We have a new cat, and he's gorgeous. He's black and white, only has three legs and he's the friendliest thing I've ever met. We've called him Bertie.

I spelt. Showered [Lemony XD]. Slept. Collected leaflets. Slept.

i cant decide yet if i want to go out and watch germany hammer england tommorow, the problem is that i have to be up extra early on thursday morning becuase i have a double driving lesson with my test coming up and i am down the station that afternoon. busy busy.

[Ema]

Its been one of those days where its horrible and cold and I dont want to do much, have tried to tidy up but its not working and have spent most of the day chatting and online shopping too, even though I didnt buy anything it was fun.

Also have you checked that the ethernet cable works and that it fitted flush into the port as my old computer had a termpermental ethernet port

This is the one I use

Thankyou

I think it's a bit different as I have cable not ADSL but I do think some uninstalling may be the way to go - will definitely try it.

Had a really good day hanging out in my former hometown (and unfortunate birth-place of 'Samanda' from BB) Newcastle-under-Lyme today with my friend from high school who I hadn't seen in well over a year, it was a lot of a fun but also made me feel quite sad as I realised how much I'd missed her and the fact that I probably won't get to see her again 'til Xmas as she goes back to uni in Stirling in 2 weeks. Sigh. Finally got to see the Harry Potter film though - I've gotta say I was pretty impressed, they did a good job of portraying Dolores Umbridge as the vile bitch that she is in the book.

[Riz]

Pssst, can you ask her if Stirling Uni is any good?

I had a pretty average day. Schools back into full swing again, although i may be getting chucked out of English. Apparently theres a huge waiting list to get in, and because im only looking for an upgrade from a C to a B or an A, then im not important. Meh, this'll be about the 9th time ive changed my timetable in so many days. God knows what subject i'll pick up.

Ive been really tired lately too. I keep falling asleep just after dinner. Hope im not coming down with something, i get really sleepy when i do

[Bumble_85]

I am losing patience with lots of people at the minute. Included in my list are music snobs, my brother, FiveUS for putting the same whose line episodes on telly for two days in a row, people who don't reply to texts and people who start conversations but don't finish them till hours later. It's fricking annoying.

I also keep saying fricking because of austin powers and it's really (fricking) irritating me now.

[DC]

my driving test is on the 12th september and i am still riddled with these silly bloody errors in my driving. i dont know if it is my new instructor being picky, but it's knocking my confidence. yet if i am out with my dad in my own car i seem to be fine. i am trying so hard and i seem to be getting f*cking nowhere, i cant do nothing right it seems.

[Bumble_85]

I forgot how boring writing about medieval English is. It's freezing cold and windy outside too. I need to move. Or a holiday. Or both.

25 days till I go back to uni!

[Grace]

I've just started researching for Law coursework, and jury service sounds like the most boring thing to ever exist in the world.

[Eyl9]

had my hair done going for a meal to celebrate results tonight with about 10 friends

so so so so happy!

[Bumble_85]

Essay nearly done with a whole day to spare.

New Architecture in Helsinki album.

Pizza.

The day has improved.

[Ema]

Ive had a lovely day, got the results I wanted and have spent all day beaming, went into town to celebrate with friends and sat on chewing gum(oh the embarrasment) thankfully my hoodie covered it, although I was really paranoid..Went home, got changed and went out for a meal with my parents where I saw the lovely estate agent having a meal with his parents and he smiled at me and I smiled back, get in

Tommorow im off to Manchester I think..

[dstrkzn]

I was working tonight Im working tomorrow night aswell hopefully the 'visitors' will have left by then.

[Grace]

My mum is making me go to bloomin' Wiltshire tomorrow to see family. I don't actually like most of my family because they are certifiably crazy, and it's a three hour drive and I'll get quite ill in the car.

Does anyone have a rather chubby twelve year old girl going free? They haven't seen me in three years so that's what they'll be expecting to see. I doubt my mum would even realise. Now, there's a plan.

[Riz]

I have £23 in the bank. Ive decided to go buy as much as possible with it on online sales. I bought a pair of purple jeans just because they were down from £40 to £10. Purple or not, bargain!

Reading and Leeds on now, thats my viewing for the weekend sorted. The Enemy are brilliant!

[Ema]

Ive had a lovely day, went to trafford centre shopping, went into selfridges to get some yummy food and the jelly baby machine spat out loads and loads of jelly beans, have bought alot of chinease and japenese chocolate and they're gorgeous. Also saw Jake from Hollyoaks, bahh he's gorgeous.

[Ema]

Today has been awful, went to meadowhall & someone stole my purse which had £400 cash(it was on its way to the bank)and my bank card with my wages in, boots card and everything, so we went to report it and found that it had been dropped by the silly b*stard in sheer panic and someone had handed it in, so I got it back, but my god scary moment, and they took my topup card-random, which is now no use cos I got a new phone today, Nokia 6288 in black and I love it but, its on contract with 3 so I have to get used to that. Was supposed to be going out with work tonight but I got back late and havent even had dinner yet..

Im working tommorow so that should be fun

[Riz]

Today has been generally uneventful. Well, i did go to the gym which was awfully motivating of me. But ive generally just lazed around eating junk the rest of the day, which kind of akes going to the gym a bit pointless.

Watched the Edinburgh Tattoo tonight (Not sure if that gets shown in other parts of the UK?) and as ever, it was amazing. We say every year, that we'll go next year, and it still hasnt happened. That makes two things on the agenda for next year then: 1. T in the Park and 2. Edinburgh Tattoo.

Got out of hospital visiting tonight which is a nice break. Right now im switching between X Factor and Reading and Leeds.

[KingTutsWWH]

Just trying to explain my absence. I've missed you lot, and probably won't be around for a while longer. I do want to keep in touch though.

Very bad day yesterday - my mum (who I've been caring for over the past 2 months) died. The day after her 65th birthday, consequently I'm in a bit of a mess emotionally, as she was my very best friend.

In the famous words of 'The Schwarz': 'I will be back!' soon-ish.....

[Grace]

I'm really sorry to hear that Nati, it's awful when people die, I hope you're coping okay.

[Timsk]

That's truly awful to hear... You have my thoughts and best wishes.

[goldengirl]

Aww Nati that's awful I am sooo sorry to hear that. My thoughts are also with you.
