I've managed to fail all my exams :crying: . Whats gutting is i actually worked really hard and studied (obviously not enough).

I'm really sorry to hear that. Are you feel alright about it?

Keep looking on the bright side - you got an unconditional offer for college so you're definetly in to study what you want! What will you be studying?

My dad got a Freeview + box today. We are getting rid of Sky. I am weirdly excited :)

Oh and my two friends have announced they are trying for a baby. They want me to be the godfather!

I was in a state. Now i'm ok with it cause it's in the past. My mum passed her HGV driving test:D

Katy

Glad your Ok with your results now, at least you can do what you want with the unconditional. I know how you feel as i have failed a few exams in my life time and the ones when you have worked are definitly the worseed.

Not having much look with the internet, my wiresless seems tio have bust and this one is coming and going. Not good as all my tickets and confirmations fior Ireland next week are on there and i havent printed them as the printer ran out of ink. I bought a cartridge yesterday but the ink from that is all over my hands, and still wont come off today, after two showers and my mam has even tried paint stripper, ffading a bit now so thats good! I look ridiculas.

I went IKEA yesterday and got some bookshelves, got them put up eventually, my mam hit my hand with the hammer when she was helping me and when i was doing it on my own i cut two of my fingers, complicated things.

Went to the art gallery today was really good, had lots of paintings of manchester as part of an exhibition. was really good i was surprised.

So thats the last couple of days.

Oh and i have just seen my friends ex boyfriend be arrested by two coppers down the end of my street, i wonder what he has done this time.

Kirsty :]

05-08-2009, 19:53

Aw Tannie I'm sorry to hear that, but everything happens for a reason cos as one door closes another opens and like Davey said.. you're off to College anyways :)

Had work today 12-4, wasn't too busy, didn't get home until half 5 cos I was busy having a pen fight haha

Got home and I cleaned thje outside of my car properly and put some stickers on there... I'm so proud of it haha

Don't know what the pans for tonight are, my friends are on about going to the pub but I don't know if I can be bothered, I'd have to drive anyways and I need to save my money.

I've had a really good night tonight.

Went to my friend Ellana's barbecue - it was so much fun! We all played 'I never' and drank loads, and went in her hot tub! Most of us all went naked :lol: but I've lost my t shirt so had to come home half naked.. her hot tub was awesome though! :) I want one! :D:D

Kim

06-08-2009, 17:59

I spent too much on clothes today and all in the same shop :lol: I passed my theory and went on a spending spree with the money that would have otherwise been spent on the retest. Then I saw another top I wanted on the way out so just had to buy that as well :p

Sorry to hear about your exams results Tan. Have you thought about resiting them even though you are going to college you may not have failed by that much and it would be a shame to throw all that hard work away.

I haven't been up to much this week went for a chinese wth my sister, nieces and Marley last night kind of a birthday treat as it's my sister's birthday tomorrow, my neices were in July, mine's next week and Marley in september.

Just up after heading out for a few drinks last night
Great time and pretty fun
Won my drinking challenge - someone thought they could drink me under the table and I can drink vodka all night and not feel drunk and thats what I did :) I don't know how I managed to do this must have something to do with having some russian blood in me.........

Tannie

08-08-2009, 10:29

Now i wouldnt mind drinking vodka all night and not feel anything. :lol:
Today im away off to edinburgh with a friend and her boyfriend. Her boyfriend lives down south so she doesn't get to see him that much and neither do i he's a great laugh:D

Hannelene

08-08-2009, 12:24

It happens everytime I head out I drink straight vodka and I never feel any of the effects! One day it will catch up with me........

Sounds good to me!

Haven't been on for a few weeks, just got back from a week in scotland seeing my my grandparents with mum dad brother and sister. 9 hour drvie there and back and then on the way back got about an hour away from home and the car broke down. luckily we had just pulled into tebay services! Still - had to wait 3 hours for RAC to arrive! Anyways got home - the car started up again fine which was lucky because they said they take you 10 miles for free and then charge after that. We were 78 miles aways from home and said they wanted £200 +VAT before they took us anywhere! Cheeky that. Good job it was fine. Apart from that was a lovely break.

But the week before that i had swine flu (n) NOT fun. I've never felt so bad in my life. I was boiling hot one minute then freezing the next. Headache, earache, tonsilitus the lot!

I'm soo nervous about results day! and it's only 3 weeks away!

Hope everyone else is okay (:

08-08-2009, 19:04

I've had a busy day. Went to visit my brother in law's parents, which is an hour away down windy country roads :rolleyes: Come back with headache and I'm really tired.

Got my assignment finished last night :cheer: 1994 words, closest I've ever been to 2000. Hopefully it will pass.

I think I'm going to have a lazy evening :) Just had a shower so I'll finish the bottle of wine off and collapse into bed in a few hours. I've had a really bad insomnia spell and it's catching up with me now. I went to bed at 7am Tuesday morning :eek: I just couldn't drop off.

Kirsty :]

09-08-2009, 10:21

I had the most random night ever last night it was soo fun!

Alllll day I was stuck inside bored off my head and then had the biggest urge to go ut in the night. So me and my mate went to this pub where her brother and his girlfriends family were and a girl she works with, it was a right laugh... was on karaoke! :)

Then one of our friends took us down to Newport so we met another of our friends there, and I bumped into Adam.. him and his friend went home though because it was pants and by the time they woul've got back they would've stopped letting people in. Aww it was such a laugh! I love spur of the moment nights, they're the best!

Tannie

09-08-2009, 13:49

Went to Kirkcaldy and picked up a brush and eyeliner which i need!

This has to be done cause i can't stop squealing I have to congratulate Bree (Bree/Jakefan) & Her boyfriend Ben on getting engaged this morning. And i am squealing like mad considering i got them together. :D:cheer:

Anyway, he has another year at school to see what he wants to do.

Katy

09-08-2009, 19:57

there brilliant results, you must be proud.

I watched the Mayo Meath GAA qaurter final today and unfortunatley Mayo were knocked out, lost by 3 points (1 goal) gutted, but it was a good game all the same. This afternoon been at the sailing club, that was really good.

DaVeyWaVey

09-08-2009, 22:33

Congratulations to your eldest Trinity. Those are an excellent set of results.

I've spent the day at Aberystwyth today. I have to say I've completely fallen in love with the place. It is beautiful. Me and my family spent the day admiring the view walking across the promenade, then we relaxed on the beach and looked around some of the shops and went in the arcades too. It was reminiscent of the holidays I had as a young child.

I can't wait to start uni there now.

Kirsty :]

09-08-2009, 22:44

Aww wow they're fab results Trinity :D

Had Mums birthday dinner today so out came Nans legendary cook dinner and chocolate cake, then I had work... tip counting has officially become my job :p haha.

I'm home now, and I have a day off tomorrow, and so does Adam.. and I knwo it sounds stupid and idiotic... but all I can think about is how much I'd love to just spend the day with him, like go out somewhere and do something, but I knwo it'd never happen... so I'm wishful thinking, so now I need to think of something worthwhile to do tomorrow, because I'm not staying in again if the weather is nice :)

Results were good, but perhaps not good enough for what he wants to do :crying:

I have just spoken to the admissions people at Dundee and they say that although he meets the minimum requirement they are so oversubscribed that he may not have a chance at medicine - even if he gets AAA at AH :(

Kirsty :]

11-08-2009, 17:02

Ugh I'm not having a good day.

