college starts continued...

so its been nearly a week since i did the other bit, and yes i know i said i would do it on whatever day it was, but i was busy.. so im carrying on with it now..

sunday was just another chill out day for us :) none of us did much, although J did some uni work and i did some revision. After dinner we all sat at the table and played cluedo. Was a good game, although there was lots or debates over the rules even though we have had the game and been playing it for many years now. Eventually dad won although the rest of us were not far behind.

The first week of college was like any other before it.. the only difference with the lessons was that it was all revision for the exams in the following week. It started snowing on tuesday, and so (because the snow was quite bad) i got wednesday off school.. it was a good day to have off seeing as i only had 2 lessons. Thursday was my key skills exam. Because of the snow i was 10 minutes late, but thankfully they had not started, anticipating that somje people might be delayed due to the weather. The exam lasted an hour and a half, but both L and myself finished in about 40 minutes.. it was one of the easiest exams i had ever done..

Went to M's house on friday, after school. We did the same as we usually do when we are together, and as usual i had a great time :)

On Saturday we had to take J back to epsom. By the time we had left and got to his house, it was 4.00pm. We stayed to help him unpack all his bags and clean up a bit. His room was incredibly dusty.. While we were sorting things out, Li came in and asked if we wanted to join her and J for dinner. We said no because we wanted to get home because it would be a long journey back.. We eventually got back home at around 10.00pm and had food that was just lying around (either left overs or ready meals). M came over on sunday and again we did our usual sunday activities :) it was a nice, slow, relaxing day, just what i needed after a week of continuous revision and before a week of hard revision and exams.

Dad took me to college on monday, and the first thing on my agenda was the maths test i had been dreading.. i went into the hall, got my stuff ready and then went and sat down.. The paper was awful.. i managed to get all the way through the paper and had time to go over the questions i had missed or only half done. By the end i had done everything i could. Gma and Gdad were picking me up and taking me home seeing as i didnt have anything else on, and when i met gdad outsided the hall he said that every person who came out the hall had said that they hated the exam and thought it was really hard. That made me feel a bit better seeing as i wasnt alone in thinking that. The rest of the day was spent relaxing and doing more revision. Tuesday was a pointless day. We had to make profiling appointments with each of our teachers that lasted for 15 minutes. I made 3 of my appointments for wednesday, as i had an economics exam wednesday afternoon, but after making those 3, i was told that i could only see D on tuesday or thursday, which meant that i had to go in on thursday for 15 minutes!! I was not particularly pleased with the fact of that. When i got home i just did more revision and watched tv.. Wednesday was better.. I had to be in at 9.00am to see K for profiling and then just about straight after i had to see Mrs F and Mr H. The profiling appointments went by quite quickly and so i was then stuck for a couple of hours on my own with nothing to do before the exam. I ended up sitting at a computer in the study centre with my headphones plugged in watching the lion king 2: simba's pride. That took up most of the time and so when it finished i went and stood by a radiator outside the gym so that i could go and sit as soon as the doors opened.. The economics exam was actually ok.. I managed to answer every question and even had time to spare at the end. I left the gym feeling confident that i had done well(ish) and that confidence had me feeling good for the rest of the day..

After the economics exam i didnt have to go back into college for anything until monday because my law exam was on the following wednesday. I soent the time at home doing large amounts of law revision and just generally chilling out. Friday evening M came over. M is just so ''wonderful and amazing'' and i really dont know what i would do without him :).

Saturday was just another lazy day for me and the parents, we just did odd jobs around the house and did some shopping. I saw M again on sunday, went round to his house. We were going to go to priory park to watch a kartinng event but in the end we didnt go, but stayed in and watched a dvd.

The start of the following week was the same as any other. college in the morning on monday and then all day tuesday. Unfortunately, monday evening, the heating broke.. which meant that i was spending wednesday with gma and gdad because i didnt really want to spend the day in a rather chilly house. I was only going into college on wednesday for my law exam in the afternoon, so all morning i was revising as much as i could.

I came out of the exam feeling like i could have done a lot better. My timing had been really bad and so i didnt manage to finish the paper.. I wrote a lot for all the questions i did do, so hopefully i will get enough marks to make up for some of the marks i missed on the last couple of questions...

College starts..

