~ Only the good die young ~
Hmm well here I am once again posting on this ere blog of mine. I think the last time I posted was about a week ago... a lot has happened in that time.
Well I was ill last week with a heavy cold, I felt dreadful and totally out of it, the worst day had to be Tuesday, I was saying all kinds of rubbish that day and just felt ill in general. A day or so later I did start to feel heaps better and in part that was thanks to the day and night capsules that I was taking by Night Nurse. By Friday I was feeling heaps better but I didn't feel 100%. Friday happened to be a special day too, you know, the day I had been looking forward to for ages and I couldn't wait for it to happen to be honest. I had three of my good friends coming up for the weekend!! Caroline, Rich and Pete!!
Caroline and Rich Arrived together and Pete arrived in the early evening, it was an amazing weekend!!
I was so nervous when Caroline and Rich arrived here on Friday afternoon but I wasn't as bad as I thought I would be to be honest. It was nice to finally meet them both and we were very quiet at first which was to be expected I guess....we do seem to say heaps more when we are sat at the computer and Caroline even made a joke about that.
I got some lovely presents off both Caroline and Rich, I was really made up about them and really like them. Rich's presents have taken pride of place in my kitchen and Caroline's have taken pride of place in my bedroom though I will soon be using them both up hehe :o)
Caroline seemed to like what I had gotten her for her birthday, I was a little worried but I didn't need to be as I picked 4 of the items off her wish list of Amazon so I couldn't of really got those wrong :o)
About 20 minutes after they arrived we went off to their hotel so they could check in. They checked in and then we made our way down to the Trafford Centre...the start of our long weekend!!
Got to the Trafford centre and set about our business of looking around the shops and my oh my there is loads of them and many of them I would of liked to have gone in but with limited time it wasn't possible for us to do so we went in a select few. I went there with a lot of cash with the intention of buying something expensive or loads of things but after my time in there (two sessions during that day) I only ended up with some books and a CD and a book for Caroline. Not what I had in mind because I got myself a fair bit of cash and wanted to spend it but nothing really caught my eye and I didn't want to buy something for the sake of buying something if you know what I mean.
For lunch (which was about 4pm) we had a nice pizza at Pizza hut which was really nice, I liked that a lot!!
After we ate we went and had another look in some shops before walking to get the Shuttle bus to Stretford so we could get the Tram to Piccadilly. We were stood for ages waiting for that bus and it was so cold outside and there was me in a this fleece jacket wishing that I had worn a coat lol. We had a laugh whilst waiting for the bus and took a couple of pictures which I will post over my next few blogs as your only allowed to post one picture per blog entry :os
got the bus into Stretford before getting on the tram, I must admit that I didn't really like that tram journey, I was being thrown around all over the place and I suffer bad travel and motion sickness so I didn't like it one bit lol. We eventually got to Piccadilly - rather late but at least we got there before heading back to the tram station to get a tram back to Stretford.
Once we got back to the Trafford Centre we went back in for some more looking around the shops before rich and Pete went off to put Pete's bag in rich's car whilst we had something to eat. Whilst they were away Caroline and I had a look around some shops before they came and found us. Then we made our way to Frankie and benny's for something to eat, it was nice in there and I had been looking forward to going there since I saw their menu on the net. I ended up getting a starter that I didn't like and thus wasting it lol... I can't remember what it was called lol...hmm maybe that is bad but it was horrible anyway. For my main course I had the classic cheese burger with fries and I liked that and ate a load of that and for dessert I had a vanilla milkshake which was really nice and tasty. It only worked out at £20 each which was a bargain I thought. Left there just after 11pm and made our way back up to Blackburn, came back to my house and found my dad drunk and passed out on the blow up beds that Pete was sleeping on over the weekend. Made plans for the next day, played with Lucky and then Caroline and Rich left to go back to their hotel.
