Writing...

  • Jan. 31st, 2010 at 12:02 PM


I have been writing non-stop on 'Let's Fall Back In Love' since Friday evening, and I still haven't finished the latest chapter. My fingers ache, my stomach is rumbling, I am feeling rather strung-out from lack of sleep, and my Florence + the Machine album has been playing on repeat for over 24 hours.

I'm really struggling with this chapter. I won't say why exactly, because I don't want to ruin it, but I'll give you a teensy clue. The title of the chapter is How To Say Goodbye. Now, it's not what you might be thinking. Well, actually... It kind of is. I dunno, you'll have to wait and see! 

But I can see how I want it all to go in my head, and it's not right when I actually write it down. Then there's also a bit that I want to do at the end, but that would involve making Harry and Nikki argue first to get to that bit, and then there's got to be a reason for them to fall out (again) and so it goes on... 

Okay, I'm going to stop lamenting on here and get back to work! :) I'm sure inspiration will strike, I just need to stop and think for a second, work out where I'm going next. 

...    ...    ...   ...  

Right, well that didn't work. Maybe if I re-read the last few chapters I'll realise what direction I want to take.  

I'll try my hardest to upload sometime today for you all, I promise. I hate leaving it so long between updates. 

Loveage

P.S. Oh, just to tease you all... I've decided what I'm going to do with Harry and Nikki later on. You know, I couldn't make up my mind between a reunion or a goodbye forever. Well, I know which it's going to be. But I'm not going to tell you :P   

Omg!

Omg, crazy crazy day today!!!!

I have literally just stepped in my front door! I am so exhausted and work out. This is the first time I've relaxed all day! Phew...

First I had college, so that meant I left the house at 7.00, then I didn't finish until 4.00. College is such an inconvenience! ;) Luckily my boyfriend picked me up from college though, so I didn't have to get the train home. Then he decided that it would be nice for us to go and do a bit of shopping before he took me out for a meal to celebrate my amazing college report (An 'A' grade and effort level 1 in every subject! I'm such a boff! ;P) Which is sweet, and I definitely wasn't saying no.

However, time was ticking on, and I wasn't going to be late for the start of Silent Witness! ;) I was even using the restaurants free Wi-Fi and my iPod to access my emails and FF! Then I made my BF skip pudding, much to his annoyance! :) He dropped me home at about 8.10, and we said the quickest goodbye known to humanity! Literally, a kiss on the cheek! I was so stressed! I don't know why he puts up with me sometimes! ;)

So yeah, once I got in ... half an hour ago ... I rushed upstairs to wash my hair and had a very speedy shower. My hair's dripping wet now, but there's no way I'm missing SW! :) It's going to dry all curly, I have really thick hair, but who cares! Tonight's SW looks really scary and tense! I'm too nervous to faff about with the hairdrier! :P

Anyway, I need to go and fish out my Ben & Jerry's before SW starts! My mum always tuts when I eat ice cream during the gory scenes, but they don't phase me anymore! 

So yeah, I'll probaby be talking to everyone again on the Silent Witness episode discussion at 10.00! :)

Loveage!

Depressed. Full stop.

  • Jan. 16th, 2010 at 9:17 PM

I'm bored. And depressed. I don't know why, I have no reason to be.

I think it's because I can't... go anywhere, with my Silent Witness fic. I'm halfway through chapter... 19 (I lose count) and I'm stuck. I know what I want to do, but I can't seem to write it. I don't know, I'll keep trying. I want to upload this weekend, so keep your eyes open!  

Plus, I had exams earlier this week, which did not help matters. One was cancelled because of the snow, but the other two were impossibly hard. History and english. Bleugh. I get my results in march, so we'll have to wait and see.

But now that the exams are over it means AS level coursework time! Joy of joys *rolls eyes* But at least I don't have to worry so much about revision anymore!

This is a really random post. But like I said, I'm bored. And I haven't actually written anything on here for a while. Aren't my saturday nights amazing? (Note the sarcasm) ;)

Ooooh! Hang out the bunting and fetch the ginger beer, I've had a fanfic brainwave!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Gonna go write it down before I forget!

OMG!

  • Jan. 8th, 2010 at 10:49 PM

I'm back people! It took longer than I thought, but I finally have internet at home again, which means regular updates on FF, and on here! So yay! :D

I am so loving that Silent Witness is back, and oh my god did it kick off with a bang! How amazing was that first episode?! I didn't like Rebecca, but perhaps it will teach Harry that the only person - no, woman - whom he can actually trust is Nikki. Well, we all live in hope. ;) And Leo! Poor old Leo, with his adorable cardigan and slowly greying hair! Even though I'd read in spoilers that he survives, I was still sat on the edge of my seat when they turned off his life support! 

