Has time ever gone this quickly before in my life?
December's going to be half way over in about a week and then it's pretty much the new year - seems like only a couple of weeks ago it was summer! Been looking through some old photos & I miss summer alooot. Weird how much I miss the sun, even though Winter is by far my favourite season (and my favourite weather)!
So yeaaah. Apart from being all nostalgic and thoughtful, not that much to really write in here. I really want to start taking some more photos, but the weather and lgihting are so momentously poor it's going to have to be either indoors, or using flash. And flash does not work well with scenery. So, the photo front is looking pretty bare. ):
Today we had another little tutoring session thing with Ed, to help us with our media. Very helpful! Can't wait for the whole thing to be finished, (not that I wanna rush it!) I just really think it has a chance of being good and it's the first film-ish project I've ever done so naturally I'm gonna be proud of our ideas and hard work. I hope all goes well! Should really be in bed, but I'm having quite a nice relaxing evening doing nothing which I want to stretch out as long as possible before the hectic school life starts again. My room is a complete state at the moment, and Sian stayed over last night so there's a ranodm mattress on the floor which I'm currently sitting on. It's very comfy and makes me wish that my entire floor was made out of mattress material hahaa - how cool would that be?
Been noticing a lot of underhand nastiness recently, people seem to enjoy using facebook as a medium to flaunt their snide comments. It's petty! So, I think I want my hair cut? What do you all think? I miss it being shorter though, so much easier to manage and after a certain point I swear my hair just gives up trying hahaa. Who knows. So anyway, heard some of the new songs from the 30 Seconds to MArs album earlier, beautiful, of course! Very excited to be seeing them live in February, it's going to be a good night! I suppose I should be going to bed now, before I ramble myself into another very late nigth and horrible, angry morning. This is about the point where I discover a load of homework that I haven't done that's meant to be in in the morning. Oh dear. These things have happened before!

It's nearly Christmas!
So today was that day where upon waking up, you open the first box on the advent calendar and smile to yourself because the chocolate has the exact same taste as it did last year (and every year before that). It's actually quite worrying because it's only 24 days until Christmas, which is only a little bit more than three weeks away and I'm not feeling the slightest bit festive. Maybe I should bring some tinsel into school and try and spruce P1 up a bit? Get that Christmassy vibe goin' daaan.
Wow, this is actually a really good song - Twenty Years, by Augustana if anyone cares! Quite sad though. For some reason, sad songs always seem to be the most satisfying - but that might just be because they appeal to my somewhat sarcastic and miserable nature, ha ha. CHRIST it's hot in my bedroom tonight - I blame you, central heating! There's always a day on which my mum decides it has finally reached a cold enough temperature to merit putting on the central heating, and then it comes on every day without fail to turn our house into one big oven guaranteed to make my face flush and me to feel uncomfortable.
So, I wrote that like two hours ago? ^ Maybe more? I get distracted easily, ha ha. I'm so not in the writing mood any more, although I don't think I quite ever got there in this post - I adopted that good old frame of mind: 'I'm not very good at this so maybe if I just keep going eventually the quantity will, in some warped way, equal a marginally high quality of writing'. It's how I approach all of my essays.

Wow, a blog!
So, I've decided to start a blog (decided literally meaning being told over & over again by Chanti to make a blog & post things in it daily. A certain amount of praise is deserved for this though, because after a long discussion about the hopelessness of my future she somehow managed to make it seem like starting a blog was the solution to all of my career and finance orientated worries). Okay I'm one sentence into this thing & I already know what my problem is going to be: long rambling sentences that make full use of brackets, commas and dashes and that make little sense when read aloud. And then the ones that do make sense, will amount to a sum of useless information of little interest. Ah well. Maybe somehow, my sprawling and disorganized thought chain will appeal to the browsers of the web & give me an illusion of 'charm'. I know it's a long shot, but I'm already finding this strangely therapeutic.
Just noticed a clever little function - 'autosaving'. wow, things have come on a bit from my days of ranting through the medium of 'livejournal'. No autosaving there, & I could list the amount of times I'd pour all of my frustration into a freakishly long post about nothing, only for my computer to have some kind of techno-spasm and delete the entire thing. Oh, there it goes again! Every two minutes no less. Ingenious.