The next morning Rich and Caroline came around just after 11am and we made our way to town for something to eat. We ended up in KFC and I didn't eat much, I mainly picked at the food.Ii was hungry but I just didn't feel too well from the day before from thetravelingg and the time I spent on those horrible trams. After we or should I say they?..Hadd eaten we had a look around some of the shops and then bumped into my dad lol. Then made our way to Vue cinema. We bought our tickets and then sat and had a drink. I had the most amazing milkshake that I have ever tried and the most expensive too I must point out, it was almost £5 for one!! But it was so nice so that kind of made up for the price of it hehe. Once we finished our drinks we bought snacks for the film and made our way in....we ended up seeing the new Adam sandler movie called click (I just had to check as I keep forgetting lol) it was so funny!! I wanted to see something funny and I wasn'disappointeded with that film. Once we left there we came back to my house for an hour or so before Caroline and Rich went back to their hotel to get changed for the evening. I then got changed after messing around for ages, I wore a really nice outfit that looked amazing and then we set off to meet Caroline and Rich at their hotel and of course I was driving and Pete sat in the front with me which was heaps better than having my dad sat with me shouting at me all the time like he normally does.
Got the the meal and only my mum and step dad made it because my brother got stuck in Manchester and my cousin didn't come because my brother couldn't make it. my other brother and his family weren't coming because they are saving so they can buy a house so it was just the seven of us. The meal went well and all the food was nice and the coversation was good and funny at times, I was so glad to have my closest family and friends together and everyone looked nice in their outfits too and my dad was well behaved for once lol.
Once we left there we all went up to my mums club house where she lives and had a drink and were joined by someone who fancies me....I don't want to seem rude or anything but if he is the best I can attract then I might as well become a nunn now lol....not that I am looking anyway as the person I wanted well the person I want isn't in my life anymore but that isn't for here.
Left there just before midnight and was glad because all the smoke in there was making me feel ill :os
Drove back via Caroline and rich's hotel and came home and went to bed!! Couldn't sleep just like the night before IuI i think I managed to get a little more sleep than the night before and I sure needed it. I woke up feeling so ill though :os It wasn't a nice feeling I can tell thee now. My head was banging all over and when I movedIiI i felt like I wanted to be sick. After twenty minutes of sitting in bed trying not to move I had to drag myself into the bathroom and into the shower, all I could think of was I didn't have time to be ill as it was the last day that my friends were going to be here. I sat on the floor of the shower for over thirty minutes and felt worried when I stood up and saw the clock, I hadn't put the clock back an hlikelIkI i was meant to so it was a hour fast but luckily I soorealizeded.
I managed to get ready and drink loads of water, I then went downstairs and took painkillers and had abig drink of troipicana and started to feel a little better which was good as it was so the wrong time for me to be ill that was for sure. By the time Caroline and Rich arrived I felt heaps better.
We went off to bowl down in the bowlplex inside the building where the cienma is. We had two games and Rich won them boIhI i came last on the first game by a few points and I was third in the second game. I would of loved to have had another game or two but time wasn't on our side. We had something to eat, played some car and gun games before making our way back to my house. Once back at my house we took some pics, said our goodbyes (hugged etc) and Caroline and Rich left us.
Then Pete and I went back down to the cinema for a milkshake hehe. I was driving and we called and got petrol on the way. We played car games again and gun games and then made our way back to my house so we could pick up Pete's bag, my dad and dog so I could drive us part of the way to Manchester. The traffic was not too bad but worse than we allowed for but we managed to get Pete to the train station 10 minutes before his train...hugs all around before Pete left us and we made our way to get something to eatIaI i was feeling sick which was a combinationtravelingling in the back seat and not much food during the day.
I was worn out when I got home, I just edited the pictures and talked to Pete for an hour when he got home. I then watched TV and went to bed.
All in all it was an amazweekendened!! It was great to meet Caroline and Rich and hope to do it again. We all got on as well as we do online, I did worry we might not but we all got on better than I expected which was amazing. I can't wait to see them again, it was just such a shame we all live so far apart. I must think of a time wIeI i can see them again, I will hopefully get to go and visit Caroline IuI i don't know wyetyItI i will have to speck to here about that. Would be nice to go and visit and go out maybe once and just sit and watch DVDs or something. I have plans to see Pete next Feb when my mum and step dad artravelingng down t0 that area for something else so that is easy. I hope to see Caroline before then but we will have to wait to see how things go!!!
i turn 24 tomorrow, it only seems like yesterday that I was 17 lol. I still feel 17 and I act about 14 so it is all goId. i may be an adult but I feel like I am 17 though at tiIes i do act older but not in a old person way. It's jIst i can talk to people a lot older than me and get on with them and they don't think of me as only being 23. I don't talk to people younger than meIas i wouldn't know what to say to them, I get on with people older than me and I think it that way.
