zomg a whole week since i last worte in my diary! :o I've been too busy reading the KH manga and i've suddenly become addicted to myspaz plus tv, homework and going out after school.. oh yeah and being ill.. has meant i haven't been on here as much! o__O I had a cold.. for ages.. i probably still have it.. but i'm too busy feeling slightly sick.. i blame Amz's party! Which was awesome! She suddenly announced on Friday that i was coming so i was like.. fine! Coz Amy is amazing and i like going out for a drink! =D We had so much fun! I wasn't feeling well though.. so i drank and felt worse and blacked out for a couple of seconds halfway through a convo me and amy were having and ended up half out the conservatory door.. me and amy were laughing our asses off! XD It was really amusing.. there were only a few of us, me amz, tanz, tofa and christea but we had fun! We got the dance mat out and sat in the garden and had a rolling competition!

Then at about 1am after i'd got over being ill thought fuck it and carried on drinking anyways (it was my mission according to Amy to keep up with her.. and she drinks fast! o__O plus she kept mixing my drink till i ended up with a pure alcohol layer and a layer of solidified baileys! It was horrible.. but great for getting pissed on!) So yeah.. we went to the park at 1am and Amy span me and tanz on the roundabout and we were trying to not fall off/throw up by yelling I'm on jupiter until Amz said jupiter was cold then we were yelling I'm on mars! XD rofl.. we bailed out in the end coz amy wouldn't stop.. it was hilarious...
We had a good womanly chat and a gossip! ^^ so yeah it was all good! X3

Plus i have an invite to ANOTHER party now! XD I'm becoming such a 6th former.. annoying my teachers.. turning up to lessons wearing stupid things and partying every weekend! yay! *dances* Anyways i have homework and room tidying to do.. so i may log off and come back later to answer my messages! =D
tarrah! xxxx

Bleh it's cold >.< and i have such and urge to go for a walk... it'd be so nice in the morning... quiet and wooo! But Beki and Josh are asleep on the sofa and i have to tidy up the house a bit.. washing up, dishwasher stacking etc. to be done you see! I am amazed i'm not dead right now.. i've had like no sleep because there's no blind in my room yet and i went to sleep as it was starting to get light and woke up every 10 minutes or so till i thought "fuck it" I'll just get up i have stuff to do anyways... so here i am rambling in my diary about it! XD

Beki came over yesterday afternoon with cider and my brother sold me a bottle of cider for £2:50 which he didn't want X3 So we drank the 2 cans i had in the fridge then the whole of Beki's bottle and then i drank half of the other bottle >.< That was not a good idea and i think it must have been slightly dodgy coz i feel like puking my guts up right now... but i'm not going to i'm going to be good and feed the pets and wash up, stack dishwasher and maybe start doing my homework i was meant to do yesterday <_<

But first answering messages...
Tarrah! xxx

*dances* another good day.. beki's made no move to make friends.. so i'm guessing this is it.. XD There should be a tribute wiki or something.. anyways just have to see what happens tomorrow. Nothing happens then i'm going to put it in a box and get on with life.. coz i have alot of work to be doing.. o_O I'm starting to realise just how much effort it's going to take to get where i want to in life! *sigh* growing up too fast.. but mind you i am kinda loving it.. these past couple of days especially i feel so free and chilled.. anyways I'm always open to being mates with Beki again but she has to make the move, i know it sounds harsh but i have my reasons. Reasons that will only be revealed when whatever happens happens. lol thats a mouthful.. and it sounds so mysterious.. *holds up gun bond style* dun dun dun... <_< yeah.. anyways Heroes rawks! I have my new watercolur pencils! X3 and art with Mrs Batton is annoying the hell out of me mind you at least i'm working in her class.. in Mr T's i'm not really.. i don't know what i'm supposed to be doing!! I need photos for my AO1.. maybe it
i'll go into town at lunch to get some batteries for my camera and get the photos developed. I'm going into town anyways after school coz i have a chem prac. till 4:30 and after that i've got an hour to kill.. i'll find someone.. ask amy to meet me or something like that! XD If not libary, tescos.. plenty to do! =D
Anyways thats it for now i have notes to write up for Matt and something to do for my brother! X3

