Madonna in the era when she had cones on her tits. i'll spend the £9 on a CD.

ggaah. got up at 8AM this morning. times like that don't exist in the holidays. i went to chelmsford to finish my christmas shopping, well...finish-ish. sadly my bank account's gone bonk, which led to me having to borrow money off my mum in order to buy her presents, which isn't the way its meant to work really. i've been trying to figure out what to wear tonight, i was gonna wear this red skirt i have and a black shirt thingy but the red skirt apparently needs a wash according to my darling mother. i could wear something else at a push but the danger is i won't look old enough to actually be in Yates'... ggah. and i have to be at the chemistry tutor at 9am tomorrow morning, wahoo, another 8am start. better go do some work for her really hadn't i?

hahaha i made such an amusing typo when i was typing the subject line. ah i amuse myself.
anyway as you may have guessed, i ended up going to liverpool yesterday morning. much like lizzyyy mentioned, i have spent approx 12 of the last 36 hours in the car. but liverpool was lovely, albeit wet and NO I DID NOT GET MY WALLET STOLEN UNSUPRISINGLY CHAPMAN :P when i was in the service station on the journey up there, someone asked me where i got my hoodie from <3 things like that make my day. even if it was because "my brother would love it" :/ me & mum went to a tapas bar for dinner last night, and then headed over to the Royal Court Theatre to see those musical geniuses...(genii?) the coral. who...actually..were not that bad! they left most of Magic & Medicine alone, thankfully, cos from listening to it in the car i've learnt its rather odd, and my mum was not the oldest one there, which made her happy. all the bands were wishing the audience a happy christmas and stuff, and the Coral had fairy lights round their amps and drumkit which was pretty <3 also one of them, who i am going to adopt because he looks about 12 had the -hall bit of Marshall covered up on his amp and then had "attacks" written underneath, so his amp said Mars attacks! aaanyway... the thing i remembered most about them from V2003 was all the lights they had and all the shadows that fell on the screen behind them, and they had all that this time as well. but yeah, i wouldn't say "I love the coral!!!" but they weren't as awful as i was expecting.
today we went shopping, was gonna get some trainers but stupid Schuh didn't have any of the 3 pairs i liked in my size >_< we got a few presents for people in the high street and then went and had a poke around the albert dock. i saw loads of crap that'd be just perfect for charlie (stupid beatles memorabilia, a buddha finger puppet, beatles figurines) but sadly i have no money.
also saw a few of the uni buildings, although the woman who served mum at breakfast was a student at the uni and she said the zoology buildings "smell funny because of the things in tanks" O_o
on the way home we went past signs to Stone, Northampton and Wolverhampton so i thought of a lot of you lot! also on the way home, mum made us listen to Busted O_o hence the subjct line. then when we got home, she had post and it was her busted tickets! AAAAAAAAARGH i so cannot face seeing them live. i can't do it. i just can't. why did i have to have a Busted fan for a mother? no offence Clel & danniielle...its just... O_o
i wish accents didn't amuse me so much.
i'm going out tomorrow night to Tan's birthday, having a crisis though. i want to stay out for a bit longer after the meal, like in Yates' itself but i'm meant to be going to the Chemistry tutor at 9am on tuesday morning. mum's offered to cancel the chem tutor for me (by saying i'm ill) but i really should go...argh..
and lucy- i'm so so SO SO sorry to hear about the barn&stuff. xxxx

okay, so you know earlier i said i was gonna do more revision? well i didn't. i got distracted by wrapping presents and watching Outlaw Star and stuff. james & picture_of_pain have gone to the Hermit tonight. i have not, i am skint. whether or not i will actually get to Liverpool tomorrow is somewhat unknown at this point...my mums really ill and needless to say she doesn't really fancy the 3 hours drive, but she really really wants to go...so..we'll see what happens. i hope we get to go cos i ♥ liverpool, and i like a change of scene...but...y'know.
i have two presents under the tree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *regresses and jumps about like small child*
i've been told i'm not allowed to touch them too much ;_;

mmm so i'm not going up to liverpool til tomorrow now. mum's got the flu really badly...she's asleep atm :( i had to go to asdas for her earlier & to get lunch... *shudder* i hate supermarkets....they always seem to be full of wide, slow moving old women. and the logic in putting the toilet rolls near the dog & cat food is lost on me... also while i was in there i had this weird sort of flashback...except it was a flashforward, i had visions of myself in like 20 years time doing food shopping and having to buy wittily-titled cereal for my kids just so they'd eat breakfast. or something.
but in other news I DID SOME REVISION TODAY. oh yes (y) and i will do more later. i think. also bought rocksound... its worth it just for the amusement the lostprophets interview gave me... lee bitching about how when he bought his first mesh cap they were impossible to find amused me for some reason, don't really know why.
lucy informs me he has had his lip pierced. as i said to her last night, this could go either way. he could now look stupid, which i doubt, or even more gorgeous which is gonna make not staring at him even more difficult. sigh </3> </table>