Im just going to get straight into it this time, cant think of anything to say to introduce it so here goes ;)


Saturday was a good day :) i got up late seeing as i had had another late night.. When i got up, mum told me that we were going to do an inventory of everything that we have in our freezers.. It took most of the morning to do all three freezers, but it wasnt too boring. When we were all back at home (dad had gone out somewhere) J went and watched tv while doing some work, and mum, dad and i played a game of monopoly :) because monopoly took so long and we needed to eat earlier than normal, mum got J to make dinner. We just had a normal carbonara that wasnt too hard to make and didnt take too long. It was a nic meal, and we ate while we carried on with monopoly. Eventually mum won monopoly after defeating first dad and then me.. it was not a proud moment for either of us, we got slaughtered.. Mum had made dad book tickets for us to go and see ''Avatar'' at the imax on saturday night, and so at about 8.30 we left home for the 10.30 showing. We were at the imax by 9.30 and so were then queing for over an hour before we could go in.. The film was amazing :D well worth the long wait. The only problem about the film, was that the glasses gave me a headache, and it lasted ages. We didnt leave the imax untill 1.30AM!! When we got home, i headed straight for bed and fell asleep almost instantly.

As you can tell by reading this, i havent actually got to the bit with college yet... this is because i am really slow and doing other things as well. But for now, my dinner is ready and i have to go so i will post this and then continue it again eeither later or tomorrow :) chow for now

New Year

For me this is good.. this is the first time i have done 2 posts within a week.. but then i do have my own personal alarm that goes off whenever i should make a new post..
M came round on new years eve, we weren't actually much company for each other as he was doing homework and i was helping round the house in preparation for J and her family to come. but he was there, and thats what counted.. It was quite a long day for me, doing various jobs to make the house presentable for our guests.. I only had to finish tidying my room, dust the entire downstairs, clean out oscar and louie, hoover the playroom and dining room, wash the floor in the playroom and lay the table.. I also tried to help M with his homework by mentioning films that he could use.
When M left and i returned home, i went and got changed and the ust chilled out for an hour before J arrived. When they came they brought all their stuff inside, took it up into the various room in which they would be sleeping and then we all started talking. It was fun lively talk and we all caught up with each other on lots of subjects. About an hour after them arriving, we sat down for dinner. I, being fussy, decided that i didnt want what the others were having for their starter and so mother got me a box of melon to chew on instead :P When we had all finished eating, mum, E and JL left to do some tidying in the kitchen, leaving me, J, P, and dad talking. Me and J started planning a gap year that we would take after our A levels so that we could go travelling around the world. We were also planning what countries we would go to and where we could stay ( with friends or family in that area). P and dad said that we could go as long as we got jobs and paid for some of it ourselves, which neither of us minded. E and mum however were not so keen, especially my mum..
When we all moved back to the lounge, we started talking again and then put on singstar abba, which J had brought with her :) it was great fun, we all joined in and all sang different songs. Me and J rocked, we got the highest score out of everyone on the duet mode :P We did a couple of battles as well where it was boys v girls. Girls won hands down and then got accused of cheating when P and dad were the ones trying to steal our mic..
We stopped playing the game at 11.50 so that we could bring in the new year. Dad maade us all drinks, some alcoholic, others not. We joined in with the countdown on the tv and then all of us raised our glasses and shouted 'HAPPY NEW YEAR' at exactly 12.00. We then all gave each other a hug (the men shook hands) and kissed each other :) I managed to find some crackers and all of those were pulled as well :)
At about 12.30 we went back to singstar because the boys wanted a re-match, the girls still beat them.. E decided to go to bed at 2, and the other adults not long after. JL started playing on his playstation and me and J went and watched 'Monsters v Aliens' in the playroom. I fell asleep half way through and was then very surprised when J told me the film was finished. Me and J went to bed about 3.20 and then stayed up chating about all things random (including boys). My last New Year text came through at 4.00, just before i went to sleep.
In the morning i was woken up by J's phone vibrating. When we went downstairs, everyone else was already up and breakfast was just going out onto the table. We all, sat round the table eating cereal, fruit and croissants. After breakfast people did whatever they wanted and about an hour later J, P and E left. Me and mum then played on the wii, i thrashed her at tennis and boxing, but she beat me at bowling.. JL and dad were watching Dr Who when we joined them. Mum then went to make lunch and we ate around 2 ish, leaving me 30 minutes before i was being picked up by M and JB to go out with them.
When i got picked up, i went back to M's house and M, JB and i sat talking for an hour, before we were due to go out to M's granddads birthday at his aunts house. While we were at M's aunts house, we sat around talking (and drinking tea for some people). His family were all very nice, and included me in their conversations even though most of them had only met me once. When toby (the dog) was let out, he came straight over to me and tried to jump on me before he could be restrained. This happened several times before he calmed down a little bit. Food was served at 7ish and it was a buffet type thing. everyone ate/drank what they wanted and then the puddings came out and were put away wen everyone had, had what they wanted. M was not feeling very well, and got gradually worse throughout the evening and asked if it was ok if we could leave at 9.20. JB dropped me off at home and i told M to go home to bed and just relax. Whether he did or not i dont know.. When i got in my parents and JL were watching Dr Who part 2 so i sat and watched the end of it with them. I was rather sad when the Dr died, and i dislike the new Dr quite a lot. He is not the same!!! i want DT back!!!!! After Dr Who we watched TP's 'The Hogfather' which is quite an awesome film :) When mum decided to watch 'Hannibal Lector', i decided it was time for bed.

