Hello. I guess it's been a while since I last blogged, and to the two people and an ant that read this, I'm sorry. If I'm lucky enough to have two people and an and following this, anyway.
My life, as always, has been hectic. Except for last week when I spent a third of my Christmas holidays chilling in the Caribbean, on the beach, with my physics revision. Yeah, not so much. But anyway, GCSE mocks are coming up, and I will have to work my head off if I want to get those A*s.
But that's not the only reason for needing my A*s... also I have been accepted to a different, VERY prestigious sixth form, which I need six A/A*s to get in. Which I am hoping I will get anyway, because don't really want to get less than an A in anything, but this is to motivate me.
But this us where the dilemma begins.
STAY:
Friends
Know everyone/everywhere
Suit
GO:
New people
New teachers
New places
Uniform
Boarding
International Baccalaureat
So... what to do?
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go; I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home. I'll spend forever wondering if you knew; This night is flawless, don't you let it go... I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone, I'll spend forever wondering if you knew... I was enchanted to meet you ♥

Enchanted
Ohemgee, I feel like a squealing fangirl. Probably because I am one, and if you check out the little Twitter box next to this post you'll see why... my last posts all revolve around a certain trending topic: #speaknow.
You see, Speak Now is trending because somebody totally awesome and made of amazing has just released her third album... TAYLOR SWIFT!! ♥
And I am in love with it. In fact, there is not a single song I do not like. All the songs are my favourites. I even got the iTunes Extended Edition too, I am just that obsessed. But I think that just slightly, slightly, my favourite song is 'Enchanted'. Sure, it's almost six minutes long, but that's six minutes of pure awesomeness. It's such a beautiful song xD
Enough with the sappiness, I also like the song 'Better than Revenge'... the lyrics made me LOL. Properly xD
Lurve, kisses and Taylor-Swift-esque lyrics,
Tee xxxxx ♥

If life were an apple tree...
Girls
are like
apples on trees.
The best ones are
at the top of the tree.The
boys don't want to reach
for the good ones because they
are afraid of falling and getting hurt.
Instead, they just get the rotten apples
from the ground that aren't as good,
but easy. So the apples at the top think
something is wrong with them, when in
reality, they're amazing. They just
have to wait for the right boy to
come along, the one who's
brave enough to
climb all
the way
to the top
of the tree.
Copied and pasted off the internet... but I loove this little spark of wisdom :)

If I had a band...
... I'd name it:
Apostrophe Catastrophe
Drama Llama
I'm In The Mood For A Bitch Fight
Mwahaha
Untitled
...Just a little insight into my mind there :D
Oh and PS, inspiration goes to @AntiSterling over on Twitter for the third one. Even though I'm not a superfan of Sterling anymore, I can't help but to defend @anca_anky when things get rough... and i'm just bored. Band name explains itself, really... read my latest tweet to see what I mean (it's in reply to @AntiSterling)... Mwahaha!

And of course I just had to post this...
Today was a fairytale video!! With glimpses of Lucas Till!! I may have to post 'you belong with me' vid now... :P
What is it about Taylor Swift's music that makes you want to cry?? :')
THE MINE VIDEO!!!! OFFICIALLY ONE OF MY TOP FIVE JUMBLE OF FAVOURITE MUSIC VIDEOS (so far!!) WITH:
Marina & The Diamonds - Oh No!
Diane Birch - Valentino
Zarif - Over
Taylor Swift - Fifteen
Here it is!!! It made me cry. I adore Taylor Swift and I've been listening to all her music since watching Valentine's Day (which was awful but hilarious) last night and hearing 'Today Was A Fairytale', which I love :D

This song makes me crazier, crazier...
I love Crazier by Taylor Swift. I just discovered it and it has been playing on a loop 57 times. That's a record even for me! I know the video's from HM the movie, but it's such a beautiful song and I now own the piano sheet music for it. I'm cool like that :P

