October, October


The weather is really warm again today! But the funny thing is forecasters have been predicting snow for the end of October in certain parts of the UK. Hmm... WHAT IS GOING ON? with the weather these days :/  They also say it's going to be worse than last year - and I can say that won't be so good especially having to get the buses - they will be like half an hour up to an hour late, great! And, it takes about an hour to get to my sixth form to start with. I believe THE BIG FREEZE again!


A positive I was looking forward to October was hopefully being able to have access to Pottermore. I missed the early registration and have been waiting for this month to come round so the other day I went on the website and find out that it won't be happening until the end of October beginning of November. Bummer! I'm dying to know what it's all about, if anyone has had early access - please comment below and tell me some of the secrets :)


I love when Autumn comes around - mainly due to the colours of the leaves. When you see the leaves changing to reds and oranges, blowing off and the crunching beneath your feet. I love it! I've been listening loads to Anastacia's 2004 album and Dido's - Life for Rent album. I'm such big fans and recently decided to rip my CD's and put them on my iPod. They are on constant replay. I can't wait for these to come back in the limelight. Anastacia has another album going to be released in 2012 (I think) but I'm not sure about Dido. Another point on music - I'm really looking forward to Coldplay, Snow Patrol and Florence and The Machine's new albums to be released! Anyone else a fan of these?

Wooahh!

I take back what I said about the colder weather starting! The sun has been out well and truly these last few days and apparently we're having a 'heatwave' ooo! This is going to sound quite bad but I wish it wasn't so damn warm! I was just starting to get into the hang of this cold weather, even buying my coat for the winter. I think the question on everyone's lips is why the lovely weather comes now, at the end of October when it should have been here in August? You can't win with British weather!


Oh, and I can't believe I forgot to tell you all my good news. Well I think it's good anyway, I was really pleased! Remember when I told you my GCSE results? well I've had three remarks since then as my grades were obviously really close to the next one up and one of these remarks was for my History. I got an A in my history, which is obviously good but with it being my favourite subject and wanting to do it at degree level, I really really wanted to get my target of an A*. And guess what.... my history remark was successful and I've now got my A* which I'm so chuffed about :D

Day 15 of 15 -

Day 15 - In this past month what have I learnt...

  • That I need to start revising now for my exams in May and June or I am going to fail!

  • That the sunshine really makes you feel a lot better. The warm weather and the bright sun on your back makes the days go quicker and doesn't make school as depressing as you can sit outside at break time and lunch time. Getting out of bed in the morning with the sun beaming through my blinds makes the impossible job of trying to wake myself up when the alarm goes off a lot easier.
  • That there are always going to be those people out there in life that ain't going to like you whatever you say or do!

      First Time For Everything!

      Hope everyone had a great weekend and that you've been able to get through today. Agh Monday - the first day of the week where you have to get up early and the first day of school for the rest of the week. This morning when I woke up, I instantly thought 'I can't be bothered today and with the rest of the week!' But I got through it and I've had a few laughs throughout the day! Including a funny incident when a girl fell off her chair - it might sound mean to laugh but it really was funny.


      On saturday, my mam's friend came to our house for the last time for a while with her baby. It was great to see them again because we normally only see them every two/three years because she lives down in Devon and we live in the North-East. Anyway back to the point of the post: my mam's friend was saying that we should go to hers again in August and that maybe we should go camping in Cornwall. My mam's friend and her partner are really 'outdoorsy' people and she loves camping!

      (Cornwall)

      When I think of camping I think of mud, rain and more mud but I think there are a lot of misconceptions out there about it even though there are some really nice sites. Hope we're near the beach!

      My mam said that it would be a good laugh if we did go camping in August with them, her baby and her two dogs. So that's the plan! My mam has always claimed that she would like to go camping but would probably moan to much if the weather is rubbish (which i will probably join her in doing!) but because her friend is going it would be really funny which I'm sure it will! I'm looking forward too it as I've never done it before and you should always try something new. I'm sure my dog will love it too :)


      This is me trying something new - I hope the weather is good and even if it is, my wellies are definitely coming with me! Have you been camping before? Was it good fun?

      Hello Sun!


      Hiya. Hope everyone has had a great saturday, I went shopping with my mam and ended up with some really nice purple pumps and a scarf from Dorothy Perkins. I know winter is nearly over but I'm sure a scarf will come in handy and it's really nice too! Have you been up to much?

      It was great because the sun was actually out and it wasn't chilly like ususal. Ah, I can't wait for spring to start properly because I love when all the flowers come back out and things look pretty. I'm really looking forward to summer too - finally some warm weather will be on the cards!

      Well, I just wanted to have a little update and a post away from my 30 days of truth. They're nearly finished now and I have to say I've loved writing them because it has allowed me to be honest with myself and my followers :) Anyway once they have finished, I'll be bringing back my Time to Smile posts again and they should hopefully be beginning this Wednesday. You may have also noticed I popped a I Would Love... post in the other day. I don't often post those so I'm going to try and post them a little more frequently.

      Tonight I've also updated my About Me Section in the tabs above. It's mostly the same stuff but I would appreciate it if you would check this new one out. Also I've added 30 Days of Truth to the tabs at the top which will make it easier to access.

      Hope you have had a great day and I'll be back to tomorrow x

      30 Days of Truth - Day Twenty Seven

      Day Twenty Seven - What's the best thing going for you now?...


      I would say at the minute the best thing going for me is mostly everything; family, friends and school. School is really good at the minute (and that I don't say lightly.) January exams are over and although I've got a maths re-sit in March and more exams to come in May and June, the exam period is over for now.

      The weather is finally looking up and today I could go shopping without a coat! It wasn't that warm but the sun was out not like yesterday when it was grey, foggy and drizzly. Spring is around the corner which means when I get more money, more shopping to be done for spring and summer time. I'm going to Paris in April, this time with my family and my friends which I can't believe is only around 2 months away. I can't wait!

      And finally, I'm quite excited to leave school at the end of June. It will scary to think that after June I won't be going back to the school which I've been going to since I was 11! Really when I think about it all the major things that have happened in my life have been during those years when I've been attending that school.

      Not Again!

      Sorry for the lack of posts recently - I would love to say it's because i've been busy busy busy without a moment to think but I can't because I haven't. I'm supposed to be busy with revision aas I have a lot of exams starting to peak their horrible heads around the corner but to be quite honest I'm not sure what I've been doing as I haven't even opened up my revision guides! So today I must must must start some and I'm going to make sure that I at least do some Chemistry and History plus I might catch up on my tele programmes from last Friday.


      So as I look out of my window I see snow on the ground - hence my post title today. I do love snow but by now I must say I'm pretty sick of it. It started where I live last November ans started to properly leave at the end of December but now its back! In January snow no longer means: time off school, near to Christmas and ooo its snowing lets go and have a snowball fight! It now means: trying to dodge snowballs at school, nothing to look really forward to (no Xmas) and the horrible slush stuff after the snow has melted! :( I just want summer to start!


      I'm hopefully going to be posting a few more times this week but my exams begin this week so maybe I won't. But definitely after the end of January - I will be back regulary with hopefully a new feature. I've realised I've been neglecting my I would love posts so I hope to be posting some more of them but with a little difference. And, finally I would like to thank my new followers! - I'm glad to have reached into the thirties, that may not seem many but it means loads to me! So thank you and keep on commenting because I love when you guys do :) x
