Basically just when I'm bored or stressed or excited and have no one to tell I am now sworn to ramble it all onto this little thing... which I wanna call Ned for some reason... Is Ned short for anything? I dunno... anyway, I shall just bleurgh everything onto here probably once a day :D It's gonna get kinda clogged I can tell :) Ah well... reading is good for the soul or the brain or something. Anyway... enjoy and comment/post/email me if you feel like it :D Laterss xx

February 24th 2010 - Worst. Day. Ever.

Yes it beats the day the Titanic sank, Auschwitz, Vietnam and the day the volcano under Yellow Stone will eventually erupt.
But first...
Happy Fact 1 - MCS; only thing keeping me going...
Happy Fact 2 - I suppose I got rid of all the dead skin on my feet (gross, I know), even if it was in the most painful way ever, and I now can't walk. I'll explain later.
Happy Fact 3 - Maybe if I still can't walk tomorrow I'll take the day off and actually force myself to do work.
Happy Fact 4 - England is not a country affected by major diseases like malaria, and HIV (well not as much as places like Africa etc). So yay :) I'm not going to be invaded by any parasites any time soon.
Happy Fact 5 - ...Grimmett. :). This is such an unhealthy obsession.
Okay, so after goinng to bed at 2 in the morning (French essay -.-) when I woke up, everything seemed heightened in some way... it was really odd; my alarm sounded louder and more annoying somehow, and the light was brighter and blinded me when I switched it on. And when I opened my curtains my windows were all dewy (? Condensated maybe...?) and I was freaking out because that's never happened to me before. It was like the day the earth died... from fog explosion.
Anyway, I had Greggs first (the teacher not the bakery) and we had to rewrite Act 3 of the play Oleanna. Which I got so confused about to begin with and was really reluctant to do it, plus I didn't really understand what the hell she wanted me to do. But after a while it actually became quite fun! You may be thinking what's so bad about that, but oh how it gets worse...
In Grimmett's lesson, I pretty just made notes on Catcher in the Rye which is the new book I'm reading after they told me I couldn't do A Room With A view for my coursework, because I did it for my other piece. I'm not entirely sure if I've told you this before, apologies if I have :S
OMG! Just finished my report on malaria! FINALLY! It's actually pretty good. Huzzah :D
I'm sorry, I've totally forgotten what I;ve been writing about on here... because miraculously I wasn't distracted, crazy times. Oh wow, it's 5 to 1 in the AM. I'm going to bed.
Sorry this post is all over the place haha, and has no decent content. But at least I actually posted, it's a start right?! Yes, yes it is ;)
Laterss xx
YAY I finished my Biology report. YAY!