That is me once again updated.. M you should be proud of me (and yes i know you reminded me that i needed to do it again but still..)
Post again soon no doubt

a month in writing... continued

After lunch, we all went back to the lounge. US and i started playing on my new ds game. everyone else was just sat around talking. Eventually mum decided to get puddings out and i made some chocolate sauce for the profiteroles. Not many people had puddings as the dinner was quite large.. About 11 o clock everyone went home.
On boxing day, M came over and we went to my grandparents for lunch and then dinner later on. After lunch we watched the new terminator film, which i thought was hopeless and had no story line to it. As is usual on boxing day, we played lots of rounds of cards. I tried to teach M how to play pontoon and brag, but he proved incapable of learning.. he was more interested in watching pirates of the carribean: at worlds end. Me, mum, dad and JL won quite a lot of money between us, but i think grandma won the most.
Sunday was a lazy day for us, we stayed at home chilling out and just relaxing after the two busy days we had just had.
Yesterday M had invited me round so after going out for lunch at the wing way and going to coventry, i went to his house. L had A round as well and so the four of us played guitar hero: world tour. After a while JB called us through to have dinner, chicken pasta bake with carrots, sweetcorn and broccoli. It was a nice meal and really chilled out and layed back :) After dinner, M, L, A and I went back to the playstation, but this time we were playing buzz. It was great fun. we played four different buzz games. I only really did well at the last game we played which was about films (my forte). Although i didnt have the most point at the end, i got the genius cup for getting the most correct answers, and i would have beaten the others if they hadnt kept stealing my points.. It was another good day with M :)
Today has just been another chill out day, i spent most of the day reading a book, and when i finished it i started the next one in the series :) at about 4 o clock dad said that we were going to pick up mum and so we went and then on the way back we stopped off at fosse park ( i didnt buy anything). While we were out i started talking to M on msn. He told me that i had to make a new post on here seeing as how i haven posted for over a month.. Up until he went offline at about 9.45 he has been telling me to finish my post.. (so you had better be happy now) but then, just before i finish it, he goes offline.. typical ;)

once again i am now up to date with things.. and next time i will post way before a month is up :D

a month in writing..

