Desperate Housewives..
I think I have an addiction to Desperate Housewives. Charlotte has lent me series 4 (But that means skipping series 3!) However, I think I may just read the synopsis' of each one because I don't think I can wait until I can watch them all, as I cannot afford to buy them right now and no one seems to have a copy of the 3rd series. I'm also revising, which is not fun at all. I need some more index cards to do some question and answer stuff, but I don't have any. I could go out now and get some I suppose? Or I could just read through the stuff I have then get some on the way home from work tomorrow? I know they're only 99p in the shop by Waitrose. Hmm .. I think i'll just wait. I have work tomorrow at 8.30-1.30pm. That's not bad, seeing as after that I don't have work until Tuesday night, as me and Adam are in Alton Towers for the weekend! Woooo! Can't wait. I'm bored. It's annoying having nothing to do, when you don't have work. It's not as if I can just go to college and do stuff. I'm done now! Great. So I suppose until my exams are over, it's more revision for me to pass the time. Love the excitement in my life right now. I want to go to London so badly. After the 26th I think I am going with some friends from college as a sort of celebration thing. But it's only the 9th and i'm BORED.

Erm...
I can never think of a decent title for my posts, seeing as I basically just ramble. If a particular subject occurs a few times throughout this i'll change my title from 'Erm..'. I GOT PAID TODAY. Alot of money. Shame none of it really goes on me lol! Love having my boyfriends birthday, my dads birthday, fathers day, and a year anniversary in the same month :) Ha. Oh well, at least we'll have a really amazing time in Alton Towers, and Adam will have a good birthday, and hopefully my dad will enjoy his UB40 tickets :D Guna be fun. I really want to try and make it last this time, and to be honest, I would love to save half of it. But it's hard when you have things to pay out for. I have college today at half 10 until 12 .. then i'm off to Charlottes. That'll hopefully take me up until 4 when I have to walk through the common to work, from 5 - 8.15. Funtimes. I would prefer to not go to work, but it's because of all the overtime i'm doing that I have so much money. Loving life basically! I'm going into town tomorrow to get Adam's birthday present (I would say what it is on here, but he reads it so ... nope :P), and perhaps get a few things for myself seeing as I haven't really got any summer clothes, and it's getting a bit too hot to wear black leggings and hoodies! I also need to get some birthday cards, and a fathers day one too. I'm wandering whether I should wear a dress to college today or not .. I would like to, and it's clear and sunny outside but I wonder if it's hot? I'll check in a minute, if not it's jeans and a boobtube i'm thinking.
Adam dyed my hair again last night :) It's nicer, but it's alot darker than it was before. That's because we were dying it on top of hair that was previously dyed that colour, so it wouldn't really be the same colour. I like it though, and last time the dye lasted me 6 weeks. And at £4.86 a box that last 6 weeks, it's a bargain compared to dying your hair professionally for like £80 and your roots showing through after a few months. I keep thinking that I should get ready for college soon, but then I see it's not even 9 yet, and i'm not meeting Iain until 10.
Me, Adam, Iain, Ben and Gemma went to the Bellemoor pub last night :) Was really fun, and it was good to see everyone out and about for a change. I'm bored now. What to do? I cleaned my room yesturday, and everyone looks good but i've got a couple of towels from yesturday on my floor and a tshirt hanging on the back of my chair that i'll put away. I have a lovely little mirror replacing my big amazing one, that deciding to fall off the side and smash on the floor, when I was cleaning out my dusting cloth :) Great. So i'm going to Ikea at some point to look for a new mirror, but to be honest that isn't a priority at the moment. I can deal with not having a big mirror, it won't kill me! I know what i'm going to do! I'm going to update my wall calendar, as I haven't in a while! Bye :) x

Busyyy..
It's been quite hard to write in recently. Most days i've been going straight from college to work, and then by the time I get home at like half 8 I really don't feel like writing down what I did. I'm saving up as much money as I can for next month (As I have my year anniversary, my dads and adams birthday and I need some clothes too!), so luckily i've been getting loads of overtime! Can't wait until the 26th when I get paaaaaid! Was at work from 8.30-1.30 today, then walked across the common to college for half 2, and had my ICT lesson. We had a practise exam, which we had to mark .. and turns out with my courseworks marks included I ended up with a B overall. And I didn't do that well on the exam either, meaning that I should hopefully be okay for the exam, if I keep revising and don't allow myself to get distracted.
Adams coming over in about an hour, as we're going to bingo at half 7 :D Can't really afford it but it's so much fun, and you may even win some more money! :) But I feel like going to sleep, so I think i'll get into bed in a minute because i'm actually really cold! I supposed to be tidying my room .. but I can't be bothered haha.
From next wednesday, I only have English lessons. Both my photography and ICT exams will be over! And so begins my gap year! Lol, freedom. I'm not going to be a student anymore. No student discount :( I think it's still valid until July/August. I think I need to go shopping and eat loads of Yo sushi and claim my 25% off so I can make the most of it. I've got next Tuesday off work too, so maybe even go into town with friends and partttyyyy? Haha, funny.
Bye.

