Hey there.

So on Sunday, I was invited around to Sands’ for lunch with her family. We had pizza and it was really nice.
Me and RD were meant to be going to the XFactor auditions on Monday, but we decided not to go as we couldnt really be bothered to. I don’t think I did much else that day.
Tuesday, the parents took me and the brother shopping. I got nothing, but he got a couple of bits.
On Wednesday, I took the brother shopping again and bought him lunch. I ended up getting a couple of dresses for my birthday, but I’ll probably only keep one. It was nice to spend some time with him. We don’t really get to be like that around my parents. Wednesday highroad was my last Brownies meeting and also the summer BBQ. They got me a photo frame with a picture of the pack in it which was lovely. At guides it was me and TDs ‘official’ last night. But we’ll probably both still got for a little bit as I don’t start uni until the end of September. Two BBQs in one night. Good night.

Hey there.
This Sunday was spent coming home from the caravan trip with the Guides. It was a really fun weekend, so many funny pictures were taken! Only downside was that I wasn’t feeling too great, horribly bunged up and sore throat, lasted most of last week too and only cleared up a bit by the end of this week.
On Monday I went shoppin

Hey there!
As Sands got home on Saturday, I went to see her on Sunday. We had a laugh and I got to see all her holiday snaps. So jealous of her holiday! Also looked at finding a prom dress for her.
So on Monday me and Àands headed to Oxford Street to find her dress. We couldn’t find one and she was losing hope and then we went into House Of Fraser and we found this really gorgeous dressvwhich she pretty much fell in love with as soon as she put it on. We also witnessed a guy trying to steal a pair of sunglasses which was pretty scary, especially when he ran into the road and nearly got hit by a bus.
On Tuesday, I went shopping with The Mother and Brother. I didn’t get anything. I didn’t like anything I saw.
Wednesday was Mikado’s birthday so I arranged to meet with him after my singing lesson so that I could give him his birthday present and we went to this new Mexican place which was actually really nice. Afterwards, we walked home and I met up with DH and we went and did a bit of shopping for summer.

This week was good. A lot to talk about this week.
So Sunday was the last day which I had to use to revise; I didn’t. I couldn’t concentrate so decided to focus on psychology and not do biology.
My last two exams were on Monday. Psychology was in the morning, it was okay. Again there were some stupid questions but I think it was okay. One of the biggest questions I loved as it was one of the debates that I had revised with Sharkee the night before so knew pretty much inside out. Biology was in them afternoon and I was so tired in it. I actually dozed off for a bit. Again, it was an okay exam. A lot better than expected, but I know I did make a lost of silly mistakes in it. When it got to the last 5 minutes of the exam, I just sat there smiling, knowing that I didn’t have to do anymore. When the exam was over I literally skipped out the gate with a friend. I was so excited to be finished. So I got home, got changed and then headed out to meet Sharkee. We did some shopping and met up with HJ who was looking for a prom suit, me and Sharkee actually spotted the one he chose in the end which is pretty cool B) so later on we decided to get some food and picked Las Iguanas. It was happy hour and we were offered cocktails so we thought we should just go for it and ordered two each. Quite proud that they didn’t ID us as although Sharkee is 18, neither of us really look our age! The food was good and so were the drinks and we had a really nice time.
So on Tuesday I had a singing lesson in the afternoon and I also had to go in and get my text book deposit back. In the morning, the prom decorations arrived and then I popped out to see Mikado as he was near me.
On Wednesday me and the family went out for lunch and then a walk. It was a nice afternoon.

Hey everyone.
So on Sunday I dyed my hair again. I am now ginger. This was not planned.
Basically, I was dying mums hair and as she has very short hair, she had loads left over. So I ended up with the rest in my hair and where I had dyed it the week before, not all of it actually dyed and so its pretty patchy and parts are really bright. I also managed to break my glasses which was clever of me.
I’m still sticking to the jogging programme so I woke up on Monday and started week 2. So far so good! So as I broke my glasses on Sunday and mum was going to get her eyes tested, I went along and got them fixed. We went and got lunch together and it was nice to spend some time with her.
I got to see my lovely DH on Tuesday, we went up town and had lunch and went shopping. I got a new dress which mum says makes me look far too pale and like a china doll. I like it.
So on Wednesday I went for another jog, still going well with the programme!