Once again i have neglected my blog.. M has been nagging me to do it for a while now but i just havent got round to do it.. and no it's not just an excuse..
I really shouldn't leave this much of a gap between posts.. i start to forget what ive done which isn't particularly good.. and so because of this little flaw, im going to be missing bits out..
School went on as usual through the 2nd half of November, we did mocks in all our subjects, i didnt do particularly well on them.. law and economics were the best, but then i knew i was going to fail maths and german is just wierd..
It was LM's birthday at the end of November and she invited a load of people to pizza hut for a meal, me included :) We all had the happy hour menu.. a started (potato wedges), an individual pizza (chicken thing) and a dessert :) me and LG decided to be different and had a dessert off the main menu, it was a giant cooked cookie with ice cream - it was very yummy :P When everyone had finished eating we started sucking the helium from the balloons that were on the table.. and all the left over balloons were takken home or let loose outside..
On the last wednesday before we broke up for the christmas holiday i had a warwickshire colleges, 5-a-side, girls football tournament. We all had to go if we could as we were taking 2 teams. We were playing at warwick college in moreton morrell which i think specialises in animal courses as there were several stables on site and other animal bits.. We were all set up to play football when we realised that the tournament was indoor and most people didnt have suitable trainers.. Thinking that it could be indoors i had taken trainers, astro turf boots and football boots with me (as well as my converse for while i was at school) and so was able to lend out my astro turf boots which helped. After all the matches with only the final to go, KEGS A team had won every match, and KEGS B team had won, lost and had a draw, which put one team in the final and one out. At full time in the final the score was 2-2 so we had to go to extra time, 4 minutes later each team had scored once, but the ref had disallowed the KEGS goal meaning we lost the match 4-3 on extra time.. In the bus on the way back to school everyone was saying how the ref was blind and that we should have won, but it was not to be..
Thursday was our last proper day of college seeing as we were finishing early on the friday. In german, we were watching films. I had taken a box of celebrations for me, S, T, J and D to share. DH had also provided us with some random germn snacks. Me S and D spent most of the lesson messing around on our phones on fb while trying to decipher what was going on in the film (it was all in german with no subtitles..). In the break between the double period, we asked DH to take some photos of us so we all lined up and DH took 3 photos off different peoples phones. Each photo was exactly the same but different because different people were wearing D and T's santa hats :P.
Friday was a normal day, the only difference was that i had to go in in the morning instead of the afternoon. Friday evening i went to M's house. As usual i had a great time with him. He always makes me smile no matter how im feeling, and i cant think of much that i would rather do than spend time with him :) (I know you are going to read it, so thank you :D).
It was my granddads birthday on the monday, and so we were invited round for lunch on the Sunday. M was also invited, so we spent the day with my family, only stepping out to take a stroll down the road. M declared himself my 'knight in not-so-shining armour because i kept slipping on the ice on the path. When we got back home, M and i kept to ourselves as usual in the playroon while the others did whatever they chose to do..
Id arranged for J to come up on Monday seeing as P was going to leeds for work for the day. And as promised she arrived just after 8 (in the morning). Mother took JL, J and I into Lutterworth so that we could catch a bus that would take us to Leicester. We arrived in Leicester 2 hours after being dropped off in Lutterworth!!! We then spent the day walking round highcross and the city centre, buying last minute christmas presents and other random things. It was dark by the time we got back to Hinckley but we still had to go to the chemists, so the 3 of us walked from the far side of hinckley to the centre of burbage to find out that the chemist didnt have the tablets i needed. When we got home, mother was already here and had started cooking dinner. 30 minutes later and P came to pick up J although he stayed for coffee and a slice of cake that dad had bought while he was supposedly working..
Tuesday and Wednesday were spent just lounging about at home and wrapping christmas presents. On thursday (christmas eve) M came over seeing as i wasnt going to see him for very long on christmas day. We ended up watching a dvd, as we usually do, while we ate and then until he had to go home.
I woke up late on christmas day, which is something i do very rarely. Mum then came in with breakfast and so i ate my breakfast in bed while pondering which stocking filler to open first. Then JL started pounding on the wall between our rooms and calling me to go into his room. Before i actually got up, he had pounded the wall several times, shouted me 3 times and texted me. eventually i got up, picked up my presents and went into his room where i climbed into his bed (with some annoyed muttering from him) and opened the stocking fillers :) i recieved the traditional orange and £1 and also harry potter 6 and some bath stuff :) when we went downstairs the 4 of us went and sat in the lounge to open the presents that we had under the tree. My main presents were a micro hi-fi component system for my ipod, a radley handbag, some charms for my bracelet, a ring, a ds game and some clothes. i was also given more bath stuff, chocolate, and some writing pads that match my school bag. Dad took me to M's house on the way to pick up my grandparents, where i opened my present from him (the clothes) and he opened his present(s) from me. It was very funny watching him do his, as they were in a box that was filled with polystyrene beans :P When i got home all the family was there and mum was finishing off dinner. We all sat down and ate our starters and the retired to the lounge to open the remaining presents before we had our main meal. Me and US were the only people to finish the whole plate of food.

