    These things evade me....
    Well... I did promise to be on yesterday but inevitability struck - as these things do - and I couldn't get the internet to work..... as it stands I should have looked for the obvious (That in fact the router wasn't switched on) rather than mucking about with technical stuff for an hour and a half and shouting abuse at my laptop.
    But of course THAT would have been sensible!

    So....I'll start with yesterdays meanderings and see how long I can make this post before dragging it over to today :)
    As from yesterday I'll have you know that I am now officially poor.... I bought a PSP! And a few games. So at least I'm happy.... While poor..... Hmmmm.
    Anyway, I spent most of the day with Gary in my wonderful local town! We have a Costa coffee shop and everything! We met up with my friend Rosie in the afternoon and did an exchanging of xmas pressies, as well as catching up, etc. She approves of my Gary ^_^
    he's very nice, and you are more relaxed and laugh more
    so there we go. :) A close, positive observation!

    Today: I met Gary during his lunch break and we hung about together ^_^ aaah simple pleasures! Then he went back to work and I spontaneously went out shopping with parents. A decision I soon regretted because it was very cold today, plus shopping + me = not good combination, but still, family bonding, etc. Parents seemed happy so I suppose that's something positive.
    Mum very kindly bought me two tops, as I am poor and can't affford anything XD Don't worry I'm being paid on tuesday, I'm not destitute. I'm also being paid LOTS by Co-op on the fourteenth because of all the extra hours I've done, plus christmas bonuses!!!
    So then we came home and watched a movie called "Identity". Which was just..... weird, to be truthful. And gory, so I spent most of the time behind a pillow.
    Then watched "M*A*S*H 30th Anniversary Reunion" ^_^ Now I feel like watching all the episodes again! I might do that later..... Meh... Depends what's on......

    Ah! Here's a little annoying problem I found. You know you always find something you want when you can't afford it? Well I found a rather interesting email from ents24.com this evening:

    Michael McIntyre Dates: Wedgewood Rooms - 16th March
    Andy Parsons Dates: Wedgewood Rooms - 27th April
    Dara O'Briain Dates: Southsea Kings, Theatre Royal - 13th May

    Hmph! I will find the money! I must see these people!!!! *counts down for cheque to arrive in post*

    You know... I've seen some people use their blogs as portals for incredibly deep thinking...... I feel like I should put something deep and meaningful at the end of this...... Ah here we go! I remember this quote from years ago, be damned if I know where it's come from though.....

    "As I was coming up the stairs, I met a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today, I wish, I wish, he's go away"

    ....Deeeeeep......

    Another day is over....
    ... And I must go to sleep!

    Right! I am off to bed as I haven't quite got out of the habit of being asleep before unsociable hours yet so my head is starting to pound slightly from lack of sleep.
    I dare say I shall have screwed my sleeping pattern up adequetely before i get back to college XD

    I shall probably be on tomorrow, so goodnight dear Mitchell lovers! Happy chatting, happy writing, happy Slashing! :P and I will speak to you soon!

    Creativity
    I am bored, and as you all know, boredom can only lead to creativity, which is why I am a' blogging ^_^
    Well christmas has been and gone for another year! now's the time to buy discount sofas, flick through and see what good movies are on, and save for it all again for next year.

    Did everyone get what they wanted for christmas? I think I'm becoming too technology orrientated, I was happiest with my external harddrive (250GB!!!!!!!) and a free view box :P yeah, I love being treated to a good time XD

    Gary has bought himself a PSP and now I want one ~_~ I am blaming all games related spontineity on him as he is the only gaming person I know. Therefore it must be his fault.
    Anyway, I was saving up for a new clarinet.... but..... ohhhh! they're both so shiny!!! Well the clarinet is about £600 and the PSP is about £150, but then I'd have to buy games and accessories!
    It's a moral dilemma :P