Although, the Harry/Nikki stuff there was just adorable! When she asked him to hold her hand! Awww! And he was hugging her lots and lots. It was so cute! Sooo many fangirly moments there. My mum kept shhhing me! She just doesn't understand. :)

And I'm glad that Janet's still in it too! I like her, and I think she's perfect for Leo. You can tell that she loves him deeply, even if she was put out a bit by discovering that Harry and Nikki were executors in Leo's will.

It really was a bloody brilliant episode. Wow. Now we just have to wait 6 days for the next one! Big Harry/Nikki rows though... :S Although, I've been thinking, if they row, then they also have to make up! That could be some more fangirly moments for us all! Oh dear, I really do need to get a life ;)

Gok Wan ♥

  • Nov. 22nd, 2009 at 8:57 PM

Oh my god, I had the best day EVER yesterday!!

Myself and a friend went to Oxford where the incredible fashion stylist Gok Wan was doing a signing for his new book! It was so amazing, because we were near the front of the queue and he actually spoke to us!!

He's so lovely, just like he is on the TV. He signed my book, and he recognised my friend from Twitter because she Tweets him ALL THE TIME. She was wearing an 'I ♥ Gok Wan' t-shirt, it was hilarious! But she'd told him that on Twitter earlier in the morning, so when she walks up to his table he goes: "Oh hello! I've been waiting to see that t-shirt all morning!"

Lol, she was so chuffed! :) But he was just so amazing, and I had my photo taken with him and everything!

Eugh, I'm stuck on my latest fanfic. I haven't even started chapter 12 yet, just because I can't think how to. It's so bloody frustrating.

Lots of love!

Hee hee...

Look what I found on Facebook:

"You're not a chav, you're a linguistically challenged human being who feels the need to revert
to colloquialisms, vulgarisms, taboo language and generally informal English in order to
communicate your brain's very limited activity."

Oh, it did make me smile. I'm trying to learn it off by heart so that I can use it on my sister ;)

I went to a fireworks display tonight, and have only just got in. It was sooo much fun, and it has to be said - I'm not actually a big fan of fireworks. But I had a fabby time!

There was me, my four best friends, and my boyfriend, and we all managed to get right to the front of the crowd by the bonfire. Which we needed to keep warm, it was bloody freezing out! I think I might have frostbite, despite me being fully kitted out with Ugg boots, a nice warm coat, hat, scarf and gloves. Boiling when I arrived home to a house with the heating on though! :D

We had such a laugh, it was great. The best bit was when they had all the amazing catherine wheels and things near the end. I was stood snuggled up with my boyfriend, and it was just... magical. I know that is ridiculously cheesy, but I don't know how else to describe it! LOL 

Mind you, I did have a near-death experience when I almost set fire to my scarf with a sparkler. ;) I was wafting it about, writing my name in the air like you do, and it very almost singed the tassley bits on the end of my scarf. :S But no harm done! I shall live to see another day!!

But I've now decided that after my birthday and christmas, bonfire night is one of the most amazing nights of the year!! lol :D

Going to bed now. I'm sooo tired, it's ridiculous! 

Nighty night, sleep tight!

Ohhhh :(

You know my first ever post on here, when I told you all about the BBC saying Silent Witness wasn't due to start until 2010? Well, I didn't want to believe it, so I emailed them anyway, but the smelly Beeb never emailed me back.

So I emailed them again just now (yes, I am that sad) and I got the same 2010 answer before I sent my email!! I was so hoping that it was a typo!

I thought I would quickly paste the link in here so that I could just show you it, because I'm really not good at explaining things! 

I really hate the BBC at the moment!

Back to college :(

  • Nov. 1st, 2009 at 10:09 PM


Oh, back to college tomorrow! I am really not looking forward to it. Mind you, who does look forward to half-term coming to a close?

And, of course, going back to college means the dreaded return of the early morning! 6 a.m. for me! Fun! (Note the sarcasm there). Plus I don't get home until 6 p.m., so I actually have twelve hour days!! I've never thought of it like that before... Blimey, that's a long day! 

Eugh, to make matters worse I have English tomorrow, which I actually hate. It's so bloody boring! It makes an hour and a half lesson seem like double that! Then, joy of joys, it's history! Yay. Such a fun day ahead for me tomorrow. (Yet more sarcasm, just in case you couldn't tell!)

Oxford!