TO BE CONTINUED...

...

I dont have much to write this evening. Not much has really happened..
College is the same as ever.. work, hang out with friends, work some more, go home, work more..
the weekened was good..
me and dad went into Nuneaton saturday morning just for some odds and sods. Then we went to melton mobray with mum and we spent about an hour in a jewellery shop looking at pandora charms :) i spent £80 even tho i only wanted to spend £40.. :/ i was then taken to M's house and we had an awesome night in.
In the morning mum and dad picked us up and took us to epsom to see J.

And that's probably all i can say cos i cant think of anything else and true blood is on and i want to watch it cos i love it so much :P

Good Times

Last week was halloween. But thats obvious.. Me and J came up with an idea of what to do for halloween, so me J, A and R all ended up going round to M's house because none of us were particularly bothered about doing anything fancy. The 5 of us played on the wii all night and ate pizza. It was a good night. M had asked me to take gh4 so i took the game my guitars and the microphone. When A saw the microphone he insisted that he used it, so in turns we had A J R and M all wailing into it..
The week was usual for me, school, homework and hanging around with friends :) but that changed on friday.. On friday when i came home after school i had to blitz the playroom and conservatory for my birthday party on saturday :D The conservatory was done quite quickly with just a few odd jobs to do on saturday but i did not bother with the playroom..
Saturday came and so me mum and dad cracked on with the tidying. At 9.45 a man came to fit a new carpet in the dining room which paused the cleaning. By 10.40 the house was clean and everything had been put away that was not in its correct place. Also JM and AW had arrived which was good :) JM and AW helped with the last few bits of preparing, including getting mattresses out the loft for people who were staying over :) Me JM and AW took a walk down to balloonatiks to get some balloons for the party - we were sent a very long way round to the shop and so it took a long time.. When we got back mum and dad had gone out to do food shopping.. we sat down and blew up the balloons and scattered them through the conservatory and playroom.
M and J came over at 4.30 just before my parents arrived with the food. The 6 of us then started properly setting up, including hanging lights, cooking food and putting sweets in bowls around the place. It was all systems go and everyone was moving very quickly. When everything was done, the boys went on guitar hero and me and JM went to get dressed ready for the party. As people started to arrive we turned off the wii and sat around talking. When everyone was here we moved to the conservatory turned on the music and the party really started. People helped themselves to food and drinks and i went around taking photos :P Nobody knew everyone who was going other than me, but everyone seemed to get on well enough :) A slowish song came on the ipod and me and jo did a kind of slow dance to it - was funny :P then i put 'a little piece of heaven' on and me and M danced as he promised :D Some of the others thought it was a strange choice of song but they didnt understand the significance of it :P
By 11 o clock there were 6 of us left, Me M JM AW JH and E, they were the people staying over :) The 6 of us moved to the playroom and watched the 'moulin rouge'. M ended up falling asleep on me even though he said he wasnt going to.. We finally did go to bed at about 2.30 although us girls stayed awake talking for a while :D
When i woke up on sunday, the others girls were still asleep so i went to see if the boys were up and ended up lying in bed with M talking to him and AW. Eventually we all went downstairs and i was able to open my presents :) I got a load of chocolate, a charm for my bracelet, slippers, pj's, 'where's wally' underwear, a book, a digital photoframe and a load of otherstuff as well as a load of £'s :) We had breakfast and then AW JM and E had to go. Me M and JH sat around talking until JH got picked up.
M had a race in the afternoon so dad took us to the track. JB came in and said happy birthday and we stood talking while M was racing :) M won!! he came first in both races :) and is now the 'anti-clockwise champion 09' :D MB was not happy, i dont think he was over the bumping from the last race, and apparently he doesnt like loosing.. But M deserved it :) JB brought us back to my house after the race and once again my parents were out so the 2 of us just messed around. My grandparents came over at 5.30 for dinner but me and M were going to Millennium fields to see the firework display :) it was very cold but the fireworks were good and the best thing was that i was with M :) We got back to my house had dinner with my family, talked for a bit, put some photos on my digital photo frame and then had to take M home.
It was a good weekend and i enjoyed it thoroughly :) The people who went to the party have said that they had a good time :) and i hope they did :)


That is me up to date again so..
..until next time
