i passed my driving test! 3rd time lucky...! :) its really good... driving into college now... makes the mornings a lot less hassle... i've been getting up at the same time... and leaving fairly early... coz i don't want to have to rush. I have to admit that my driving isn't all that great. I think i'm seeing things about my driving that i didn't see before. Thats one thing I don't like about driving by myself... I critisise myself too much! lol... its good being able to drop other plp off... instead of just having to keep asking plp for lifts! lol thanks btw!
And i have trouble parking... they really don't teach you to park... you think they do but they don't. I think that they should teach you that... maybe not to be tested... but real life parking! lol
Am out tonight for a friend's birthday... going to the oxygen bar in leister sq. - the only place in London that is licenced to sell pure oxygen... sounds interesting! Working tomorrow - so going to be very tired! lol and a few friends are coming over after work... going to to some baking (i'll probably be the least help)... one of my friends is famed for her baking... i have NEVER tasted better cookies and I doubt i ever will (they're even better than the M&S freshly baked ones...!)
So that will be a fun (if tiring) night!... will have to catch up on sleep on sun... even tho i've got to do h/w... as i'm working monday as well. How comes they only predict nice weather for the days that i work... it must be a conspiricy! lol

18.04.05
So i officially have a problem with revision... i've never liked it... i just thought i'd make it official!... just spent 45mins/1hr on P1 revision... which didn't make my headache go away... i just love relearning all that stuff... and thats only the start. As well as P1 i'm retaking M1 and S1... and theres also the P2, P3 and M2 from this year... at least i don't go up to P6 like some crazy further maths students i know... lol
Havn't really been up to much in the past week. Spent most of the time just doing work. Have had a couple of driving lessons as i've have (another) test coming up. I do admit to not telling any1 when it is... and possibly lying on that subject... i'm sorry... i'll tell you all the truth... (if/when i pass?). Went out to the pub on friday again... its really nice to catch up with all my old school lot. Its starting to hit me that i've only got a few weeks of college left before i leave all my woodhouse lot, and then there's the exams... then a major long summer (where you always plan to meet up with everyone... but spend more time asleep) and then all off to different parts of the country(world?) for unis and gap years. Its quite sad really. I've made such good friends at woodhouse that i don't want to loose touch with them. But as i've seen when i moved from county its really hard to keep in touch with even the closest of m8s. Everyone's lives are so hectic just with work and different time tables that its hard to keep up! So meeting up with county people is good - just need to make sure that we all don't loose touch by sept/oct...
Worked sat... was quite odd - there were 10 plp in... when we usually have about 6 and there wasn't that much to do... the few books that needed to come out were out in the 1st hr(usually can take most of the day) then we were lucky that it started getting busy because otherwise there would have been people standing around! as it was i reorganised the whole of the computing section (the "order" wasn't quite what it should be... lol)!
We babysat james on sun... so i use that as an excuse to why i didn't get all that much work done... i just 'had' to watch a bug's life with him... right? and then we had a big family dinner so that took a couple of hours (and had to finish watching finding nemo with james...) so took a while... its a valid excuse right?

11.04.05 Recap on easter hols
So didn't quite manage/remember to post whilst on holiday, or actually since i've been back. Holidays were pretty hectic! Obv went to brussels in the first week. Had so much fun! Really cool just 2 b let loose in a city w/ ur best m8... and even better wen you both have an affinity for shopping, cheap wine and mozzerella (for those who arn't me or naz these things are seperate...)
Naz's performance was amazing. The theatre itself (see below) was spectuacular. The set was... well interesting... loads of moving blocks... if you havn't seen it you won't understand it! lol. Now the actual opera was also really good... especially the bits that i understood! lol just not used 2 listning to opera...! So well done naz and ravi - you rule!
Below are some of the pictures that snap-happy me ended up taking!

Came back on a wed night. Went to a Razorlight gig on the thurs night. Up at Alexandra Palace.. was really good. The band were amazing live, and the atmosphere was brilliant. Though there were some downsides... like getting out once it had finished... One very thin door open to let every1 out by... not the best idea!
Then did 'some' work on the fri... cleared up my room a bit... which has now gotten even worse... oops?
Went to work and then to jigna's party on the sat... once again just had a wkd time! Happy birthdat to jigna! That was the day that the clocks went forward. So left there at 2am new time... and got up at 6.30am new time to go to turkey with my family! and i can't sleep (or for that matter eat) on planes ("i don't like food at altitude")... so was a bit tired/grumpy when we got there lol! Our rooms were amazing... (see the pictures below) and the hotel was lovely (5* (though that counts less over there... but still !)) - basically its main feature had to be the food - all you can eat buffet... and the food was sooooo tempting! So nice... but there wasn't ne lunch... so we had 2 sneak pastries out of breakfast... lol
On the thurs we went on a excursion... to aspendos - an ancient theatre and perge - an ancient city. Our guide was also an archeologist, so he made the tours very interesting. Ended up with a short visit to a waterfall in antalya... pictures below!
So basically spent most of my time, sleeping, eating and reading by the pool (i never went into the outside pool like my sanity-questionable sisters (it was about 11*c...)!
room view from turkey!

So came back on the sun (with even less sleep than on the way out if thats poss...) and was bk 2 college on the mon... week passed fairly quickly... loads of "fun" work... went to the pub on fri, met up with county lot, had fun... worked sat, then went up to see family in cambridge...and had a really short day today because of L6 having H.E talks... so i finished at 10.40... mia drove us 2 the gym(no its not that far and yes it is slightly ironic).. came home... started this blog... had a driving lesson... came back... played with messenger... carried on with this blog... had dinner... and i'm just finishing it now (19.05...) about to go to guitar... and maybe i'll even do some maths work when i get home. do i even have math hw?
