Myspace

Just a quick post from me (mainly because it's nearly nidnight and I'm tired and would lie to go to bed) to say that I now have my own space. I'm still getting used to the stuff and I also can't seem to add people as friends as when I try and log in it tells me it's wrong and it won't send me my password so I can't work out what to do or who to ask but if anyone wants to add me as a friend that would be cool. :-) It can be found at the normal bit/ secretsinside or mysecretsinside I think, I'm not actualy sure, i'll prob look it up and post it tomorow. :-)

I'll try and come on here and blog tomorow, I have stupid size stories to talk about - how can you have sizes 2 and 0 and why am I prob a 2 in dresses when I'm usually an 8! I do have a busy day tomorow though with homework, more dress shoping prob and practicing for a Gcse music practical on monday which I have to have 3 pieces learnt (I play keyboard).

Busy, Busy, Busy

I seem to have a hundred and one things to do this week and in the coming weeks but I am trying to keep my blog updated (which means usually doing it at school, not always a good idea depending on what I'm writing, nobody knows I have a blog and I don't really want half the people at my school to read it incase I mention them ;-) lol ).

I'd mentioned that I'd had a college interview coming up and I don't think i've mentioned it since so I went to it and I was a bit apprehensive but it was fine, not heard anything yet though, so hope I've been accepted, I'm going to the college's open evening today as I want to look into the subjects I want to do and make sure I'm happy with it all.

I've recently been shopping for a prom dress which I wasn't going to do yet as I thought it would be too early but it seems they are already running out of lots of the nice ones which means I need to hurry up and find one as I found out when I went that even size 8's and too big and some of the size 6's were aswell! I was looking for a deep purple but after seeing the choice I think I might have to change my mind and go with what ever I can find. I'm hopefully going to go to this particular shop again this week with my mum, hopefully I won't get stuck in the dresses or rip them (this nearly happened when I went before...I think I need more practice of putting dresses on and a bigger changing room would be helpful I got in a right muddle the other day *embarrassed* lol.

Aswell as the reasonably o.k things I also have a Gcse Science exam today, music practical on Monday, a application for a uni summer school to fill in asap, science coursework to improve, 12+ pages of French to learn for April, a practice English exam on the 23rd March, and we are supposed to have started revision for our main gcse's. Now I understand what the teachers meant when they warned us Year 11 might be a busy year!

* I was going to go and see either Tabby or Paolo last week but in the end I decided not to but thanks to someone I got a copy of Paolo's cd which is great. There is even a song with my name in it. I/m hoping I will get another chance somewhen to see them both. I'm currently still considering going to see Alchemy but it is on the same day as the harry Potter dvd comes out...when will I get time to watch it lol.

A break down in communication

I was without my computer on Tuesday as it was booked in to go to PC World. I had tried to change the screen resolution as it wasn't all on the screen but itwent blank and we had to ring a helpline to fix it which meant that we had then fixed the other problems we had but the graphics card was not working properly so the icons and everything were huge. It is now fixed which is good but I wasn't pleased when told that I couldn't have the computer back that day. I did manage without it though but I realised just how important my computer and the internet is to me.

On a completely different subject, something that doesn't require the internet, well only to research certain details, is writing my very own fanfiction, which for anyone who doesn't know is when you write your own story using characters and other details from an already written book. Mine is a Harry Potter fanfiction, unsurprisingly ;-), and it features one of my favourite characters - Neville aswell as Luna as it's main characters although I expect it will include most of the others at some point. I decided to write a fanfic about Neville and Luna because I love Neville and I think that him and Luna would make an interesting couple. The HP books are told from Harry's point of view, hence the name, but I decided to write mine in Neville's, I'm trying to keep the story of the book the same but from Neville pov rather than Harry's which means any points that Harry is not with Neville in the actual book I can invent although I may not get all my facts right. I think mine makes most sense if it is fitted along side GOF as I don't think at that point neville as met Luna properly and the stuff at the ministry hasn't happened yet and neither has the graveyard stuff so the tone is reasonably cheery at this point. :-) I'm not really sure where I'm going with it, I started one before but didn't finish it. I started a couple of my own stories when I was younger, about ghosts mainly because they were the sorts of books I read then although now I enjoy reading a different genre and I'm hoping to get further with this than I did any of those that I attempted before. I'm currently reading an autobiography of JK Rowling which is quite interesting and was talking about her childhood home which sounded to be in a lovely rural area, which is what I imagine Neville to live in so I'm hoping to add that detail into my fanfic at some point, but I'm not sure where to put it yet.

