hokai ramble time!! I have my tea and i'm meant to be doing homework so cheh!
Beki got through to the jap. exchange interviews too! yay! It would be mega awesome if we both got onto the trip but as there are only 3 places for the whole county i'm not sure it'll happen! still i can hope!!
In other news i'm fed up of the headache that i've been having today.. sometimes it's a short sharp pain like i'm being punched in the head in a small area above my eye, sometimes it's at the back of my head and sometimes it's just a crusher headache.. ibuprofen worked for about a half hour >.< 'm going to get sudefed (sp?) in a min before this drives me crazy!!
Oh and i woke up to find i had been sleeping with my eyes wide open this morning! weird huh??
ZOMGZORZ!!! I got through to the interview stage of the Japanese exchange!! .:squee:. if i pass this i'm going to Japan next year!! Interview is on Tuesday.. wish me well! X3 I'm mega excited!! Nothing much else to report.. usual at school, we seem to be having engineering meetings every day at the moment.. which means i get hardly any lunch break.. buuut i did have a free last coz my english teacher had to go home last minute!! ^__^ that was fun! So yeah i'm off to pretend i'm doing homework and simtard for an hour or so!! =D
tarrah! xxx
Bleh boring day! Not much to talk about really... buuut i did get on to the mainstreet poll for the vampire photo competition!! lol Highlight of my day!! I got some homework to do, but yeah.. can't wait for the x-mas hols!!!
Ahhh school tomorrow.. i cba! XD lol but i fell asleep on the sofa for an hour and that helped.. i'm not hungover just tired and my bodyclock is majorly fucked up!! lol but Tanz's party was awesome! Apart from Beki being ill >.< but she was okay in the morning and she work up at about 2am so we did have some rather random moments! XD I got a vid too that i need to stick up on Youtube of me and Tanz getting the selotape off Mike! XD lolz it has lost of shots of Amy's breasts in it coz she was filming and she kept getting bored! XD
Anyways it was fun and worth going! Me and Amz did the whole psycho-analysi
There was also a late night trip to the spar and just general drunken hilarity! I'm sure i shouldn't have been as out of it as i was.. o_o but oh well! Although i am thinking of going T-total for a while or limiting myself to a couple of beers/ciders a week and an occasional shot. Coz in all honestly i drink waaay too much.. as some people might know.. and i need to stop getting pissed and ending up smoking with Amy coz it's never as good an idea as it is at the time and i really do hate myself for it the morning after. Anyways i'm on a health kick now! And i'm broke coz i spent like £70 on christmas presents yesterday!
Chester was busy as hell.. >.< i hate it when it's like that but me and Beki took it easy and just meandered along we knew where we wanted to go and what we wanted to do and got everything done in 2 hours. Buut i lost my 16 - 18 bus card in mold >.< which is craaaaap... coz it costs a fiver for a new one.. and the bus from my house to mold costs £1.25 without it and i'm arsed paying that much. Hopefully it'll turn up! Plus i want a rail card so i can trek to manchester and stuff!! I've spent loads of time on trains this year!! XD
Anywho i'm going to shut up rambling and find out when dinner is coz i am HUNGRY!!!!! >.< Then an early night! after top gear of course, bed and my new book!! yayz! Oh and i got sims 2! Which i've wanted for ages! Haven't had much time to play it recently though. =(

Time for a ramble methinks.. may be cut short as i'm going to chester soon!!
Anyways I went to London on Thursday with some people from my school as part of my AS art course. It was coool! ^_^ The train journey was pretty boring though on the way down i drew, slept a bit and played top trumps with Amz who beat my ass at it! >3< It was most annoying coz i'm quite competative.. XD. Anyways when we got there we headed onto the tube and went to the National Portrait gallery, it was quite interesting even though we didn't see much coz we had to do at least one study. =___= My study was pretty crap tbh, Beki's was good though! Then we spent the last half hour messing around on the touch screen pc's and doing some other studies. After that we got our tickets for the Pop Art exhibition and spent half an hour in there doing a Peter Blake study. After that we decided it was time for a tea break and went down to the cafe! I laughed so much! First as we were going to the cafe Beki caught a tray of coins in the gift shop with her bag and sent them everywhere! Then we had to pick them all up again looking really shifty!
