My holidays + thoughts!

Hey!
I know I haven't blogged in what feels like a century, so I feel like this needs to be written so you know I haven't fallen off the face of the earth or something.
I went to Croatia on school music tour (I'm in the choir) and the area was freaking beautiful:
This is Rovinj, a city close to the resort we stayed at. We also sampled some of the culture:


This guy is playing us some traditional Croatian folk music while we eat a traditional Croatian folk meal.

This is a picture of a traditional Croatian wedding party. Turns out these guys know how to party.
I went to France for a fortnight with my parents. That was also pretty. I did not take any pictures. I am hopeless.

Some of my current thoughts I want to express:
  1. I am very happy with my GCSE results: An A* in French, As in English language, German, maths and additional science, and Bs in RE, tech, core science, English literature, geography and drama. Very happy indeed.
  2. Mock the Week is not on tonight. What?
  3. I love OPI Nail Lacquer sooooo much! Am currently wearing "Done Out in Deco". Such an elegant shade of lilac!
  4. My sister and I bought Silly Bandz. I shall wear them to school next Thursday. Who are you calling a dork?
  5. Am taking French, German, Maths and RE for A levels this year. We shall see how things go...
  6. My parents bought me Russell Howard tickets for doing so well in my exams. Am so excited. Shall make T-shirt with phrase "The future Mrs Howard" on it.
  7. Will not take another family holiday. 2 weeks is too long to be cooped up with loved ones. You will not believe how many Youtube videos, blog posts, XKCD cartoons, etc I had to catch up on. A camping weekend in the Forest will do me fine, thanks.
  8. I need a job. A real one. Anyone have any ideas?
  9. I want some Doc Martens for school. Preferably floral ones.
  10. I can't believe I cannot find anywhere that will show The Office season 5 from episode 13 onwards. I freaking love that show. Anyone have any idea when it will become available on DVD (in the UK)?
xoxo,