On another completely unrelated subject, I went to the Latin dance group again this morning as I have been doing for the last few weeks. It's called a Latin group but I didn't think the waltz was a Latin dance although what do I know? lol, we have also learnt bits of other dances that I did consider Latin dances and I am really enjoying it and I was proud of myself because I did go there by myself at first which for a quiet, shy person like me is an achievement. :-) I'm now considering applying for a place on a summer school at a university, either Oxford or another one that I can't think of at the moment when nearly all of my friends are going back to one that we went to last year for a few days (Winchester), I've not decided for definite but as I have already been there before I thought it would be more beneficial to take the opportunity to experience another university this time but it would mean probably being the only one from my school there which is quite scary considering it would be a little way from home and for a week. I think I have until Monday to decide!

Resolutions renewed

I thought I'd posted al my new years resolutions but I can't find them so I can't have done but I will post a bit of an update to them. There are a few that I have achieved which are -

*Joining a Latin dance group
*Going to lots of gigs and other events (Alchemy, Collectormania, Tabby so far...hopefully/maybe Tabby again somewhen, Paolo and Alchemy again next month and I'm hoping for a chance to see Alistair, Riccardi and The Story's somewhen :-) )
*I sent my college application off (I now have an interview to go to next weeek which I'm a bit nervous about)

I have failed with one though - spending less time on my computer, going to bed earlier and getting up early enough to get to school on time. I really need to start spending more time on school work and revision rather than on the computer and I need more sleep, so this is a end of feb resolution. I have a Science modular biology test on the 8th so I need to start revising a bit for that and I have a english practice test on the 23rd.

A passing hello

Hello. I've been meaning to post but I've not got round to it, I'm hoping to soon though, as I want to have a look back at the new years resolutions I made, see which I've acheived/failed and which I still can do and which need to be changed or updated. :-) So hopefully I will blog about that (and maybe even an update on my Harry Potter obsession *ahem* I mean interest) soon :-)

ps. I went to see Tabby and The Tsars on Saturday and they rocked. :-) :-D

A kind of sucessfull week

Well I've managed to go to Manchestor, meet some of the Harry Potter cast, join a new forum (for Tolga Safer) and buy a skirt for £3 that was originally about £20ish, oh and I've done a bit of revising too ;-) :-D I'm off to see Tabby (1st X-factor) performing soon so that should be good, back to school tuesday though. :-)

Should I stay or should I go?

I've been neglecting my blog a bit recently and i'm afraid it will be atleast another day until I can make a proper entry. It is half term next week so I should get time to post although I have quite a bit of revision/homework to do,I am hopefully going to see Tabby (x-factor) perform next week though and maybe go to a few other places aswell :-) I'm currently debating whether or not to take the long journey to Collectormania (www.collectormaingmex.co.uk) tomorow.

Not going today meant I could go Latin dancing this morning which was fun, it was my 3rd week, I am hopfully going to continue going as I enjoy it.


Edit: I went to Collectormania, it was great, I got to meet all of the Harry Potter cast members that were there and have my photo taken with them and their talk was funny. I've written more about it over on Alistair-griffin.co.uk in the highlights thread, may write more here tomorow, too tired now lol :-)

Tuesday's child

I have now finished a 2nd Louise Bagshawe book, after I enjoyed reading Monday's child I thought it would be good to read Tuesday's child and although not as good as the first, it was still an enjoyable read. Whereas in the first book, you knew really what was going to happen quite early on but in this noe although, to an extent you did there were a few surprises, for instance I did not think Todd would end up in court for Fraud or something along those lines and I actually didn't see the Victoria thing coming, I thought he didn't like her lol, but I did correctly guess who Lucy would end up with. As was the same in the last book though, when I got to the end I wanted more, although I can imagine what would have happened I wanted to read about Victoria's reaction and Lucy's family and read about their wedding and everything. I know some people prefer things to be left like that but I'm one who loves to read all the little details.

