Oh Look! It's ME!

I haven't written a blog in ages and ages. This is because blogger was pissing me off, every time i attempted to write something, i ended up wanting to smash things up and cry. BUT you may have noticed - new blog layout! I like it a lot more like this and i love the new header. I had tried to draw a header, i drew a bunch of teddies and a little rag doll, it was cute, but trying to transfer it from paper to computer was a bit too much for me and it made even worse by the fact i have NO programmes on my computer (i'll come to that later). Anyway, as i was trying to edit the layout, i stumbled across the brand new blogger posting thingy, which is quite brilliant, so i'll write more often now. Although, I can't help thinking that blogger was trying to hide it from me. Hmmm...

Does anyone have an opinion of the new layout? Please comment, i love getting comments on here, it's very exciting, i actually squeak out loud when i see the thing that says "1 new comment".

My computer died, it was horrible but Barry fixed it. Actually he said that he *enjoyed* fixing it "it's like a giant puzzle", weirdo. Anyway, it's fixed now, just. But the only things on it are iTunes, Spotify, Google chrome (which is fantastic, much better than firefox) and skype. I can't put anything else on, like Microsoft office, because the disk drive is also broken. AHH!

I now have 2 hard drives. This is confuzzling. Anyway, as i was going through files that i didn't know i had on the old one, i discovered hundreds of things that i'd forgotten about, yesterday evening i deleted : 4 hotmail accounts, 2 wordpress accounts, a piczo account, a myspace account, a formspring account, a youtube account, a facebook account that i didn't know i had and my bebo account. Why would one person ever need that many internet accounts?! All i have left now is my Blogger account, a virgin email account, skype, spotify and a twitter one, so don't even TRY to stalk me.

Anyway, i'm in a good mood, it's half term and i only have 2 exams left before i can give up and let my brain turn to mashed potatoes until September.

Here are some other things that are causing my good mood:

Sunny weather
Tomatoes
The ridiculous amount of flowers in vases around my house
Slightly shorter hair - looks prettier, needs less brushing
New running shoes
Sewing machines
Morrisons raisin loaf cake
This song - The Wombats – Let's Dance To Joy Division
Being slightly in love with somebody who would never even look at me

Ironbridge...

"Emma, you smell."

"Oh. What do i smell of?"

"Sort of... red bull and mud and old people."

"That's a good thing - right?"

"No, definitely a bad thing - you smell like you haven't showered for three days."

"Ah! That'll be because i haven't showered for three days".

I think this conversation i had with my friend Emma earlier today sums up our trip to Ironbridge quite well.

Here's some other words that i collected in my head and pictures that i collected in my camera whilst i was on a school trip over the last couple of days:

This is our room - it was very big. but also very cold, and rather messy. Notice Nancy (on the right) eating a lot of biscuits.

"I love these biscuits! can i have one? my mum never buys them for me because i eat them all at once, but i really like them and she never buys them so i have to eat them all at once..."

"It's a vicious circle really?"

"Yes. A vicious biscuit circle full of vicious biscuits."

We discovered that it isn't possible to escape. (Nancy is wearing my shower-hat, Emma is wearing my underwear)

This is THE IRON BRIDGE. It's interesting. But not interesting enough to spend 2 hours looking at it.

More biscuit eating.



We went to a victorian village. This is my favourite poster, others prefered this one...



But i'm not that immature...



Inside a furnace - it was muddier than you'd expect it to be.



This is me and Arbraham Darby - he invented cast iron. His eyes scared me.

WH Smiths dancing. With coffee.

Just before i leave you in peace - who can beat my Friday night? I played Scrabble with 4 of my friends, 4 of my teachers and a man called Mr Khaleed (who doesn't speak english) whilst Mr Hunt (an IT teacher) played the guitar. Mr Khaleed won.