When we got to the cafe me and Beki ordered a pot of tea each and each got a tea pot with enough tea for about 5 cups and we only had 10 mintues to drink it all. So me and Beki were spead drinking mugs of tea while Amz was sneakily stealing condements.
Beki: "Amy where's all the sugar gone?"
Amy: "No where."
Beki: "When i left the bowl was almost full now it's nearly empty."
Amy: *looks shifty* ...
Alex: "You've been stealing it haven't you??"
Amy: *giggles*
And she had been as well.. the side pocket of her bag was full of sugar cubes! And she had a salt and pepper shaker.. i have no idea why though o_O she's crazy! Brilliant but crazy!
Then i was acting like Beki and Amy's mother, our table was a tip and i was complaining about how we couldn't take Amy anywhere and Beki said something that made Amy explode and proved the point very well! She spat tea all over the floor and couldn't stop laughing! It was hilarious then she just dumped some paper towels ontop of it and carried on drinking her tea. Which was in a milk jug as me and beki were using both tea cups! XD Ahh i laughed so much. Then we went to meet up with our group again and on the way out of the gift shop beki got attached to an old man! XD It was funny!
After that we went to spend half an hour in trafalga square and sir set us the challenge of catching a pigeon which meant watching Beki and Dan try and sneak up on them with their cameras and "capture" a photo! We climbed up onto the lions too and the found out that you could slide down the back and go flying! X3 Beki got a really cool picture of her doing that!
From Trafalga square we went to the Tate Modern and spent 15 minutes admiring the "crack" which started a load of jokes! XD Then we went to the gift shop and went to look round the gallery. We wanted to find th giant slides but ended up in the top floor restaurant! XD It was so amusing, everyone was poshly sitting around and me, Beki and Amz were looking lost and bewildered! After that we got stuck on the 5th floor. We each did a quick study to please the teaachers and then spent the rest of our time playing an awesome art game that Beki won twice!! >.< lol i did win one though!
After that we had to head back to the train station and we had an hour there before our train arrived which meant getting food and just generally misbehaving. We continued our streak of knocking things over in paperchase and Beki picked up a model hand with the words: "This is great, you cna grope people without them knowing!" I laughed at that especially as there was a student teacher behind her at the time! The teacher found it funny too and tutted at her! XD
Then we had a glitter fight with one of the tester pots in the boots shop! It was amazing we were all sparkly and then we turned on Sam and covered him in it too! Which was just hilarious!
Finally we got on our train home, another 2 and a half hour journey and by that point me and beki were so hyper we couldn't sleep so we were listening to music and drawing and chatting and just generally being loud!! ahh it was a good day! X3
Yesterday was pretty average and i was sooo tired i was like a zombie! XD But cheh good week so far and i got chester and Tanz's party tonight!! X3 fun fun fun!!! =D
ANNND x-mas soon! I'm really excited about it this year!!
Anyways tarrah xxx
okkkay so i'm procrastinatin
LOLZ to Atay's diary entry!!
and No cash value is a diary WHORE.. damn you spamming up my new diaries box with your hilarious crap..
right i am going to do that physics question now...
26 messages??? seriously... =______= BAAAH I have physics to do so i shall deal with them in 15..
.. still pretty absent... but LOLZ... yeah.. that is all..
BOOOOORED.. should go to bed but i slept in late this morning and i'm so untired... man i feel my diary needs updating.. but bleh.. cba.. tbh! XD I shall start being better about being online soon.. maybe monday.. aye monday sounds like a good time to stop being lazy and start making time for ET..
See you monday.. i shall answer messages then..
Bleeeeh.. so much work i'm hardly online any more ;__; so yeah.. sorry that i'm not replying to messages and stuff.. i can't see that canging anytime soon i have LOADS of work to do for school and a social life to balance, plus gym and i need a job but bleh... i cba so i might just budget.. or see if i can start doing commisions.. or maybe finish writing something i can get published.. dunno...
I PHAIL!! rofl
yes.. i do.. i was meant to be doing useful school work this morning.. what did i do instead? I spent 2 hours on KH! XD >.< lol!! Now i shall have to stay up late working every night till we get back to school..
