I had 'fun' on Saturday. I was going to update about it earlier, but I got distracted, with work and such. But I have now finished all my hw (that is due anyway), so I have time to update.

On Friday, Miss D'Souza told us we would have a 15mark essay test on Monday.  Giving us only two days to revise!! Plus, it was on over half of our text book. grrgh. And, when it came to the test, we were also given the 3m and 7m questions!
Luckily, she was away, so our test was, um, unsupervised.

Anyway, on Saturday, Issy came over to work on our English essays and revise the history. (My family went to see Harry Potter without me...)
Whilst revising the history - by which I mean Issy singing out the text book to the guitar - I discovered why I am Issy's friend. It is because I make her laugh. And not because I'm incredibly witty (which, you know, I can be) but because she likes laughing at me. Or rather at my clumsiness. Which isn't really an issue when she's not around, funnily enough. Anyway, on Saturday I made her laugh by managing to:

• fall down the stairs
• consume a whole tub of icecream
• hit myself on my head with my guitar
• set fire to my bedroom.

I am never leaving candles unattended from now on.

But at least I got to laugh at her too. She managed to fall off my massive double bed. And she repeatedly hurt herself, using only her mobile phone. Ha.

Hee! I am in a good mood (possibly because I have just consumed two large Starbucks frappachinos) and so I have finally decided to update. (I blame the frappachino addiction on Jo and Katy).

Last weekend was fun - we had fireworks at home on Saturday.  Hannah, Rachael, Katie, James and Luke came over with their parents, and we took it in turns to light the fireworks and chase each other with sparklers... I loved acting like I was 8 again. Which, I then got to do on the Sunday as well, because we went to visit my cousins where we played hide and seek again, and I stole Kate's fairy wings. Fairy wings are now on my Christmas Presents List. Just if anyone's wondering.

Last  week at school was sooo long! Even with the Academic Review Day. Probably because I had a load of English to do. (Which I still have to do, actually). And Katy was ill, so I had no one to be sarcastic with. I'm glad you're better Katy! Yesturday, in Chemistry, the lesson before lunch, we did experiments on chocolate. We broke it into pieces and melted it, which made the whole room smell delicious. We were not allowed to eat the choclolate. As soon as I got home I promtly ate a bar of Cadburys.

Which brings us to today. Today, I went shopping. All day. I spent over £30 on makeup, I bought 3 scarves, I have a coat, and I got some earrings. (And the two frappachinos!) Personally, I feel it was all very successful.

This week is going majorly slowly. I really don't know why. Maybe it's because I'm so tired and I want to be able to lie in. Maybe. Although, my cousins are coming this weekend, so there's not much chance of that happening anyway.

I feel the need to tell people that it is my parents' 21st anniversary today. This means that they are currently at a restaurant, whilst I am at home, babysitting 3 boys.
This also means that last night I was in our loft (which is unbelieveably jam-packed and very dusty), looking for photographs. - To go in the photo frame that Chris and I bought my parents. Sadly, I did not find any recent photographs of me, so they must make do with one of me aged about 11.

I did, however, find some very scary photographs. I can't believe how bad my fashion sense was 10 years ago. Nor how much my hair changed colour throughout the years. (I have some pictures where it is a very dark brown, and others where it is blonder than blonde.)
I have to say though, that the most interesting photos that I found don't have me in them.  They do however show a girl named Hazel with her arm around a girl named Esther...