Finally me and my friends decided to go out because it's sunny, and we planned to go to the boating lake, so I todl them that I was walking down as I had my sister and they said ok we'll see you soon, so I got there and asked where to they were sat, and I had a text back off ym friend to say "well we're sat on the hilll.... but we're going now". I was fuming.,

They're always funny with me because I work and never go out, but when anyone goes out they stay for an hour and then go in! Grrr I'm so annoyed, they could've told me sooner if they were planning on leaving! So it was just me and the baby lol.. but we had a good day :)

Katy

11-08-2009, 20:18

i had a very long coach journey yesterday but it was all relitavly streess free! made it to Dublin at 6 this morning not slept yesterday morning, really really tired now but it was all worth it. I have had an amazing day with my friend in Dublin and tomorrow i am meeting my cousin and i am going to do some more exploring. A bit disapointed not going to the West (Mayo) to see the rellies but the 12th september will come soon enough.

Im a bit sunburnt as well, impressed dont think thats ever happened when i have been in Ireland. The Hostels nice, just a bit far from the centre but its still walkable. This it will be an early night for me though. Think was running on adrenaline.

Heading back to Manchester on Thursday thats going to be another long day. Im loving this traveling though, so far i have been to Poland, Denmark, and Germany on the sailing trip and Ireland and the Lake District which doesnt really count. Think i am going to plan more next summer maybe working in hostels as a way of funding it.

Kirsty :]

12-08-2009, 10:06

After my fall out with a few friends yesterday, I went camping with a few other friends in the night up the mountain. Omg what a laugh!
I fell going up.. and I fell coming back down, peeing outside is most definately an experience...as is trying to put up your tent in pitch black haha. Definately would do it again.. my hair has never been so curly though! Haha and I've not slept at all, or ate... so went to my friends this morning and her Mum made us tea and jam on toast :)

So now bath and bed!... and then work later haha

Katy

12-08-2009, 17:03

good plans there Kirsty, sounds like you had a great time.

Dublin has been wicked shame only here fot these last three days home tomorrow. Next step find out the ferry port and how to get there.

Tannie

12-08-2009, 21:20

Today was fine until about half an hour ago.

I've managed to lose 2 friends in the space of 3 days. I don't know how but i have. One's said i'm not much of a friend, cause i apparently gave her number out to this girl she hate's, told them where she lived. But i never cause Charmaine (who hates Aimee) parents live's 2 doors down from her mum. So apparently it's my fault all of Halbeath are going to know and kick her head in. I never done any of it but she doesn't believe me, and apparently the police are coming to speak to me.

And then the other mate say's i like, and then don't have any time for her. She very rarley ask's me to go out anymore so i don't see how.

Just spent the past half hour crying and i just don't know what to do thank's to them i feel useless and my self confidence and esteem have went down even more then they did.

All i want to do is curl up and cry. I've been told i may have to see a councellor again for other reasons but i don't know. :crying:

Sorry for the rant.

I am back in Manchester now, Dublin was amazing! Going back to Ireland in September so not long i am very excited. Was a very long journey, there seems to be just enough time in between each visit that makes me somehow forget that flying is a better option evebn if a bit more money!

14-08-2009, 19:30

Well there goes my solitary Saturday. Maisie went to her other grandparents this afternoon for the weekend but she's on her way back now :( Long story short, she doesn't want to stay and the grandparents don't want her.

My sister and her husband are going to the football tomorrow afternoon so I was going to be on my todd from 2pm until late and I was really looking forward to the quietness. Now I've got Maisie. I don't mind really, it's while since I've had her on my own so we can do fun things together like baking and there's a mini golf course not far away.

Such is life :)

Owwwwwie!
I jsut ahd the last of my HPV jabs, which was fine... the injection itself hurt, and silly me watched her put the needle in and she wiggled it about :(

But she decided to jab me in the other arm aswell with a tetnus (sp?) which didn't hurt, but I'm feeling it now... my arm is sooo dead haha. But I'm covered for life now she said because I've had all 5, woohoo.

Just going to slowly get mysef sorted for work at 1.. have a feeling I'll be kept on until close today...

Kirsty :]

18-08-2009, 00:09

My feeling was right, got kept on until close, the girl who's shift I covered got ill after eating dodgy chicken at a random restaurant :/ was an alright night though :)

My arms are killing.. one arm is beginning to swell :(
Nevermind.

On the plus side.. I got my letter today to say that I had been accepted for College and to let me know about enrolment and that. It says that I start College on "Tuesday Sept. 4th".... do the math haha. It's the wrong day... The 4th is on a Friday... so do I start on the Tuesday? or the Friday?? Haha

Anyway I will tell more later when I have more energy to type loads

Katy

18-08-2009, 16:26

Got some folders and highlighters for me starting college on Monday. All i need now is 2 notepads and some coloured pens for studying. But I'm dead nervous although i have an induction day on Friday, got a friend coming to that with me so should't be that bad.

Tomorrow i don't know what i'm doing but my mum's off so might do something with her.:D

Abbie

19-08-2009, 18:30

Been to the doctors, same doctor I saw less than a month ago, hes given me some different antibiotics, but they are massive! I mean I have swollen tonsils so its not that good, I took one and it was horrible I could feel it go down past my tonsils.
Anyway cos of my history he said, if I get it one more time, hes gonna refer me to get them taken out

Chloe O'brien

19-08-2009, 22:20

glad you had a good holiday abbie. bummer about the tonsilits again hope it clears up soon.

OMG im freaking out, my friend is picking me up at half 9 so we can go get our results

Trinity

20-08-2009, 10:06

In Scotland you get them by mail to your house, with the option of getting them by email or text as well (between 8 am and 9am on the day they will arrive by post).

My son's results email arrived at 0801 and the certificate at 1500.

Best of luck Abbie!

Tannie

20-08-2009, 16:11

I'm sitting here nearly in tears. I've got my college induction day tomorrow and my friend was going to go with me, but she can't now as she has to go into college for 9.30 to get her whites and her timetable and stuff. I wanted someone there when i went in (i need to be there for 1), cause i'm really shy in real life, i've just nearly had a panic attack and started crying, i can't say anything to my mum about it cause she just think's i'm joking but i'm not. i'm dreading it compleltly now to the point where i don't want to go but i have to. urgh :crying:

Trinity

20-08-2009, 16:26

Tannie, breathe deeply and relax. Try to think of something else this afternoon.

Tomorrow you can do this, and you will make friends. Concentrate on your breathing and smile at everyone you come across. If you put on a confident face you do end up feeling more confident - I know it sounds silly but it is true.

I am also quite shy in social settings, but I have learned over the years to make myself go over to new people, smile and introduce myself. It actually gives you a bit of control and that makes you feel better too.

Remember, a lot of people will be feeling just as scared as you.

Best of luck!

Tannie

Tannie it's okay to feel nervous, everyone on your course will be feeling the same. Try not to worry too much the tutors and staff will be very helpful and friendly.

Tannie

20-08-2009, 21:04

Thanks guys I'm not as worried now as another mate said she would come to me and my mum said she'll wait for us plus I'm heading over to Edinburgh tomorrow night which should be wicked the only downside is the crowds which Means panic attacks but I'll try to stay calm. Plus I'm hoping when college starts up the time will fly by I'm getting excited for my 18th lol. :p :D

AOL has been out the whole day. Not good, especially when I wanted to check ucas track this morning, had to use my sisters phone.