Today, aka What To Do Three Days Before School Starts And You Need To Get On With Work
I have a pile of English papers, artwork and Latin learning to do in three days.
Today, I:
Woke up at 10:30am
Got up at 1:00
Talked to friends on the phone about meaningless nothings
Snuggled up in bed with Starstruck, chocolate, tissues and a homemade mocha
Had a piece of chocolate cake for lunch
Listened to a playlist of songs to make me happy because I felt crap, such as High School Musical and StarStruck soundtracks
Listened to Stop SPS on a loop twelve times because it made me laugh so much
Watched the 'Chad Without A Chance' Promo on YouTube
Painted over my red, 'England' nails with black nail polish
Painted my toenails apple green
Added yellow and purple stripes to my toenails
Gave my left hand blue tips, and my right hand pink tips
Gave my feet pink spots
Bought the Zarif album off iTunes
Listened to 'Box of Secrets' song on a loop
Danced around my room to said song
Ate pizza
Watched X Factor briefly, leaving after Simon said he would change his name to Lightning
Read at least fifty Channy FanFictions
Tweeted at least one hundred times
Wished my friend a happy 16th Birthday via Facebook
What I didn't do today:
Schoolwork or revision.

Rant xD
I went to London yesterday! I'm going again on Friday. Yesterday we were in Covent Garden, and I was dragged (not unwillingly, as much as I'd hate to admit it) into the Disney store with Becky to look for adult-sized princess outfits. Surprisingly (not) they didn't stock them, but I was happy because I spotted the Starstruck DVD in there (unfortunately amongst the Handy Manny's and Club Penguin franchise DVDs).
And then we spotted the beach towels.
With Hannah Montana and Vanessa Hudgens on.
And somebody, I can't remember who, said (jokingly) that there should be a Sterling Knight one.
I said I'd buy it! Of course I would! (Cue inappropriate comments from Laura xD)
And unfortunately they don't do them, I even looked on the disney website :(
And Becky and I have decided, in the British Museum, that when we go to EuroDisney next year, one of the days we're going as princesses, and the next day we're going to go as Mackenzie Falls people and see if anyone recognizes our costumes.
We're not joking.
Anyway, my rant... I just realised, how come Disney manage to snag all the hot actors? It's just not fair! For example:
-Sterling Knight (Duh, top of my list)
-Zac Efron (yes, he is fir, as much as I hate to admit it)
-David Henrie (he's such a cutie!)
-Lucas Till (the only reason I watched Hannah Montana The Movie. I did. I was on a plane though, and there were no better choices...)
-Cole Sprouse (I prefer him to Dylan)
-Brandon Smith (Laura thinks he's fit, anyway... although the chin pompoms in Starstruck are enough to put me off him...)
-Corbin Bleu (he has freakin' amaaazing hair)
-Jason Dolley (I haven't seen him in a while, but when I watched CITH when I was younger... Phwoooar xD)
-Cody Linley (when he was younger, he's a bit... uglier now xD)
And that's about all I can think of at the moment.
NOTE I AM NOT PUTTING THE JONAS BROTHERS I HAVE HATED THEM FOREVER, ESPECIALLY SINCE STERLING LOST THE TCA TO THEM.
So yes. Which brings me onto my second rant topic, which is
WHY DOES STERLING NEVER TAKE HIS TOP OFF IN STARSTRUCK?
I mean, we get the wet shirt scene, ala Colin Firth in Pride & Prejudice, but what boy in their right mind would sit around in a wet shirt? And we KNOW, Sterling, that you have at least a six pack under there (I actually dissected the film: I paused it at a certain point at least six times until my friends had enough and stole the remote from me) so in the future, TAKE IT OFF!!!
And as a little last minute thing, Sterling's filming a thriller movie atm in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, called 'Transit' with James Frain... and his Twitter pics look exciting, so when it hits cinemas I'll be the first one to see it, even though I prefer rom-coms to thrillers... But as long as Sterling doesn't die, i'll be fine!!
That's all for now!
Peace out suckhas!!!