Today has been odd... good but odd! I didn't write anything yesterday i don't think.. i was a bit stressed out and tired and emotionally wrecked! XD I just felt betrayed and fed up and lost, no idea of where i stood with my best friend. Fortunatly that problem has solved itself in the form of Beki not talking to me o__O Now some of you might be going ZOMG!!! but they're like inseperable.. well not any more it seems! XD lol.. okay so it may seem so weird that i'm not really upset about it.. and it's not that i'm hiding it i'm actually not upset. I've spent today with a load of people i wouldn't normally spend my day with and it was AWEZOME!! I have so many good friends that i sometimes didn't take much notice of, me and Amy are getting on great.. she forced me to come into town with her after school and then didn't want me to go home! XD Normally i wouldn't have gone without beki.. coz i always feel like i'm second best to her and that no one would want me there on my own.. but i had just as good a time without her.. it might seem really harsh to be saying this but it's the truth and yeah i know she has an ET and will probably read this and thats part of the reason i'm writing it.

Beki: I have no idea why you're not speaking to me, that's your problem and i'm not going to grovel at your knees to find out. If you want me as a friend thats fine if you don't that's also fine, i think i'll survive! I'm not about to turn this into some kinda war i'm still going to enjoy my life coz i realised a while back that i'm the only person that can make me happy. If this is over Josh i think thats really stupid.. i don't care if you're dating him or in love with him, again thats your choice and i'm over him. As i've said he's dead to me now and that has nothing to do with you and his relationship. And if this is something else i honestly have no idea what it is so i have nothing to feel guilty about. Balls in your court, you have to decide what you want.

Thats it i think! ^__^ so yeah a pretty good day for me! X3 I'm in a happyful mood.. just going to do some homework and i'll be back later.. to do some CGing and writing. Turns out i've grown alot in the last couple of months, I think i'm actually happy with myself, i believe in myself again and i have faith in me! So what should have been bad was actually good.. life is funny like that lol!

ohh yeah.. Amy's also invited me to her Bday piss up and she says i can probs. stay at hers afterwards! ACE! XD

Next in thread: 978472

Completely irrelivant but i can't feel my foot and i need to go to bed! *nods* buut i have lots of news from this weekend that i need to write about before it falls victim of what i am now calling BOA syndrome.. as in i can't be bothered writing about it and so it is left as a half finished word document! XP

Anyways where did i get up to last entry? Thursday.. goodo! =D means i don't have too much to ramble about and i noticed i typoed awesome as AWEZOME which is infact awesome and i shall now completely over use! AWEZOME! =P Anyways Friday was Shammy's party, which was great! Beki came over at about 7 ish and we started drinking t3h rum before we got there and then moved on to spirits and cider! X3 Vena Cava did an awezome set! Few more songs than at mike's party.. we did some made piggy-back headbanging.. ate some guinea pig treats.. (<_< >_>), then it gets hazy so to keep it short.. lost beki made friends with a load of people i knew from other parties and were in my form and talked to sinead again! All of which was fun.. built up y shit mix in my cider can.. i have a habit of getting people to add bits of drink into my can till i have no idea what i'm drinking and then get wasted!
Me and Amy were WASTED so we stuck together.. we had a rofl moment with the seesaw.. it was a 2 year olds one! Me and beki had tried to get on it and somehow i tripped over and ended up lying on Beki's legs then when me and Amy tried we managed to flip it over completely and were left ROFLING on the floor! XD After that i don't remember much of anything.. Nathan added Absynthe to my shit mix after i had a couple of mouthfuls of it straight.. i think i had, vodka, rum, whiskey, absynthe, cider, beer and whatever other spirits were going in it! XD Killer! lol I sat with amy and steevo outside the hanger.. matty got yelled at.. alot of people left.. i ended up paralitic on the floor.. the tent had been put up but i couldn't figure out how to get in.. tent.. sleep..
Then the next day.. woke up with no hangover at about 6 and then went and sat on the camping chairs i'd brought from 8 onwards. Found beki made a vid of the aftermath and got a lift home with my dad! Saturday was ugh.. i had to dismantle a wardrobe and put a chest of draws together.. which i did then i crashed on my sofa for 3 hours.. woke up with a sore neck.. had dinner.. went on pc.. found out Lyon had got him, me and beki tickets to a manga con. on november 29th in chester! X3 fecking YES!!!!! i am majorly excited and i need to figure out a costume as well as ones for ninja day and halloween.. i lOVE dressing up! lol anyways yeah..
Got up early this morning.. put together my new wardrobe and then did homework all day.. boring -___- but had to be done i hadn't done any all week! XD My room is pretty AWEZOME now i have some new furniture in but i need to go through some of my stuff... i have so much crap.. but my room is almost done and it's so big now.. at least it looks alot bigger than it did.. i'll get some photos soon! x3 me and my mum are going on a shopping spree for accessories and stuff which i adore! I love getting new pretty stuff.. i'm such a girl! <_< anyways i should be heading off to bed now so i can cope with school tomorrow although i'm not really tired.. but i do have to read some Antony and Cleo.. so i might do that and read a couple of Neo Articles.
Oh and i have a future.. my aim is architecture in Cambridge! *dances* i'm so glad i have a plan now! =D
Tarrah! Love you all! xxx