Been into London tonight, Pizza Express then wandered into Covent Garden where we saw a guy in pink underpants juggling knives on a unicycle and then juggling chainsaws. He was amusing. He's called Covent garden chainsaw juggler with great ass. :lol:

Tannie

21-08-2009, 16:31

College actually wasn't half as bad as i thought it would be :D. I have fridays off is well even better =):lol:. Didn't take admin instead i've took IT (Higher) & I've also took Using Oral Comm which will help me with my confidence and speaking to people =)

Trinity

21-08-2009, 18:36

Kirsty :]

22-08-2009, 12:06

I'm home alone for 10 days!
Hopefully, without an ill doggy to look after and being a year older, I'll have a better time of it because last year i found it difficult to cope because Scamp was so unwell :(

Was supposed to be going out tonight with everyone, but yesterday my so called friends decided to get all funny with me and now we're not exactly on talking terms so I'm working a 4-close shift instead. Money money money lol

Tannie

22-08-2009, 21:54

Uneventful couple of days. Bought a fish eye camera. Became a seller on Amazon, sold 3 DVDs so far. I am now £6.64 richer. My profit margin is somewhat small but its a start. :lol:

Abbie

23-08-2009, 10:41

:lol: well its a start :)

I was thinking of becoming a seller but wouldnt know what to do

StarsOfCCTV

23-08-2009, 12:17

Its easier than Ebay. You just go to your account on Amazon (if you have one) and press start selling...search for DVD or book and press add to listing, that's about it. :p

Katy

23-08-2009, 13:54

im a seller to, as of yet i am no richer, but im still hoping.

24-08-2009, 13:45

Was a good day - till I realised I start college next tuesday!! That has crept up from no where. I thought I still had at least another week off.
This week should be good though, got a friend staying tomorrow night, results on thursday (not so good!) party on thursday night, manchester shopping for college on saturday, family friends round for a drink on saturday and a birthday bbq on sunday - which always turns out to be good, been going the same one for the past 6 years and it's always a laugh :D

Can't belieeeeeve I start college next week though, I feel grownup ha.

I have had enough of washing up. :lol: The dishwasher is a bit knackered so you have to scrub all the sauce of the plates before you put it in and soak the teacups. I prefer the crematorium I got to sit down. :lol: However, this one pays. I might do the waitressing in the evenings next week just to have it on my CV.

Car is in for an MOT. Needs a new clutch but that isn't urgent so get that done next week because they order everything in.

That made me smile and brought a few memories back :D He's not coming over just to watch a film at this time of night :p

Are you together now?

Kirsty :]

24-08-2009, 23:41

He is coming over to watch just a film lol, I am beaming. It's quite bad.

No we're not together, but there is something there... we had a chat the other day and he said that cos of previous relationships he finds it difficult to let his barrier down now and won't get close.. but he wants too. So maybe I need to ease my way in? I'm quite unsure what to do..

Abbie

24-08-2009, 23:42

I went to the doctors today about stomach cramps. And asked her about my panic attacks and she's giving me a website to have a look at, so having a look at it just now and i hope it helps made another appointment with her for 3/4 weeks to see if i do need to see a counsellor or not, but by then i'll be 18 so it will take ages to see one so i'm not 100% sure.

You can get free counselling through your college or university. Often the waiting list isn't as long as the NHS counsellor.

Jeez what an evening. We called an ambulance about half hour ago for our lodger because the back pain she's been having got too bad, the pills she'd been given weren't doing anything and she was getting panic attacks from the pain. The GP should've listened to her when she first went to him, she had to pay privately for all the treatment she's had so far that she knew she needed. (she's a nurse). Oh well...least she'll get some pain relief at the hospital.

Off to bed now, last day of getting up at 6am yay. :)

:eek: :eek: I was going to go to that!!!!!.... BUt I'm working :( so I can;t! How mad would that have been! Haha

I've had such a pants night, I don't know why, I got left on my own to cope with rush hour in work tonight, which didn't help.. bu I guess there's jsut other stuff bugging me too.

It#s weird because I was fine today, spent most of it with my Mum and her side of the family at the pub as it was a great aunts funeral :/ but it was nice to spend time with them, and then I did some retail therapy.

Then I got to work and it all went downhill... I got in the car and just cried, I hate feeling like this. I wish it would stop.

Katy

29-08-2009, 09:32

hope you feel better soon.

We have been dealing with the dog who keeps trying to eat his bandage.

I fancy watching some football so may go to Stockport County, pretty cheap for a student and there playing SOuthampton so should be good.Sometimes Football league is better than the rubbish they offer at premier league level. I went to the WOlves game last week and it was awful!

I'm so angry with my parents. What makes it ok for them to drink and drive? I would never drink and drive, I have never touched a drop when I know I will be driving yet it is apparently ok for my Dad to drive on 3 plus glasses of wine. He was blatantly over the limit. I suggested a solution to the problem - I will drive two of the group and my sister back, while mum and dad wait in the restaurant. While my sister and I went to my car, they drove off with the two people. They are so irresponsible.

Crappy day all round really.

:eek: and they say that young drivers are the irresponsible ones. It was bad enough that he drove while over the limit in the first place, never mind with passengers in the car as well. I thought my dad was bad enough earlier; using the wrong lane on the roundabout and tailgating people but at least he wasn't over the limit.

Back to school on like Wednesday :eek: This holiday has gone so fast; I really should get some work done.

I didn't stop out all night in the end so I missed Ruth :( but I stayed for the Mardi Gras event in the day, which was really good! Got a load of photos taken, freebies, there were some bands playing, singers, fairground rides, different stalls and a load of drag queens everywhere :D it was such a wonderful atmosphere, lots of people with banners saying "Love is a human right" "Pride not prejudice" etc etc.

I got talking to this guy and got his MSN, but didn't get his number.. ahh well. I got this necklace freebie... instead of GI Joe it was "GI Jonny - To inform and protect" :D

01-09-2009, 19:24

Have had 6 days of pure stress, my husband and I nearly split up when my best friend got it into his head to tell my husband how he really felt about me, and announced he had been in love with me for 5 years. He then threatened my husband so I kicked my friend (now ex-best friend) out of the house. I had no idea he felt that way about me. I had only been doing what friends do and supported him through tough times ie work issues and death of his lovely mum.

My poor husband was crushed emotionally and said I could go be with my ex friend if I wanted to - I asked him why I should go and he said my friend has more money than him. Money has never driven me, as long as we can pay the bills and keep nasty people away from our front door thats all that bothers me. We have one big issue that Im struggling to find a resolution for and thats my friend and I are in business together so how do I deal with seeing him when I cant bare to be near him?

Havent slept properly since and have had such a dreadful headache its driving me nuts. My husband is being so sweet and keeps thanking me for standing by him. I love him, been together 10 yrs, and I have learnt a very valuable lesson you never really know what friends motives are for their friendship with you, and i hate thinking that way.

Now I just want to put the barriers up around myself emotionally and thats so not me, Im always happy go lucky, with a smile and laugh for everyone... any advice on how to deal with this situaltion would be gratefully recieved.

Sorry for the long post.

Gosh, you sound like you've had a rough time of it ((Senorita))

Is there a reason why your friend has come out with this now and not five years ago?