February 24th 2010 (technically) - Compulsive moaning

Okay so I have noticed two things recently. Number One: I am totally rubbish at this. That's more of a confirmation than a realisation... but I always feel guilty for not posting, which is really quite stupid as I only have what 5 followers, and I don't think any of them read this any more, so what's the flippin' use anyway?!
Number Two: I start like every post with something bad that has happened. So I am going to work to fix that and write five good things about my day/week/month to commence all ramblings :D
So, Happy Fact 1 (oh how corny, but I like it :L) - I had an inservice day yesterday, which was nice because I hadn't done any of my holiday work. I still didn't do it, but had an average day anyway. For the record, currently 'average' is about as good as it gets for me.
Happy Fact 2 - Lawrence's car works again :D Which means I have a free ride to Birmingham for MCS and I don't have to do any organising whatsoever, which amounts to a big fat YAY :D
Happy Fact 3 - The Winter Olympics are currently on. Not sure if that really counts, but I like to laugh at the figure skaters who fall over! And Britain won Gold in something :O Kudos to Amy Williams the skeleton lug-ist? luger?
Happy Fact 4 - I learnt how to curl my hair using straighteners! It's so much simpler than I thought it would ever be!
Happy Fact 5 - Erm... Jeez I didn't realise it would get this hard lol. Oooh, Katy and I have re-started our old penpalling system again, so I get to see what she's up to. Even though she lives two roads away... She's always busy, or finds some excuse not to see me lol.
Wow I feel better already! I've been in a pretty bad mood all day and that just miraculously made me feel like everything would be fine. One of my better ideas! I'm so going to do that on every post, and then maybe it'll be an incentive (sp?) for me to post more regularly :) Ooooh she's on fire :L
So, what's been up recently? Um, it's been brought to attention (is that possible if you bring it to your own attention?) that as time goes on I am becoming boringer, and I'm losing my sense of humour. How awful is this?! This can be added to the many reasons why I never want to grow up: I will become even MORE boring and lose my soul. LOSE MY SOUL! Also, another reasons why Doctor Who should pick me as his next companion. And another, well the first, reason why they should bring back the show Bernard's Watch :D
Off topic, I think I've told you about the film I;m meant to have made in French, yes? Yes. Well, I was meant to have finished it over the hols, but Jenni and I hadn't filmed any of it (:S) so we did it this morning when I should've had Critical Thinking (Sorry Toogz :P), and it was pretty rubbish to be honest haha, but it was all good, we had the film. Then when I got in this evening I filmed the other part of it which was just me talking to a lens feeling the most idiotic I think I've ever felt in all my billions of days. Not sure on the maths of that but lets pray they're right :)
So, that was all scrumptious, but then, I tried uploading the film to my computer, which is really fucking hard when you can't find the right fucking lead because your fucking father is an incompetent a-hole! so yeah, despite having done all the work for it, and all the French (which may or may not be 100% accurate... most likely not) we won't get credit for it because all technology hates me. There should be some sort of campaign for this, am I right?! Once again, yes.
Speaking of French, I need to write an essay for Lids. Hmmmm, she'll screech if I don't do it...
Maybe I should end on one last Happy Fact, because I'm getting stressed now.
Happy Fact 6 - Grimmett tomorrow ;) Yummmm.
And the life balance is restored.
Right... that essay isn't going to write itself... sadly :/ Why is it necessary for me to describe the issues of violence in English schools compared to French schools, in French? Another unsolved mystery for the universe to add to its list.

February 9th 2010 - Hit a barrier... in life.

All right, just shut it okay?! At least 2 days is better than 2 months, just deal!
I've already had a bad day, please don't make it worse!!
So, what have you missed out on in these recent, eventful days? Not a lot to be frank, Monday was alright I s'pose, but I was really tired, because a certain blogging site kept me distracted for quite some time after 12am, ahem. And we did some really interesting stuff in Biology about the HIV virus and how it becomes infected etc; and being the huge RENT fan I am, I've always been kinda curious about it... It's really cool, well its obviously nott, but the learning part was fun :) Now I just feel like I'm insulting HIV positive people :S Just stop Sarah.
OMG, I had one of those moments today, it was SO bad! I was at a RAG week committee (?) meeting at lunch today (RAG week is a tradition in my sixth form, where we dress up as silly things for the week and raise a huge amount of money for charity, and have a fair for the lower school, its all really cool) and I had an idea for a dres up theme, so put up my hand, and the leader of the committe (again, is that even how you spell committee????) asked me what it was... and I said "Sarah" as in MY NAME!!! I was like wtf are you doing you stupid child, and then because I was mentally battling with my inner alter ego - who is a total dweeb - I was like inable to answer her properly, and she just stared at me like I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I felt so embarassed, even though like no one else heard... ugh bad times!!!
Sorry, there's a tangent for you :D Ooooh, I rearranged my room today! And now it all looks bigger and spacious and stuff, but I can't decide if I like it or not :S I sorta have more room to walk around, but surely that's more room for mess? And something about it just doesn't look right... hmmm.
I might just change it back tomorrow...
Also, I just downloaded Paolo Nutini's first album, because despite loving his music, I'd never listened to it, only the stuff he'd released, and awh it's really good, mucho love :)
But yes, bad day today, mainly because I was pretty tired anyway, and then got so stuck in Biology first 2 periods. We're doing stuff on biological molecules, and its all just chemistry... and we ALL know how much I hate chemistry! It's like last year again, I just kinda sit there looking totally blank, when normally I'm actually alright at bodge. And I flicked ahead in my text book, and we're gonna be doing chemistry stuff for lik ethe next three topics :( How am I going to pass this exam?!
Then in English, we were thinking of ideas for our short story and I just had no inspiration whatsoever; I feel like I can't be 'asked' to just whip up some dramatic prose, when I write it's because I'm bored or had a random idea or just felt like it, I'm really finding it difficult to do it under pressure and deadlines and stuff :/
Well, it's getting on a bit, and I shoulf really be sleeping currently, so I'm just gonna cut it short there...
Laterss xx