Gah i feel exhausted! I mean i feel more tired than i did in the holidays staying up for days and nights in a row and more tired than camp where i got about 3 hours sleep a night and walked 12 miles with a pack a day! :o I don't know what it is.. there are several things it could be.. just general school and stuff tiring me out, sleepwalking alot or not sleeping too well.. the other strange thing is i'm almost constantly hungry.. i mean i must have eaten about twice the amount i normally would today.. which would suggest i'm growing.. which i REALLY doubt.. but you never know i live in hope! XD

In other news i have just completed my Tesco job application form which i hope to give in tomorrow! Fingers crossed i get the job because the money is quite good and i could use some extra cash what with uni fast approaching and plans for a gap year round the world trip. I got Harry Potter special edition top trumps too today! xD Me and mark were playing them in physics and our teacher caught us.. we had no idea what he had been saying but luckily the fake tattoo on my neck saved us! XD He went off on a ramble about a guy in a caffee with a spiderweb tattooed on his face and then started rambling at walker about his baccy tin/pencil case! XD so we got out of the lesson early and i had a free first coz our chem teacher was away! Unfortunately we have a mini-test tomorrow -___- which i should be revising for now.

Yesterday was AWEZOME!! A couple of us from 6th form went to school dressed as pirates, Mr Humphys was threatening to chuck us out of school for the day but everyone else thought it was funny! So he got over-ruled and spent the rest of the day glaring at us! I'll put up a pic of my costume when i can find one! I got told off in maths too by Mrs Bradford but meh! XD it was awesome! We went into town too! Everyone thought it was amazing and we met loads of people and started conversations with them! Plus the look i got when i went into the job center was priceless! XD Ahh i had so much fun! X3 But it was so tiring i got home and fell asleep on the sofa! XD

And for anyone that hasn't seen the latest Heroes eps yet or doesn't watch it.. shame on you!!!!! it is really gooood! :o I love Hiro and Peter! They are my favs with Isaac as a close second! ^____^

waha! I swear at somepoint soon i shall post the BOA review from my point of view!! Promise!!

..anyways.. what to ramble about? My double bed comes tomorrow! X3 i cannot wait!! I want to have a mattress warming party no matter how wrong that sounds! I was talking about it with matt.. our convo has been so random tonight! I like matt.. he's good to talk to he stays up late and is perfectly able to ramble like a grandad on crack! XD Plus i can tease and bully him and he doesn't care! Although our convo tonight has been the most flitty and suggestive ever... i have been sitting here giggling for about 2 hours! X3 that wasn't what i was going to ramble about but meh there you go!

