Possibly the most boring blog I've written.

You probably should stop reading me now... because this is going to suck... I just feel like I need to let out what I've actually done this week as it has been SOOOOOO boring.

I STUDIED. Monday from like 2-9 reading over all my folders , Tuesday was pancake day... so I didn't  get as much done as I should have, as we left for Soho Creperie at like 4 and didn't get back till like 8! But it was SO nice in there... I had a Salmon, potatoe and spinach crepe for mains, and SUPER yummmm nutella crepe for dessert!

Wednesday I studied from literally like 8.30am-9.30pm.. with food breaks of course. I did SOO much reading. Reading of last semesters folders, and some online practice tests and reading all of this semesters folders through so far, making sure I am up to date and actually understanding what on earth I am reading. Then started to do some reading of the different textbooks that I have to try and understand those as well, and make notes and keywords lists from them.

Continued reading textbooks throughout yesterday and making notes etc but I had like a 2 and a half hour maths class where I FINALLY learnt how to understand Log graphs (Y) wahoooo about time too!

And today I've sat and done lots of online tests to test how much I've been learning which isn't too bad.

Tomorrow I intend to have a good day making my study wall better. Gonna spent all day making pretty notes of the things I'm really unsure about, and printing off pictures/ drawing diagrams to help me understand. THEN on Sunday I'm hopefully going to finish reading the important parts of my textbooks and making notes on them...

they are alll soooooooo long. Takes forever to read them !!

BUT NOWWWW, I'm DONE for the night. I need a rest so I'm refreshed for tomorrow xD

Gonna spend the evening watching TV and listening to music... but then I'll probably feel guilty and start reading later anywayyyyyyyyy :)

LOVE YOU. Sorry that this SUCKS as a blog. But doing what I said and updating you all, on my completely UNINTERESTING LIFE.


( Except I'm a Biology geek and would not do all this reading if I didn't secretely love it ;) )

It's reading week !

Weekend went by wayyyyy to fast. Did Friday night 6-9.30 at the hut, and saturday 5.30-close !


This is not me. Googled it. This is how lame we look :/ Luuuvvvlyyyy uniform. 

 Then went to Tims and helped decorate on Sunday !! I'm not a very good decorator!! And I got covered in paint!

So now it's reading week and I decided to have a lay in!! Didn't get up until 10.30 which was a luxury!! Then I chilled out and watched some CSI and made some popcorn :)

Then I started my reading... did that for a while, made dinner, and now to continue with the reading... which will go on for the next week.

EURGH, Exams in MAY!!!!!! Where has this year gone ?!?!?

This week is hopefully going to be VERY productive :)

I don't take what I said about Valentines back... BUT

MY BOYFRIEND IS SUPER CUTE <3 SO yesterday, as I mentioned was our 3 years and 7 months anniversary type thingy... and in Febuary... it's our valenversary.....

SO at about 6oclock yesterday night, the phone in the flat buzzes and my flatmate Naomi said there was a delivery for me... NOW, I'm the worlds worst for ordering something online and not remembering what on earth it was, so I was just like oh god, what did I buy now!!

I go downstairs and there is Tim holding a BIG bunch of flowers. I'm just like OMG what are you doing here.

SUPER CUTE.

They still look lovely in this picture but they did look better.... I just didn't have a vase to put them in, so cut 2 old drinks bottles in half to try to arrange them in a nice ish way.

He even remembered my favourite .. Yellow roses YAY :)

I love him <3



Good job I did send him a little present .. haha!

Going to go home tomorrow... got myself a shift at pizza hut xD and going to Tim's to help decorate his bedroom !! looking forward to painting :D

Valentines Day.

Not that I'm a fan. Not really a romantic. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a hater, I think it's cute and I do by my boyfriend a little something, BECAUSE it's more of a tradition... and I don't wanna upset him by getting him nothing... BUT

I do believe you don't need a special day to buy the person you love some flowers, or a little gift of chocolate or something. You have the rest of the year to show them how much you appreciate them... doesn't all doing it on a specified day take the real meaning away from the thought you put into the gift?

I don't know :) I celebrated my valentines with a tub of ice cream and some studying. Wahooo. Didn't even see the Tim.

YUMMERS.