The bit I have bolded is very true. On several occasions I have questioned a friendship with someone I am very close to. We supported each other through hard times and then came the "how do you feel about me" talk. It was very awkward, he thought I intentionally tried to split him and his girlfriend up so I could be with him (untrue). He admitted that he felt something at some point for me. We talk about our feelings for each other a lot but he knows that I can never be in a relationship with him and trying to seduce me won't change that.

As long as your husband knows that you love him and not your friend and that you want to stay with him, you should be fine.

You need to talk to your friend and tell him where you stand and your intentions i.e. to stay with your husband. Whether you stay friends with him can only be your decision but you do have to talk to him as you're in business together. Also let him know that threatening your husband is unacceptable. If you don't want to speak to him, write a letter. Explain what he did wrong and why you are upset with him but don't get angry or start throwing verbal punches.

At the end of the day, we can't help who we fall in love with. I don't know what he intended to achieve by telling you but he maybe went the wrong way about it.

First day at college today. well sorta, was just an introduction type thing. Didn't really speak to anyone new but will hopefully find some new friendlings in the coming weeks! :D I hate this big change now; it's different changing from primary to high school, i dunno if it's cos we're younger or whatever. but it's strange being the youngest group again.

Kirsty :]

02-09-2009, 16:07

I enrolled at College today lol

My temporary bus pass is a complete mugshot! Haha.. they want £150 for a bus pass! They can stuff that.. I'll just drive and then pay the bus far on the odd occasion I don't drive due to bad weather and that.

I start next Tuesday :) I'm soo excited, I noticed on the register list that there was a guy called Ben Jones in my class, a few years ago I used to speak to a ugy of that name, and last year he left College but said he may go back the next year (being this year) so I'm interested to find out whether or not it's the same guy... how weird would that be though?! Haha

I so wanted to go out tonight... but the weather is absolutely pants, so I think I'm going to have a night in :)

Katy

02-09-2009, 18:02

GLad you both enjoyed College.

I been helping my mam at her school putting her classroom together, but she dropped a cupbard on my leg and now its all cut and is really quite sore.

Tomorrow im going shopping for a party dress when im in #Ireland and i need a bag thats small enough to go as hand luggage only for the flight. I cant afford to put it in the hold!

Im having a night in too as the weathers miserable.

That bus pass sounds similar to mine. I would do that if I could too. We have a new bus company which leaves later in the morning. The route goes all around the houses so to speak though, it takes 10/15 mins to drive there and the bus takes about 35!

I start tomorrow. Had to enrol today, get timetables etc. Mine is an absolute joke! My school have excelled at making me feel like the spare part again. Me and two friends have General Studies at the same time. I'm in a group by myself with a teacher that can't teach and they're in one together with a better teacher. I already have the teacher for some lessons and with the extras I'm going to have to teach myself a quarter of my lessons :( My frees are in ridiculous places too, so many lessons will be a total waste this year.

End of rant lol.

So much for a quiet night in... went to Spoooons :)
Invited Adam for a drink and I planned to ask where I stood, buit I didn't have the courage. So I text him and asked instead, and he replied with "well as you're giving me a lift home tomorrow night (I didn't even knwo that hha) is it ok if we chat about it then?

So I'll finally have closure tomorrow not, good or bad.. at least I'll b out of the dark, and I told him that even if it is bad.. to jsut let me know because I won't let it get in the ay of work, that's not what i'm about. Grr anyways.. had a good night in alllll :)

Good night last night, into Central London to a cocktail bar then Wetherspoon's because the bar was so overpriced. Although we did take advantage of the 2 for 1 but it ended at 8pm.

Bank stuff to deal with today - so boring. Just transferring money really. Typical I forget my money I got from last week though. :lol: Have to go to the post office anyway so there's a bank in the same bit which is handy. This Amazon thing is keeping me busy going to the post office. Although it is annoying I've only got 2 feedback ratings so far, and I've sold 15 things, and I'm sure most of the items have got there by now.

We had to pay for ours if we were over 18 when we started, but only 20 pound for the whole year!!!!

It's a service bus, but I had to apply to the LEA first of all to see fi I qualify, and if I did they would pay half.. if I didn't I could still get a bus pass... but it would cost me £300... absolute joke

College for me is complete chaos nothing wrong with the subjects just we don't have designated rooms. Like today what happend was i only had IT and we went into the new IT room down in the beauty therapy corridor, and half of the computers wouldnt work so the tutor said we could go to the cafe for 15 minutes and she came in and said it was cancelled cause the IT man went mental at her cause we apparently weren't ment to be in it cause the network wasn't set up so it got cancelled for today.

First week at college and i have to say so far i'm loving it! Luckily there is someone I know in every one of my classes apart from Sociology but got talking to two girls today so that's all good! It's so strange calling teachers by their first names though! And i'm actually quite happy with my student ID card picture. Already been told about exam dates! First ones are in January so have been told about which books to buy for revision so shall be scouring ebay at some point!

Thats what i found the weirdest at colllege, i am in contact with the majority of myu teachers and i left two years agio!

I have had a great night, some friends of the family came over and we had a catch up, not seen them in a long time so theres been a lot of talking, had a few cans and a curry., Was really great. Very tired now though as i was up quite early.

THink it will be a shock when i go back to Uni though, 9 AM lectures

Abigail

Kirsty that is a lot for a bus pass up here I pay £45 a month for a bus pass but a student one is £38. In the new year students can apply for travel expenses so they get extra funding to pay for the bus pass.

I'm feeling like Dr Doolittle only the animals hate me. The old couple up the stairs are away in Berlin until next week and I'm looking after their cat. (The mad one who hides under the sofa and has to be brushed every day) and my sister is away to Santa Ponsa today for a week and I have to look after the foul mouth asbo Parrot.

Still ahven't really been told where I stand, but we're gettign there.. basically he doesn't want to even think about getting married, moving in and kids (I hope he knows I'm only 18 lmao) but on the other hand.. he doesn't wnat to just.. chuck me, like he has done with most girls, he says it's different this time. So we're waiting for the rota to go up tomorrow, and when we're both off we're going out for the day so we can sort it out and finally decide on what we both want out of this... whatever it is.

Only time will tell lol

I have such a bad pain in the bottom left hand side of my tummy :( it kills when I sit down or walk around, I'm only ok if I sit still... haha which is not going to help because I've got work tonight!

Hannalene, just think.. all the studying will pay off in the long run :) and then you can watch as much silly tv in your pjs as you want :D

Guess what Im doing today?
Dancing! Yet again, I need to go in so I can do this cartwheel with a woman who hasnt been in a while, I need to do it on her which Ive never done before cos usually its people doing them on me
The tomorrow we have a rehersal for 6 hours for the whole show.
Its 1 week today!!!

Oohhh are they back cartwheels?? Where you kind of link arms, and then they cartwheel over your back??

I know how you feel witht he stupid amount of rehearsals for the dancing show, I get like that too

Abbie

05-09-2009, 12:22

No not those ones, I dont mind them.

Its hard to describe, you go in front of them like your doing a normal cartwheel but you grab their thighs as they are in second bending a little, so basically your head is between their legs for a little but not very long

Kirsty :]

05-09-2009, 12:24

oohhhhhh I know! Haha
We don't tend to do them quite as much, we mainly use the back cartwheels.

