8:22 pm	Lucy baby lives on!!!! Lucy, who died this last christmas day, has made it into a book! ages and ages ago on Jo Leigh's blog she was asking for readers to send her pictures of their pets and some descriptions so she could add them into her latest book. well number 11 on this list is my lucy baby. I miss her so much and its amazing that she gets to live on like this. http://joleigh.com/readers-pets/ my friend max's pet is number 3 and 4 btw. I'm off to buy the book Current Mood: ecstatic (Comment on this)
8:00 pm	Destroying the garden So today i helped dad destroy the garden and here are some pictures to show the extent of it. Basically we cut down four full sized trees. here's a before (from before it got to spring/summer) : and the rest are under there: ( excesive pictures under here ) so yeah... it was insane trying to cut down some of them and we still have two more to go. but i got to help fell a tree! don't get to say that everyday. of course...the garden is going to look SO uneven when we've finished so there may be some planting afterwards. who knows.

6:29 pm	Oops I have pink hair. no....really...i do.... don't laugh too hard now but I have pictures to prove it: ( under here ) Well...it's not too bad...i'm hoping some purple will tone it down some...but i'll leave it a week or so to let my hair recover. (originally it was going to be dark red with purple highlights/streaks) ION The interview was awful, mainly because it was a group one and one guy seemed to think it was a one on one with an audience and hardly let anyone else get a word in. Luckily the job was one for fundraising on the street - so the hair didn't really affect the outcome. I'll hear later if i got it but no biggy if i didn't. Oh! and i saw Iron Man yesterday and it was fucking AWESOME! if i had money i'd go see it again. Current Mood: pink!! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

2:11 pm	News! I got into Newport!! They responded with an unconditional offer. Basically this means that i have a gurenteed place no matter what happens at Glamorgan. Also, I got myself a job interview today. Chris and i were on our way to the bus stop andhe spotted two ladies with "are you looking for work?" t-shirts on...I spoke to one and now i have an interveiw on friday at 2 to be a sales person. Basically i'm going to be one of those annoying people on the streets in Cardiff who annoy you by asking if you want to join charities. Ironic really considering the fact that i avoid them like the plague! But it's reall good money (which it should be for making you stand on the street all day in all weathers) and you get bonus' for signing up people. I think its full time but i'll see what the precise times are when i go to this group interview on friday. Luckily it's just for the summer too. Fingers crossed. ION i saw a ferret today. No, seriously, it was a realy small/young ferret. A guy walked past me holding it and chris said he'd seem them earlier and he was giving the ferret a walk. Awww... I was so shocked i didn't have time to stop the guy and ask for a picture. Nevermind... I'm heading off to Chris's Uni (well mine too i guess) after this and then hopefully my hair will finally be RED! Current Mood: accomplished Current Music: nothing (Comment on this)

8:27 pm	FREEEEEEEEDOOOOOOM! I have finished all my univeristy work which means i am now FREEEEEEEE! yaaaaaaaaays!! Also i did my transfer paoerwork so no more glamorgan, forever! http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-16_09-34.jpg Last veiw from the railway bridge. I was once in that dome.... good times. http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-16_09-36.jpg Goodbye treforest station. And for family ( some photos ) ION today i actually went out *gasp shock horror* baught a DVD (flashdance) and two books (twilight - stephanie meyer, Tommy sulivan is a freak - meg cabot). My legs are in agony as are my feet. feet because i've worn my soles down to nothing on my trainers again, and legs because i buggered up my knees walking around town so much after being inside so long. Also, i'm borrowing lyn's (chris' mum's)excercise bike long-term to try and get fitter this summer while i have feck all else to do. yay! it does legs and arms so hopefully i'm going to lose some weight like the doc said i should. uhh other than that...not much else has happened. But it feels damn good to have no more work...i'm kind of lost as to what to do. Maybe i'll write another book... Current Mood: Elated (Comment on this)