    Anyway I did the same as pretty much everyone else on christmas day, I ate too much and enjoyed the much gift giving!
    On boxing day I went to work and earnt monies, as you do. wasn't too long thank goodness, only 4 hours. I spent the rest of the day trying to sort out a PC game Gary had given me. (Apparently it doesn't like my driver :S) I finished off the rest of my books while waiting for it to work. So now I have nothing to read :'( Waterstones!!!! Or amazon? Although they won't come until monday or later now....:(

    My sister's boyfriend has the mumps, so we're all on high alert! Found out about 2 hours ago so mum has proceeded to ring EVERYONE in a 20 mile radius. I was given the wonderful task of researching about mumps on google and relaying back the information. I now know everything about this disease, so be sure, if I get it, I will know all the technical words for my symptoms.

    Gahhhhh! I'm listening to Lee Mack and he's just said that David Mitchell was on with him last night!! Noooooo!!! Why didn't I know? Whyyy!!!! :( I wonder if it's on "listen again"?.....
    Anyway, he's talking to Catherine Tate now, she seems alright, don't really like her show but she seems quite nice.


    EDIT: I've had icon comments, so i thought I'd help the conversation flow:
    Photobucket
    Photobucket
    Photobucket


    EDIT 2: I think I will attempt to write now! I'm feeling particularly creative!
    Where should I start..... Hmmmmm...... Any particular suggestions from the board?

    Also: Have you seen David in "Jam and Jerusalem's" new advert?? I only saw it today! He looks soooo cute!!! I must remember that's on!

    Two days to go!
    Hello all :) How have we been? Good? Two days left! Is the turkey ready? Are the presents wrapped? Has the migraine started yet?

    Well I was reading Gary's blog while listening to old advert songs (as you do) and waiting for the taxi to take me to work,and I was inspired to write..... Didn't really get as far as what I was going to write though...... I can't really remember anything that's happened past yesterday..... I knew there was a reason I wrote these things daily!

    I'll tell you about the recent past and maybe something will come back to me.

    So friday morning I woke up for work at normal time, got dressed, etc, etc, went outside to get my bike and nearly fell over the ice was so thick! I got my bike out and went halfway up the road, then found out it was a pointless exercise if you can't physically get on the bloody thing without falling over. So I slowly walked back home and called to say I wasn't going to come in. It was the last day anyway so I suppose it doesn't matter an incredible amount. I still feel a bit guilty though; however, between causing massive bodily injury to myself or not getting paid for one day I think I'll choose the latter. Sort of makes you feel sorry for kamakarzi pilots really.
    Then I went back to bed and wrote an incredibly short, sleep deprived story in my notebook. looking back over it makes me think that it is a fairly good idea though.... I may write it up properly later.

    I am now typing with gloves on as it is cold and I'm not allowed to turn the heating on 0'_'0. Apologies for any spelling mistakes I haven't corrected.
    Anyway; on friday I was in commercial road shopping with Gary. Fair testimont to him I feel - I don't really like shopping all that much, It doesn't seem to fill me with a sense of undescribable joy like it does with many other people. Ah well, never mind.

    Work and dresses
    I'm typing this while waiting for dinner to be cookedth, and then i think I will go to bed, purely because this is one of the first nights free I've had in a while, so I intend to use it wisely!
    ......
    Although I really wanted to watch the new series of Dead Zone..... Meh, it's on Sci Fi anyway so the chances of me seeing it are slim...... I should really get the first series of that, the new episodes are a bit confusing currently.

    Anyway! I've stupidly agreed to loads of hours at Co-op, so I was working there today, I'll be working tomorrow, saturday, next tuesday, next thursday and friday, and then christmas eve and boxing day. Plus I've been told thery want me for other days before christmas too 0_0 Noooooo!!!! Don't wanna!!!
    If it weren't for the fact my Uni account is dwindling and christmas has smacked me round the face with the money stick I think I'd use christmas to catch upon all the sleep I've missed since September.
    ....
    Ok that was borderline ranting, sorry about that.
    I have to find a dress....Apparantly. For a christmas dinner my Music teacher(s) are doing. I wonder if my sister has a black one I can borrow.... I do have two, but they're a bit "flouncy" and thin for this time of year.
    I'm Not BUYING a new dress! It's one night! I like to spend my money on USEFUL things! Like overpriced chocolate and creme brulee ^_^ At least I know I'll enjoy them!