Just think.. ina week it'll all be done :)

Abbie

05-09-2009, 12:25

I know I dont want the show to be over though cos its our last well, well the 4 of us that are leaving. So im excited but sad at the same time

Hopefully the studying has all paid off Hannalene. You can put your feet up now and just relax :)

My day's been ok so far...in a bit of a mood though I don't know why. I ended up just making an outburst at my parents. I really didn't mean too and felt so bad afterwards. I feel really ungrateful and very bad about it. I take them for granted so so much and I don't mean too.

I'm looking at masters progams in America. I would love to do forensic anthropology or human identification at the Body Farm in Tennessee but have no idea how to go about it or how I would get funding.

Wow that sounds amazing! Keep looking into it

I thought there would be a handful of places in America that did an MSc in forensic anthropology but there's hundreds :eek: I'm not even going to attempt to go through them all.

An appointment with my tutor is what I need when I get back to see where the best places are.

I really want to go abroad and do a masters so I can combine study and travel.

My friend has just gone to New Zealand for a year to do a PhD in women's somethingorother, which kinda inspired me to look further than Queen Mary's.

I would love to travel and study at the same time. I hope I get to :p

Not done alot, jsut been to work today. Got myself stuck in a box, fun times haha

I'm off to the doctor place now, I've had a pain in my tummy for 2 days striaght now, but it's that painful it hurts when I laugh/cough or even try to go to the loo.. so that's not even happening (sorry for the details), my Nan is scared it could be my appendix.. I don't think it is.. but we're going to get it checked out anyways, cos I'm losing sleep and everything over it.

Kirsty :]

Weird few days, out of hours GP made me do a urine sample :( turned out my kidneys are infected.. so I've been like banned to drinking just water and I'm on antibiotics.

Today, well Adam asked me if he could come to town with me, and thena sked if I wanted to get some food too, so we went to this restaurant and town and it was nice, he paid for me too which was nice of him.. and then I dropped him home and nothing. He mentioned nothing about the whole situation. So I text him when I got in letting him know that I want to know where I stand now, because it's not fair being left in the dark. So he said that when he gets back from the cinema he'll text me to go over for a cuppa and we'll sort it. I just want closure now if nothing else.

I start College tomorrow :D really excited.. but also quite nervous.
I go back to dancing too so I'm excited about that... I love dancing :) it's my lease of stress haha

Abigail

07-09-2009, 22:32

Good luck for college tomorrow :)

I've done the front garden today. Cut the grass, dug a tree up, cut back some of the plants. Got to finish off the egdes tomorrow and prune the rose bush. Then to start on the back garden. A sit on lawn mower would be helpful.

Kirsty :]

07-09-2009, 22:36

Thanks :) I never knew you liked gardening Abigail!

Abigail

07-09-2009, 23:06

I don't, I avoid it at all costs. There was this thought when I woke up this morning that thought I should cut the grass. Turned into a four hour gardening saga culminating in backache and blisters.

Good luck for your first day at college tomorrow Kirsty.

I'm feeling quite bad about last night. Went to a pub quiz and we were coming back up a road in the pitch black. I was walking behind my friends and just decided to run off.. I don't know why :confused: anyway, I reappeared 20 minutes later as they were about to phone the police. I just started crying when I returned and I don't know why the hell I did it. I feel so bad about it now. I just kept saying how sorry I was and I guess that's all I can do.

18 days until uni.

You are doing the right thing with Adam, and I hope that your kidney infection goes away quickly with the medication. All the best for your first day at college :)

Hope your feeling better soon Kirsty and you enjoy college.

I was doing up the boat yesterday, and need to finish it today, still need to sand the trailer and buy some metal paint for it. The boat bottom is completly done though which is good. Today more of the same.

Kirsty :]

08-09-2009, 21:58

College was fun :) I really enjoyed it, made friends with a group of girls on my course who are lovely :)

Came home,went to work to give Adam his jacket cos I didnt go over last night after as it was too late when he got back from the cinema.
So we went to Spoons for some food because he had 2 hours break, and I was like... so who did you go to the cinema with then? Thinking it was family, and he turns around and says "oh.. Melissa, it was supposed to be a double date thing with Jonny and Carey cos they;re into that stuff... but they didn't even go". I knew exactly what I had to do at that point.

So we had our food.. then he brought up the conversation, saying that he likes the way things are, going out for food, watching films... and "getting woken up from films..." but I said, well that makes no sense.. I can't do that. So yeah.. it's over. I feel completely torn, no idea how the hell I will face him on Friday, but it's for the best... his sake and mine.

Went back to dancing tonight aswell, that was fun :)

Perdita

09-09-2009, 06:00

Sorry that the relationship with Adam did not turn out the way you would have liked, Kirsty, but at least you know where are you are with him. Be friendly with him on Friday but resist going out with him after work or so, you probably need to keep a bit of a distance for a while until you feel less upset. xx

Siobhan

09-09-2009, 11:51

I had some great news this morning at 8am. My nephew phone to tell me his wife is pregnant she is only 12 days late so it will be June before the baby arrives. Plenty of time for Great Aunt Kathleen to get her knitting needles out. :D

:cheer: Congrats great aunt Kath.

My sister is going for her first scan today. Mum thinks its twins, I've got a bad feeling about it though. I hope I'm wrong but I have something niggling me. She's already had two miscarriages.

What a sh1t Kirsty but at least you know were you stand and you can move on. I had some great news this morning at 8am. My nephew phone to tell me his wife is pregnant she is only 12 days late so it will be June before the baby arrives. Plenty of time for Great Aunt Kathleen to get her knitting needles out. :D

Congratulations Kath. What brilliant news :)

Really sorry to hear about Adam, Kirsty but college will allow you to meet plenty of other guys so it's good that you decided to move on. I think you made the right decision. You can find someone who really appreciates you :)

17 days until I go to uni. Getting a bit sad now about leaving all my friends but I'm excited about going as well. I quit my paper round next week. I've been doing it every day for the past six years and I've really got to know all my customers. I think I'm going to shed a tear when I've delivered my last paper :o

Perdita

10-09-2009, 06:06

All part of growing up and learning to deal with the end of situations, Davey, but you will always have the good and perhaps sometimes not so good memories. I am sure your customers always appreciated you delivering their papers in all weathers. Well done xx

Getting close then! I have just over a week, till i go back, i have had such a good time at home, i dont want to go back! But its my last year so i will enjoy it when i get there!

Got to go and change some money into Euros today for Ireland tomorrow. Im excited, going to be a good 5 days, going Mayo till Sunday and the Dublin to the Tuesday then back home, and then some eejit has arranged a meeting in Bangor on Wednesday which i am not happy about as it will cost a fortune and is a real pain to get there just in a day.

Today looking after dog who has already chewed through my shoe. Then i need to pack.

Abigail

10-09-2009, 10:06

I'm going back next Saturday and I can't wait. Had a dream about uni last night which was random.

Kirsty :]

10-09-2009, 11:07

Thanks everyone for your support :) I hope in time I will see it that way too, but for now I'm still completely confused, and I guess kind of hoping that he'll have a sudden poke in the eye and realise what he may have gone and thrown away? Because it was fun, and enjoyable, but I can't do that on a friends "with benefits" level.. when it's so completely past that anyways.

Anyways!
College is still going good... getting a bit scared at the thought of managing the restaurant at College as part of our assignments, but everyone has to do it so it should be ok.