Annnd! Halloween tonight! x3 should be fun! I'm doing the stereotypical vampire thing! Coz it's an easy costume and i get to glue some fangs to my teeth! yaya! <3
thats is all gotta go pick up people in 15 and i need to put in my contacts and do the ake-up thing!
gah.. brother (mark) has a friend over, he's pretty nice but boys being boys him and mark spend most of the time fighting and insulting each other.. which can be annoying when i'm in charge and he has chores to do.. but he's no where near as bad as felix sooo.. s'all good! Plus i can now retire to my room and net when they annoy me too much.. although i wanted to play KH for an hour before i have to walk into town.. guess it'll have to wait until later!
I'm going to get my hair cut.. dunno what im doing with it it's pretty short at the moment.. i might get some layers added in and make the back really short.. something like that.. or i might just let emma do whatever she wants she's pretty good at things like that! I just want a change.. then this afternoon i think i'll re-dye it and start on my art coursework.. luckily i don't have much other homework cept maths revision and to write up notes. I'm going to do mrs batton's coursework first as she's given us a check list and i should be able to go through that fairly quickly..
Plus there's NaNoWriMo and i'm determined to succeed which means a 2000 word count every day.. =/ i'll find the time.. i have 2 ideas.. one is a dark story about a girl who was captured and tortured until she lost her memory and is then found. It fallows 2 intertwining plot lines which is what happens to her in the present and her slow remembering of what happened in the past.
The other i was thinking of was a terry pratchett type spoof.. i think i'm going to write both of them but use the first one for NaNo as it's got the more developed plot of the two. The second one is going to be about a witch.. modelled on myself.. so a know-it all, loud-mouth, happy go lucky nutter!! =D
Anywho.. half an hour till i have to leave! I should be back online later..

Tarrah! xxxx
parents.. =__= seriously.. got in from babysitting last night got addicted to KH so i ended up in bed at 3am expecting a lie in... 9 o clock my mum comes on "Just checking you're here!!" ..Thank you.. she could have checked without yelling at me! Then she had to have a half hour long convo with me about how much she likes my room and how pretty it is and how it's good that it's finished finally... blah blah blah.. and finally she left.. but WTF?? I don't get my mum... she's odd sometimes.. i love her lots but seriously.. i'm going to wake her up and start talking about oranges one day see how she likes it!
Anyways i actually got up properly at 2pm! Then i was just pottering about doing art, playing KH and chatting on msn.. pretty relaxed day! First one in ages and i did all my homework yesterday and friday which was good! Just gotta finish my mechanics homework now.. then i'm home fee which is good coz next week is going to be busy! :o i have to move most of my stuff back into my room and pack for caving (i leave on sat at about 6am :o but it should be fun and i'll have time to sleep on the train) and there's a concert on friday ruth says i HAVE to go to.. so i am but i have to have all my stuff sorted for caving.. shouldn't be too hard.. old clothes... first aid kit.. torch.. anywho thats all for today!
oh yeah..
I think i was a magpie in a past life! lol.. seriously i LOVE shiny and sparkly things and today in ikea i got stressed out with my mum so i sqwarked at her and flapped my arms around... o___O rofl.. it's so true! XD If everyone has animal charactaristic
Anywho... the point of this ramble was to update everyone on life at the moment... coz i haven't been spending much time writing in my diary or answering messages at the moment.. I've been busy with school work and trying to keep up to date.. plus art coursework due in on monday and what i've got to hand in is kinda pathetic.. we do get it back to work on but i'd kinda like to get as much done as poss. this weekend.
I GOT MY KH GAMES!! They came in the post on Thursday.. thank goodness for the end of the postal strikes!! I would have gone crazy having to wait any longr! Haven't had much time to play them though! My brothers keep asking me for a go and i'm like NO!! get away!! my new games!! GRRR! lol <_< I'm going to take them with me babysitting coz the kids i'm sitting have a PS2 so i'ma gunna steal the mem. card and game for a couple of hours! X3 yay! I need to play on the PS2 more.. i'm going to get our family one after x-mas if my bros get the X-box 360 they want!