    I have deduced I am probably in a bad mood. This is because mum keeps telling me I am. She's just told me this again.
    How often does a person have to say something before it becomes true?
    I wish people would tell me if I'm being moody/mean/horrible/etc and so on while I'm doing it so I can stop myself. Because sometimes I don't realise until the line has been crossed. :( I think they should invent little alert systems for such occasions.
    ....Maybe I will suggest this to Alan Sugar and see if he agrees.

    I have just noticed I've written a really long post a not mentioned Gary or David :(

    ...I'm planning on taking Gary to Cambden! At some point in the near future. Maybe after my Co-op cheque has come in.
    ...I'm stressing out because Gary's present hasn't arrived yet 0_@ *wail*

    ...I'm thinking they should make tiny David Mitchell action figures for christmas ^_^ with added extra's like a burgundy shirt and a pair of glasses!
    Then you could keep him in your pocket!
    Maybe they should give him a mini copy of the Times as well, to keep him happy. And a tiny comb!

    ....... I think about pointless things too much.

    EDIT: I found a "spot the Innuendo" site XD with captions!
    I found out "300" definitely contains a lot of innuendo. 0_0 although I'm not suprised, from the trailers it looks like they spent most of the time running around in shiny metal with big swords. Because there's nothing to be said about THAT! None AT ALL! 0_@ Madness! XD
    ......I'm now waiting for someone to pick up on that last word and turn it into a quote so I can fall off my chair! Anyone? Anyone at all?

    Teh Weekend Of London-ness!
    Well, you wouldn't know it, but I am actually alive :P

    So my weekend: I spent the last one in London with Rosie, so that was nice ^_^

    Friday: Spent the day with Gary because we had a teacher shopping day at college. Then I went and got the train to London Waterloo, then the tubes to Imperial College halls. I'm glad to say I DIDN'T get lost! I also didn't get bombed, mugged or any of the other things the media says happens when you leave your front door, something tells me they're lying to us!
    Anyway, I got there, Rosie introduced me to a dozen people I've now forgotten the names of, she also made pizza ^_^ and showed me around the halls.

    Saturday: Well I promised Rosie I'd encourage her to be cultured, or "look expensive" as normal people call it, so we went to Harrods because she'd never been. I think she was suitably gobsmacked.
    Then we spent the afternoon in Cambden, which, for those who don't know, is Goth Central!!! you want black, they have black; in every possible fashion known. We were there for 5 hours and we STILL didn't get round the whole place :( the perfect excuse to go back I think ;)
    So at about 6 we went back to the halls and made Spag bol. Then I met even more of Rosie's friends and sampled mixed drinks in the dark..... No, I'm not really sure why we were in the dark either..... Anyway, then we piled into Kasha's room (Rosie's best uni friend) and watched Equilibrium until 2am :)
    Then I went to bed.

    Sunday: Rosie showed me round her Uni, tis very niiiice! Then we went off to the Science museum because it was about 200 yards down the road, and then the Natural History museum. Although I don't think I absorbed anything useful and informative. Then we went and had Chicken nuggets and chippies ^_^ and I got back on the train and she went off to get ready for a christmas party that was going on later........ Didn't get attacked or lost on the way home either ^_^ woo!

    And now it's today! So I cleaned and learnt stuff at college. I then met Gary on his lunch break at work, which was cut short a bit because he felt ill :( he's been feeling like that a lot recently, I hope it's just a string of bad luck we've got on our hands here. He's booked a doctor's appointment though so hopefully things will sort themselves.