Didn't finish until half 7 last night so I met my friends in Newport for student night after College... was a good night :) it was kind of sad because it was our last student night out together before they all go away and that, but I got slightly drunk and sang my heart out on Karaoke... oh dear haha

Plans for today since I have a day off is to go into town with my friend for a bit of a catch up, and then I'm going back to Slimming World later :D I can't wait!

Then dancing... I'm giving dancing a 1 month trial, to see if I can cope with the work load of College and work and dancing because I really want to do well this year, and I know dancing will be my fall down. So by the end of this month I may be leaving dancing :/ which is sad... but for the best if the work load is too much for me to cope with.

I have just watched GErmany hammer England in the Euro womens Cup final, it was a good game, 6 2 in the end which is unfair as the england ladies played brilliantly, against the best in the world.

Perdita

10-09-2009, 19:10

Thanks for the update on the football,wanted to watch but OH hates any sport and we, sorry, he is watching some old war movie with Richard Attenborough when he was in his 30s by the look of it (sigh). No Emmerdale or EastEnders tonight by the look of it :(

Katy

10-09-2009, 19:59

It was a good game, i am not an England fan in anything, (IRELAND) but i so wanted them to do well, unfortunatley the champions proved to difficult. Im looking forward to getting back to uni so i can start playing again! I miss my footy.

Hope its not to longer night. I am all packed now i have 5 days worth of stuff in a little bag for handluggage only, im well impressed, although my dad said my outfit was chavvy which i am not agreeing with, it may be the silent treatment for a bit!

Abigail

10-09-2009, 20:52

I'm feeling slightly confused. A friend (the guy I was going to move in with) has deleted me as a friend on Facebook. I'm not going to get into bed over it but we were good friends and I don't understand why he deleted me :searchme:

The students union has been censored. It was only a matter of time until the controversial president was censored :D Shame they couldn't have done it over something that would cause a storm instead of a piece of writing for the international students handbook.

I'm watching the Proms and trying to relax but I'm a bit tense.

Kirsty :]

10-09-2009, 22:00

Aww well done Perdita :D

Abigail, maybe the guys facebook got hacked?... People are into that lately.

Omg what a day!
Had a day off from College today,so me and my friend went into town and I parked..... right against a pillar, don't even know how I managed it but as I tried to straighten up my car scarped all against the pillar and has a small dent :( so I left it as it was and there was only one person that could get us out of the mess... Adam.
So I kind of had to go and face the music and ask him to move my car for me.. he found it highly amusing.. as has everyone else I've spoken to today lol, but he managed to get the car out without even touching the pillar! But yeah.. felt kind of awkward. Meh.

Went back to Slimming World too.. I am sooo determined to do good :) I don't feel happy and bubbly like I usually do, I'm hoping this will help me loads.

EDIT: Hahaa.... pics of the damage are on my Facebook... courtesy of Cat, who decided it would be funny to take the pictures :lol:

10-09-2009, 23:15

I had an eventful day.
I went to give blood finally for the second time - it was very unsucessful.
I mean they have told me I have tiny veins and they kept saying I have a tiny waist and tiny wrists, I agree about the wrists but not the waist.
Anyway so they got the needle in and I was squeezing really hard but it just wasnt working. They moved it a bit quite a few times so it became uncomfortable. In the end they only got half a bag cos they had to stop since it would start and then stop again cos the small veins I have. They only have 15 mins per person and they said it wasnt fair on me either as she was having to move it a bit to flow.
Anyway got the plaster on went to get a cuppa and the nurse asked me if I was ok and she had to change the dressing cos it bled quite a bit the whole plaster was red. She told that it will bruise quite a bit cos of everything that happened.

I mean apart from a bit of a sore arm, I feel like its just a shame cos the nurse said its gonna be a hit and miss thing, since everything was ok the first time she said they must have got bang in the middle of the vein but this time she thinks, cos I have small veins she must have got the side and so it wasnt working. And its a shame cos giving blood really doesnt affect me, my arm is never too bad and I was even dancing tonight lol.
Well I will try again in January

Whoa Perdy and Trin well done are you leaving home then Trin.

Not such a great day at work, yesterday the lecturers had a meeting with HR and a union rep as the college has decided to phase out the teaching of body, repair and refinishing over the next three years, which means 4 lecturers and three techs having to be re-deployed in other areas.

I won't be leaving home :eek: Distance learning and 3 modules on campus.

I will still be working full-time, but I will have leave to go to Southampton 4 times over the year.

I had dancing too, and explained to my dance teahce rthat I'm giving dancing a 1 month trial, to see if I can cope with work, and the work load from College, and if not then I'm leaving... but she was very understanding and said that I have to do whats best for me basically, which I was pleased about.

I'm finding it difficult to keep things together this week, I feel really low.
All my friends are leaving this weekend, I'm starting to really dislike College already, and I'm still finding this whole "situation" with Adam really difficult, which is going to get worse when all my friends have left and I can't even talk to any of them about it lol. I feel lost.

I thought it was a voucher for 25 Euro but the prize is actually ready made up and I now got a nice pair of earrings, a large mug, a small coaster, a large coaster and a kitchen clock where the hours are made up of tiny little ducks and you can stick notes under them as the clock is a magnetic memo clock :D What a nice surprise as I am not very lucky in these things most of the time. :cool:

Good couple of days. On Monday went to Nandos with some secondary school friends. Hilarious times. Yesterday went to secondary school and saw some teachers.

I have been in Ireland since Friday got back late Tuesday evening and then went to bangor to drop some stuff off yesterday, so its been a lot of travelling!
Had a amazing time with the family in Ireland though, ive missed them, a bit too much drinking though! My poor liver.

It was a great surprise though, my aunt had no idea.

Now just need to get ready to go back to uni.

Abigail

17-09-2009, 20:12

I've had a busy day. Been to the dentist to get my brace altered as it didn't fit properly. Also seen my granddad who said he'll give me some money for uni. My sister will go ape if she finds out because they've pretty much disowned her for being pregnant, presumably because she's not married :rolleyes:

It really annoys me that my grandparents throw money at me for my education yet now that my sister is pregnant they're not interested in their great grandchild because of the circumstances. I really don't see a problem; she's in a stable relationship (4years), own house, own car, well paid job. But she's not married. Seriously, what difference does it make? Our parents aren't married and are still together nearly 25 years later.

I'm not going to turn the money down, my granny will be offended but it makes me feel bad when they give me hundreds of pounds spending money for a holiday, a few months later I get another four hundred quid, money for my birthday a few months after that, then christmas money. Not forgetting the textbooks they buy me. I am grateful, I really am but it's just not fair that my sister gets nothing because she chose not to go to uni.

And I know Nic will ask me if they're giving me money. Do I lie and say no to spare her feelings or say yes and rub it in that she's not good enough for them (as they see it)?

Anyway, got my brace in now and it feels weird. I keep slurping like an old woman because the saliva is collecting on the plate.

Finishing off the packing tomorrow then it's away to uni on Saturday.

Bad, bad day. A property deal went sour many years ago and eventually got sorted about 3 years ago. The solicitor stated that the insurance company would pay up which I was so happy about at the time. Got a letter today from the solicitor that the highest court in the country had had a ruling in a similar case to mine and had ruled in favour of the insurance company and I am now going to be broke for the next 2 years to pay back nearly £4000. :angry: :crying: Luckily I can pay in installments and the solicitor is not charging any interest. Still, plenty of people are a lot worse off than myself, I have to bear that in mind.