Heyyy.
Hey. I was on the phone today, talking, when my voice suddenly went all high and squeaky, like i had just swallowed helium, or a bubble was trying to escape from inside of me. God knows why, just thought I'd let you know, because I'm so random (ha!) like that xD

chickens!!! xD
OMC we are getting three chickens!!! If breeds mean anything, we're getting a partridge cochin, a buff laced wyanotte, and a speckled sussex (?).
The names are Flossie, Marigold and Dotty respectively.
I tried to plead my case for calling one Petunia (starstruck fans will know why) but it didn't work :(

Meteor shower xD
So, right now, as I'm sat typing this on my iPod, i am sat on an armchair by my window, resting my head on a cushion in the windowsill. The window is open and I'm currently waiting for the Perseid meteor shower to begin. It's nice sitting out here, I might do it more often. I have my Ellie Goulding album to keep me company, and I'm pretty sure I just saw a meteor but it was flashing so was obviously an airplane.
We don't need to pretend airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars, but I could still use a wish right now.

more time-wasting....
Just watched BGT Final... So glad Twist&Pulse are runners up, they were AMAZIN MON! Spelbound were definitely going to win from the beginning and they deserved it totally (although I would definitely avoid THAT MUCH fake tan at all costs! Plus all those six packs...... :P)!!!!!
I'm disappointed Paul Burling didn't get through, I actually watched his performance three times in a row and it was just so funny. Kieran sounded like such a sweet little boy but I feel sorry for Liam, he was soooo sweet! A really good final overall :D

ohhh gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad
so. maths gcse in two days time. biology gcse in four days time. chemistry gcse in eleven days time. physics gcse in nineteen days time. and guess what? hakf term, one week off, and i have spent most of it 'pretending' to be revising, instead delving into the depths of eva ibbotson's romance novels, facebooking, shopping and watching britains got talent. my faves are twist and pulse and liam mcnally. and you can tell i am stressed due to absense of capital letters and possible spelling mistakes. am not looking forward to going back to school, exams, results blah blah blah. i have a feeling i did spectacularly badly in english, history i forgot how to answers a couple of very long questions, rs i hardly revised for and i think latin was ok but i finished it within half an hour and it was meant to last an hour and a quarter. so i might just die, i am drowning in the abominable suffocating haze of sheets and stuffy air that is stress, stress and revizzle.

Obsessions
I have a new obsession. It is my Legally Blonde The Musical soundtrack. I can't get 'So Much Better' out of my head, but I don't mind as it's a great song. Twas amazing. And yes, like Priscilla, I DO want to go and see it again. The only bad point about the whole thing was that there weren't many (like, two) gorgeous actors/dancers/singers in it. One of the best things about it was that the girl who played Elle (Sheridan Smith) wasn't exactly size 0, which I thought was really good as, like her, neither am I. She was curvy and completely enjoying herself. I wish I could be like that! But it was amazing and I'd definitely rush to see it again... And if it was a choice between Legally Blonde and Priscilla... Well, I'll let you choose which one I'd pick by yourself... :D xx