February 7th 2010 - forgiveness is a virtue :)

Okay okay, I know I'm SUPER terrible at this! But it is a known fact (well not really) that it takes 29 days to either make or break a habit of something. So, in theory, if I manage to find time to blog fro the next month, i'll totally do it every day for the next EVER! Sound like a plan...?Forgive me for being such an awful blogger! I promise to redeem myself somehow! I'll complete all challenges set unto meeeeeeeee....
Anyway... not a lot has been going on recently. Sixth Form's going pretty well, friends are totally fine (did I just say that?!) - well minus the occasional mishap... ahem BOYFRIENDS WHO GET IN THE WAY OF SOCIALISING!! - and my classes are all just dandy.None of this is really worth a mention but I'm trying to pad out this post, because I haven't really planned or even thought about planning what's going to be in it... which is a pretty silly thing to do to be perfectly honest.
Erm, lets see... this weekend I've pretty much done no work, reverted back to being 10 and watched all the Mighty Ducks films because to be franxk they're AWESOME!! I should so play ice hockey... shame the snow didn't freeze for eternity, i would've been able to practice!
What else has been happening in Sarah-land...? I tried to make myself an alias/code name/new title. I didn't really get very far, in fact that's an overstatement, I got nowhere but I'm bored of simple Sarah Owen... I want a superhero name! Talking of heroes, oh my goodness Heroes!! I'm kinda a Heroes newbie, but am so hooked and argh I just want to rape all of them! They're insanely amazing! Hiro is so cute and PHWOAR Peter Petrelli!!! And secretly I totally adore Sylar! And I could just ramble about this for so long and how I desperately wish having genetically created powers was a reality and that I could save the world from certain death! But that's never going to happen, so now I'm gonna calm down and move on hahaaaaa!
Oh God, I completely forgot! Much bad news flower heads! Lawrence's car has like clapped out, just stopped functioning in all areas, and his parent's are going to clamo it or whatever, which means my ride to MCS has dissolved into nothingness! Well that's not strictly true, I can get a train, but like that involves having money and a shred of organisation, of which I have neither. Huge sad face D:
Hmmmmm, I shouldn't really be on here yabbering away (Ha, forgot how distracted I get lol) I need to be making a French film, about holiday resorts and stuff, or at least writing the script, but hey ho, this is just so much more important! Or I could be writing my psychology essay, which is already overdue, or I could be reading my book which I should've finished already for Literature (OOOOOH I need to talk about that too! :P) but no, blogger just needs my attention currently. Which means I might end up going to sleep at about 4am... no problems there :)
SO, before I forget, for my Literature coursework, I have to write a short story/opening to a novel/dramatic extract, based on a stimulus text. I chose to read A Room With A View for my ST after going through a huge list Grimmett (drool) gave us to look at. I literally picked up 20 odd books and read the 1st chapter then just put it back on the shelf again... it was not fun times :/ In the end I chose to do ARWIV, even if it is another Forster... A Passage To India was rubbish, but I got an A for my essay :D. But yeah, this one's a lot better, and is all about lovey dovey emotional romantic shoop (what kind of word is that?) which as you all know I'm a total sucker for lol. Seriously, if someone ever gave me a bunch of flowers I think I'd cry on them! So that's that... but I'm not entirely sure what to write a story about... Any ideas guys: please post!
Oh good grief, it's a week til Valentine's day! And we all know what happened last year! Oh dear... that's enough on that subject I think.
Okay, one last thing I think - for an unplanned post, this hasn't actually gone too badly! - I have decided to master the art of cooking. It dawned on me a couple of weeks ago that soon I'm gonna be flying the nest (am never going to say that again; cringe) and leaving for uni (EEEEK GROWING UP!!!!) and I don't know that first thing about how to make food edible! The fanciest thing I can do is cheese on toast which really isn't very impressive at all, so I need to get like masterclasses from cheffy people. I might get my parents to give me cooking lessons haha, or just replace all my Harry Potter books with Recipe books... I dunno, but I seriously need to start understanding how ovens work! Scary stuff :S
That'll do for now lol... and I will totally post tomorrow and the day after and the next 27 (?) days after that... then I won't even have to think about it anymore lol, my hands will just sweep across my keyboard et VOILA, a beautiful post just sitting there looking pretty :) I wish haha.
