, we were told, like, a mile past, lol. Anyway, and then we had dinner, and betted and had general enjoyment, Lorna (dads 'new' wife (shes not really new anymore) ) and Liam, Lorna's son were also there, and we all had fun (michael, Nick's bro was also there). Stayed there until, err, I'm actually not sure of the time, but it was quite late, went back to Nick's stayed the night. However, had to wake up really early (well kind of) as he was going to his rehearsal at 9:30, so got up after he left, spoke to his mother, nearly tidied his room, lol, and then his mother told me she was going at eleven, meaning, I thought that she meant, could I leave before then. I said that it didn't matter anyway as I was leaving at half ten, but she said that that was probably easier as she wouldn't have to give me a key and show me how to work the alarm etc, but I thought that that was really sweet, that, I don't know, she would let me stay in the house on my own, etc.

Went home Saturday morning, went ot the coffee tavern as I was in the middle of reading Northanger Abbey, but it was really loud in there, as there were loads of school kids, so in the end I went to the co-op to buy some food for tonight. I had bought potatoes form Waitrose in the morning, but htay hadn't had any decent beef, so I waited, but they didn't have any beef fillets at all, so now I'm not sure what we are doing for tea. Walked home with the rest of the shopping, got in, asked mum how Mark was (random guy that mum went out with last night), apparently wasn't brill, and had lunch, now am trying to put off my philosophy homework, again, lol. Its all fun.

hey hey

I have had a good day to day, well, lol, most of it. Got mockedi n front of my English class as I was meant ot be doing this presentation on legalese, and Ms had asked me to get a bit of hansard to look at, cos tht was legalese, got a bit, read it out in my presentation, and then shes tells me its not legalese, it sounds stupid, but it was really embarrasing.

Felt really sorry for Allie today, her drama is not going well, and it brought it back to me that the performace is less than a week away, so we really worked during the lesson today and went through a large run through in the lesson, and although there were a few minor disputes, it was really good, and we went through the whole play, hopefully our good work will continue tomorrow...?

Had debate club today, it was really good, we argues about that case with the Manchester lady who wants parents to have the right to know if their children are having an abortion under the age of sixteen (i think of course they should have the right), there were quite a few people there and humerous points were mentioned thorughout, a real 'gem' of a debate! lol

After school went shopping for presents for Lucy, Jess and Nick's dad, lol, bought them, went back to Nick's, lol, and then went to Deep Pan for Lucy and Jess' meal, it was really nice, until about half-way through, when I was talking to Haggis, who said he might quit the play, I said it was a bit late for that wasnt it to which he replied "shut the fuck up, you're as bad as my fucking mother" he wasn't joking, he was being completely serious, and I have a mad hatred for people that directly sware at me (I don't mind if they sware around me), I don't sware at them and I expect them to do the same, it's the rudest thing that I can think of, and if I ever sware at someone then you will know that its actually someone else trying to impersonate me, or I am scarily cross, you will want to stay out of my way etc. Anyway, so after Haggis swore, I got really cross, ate incredibly fast (i tend to do that when I am angry) and then just sat talking to Nick and then left early, but it was really good before then, a load of people were there, and it was nice to talk to some people that I never really talk to at school. Went back to Nick's and his mum gave me a lift back becuase she is wonderful and nice, lol. Oh and NIck texted his dad to see what they were doing for his birthday and words to the effect of would he like me to join them, he said "yes of course, am glad you're back together xxx", it was just so sweet, lol, yes, i realise I am over sentimental, but it makes me happy, lol. Things between me and Nick are amazingly wonderful, lol, the world, in general, is a fine place to be in.

And remeber everybody, next weeks assembly topic is "road safety!"

tum te tum

Haven't done much today, quite tired, as I went to bed at half past ten last night! (late I know), as I decided to watch Ally McBeal, it may be 'trash', but thats why I love it. Seemed to be let out of all my lessons early today for various reasons. Break time wasn't so brill, I thought that me and Nick isolated ourselves quite a lot, a huge amount in fact, but there isn't much i can do now. Still dont have any information from Leeds, I am not sure whether they have given me a place or not, its nearly been a week, even if they put something as second class surely they would have got it by now? I'm getting over Manchester, lol, I talked to Mr Davies and he said it was their loss (lol! more like their genius), and moping isnt going to change anything anyway. Haven't seemed to do much, just kind of wandered through the day. I'm worried though, I know it sounds stupid, but Nicks being really nice, like, really nice, I'm scared part of me thinks that he's being nice to me because he's trying to hide his feelings that he actually doesn't think its working out, but thinks he'll leave it for a few weeks, as it seems a bit mean getting rid of me as he has only just asked me out. I know that seems silly, but you know when something is going perfectly and so you start to think that there must be a problem coming up... well thats what it seems like, I can't believe that it is like this and normal... anyway.

Stopped for a bit of a read at the Coffee Tavern on the way back, read James Herriot (an old favourite) and came home, to an empty house (thank god) Jenn's not back yet and mum has gone to her old school to collect a jewellery bench, she took John' car so that she could drive it bakc and so she has promised she is going to go out with him for dinner tonight! Not that that will give him hope or anything. Anyway, I am ready for a peaceful afternoon and evening dong nothing, all I have to do is print a sheet of paper out, which I could do period 1 tomorrow, and that is it, ha ha.

Btw, if anyone know's Mr Forsyths e-mail address home preferably, but if not school, then can you give it to me? but if poss email it, as im not sure that he'd be thrilled that him address has been posted on the internet.
