“Alas, poor Yorik... I knew him, Horatio.”

Hey, remember that time when I would only read, Shakespeare?

Hey, remember that time when I would only read the backs of, cereal boxes?

Apparently, I now like Shakespeare.

Who knew?

(Blame the wonderful David Tennant and his enchanting Hamlet charisma).

Good morning starshine, the earth says hello.

It is... One minute to midnight. And I'm still on the computer, when I really should be a) sleeping, b) finishing my comic strip for the school newspaper or c) doing something slightly more productive.

Ah well.

I just discovered how to do blogs from Microsoft Word, and I have to say, I'm very impressed. The phrase "HOW COOL!" springs to mind, but we'll gloss over that for now.

One minute past midnight now.

I quite like this new way of blogging; it saves having to get the Internet up, and is so much less hassle. And now I'm even happier because the Dirty Dancing song just came on my WMP. (Now with passion in our eyes, there's no way we could disguise, it's you and me). I love that film, mainly because of Patrick Swayze (isn't that why everyone loves it?), and just the big ol' heart in it. I love the dancing, too (I've recently got watching Strictly Come Dancing again, and am again kindling fantasies of taking up ballroom dancing), especially the finale. Has anyone else noticed, how reminiscent of the Lion King it is when he lifts her up at the end, all cute and protective, but showing her off to the world? I thought that was rather sweet, but I'm just a bit sentimental.

So it's now four minutes past midnight, and I'm going to go now. The Five Minute blog- perhaps a new idea?

Anyways. Peace out scouts.

 

The One With the Suckish Week

it's been a particulary suckish week.
not that anyone cares..because i don't know anyone who reads this except me.
but ya know.
it's the thought that counts.
people haven't been all they seemed recently. i didn't realise people i thought were really nice...could be so mean.
but i suppose that's how we grow right? you spend a couple of months thinking it couldn't get better, and then bam. there's all these couples & people changing & it's just.. I dunno. I guess I miss when we were all so innocent & just kids. it was a little easier then, in year 9 & 10. we didn't have the whole of our futures resting on just a dozen silly exams. which btw, if we fail, means we can't get into sixth form. which means no a levels. which means no university. which means no job.
so.
& not only that. but it seems every guy I even start to like falls in love with someone who's
a) prettier
b) more confident
c) more popular
or d) & most annoying all of them.
which isn't their fault I know. but it'd be nice for a guy to look at me for a change & think wow. because I don't think that's ever happened. like, ever.
I think..you get a reputation from middle school & when you're younger. that's what I'd like to blame it on, though I know it's because of all my faults which I won't go into. I don't want to get more depressed.
but sometimes I just think maybe I should have done this, or this.. & then they wouldn't ignore me quite so much.
and because i'm meant to be the happy one
I don't want to tell anyone any of this. because i'm scared that then I won't quite fit in anymore- everyone has their place. i'm the little innocent quiet happy one. & i like that. i like when my friends look out for me that little bit more. i like when the boys pick me up, as much as i tell them i don't. it makes me feel like I matter, & just reassures me that i'm not turning invisible. but because i'm so "quiet" no one hears me when I speak.. so i have to poke or hit people to even get them to notice me. which is kinda suckish. & i want so much to tell people who mean a lot to me just how much they do, like how when I see them I feel that little bit safer, or get a little fuzzy feeling of happiness inside by being around people I care about. i know if I do say it, it'll come out totally wrong & i'll look like a complete & utter idiot. more than usual i mean, when i'm not falling over or feeling awkward or not saying something when i should, or daydreaming in class so i don't know what's happening.
i wish i could stick up for people when i want to & not be afraid. i hate that.
so. i think maybe i'd just like to find a guy who listens to me. & could maybe tell when i want to talk but can't, & just understand that & not think i'm being moody. anyone? just someone nice would be perfectly perfect. there's 6 billion people on this planet, that's makes about 3 billion guys. one of them's gotta be right for me.

The One With the Tired Girl...

Oh my oh my... I am so tired it's unbelievable lol, but I've had a nice evening.. Coomber was v nice & sent me some really great songs, which are very me... And Robin Williams was just on Parkie! I think he might be my favourite actor in the world... I mean, Mrs Doubtfire was just legendary, ditto Flubber & Aladdin. :)
Reading a really great book atm, "Where Rainbows End" by Cecilia Ahern.. I've read it before but it's still fantastic, great storyline & great characters..