    I've worked myself into a dilemma over Uni currently. I really want to go to Brunel but after going to London and seeing how lonely she seems I'm not sure I want to be that far away from home anymore...... hmm, this needs some serious "laying on the bed" thinking. Maybe I'm being silly. I think I go and see Hannah at some point (she is at one of the local Uni's I applied for) and see her side of living closer to home.

    Quick contemplation: Why are pear drops only yellow and pink? Why not other colours? And why are they called pear drops anyway? They taste nothing like Pears.


    I'm sure there are other things that have happened, but I can't quite remember them currently.

    Oh Nicole's just given me an advent calender, how nice ^_^ I shall eat 10 of them.

    Hey Look, another Quiz!
    I've been inundated with these, but I like doing them ^_^

    Read more... )

    Anyway, my week: As you know I went to see Bill Bailey on Tuesday ^_^ Yah! So much fun! He was very political this time round, he talked a lot about Brown and Bush. He also talked about ASDA a lot. Oh, and James Blunt XD Apparently he is evol!

    Wednesday: Went off to usual lessons. Spent most of English talking about everything EXCEPT what we were supposed to be talking about. The conversations varied.... I don't really remember any of them.... I know most of them were quite surreal..... Oh, and I had a really nice cookie ^_^
    Went off to band, came home from band, ate some chinese food, attacked some people on facebook with my "superpowers", went to bed.

    Today: It rained ~_~ so I got the incredibly sexy mack out and looked a prat going down the road. Luckily the rain had stopped by the time I'd finished work so no one had to see the mack in broad daylight. Went home, saw Gary ^_^ first time in 4 days! Well, I saw him on wedesday, but that was in a lesson, that doesn't count :P. So yeah, we sort of watched Spiderman 3, then I walked him down to the bus stop - pausing briefly at the sandwich shop so he could get lunch, I paused briefly on the way back to get a doughnut - then I've been working on my personal statement. But now it's DONE!!! YEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!! I just need my tutor to sign the form and it's ready. Just in time for the deadline. *phew*
    I meant to do some more work on my story so Ray could look at it tomorrow..... Maybe I'll do some tomorrow morning.

    HAPPY REALISATIONS: I don't have to work from 22nd Dec until 3rd Jan! Yah!! I thought I had to work 29th, 30th and 31st but apparently not. So I'm very happy :D I get to sleeeeep! for 11 days!

    What else? Oh yes, I'm going to see Mark Watson on tuesday! Woop! I found I person to come with me ^_^ I always knew boyfriends were good for something ;P
    Then it's David Mitchell plus others on friday, then I'm seeing Rosie (and Hannah now possibly?) Ah, life is good. Life is great! I Love Life!

    I sound like a muller yogurt advert.

    Anyway, mum's just called me for dinner so I'm off. :)

    Sorry!!!!!
    Ok, this is a MASSIVE apology! I haven't been here in ages! It's all down to college, I've spent most of last week and today doing essays, harmony work, my personal statement, etc, etc, and so forth. It's calmed down a bit now so hopefully I will be online a bit more, but I've been going to bed at about 10:30pm every night just because I've been knackered beyond belief!

    Ok, well apart from work a fair amount has happened. I went to see Michael Buble on friday in Brighton, that was fun! ^_^ I had very sore hands at the end, too much raptious applause methinks!

    On saturday I went off to a party, which was more enjoyable than expected. Nobody got particularly drunk I'm pleased to say, and I got to meet all of Gary's friends so there were bonuses all round! ^_^
    Though memo to self on this occasion; next time bring electrical heated sleeping bags! And remember pillows! Apart from that it was fun, certainly better than some other parties I've been to. I think the added part that someone is there that you can hide behind is a BIG help in this!

    Lots of other things have happened this week, but TBH they've all moulded into one big blurry mass. All I know is it's been busy. Very busy!