Turning 24 tomorrow doesn't really changed anything for me, maybe it should and maybe it will but I don't know what that yet. I will have to see Iow i feel in the mornIng i guess!! All I knowIis i will be emotional but I always am on my birthday and I don't know why lol. I wonder if everyone is like that or if it is just me?!!
I have been looking at things in my life of late but I don't think getting a year older or having a different age will change things for me. Someone said to me I will be almost "mid twenties" and that never crossed my mind but what is wrong with being mid twenties? It is scary (for me now) to think my next big birthday is 30 but that is six years off right now but the way time flies it will be here before I know it if I am not careful!!
I don't have any expectations about tomorrow, actually I will busy and will be for the next month. I have my birthday funweekendened and am still tired from it...we all are from what I have been told by my friends!! But the tiredness is worth it after the fun I had at weekend!!

Don't ask me why
hmm I can't think of what I have or haven't said in my past posts because I am ill right now with a heavy cold. I do feel heaps better than I did yesterday but I am still pretty ill right now.
We had our new carpet fitted on Saturday and it looks amazing. We had to go out so we left the carpet fitters here and came back about 6pm and there was an amazing looking carpet on the floor. The dog loves it and keeps walking on it. It is really thick and the most amazing blue colour. When I picked it, it looked slightly darker than it is but it was dark in the place where we got it from so it explains it. It looks amazing down, I was worried it would be a bit too light but it is just right and I am more than pleased with it. It is a very thick carpet and under it we have the best underlay that money can buy and that is very thick too so it is like walking on air when you walk on it.
The decorator came and did the ceiling in my living room and it looks amazing. You can't see any of the joins and we are all pleased with that. The only problem is it shows up the dodgy wall paper so we have decided to strip the walls and have the whole room decorated in a few weeks time. Also getting a carpet because I have laminate flooring in there and it has been down about a year but some of it has started to go all dodgy at the edges so it looks bad so I said we might as well have a carpet put down on top of it. I want a nice warm feel in there like I have done with this room but I don't want the same colours. I think I am going to go with terrocoter and creams with maybe a red carpet like in here.
I have already picked a carpet for my bedroom. it is dark lilac colour from the same place that we got the carpet for the hall, stairs and landing though I love the carpet on the landing so much I was thinking of having a piece put in my bedroom lol. I have always wanted a nice lilac colour but now seeing that carpet I am very tempted by it.
I started to come down with a cold on Sunday afternoon and I wasn't pleased because I have so much that I am meant to be doing this week but can't do it because of being ill. I was so rough yesterday, I think that was the peak of it. So I got some day and night nurse capsules and took the night ones and slept for 10 hours straight. I am still worn out so with some luck I will get some sleep sometimes today as I only have two days to get back as much health as I can. I have some day nurse capsules in me now and will take my next lot with my lunch and with some luck I will feel ten times better than I do now on Friday. I won't be taking any on Friday as they have a strange effect on me and I don't want to be zoned out on Friday when my friends are here. With some luck I will only need some painkillers and they can pull me through the day. As long as I get my 8 hours sleep on Friday night I will be fine all day Saturday. Having a cold is tiring so I need to get as much sleep as I can each night otherwise I won't be any fun to be around at the weekend.
God I am tired :os
Was doing stuff round the house all day Sunday. Going through everything and sorting out the rubbish and getting rid of it because I have way too much junk in this house. I have sorted everything out in this room and my living room. The kitchen I will do next week and the laundry room so it just leaves the understairs thing which my dad can do by himself because it is all his junk under there. Next it is my bedroom, I need to go through my drawers as I need room for clothes and some of my drawers are full of paperwork and junk that I don't need or use so I need to sort all that out. Then it shall all be finished.
