Being Kinda Sociable for Once

Wow so I have been away from this blog for ages! For once I have actually been really busy; with school, attempting to write my personal statement, open days, driving lessons, trying to get a job (because my parents will not shut up about it). 

So anyway I thought I would tell you about a really fun night I had the other night. I actually went to two party's in one night. I know right, me? The girl who spends most Saturday nights watching films and marathoning TV shows? Yes, well anyway. This girl who I am friends with just turned 18, so she was having a party. It was a party in a hall which isn't really my kind of thing. I just always find them kind of awkward. Fortunately my friend does too, so we spent most of the time sitting around drinking and talking. So we stayed there for an hour, and then we were a bit bored so we were going to go back to my friends house and watch a film (being the extremely sociable people that we are ;)). But then my friend remembered that she had been invited to a house party as well, so we decided to stop by. It was pretty fun, although we had to leave quite early because one of my other friend's was being picked up at 11.30, and we had to drop her off. So then we went back to my friends house and watched Big Bang Theory (which, in my opinion, becomes a lot funnier at midnight) and ate Pizza.   

So that was pretty random, but I just felt like I wanted to write something so that this little blog doesn't feel too neglected :)

Unorganisedness

So I took my driving theory test yesterday. I passed (yay!), but it was still a rather stressful experience. Not because of the actual test, which is reasonably straightforward as long as you have revised, but because of my unorganisedness (I am aware that that isn't a word, but it is really the best way to describe is so lets just pretend that it is).

On the morning of the test I was just about to get in the car when my mum asked "do you need your provisional licence". Until this moment I had completely forgotten the part of the email saying that I needed both the photo-card and paper part of my licence. So I ran back inside and found the photo-card easily enough. But I couldn't find the paper part anywhere. I was of course panicking and frantically emptying drawers onto my bedroom floor. My mum then suggested that I take my passport instead, which I couldn't find either.

Eventually I found my passport and we set off. I was still feeling apprehensive as it had specifically said on the email that you would need both parts.Luckily about 10 minutes into the journey my dad rang to say that he had found the paper part of my licence in his drawer. So he then had to try to make to the test centre in time. Fortunately he did, and I was able to sit the test.

P.s I start school tomorrow and I think that I only have one pen that works, so the unorganisedness continues, and I evidently didn't learn from my mistake yesterday! ;)

No, I haven't abandoned this blog completely

Wow. Okay so it has been over two months since I last posted. Sorry guys. I am still alive, I haven't abandoned this blog and as usual I have some excuses for you. You see my internet was broken for ages. And then I went to Africa. And then I came back and my internet is fixed (yay!), but my laptop is so broken and annoying so I have been using my brother's. I don't really want to blog on there because he doesn't know about this blog.

So anyway what has happened since I posted last? School finished. I turned 17. I got a car! I went on my trip to Africa (and it was amazing!). I got my AS results (two A's and two B's). And I think that is about it.

Superglue and Duct Tape

I have to say that these are two of my favourite things right now. And I am going to say that it is because I am practicing for when I am a broke student, rather than the more likely reason that I can't be bothered to go out and buy a new pair of shoes. (Just to clarify I fixed my shoes using superglue, not duct tape as that would  probably not look great.)

The more important thing that I needed to fix was not a pair of shoes, but my laptop. My laptop is currently rather broken. The fan doesn't work unless you shake it, and then it makes an incredibly annoying noise. The screen is also now only half attached to the keyboard. So of course that is where the duct tape comes in.




I am actually rather proud of my DIY Duct Tape solution. Although, the screen can't bend and is stuck in a slightly awkward position. Hmm let's hope I get a new one soon.

No More Exams!

I had my last exam yesterday! Exams are finally over! It feels so weird to not have any revision to do and to be able to just do nothing. Well for a few days at least, and then it's back to school for me.

I was going to go Thorpe park to celebrate with my friends, but we decided to go in summer instead because then my friend will be able to drive on the motorway, so she can drive us there instead of having to get the train. So now I am literally going to be nothing these few days off.

Well yesterday I went to play crazy-golf, which was fun, because I haven't been since I was about 10. And we went to McDonald's and I got a happy meal, because you know I am really 5 years old. I even got one of the toys, it was so exciting! ;)

Oh I just remembered they are filming a movie where I live! It has Matt Damon and George Clooney and some other celebrities in it, so I might go and wander round town tomorrow in the hope of seeing some celebrities!

In other news, my provisional licence came today! I am so excited to be able to start learning to drive in less than a month.

Wonderful People

I lost my ipod touch last week, I think that it fell out of my bag as I got out of my friend's car. But luckily someone picked it up, and he sent a message to my friend to say that he had found it. At this point I thought I had left it in my friend's car, so I just about to call her when I got a text from my friend who had recieved the message.

So now Thanks to this wonderful person I have my beloved ipod back.

Exam Season

So it's that time of year again. The time where we have to abandon our social lives (not that I have much of one anyway), lock ourselves in our bedrooms and try to frantically cram in as much revision as we can without too much procrastnation.

My life right now pretty much consists of revision , procrastination, exams... and a little bit more procrastination. My first two exams were on Tuesday, and I think that they went OK. Well hopefully anyway. Luckily I didn't have any other exams this week, so I have had the rest of the week to revise for next week, which is when the majority of my exams are.

Good Luck in your Exams everyone