I love London's West End
I went to see Legally Blonde The Musical today. Twas amazing.
I have now seen musicals in the West End with (in no particular order):
-Singing and dancing nuns (Sister Act, The Sound Of Music)
-Singing and dancing French revolutionaries (Les Miserables)
-Singing and dancing French opera people (Phantom of The Opera)
-Singing and dancing African animals (Lion King)
-Singing and dancing futuristic rockers (We Will Rock You)
-Singing and dancing people with big hair (Hairspray)
-Singing and dancing cars (Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Grease)
-Singing and dancing wedding guests (Mamma Mia, also seen on Broadway)
-Singing and dancing pickpockets (Oliver)
-Singing and dancing nannies (Mary Poppins)
-Singing and dancing lawyers (Legally Blonde)
-and even Singing and dancing transvestites (Priscilla Queen of the Desert)
And my top five favourites were:
1. Priscilla & Legally Blonde (yes, it WAs as good as Priscilla. Even without Oliver Thornton!)
3. Hairspray
4. Mamma Mia
5. Sister Act
And now I need to see musicals with:
-Singing and dancing witches (Wicked)
-Singing and dancing flappers (Chicago)
-Singing and dancing boys (Billy Elliot)
-more Singing and dancing French opera people (Love Never Dies)
-and Singing and dancing munchkins (The Wizard of Oz, when it comes out)
Therefore I love the theatre. I am thinking of pursuing a career in acting, but when I told my mum this she thought I was joking. When I assured her I was serious, she shouted at me that it is not a 'proper job' and I can always join Amateur Dramatics societies when I'm older and that it is 'a phase I am going through'. But I can't think of anything I'd enjoy more than singing and dancing on stage in a big, glittery musical for my career. Harumph.
Oh, and I have decided that whatever I decide to do for Uni I am going to live in London. I just love it. Whenever I go there I always feel like my it's already my home. i love it so much. If I could I'd move there now. I already feel homesick being back in Herefordshire. :(

Smothered in Revision
It's Bank Holiday Monday (yay!!) which unfortunately means I am bogged down with Latin, Maths, Chemistry, RS, Art, History, Physics, French, Biology and TWO PIECES of English Coursework. I might just suffocate. I always hate the end of the first half term in Spring because of EXAMS. AAAAAARGH!!! But this year is horrible, I've got three science modules AND two linear Maths GCSEs and plus all the other end-of-year internals. I live in Revision Ghetto in the suburbs of Good Grades City. I cannot cope. And if I'm so stressed out THIS year, what'll next year be like, with English Lit, English Lang, French, History, Latin, Art, Biology, Chemistry, Physics AND a horrible Additional Maths paper. I might DIE. Actually that would be a good idea, all tragic and literary... Actually no. Not until I've met the love of my life and had a nice time and visited lots more places and gone to Prom. And hopefully got married. And get an AMAZING job in the West End as a costume/set designer or possible actress in a musical, where I will get to wear sparkly costumes and prance about on stange generally enjoying myself. Or an interesting yet boring and not as fun job such as a lawyer or a solicitor or obstetrician, where I will get to wear designer suits and Prada heels if I get lots of money.
On the other hand, walking back from our CCF practice today (we have inspection next week and I'm right hand marker for the Navy, so the Navy follow my marching, and as everybody else follows the Navy marching effectively they're all following me, except sometimes I get confused and fall over) a rather fit boy on his bike asked me very politely if I had the time, to which I dithered and "um"ed and "ah"ed and got my phone out (shocking pink with a diamante charm... oh, the embarrassment!!) to check the time and told him that it was, in fact, five to five. He gave me a nice smile and I learnt that his name was Ben before he cycled off towards Asda. So my gloriously un-flattering CCF kit isn't that un-flattering after all. It just consists of a MAN's shirt, a MAN's trousers, a MAN's jumper, a MAN's tie, a BERET, and a granny hairnet. Such a turn on. I DON'T think. :D
So I really need to get back to my (oh, joy) Chemistry Revision. i hear it calling in that evil, alluring voice.....