I was meant to be sorting the house out all this week but with being ill I don't feel up to it. Today I feel the best I have since Sunday but I need to do some cleaning with the bit of strength I have today, I know I won't last long because I feel rough and weak but with some luck I will have enough strength to get the rubbish out of here, vac and clean all the mirrors downstairs and upstairs and also work out where I want to put a mirror we have that needs going up somewhere.
I still don't have my course materials for T175 and my tutor told me I can access most of it online but I can't sit online for ages looking at the screen and want my books. I have had to ask for an extension on the tma due on the 2nd November because I am ill and don't have my books. I hope I get one because I don't have the energy to study right now but I should be OK to get into it on Monday. He hasn't replied yet so I am hoping he does soon and gives me one otherwise I am in trouble.
This weekend should be good. I am a little upset over something right now but I am sure my friends will cheer me up in two days time. I really can't wait and am trying to get as well as I can in the next two days.
Friday is going to be good as is Saturday and with no plans for Sunday anything could happen lol. It should be good to have my three closest friends here for three days, I wish it was longer but that is impossible. Maybe another time we can get together for longer.
I have my outfit for the Saturday night, well the top but I can't decide between jeans or a really nice pair of black trousers. I have tried the top with jeans and it looks good but as of yet I haven't tried it with the trousers. I will do that tomorrow when I am feeling a little better. The top looks amazing!! I will hopefully have a picture to post after the weekend of me in that outfit but all I can say now is it really rocks and was worth every penny.
Right I better go and try and use this little energy I have to do a little cleaning. I shall be back on in a few days, probably after weekend!!

Just the way you are
Well my many fans ;o) I am here lol.
I am really tired now (19:01pm) so if I make no sense or write a load of rubbish then I blame my tiredness and not my normal blondeness :op
I missed my exam on Tuesday because I had a banging headache and I was under revised on that because what has been going on in my life for the past few months. I am not happy about it to be honest because I did work really hard on it all year and was getting my highest marks ever. I feel so stupid for messing up this badly because a year of hard work has gone down the drain for what?!!
So it is the A207 exam on Wednesday and I have done not enough as far as revision is concerned and I am hoping to get some done tomorrow and Tuesday. I can remember a fair bit from last year but I hope I can pull this exam off so I haven't wasted two full years.
I am thinking of not doing my religion course next year and either doing level 1 Law or two 30 point courses, a French one and the other computing one I need to do at some point.
Less than 2 weeks to go until my friends are here and I am happy about that and I can't wait. It is a week on Friday which is easier to say. I have been cleaning the house today and some of last week. I am going through loads of things and chucking out all the junk and making it look at least a little bit better around the house as it is a tip even when clean but after all I have done today it is really looking heaps better now. There is still a bit to do over the next week or so but a hour or two a day and maybe more at the weekend will have it done in time and then it should be easy to keep clean and tidy if I do some each day like I used to do.
So I went to the dentists on Wednesday and it is such a nice place. I didn't know it was there but me likes it. I think there is about 6 dentists there and it is a big posh place. I was waiting ages to be seen and when I was finally seen they took three lots of X-rays and told me to sit in the waiting room. My dad was with me and he said that the time had almost run out on the parking meter and I said I shouldn't be long now and not to bother putting anymore money in it. I then said watch out for traffic wardens and if you see one run out and move the car. About a minute later I turn round and there is a traffic warden walking up to the car so my dad rushes out and as he gets to her she starts to put it in her computer and was nasty to be dad from what he said. I was sat watching and wanting to go out and have a go at her because he was only 2 minutes over and he could of been held up in there but she wasn't being nice about it. She then told him he had to get another ticket otherwise she would book him again.
It was totally my fault as I told my dad not to go and put some more money in so I said I would pay for it. My dad said that he would pay for it but it wasn't his fault, I really did think I wouldn't be much longer but I was another hour in total. There was only 2 minutes left on the ticket when we left the dentists and neither of us had any more change for another ticket so it is a very good job I got out when I did.