    It was meant to be a short post
    Just a general weeekend post tonight, I should really hang around and catch up on my posting lark but somehow sleep just sounds like such a good idea right now :P

    Ok, so I'll go through the weekend methodically to help my brain remember exactly what has happened:
    Friday - Same old creative writing class, Ray (our teacher) told us about how cheap it was to live in Romania, and Gary and I discussed - in hushed voices - the mental patient at the back of the class. (Think of the Mitchell Stalker we all know and love, you'll get the general idea)
    Went off to English, stayed there for approximately 15 minutes, before being told to get lost and do some coursework. So, on that note, Caroline, Gary and I went off to the college coffee house instead :) (Yes I know, rebel child, it's terrible) So we sat there for about 2 and a half hours eating shortcakes Gary had bought from ASDA and talking to a variety of people, some friends, some I've never really met in my life; such as a guy called Nick who came and chatted to us for a bit about.... Well anything really ^_^ so that was fun!
    Finally went back to English at about 4pm (lesson ended at 4:15pm) just to make sure no homework was set, etc. Turns out we should have been back at 2:15pm 0_0 ooops! She never said anything went I went and spoke to her at 2pm I might add!

    Friday Evening: Well Gary walked me home - because he's lovely - and we sat around the house for a bit until I had to go off to Band.
    Band, I might add, is supposed to be on from 7pm till 8pm - this never happens, it ALWAYS overuns - this time it went on until 10pm! But the fun didn't end there, my Teacher had given a saxophone lesson to a friend, who happened to be a radio presenter, and they'd recorded it for children in need. So of course it was broadcast on a few BBC sourthern radio stations that night. Between 10pm and 1am. So in the end I ended up at the music place until approximately 1:15 in the morning. -_- yah.

    Saturday: The Christmas Church fair was on so I helped out there a bit. The old people were impressed, see teenagers AREN'T all drug addicted whores! Umm came home, picked Gary up from work to avoid him getting wet. And sat down, ordered curry and watched the Green Mile. An exceptionally weird film, but it had some excellent one liners! It also goes on for about 3 hours! Don't watch unless incredibly bored!

    Sunday: Went off to church yet again for the service. Came home, fell asleep, woke up, went off to Gary's sisters birthday party ^_^ she was 6, it was so cute! They all had little Disney princess outfits on because of the fancy dress theme!
    Err what happened? It's all a blur, met the parents I think they liked me? I hope they did anyway, there didn't seem to be any ill feeling.
    I found I have 2 conversation switches: Either "not talking because she doesn't know what to say ", or "saying something funny because that's all she can think of at the time". Fun.
    And oh there was cake. There was a very, very nice cake. A cake that would put TESCO'S cakes to shame! A three TIERED cake no less! :D Also fun, just to watch people cut it was fun, it was like watching a space mission. ever-so-accurate and oh-so-careful.
    So after that we sat about and abused Virgin Media TV's on demand service by watching the "world stands up" series. Which, for those that don't know, is basically just stand up comedy from 4 different comedians every week. Just 5 minute slots for each.

    Came home, ahd a shower, scraped some sunday roast food out of various pans etc and ate them in a bowl ^_^ so much sofisication! Had a shower, drunk some tea, and now I'm here!

    And that was my weekend, thankyou and goodnight!

    Teh Remindre - Please watch TV!
    This is your friday TV reminder: HIGNFY, Armstrong And Miller AND QI are on tonight!!! ^_^
    It like fridays!

    Well it was freezing again this morning, I may have to find out my little green hat to wear for the journey to work instead of putting my hood up all the time and looking like a early morning chav.
    On the plus side, everything looked very pretty and sparkled! Even by the time I got home!

    I was listening to an old recording of Russell and Jon's show on my Ipod this morning, so i'm going to have both their voices in my head for the next 2 hours. As a consequence my posts will either be outlandish and creative, or sullen and derogatory.

    It's exactly a week until I see Mr Buble in Brighton ^_^ Yay!
    It's also exactly a week before Jon Richardson is at the Wedgewood Rooms doing a gig, I'm very upset I can't go :( why do these things have to clash so badly?