  • Oct. 28th, 2009 at 6:39 PM


Okay, so since starting college I barely get to see my friends anymore, especially as one of them lives about 65 miles away now! But today we all met up again and went to Oxford for the day!

It was really fun, we literally spent all day talking! Which, to be honest, isn't that unusual for us anyway. Completely knackered now though, and my feet really ache!

We saw some of the different parts of Oxford Uni, and it looks so nice I really want to go there! However, somehow I don't think I'll get the straight As at A Level that they want! But, we can all live in hope... ;)

Just a quick blog update, I realised I hadn't done it for a couple of days. Eurgh, dreadest dentist on Friday :( 

Au revoir mon amie!

A little bit hungover... :(

  • Oct. 26th, 2009 at 11:18 AM

Well, the party was absolutely amazing last night! I had such a good time. There were relatives there that I hadn't seen for a few years, so it was good to catch up with everyone.

It was hilarious to see them all dressed up as well. Some people went to a lot of effort. My aunt and uncle were Fred and Wilma Flintstone, it was so funny. It was kind of surreal though, because I walked into the room and all I could see were famous characters/celebrities.

However, I may have had one too many glasses of champagne, because I'm feeling a bit worse for wear this morning! That'll teach me! I think it was when everyone was watching the fireworks and I had strategically placed myself next to the drinks table that might have done it. :) But oh well! What are parties for if you don't have fun? LOL

I'm knackered as well today, depite me having three coffees already this morning. I didn't actually get to bed until almost three! Then I had to be up by nine, because I had a doctors appointment at ten to get that HPV cervical cancer jab thingy. Everyone else had theirs at college, but oh no, my mum has to be different and books it with the doctor!

Now my arm feels all funny. You know when your knees go weak? Well it's like that only in my elbow! And it bloody hurt when she jabbed me with the HUGE needle. Okay, I could be exaggerating slightly there.

But I am spending the rest of the day doing absolutely nothing! I shall sit here and write my FanFiction. Mind you, I'm a bit stuck on my current chapter, and I'm not sure I like it...

I think the hangover is making my brain a bit fuzzy. :D

Family Party :)

  • Oct. 25th, 2009 at 1:26 PM

I'm off to a family party thing at six tonight to celebrate my aunt's 40th. I was kind of dreading it yesterday because it's fancy dress :( and I don't like fancy dress parties. I had a really boring outfirt picked out (it basically consisted of a rabbit tail and pair of ears. I know.) but my mum went shopping this morning and has spontaneously bought me a new outfit, which is AMAZING!

Okay, have any of you seen Grease? Well, I am going as a... PINK LADY!! How exciting is that! I have this amazing black 50s style skirt with white spots on, a white fitted blouse and a pink jacket just like theirs, with the words 'pink ladies' across the back! I love it.

Also, I am sat here typing this with rollers in my hair (yes, I look very cool) so that my hair is nice and curly later.

I actually love my mum. I don't know what made her buy it, she's not normally that nice ;) Maybe she felt guilty for forcing me to go as a rabbit before! 

I'm really excited now, it is going to be fabby I reckon. I wonder what other people are going as....

Sunday mornings...

  • Oct. 25th, 2009 at 10:18 AM

Is it just me, or are Sunday mornings actually the most boring time of the whole week?
I'm sure they were made to make people feel all tired and relaxed, only to have to go back to school/work the next day at a ridiculously early hour.

I may well have to stick a DVD on in a minute.

Mind you, at least we got an extra hour in bed this morning because of the clocks going back! (Well, here in England we did anyway. I don't know about everyone else.) Except the clocks going back means that it's going to get darker a lot earlier! I don't get home from college until six every night, and up until now it's still been light when I get off the bus. However, I have a feeling that may change now. :(

But it's okay. I can get a lovely Starbucks hot choccie when I get off the train to keep me going on the bus! lol

So yeah, happy official end of British Summertime people!

Ooh, something new to become addicted to!

  • Oct. 25th, 2009 at 12:53 AM

Wow. I have been a fan of LiveJournal for a while, but have only just got around to actually making an account.

It's mostly because of the Silent Witness section on here, which I have definitely become addicted to! I can already tell that this is going to be another one of those websites that distracts me when I really should be doing homework or revising! 

I'm loving it on here though. I've been customizing my proile, although I'm rather rubbishy at it.

Eugh, I have a stupid family party tomorrow evening, and I really should be going to bed now (it's about one in the morning!) but I'm just hooked on here!

Okay. One more explore on all the different communities, and then I'm off to bed. Promise!