8:43 pm	Oops I think i just volunteered to write 50K in 30 days or i'll be forced to buy e-books for the winners of the bet/cometition. Ah well, should get me back into writing (for fun!) but what the hell was i thinking lmao. Luckily i don't have to start until after the deadlines, if at all. Half done this essay, half done the other two assignments, so technically only 1 and 1/2 to go. i'll make it.... House is on in a bit so i'm gonna take a break and watch that then come do more work. Gotta see if i can finish this essay tonight so i can work on the one i'm stuck on til the deadline. Current Mood: exhausted Current Music: tv in the other room again (Comment on this)

8:01 pm	Damnit You Belong in the Baby Boomer Generation You fit in best with people born between 1943 and 1960. You are optimistic, rebellious, and even a little self centered. You still believe that you will change the world. You detest authority and rules. Deep down, you're a non conformist. What Generation Do You Belong In? I was born in '88 ffs! Today christy came round and helped me work. he convinced me to work on another essay and i've been flying along since then. only a week to go til my next deadline! ION i got a bunch of letters from Newport so i need to sort them out. May have to take a trip to the post office tomorrow to post my certificates. other than that, i'm still working. sooon it'll be over.... Oh and i went job hunting yesterday and dropped in CV's in Blue banana and Borders. Current Mood: drained (Comment on this)
4:51 pm	They cut down our trees And i'm pretty upset about it too... i took pictures of them doing it. so here's the before: and here's the after: There's these in between but you get the idea. http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-09_14-59.jpg http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-09_15-27.jpg http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-09_16-02.jpg http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i37/Enticing_thorn/08-04-09_16-03.jpg Proper update to come later, right now dinner's almost ready.

7:59 pm	Oh yeah! 51% Although if monkey was in town it'd be 100% (as long as i was already with him) Current Mood: bouncy (Comment on this)
6:09 pm	Well! Waited over an hour for a two minute conversation where the doctor basically said this: what that means is my vein is over my nerves (apparently one in 153 people have it - guess i'm lucky)and i can therefore hear my pulse. theres nothing they can do but he said try to avoid quiet areas when its started because that makes it worse (i noticed). so yeah. The bus ride back was interesting. well two buses actually. On the first there was a guy with OCD who was fascinating to watch, and on the second was some lads of my generation who made me ashamed of being in the same age bracket. Basically talking about how their girl friend is pregnant (he said he was 15 and it wasn't his though he was "shagging" her, it was someone elses his age)and how big their dicks were and how fit that girl is on the bus stop and how their uncle and brother and mates and second couswin twice removed were good at knocking people out and how their uncle had killed someone in self defense with one punch etc etc. there were children in hearing range and they kept swearing! loud enough for the driver to hear, though he didn't say anything. it was rediculous, i really wanted to tell them to shut the hell up, but there were three of them and they looked the violent type lol. right. On with work. Current Mood: cold (Comment on this)
8:39 am	Hospital today have to leave at 1.30 ish to catch the 101 up there for my 2.45 appointment. Hopefully it'll be a quick informal thing of the doc telling me the results of my MRI (aka i'm fine - just ignore the pulsing in my ear)and then i can come back and say i told you so. Of course they could be really mean and tell me i need another MRI (no fucking way am i having it unless they knock me out first), but they probably would have sent me an appointment for that so fingers crossed i don't have to go through that again. Either way, i'll post what happened when i get back. Current Mood: contemplative Current Music: tv in the other room again (Comment on this)

12:29 pm	YES!!! Newport accepted me! woooohoooooooooooooo! I got an email from ucas and i've been accepted!!!! YAAAAY! a conditional offer, and it seems the condition is me showing them my certificates to prove my qualifications! So now I know what i'm doing next year! Now all of that's sorted and all i have to do is get a job for the summer, and finish my assignments (only 2 essays and a writing folder to go! and only 2 weeks to do them *eek*) but YAAAY!

