Long time no blog

Been a while since I detailed my life to cyberspace...
Would help if I was writing this on my computer and could see when I last blogged, but hey ho I shall attempt to fill you in...
life is good. Particularly thanks to a certain someone :)
trying to live for the moment and not get swept away by the ever looming stress of a levels... However with the realisation that tomorrow is march i.e two months to be taught everything before study leave , then my cheery outlook becomes slightly more difficult haha. But it's gotta be done!

Oh and:
- still working on history cwk after getting my draft back and being told I had kind of answered the wrong question. My bad.
- well into my new art project and actually rather enjoying painting landscapes and taking a break from my own darn face hahah.
- diary writing is going well: kept it up since January- how this yr seems to be whizzing by... Scary stuff dude!
- still waiting to hear from StA so I an go ahead and make my uni decisions
- next week is results day yikes so sure a post will be expected for that night...
-weather having a major hormonal mood episode recently going from snow chaos to 16deg the other day and now apparently snow on Sunday... Don't know if you're coming or going- partly why it's just so fascinating. Well to me anyway!
- got vaccinated for Ethiopia yesterday altho a tad concerned about the credibility of my nurse ha bless. Need to look into some more vacs tho I think..

Well that should be enough for all.
Bis bald!

Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Finish every day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities no doubt have crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.



Tomorrow is a new day, begin it well and serenely
and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with
your old nonsense.



This day is all that is
good and fair.
It is too dear,with its hopes and invitations,
to waste a moment on yesterdays."



That is all.

Walk

Went for a rather cheery walk this afternoon...


Just reading up on some quotes by the wise Ralph Waldo Emerson, looking for some quotes on nature for my art...

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.


Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.


You cannot do a kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late.

Been a while..

Been a pretty busy last few days, but very good at the same time :)
Just got in from school as we had an early close, feeling in an art mood so going to create the front cover of my new sketch book I think. Decided to do the Natural Environment in the end- will be a great break from drawing people (well myself haha). Soon as I saw the option of 'self-image' I thought NO THANKS mate! Had quite enough of myself in art for now ha...
Was meant to be on a trip into Bham city centre today wooh, actually was quite looking forward to it as we were going to go for a chinese buffet at lunch time. Was going to be a very educational day clearly.. But sadly it has been postponed until after half term as our teacher is not very well :( So I did have to go to history after I spent all of last lesson on Friday sitting their smugly as the homeowrk tasks were read out, knowing that I would not have to do it haha. Except I forgot that karma is a biatch... But it wasn't too bad as early close meant lessons were only 45 mins long which is always good!
Righteo. On with the art. Looking forward to watching a bit of Pretty Little Liars as well tonight yes please, and 90210 of course haha. Gotta love Tuesday nights!

Hello freedom

Alors, geog exam is DONE. Perhaps a God did hear my prayers last night as there were no statistics questions. So fingers crossed it went okay- just so happy it's done to be honest! Can forget about it now, until March 8th at least...
But decided tonight would be a cheeky little night off. Spent it looking at dresses and comparing links with friends. Tempted to now go and try on clothes for party this weekend/photo day on Monday whilst I am in this really girly mood haha.

Ciao for now!!