Not sure what to read now, I get confused if I go to the library with all the rows of books and no idea where to start looking or what I'm really looking for, yet I really enjoy reading but never know what to, I think I need to find something soon, before I start to re-re-reading the Harry Potter books ;-) lol

If anyone's got any suggestions for books that they think I might like going by what I've posted about the others that I have read or just has some that they really like, leave a comment :-)

Pottering

O.K, sorry I have just taken the title from the title used on DA for my contribution to the DA birthday blogs but I couldn't think of anything better and it sort of fits.
My computer has been into PC World again today so I'm a bit behind with everything and am late to bed and tired but wanted to post this quickly while it is more relevant.
A website I visit
www.leakylounge.com celebrated it's birthday recently and had many fun ways of celebrating this occasion on the site. This site also has a podcast - www.pottercast.com, which recently revealed a project/plan it/leaky was working on and then left us to theorise as to what this could be, we still do not know for sure what it is although I'm thinking some sort of search/ better site, new layout, archive type thing perhaps, anyway back to Pottercast, if you like Harry Potter I think you should listen to it, it does have lots of interesting discussions on it but also it nearly always makes me laugh, and I enjoy listening to it, so much so, I contacted someone who ran a fansite for it when they mentioned perhaps setting up some forums and she said I could be a super mod on this fansite for Pottercast - www.pottercastfans.com/forum. Go and check it out, if you want :-) (O.K shameless plugging going on here ;-) )

*I'm sure there was also something else I was going to mentione but can't remeber what it was, might not have been anything lol :-)

Late as usual

So I'm late again, (although technically it's only an hour since Saturday actually ended) and I've already seen what others have blogged about in celebration of the wonderful blog that is DA's birthday, to be honest they're all too good to compete with, I couldn't choose what to blog about and I talk rubbish most of the time so I'll keep this short and try not to talk about anything too complicated, especially not when it is about half 12 at night and I'm about to fall asleep on my keyboard.

I'm not sure if I'd have started blogging at all if it hadn't have been for DA, I happened to stumble across it one day and have been reading it regularly since then. I was relieved to find someone who blogged about Harry Potter, someone older and more intelligent As well, which made me think it was O.k for me to mention it, quite a bit I must admit (there's more HP related stuff to be blogged about tomorrow, *oh goody I hear you cry*) in my blog. I can see why the fascination with Snape aka Alan Rickman is there but I prefer the good guys ;-) (hmm, yes Snape may still be good but that's a much too complicated issue to go in to now). So anyway better get to the point to this blog as I said this would be short. You can blame DA for me starting my blog or if you like my blog you can thank DA...i'll leave you to decide which you'd rather do ;-) :-)

Oh how I love a happy ending...

Well, I have finished reading the book - Monday's child by Louise Bagshawe and it does have the happy although quite predictable ending that I was hoping for.

I haven't really read many books recently with the exception of Harry potter books, which I've read and re-read and maybe even re-re-read. I used to get a lot of books from the library, mostly teen murder mystery books, I think most of them were series type books (point something perhaps, not sure) and really all I have read before has been children's books (I know Harry Potter is no longer purely a children's book but it was originally so that kind of counts) so this was a different type of book to which I'd read before (although it did have two references to Harry Potter in it which was amusing to me) and I loved it. I wasn't sure at first but I really got into it. I felt a connection to the main character 'Anna Brown' as I am, like her, the not so pretty one amongst much better looking friends who get all the boys attention, there's quite a few differences as she is in her 30's and thinks she's fatter than lots of people which is the opposite to be being skinnier than most people, which is not always an advantage as some may think. I don't usually mind my friend having more interest from boys but I have to say this week because I do actually quite like someone at the moment so I noticed the fact that they all seem to manage to quite easily get boyfriends more and reading this book was quite interesting, I wonder if I'll get a similar happy ending (although perhaps not the possible marriage bit ;-) )

Anyway I did really like the book and now I'm actually disappointed that I've got to the end, I wanted to read more about Anna and Mark Swan and be told all about their marriage, which she'd have invited Kitty and all the other people who laughed at the thought of her and Mark, just so she could show people you don't good looks aren't always everything, I'd also liked to have read more about how her job as a screenwriter went, now I know this is meant to be left to the imagination but I just wanted more to read. I think I may start reading her next book 'Tuesday's child' I'm wondering whether there is/will be books for all 7 days, having read the back I'm not sure if it'll be as good, sort of sounds like it's on the same lines as the other one but I didn't[t known ow much I was going to enjoy 'Monday's child' when I read the back so I think I'll give 'Tuesday's child' a try.

* Hope this all makes sense, I've left it until the evening when I'm tired again, although having spend too much time on the computer last night and getting up to listen to Alex Zane (one of my new obsessions, O.k well not really an obsession, I just think he's great) on Xfm (although turned out he wasn't presenting the show this week for some reason, not sure if we were told what it was, was concentrating more on my book than I was listening to the radio for most of the time and then I went Latin dancing which was fun, I wasn't the only one, although there were two people I sort of know from school which was a bit embarrassing but the shy quiet person that I am, was proud of myself for going even though my friend couldn't come so I went by myself and actually talked to someone :-D I'm hoping to go again :-)

Is it wrong to fall in love with a fictional character?