8:21 pm	wheeeeeeTHUMP That's the sound of me collapsing by the way. Did some filming for Chavslayer2 today amongst other things and now i'm completly knackered. Last ep of Torchwood tonight, then Dr Who tomorrow, other than that it's wall to wall essay writing (killmenow). Hopefully i can finish these two essays (and writing folder)really quickly and then relax for a while, while i wait for newport to get back to me. Really can't be dealing with more stress right now, but i do need to go get a job. Gack. Current Mood: determined Current Music: tv (Comment on this)

4:26 pm	Urgh I've got two essays to get done in two weeks (both of which i have to get really good marks on or i won't pass) and the hospital on monday. Hopefully it's just a consult as I got the letter 3 months ago, and not a "You're going to die if we don't operate" situation - coz that would seriously hamper my essay writing, and my chances of passing. Uni all day on the 8th, hopefully my last ever day (unless newport don't let me in). Oh and then i've got to finish my Starting to Write folder by the 21st. Other than that my website is nearly done. Just gotta add more stories or whatever to it (waiting for an ok to use the work from my Writing Media assignment that i haven't handed in yet.) Also i got my UCAS letter this morning (at half six - cheers posty), so Newport now has my application *fingers crossed*. Might email that nice english lecturer who helped me, and see what i have to fill out in the way of paperwork. Had a nice holiday yesterday and the day before, spent them both at chris' house, and did not much work, but had some nice quality time with my fiance, who's now doing his own work and and then back in uni so it was my last chance to see him for a few weeks. Uhh...Other than all of that, i'm missing my old college friends. We were meant to be meeting up at some point but now i'm too busy. Guess i'll see them in the summer now. Right...that's all my news. ciao Current Mood: drained Current Music: X-files on the tv in the other room (Comment on this)

10:23 am	Meme-y-ness and news-y-ness Icon meme time!!! 1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons. 2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose. 3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts. My icons as queried by swampers This is Doctor McKay from stargate atlantis doing his Crazy Genius Face!. I use this icon when i'm feeling particularly clever, like now.(see news for details) What WOULD McGyver do? I made this icon to prove all you need is a swiss army knife, a ball of string, some ducttape and a paperclip and you can get out of any situation life throws at you. Such as crashing planes, trains, or cars/taxi's, capturing rogue hawks on snow covered mountains, or escaping from explosions. Remember kids, WWMD? This is Fizzgig from the Dark Crystal film dancing happily on a rock. unfortunately swampers has a better one of these than me, but it still make sme happy to see it. Bwahaha! This is Matt from ThreePanelSoul Each of those words show the (true) story line this came from. I just like the way it shows all those reactions in around a second. And finally I use this as my default piccy at the moment. I think i found this one on a website as an avatar and just kept it. I just like the eyes on it. and now for something completely different! NEWS!!! I have finished 2 out of 6 assignments and i'm very happy with myself (hense the genius face). I did shite loads of words on my shakespeare essay last night and got it finihsed, so i just need to print that. Today i get to play around with code even more code on my website, see here, and uploading crap loads of content so i get my marks. I've generally been glued to the computer for the last X amount of weeks since i last updated, doing work. But i did go out a few times so i didn't turn into a zombie. that's about it.

10:28 pm	Mum's Prezzie I got mum these Lilies on thursday and they're all just starting to open and look lovely: I also got her a book and some chocolate covered brazil nuts (i threw in some yogurt ones too)so she was pretty happy on Mother's Day. (Comment on this)
8:39 pm	Ok fine Proper update. (mainly because i just noticed how little i've been posting) I did see John Barrowman, and indeed i got his biography signed Me and john in the same photo (we were rushed through as there was a queue all the way through the arcade and out onto the street on the other side) My signed book. Only one of my flatmates have gotten in trouble, a written warning, while the two main culprits and instigators of my misery have escaped unscathed. Thanks a bunch Glamorgan - no, really. Also i still haven't had my rent back so i've lost about 600 quid as i assume they haven't moved anyone into my room. Again, thank you Glamorgan. They really (DON'T) look after students there. Been getting on with my assignments, i have 6 weeks left til they're due in, but it's getting really hard to time manage when i know i have to spend hours on each one and i can't just keep skipping from one to another. But i can't do them in order either because i'll run out of time. Luckily i've only got this week and next week in Uni then it's free time for three weeks so no lectures to get in the way. Uhh...probably missed loads of news, but can't really think of anything, and i have to get on with work anyway. til the next time i remember. ciao Current Mood: tired (2 Comments |Comment on this)