    There was a great photo opportunity in the park on the way home; the grass was covered in thick white frost and a lone tree was in the middle of the park with a big circle of shed yellow leaves around it. It looked so good! I had no camera though :( It was a postcard photo moment!

    So yes, it's friday, so I dare say I'll be posting something random to signify it later..... For now I'm off to get some breakfast....I think I shall fry some mushrooms!

    Choices, Choices!
    Well, It's taken 2 days, but I've finally decided on a new myspace background! *woo*
    .....I don't really like it anymore though, too many adverts. ~_~ It'll just have to stay that way, I'm not changing it again!

    Today was fun! Music was cancelled so I didn't have to go in, I've managed to get all my work done for now, I even did some work that's due in NEXT week! I am organised! I wonder how long that will last?
    Gary came over ^_^ we ate BBQ chicken pizza and watched MTW. It's all about the simple things! Then he had to go off to college :( Ah well, at least I ticked a few things off the to-do list where general things are concerned. No 1 being making sure the posts here were updated, No 2 being to do some writing......... I should really do that.......

    ....I've just had a thought, it's the 15th, I would've been paid by Co-op yesterday! ^_^

    ......15 days till my completed UCAS form has to be in. :( God I hate deadlines.

    I think I'll work on something writing orrientated now.....

    I shall market portable heated jackets and make a fortune! Then I will no longer be cold!

    Co-op called; In the middle of a mock music exam 0_0 I made the excuse that it was really important. Well it was in a way, money is important in my life, and work provides money!
    Anyway they wanted me to work in a different Co-op than usual, a few miles away, a place with no direct bus from where I am! They backed me into a corner over it so I had to go, (7pm till 10pm this eve) but I was NOT happy!
    I have to go tomorrow aswell, 1pm till 6pm. *Sigh* I think I'll get a taxi. After all the changing buses and malarky I'll waste around the same amount of money on transport anyway.
    I thought the whole point of getting a job near where you live is so you don't have to make these journeys. I am not Co-ops whore! You cannot send me where you please!

    How was everybody's weekend? Good? I went off to Northampton on the saturday and did the "keeping mum awake on a long journey" routine. Wasn't very good at it this time round, I should have got more sleep the night before. But we didn't crash and die, so it was alright in the end :)

    Sunday I went out with Gary on the "official date" oooh fancy ^_^ we went to the cinema, And the Water Margin - Chinese buffet restaurant-thing. Which was nice. :D
    Speaking of which; we've lasted the week! It's now week and nearly 4 days so I'm impressed. TBH I'm still waiting for something to happen. Eg - "and it was all a dream." or the obvious one; he'll turn round and figure out he doesn't really like me after all.
    Lets hope neither happen eh?

    Ummm came home on sunday and saw my uncle - the one that's decided he's going to get married suddenly. So that was a nice change :)

    Well that's about it for the weekend. Also Bought Stephen Fry's autobiography from HMV. £3 people, you can't turn down these things!

    Other things happened too, but they mostly involved Gary, and I'm guessing nobody will love me for disclosing them so I won't.

    Although we did get chips on his lunch break today. And he walked to my house in the dark from work. And he was wearing a very snazzy suit today ^_^ Because he has to wear it for work.
    I may insist on the suit.
    Or just the jacket
    Or shirt, I'm not bothered.
    No Danni! Clothes changing is for marriage!

    Pretty Lights! ^_^
    Went to see the IBM fireworks with Gary this evening, saw them through the trees, I sort of misjudged the time they started. I'm never organising anything again! It was fine though, we stood and watched anyway, and afterwards we got some chips and sat and ate them on a bench while I probed Gary with "either/or" questions.
    I still owe him money for chips actually.....

    Mum's not impressed that I'm back "early" - 9pm? I thought that was quite reasonable - I think she feels the meeting went badly. Meh.

    I've been very forgetful today, worse than usual! Absolutely terrible!