Hey 🙂
I’m gonna dive straight into this as I am shattered.
Sunday- went out for the brothers birthday.
Monday- not much happened really, I went into town with Ads after school to get a few bits and pieces for Sands birthday but that’s all really.
Tuesday- I went back into town after school on Tuesday to get the final few bits and take some photos for Sand’s birthday present. Was pretty hilarious taking all these stupid pictures with DN and Ads and then realising that everyone could see us out the library windows.
Wednesday- Sand’s 18th birthday. Mikado went and got this amazing chocolate cake that was so, so good. Like not too rich and nice and moist and just argh. It was a good cake. I bought her popping candy chocolate spread as a kind of in-joke we have going. It doesn’t really taste as good as it sounds.

Howdy.
So this week was interesting I guess.
Monday I was meant to be going to a lecture about the brain and neurodegenerative diseases, but after waiting for ages, the woman didn’t show up. So I decided to walk into town to get something for The Brothers birthday. So I get into town and Mikado saw me and shouted so I went over and we went to the library. None of the books on my list to read were in the library which is pretty silly really. Whilst I was looking at a book, FallenLegacy came over and surprised me and introduced me to one of his friends. They were going to get some food and I decided that I’d just go to the bookshop to get the brothers birthday present and return to the library later. They dropped me off and I soon found that there weren’t really any books that were suitable for my brother. I went home.
On Tuesday I was debating whether or not to go back into town with FallenLegacy to look at the books again, or get the train with Chlorine to look in the bigger shopping centre. I went with Chlorine. DN was also going and that was what made us add the shopping centre to the list to choose from. So we looked around the book store, and again, nothing that he would be interested in. Then DN decided he needed shampoo and conditioner.

Hello lovely people.
I started jogging again this week.
Me and Sands decided that we needed to start exercising again after our break, and I was up for it. So Monday after school we went for our first jog. We decided to go back to the beginning of the NHS Couch to 5k program, and I’m glad we did. Sands popped her knee on Sunday, and after the first run part of the podcast she needed to stop. We walked around for a bit before deciding to try again, but shortly after we decided to call it quits and head back. I said goodbye and headed home once we got near hers but I decided that I’d do the session myself. I bumped into The Brother as I restarted the run and as I’d find it awkward running when he was watching, I cut down the alley and sprinted the first run. Big mistake. When I slowed to do the walk section I found myself to be quite wheezy. I ignored it and carried on, running around some roads. Once I was about half way through the session and I got to a run section, I was forced to stop. I couldn’t breathe, and walking was getting harder and harder. Although I had pushed through the pain originally, it had stopped hurting and had gone numb. I knew it was time for me to stop and began the short walk home. Haha. Short. It took me 10 minutes. I clung on to the walls and fences and when I finally got home, crawled up the stairs, sat on my bed and woke up to my mum asking if I was okay. Not sure if I passed out or not, but I don’t think I did. I shouldn’t have been like that. I found the first session easy last time, enjoyable even. I couldn’t even finish it on Monday.
I stayed in bed all evening, only moving to put my onesie on. Mum would normally tell me to stop being silly, however she could see I was shattered so bought my dinner up to me.

Hello there 🙂

So this weeks been abnormal. It was mocks week.
So, Monday was Biology unit 4 day. It was an okay paper I guess. If I had revised properly it would have been good.
I was home by 11 so I ate, sat doing nothing for a bit and then revised for psychology.
Tuesday was psychology day. Again, the paper would have been good had I revised to the best of my ability. There was one question that I wrote a few lines for and then realised that I had no idea what the answer was. Apart from that I guess it was okay. It was probably the least bad exam out of all of them. I got home at around 11 again so again I ate, tidied my room (well… I did some of it) and then started revising around 3 ish.
My geography exam on Wednesday wasn’t until 2 so I spent the morning going over bits and pieces, then I got really bored at home so I went into school around 11 and sat working by the heater for a bit. Shortly after a couple of other geographers came in, and although I just wanted to spam with them, we ended up discussing stupid things that weren’t necessary and by the end I just sat on my own again. We drove Chlorine to insanity at one point where we were trying to explain paleomagnetism and someone was explaining sea floor spreading and had got confused with the two and we were all talking at once and she got up, screamed and ran into private study to escape. Sorry bbz.
The exam was 2hrs30 which was tiring, especially as it didn’t finish til 4:30 and I was hungry throughout it. Like the other exams, if I had revised it would have been a great exam. The final 40 mark question started off okay, but by the middle I was just like “Woah what do I write now?” With more practice and better revision, I’m sure I’ll do fine.

Hey everyone. How are you?

Last Sunday, I got some work done and then my dad bought in pizza around 3. I really like this pizza they do in dominoes that has a bbq base and chicken and bacon I think on it. He went to pizza hut instead but got a similar one so I was happy 🙂 me and the brother managed to somehow eat a large pizza between us. Not that I’m complaining. It was good pizza.