I've had a good weekend.. friday night i was shattered and feeling really down.. things getting to me.. like the fact i don't have a bf and everyone else seems to have on. I know thats not true but it feels like it.. anyways i had a heart to heart to beki *huggles* she let me rant at her and tell her how i feel which i haven't done in ages!! She even made me cry! She's like my sister and our convo made me realise just how much talking to her and us being friends means to me. I dunno what i'd ever do without her, life would be bland! We understand each other perfectly, we know how each other thinks and we don't have to talk to have conversations! We have similar tastes argue like enemies and basically have a great time together! We work together and go to school.. i swear i love her as much as i love my brothers and we couldn't be closer if we were related by blood. *glomps* anyways enough buttering up of beki! =P

So yeah then i went to chester with Beki and Matt and we met Dan and Amy and stuff. It was good i got my nose pierced and didn't spend too much money! =D yay! ^_^ Then babysitting last night, i'm amazed i survived! I was shattered! It was fun though! we played games and i just generally felt like a kid and i drew both chloe and jack pictures which they loved.. chloe has decided she wants to become more punky XD rofl another child converstion to add to my list! So far every kid i've babysat has shortly after i started babysitting them turned down the "alternative" route.. i'm just glad to be doing my bit for the scene and the bands that rock it out! XP Jack made me aww! He said he hoped he still knew me when he was a famous footballer and then he said he probably would coz i'd babysit his kids if he had any (he's 8) bless him! I take that to mean i'm a good babysitter ^_^ which makes me feel happy! lol but i was like.. i don't think i'd be babysitting your kids.. i'd be like 30 by the time he started having kids.. it's more likely my kids would babysit his kids! XD which would be funny! But as i plan to live abroad i don't think thats likely!

Anyways finally got a lie in today, my mum and dad are away at a rugby match so my gran's staying here at the moment. She makes me laugh coz she rambles.. she was giving me an account of her bowel movements at one point i was like o__O thanks gran! XD and my grandad is cool! But my gran is a worrier and my grandad doesn't care.. which is not good as my brothers don't like having to tell gran exactly where they're going and i get fed up of my gran arguing and nagging at everyone. Plus my grandad is diabetic and recently dislocated his shoulder so she's worrying more than ever.

Anyways good day.. got all my homework done so yeah! Can't wait for school tomorrow i'm LOVIN it soooo much!

Tarrah! Love you all! xxx

GOOD DAY!! *nods* My room is pretty much done (i'll get some pictures up when it's completed) so i'm getting new furniture that should be here by the weekend! ^^ Which is awesome but it does mean i have to sort out all my crap that i've been collecting.. i might start tonight as i'm ontop of my homework and have typed up all my notes. Ontop of that the wireless internet was installed which allows me to sit in bed (like i am now) on my laptop (bob) and stay up talking to people (i shall make 12 my limit and then do some logic puzzles and stuff after that.. or as it will be tonight sorting)!!! It's awesome and much more peaceful and enjoyable than being in the study with my arguing brothers and their friends! Some peace at last! *dances* annd i came home to find a parcel on the table for me! ^_^ it was from my Aunty as a congratultions for my exams, she sent me a card, some red spray in wash out hair dye =D, 2 nail varnishes (quick drying and prettyful! ^^) and some liquid eyeliner! Which is great!!! XD So far these exams have payed off pretty well! I feel like it's my birthday or something. Although now i'm back to school time is flying and it's a return to late nights, early mornings and homework but i'm having fun in 6th form as it's freer and less controlled than lower school! X3

bah diary! *grumbles* i feel like a moody old man at the moment.. I'm decorating my room (which i've been doing for 2 months now!) I've finally got to the point where we're putting paint on the walls but it's bloody boring.. you have to masking tape all the skirting boards and then the actual painting.. it's like peh =__= i'm using the ceiling painting roller because i'm short and can't be bothered getting a ladder.. like.. totally too much effort! XD So it's not too bad but i'm covered in white paint and it's killing brain cells i swear! I've got 1 wall painted.. only.. 3 more to go.. i want to get it all done today so i can add the finishing touches and then i have to move back in before next weekend.. or the weekend after.. o_O which again is too much effort.. i blame starting school again.. it's zapped all my energy.. i need coffee.