So I have a guy coming round to watch House on Monday lol. And I was talking to a nice girl from B'ham for a bit. Met various other people. It was the free white T-shirt party tonight. All in all a very good evening. :D

My flatmates are quite awesome. We had a pre-lash before we went out it was hilarious. I'm just sitting here now with my vodka and coke that I didn't quite finish before we went out. Good times. :p

Sam is supposed to be staying at mine tonght but he hasn't made it back :hmm: No sure if I should wait up for him or let him sleep outside or at some other lass's place. He's really drunk and can't understand where I am, even though he's known for the past six months where I'm living.

Oh well, not my fault if its cold outside tonight.

i was meant to back yesterday but we had a change of plan i came home to wathc the football (which we were robbed) after the 24 hour race, we had very good result but i am very tired now. I did the shift sailing at 2 till 4 in the morning.

Another early start with the train going back to bangor at 6 tomorrow morning!

Im quite looking forward to going back and this weekend has been amazing!

Kirsty :]

Did Sam sleep outside after Abigail?

omg 2 til 4.. Katy are you crazy!? haha

Just had work 12-7 todfay but it was quiet so I was allowed to go at 6:5 instead :) feeling slightly better about everything lately.

I'm getting into the whole slimming world thing and depsite a bad week I lost 3lbs.. I need to keep it up now and stop messing around though if I'm going to keep going!
College is ok too... don't really liek the way one tutor teaches, but I just research myself so that I gain better knowledge,

And I've made the decision to leave dancing at the end of the month, I was going to trial my workload and see if I can cope, but its just best if I leave. I've been dancing since I was 5, and I love it.. but I just feel like the doors to that era have closed and it's time to move on, focus on my studies alot more, so that I can have a good career in the future. It will be sad... but they won't get rid of me for long because as soon as my sister is old enough I'm signing her up :) she may like it.. she may not, but it's always nice to try something, I'm glad I was signed up when I was 5 :)

I'm feeling really philosophical tonight ahah

I was rather drunk when I wrote that post :p He made is back at about 4am, we talked for a bit then had a few hours sleep. I set the fire alarm off at 8am :ninja: Stupid toaster.

Sam went to church, I went back to bed then we went into Hanley to Spoons. Food was awful :sick: Didn't drink anything as I still felt rough after last night's heavy sesh.

All I want now is my bed.

I'm sharing a flat with three other people, one lass has moved her stuff in and left before I got here and another moved in yesterday. Not seen the third girl. I'm thrilled to bits to be living with three girls :rolleyes: There was a reason I was moving in with two guys. Justine seems ok. My bathroom is huge compared to her's.

My room is on the end of the block, sideways on to a housing estate. The kids are really pissing me off because they keep kicking a football at the wall and window. There's a perfectly good grassed playing area on the other side of the road and the park 10 seconds away. Tw*ts.

Not been a bad day. Fairly ordinary... 4 days til uni almost.. i desperately want to go now. I've been soo bored.. I feel like I'm ready to move on with my life :)

But because I am so excited for uni, I've started getting really paranoid like what if I go and they said there was a mistake and there wasn't a place for me after all :ninja: I want to get there so I stop feeling so paranoid! But 4 more days to get through!

Abigail

21-09-2009, 23:50

I really do hate kids. Seriously, do they have to kick a football at my wall repeatedly for half an hour??

Had a rubbish day. Woke up feeling sick and really down. I was talking to Sam last night and started crying so he offered the most useless advice. "Plan something and do it." That doesn't help my situation. He doesn't help my situation and I hate it because he's the best friend I've had. I know I need to make my own way but he offers me so much security that I feel I'm pushing him away when I need him.

He rang earlier to check on me, which was really sweet but I kinda didn't want to talk to him. It always feels like I run back to him when I get scared or something happens and I don't want to do that. I know exactly why I'm doing it but I just can't help myself.

*Sighs*

Anyway, I'm changing course. As per usual I had to see half a dozen people to get one sheet of paper :rolleyes: Disorganisation is this universities middle name.

Kirsty :]

22-09-2009, 00:07

Davey, keep yourself busy, time will fly by :) which Uni are you going to again?

Abigail, I really hope you feel better soon :)

Had a good day at College :) I feel kind of on top of it at the moment which I'm loving.. but I don't want to get too happy about it just incase I lose it, and fall behind. The only down part is that i don't really feel like I'm clicking with many people, which I don't usually find difficult to do, maybe it's the age? I don't know.. or maybe I'm just focused on my studies this year.

Had to buy a new wiper today as my car goes for MOT tomorrow.. I am sooo hoping it passes, but I don't think it will. I got some T-Cut too for the big scratch in my car :( I didn't know how to do it though, so when I got home from College, Adam offered to have a go for me, so I took the car over but it was going to take hours to do, so I told him not to worry and that I'd do it myself in the week.

I've been fine all week without him at work, out of sight out of mind and all that, and it's all gone down the pan again. I understood and appreciated that he didn;t want anything serious, and never did, but I wish he would appreciate that i'm finding it very difficult to just "be his friend". I think I've come to the decision that I can't be his friend, it's not what I want.. and he got what he wanted, so now it's my turn. Though I don't think it would bother him in the slightest.. just as the last 4 months haven't, I think I need to do it for my own good. I've thought about his needs and wants too much lately, I need to start thinking of myself now (as selfish as that sounds) and the only way to do this is to look for a new job, and also to keep him as my boss... nothing else.

Abigail

22-09-2009, 00:10

Kirsty, its a shame you feel you have to look for another job because of him. Men can be pigs when it comes to women.

Is there any way you can have different shifts so you won't see him as much?

Kirsty :]

22-09-2009, 00:16

We'll be closed soon anyways, but I do need to get away from him, or I'll never get over him, and that'll end up in me looking and sounding like a complete plonker all the time.
He's assistant manager, and hegets 2 days off out of 7... so I'm constantly working with him.

His friend was telling me the other day how heartless he can be, but that he is in an awkward situation and has alot on his plate at the moment.... but what? He never tells or really told me anything. I can't read minds.

Abbie

22-09-2009, 00:29

Did my first shift on my own today, it was a little scary but it was good being on my own :D

Ive also been shopping and got stuff for uni :D Im excited BUT worried about the people now

I am sorry, I laughed when I read the first sentance of your post - what will you be like when you are a little old lady if you are so grumpy now!

I hope that you fell better soon, though :rolleyes:

Kirsty you are right to look for another job, the sooner the better, lol

Kirsty - I don't think your selfish. We all need to think about ourselves once in a while and it seems to me that you will be doing the right thing.

Trying to keep myself busy today - putting songs on my iphone, might start packing, started reading for my course now as well so I feel like I'm on top of things after freshers.

My mum's cutting my hair later. Got a bit too long again :D

I have to agree with Abigail on this one.. we have a few in my area who think that my back wall is the best place to kick a football at til 12 at night.. I had to tell them to go as I was trying to get the kids to sleep...

All day Saturday, all day Sunday and yesterday when they came in from school for a few hours they were kicking a football at the wall and window. There's plenty of places to kick a football around, including a football sized piece of grass outside my window and the park across the road.

I have no problem with them playing, I just don't want to hear the constant thud against my window.

Trinity

22-09-2009, 14:09

I guess I am lucky, no one around here would dream of kicking a football against someone elses house.