SO. I don't know if you know, but I get paid £10 an hour to 'teach' an A level student some biology like one to one. Which is cool. I always feel like I'm just talking, like that teacher that doesn't stop and scribbles things on the board in crazy analogies and stuff. For those of you who know Gabby.. Im her :( DIEEEE. ANYWAY. My mentee, asked me today if I wanted to be a teacher, and told me that I should be, because I was really helping her!!! YES xD That made me feel so good, that the time I was putting in making her resources and stuff was working and worth while!! xD Then she emailed me saying I was really helping her make use of alternative revision activities and the resources I'd made her, because she'd only read the text book before :)

This made me happy today :)

Been with Tim 3 years and 7 months tomorrow :) awwwww xD

P.S I LOVE WHITNEY HOUSTON BUT EVERYTIME I SWITCH THE RADIO ON SHE IS PLAYING AND I'M ALREADY BORED OF HER SONGS !!!!!!! :( I don't wanna hate her because she's soooooooooo gooood. PLEASE radio stations, stop overplaying Whitney!

Same old same old.

Nothing very exciting has happened....

Thursday I did my work...

Friday I did my work.... then made a last minute decision to go out in Shoreditch with the flatmates... and stayed up til 5.45 drinking vodka. Great decision.

I was supposed to be up and home by like 11 on Saturday morning, and that did NOT happen haha. Didn't wake up until 10.30am ! Whoops. Got home for about 12 instead xD

Had a double date at about 2 ish. WHICH I'm not gonna lie about... I wasn't particulary looking forward to it. I'd never been on a double date before. ANYWAY it was so unbelievably casual, just went bowling, had a slush puppy... WIN... and went to Nando's :) Ended up having a nice time :)

Timbalina then came back to Londuunn Town with me and we watched Lee Evans Roadrunner tour, which literally had me in stitches for like 15 minutes and we had to pause it and let me calm down.

Got up sunday morning to go to this clothes sale thing, but it was horrendously messy and I couldn't cope lol!!

Did some reading last night , had lectures this morning and here I am today :)

I'm gonna make nuggets and chips for dinner, and I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty excited about it lol xD

OH, I also ate a sweet with gelatine in it yesterday. BAD PESCATARIAN ! But it tasted soooooooo good!

Have a good week xD

It's coming along :)



HOW EVER many weeks later, since this photo was taken, here is what it looks like now.... 

Tuesday 7 February 2012

Ehrm how did so much happen in less than a week?

Crazy Week. So after dinner on Wednesday I found out on of my flatmates was wrongly getting kicked out of housing. Was not happy about that AT ALL...

So then after Thursday's lecture spent literally ALL day trying to find him alternate accomadation which was a crazy day of ringing landlords. It was either that or he fly back to America.... which none of us obviously wanted because he was SUCH a nice guy!

Then I went to my lectures on Friday morning, came back and found out he had made his mind up and booked a flight back to the states for Saturday afternoon at 12.30 ! Crazyy times. So then I was super sad :(

Then on Friday night I went home to the land of Essex, which was really nice :) And I worked from 3-10pm on Saturday! This is when the snow came. It's pretty... I just wish England learnt how to cope with the damn stuff!!
Sunday Morning came and I still had some lecture notes to copy up from Friday and some extra reading to do, and I was worried about not being able to get back to London to do the work I needed to do, due to the snow messing up all the trains. So I set out on what I thought was going to be an epic journey but it wasn't as bad as I thought it might be, and ended up getting back at like 2 in the afternoon!

BREAKTHROUGH. I managed to do some maths :) Wahoo. ANYWHO.

Monday came and I spent the day in lectures, and doing a biochemistry practical, ( had to use one of these things, which are SUPER BORING...

which is the most insane day because I literally barely have time to do anything. 9-10 lecture, 11-12 lecture, lunch, 1-2 practical, break, 3.15-5 practical, dinner, time to do some lecture notes.... SLEEP.

AND today I have my day off, so I teach for an hour at a local college, which is nice.. and I actually spent some of my evening making resources and stuff for my student, which I hope will be of some benefit to her!
Got a new flatmate today! Haven't really had a chance to talk to her yet but she seems very friendly... after teaching, I spent a couple hours doing extra reading, revision from this and last semester.

Ah Now time to breathe. Feeling the radio and laying in bed doing absolutely nothing for half an hour or so before I sleep :)

I love what I'm doing here... and I know it probably sounds incredibly boring to most people... oh she's studing again... but I'm uber interested in it all... so enjoy it 8-)

Someone posted this on facebook... Miss Caponeeee... and it made me laugh and so I thought I would share it :)


Additionally, in one of my study breaks today, I created these... LOL. PLEASE REMIND ME NEVER TO CUT MY HAIR SHORT!!!!!!!
P.S I MISS TIM THIS WEEK BECAUSE I DIDN'T SEE HIM THIS WEEKEND *SADFACE*
(I'm looking forward to the rest of this week though :)




Wednesday 1 February 2012

Gonna study for the rest of the night :)

Enjoy the rest of your week!