I also got a letter in the post on Thursday saying a poem i entered in an online contest has made the semi-finals and is being published (with my permission) and stands a chance of winning me a couple of hundred pounds! I don't think i'll win but it's still exciting.. and i can't believe the judges likes what i submitted.. i mean i know people say i have a talent for poetry but i've never really thought i was good enough to win anything... especially as the other entrants are all in their 20s and 30s! *squee* !!! I think i might enter more comps. i mean if i can get money out of something i LOVE doing then why not?
Didn't get the tesco job =( but i'm filling out an application for Argos for x-mas work and i'll get an app. form for Smiths if they're taking on people which rach says they might be!
Last night was good hung around at the bus stop with Josh, Mark, Wilson and Gemma.. we had so much fun! XD lol and we saw Beki and ruth! All of us were eating chips! yum!
Today.. well i had to get up at 8 to go to ikea so we could get some furniture and get home before my mum had to go get her hair cut. I was SHATTERED!! lol because i was up till 1:30am talking to Ieuan on msn and then i was reading some of this poetry book i was leant off my english lit teacher.. and i had one of those.. have i gone to sleep at all moments at about 4am.. so i got up had coffee went to ikea!
My mum was stressing out becuase she wants all my stuff back in my room and she stressed me out and kept asking me what i wanted and stuff and coz i was tired i lost it with her! I just screamed and flapped for a bit in the middle of Ikea.. rofl must have been so funny to watch! Then my mum felt bad for me.. so she let me have a really cool light tree! Oh yeah and my room is almost done! about 3 months after i began.. but hay! I have a desk now which i'm currently sitting at! Nice big double bed, bookshelf, chest of draws and wardrobe (not all from Ikea) and i got a cube to go next to my bed to dump magazines and stuff in! And a cool light thats next to my desk! So i'm happy.. especially as we only have to put up a couple of shelves and i can get all my stuff back in my room! I'm going to sort everything out and go to a big bootsale at somepoint.. hopefully make a bit of cash! Which is always useful! Plus caving in a week! Can't wait!! Get to see all the camping gang again and get good and muddy and have camp fires and just generally forget that there are expectations of me.. gah.. A Level stress aready! *rolls eyes* i'm too stubborn to drop a subject though!! I WILL SURVIVE!!!!!!!
Anywho i'm starving.. dinners not till 6 ;_; i had lunch at 12.. and nothing since.. lol but my mum got me some daim's from Ikea.. coz i love them! Plus she disappeared off while i was sorting some bits in my room and reappears with a proper posh art portfolio!! She used her wages to buy it for me coz she said she was fed up of me carting aorund tatty plastic art folders with broken handles! It's so awesome! looks really professional too and it should last me a while.. must have been expensive though o___O Anywho i am a very happy child at the moment! ^_^ I think i just need to get organised (which i will do over half term) stop fannying about and start using a baseball bat to make my way through life! I'm going to do things my way and succeed or some one will be feeling the wrath of my large metaphorical baseball bat! so yeah... *dances* rofl.. thats probably been a very long and rambly rant so.. <_< i shall say tarrah to you all! Babysitting yeah! KH gaming sesh! even better!
Love you all! xxx
The strangest thing just happened.. o___O
I was sitting in my room on my laptop minding my own business when the fire alarm went off, it lasted for about 30 seconds and then stopped so i figured someone had burnt something in the kitchen and ignored it. The it happened again and it went off for longer.. so i thought i'd get up and go check it out.. walked along the landing and smelt the faint whiff of smoke then the alarm stopped again. So i stood and looked at it a while but it did nothing.. so i went downstairs and my mum asked me if i'd heard the alarm, i told her i had so we went and checked every room for any sign or smell of smoke.. as you do! We couldn't find anything.. that may not seem weird to you.. you may just shake your head and go "so your fire alarm battery needs changing" but i was up in my room, my mum was in the front room watching TV, the first time it went off only me and my mum heard it, the second time everyone except my brother mark heard it. The strangest thing is i smelt smoke on the landing upstairs and my mum smelt smoke in the dining room downstairs. Thats opposite ends of the house and different floors! It was only a faint smell and it disappeared after that... Then i went back to my room and the minute i stepped in the door the alarm went off again and i went back to yell at it.. it stopped beeping the minute i told it to "shut up!" Which was odd.. anyways we decided it was just the battery needing changing as there was no sign of a fire or anything around.. but it was still freaky... the smoke bit most of all.. o___O