At 12 pm!!!

Where are their parents?

Who knows... I think I am the only parent to give a damn where my kids are at in my area. There is a 4 year old across from me who informed me the other day I wasn't the boss of her and proceed to tell everyone to **** off...

Trinity

22-09-2009, 15:04

:eek: OMG!

In my street I can stop kids and say, don't do that again it is dangerous or whatever and they just don't do it again.

If I am in a strop about something I might say, 'if you do that again I will tell your mum'

I have not had any of them come back with cheek.

Siobhan

22-09-2009, 15:10

The majority of the people/kids are really nice but there is just some who bring the place down. this little girl in particular.. and as she is the same ages as Ben, they are usually together.. but even Ben is getting annoyed with her now... she swears, runs off and throws a wobbler if she doesn't get her own way. Her most recent thing is getting Ben in trouble.. so I try not to let him be around her but they are only 4 years old so there is not much that can be done (can't even talk to the parents cause they don't care)

Uni is going well, I think. Off home next Thursday afternoon though. :D I don't have any lectures/practicals on Monday or Friday next week! It changes every week though but on most days - apart from the ones where we have half an hour graduate development classes I finish by 4. :) Although I only have about three sessions a day! So surprised at that! I need to go to the library and print my timetable out though...

I'm having one night on one night off this Fresher's week lol (as in drinking). A flatmate has some friends in tonight and they are getting drunk playing spoons. I did sit in there for a bit but they seem to be getting into it and I have an early start so I'll watch House (yay!) then go to bed. :p

Kirsty :]

22-09-2009, 22:46

My poor brum failed it's MOT :( £260 worth of repair! I'm not even going to see payday this week :(

Also, College is feeling really slow, it just doesn't seem to be picking up, and it's sooooo dragged out!

Went to Bingo tonight with my Mum and aunty... didn't win anything though :( dangnabbit! Could've done witha few grand to fix this car of mine lol

Feeling the way you do, I think you should go and see the doctor, he might be able to help in another way or could help speed up you seeing a councillor. I hope you feel better soon xx

23-09-2009, 16:01

I feel like my life's going down the drain =( it's really hard to explain but i feel so not me (if that makes sense) got an appointment with the doctor on thursday to see if i really need to see a councellor i don't know wether to cancel it and leave it or just to go and wait a whole lot of months to see one. I don't know wether i'll feel worse or what :S i hate feeling like this. :crying:

Tannie, you should definitely see the doctor.

You should also make sure that you are eating properly, getting enough sleep, drinking plenty of water and getting outside for a a walk when it is daylight. Sometimes the simple things can help.

How is college going? Are you managing to keep on top of everything? Is the panic under control?

Do not be too hard on yourself either, you may have a viral infection of another illness that is making you feel low.

Take care

Sleeping's hard for me at the moment has been since the summer holidays :crying: . Eating i'm fine with and same with drinking water. I'm going for walks during the day anyway cause i normally get off the bus in rosyth after college and walk home. Or walk to tesco from college and get the bus to the rail way station and walk home.

College is my worst nightmare at the moment. Modern studies is becoming my worst nightmare is well :crying: . Spoke to my guidance tutor and she said she wasn't sure if i could do another subject instead of it cause of how long we've been into college for. But i'm not sure i can't drop it or i wouldn't have enough hours. So i don't know what's happening on that front. I had a panic attack in Guided study this morning and managed to calm myself down myself before anyone noticed luckily. I was all up for dropping out of college yesterday but my gran's made me see that i'm not a quitter so i'm not going to do that.

Trinity

23-09-2009, 16:16

You are so right not to quit. It might be tough for a while but it is worth it.

Can you get a revision book for modern studies from WHSmiths? The leckie ones are quite good and really summarise the work well. It is worth doing a bit of extra work at home to keep on top of things, too.

I remember having a total mental block about physics when I was at school. I got a revision book and learned all the formula off by heart and after that I was fine.

Modern studies is quite different, I know, but put in a bit of extra work and see how it goes.

Good luck and well done on beating the panic - the more often you do that the more confident you will feel.

Take care

Tannie - I really hope your feeling a whole lot better soon. Seeing a doctor and telling him/her how you feel will definetly help. It's no good keeping things bottled up, as you'll just feel more frustrated inside. Remember that you can always post in this thread and have a rant as well! :)

Whenever I am feeling really down and I do go through phases where I feel awful, walking definetly helps me. There's nothing better than breathing in some fresh air and getting some physical exercise!

As for college, it's good that you haven't given up. Try and keep determined and positive about it and you will do your very best. I echo what Trinity said about maybe getting a revision book from WH Smiths as I hear that they can be really useful. Also, could you possibly speak to your tutor? Maybe they can help you if you feel like it's getting on top of you.

As for my day, I've done some ironing for the first time! :D and my mum was impressed with me. Also accessed my timetable for lectures and I got some passport photos done.

I've had a busy day in officer training then went campaigns collective meeting. There's a few protests coming up in Manchester and London in the next month. I think I'll just go to the one in Manchester, I don't know where I stand on the Stop the War protest.

Shower and bed methinks. I don't think my brain has had to work this hard since April :p

Im trying to think of something to write in their thank you card, I have 3 to write

24-09-2009, 23:05

Oh my ow! My throat is starting to feel all closed up :( it hurts when I eat!

Also... I am so flipping confused right now it's not even funny!!
Got called into work as another waitress bailed, so when I got there Adam was all snappy and was liek "I'm not in the mood today" so I asked why, and he said "I don't wnat to talk about it today, we'll talk about it another day" I asked if it was work and he said it wasn't just work this time... so I got all paranoid thinking maybe I'd annoyed him or something.
Then I asked him againa nd I asked why he couldn't tell me, and he said "because it's deep personal stuff, if I told why.. I would just be telling you"... so he's going to tell me.. but not yet. Grr I'm confused! If I've annoyed him in any way I'd rather jsut know! Not have him messing with my head.. he's done that enough lately!

I know how you feel Abbie. My sister gave me a card today that she designed herself and I was in tears as it was so lovely. She drew a picture of me and her and a heart and then wrote "To David, have a good time, try your best, make lots of friends. I will miss you so much" then put loads of kisses round it.

I've started packing today and went to see my nan and auntie to say goodbye until probably Christmas.

I've just been to Tesco. I've missed late night/early morning taxi rides to buy loads of things I don't need :p

Changed my course today so I'm now doing Forensic Investigation. Slightly apprehensive about it but I need something more challenging than my previous course.

Clubs and society fair tomorrow so I'm going to sign up to the law society and the trampolining club.

I went to our Fresher's fair today. They had a buckaroo, climbing wall and one of those bouncy castle elastic rope catch the plastic square thing. :lol: And some stunt bike guy. Hmm. Was so hot though...and was full of promotors handing out cards. Only good things were the vouchers. MacDonalds's and best of all Dominoes - which expires in June! :D We are getting pizza on Sunday. :p
I Met two girls from my secondary school/college today at the freshers fair! We were never really friends but still very random I had no idea anyone from my college was going to UWE!

Got a couple of guys from my course are coming round Saturday I think, none of us are going to Allstars (£20 event). One is going to a birthday party but nonetheless have some company for part of the evening. We are ordering pizza lol. Maybe watch a film and see if anyone else in the court is having a party. :)

May watch Mock the Week and then go to bed now.
