Goodbye For Now

Hello.

This is going to be the last post for a while. Things have just taken a massive U-Turn in my life and I dont know what is going to happen. Thank you for reading this, and I hope you enjoyed it.

Letters to No One.

Hello.

Dear Exam Boards,
I hate you. I'm sorry, but it is true. You make me severly unhappy and stressed at a time when everything is all sunny and nice in the world. I can't go out and be social, I can't sleep, my hand hurts from writing, my brain suffers a nervous breakdown at just the thought of spending 2hours in an exam room. It's unfair. I understand we have to be assessed and get grades to move on with our lives, surely it can be done in a nicer way? A collection of class tests, coursework, overall assessment of our attitude over the year...just a few suggestions there. Also I would like an A-Level option for Harry Potter, that would be much less stressful and I'd have the happiest 2hours of my life in the exam. Sort it out please?
Yours Sincerly,
A Stressed, Tired and Angry AS Student.

Dear Me,
Get some willpower. Get a backbone. Stop putting your head in the sand and sort yourself out. Only you can get yourself out of this mess so start putting things right. Do you realise how much trouble you will get in if she finds out what your doing? Make it worth it if you get caught, they aren't going to magic it away, you need to work as well. When you want to ask something, ask. It's not the end of the world if the answer isnt what you want to hear. It's life, deal with it. Also stop leaving your windows open in the evening, moths come in and freak you out. Stop blogging when you are meant to be revising as well.
Bye,
Me.

Dear Men In Vans/Cars/ On Bikes,
Please don't beep your horns at me when you drive past as I'm waiting for my bus after work. It shows you to be perverted twat who clearly has the smallest penis in the world. Girls don't like getting beeped at, it doesnt make us feel good. So don't do it or I will come round to you house and slash your tires and cut off your tiny manhood. Thanks.

Dear The People I Work With,
Thank you for complimenting me on my dress today. It is new and I wasn't sure about it, but now I think I'll keep it. Thank you for not telling me off for forgetting my name badge again, I was very tired this morning. Also I like working with you, the job is pretty boring but you make it a laugh. And it helps that the Boss doesn't mind that we all take the piss out of him.

Dear The Sunshine,
You make me happy, and red like a lobster because I forget suncream. Please stick around?

It All Goes Back To The First Kiss.

Hello.

Do you ever wonder what would be different if your first love was someone else? Would you be the same person you are now? Would it be a different person phoning you every night to say goodnight? Would we even know what love is? Everybody has a past and it's strange to think when you meet them, they are already like a whole book and your just a new chapter in it. Sometimes I think that that makes us second best in a way. You will never know if what you do together is just a repeat of what happened before with someone, the only way we get through it is to believe every moment is new. It's hard to believe sometimes. Sorry I was thinking about that at work today..
Oh rain why have you come back? I do love the smell of the world after rain but still I like sunshine more! Resisting the urge to go dance in it right now is pretty hard though, I'd get soaked within seconds. Hopefully though when it stops we'll see a few rainbows. And I have to be thankful the rain held off till today, otherwise my surprise walk round Danebury Hill Fort wouldn't have happened on Wednesday!

After a very stressful day of exams, History went awful - question were good and what I had revised but I completely ran out of time and so my essays had to be cut off half way through, my boyfriend gave me a wonderful evening consisting of a walk, kite flying, dinner at his, then off to the cinema. Prince of Persia is alright, I've seen better but still pretty good. Then went out for dinner last night at my favourite restaurant, Wagamamas. I'm so lucky to have him, I think why I am so worried all the time. So been a good few days, excluding exam stress. And also my new Elle has arrived, yet to be read but not for long! Got in too late last night to start it then.

I hope this picture made you laugh as much as it did me.

The End Of Time Is The Start Of Eternity

Hello.

A major neglect of this recently, but things have been pretty manic and over the last few days I've only been home to sleep pretty much. Probably not best seeing as I am in the middle of all my exams and haven't revised properly yet. I wish I cared more, I might get somewhere.

I seem to have missed the point of study leave as currently I've been at 18th birthday parties and just lazy in the sun with good company for the past few days, or working - so short of money it's unbelievable - the £70 pair of boots from Topshop may not have been best thing to buy this month! It is quite annoying those because the glorious sunshine has come out again (hello sunburn!) and I've been trying to revise in the sun but it's too hard. My brain cant concentrate in the heat, but I don't want to go inside because then I wont be getting a tan! History exam in a day and a bit - so screwed but I'm hoping I'll have a burst of inspiration in the exam room and remember everything about Stalin Russia and American Civil Rights..I can dream..

After a conversation I was having the other day about showing people you care, I realised how much words hurt.  I think I'm quite an affectionate person, I like to show people I care through things like hugging and whatever and when people show they care about me I understand physical affection more than words, it's harder to misunderstand a hug or get it twisted round in your head. I think words are such a delicate thing, they have to be chosen so carefully and said in just the right way so people understand them properly. I just think people can be so careless with words like people frequently use 'I love you' to others they don't actually really love, and yes I am being slightly hypocritical because I do it but surely that just emphasises my point? When it comes down to it telling someone I love them, in the proper sense, is really hard for me. In the two occasions when I believed I loved someone, I have never been the first to say it, even if I've felt it for ages. It's such a big thing I couldn't stand the rejection of them not saying it back, and even now when I say it I get scared it wont be said back. So words can be so fucking powerful, more than anything else in the world because they can be brutally honest, carelessly used, misunderstood, twisted..among other things. The best way to show someone you care is probably to say the words that are floating round your heart and mind when you think about them, the words that if they get rejected will clutch at your insides or if they are accepted it'll leave you in a state of shock. We all need a bit of honesty in our lives. When it comes down to it and I should express what I'm feeling through words, I can never find them. Or it takes me ages to find them and when I do it's too late. I need to invent a wire that people can plug into my head and understand what I'm thinking and what I want to say, but then sometimes my thoughts scare even more. I don't want to scare anyone.