O.k so I've not really fallen in love with this particular 'character' but I think I like him more than is probably normal. Has anybody read Monday's child by Louise Bagshawe? I'm really too tired to write anymore at the moment so if anyone has read it and got any comments or guesses as to who I may be referring to, leave a comment (although no spoilers please as I haven't finished the book yet :-)), and I'll read them and write more tomorrow when I'm *hopefully* more awake :-)

Why does the computer insist on telling me that something is not responding?

I have to admit I got rather annoyed yesterday when my computer would not let me watch the Bedford webcam however I tried, not even after I re-started the computer. I wanted to watch Alchemy (www.alchemylive.com) but I wasn't able to. My computer is low on memory and very slow so that could have been the problem but I'm not sure, I've not dared to try it and see if it works today as annoyingly whenever I tried to play the webcam on the site it just made everything go slow and I had to try and close it and it took ages for it to close, but it doesn't just close when I go to the task manager and press end now- oh no, it displays a message saying 'This program is not responding'... really!, and I suppose I hadn't noticed that and that wouldn't be why I'd resorted to pressing 'end now'? My computer and the Internet are the things that can make me very annoyed, which probably shows just how dependent I am on it and when it goes wrong, I get rather angry, although I think yesterday all the things that were/are in my mind and all the stresses of gcse's revision, coursework and other non-school related stuff culminated (not sure if that's the right word?) so I got more upset and annoyed than I may have done normally, thankfully today I'm o.k again and the computer, although still slow seems to be behaving itself. My dad's ordered new memory and it will be going in sometime next week to get that put on and my DVD-RW sorted (we had that installed but as soon as we turned the computer off and on again it disappeared of the icon menu so apparently there must be something that's not co-operating with it which will have to be sorted) and I should then be able to put some internet security onto the computer as it has none at the moment as it needs an update but we can't use the DVD drive and we probably don't have enough memory anyway however I don't like not having anything to stop viruses as I don't want it to get one and for me to lose everything I haven't been able to back anything up yet as the DVD-RW won't work yet *rollseyes* Oh the wonders of technology ;-) :-)

* Hope this all makes sense, it's late, I'm tired :-)


--------------------------------

This is a bit random but I wanted to tell somebody lol, I'm hoping to go Latin dancing tomorow, which was one of my new years resolutions, to go to a dance class/group, so as I have so far failed at keeping some hopefully this is one will be one of the ones* I manage to actually stick to :-)

* The other resolution that I'm sort of sticking to so far would be the 'go to lots of gigs (and just go out more, do something different and have fun in general)' one ;-) Not a very difficult resolution, but it's fun one to try and keep to ;-) I've so far seen only seen Alchemy live (guildford) but I did go to a casting call in London which must come under the 'do something different' part and I've got tickets to see Tabby live and I'm hoping to go and see a few other people at some point (Alchemy again, Riccardi, Paolo Nutini) if I am able to, the problem is that they are mostly on school nights the day before gcse pratcice exams or at places that will most likely be over 18's.

All for the experience

I've had a busy couple of days, if there is an oppertunity to go to something that I want to go to, I usually take it if I can as I think life is for living and I'm trying to enjoy it.
I'm very tired at the moment so will just copy some of the stuff I've posted on other sites and might add more tomorow at some point. :-)

I went on an english trip friday with 11 others to Poetry Live at Portsmouth Guildhall, some of the poet's poems didn't interest me but others did - Simon (?) Armitage was very funny Also int he evening I went with a friend to see Alchemy in Guildford which was good, and we met some girls that had ended up with just the two of them or something like that so we hung around with them for a bit.

Today I went to London but I didn't go with high expectations and it was more just for the experience. I was one of the 15,000 girls (you may have heard about it on t.v/radio - although I think I managed to avoid all camera's ) queued around the streets of London (for 5/6 hours) to audition for a part in the next Harry Potter film. I think I may have skipped a bit of the queue as we joined it somewhere that wasn't the end, but we couldn't find the end as it was winding all around different streets lol and I don't think me and my friend would have made to much difference to anybody behind. We joined the queue about 10.20 and got into the hall about 3ish - when we got in we were told to fill in some details (you had to be between 13-16 and be able to prove it and where you lived, had to be in the U.K, one gilr had queued for longer or about the same time as me and got to the venue to be told that she wasn't allowed in as she was two young even though she didn't look that young) and then (40 at a time) stand infront of two of the casting people and say our name and where we were from and then they choose the few people who they liked (and I think they had their photo taken and then they get back to whoever they like most for actual auditions), neither me or my friend got picked to have our photo taken but as I said before I didn't expect to (if I had I think I'd have been so shocked and nervous about being called back for a proper audition ) and it was still a good experience.