Bed.
I love my bed. When I get my own place, the first thing I will buy is a bed. Because you can do practically everything in it. Except for a bathroom .. I need one of those. But still. I've been laid in bed since half 9, and even before that I was sat on it with Iain, Kim and Martin since half 7. So basically, I have not left my bed all evening. Story of my lazy life, really. Love it :)
Just watched Desperate Housewives, checked all my facebook, updated everything. And now I think i'll have a rant on here, since I haven't in a while.
I don't have college until half 2 tomorrow, which I annoying seeing as I am walking twenty minutes there and back for one lesson. But hopefully Iain will give me a lift back, so it doesn't seem so annoying. And it's for a lesson that I hate, that I don't even need -- with an exam in 12 days that I haven't revised for. Funfun. Things have just started to shut down now, and I need to make sure that I carry a camera round everywhere, seeing as we stop having lessons at the end of this month. Want to make sure that I have photos of everyone, because i've hardly taken any this year .. and this time in a few months everyone would have moved on - and i'll be here. On my lonesome. And I could count the number of friends i'd have on one hand. How depressing. Let's just hope these magazines reply to me, so that I can fill up my time.
Exam on friday. Went in at half 8 tomorrow (When I didn't have to be in until 1 .. how good am I?) and took some more photos. Still got some more to do, which I need to get the stuff for this weekend. I think I may have taken on a bit too much, seeing as I want to 5 series' averaging at about 30 individual photos, which I need to edit and print. So i'm going to need to get my ass in gear. I thought I was doing okay. I finished my BTEC Media Production course first in my year, with a Distinction* (The highest you can get!), then I found out my English coursework was top 10 in the year. But then I got my ICT coursework back, and my teacher was like "We expected you to do a bit better Sophie, we don't just want 'fine' do we?" I got a B! With 4% off an A, is that bad? Then my nan texted me and said: "Not as good as your other results, but you tried your best. Love you lots." Thanks nan. I don't think she meant anything by it, but still. Makes me feel like I shouldn't get so confident that i'm doing okay. I'm worried about my exams and stuff but i've got people telling me i'm going to be fine, then when I think I do well, apparently it's not good enough? My parents and Adam think i'm doing good .. but when I open my results, if I see anything less than a B then it's all over. In a few years, when I look back on my A Levels they probably would seem so minuscule in comparison to the problems I face in the future .. but for now it's as tough as it gets. And I really want to take on extra hours at work so I can get Adam a good birthday present, as he buys me so much and does so much for me .. I wanna show how much I appreciate the things he does. I can be quite spoilt and ungrateful sometimes. And the last thing i'd want anyone to feel is that I didn't appreciate them.
I'm seeing him tomorrow, and we're going to bingo :) That should be fun, shouldn't really be going as i'm quite short on money, but I really want to.
It's quite annoying, as i've been working since I was 16 and I have nothing really to show for my earning. No savings, £50 left to last me the month. But oh well .. at least I have my health :)
I'm voting tomorrow .. Green Party FTW! :D

Last day!
So it's the last day of half term .. Lauren's back at school and Adam's at work so i'm on my lonesome :) Love it! I'm going to clean the house abit later but for now I really can't be bothered to do anything! I've done some revision, but it's photography that needs my full attention when I get back, as the exam is 2 weeks from today. I've taken like 75 photos for one final thing, but I need to think up some more ideas of how to go about showing 'Collections' as a passion and an obsession. I have lots of different shaped bottles, and I wanted to fill them with things that people collect, like beads, coins, sand .. loads of random stuff. But then that's where my mind get's blocked. But I need my sketch book so I can really brainstorm and whatever .. so that means I can get marked on my ideas and that. I'll grab it tomorrow and just write all my ideas down whenever I can :)
Well anywaysssss .. i'll write in another time. Oh yeah, i've quit the Square Balloon. Yay!

Half term..
I haven't wrote in in ages! To be honest, I haven't really had much time! I'm currently laying in bed, while it's sunny outside.. farmville'in and what not. I love it :D I really should get some revision done, but I just want to relax! I have no plans next week (Apart from work for four hours on wednesday!) so I know i'm going to do loads next week. I just don't really want to get out of bed tbh .. is that wrong? :P
Tonight i'm going for a meal with Adam's family (Lol! Never gets old!) for his nan's birthday .. which should be fun. Only just got paid today though, and it sort of feels like i'm living payday-to-payday, which is kind of annoying but I do definately want to go.
My mums getting married tomorrow, so it's going to be a big, long day tomorrow. I've gotta be up by half past 8 to go get the flowers with Adam, then at Formula 1 hairdressers in Shirley to get my hair done at 10 .. then back to the house to get ready and the wedding is at 1. Should be a really good day, but unfortunately I need money for that too (Which I won't have after tonight! Haha!) but oh well .. i'll live. I get £30 on Sunday so that should be okay, and i'm not doing anything next week (i'll try not to anyway!). Right yeah .. so that's my exciting half term. Prep for exams and chill. Funtimes!

Alice In Wonderland!
Yaaaay, finally get to see it tonight! And it's going to be the first time i've been to the cinema since November when New Moon came out. Should be good (hopefully) if it's not as terrible as some people say it is? It has really mixed reviews. Hmmm. Just got back from college, had a shower and going to get ready as i'm meeting Kim and Iain for a subway before the cinema. Then we're meeting Adam there, and possibly bringing Gemma along too (If she agrees to let Iain pay for her!) Cant really be bothered to write a long thing today, but the things I want to say will probably ramble on without me noticing.
I worked an insane amount of hours last weekend, and i'm doing the same this weekend! But instead of starting at 10pm on saturday, I start at half 9! But the good thing about Saturday was that they let me go home at 12 (Bit pointless me being there for two hours but still .. it's money!) And i'm working Tuesday from 9.30-12 .. meaning I have to go straight from college to do my 5-8.15 shift at Waitrose, then off to town to have some dinner then start at the Square. Meaning that I won't get home until like half 12 from college. Knackering! Can't wait to see all this money go through though :D Gahhh .. let's work it out .. This week i'll be earning .. around £130. Wooo! :D Gotta start saving that though. Right, i'm going to go .. and .. I dunno, maybe play a game on my laptop before getting ready? I'll write a review in laterrrr.