I'm in a incredibly pensive and I hate it. I hate thinking about the stupidest things, I need to think about proper things like learning my History course and working out my budget for the month. But instead I sit and think about how ungrateful we are for the life we have, I have so many luxuries that some of the worlds population couldn't even dream of! And yet I never sit back and just be thankful for the roof over my head, the food I eat, the Internet I use..I just assume it will always be there. One of the main dreams is to go and do something for people in poverty, help build a well with clean drinking water, teach children in the Third World English, anything that will improve their lives in the slightest. I want to be able to give someone the hope in a better future that everyone deserves, instead of just taking everything for granted?
Anyway, Monday is seeming like a very long day for some reason probably because I've hardly slept and it's felt like afternoon all day because of the fan-bloody-tastic sunshine! I love summer, despite the fact I burn too easily, my hay fever goes mental and I get bitten to pieces, it makes me happy. I love waking up to clear skies, days of not doing anything and just enjoying life. Everyone is happy in the sun.
I got told today that everything is finally going to be changing, after over a year of waiting things are moving on. It's good, I think. So maybe by Christmas my life will be very different, we will see. I do like change, it keeps life interesting and shows us different ways to grow.
If you haven't heard it listen to Paramore - The Only Exception, I flipping love that song! Must have listened to it about 20times today alone. Also getting into The Fray again, think it's because they are pretty relaxing to listen to whilst your sat in the deck chair in the garden..
I hope you are all enjoying the sunshine, not getting to sun burnt and are happy.

Because today there have been too many words.

I Can Hear Your Heart Thumping

Hello.

Pizza, pancakes, filter coffee, talking, beer, playing pool, walking, driving, buying a car, finishing AS, cuddling, smiling, cinema, saying I love you, hearing I love you, long sleeps, baths, sunshine, having the urge to run, music, reading, day dreaming.. These are some of the things that have made the last few days amazing.
Finally plucked up the courage and said some of my thoughts out loud, very glad I did. Reassured me a lot and I realised how stupid I was being. I've decided that as reckless as giving something or someone everything you have is, it feels good. To have that trust, that faith in a happy ending. You only live once, the tears and heartbreak will only make you value everything else so much more.
This evening I saw the beauty in so many things, as cliche as that sounds. Things like feeling of crops brushing past you as you run, running your fingers down splits in a telegraph pole, the deepness of someones eyes, the clouds all coming from one point, the moon in the shape of a smile, the ache in your heart when you miss someone.
Something else that is looking rather wonderful right now is my bed. I am very tired.
One last thing, this blog is the first one in ages to have a title that isnt from song lyrics. It's a quote from this evening.

Lie To My Face

Hello.

Sometimes I just cant find the words to say what I think/feel/see.

Me Or The Thought Of Me?

Hello.
For the observant ones amongst you, you'll have noticed my blog picture has changed slightly. A bit of 'photoshop pimping' done by a friend. I like it much more than the white writing before, but I couldn't not have a Blog Title so it has been changed to . so I could have my new picture. Also the dot looks a bit like a star so you cant really tell it's not meant to be there. It is kind of strange to think that now people occasionally read this, I'm actually ranting to a person not just big wide open sea of the cyberworld. But in all honesty, I'm not forcing you to read it so it's your own choice to be ranted at.
First drive ever today with the boyfriend. Was really nice, went with another friend on his bike and followed him round some of the less busy roads etc. A good 2hours, made me feel a lot more free, even though I wasn't the one driving and it's not like I can now go out whenever I like, but just sat next to someone, watching the world go by just because you can and want to feels so good. He is a good driver too, I feel really safe in the car and even though it was his first time out ever on his own it didn't feel like it. He made it seem so natural, like he'd been doing it for years. So now I just cant wait until that can be me. I want to have a stretch of open road ahead of me, letting it take me wherever it wants to. I want to go and see the world, see it through experiences and moments no one will ever have again. Oh take me to that moment now please?

I have a set of thoughts that wont go away, I tried reassuring myself by asking about it but I cant bring myself to trust the answer? I have so many questions that I want an honest answer to, it scares me what might be happening and I cant do anything to stop it. It cant be that hard to cut old ties, if they don't mean anything anymore? Unless they do, and cutting the tie would mean loosing something that never should have been lost in the first place. I don't want to be just filling a gap in time.

Britain is now in a hung parliament, politics are down right screwed for a while then. Well more than usual. Haven't caught up on the news since lunchtime so not sure where we are standing on the collation, Lib Dems and Tories or Lib Dems and Labour? I have given up now really. But I'm glad my friends think of the important things whilst important political speeches are being made at lunchtimes; playing cards and peep!

Oh in Rescue Me, I'm now on Chapter 16 and it's getting better! Being a male prostitute whilst laying in front of an open fire with your best friends girlfriend after whisking her away to Cornwall for a week as she was beat up by her drug dealer, sounds a pretty exciting life to me!

Time for bed, as in 12hours I'll already have been in work for nearly 3 hours and I have lots to do in the morning.
