I think im in love with my radio.

Such a catchy song from Beyonce. Im not tired, its ten past two in the morning and I am in no mood for hitting the sack! I wonder what time I'll actually end up sleeping haha xD. I've just been dancing to "Single Ladies" by beyonce and so thirsty now haha. Tomorrow is gonna be one lazy day, have to do a bit of homework for my assessor on Wednesday but thats about it. I should keep practicing my theory too as its on Saturday. Not much to report.

Emotionally high



Erm so yeah hi.

La de da. Im in love, yeah thats right. He's amazing, I've never known anyone so great and makes me smile like Im on a high 24/7. He's called Jamie and I'm seeing him soon and Im pratically jumping as I write this...Well maybe not as the typing would be a bit haywire.... Plus he's the only one that knows School of Rock off by heart, loves Within Temptation and Nightwish and uhm makes me feel unbelievably special.

We sorta just stare into each others eyes and theres a connection, I can feel it. =).

I just discovered a couple 10,000 miles apart (Scotland & Australia) who vlog to each other on youtube, thought it was so sweet. =] I admire them for surviving THAT far apart from each other...that must be extremley hard.

ANYWAY.. *secret smile* =)

Been working at nursery these past two days, tiring work but I love it. The kids love me and I always miss them until the next time I see them. Today was tiring, I did first aid on a girl who bruised her cheek, managed to keep David calm/occupied and also quiet little Leo got so comfy on me he fell asleep so I had to lie him down on the cushion... Had a good day to be honest =) Just quite tired now hehe.

Driving tomorrow =D Wooooo cmon test, you cant be that far off now. Couple of months maybe???

I have so much to write about but cant put it in words lol [fail]

My delain album should be arriving soon ... It's SIGNED BY THE BAND !!!!! =P Woo, I love my dutch friends for getting it for me. "Oh yeah's" lol.

Street View Spotting

It's nice to know how some people in the city of York react to seeing the google earth street view cars roaming around their streets.

Photobucket

Happy chappy.

These sort of pictures have been rapidly removed from the street view system over the last few days and are still being removed as we speak. Shots of people being sick, being arrested or car crashes have been taken off, and even one of a man walking into a sex shop. Now you just get an error message saying "picture has been removed". Seems like a lengthy task to me.

I've been taking a look at this Google Earth Street view a lot these past couple of days, and cant help feeling that its approach is rather...well...stalkerish.

You can see into people's windows, cars and gardens...and Google say it has blurred out people's faces from the photo. Wrong. There are still many shots of people looking stunned or shocked at the camera (dont blame them) and also car number plates are still in view. So why did Google want to do this street view anyway? What are they trying to say?

Luckily my street is not on google earth yet, and I'm glad 'cause I want to be in the shot doing some random thing like washing my car or walking my dog. Seems random but then I can say that I'm on google earth xD.

I've had fun wandering around London on street view, oh and my friend Matt and I played a "street view" game yesterday where Matt named pubs and nightclubs for me to find in Southampton and then I print screened them to send to Matt and he said if it was correct or not.... yeah we're sad.

But we ROCK!

So...I wonder if EVERY single street in the UK will soon be on street view? Who knows?.

Today

I managed to get up in time and picked up my friend Steph from her house to go shopping in Telford. We were searching for a mothers day gift for Steph's mum and it proved to be rather challenging. First of all it was ridiculously busy, second Steph couldnt decide what to get for her Mum...and thirdly it was really hot inside the place so we just wanted to escape lol. We saw Vicky and that was good ^^ she came round with us for a bit, and then we finally got Steph's mum a lush bathbomb and some thorntons chocolate. I also got my mum a book by one of her favourite author's =]. I bought a new bag and rose-bud earrings from H+M and then we caught the 33 bus home to Muxton. We decided to call on Richard but as usual he wouldnt come downstairs so we walked away with a sad look on our faces....Im really worried about him. Mum picked me up and I went home and chilled out. My brother has a new phone and guess what?...Its the same one as mine. lol

I had a yummy curry for dinner and then I've just been watching the bonfire crackle =]

My blogging energy is used up now

Friday Sunshine

I woke this morning at the reasonable time of 10am; much earlier than previous wake-up times earlier in the week. I went downstairs and checked my facebook as usual, watched homes under the hammer and finally made the effort to go and have my morning (or afternoon) shower.

Doesn't that sound like the opening of a very typical teenage novel? Yeah I think so too.

Anyways..carrying on with the story of my day, I had my shower and started watching A place in the sun ..and yeah I am obsessed with that programme =P. I got dressed and had a sandwich, and then Mum came back from work and we went to Focus and bought a new bench, 2 hanging baskets full of pretty flowers, a bucket and various other things. The bucket was 99p so I was quite impressed lol.

I came back from Focus and managed to hurt my back moving the bench box through the kitchen. Stupid me...It really hurts =(
At 3pm I went for my driving lesson with Dave my instructor. Fortunatley the weather has been glorious again today, and we actually needed the air con turned on inside the car cause it was so hot!! I was wearing my converse and hadn't driven in them before but they turned out to be great shoes to drive in. I drove around Donnington and did loads of reversing around a corner and a few hill-starts, box junctions and had to face some pretty busy roundabouts..but it was good to be behind the wheel and Dave says my driving is coming on brilliantly and that he was "very impressed". =D !

