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!

History coursework

Will be the death of me I guarantee. So far 1200 words into my 3500 limit, however so far I have only done an introduction and discussed foreign policy. Still got religion, finance, society and politics to throw in. Then conclude. As well as the historiography. And today I managed a paragraph before concluding my work for the night was done as that was just so exhausting! instead I perused the net for a pretty looking prom dress that quest also failed with the one dress costing £140. Bad times.
Tomorrow's plan includes finishing the 6th part of my final piece, perhaps that will be more successful! I did do some geog revision though today, so some faith in me can be restored!
Well, off to sleep now. I will get this history done, I will!
Bonne nuit.

Procrastination!

So, I am attempting to write my history coursework but as you can see it's not going so well as I am looking for any form of distraction. At least I have written the intro... Just another 2000 words to go yay!
Anyhow, so after settling down for some nostalgia last night with my 14 year old self diary, I opened it only to discover that all the pages were missing! Well not all the pages obviously, but all the ones I had written on... Vaguely remember tearing them all out a year or so ago actually... Obviously I didn't want to remind myself of whatever the hell I had written. Oh well, probably best that way!

Now Liz, on with the history. Don't even think about clicking on Facebook again after this... (amazing how easy it is to just waste your time doing NOTHING!)

Queen Elizabeth I

Was quite an interesting character to say the least. The rents keep tellin me how I should have taken history but I know (I think) that geography is where my heart lies. however, today, actually felt fascinated reading about her childhood and analysing her experiences. Could see myself writing A book and everything. I could be the next Philippa Gregory hahaha. I wish. But seriously, even checked out amazon for a book on her childhood which says a lot as normally my interest doesnt stray very far from plate tectonics or population change :p so thanks Elizabeth, for having a messed up childhood which has made history seem suddenly exciting. Or maybe it's not the history side but more the psychology analysis I seemed to be doing in great detail.. In which case I am completely doing the wrong thing with my life.
God. Why is life so confusing? No., I am pretty damn sure geography is what I want to do. I love geography- I mean who wouldn't, it's everywhere!! History is fine as a little interest, but it's just NOT geography.

Anyway, so me and my little head are gonna try and get an early night and I'm going to try and stop thinking now.

tired, again

Why I felt the need to tell my form tutor I went clubbing for the first time on Friday I don't know. Her remark- oh dear, Walsall... Pretty much summarises the place ha-ha bless.
But seriously, felt so sleepy all day. Took to resting my head against the dado rail in History- was surprisingly comfortable. Nonetheless, I still contributed- suggested how the 'mid-tudor crisis' was just like a mid-life crisis, where there's a little wobble in the middle. Was being deadly serious, but I'll take the laughs.
Talking of funny, couldn't help but laugh at this as I was checking out the Foreign office web page for Ethiopia (really need to stop reading the huuuuuge list of warnings as I'm scaring/yet amusing myself at the same time):


It is common for vehicles to be approached by beggars or vendors. It is now illegal to give money to, or purchase something from, people who come up to cars in the city. If caught, both the beggar/vendor and the vehicle operator may be fined. However, it is common for people, particularly children, to throw rocks at vehicles if their plea for money is ignored.


Ha ha ha. Good luck to us. 


On the art front, have now done 2/7 pieces (which is good since I only started on Thursday, I think!) Have drawn up the 3rd, although mouth is in need of some tweaking. Also started the back of one of them... So all in all a bloomin' long way to go yet! Even with my rose tinted glasses on, difficult to deny this won't be a struggle LOL. <-- that's right, laughing at it all makes it seem some what less stressful! 


Okay, so quick outlook of tomorrow. Bit of human geog in the morn, bit of art, bit of history. Mixed with probably a lot of chatting in between when I should really be doing my history essay. Note to self- DO YOUR HISTORY ESSAY. Also got a lil Ethiopia meeting at lunch, will try not to bring up my findings from the Foreign Office webbie and freak them all out. 


Bonne nuit mes amies. x