The news wasn't too bad or too good - it could of been worse. I need a crown because one of my teeth have died. It is one of my main front teeth so I am not too pleased about that because the crown might look really dodgy and fake and I don't want fake looking teeth but maybe it is my own fault for not looking after my teeth properly though she did say it looks like I have banged my tooth and that's why it might of died so who knows what made it die. I also need a couple of fillings and that is it so it isn't all bad considering the last time I went to the dentists I was either 18 or 19. She did say I have a couple of teeth that need keeping a watch on over the next 6 months but other than that I am fine.
I badly need some new albums me thinks, well I know I do as I need some fresh music. A lot of my CDs I have had for years and I haven't bought many over the last couple of years. I think this year I have bought maybe ten if that and most of them I paid for with Amazon vouchers. So I am hoping I get some for my birthday, I think my dad is getting me one or two with whatever else I am having and I think I will get one of Duncan and one off Barry so that is four CDS. I have a list of so many that I am after and would love about 12 of them off my list but we shall see what I get for my birthday.
My contract is finally up on my phone though it is still live because I still have minutes on it. I am very pleased with that. I have maybe 200 minutes left on and the way I am going with minutes lately I can see them lasting a long time so I could be on this number for a while yet unless they get annoyed with me and the amount of time I am taking to use them and then kick me off lol.
I have a O2 sim card ready and I already know my number for that. I think I might register it for when they kick me off so I don't need to go through all that on the day they kick me off. I won't be giving my number to everyone who had it now that's for sure. I am careful about who I give my number out to but there are one or two that have it and I don't really want those people in my life or being able to contact me via my phone so when I change over I will make sure it doesn't get passed onto them.
I picked a new carpet on Saturday for our hall, stairs and landing and with some luck it will be laid on Thursday evening which is great. It will make the house look heaps better with something on the floor. It has been a while since there was a carpet on there so it will be nice to walk around with nothing on my feet and them not get cold on the floor boards. The house is now slowly looking better, we haven't spent too much money on it because we don't really want to stay living here and only moved here because we were desperate for somewhere to live and this was the first place that came up so we took it. beggers can't be choosers and all that and that was the way it was. We do plan on moving next summer into a house that is a 100 times better in a area 10 times better than here and probably three bedrooms so I can have people come and stay etc which would be great.
Oh I went to Next on Saturday too after not going in one for like three months. I was looking for a nice evening top to wear for the night we are going out for a meal (28th October) and I have looked onlike etc but I wanted to look in person as it is easier that way and better to take it back to the shop. But I walked around for ages in the evening wear section and nothing jumped out at me. There was nothing and that isn't a joke either, I wish I was joking.
I got one top that is a nice lurex top and is a evening top but it isn't what I want to wear for the meal but the way things are I might be if they don't get anything half decent in.
I also got a pair of chocolate combat-ess trousers with a thick belt and I like them a lot but I don't know if they are me, they add weight to me when I wear them and non of my trainers go with them but I am sure I can sort that out by getting some from Next.
I also got a blue leather-look bag that looks really old and battered. I really like that and am probably going to keep it.
Thursday was a nice and interesting day, I met Sken after he said he was coming round he turned up and I was shocked to see him. He is a lot better in person than I thought he would be and I am not saying I thought he would be rough or horrible in person but he is heaps nicer in the flesh and that is both looks and personally.
I was pleased with who and what he is all about and the whole day was great, he was here for 6 1/2 hours and it went really well. I don't think I have ever been so relaxed around anyone in my whole life and I hope he comes and sees me sometime soon as that would be totally amazing I can tell you.

Zanzibar
Oh my, it has been almost 2 weeks since I posted on here, my mind has been all over the place so I totally forgot about it.
I didn't go to my A217 exam yesterday as I had a migrain. I had under revised for it too because I have had a major distraction in my life and one minute I am happy and then the next I am sad so I didn't get much done.
I might of failed my course because I didn't go yesterday and I am not too happy about that because I worked really hard on it this year and yeah the last two TMAs weren't done because of illness and other things but I still was doing rather well on and I just hope that I haven't wasted nine months because the sooner I get my degree the better I say.
