1 hour bus journey

Hey! Today, I had a 1 hour bus journey - this is getting ridiculous. It usually takes 7 minutes, but the bus we go on has to go through Coaley as well, taking 45 minutes. This afternoon, however, the driver clipped 2 cars, argued with both owners, missed the turning to my village so had to go all the way through Slimbridge, find somewher to turn round, and then come back out. I was just using google street view to look at popular sights in London, for when my sister and I got to the capital in July.

How to: Podcasting

Hey! Yesterday, I went to a meeting about Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award. For my volunteering section, I'm going to WWT in Slimbridge, for my sport section, I'm playing squash, and for my skills section, my friend Kacey and I are creating a podcast. If anyone has any tips on how to create one, I would like to know.
Today at school, I went to choir at lunch and handed in my letter about next year's music tour to Croatia. I also had drama, where we were creating still images to do with the story of Blood Brothers. It was a lot of fun.

Enterprising

Hey! Today I went on this really crappy trip to Cattle Country (a local adventure park) where we were taught enterprising skills and strictly told not to touch any of the fun stuff there by the teachers. Instead of actually doing today's work I just sat around reading Vogue, when I came across a competition where you can win a month's free internship at Vogue. You have to write an essay about a most painful essay, so I'm trying to think of an interestingly weird way of writing it to stand out. I also just bought my mum a mother's day present, as I don't think I'm going to Bristol on Saturday.

Le weekend!

Hey! My weekend was ok, I guess. Yesterday my sister and I went to see Confessions of a Shopaholic in Stroud, were we also did about 20 minutes of shopping. I bought a Harry Potter 20Q in Home Bargains for £1.99! An absolute bargain! The movie was very funny, with gorgeous clothes. Today, in between the lashings of rain, I went for another jog, which was a little bit more of a struggle as everywhere was so slippery! I'm also debating whether or not to ask out this guy at school, who's kinda weird, but really nice.

Run, as fast as you can!

Hey! I've just been out for a run, which is very unlike me as I usually prefer to sit on my computer, blogging. It wasn't the most fun I've ever had, but it felt good to have actually done it.

School was ok, I had yet another 2 hours of science, and we watched some videos we'd made in German, which were godawful. They were about ailments and afflictions, and Kerry was meant to be the doctor while I was the patient, with a pencil sticking out of my eye. It was most odd.

Oi with the science already!

Hey! Today I had yet again more science. We had a day of something called an ISA, which is the new name for science coursework. It was five whole hours of experimenting, graph and table plotting and another exam, which accounts for 25% of our final grade. The investigation we had to execute was how caffeine affects reaction times. I'd had so many glasses of coka by the end of the day, I was buzzing! I also put this cute plait in my hair which I thought looked really pretty, and pulled back my annoying fringe to do the experiment. I have 2 more hours of science tomorrow!

Failure!

Hey! I had my biology and physics exams today. Biology was kinda hard, but physics was relatively easy, although I still don't think I'm going to get good grades. I also finished my bag in textiles today, and it's turned out relatively well. Anyway, I'm going to go off to bed now, my lack of sleep owing to excess revision has caught up with me.

Aarrgh! Les Examens!

Hey! I'm freaking out while watching the last episode of Friends as I've got physics and biology exams tomorrow. As soon as I'd got home from school I've been revising non-stop. We saw a play this afternoon, about staying in school after GCSEs, which was very weird. We also got told about an end of year trip, as this will be the last time we break up in July. I was thinking about either Alnick Castle (aka Hogwarts), Leavesden Studios (where they film Harry Potter) or seeing a musical, like Oliver or Wicked.

Anyway, for sixth form I've decided I want to leave Rednock, and go somewhere like Headington Girl's school in Oxford or something.
Wish me luck for tomorrow!

Come on, HP Alliance!

Hey! I'm back, and it's been almost a month! I just needed some time off to re-rally my lust for blogging. Just a quick catch up: We had a total of 3 snow days, last week was half term holiday and I have been flat out revising for my GCSE physics and biology exams for Wednesday :s I also opened a Twitter account yesterday, and I'm Twitter mad! My url is http://twitter.com/eli_weli and I'm a bit crazy at status adding - a total of 23 across this weekend. I'm currently listening to a HP Alliance DA meeting, which I tried to listen to earlier, but they kept f***ing up the broadcast at 6.oo, but they started back up at around 20 minutes ago.
I really must go - I have to work on my Macbeth essay!