I came home and literally been chilling out since then, watched some tv, had some yummy dinner and here I am...it still light outside! Tomorrow should be good 'cause Im going into Telford with Steph so she can get her mum a mothers day present. I've got my mum a- WOOPs she might read this ;)

Not got much planned for tonight....some good stuff on the tv including A place in the Sun, Home or USA? (*jumps*) OK. I am really sad.

Im in love, he's special, he's funny, he makes me smile, and I may be going to see him soon <3 I love you!

Shockwaves

Photobucket

Here we go again

Im at home today, when I should be at nursery. I didnt go to bed until 3am and woke up to the sound of my alarm with a banging headache and felt like crap. So went back to bed and told Mum I wasnt up to it. I had some more sleep and woke up at about half 11 and still felt like shit.

Yesterday was eventful. Got up early to go into Triangle for my childcare exam and said goodbye to Mum's friend Ann who had stayed with us overnight. I didn't see what was coming around the corner though.

I got in my Dad's van and shut the door, and within minutes felt like I couldnt breathe..I seriously couldnt. I was hyperventilating and panicking cause I couldnt get any air . Mum came to say goodbye and I said to her that I couldnt breathe, she said "calm down" and opened the window to let some fresh air in. After I felt a lot better and Dad took me to telford. It wasnt nice though =/

Got to Triangle and sat down on the front table, then Rosemary sat next to me and we had a good chat cause we are good friends and we hardly see each other. Got given our paper's and had an allocated time of 45 minutes - I took 10 minutes and was out the door lol. Piece of cake that exam =S I am a A*/A grade student afterall.

Walked into Telford with Rosemary and spent a ridiculous amount of money on stuff like cd's , make up, my nvq 2 book, earrings, stuff from poundland and other random stuff. Think I spent like £60 in one day =/. Mum picked me up and I went back home and was watching a place in the sun and was falling asleep, Mum said I looked really pale so I went to bed for 2 hours and felt a lot better. Had some tea, and then mum and I went to the retail park to get some new shoes for work and some stuff for my car.

If you knew me very well, or had been shopping with me, you will know that I am EXTREMLEY picky when it comes to shoes. They have to be right and I can try on hundreds of pairs without even buying any. I have size 9 wide feet and getting comfy shoes is hard. But not this time. I tried on 1 pair and they were so comfy I didnt try any others and just bought them straight away! I also bought some roxy flip flops!! <3.

We then went to Halfords and took back my steering wheel cover that was broken and traded it for a new one. I got carried away in the car accessories section where I persuaded Mum to buy me a me 2 you tax disc plate and hello kitty air freshner. Im like a kid in a sweet shop when I go in that place...so much cool stuff for your car!

Speaking of cars.. driving is going well, got my lesson on Friday and my theory test on the 4th April. Im really confident with it now and managed to pass two mock theory exams with amazing results so...;) Im ready for it.

We then went to sainsburys and did the classic thing of going in for one thing, coming out with a trolley full. It always happens to us.

Nothing going on today, mums back so better go

*takes a look back at blog*

*Is shocked she wrote so much*

Play that funky music

Play that funky music till ya die!

Im back from the real life into the blogging life. Blogging isnt my favourite past time, but I thought as I have a spare moment until major pizza binge out in approx. 30 mins...I thought I'd give it a go.

Changes

  1. I have new hair, its got red in it at the front..(which is now turning slightly orange) and a full block fringe :) I love it
  2. I am taking my car theory test on the 4th April
  3. I love to drive my car , but dont like it when my Dad shouts at me for doing something wrong
  4. Im in love...but right now its out of my reach
  5. I will be employed by April =)
Not much else to report, I cant be arsed to type up what Ive been up to the past few weeks.

I have my childcare exam tomorrow, bright and early at 9:30am and it should be easy.. so I've heard.

Right now my days compose of walking around the house in my pink converse, sitting on the grass playing fetch with Max while listening to Lady Gaga's "Poker Face", The Prodigy's "Omen" and Pendulum's "The Tempest" My favourite songs right now. Pendulum are my fave band right now. =]

It's so sunny and warm these days, I love it. Im making the most out of my days off before I start in my placement at the end of April. I am still working at Abacus twice a week where all the staff love me and the kids think of me as their big sister =) I will miss them all when I go.

Anyway, going to upload some new panaramic shots I took today onto facebook. As you do

Until the next time.........

Driving <3

Is my love :) I drove around Telford this morning , it was hectic but I coped Ok! Dave said my driving is coming along well :) & then as soon as I got in I booked my theory test.

Saturday 4th April =/ Better practice more on my hazard perception cd then! I did about an hour of it today, and I keep epically failing on it because I keep thinking everything small thing is a hazard, Ok I did get some 5/5 scores but mostly 0's lol. Eep! My theory is pretty good now :).

After making a yummy pizza for lunch, I literally did nothing the entire day. I did some more car theory/hazard perception on the computer, had dinner and been on the computer mainly.

Nightwish are playing in London on the 14th March >.< I really want to go, havent been to a gig for a whole year...and that was to see Nightwish! Why not have a 1 year anniversary by seeing them again? Trouble is, I cant get to Brixton very easily lol.

Not much else to report. Tomorrow Im going back home to Ripley to see Auntie Rachel + Emily and possibly Great Uncle Eric. Oh and to get some new vans shoes from Derby too. Woo roadtrip.

New blog design by the way =] It was getting a bit messy before, and I dont know how that harbour layout stayed so long...I think it grew on me. hehe.

(8) Swamped (8) Lacuna Coil <3