    Came home to a lovely little package today, I've haven't opened it yet, but I know what's inside. Books! ^_^ I now have 5 to read. Yah! I'm work my way through them tomorrow, I have most of the day off.

    I also came home to an empty house, everyone went shopping without me! So I got to choose what to watch for approx 20mins until Dad came in. Now I'm watching Law And Order.

    Who wants to give me money for a professional B13 Buffet Clarinet? I had to steal someones clarinet today because the part was needed at saxophone ensemble. (Actually we really needed a soprano Saxophone, but I can't afford one of those either) Anyway it was above said clarinet I stole and it was gorgeous! So nice to play! Downside; they start at about £1200.....Ah who needs Uni?

    The Short Summary
    Hey! It's Tuesday!
    I've just eaten tomato soup for lunch for the 4th time in 6 days. Obsessional?
    Then again I've seen Gary 4 times in the past 3 days and everyone calls that love. I'm obviously in love with tomato soup ^_^ Or obsessed with Gary.....
    Came home to a lovely note from mum: "please do ironing".... Suppose I should do that soon. Should really do that english essay too *groan*
    ......I may make a list of things I need to do.
    Going to watch the IBM fireworks tomorrow ^_^ pretty!
    Right Simon Pegg is distracting me with his wittisms so I may as well crack on.

    EDIT: Oh the fireworks have started again, what joy. ~_~

    Found Him!
    I have a boyfriend *insert girly scream here* :D
    How? Well I'm not really sure...

    Ok, I'll tell you about him; he's a lot like me really, in fact he's scarily like me TBH! I'll spare you the soppy details, because there aren't that many. I'll keep you updated until someone tells me to shut it!

    In other news....
    Went to a Halloween party and avoided the teenagers ;) they were talking about the best time they were drunk! So I ran away and sat with the 40+ people, they were talking about the Le mans racetrack, which I understand a bit more.
    The cat with no name came and sat on me, which gave the perfect excuse of sitting in the same place for 3 hours *mwah* and reading my book :) And people fed me "Rose" wine until 1am 0_0

    Ummm this morning went to church, came home, Gary came round and we did the vague parents meeting, they "approve". Woo. I suppose that's something!

    And that was my weekend! Wonder what the week will bring?

    Garden VS Money
    Today we found out the deposit went through for the garden. So everything is set, it's being sold. *sigh*
    I'll explain; this is our garden:
    Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

    AND before you start, no I'm not a posh twat, the house needed a lot of work when we got it, which is why it was so cheap. It was also during the price crash in 1999. So there you go. :) Just in case anyone accuses me of anything.

    Anyway, the bottom bit up until the middle where it dips in will be sold off. We have to cut down the end tree some time next week.
    Why are we selling it? Usual thing, bills, mortgage, it's mum and dads pension scheme basically, which is understandable.

    It's very sad though, I grew up in that garden. :(

    EDIT Part one of the Halloween fic (Which will definitely NOT be finished by halloween) is finished! Yahoo! ^_^ I think I'll wait until the plot of part 2 is secure before posting it. I do have a tendancy to go off on a tangent.
    Also, I am definitely spending the weekend in London with Rosie Posie in December! Yah!!! :D I'll be boucing all the way through November now ^_^

    Looking Back...
    I've been thinking about this for a while; in hindsight I wouldn't of done any of my original A level courses. I've done a lot of um-ing and er-ing education wise, and now that I'm half way through my second year of college I finally know! Bloody typical!

    Ok, I originally did:

    Music
    English Literature
    Psychology
    Sociology

    I changed colleges after a year, changing a few courses because of certain issues:

    Music - Had to retake
    English Language
    Psychology - Had to transfer the course
    Advanced Music
    This year it's the same, only I dropped Psychology.
    If I could do it all again I'd do these courses instead:

    English Language - I'd keep that one
    History
    Politics
    Philosophy

    Completely different? Yeah I know! Damn! I can't do another year at college though!

    .....It's been a slow day, that's why I thought I'd post this.