Now for a ramble about school.. It started on wednesday.. i wasn't too worried about going.. i figured it'd be okay and if it wasn't i'd deal with it! XD Luckily it's been great (if tiring) i'm loving it! Despite the fact i have absolutely no frees and have already had 3 pieces of homework -__- lol! That's what you get when you try to take 5 AS levels. I'm doing Physics, Maths, Chemistry, English Lit and Art (i was taking History but i dropped it after the first lesson!). It's really awesome coz i have some great teachers who are a bit nutty! Which makes life interesting! Plus coz we're in 6th form it's so much less formal, the teachers joke with us and tease us and things.. which is fun.. My physics teacher was taking the piss coz i forgot how to add fractions over the hols! XD And i was annoying Mr Owen by being overly clever! XD SO much fun! Plus i have a couple of friends in all my classes and i've made new friends too! X3

Then there's the added bonus of being able to go out and get a coffee everyday! Me and [Beki in Wonderland] have been taking advantage of that! I'm just LOVING it! Although next week i'm is going to be tough.. as i have to do homework, keep up with my online projects and finish my room *dies thinking about it* ahh well i'll cope! XD I guess i should grab some lunch so i can finish doing my bedroom and move on to art! AO1 sheet for Mr T. and research on another artist for our other teacher. Then Mr Owen's chem project.. i have to extract my physics books from all my crap thats piled in the spare room while i'm decorating.. i desperately need to sort my stuff out.. i have so much junk.. and i now have 5 art folders! X3 i'm well proud.. i have an A1 one, 3 A2 ones and a A3 one! XD It's my mission to get as many art folders from the school as i can.. coz they're not buying them anymore! *evil laugh* i am such a hoarder..

Today's been pretty good so far, had to get up early to have a shower before my opticians appointment -_- bah i hate getting up.. stupid holidays! XD I'm never going to be able to get up in time for the bus when school starts again!
lol Anyways i went into town, ordered a new pair of glasses, picked up my contact lenses! X3 just in time for Bloodstock tomorrow! .:squee!:. Then i went to tesco with my dad and bought the food for the 4 days at BOA talk about carbo-loading XD It's pretty much bread and sugar appart from the apples, ham and cheese i got to make it a "balanced diet!" I've got bread, bagles, brioche, pancakes, frosties and cereal bars! XD So yeah.. we're going to be longing for a decent meal by sunday! I don't know what kinda stuff beki's bringing but as we don't have a stove to cook food much the same thing i think! Plus i got cider and i know beki's bringing some too! X3 so food and drink wise we're set! I still need to sort out clothes.. i'll go do that later! I'll just find some jeans, underwear, a couple of tops and chuck in some baby wipes and sun screen! XD That should do us!
After that i came home and me and my dad watched Pink Floyd the Wall as he'd been promising to watch it with me for AGES!! It was good! A bit trippy and confusing but my dad chipped in with helpful details when they were needed (he was a big Pink Floyd fan) So i really enjoyed it! A 4 star movie! Would be 5 stars but it lost me in places.. mind you the music was kinda making me drift off in places... early mornings are not my thing! lol
Oh and i've been leafing through the robinsons catalogue that arrived this morning i'll have to tackle my mum when i get back about some new jods, chaps and a fleece for work! I also want to get myself a cheap grooming kit, there's one for £5.50 and i'll get a rubber curry comb to add to it. The brushes at work have a mysterious habit of vanishing so having my own would be useful! XD

One message.. not worth answering.. i shall let them pile up a bit.. opposite of what Beki's doing! But meh..


TEA!! No matter what they say tea is one of the most addictive substances known to man. I make myself a cup of tea and i sit down and drink it and then i put it down and 5 minutes later i pick it up and go: "oh it's empty i need to make myself another one.." and that goes on and on until i've had about 10 cups of tea and am wondering why the hell i've drunk more in a day than i normally would in a week. -_- no wonder the brits are known for tea consumption.. they're all ADDICTED!!! and i'm one if them! A moaning, ranting, weather watching, tea-loving BRIT!! and thats a good thing in my books! XD I love moaning and ranting.. it's good for you! As is tea and whisky and cider and brandy (which are all british i think) and IRISH POTATOES! *drools* i always knew there was a reason Ireland reminded me of potatoes!! BECAUSE OF THE DEPRESSION!!! and no i don't actually have anything better to do with my time than rant.. and no i'm not drunk.. it's BLOODSTOCK! on thursday! *hypers* i was talking to beki on the phone.. it's going to be so awesome! X3