50 M&S Ginger Nuts is your Guideline Daily Amount of kcal. Really.
Well, Wallpaper was cancelled, so me and Feck went to town on a quest. For a book. An utterly amazing but totally trashy book. Because we are cool. And then we went to M&S because lunch was mank (school dinners, eh?) and bought some white chocolate chip cookies (for me) a blueberry muffin (for Feck) and some Ginger Nuts for 59p (for both of us, because we are pigs). So we went up to the Pod (the teensy computer room in the English block) and found that it was locked, and Wallpaper was almost certainly off. We went to find our teacher. We went into her classroom, where music was blasting very loudly, saw that it was empty, and stood there pondering for a bit on what our next action would be. We decided to head up to the girls' toilets in the creepy, back bit of the English block (so-called the 'Harry Potter Loos' because of the cracks in the walls and the numerous, stained mirrors - as in the film Chamber of Secrets - and ancient everything). When we got there, Becky managed to bounce straight up on the ledge and kept looking out the (very large) open window in to the alley below. With a bit of a leg-up, I managed to get up too. We stuffed out faces with Ginger Nuts (but not of course before reading the percentage of kcal/salt/sugar/carbohydrates/protein/fluff in a GDA at one point I got the answer "Ten." And we had aaaaages before we were even considering to go then... And we talked. And listened to Chairlift, Belle & Sebastian and Tilly & The Wall (who have a tap-dancer instead of a drummer. How cool is that?). And guessed who lived in the house on the other side of the alley, which had a straw hat, a dry-cleaning bag, a bottle of lentils, a bottle of Egyptian sand and two clay models most likely built by a child in the window. Then we heard echoey voices of girls coming from the house and so shouted "Oooooh, we are ghosts, we will HAUNT you! Oooohhhh..." until they shut up. Which they never did in the end we gave up. And then we heard the CCF people practising their drill with guns and heard some very loud voices. And then I had to go and get my bus and had to leave Becky, so I shouted (in an ironic way, of course) "I LOVE YOU MY SHMEXY DARLING" to her and walked across the road to find some random grandpa giving me the evil eye. Ah... old people today...
So I had an interesting afternoon. And to make you laugh, I thought in Physics that before the Big Bang we were the size of "German Monkey Amoebas" (no offence to any Germans out there. It was actually "A Germ In" a monkey amoeba, but it was heard wrong. I love Germany, it is a great place and they do cabbage in a nice way).
That is my life. Yay. XD

Late Nights & Ladders in my tights
Sorry about the pointless title. I just thought it rhymed.
Talk me round, you can try
To cut off my senses, make my cry
Out to the skies and stars above
Where I know there must be love.
Sugar hearts and candy canes
I sit at home bearing the pain
From which I try, nonetheless
To be happy and forget the stress
I can't seem to remember
I seem to forget
Those soft pure words
Full of my regret
I threw away into the dirt
And then they flew away
Meaningless lyrics, and empty tune
Trying to pretend I'm immune
To human despair and floods of tears
Every single day
Tell me once and tell me twice
A glimpse of sadness in the night
The joy of seeing a new day rise
I feel so much better today.
Well, that was completely random... just a few lyrics off the top of my head. I am not depresses in any way, just in case of any implications in the verses. I am just bored.

5. Both Sides Now
I've looked at love from both sides now,
From give and take, and still somehow
It's love's illusions I recall.
I really don't know love at all.
By Joni Mitchell.
AND I HAVE AN OLIVER THORNTON COVER!!!! EEEEE :P

2. Venus
Continuing with my Priscilla Playlist - Of course, the first time we ever see Oliver on stage is during this song. I wanted to make this extra special because of this reason, but my inspiration ever so slightly drained and I ended up with this. In case it is a bit misty as to why this pic is for this song, here are the lyrics I chose for this pic:
"Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man a man
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no-one else had
Wa!
She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire..."
Possibly expect a replacement sometime soon. Song Number 2 Venus by Bananarama.
"Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man a man
Black as the dark night she was

Wa!

