Lazy days?

It's been nearly two weeks since I updated- sorry about that. It's because nothing has really happened... or has it?

First of all, on the 11th of June, I officially finished my GCSEs! It's SUCH a relief. I have NO school work to do :D

So since then, I have basically sat at home and done nothing.

Well, I say nothing. I have been to a party (I NEVER go to parties. I'm never able to. So this was a BIG DEAL to me. :P).

I have made TWO VIDEOS, which was pretty good going I think, considering I haven't uploaded any for 8 months. I was planning on making on for every day last week, but they ended up taking such a long time to make that it didn't work out.

I have been shopping A LOT. I am currently in the process of trying to replace my wardrobe, since most of my clothes are AT LEAST a year old. I also needed clothes for the induction days I have to go to this week. It took forever to find clothes. Especially a black cardigan... I really wanted one, ever since my sister stole my black hoodie. I thought it would be easy to find one- I mean, EVERYBODY seems to be wearing cardigans these days, but I was SO WRONG. After six shopping trips, I finally found one today. So YAY!

Apart from that, I have played on Guitar Hero and generally messed around. Actually, I have done more piano practice this week than I have all year, so I'm pretty happy about that :)

It's been great just having the week to totally relax. After months of having to constantly work, revise, or feel guilty about not working or revising, just one week of freedom has been a very welcome relief.

But it ends today.

Well, technically tomorrow. I am going to London tomorrow to see Phedre at the National Theatre, and I am VERY EXCITED as I haven't been to London since 6th May, and even then it was straight off the coach and into the theatre, and then straight back on the coach afterwards. So I haven't properly been to London since January. So YAY!!!

After that though, I have three induction days, and then two weeks of work experience.

During my work experience though, I am staying with my Mum. I've never stayed with her without my sister, so I'm REALLY looking forward to it!

But after that, summer will officially be here! I can't WAIT!

I'm not sure when I will next be able to blog. Not that it's very interesting anyway. But I hope that more interesting things will happen soon that I can tell you about.

Ciao for now!

Snail Mail

There is one thing that I don't like so much about the Age of the Internet. That is the lack of physical mail we get.

I always get so excited whenever I get a piece of mail. Even if it's a bank statement. And I know that that sounds weird, and that I probably wouldn't get excited if I got mail all the time, but still...

When I know that there is something in the mail being sent to me, I get even more excited.

So imagine my excitement for the past week and a half, knowing that my copy of the Chameleon Circuit album is on its way to my house.

Everyday for the past few days, because I have been home as I didn't have any exams, every time the post man has come, I would wait until he was out of sight, and then run like mad to the post box.

And every day, I have been disappointed to find letters and packages for everyone else in my house except me.

Today I got home from my exam at about quarter past twelve. I checked the post box through the little slit in the top, only saw a junk mail leaflet thing, so decided I would empty it later. Nothing. Again.

But when I went back half an hour later to empty it properly, THERE IT WAS. A little packet with my name on it. I pulled everything out, ran upstairs and ripped it open.

And now I am the very proud owner of a Chameleon Circuit album, as well as a CHAMELEON CIRCUIT PIN BADGE, which for some reason excited me nearly as much as the CD itself.

I don't know why I am telling you this. I think it's just a way of wasting time so that I can listen to it whilst I type before I have to go and revise.

And Rachel, I don't know if you like Chameleon Circuit, but if you want to borrow it, you can :)

Now I'm off to admire it some more.

I am such a loser.