I'm not saying too much else or i'll get really hyper.. i'm trying to keep calm until Thursday when i can be stupidly hyper! .:squee:.
I got my photos from camp today (they were being developed) and they're pretty good! I wish i could have taken more.. i used up my film in about a week =/ I also got a postcard from the staff and it made me cry a bit! I miss everyone on camp so much and they said a load of nice thnigs.. i think they must have been slightly drunk when they wrote it though.. the person they talk about doesn't sound like me! Not how i would think of myself anyways:
quote: "you are a beautiful, clever, capable and funny young woman." huh??? beautiful? i think not.. clever.. okay i kinda am.. capable.. *shrugs* funny??? i don't think so.. i definately wasn't one of the camp clowns and i can't remember being jokey around the staff.. appart from the drunk lets go out with no trousers episode.. i did have a fleece on but.. yeah... XD ahh well i send them lots of hugs! X3

There is a trail of washing up that spans the work surface and we're living on instant food ... i'm calling it college practice! XD I think i'm going to head off now too.. don't feel much like sitting around on the pc.. might go draw or write or read or watch Britain's next top model on Living+1 XD catch you all later!

Next in thread: 966594

Time to ramble me thinks! XD First off did anyone in Britain go outside and look at the sky around 1 in the morning? I did.. not randomly but becasue, as those of you who went out and looked up last night will know, there was a meteor storm! It was BRILLIANT!! The sky was clear of clouds and becasue it was a new moon it was really dark and i live in the countryside so there was hardly any ligth pollution! X3 It happens every year in August but because of the new moon it was going to be more clearly visible than it had been for years.. the only reason i know this is i happened to catch it on the news yesterday adn thought that as i'm usually awake around that time i'd go outside and have a look. It was worth it!! I saw a bunch of really pretty "shooting stars" the first one i saw was right above where i was standing and had a tail of green fire! It was so awesome! I made a couple of wishes too.. as is tradition! The only problem was i was on my own lying on my patio in shorts for about an hour at 1 am >3< needless to say it was quite cold and there were slugs everywhere.. next year i want to have a kinda party thing! Where we all go outside at 1am looking for the shooting stars and drinking whatever we have to hand! =P
Anyways i'm going to be online a while as i've decided to finish off all those CG's in my WIP file.. and i'm working on the dragon picture on my house.. i need to get all the base colour filled in at once.. so anyone who wants to chat or who has any tips on drawing horses (i've decided to practice drawing them 1) because i want hand drawn pics for my VHR horses and ranch and 2) becuase i hardly ever draw horses yet i LOVE being around them..) feel free to message me! ^^ I have plenty of time as my mum and brothers have gone away (i didn't go becasue it clashes with BOA) and my dad is out.. he picked up a bug in Egypt last week and so he's off work and has gone to see the Doctor. There are up sides to my family being away.. becuase my dad's been to switzerland, canada, russia and egypt in the last month with work i've now got lots of chocolate and strange hats and stuff. He got me a russian com. hat from russia, a fezz (sp?) from egypt, 5 40g bars of finest swiss chocolate, a big packet of oreos, a big bar of JD chocolate *drools* i LOVE JD my mum has said she'll get me some.. *dances* and a bunch of egyptian papyrus that he saw being made! Beki also got me some scrumpy from when she was away! It's really nice.. like rum cider.. rum and cider.. yum.. two of my favorite drinks!
Anyways enough of that for now.. i'm back to CGing..
Love you all! xxx

