What's up-date

Haven't posted since that big Ash related ranty post. Well...I tweeted @ashofficial yesterday...and Oh My Days I got a reply. There's a potential all ages Belfast show in the spring. Which is yay in itself, but omg I got a reply! :D

In the real world, I'm doing fine. Winter's a bit hard to adjust to...really if the moon's still up it's still time to be in bed :(

I have to learn to knit again, though. Young Enterprise group, huzzah. Early mornings, sekrit product development, breaktime sales meetings... My company takes everything so seriously. It's amusing.

Seriously though. I got stuck on my ICT coursework today, had the teacher take a look at it...she told me what I was stuck on was beyond A Level, so she didn't help me D:

I enjoy my classes...they're just not what I really want to do. I get pointed looks from the careers teachers every so often. "that's a very difficult career to get started in..." IT'S A RECESSION. Wow >.>
I know, I sound very snippy, but they grind my gears.

I'm tired of being told that I'm not good enough, by people that barely know me; I know they have to be cautious because you can't just say someone's going to get their dream job straight out of uni...but a bit of faith and positivity would be smashing.
So would friends that aren't attention seeking and two faced...or overly clingy. Or wannabe counsellors.

Oh, woe. :P

"It's on your foot?"

My father announced to me that he thinks Colin Morgan has a touch of the gay about him...this would have been amusing had I not been in the middle of lunch. Cue much laughing-into-a-sandwich. Oh dear...oh well. Then, my mother added "Well, I don't know. My gaydar's a little wonky, you see."

"Um...mum? Straight people don't usually *have* gaydar, I think."

On a completely unrelated note I might chop my left foot off. It's been all...ooky, for want of a better word, for months...athlete's foot? Nooo... Nail infections, naah. I've been given tubes of Canesten and a 'good luck'. Remind me not to leave them on top of the cistern again, my brother was quite red faced. He's seen the adverts. ¬__¬

Episode 5 of Merlin tonight, and then maybe a bit of journalling, I got a new Moleskine yesterday :3 They're ridiculous wastes of money, but sooo pretty. I was going to wait until the first of January, but I saw no reason to do so other than convention. So that went promptly out the window.

Then, a Christmas tea par-tay on Monday at Emma's house, I believe. How civilised. Our oven is broken, and it's not likely to be fixed til after Christmas. We can cook in it, but it has to be wedged shut with one of the kitchen chairs. It would be quite comical, if we weren't planning to have, you know, Christmas dinner. Oh dear.

I left school a day earlier than I should have, on Thursday. It involved being threatened by David, and getting my apple taken off me *sadface* then he gave it back. Somewhat odd...but still. He pretty much just showed himself up, tbh; telling me to move to a different lunch table because he couldn't stand the sight of me. How mature. I didn't move, either.

Pfft.

Yargh. Well, I'm not dead, just sleepy. Two weeks...I performed in a musical in the Civic Centre for a week. School hasn't been fantastic, but with small joys in my science classes (I adore physics!) and the English language, it's been bearable.

I went to the library quite a few times :) I ended up getting a book on genetics, one on proof-reading skills (g33k), a book of poetry and I'm sure several other things. I love that library. Also, I've reserved Twilight...I may regret reading it, so I'm not too bothered where I am in the waiting list. I'm just tired of not-having-read it. I don't think I'll like it; I may keep it for the max 3 weeks, except that may be a little sadistic. =/

I also have a head cold, but with plenty of soup I'm sure I'll be fine :3

It's hard getting a balance between getting homework done and doing things I want to do. English Homework, or plan for NaNoWriMo? Clean the bathroom, or make vegetable soup?

I may just sleep for the entire weekend, cos it's pure manky weather here.

*is windswept*

Hmm. The past couple of days, I've just been really down, but I think my mood's starting to pick up again. Spent the morning in bed, considered ringing in sick and getting more sleep, but I got up (goodness knows how, or why) and had a shower, felt somewhat better, had Weetabix, then went to PDSA. Not a very busy day, but it was good craic...except the last hour, I actually considered going into the bathroom/store and putting a plastic bag over my head. Flu-like illnesses make me irrational.

Um. So yeah, I left work then went to the library for an hour, then met my parents there, and went home with them.

Since then I've been reading, writing, listening to music and pacing around my room... =/

Fusion wasn't on tonight so I haven't been up to much, mostly just organising my desk and various files, looking for a soup recipe that I could make tomorrow, in the absence of something better to do. I made butternut squash soup two days ago and froze it. I'm trying to occupy myself, besides I love cooking, and soups are nutritious goodness! =D

*sniffles* *snuggles woobie*

Bring on the cookbooks...
