I didn't actually realise I'd gone over 1 month without posting here! It makes it look like I've been busy revising for my exams, doesn't it? Well I have...
They start in 3 days.
Eep.
I'll be back in another 41-ish days.
A blog about my life, I may post about what's going on or rant about stuff that annoys/elates me, but my main aim is to just be honest.

Cardiff Blue
LA Blue became "Cardiff Blue" on our return journey from the Welsh capital on Friday night.
We were there for a school trip, to view a performance of J.B. Priestley's "An Inspector Calls" in a genuine three dimensions, at the swish New Theatre. Prior to our arrival, a resilient wasp had caused much commotion on the coach, withstanding half a dozen smacks, courtesy of Jamie from Em's tutor group. We eventually approached the theatre on foot; I took this opportunity to scoff the meagre morsels that made up my dinner, my final bite coinciding with the start of the show.
I thoroughly enjoyed the performance; highlights included the dramatic collapse of the Birling house, which woke a few of my school mates up, and the additional symbolism which had been carefully woven into the play.
Back to the end. The chill air of a Cardiff night bustled us back on to the bus, which lacked any evidence of the demon in black and yellow stripes. Eagerly, I grappled for my iPod and set it to play a series of bright, carefree tunes. The sky may have been pitch black, and my cheeks coral red, but nothing could fully detract from the blue…

Happy birthdays
Today I am celebrating three birthdays.
The first (and by far most trivial) is the anniversary of the release of the 1999 album Stay The Same by Joey McIntyre.
The second is the 16th birthday of my friend, (and still prom date, as far as I know) Tom. I'm attending his party later, hopefully it'll be fun! :)
The third would also be a 16th birthday, that of my primary school friend, Amy. Amy was one of my best friends when we were younger, she was extremely kind and loyal. We parted ways when we were eleven, but I still saw her and our other primary school friends every now and then. One time, about two years ago, she couldn't come because she was really ill. She had a brain tumour. Last October she passed away. I still can't believe she's not here any more.
Happy sweet sixteen Amy, I hope you're celebrating in heaven! :')

Prom, Tom, and Chelsea
Two weeks ago tomorrow, Tom asked me if I'd like to go to prom with him; I said `yes`.
Today he asked Chelsea back out - via text - she hasn't said `yes`, but they "went out" before, and I didn't know they still liked each other. I'm not jealous, just a bit confused as to why he would ask me to prom - face to face and almost two weeks ago now - if he still had feelings for her?

2 months down, 10 to go...
I thought it would be nice to do a post today, as it is leap day: February 29th! In a few hours, two whole months of 2012 will have already passed us by, and 60 days from now I will have already seen NKOTBSB in concert! Time files.

Nails this week.
My nails hadn't chipped much from last week, so I just did a quick touch up then painted a silver cracking top coat over them.

I'm not bored...
I'm not bored but I am writing a blog post. Why is it I always seem to arrive here when I'm supposed to be journeying to a different destination all together? I've been meaning to listen to songs on YouTube for nearly a week, yet now, at the opportune moment, I am on my blog. How does this happen? How does this work? I'm thinking maybe- I should stop quoting Joey McIntyre lyrics and do what I set out to do... yeah. That seems like a good idea.
Things I must do in the near future:
Things I must do in the near future:
- Send my St Brendan's application
- Prepare my Derbyshire diary before we go (in 4 days!)
- Learn the whereabouts of important household objects ahead of Em's operation so that I know what to do
- Revise maths and get graphics coursework off the ground