Edit: I was going to add to it today (sunday) but my computer has got to go into PC world so I've not got time now, hopefully it will be back with me tomorow evening and I can add stuff then :-)

A new year, a new beginning?

Well, I've just got round to posting about my Christmas and new year, I had a good Christmas, I didn't do anything much but I did got to our little annual boxing day 'get together' which was fun.
On new years eve, I did something I've not before (as far as I can remember anyway) - I went out. Usually I stay at home with my mum and dad and watch it on T.V, and then go outside and watch the fireworks going off. However, this year I went to a party at a friends house and well although it was good it didn't seem 'right' or like it was new year, I guess because it wasn't my normal 'routine'. Also a friend tried to get this boy out with me and it didn't work so I was left wondering whether I should have stayed home - we didn't get to sing Auld Lang syne (sp) either :-(
I'm still feeling a bit confused at the moment - I've been back to school and kindly reminded that I've got my gcse's coming up shortly and I'm just feeling a bit confused at the moment with lots of things going on. I need to get things sorted - work in neat piles, room tidied and start getting into a better routine as at the moment I spend too much time on the computer and go to bed too late, I think I'm going to have another new year tonight (without the staying up until 12 bit) as in having a new, more organised start (the one I planned last week but this week seems to have been the same as last years so far). I have lots of things that I'd like to do this year and quite a few things I'll have to do this year (gcse stuff/applying for college ect.) so I'm hoping that 2006 will be a busy but enjoyable year.
Hope everyone else has had a good start to 2006. I'll try and keep my blog updated as much as I can. :-)


ps. I can say that I've already gone and seen the new Harry Potter film this year (for the 3rd time lol) and am planning on going to a gig in the next few weeks so in that respect I'm starting the year as I mean to go on ;-) lol.

Merry Christmas

Well it's Christmas eve and I would be in a very happy mood if it weren't for my aching legs and headache but never mind. I don't have a lot to say today so I'll just post this -


Thanks for reading my blog and I hope everyone who reads this has a brilliant Christmas and an even better new year!

Jenny :-)

Space suits, fire alarms and bears - it could only be an Alistair griffin gig!