I have a week to send a form in saying why I didn't do the exam and I hope they will let me resit otherwise I will not be happy.
The A207 revision isn't too bad, I done a bit but I remember all sorts from last year. But I am going to do some more reading of the bits that I plan on using in the exam and I have till next Wednesday to do that so I think I should be ok. The least I can do is pass that exam, I do have a good feeling about that exam but it is all down to the questions I get.
I had a job interview on Monday and I think it went really well. I am not sure if I have got the job, I would like to hope that I have but I think maybe not. It would be ideal for me and it is something that I want to do so my fingers are crossed but seen as I haven't heard anything yet I don't think I have got it.
Had the dentists today :os Hmm I need some work doing and not as much as I thought but I need a crown which I am not too pleased about. My dad said they put a tempory one on at first and I am not pleased about that and am going to change my appointment as it is on the 27th the day before my friends come up for my birthday and I don't want a dodgy tempory crown on so I will change it for the week after I think just in case I look a idiot.
On Saturday my dad accidentally broke the fride. We were defrosting it as it had a ice box at the top and it was forever freezing and there was a massive block of ice. So I turned it off in the morning and started to chisel away at loads of the ice otherwise it would of take 5 days to fully defrost.
We came home once during the day just after 3pm and then we had another go at getting rid of some of the ice. It was melting fast because of the helping hand it was getting. We then went back out just before 4pm as we had some places to go and of course I was getting to do more driving which I was happy about.
Anyway we get back and all that is left is one massive chunk of ice and I was about to chisel away at it when my dad takes over and with his first hit he hit that metal thing and all the gas came leaking out really fast. - that is it, the fridge was no more. I wasn't one bit pleased and I went mental about it as we had loads of fresh meat and cheese and so on and no fridge but my dad said it will keep cool for a day or two with the ice that was left in there.
The next day we went up to a retail park on Whiteburk and went in currys as I didn't want to go in Comet lol. We found a fridge that we liked and they didn't have it in stock so we picked the second one we liked and they didn't have that in stock either. So we picked and third and guess what?! They didn't have that in stock either or the forth one we picked so we were about to pick one we didn't really want to to get a fridge and my dad said it is pointless buying a fridge that we don't want so we ordered the original one we wanted and were told we couldn't have it till Friday. Neither of us were pleased about that and when we went to the checkout one of the managers was there and he told us if we have it delivered to the house and not the store we could have it on Wednesday so our eyes lit up and we asked how much the delivery was and it is £20 so my dad started to moan so the manager cut it in half so we only had to pay £1deliveryry charge and we came home very happy.
Foos hasn't been too nice since Monday as the fridge is warm so I haven't been eating much and am very hungry. Last night my dad bought two bags of ice from the shop to put in the fridge to keep things cool and keep last nights shopping cool in the fridge and they did well :o)
The fridge was delivered this afternoon and it is nice, I unwrapped it and put it in it's hole but it can't be turned on for 24 hours which is 3pm tomorrow but I will probably put it on at 9am which isn't too bad. Tonight my dad will get another bag of ice to keep cool what he is getting from the shop.
Saturday we got one of those blood Pressure monitors from LLyods chemists as they were on offer for £10 insread of £44.99. What a bargain. We actually only just remembered to pick it up on Saturday and we ordered it three weeks before lol.
It works a treat and my blood pressure is great, it is meant to be 120/80 and the one I did today was 113/78 and my pulse was 78, it never seems to be under 70 but I think that is ok.
My reversing is getting better with my driving. I love it, I have been doing a couple of 50 mile journeys on Saturdays and I like it so much. I was out in the dark the other night and I don't like that as much Iut i think that was my third time in the dark. The other two times was wIen i was going back from the M.E.N. arena in Manchester after the BiJoeljoel and Elton John concerts. We came back over the tops and that is mega scary I can tell you. I really need to get out more in the dark as I don't like it and don't feel too confident and I want to change that so I enjoy it as much as my daytime driving.
Anyway I must go, there are probably things I have forgotten about but I am sure I will post them on here at some point if and wIen i remember.
