The best news I've ever received in my entire life, ever.

I did have some fantastic and entertaining anecdote to bestow on you, however I've just got an offer to go to UNIVERSITY!! As of next year I will no longer be walking the damp and dreary street of north east England but will be living it large in the south east of England. HURRAH!

NEWSFLASH

I doubt anyone out there is reading this (apart from "the best friend")  but If you are you should check out this blog *CLICK HERE*. The person who wrote is pretty damn sexy, I think it comes across in the writing.




PS. I don't know why "best friend" is in quotation marks either. It just is OK!

You did want a picture, right?

Guess what guys! I drew you a picture :)

It's a dinosaur. I hope you like it. I figured that you might need cheering up. If you've had a day like mine, you definitely do. Sometimes I wonder why I picked the subjects I did, I mean who in their right mind thinks Chemistry, Physics and Biology is a good idea. Don't get me wrong, I get to learn all sort of interesting things; Science can be cool. I mean look at Professor Brian Cox (*dreamy sigh*) I don't think physics has ever been more relevant. But seriously, today has been horrific.

It doesn't help that I only had one free period today. I genuinely don't know what I did when I actually had to attend lessons all day. I was probably a more grumpy person. I'm sure they are supposed to be "study periods" and you're meant to use them to do work, however, I tend to use them as cafe periods. I've got two tomorrow. Life is looking up :)

My slight obsession with other peoples lives

I don't know what it is about blogs that fascinates me so much, but I am a regular visitor to several. My favourites vary in content from professional blogs by professional bloggers (Cakewrecks and Hyperbole and a Half are, in my opinion, two of the best) to more personal blogs that I've stumbled across. 
Although I enjoy reading the two aforementioned blogs it's the personal ones that intrigue me most.


 I love the illicit thrill of finding out about a strangers life, its almost like being a spy. I find myself utterly caught up in other peoples stories, I enjoy reading about them going shopping or the fact their baby can roll over or that they've just learnt to cook a new meal. In some respects they are more interesting than many television soaps because they are real. The people in them actually exist somewhere. They are living breathing entities that I will never meet, yet I know minute details about them such as the shade of cream they've just painted their living room. I find this utterly phenomenal. 


I wonder what the writers would say if they knew how much interest I take in their lives. I do feel a little like a stalker sometimes. I'm always reticent to comment on them because I worry what they would think about a teenager from England commenting on their lives a thousand miles away. I know how absurd this is because I really hope someone out there would find my life interesting enough to comment(please!) but I can't shake off the feeling that I'm a little bit of a creep for being so interested. 


I guess it's the same reason that, as an adult, I still indulge in playing on Sims occasionally. I like other peoples lives, I love they way everything fits together, how a family is still a family whether in another culture or even virtual. I take some comfort in that. Of course it's probably just because I'm nosey...

Why I love the internet

I would like to give you an interesting anecdote for today but I shall mainly be spending it doing homework. Thrilling. However, homework is apparently necessary in order to achieve some qualifications. Therefore, I shall turn to my old friend Mr Internet to provide you with some quality entertainment. I present to you the beauty that is, DANCING GRANDDAD!

In reference to my previous post, my dancing is even worse than this....