Hellloooo! I feel a great sense of achievement today! X3 lol! I got up at about 12:15 (not too bad concidering how late up i was last night.. after i got off here i was writing in my room!) Anyways.. yes.. i've done several chores that i needed to do today! X3 First off i cleared out the stuff my mum put back into my room (i'm still decorating) and put it back in the spare room, there's now nothing left in my room except my bed, empty bookshelf and wardrobe and i'm taking the bed appart tomorrow as it's been sold to one of my brother's friends! That means i can prep the room and paint it when i get back from Bloodstock which will mean it should be done 2 weeks today and i can start moving furniture back in and stuff! X3
Then i cleaned out the rabbit and guinea pig and because it was a nice day and i felt like it i washed my flip-flops (the ones i took on camp) and my mucker boots and polished my riding and walking boots. When i was done with that my mum asked me to cook dinner because she and my brothers are going on holiday tomorrow and she needed to pack (we always do things last minute) so i made spaghetti bolegnase from scratch (i was pretty proud of myself) although i did have to swap pans coz i burnt some of the veg <_< but now i know i need to keep stirring it and not go off to watch TV! XD It tasted pretty damn good too! and it meant i had no after dinner chores!! so yeah... i feel i've used my day well!
The plans for the rest of the week are:
Monday: free day
Tuesday: Walk to town to pick up photos
Wednesday: Opticians, meet Beki, pack for bloodstock (i might start tomorrow actually)
Thurs: get up early and leave for BOA
Fri & Sat: BOA
Sunday: home and sleep!
Monday: recovering (decorating)
tues: LARP (??)
wed: free day (decorating)
thurs: RESULTS!!! o_O =/
XD lol so yeah! busy week and a bit! and to think we're about 3 weeks into the hols now.. thats half way and it's gone so quick.. well i have been doing alot.. but even so.. i can't believe it's almost time to go to BOA! X3 i'm so excited!!! *dies*

Next in thread: 966127

It's been a while since i wrote in here.. well 2 or 3 days.. and not much has happened to be honest.. Beki came over.. we were meant to be practicing for bloodstock instead i speant a load of money in mold and then we came home and watched a movie, ate ice-cream and drank scrumpy.. we decided that we were doing our "break-up binges" and that marks the end of that! XD lol it was alot of fun, it's been ages since we speant time together just chilling and being lazy! So i had an awesome time! X3 We got two tubs of Ben and Jerry's as well, 2 new flavours: half baked (the BEST ice-cream ever made) and Bohemian Rasberry becuase they were on 2 for £5.
In town i dropped off my cameras to be developed (yay for camp photos) but i have to pick them up on tuesday and then i have an eye-test wednesday and bloodstock thursday! :o busy week! Plus i have to clear my room out completely before i go so i can decorate when i get back. I also got some make-up and i can't remember what else >.< lol
hmm appart from that i've got a list of things to do: diet, draw VHR art, requests on DA, walk more, decorate room etc. etc. and my ex is annoying me.. or was until i won the arguement and he decided it wasn't worth carrying on if he valued his face! As Beki said i had 2 things going for me which meant he couldn't win: 1) I'm a woman 2) I'm Alex! XD ROFLMAO!! *glomps beki*
Thats all except it's 2am and i'm not tired and have an urge to draw and write... BEKIIII you have influenced me! :o