At your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire

1. Don't Leave Me This Way
My Priscilla Playlist underway. I know I sound like a stalker, but I am just so much more creative with a title to go by :D. And of course from Priscilla, my favourite musical, gives added inspiration (well the thought of Oliver Thornton does anyway... :D) Song Number 1: Don't Leave Me This Way by Thelma Houston.
Saturday, April 17
OH. MY. GOD. ("Oh, not AGAIN. She's such a stalker!" I hear Becky sigh) I AM COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH OLIVER THORNTON... OH, AND I ♥ PRISCILLA
Well Becky. I'm sure you're only too eager to guess what I'm about to have a mega-uber-mahoosive-giganticus-humongous-so-big-it-is-hard-to-describe-how-big-it-really-quite-is glee-fest of FABULOUS.
PRISCILLA!!!!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last Saturday I went to see "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert - The Musical" At the Palace Theatre in West End.
And OH MY GOD it was AMAZINGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know if you have heard of it, but it's only a year old here in London and, as I'm told, a huge deal Down Under in Australia. This fabby show is about two transvestites and a transsexual who are on their way to Alice Springs in the desert from Sydney, on an old, beat up tour bus called Priscilla. The reason behind this is because Tick/Mitzi's (played by Jason Donovan) ex-wife now owns the casino there and is offering them a few weeks of performing and a change of scene from dingy downtown Sydney. With Tick is Bernadette (Don Gallagher) a transsexual whose lover has recently died, and (in my opinion) the absolute STAR of the show, party boy/drag queen Adam/Felicia played by Oliver Thornton ♥, the yummiest thing since toasted Starbursts (try them over a campfire...mmmm). Seriously. The show was absolutely fantastic but seeing gorgeous Oliver strutting his stuff up there in a pink sparkly thong, suspenders, heels and not much else was the big, fat, juicy cherry on top of one of the most scrumptious cakes in a long, long time. I actually can't express how utterly fantastic the show was and Oliver, and if I could, I would probably be up there dancing with them. In fact, in my gap year, I was thinking of creating the job title "Official Diva of Advertising" for Priscilla and then I could work with Mr. Thornton.
And to add to my stalker abilities, here is a factfile of my favourite actor in the whole world (off the top of my head, of course):
NAME: Oliver Rhoe Thornton
BORN: Abergavenny, Monmouthshire (next door to herefordshire, where I live!! :D), 10th September 1979
OCCUPATION: Currently starring as Adam/Felicia in Priscilla in London
So go on those websites and see for yourself how utterly stunning Oliver Thornton is. I would put on a picture myself, but:
a) there are so many to choose from I would be all night drooling over them before I chose about 100
b) there are probably lots of copyrights on the pics and I don't want to risk infringement
Honestly I would keep telling you every detail about Oliver but I already sound like a deranged stalker and I am quite tired and have SO MUCH revision to do tomorrow I need a good night's sleep.
Go and see Priscilla. I gave it 100000000000000000000recurring out of 10 and I've seen almost all of the West End musicals. And like I told Becky: It is way, WAY better than The Lion King. Which is amazing, if you've seen it, so you'll know my standards.
Oh, and just in case I didn't mention it:
OLIVER THORNTON IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS AND YOU WOULD BE MAD NOT TO WATCH PRISCILLA AND FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM.
Actually please do be mad - all the more for me!! :D
Night night xxx

Stuck in the Library
So YEAAAH. Me and Becky are in the Library because we are ILLLLL. I had a sicky bug on tuesday and was off and now I really can't be asked to do Games and so am in the Library. With Becky. And a big bar of 'Euroshopper' 44p chocolate. Yummersss.
This week has been a bit of a blur. I was here on Monday, but had a bit of an oddity of a day and felt a bit odd so on Tuesday I was sick and didn't come in. I was ill. I stayed in bed all day and ate soup and ice cream and drank Lucozade (compulsary drink for the invalid) and learnt my Speech & Drama. I now now Juliet's lines in Act 2 Scene 5 of (duh) Romeo and Juliet off by heart. We had a right old laugh because at the beginning, my partner Jemima and I have to say:
Jemima: "Romeo and Juliet"
Charlotte:"Act 2 Scene1"
Jemima: "I'm Jemima and I'm playing the Nurse"
Charlotte: " And I'm Charlotte and I'm playing Juliet"
Except I said, being me, by accident :"I'm Charlotte and I'll be playing Jemima."
Fnar. Yes hahahaha. At least it wasn't the performance. Or else the adjudicator would be all :"Ooh, they actually can't remember who they are playing. And they're playing two of the most famous literary characters in one of the most famous plays EVER. I think DISQUALIFICATION."
Well she would if she was that awful bitch like last year. Which hopefully she is not, if she is I might just swear all the way through my poem. Which would probably get me expelled but I would DEFINITELY enjoy it.
Well toodlepip f'nowssss.