Well I've had lots of things to keep myself occupied these last few months but one of the best things has got to be going to York to see Alistair Griffin last weekend. It was on a Sunday so I traveled up on the Sunday morning and went back on the Monday. It was about a 3 1/2 hour journey on train but well worth it. As always it was an eventful gig, what with the out of this world entrance ;-) and an evacuation, not forgetting a fond farewell to the much loved bear (although in my opinion the time was right for this particular goodbye so I do hope it really is farewell). The gig was great, it made me laugh and want to get up and dance about (although I couldn't) and I love what he has done to some of the old songs and the new songs are brilliant - even my dad was very impressed with 'something's going on' (I think it was that one he meant, he didn't actually know what it was called) and the way Alistair had performed it, my dad had heard it previously at The bedford but thought it sounded much better with the band backing. On the sunbject of the band they were good although Riccardi - Alistair's previous backing band where mich better looking ;-).
I had decided beforehand that I was not going to let my dad drag me away as soon as it finished and so I waited around talking to people from Alistair's website and getting my dad to ask people if they were who I thought they were (I was too shy) until Alistair came out and started signing things, I have things signed so felt no need to get anything else signed however I was yet to have my photo taken with him, at first I told my dad to wait and let people go first but it soon became clear that they were in a hurry to get him and everyone else out so I let my dad go and ask him if I could have my photo taken with him - I don't think I said anything, not even a thank you,(Thanks Alistair lol) I'm a bit annoyed with myself actually as I didn't really think about it much if that makes sense,I just went up had the photo taken and went off, I had been so intent in getting one but when I did it wasn't, I don't know how to explain it but it just wasn't something. That may make sense to some but then again it might not. I guess because I have followed Alistair for two years or so (not literally, I'm not a stalker lol) that I thought actually standing next to him would be more exciting, I don't know if I'm making sense but I can't really explain it, looking back and seeing the photos, I'm think OMG I was standing next to Alistair Griffin but at the time I just didn't have time to think that and I didn't have much time to think of anything actually. Anyway that may not be making any sense I'll change the subejct slightly. I was quite surpised at how much I said to some people as before I have just nodded and smiled in response to people as I've not been confident enough to actually speak to them, I think I prob did still do this but not as much and I did have conversations with some people. I'm very glad you came over and said hello to me btw Corinne if you read this, I had thought it was you but at the time was trying to get a photo with Alistair and then we were being hurried out so I was glad you asked me if I was who you thought I was before we got chucked right out of the building lol, hope to get to speak to you for longer another time.
After I had returned back to my hotel, I found there were lots of Alistair fans in the hotel bar area so I stayed down there for awhile, I now have an apology to make although I doubt they will read this, I don't know if there are many people from Alistair-griffin that read this (if there are leave a comment please as I'd be interested to see who does, I may have to be careful what I say - only joking they're nearly all lovely lol). Anyway I wanted to aplogise for prob being quite rude, I did listen in to some people's conversation, although in my defense they were right next to me and not talking quietly so I'm not sure if they did not want me to hear or not but sorry anyway. I was just trying to try and join in with conversations as although I speak to many people on site, I feel that you don't really get close friends unless you speak a lot at gigs and on msn and thigns like that. I don't have many people that I talk to on msn from site and in the past I've only briefly spoked to people at gigs so this time I was trying to join in more although I think the thing I achieved was looking nosy. However I did talk more and meet some lovely people thatI hope to speak to again in the future.
I have to add and this is where I'm not sure if I should as I don't know who reads this (although probably nobody, in which case I'm talking to myself and I feel like an idiot - nothing new there then) but I will say it anyway. I have heard rumours about certain people who have a lot to do with the site and I guess they have influenced my views towards the site and people in question but I shouldn't have done as I now do not believe the rumours were true and have a different and much better opinion of certain people so I am sorry to them for my previous assumptions. I came awayfrom this gig with different views, and I like these views much better :-D

ps. I'm sure there is something else I was going to mention but can't remember what it was, I'll have to come back and edit it in if I do remember.
Also if anyone actually manages to get to the end of this without getting bored and going off to do something more interesting and actually understands any of the stuff I'd be interested to hear people's views if anyone has one on some of what I've said. :-)

Feeling down

I'm not sure why but after feeling quite happy most of the time I've started to feel down today :-( I felt a bit unwell and low. I did go shopping with my mum after school though and bought some pretty tops, a wrap around black stripy top thing and I saw a coat that I really liked in Topshop, it was £50 so I didn't get it today but I think I might ask my mum to get it for me the next time she goes into town, I have my birthday money to spend :-D I'm looking forward to seeing Alistair griffin at the weekend but I've still got lots of coursework, a Science mock and other things to do get arranged before then so not getting really excited yet :-( Hopefully I'll feel much happier tomorrow :-)

Tis the season to be jolly

Well it's getting closer to christmas, I only have one more week at school, I've done my French speaking exam, and handed in my Biology Coursework, however I do still have Physics and Maths coursework to finish, English homework and a Science mock but never mind, will hopefully have a half day Friday and I hear there is going to be an ice rink so I might have a go on that one day and finish my Christmas shopping as well , I've done nearly all my cards, I just want to get my mum and dad something, do a few more cards and hand them all out to my friends at school. Next Sunday I'm off to see Alistair griffin so that should be good, I have a little get together to go to on another day,I'll be getting my tree and putting all the decorations up next weekend/ week, I'm creating a filkcast (where you change the words of an original song -I'm doing Jingle bells- to something in this case Harry Potter) to send to a Harry Potter podcast and i'm going to make myslef some christmas banners/avatars for the many forums I go onto so it's all getting very christmassy :-) lol :-D

Scrictly Come Dancing :-(

I have become quite interested in SCD this series but mianly because of Patsy and Anton so I was very sad to see them go last night... it does mean I won't have to spend lots of money voting for them now though lol.
I seem to be quite busy at the moment, I have a french speaking exam and a sceince mock exam to do in the next few weeks aswell as other CW to finish, really feels as if we are being rushed to finsih lots of work before the christmas holidays. Only 2 more weeks though and I'll have started my christmas holidays and prob be sitting in a hall in York listening to Alistair Griffin and in 3 weeks time I'll have eaten my christmas dinner and prob be sitting infornt of the T.V lol.