Okay here's a rundown of the last 2 and a bit weeks.. i'll split it up into little bits under headlings but it'll still be a LOOOONG ramble so... yeah.. don't feel you have to read it!
1)Camp
ZOMG!! so much to say! It was so amazing!! Lets start at the start though.. i left home at about 9 to get the train to newport and catch a train from there to Swansea on which (hopefully) i would meet the rest of the people going on our FSC camp. I was kinda nervous about the train thing.. i was pretty certain i'd get lost and i have a slight phobia of trains anyway =/ but meh i got on with it and everything was fine! I met up with all the other campers and spent the whole 2 hours of the journey to Swansea talking to graham, ian, jaco and Lawrence who i met last camp! X3 It was great catching up and seeing them again. Jaco had changed ALOT! He was taller and gone for an emo style which inspired alot of friendly teasing over the 2 weeks. Graham was a drinker now! and ian and lawrence were mostly the same lawrence drank now too.. so yeah you can imagine what the 2 weeks were like.. we went through 3 bottles of vodka some JD and alot of cider and beer! XD (jaco got away with buying alcohol!).
From Swansea we had a 2 hour bus ride to our campsite and i talked to Alister and Chris on the bus, which was cool! New friends already! The camp was a concensus camp which was a bit odd and i admit at first i thought it would be really crap but it wasn't! It took a while to get into the whole idea that everyone had to agree on the decisions but once we got going we were quite good at it! It worked and we had fun plus we could say we were the trailblazers for concensus camps which is cool! We stayed at an "alternative community" for the first 3 days and most of the staff had connections there becuase most of them lived on similar communities! It was such a Hippy camp! So yeah.. after that first 3 days we went walking along the pembrokeshire coastal path which was so beautiful (hopefully i'll get camp pics up on here soon!). I walked in the fast slow and medium groups so i got to know everyone quite early on! Which was cool!
The fast group did a 30Km hike and got up at 3:30am to do it and ended up in a pub drinking cider by 2pm! XD Which was so awesome! Then we got back ate and took part in the night game (more cider afterwards) and were VERY tired the next day! We had a big party on the last day too and me and tasha got a bit tipsy! XD It was so funny i ended up sitting at 4am around the campfire wearing nothing but a fleece and my underwear with two guys half asleep in my lap! I got an hours sleep after that and then we had to pack up to go! Thats just the major bits as i'm trying to keep this short and i don't really have enough words to describe the whole 2 weeks but i learnt alot had an amazing time and cried as i waved goodbye to everyone going back on the london train! ;_; I've never felt so upset about leaving camp before.. i mean seriously! I miss camp more than i've ever missed home! But then this camp was special, it was my last camp as a kid with Ian and Graham (they become staff now) and it was a different camp, very diverse that taught me alot about myself and the way i do things. So many people touched my heart and i learnt so much! About the world and about living with people and challenging things. It was very spiritual and i really needed that, the whole close family thing and to have to be confdent and sure of myself becuase it's helped me get over all the shit thats been holding me back! I now feel very happy and confident in myself and i actually feel that i'm someone worth knowing! X3 *dances*
Camp Quote: Camp is our 2 weeks of sanity that helps us deal with our insane lives. I totally agree. Sanity largely restored and a new-found faith in myself i'm out to do the best i can! World look out!
Hehe i'm slightly jet-lagged coz camp ran on Hippy time! XD (an hour faster than normal time!)
2)Eisteddfod
Yup! seeming as it's on our doorstep we went to the eisteddfod today! It was really good! I spoke a bit of welsh, had a look at all the stalls and played some minin-golf.. it was so surreal though being surrounded by people speaking another language while still in britain! I got a new sketch pad with proper good quality paper that i'm planning to use for some portraits and some pictures! ot much to say appart from that really on the eisteddfod!
General goings on
What a bad year for Britain hay? Ever since Gordon Brown became PM the world seems out to test him! Terrorist attacks, flooding, fires and foot and mouth.. seriously i've been watching the news since i got back coz i haven't heard anything in the 2 weeks i was away and i find it good to know whats going on in the country and all the stuff that's going on *shakes head* The people on the train to london from camp got stuck at Newport becuase of the fire and didn't get home until late >.<
My brothers are fine but both are going for a more emo sort of look, skinny jeans and all that. Mark has had his long lovely curly hair cut off.. it looks kinda odd at the mo but it'll look better when it's grown in a bit. They went shopping yesterday which has now made me want to go shopping i'm going to look on Iansnow to see about getting a hippy hat for winter! X3 lol
What else? Mark got very drunk in town coz he thought brandy was like shandy -_- silly child and it's put him off alcohol for a bit. Which i guess is good! he's also got a crush on this girl Della which is so KAWAII! =3 But on the down side his best friend Tom's mum's in hospital again and she's seriously ill. Apparently the rumour is it's cancer.. i like tom he's a sweet boy and i'm really worried about him. I hope his mum gets better =/
That pretty much sums up the general stuff.. see what i mean about the camp being sanity and normal life being insanity? It's so true.. i want to go back! At least at camp i only had to worry about surviving day to day, life here is so much more complicated.

Love you all xxx