Neopolitan Dreams
you
I don’t think you’re ever
a hundred percent in the room
you’re not in the room
go on, I'll be ok I can
dream the rest away, it's
just a little touch of fate
it'll
be ok.
It sure takes its precious
time but it's got rights and so have
I. I turn my head up to the sky, I
focus one thought at a time I do
not let the little thieves under my
tightly buttoned sleeves. You
couldn't be a long time I
feel like I am walking blind
I have nowhere
I'll have time
there are no legible signs
there are no legible signs
I like the way
that you talk,
I like the way
that you walk
It's hard to recreate
such an individual game
you wait you turn in the queue
you say your sorries and thank you'sI don’t think you’re ever
a hundred percent in the room
you’re not in the room
you're not in the room
deepest, of the dark nights
here lies, the highest of highs
neopolitan dreams
deepest, of the dark nights
here lies, the highest of highs
neopolitan dreams
stretching out to the sea
you wait you turn in the queue,
you say your sorries and thank you's
you wait you turn in the queue,
you say your sorries and thank you's
I don’t think you’re ever
a hundred percent in the room
a hundred percent in the room
you’re not in the room
you're not in the room

Monday, Day of Boredom
Today was disappointing - technically it was my first proper day back at school (not counting Friday) and twas veeeeery boring. For example, in Biology we wrote notes, in French we wrote an essay, in English we wrote MORE notes, in Maths we had cakes (the only good point of the day) and in History, guess what? Yup, even MORE notes.
On the plus side, I got to use my brand new pink twirling spaghetti fork during tea tonight as we had spag bol. And I didn't have any homework (with the exceptions of Maths revision for the Maths Mock GCSE on Thursday and finish the French essay which is due in on Tuesday so I didn't bother with that).
On an even PLUSSER side, it is my birthday a week on Saturday!!!! I am so excited. Am having a sleepover with eight more people and we're all going to try and squish into my conservatory. We only just managed it last time, and there were only five of us!!

Saturday, Day of Snow and Guitar Hero
Today, I stayed at home and played on Guitar Hero on the Wii for a bit. Then I decided to have a mess around on my MacBook Pro (eeeeeeeeeee!!!) for a bit, and ended up on iMovie for a bit. I made a movie about my cat, which I will post later. And of course Facebook, my favourite website (apart from this...) EVER. I am currently talking to one of my friends on chat right now.
Let's do it, and do it... here we come here we go, we gotta ROCK. Party Every day... party every day.
I gotta feeling.... that Tonight's gonna be a good night, that tonight's gonna be a good night, that tonight's gonna be a good good night.
Friday, Day of Free Food in Lessons
Today, I actually went to school, which is a change from the rest of the week (we went back on Tuesday, but because of the snowy conditions most people left then - I was the first to leave, at breaktime)except yesterday, when I went in for the afternoon for the maths GCSE mock... Aaaaaaaaaaargh!!! I hope I did all right... :S
In Latin, which is our first lesson, our teacher wasn't there so we had the batty head of department, who basically let us just go off into Z1and 'learn our latin lists' which we actually did, much to everyone's surprise. She came in halfway through the lesson to tell us that she'd just put the kettle on, and would any of us like a cup of tea, coffee or a hot chocolate? She walked back out with an order for five hot chocolates.
In our History lesson, which we weren't meant to have but did due to our change of timetable, our teacher, who was as unprepared as us, gave is SIX Quality Streets each and we watched a video and then did some colouring in (bearing in mind that our class is between 14 and 15 years of age).
So I had a good day.