SCHOOL IS DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!1111 actually, technically not dead as such, but over for a couple of weeks. score. and its 17 days til my birthday, which is quite possibly going to be the non-event of 2004, except for laura's 18th birthday, which was the non-event of 2003...except i will be receiving H*R tickets from teh lizzyyy...which is a definite plus. anyway i digress. so tomorrow i shall be "doing" some revision, then going up to liverpool *dances* damnit i forgot to go into debenhams and stare at jay check my hours for boxing day this afternon. ah well.
the christmas tree comitted...er....vegecide? arboricide? something like that earlier, and since i got home my time has mostly been spent putting decorations back on it, including a somewhat morbid headless angel, and watching random anime (outlaw star apparently) that sharna's leant me she's offered to tape me whatever anime i want... now i just have to figure out what anime i want heh. anyone got any suggestions?
i was going to go to ally's, but then it transpired i can't afford to get there. shame really because SHE HAS MY GRANT&TAKA PHOTOS AND I WANT THEM BACK.
hehehe school's dead school's dead....even though i should be going in tomorrow.

wheeeeeeeeeee we just booked to go to Egypt in february <333 i'm gonna see the sphinx [geeeeek] which for reasons lost on me my dad is referring to as "roy". anyway. slightly bizarre change of subject but i'm immensely glad ian huntley got two life sentences. my parents just guilt tripped me into writing christmas cards :/ they're all random and don't go together and some of them are in the wrong size envelopes and i was drawing "witty" pictures on the insides but i got bored after about 3. edit- i found this tape earlier with a sticker on saying "Sep 99" [i used to label my tapes according to month/year...music geek in the making wasn't i] and i played it and i discovered i still know all the words to a bunch of Alisha's Attic songs...when i was in year 8/9 they used to be my favourite band, and this just leads to me wondering why my memory for song lyrics is fantastic but i can't remember what i did in chemistry on monday.

today was...frustrating. barely anybody was in, and i wasn't gonna bother but i'm not bothering on friday and also i needed to sort my geography coursework. so thats done, which is good, but meh...had general studies and the stupid teacher split us into political parties just after the 1997 election and i had to be gordon brown and make a speech about the budget and i really REALLY couldn't be arsed. my speech was "i'm gordon brown...and i'm going to make you richer" because that was what i was told to say :/ james is going to poison the well incredibly early. hmm.
i also got really frustrated in my driving lesson because I AM GETTING WORSE. i never used to roll backwards down hills. i'm starting to think i'm never gonna book my test...gah.
editage: LOSTPROPHETS ECARD come on guys and girls go and send an XMAS e-card signed by myself... merry christmas - looking forward to 2004 xx SAFE xx

oh yeah... stuff has gone on. i remember it now. the stupid pe teacher at school seems to think i have stolen some photo of the poxy school hockey team. she seems to have forgotten that i despise hockey, and, indeed most sports, and indeed her, with a raving mental passion. stupid woman. i keep saying "i haven't got it!" but i can tell she thinks i've blown it up and put it on my bedroom wall. or something. my mum's pulled through again and i'm not going into school on friday. SCORE. what is the point though, of going in for an assembly and a carol service? tomorrow is almost as annoying and pointless BUT i have to go and speak to my geography teacher because i managed to prove myself wrong with some statistical test thing, which needless to say was not what i was aiming for. trie to start revising geography. yes i actually tried to start *dances* sadly i didn't get much done. and also, in breaking news, my liverpool offer has vanished from the UCAS website. this is NOT GOOD. i'm hoping its just because i rang them to confirm it, and they're changing the wording, not because they've taken my offer away O_o also my Cardiff offer still isn't showing up on there. mehh. and i want to make myself a mixtape with all songs with star/stars in the title. yes. the art of american football is one of my best songs ever <333

my mum just called me from wembley so that i could hear "One Love"
:/
seeing as when she asked me which Blue song was my favourite one so she could ring me during one, i told her All Rise, this proves that not even Blue fans can tell the difference between the two songs. to quote the boys themselves, i rest my case.

"southend, london or chelmsford. one of the two" <3 definitely a cheery moment in my day, that quote was.
i discovered today that on the last day of term i have no lessons. whats the point?! i started thinking that i could have gone to pgmg, but then realised that i couldn't have because it still leaves me with the charlie's flat dilemma. went into town after school with the intention of buying phone credit and christmas presents, but it took me so long to achieve the former that i only had a brief chance to look for presents. i'm still recoiling from the fact i've spent £50 somewhere since november 28 and seemingly have nothing to show for it. oh hold on, £28 of that was a strokes ticket. problem solved :/
people saying "thank god its the weekend" really ground me down today. i'm working both days this weekend </3 but cos i have next weekend off, i'm gonna go to the coral with my mum (wail) BUT it means we go up to liverpool for the weekend which will be a nice way to start the holiday. she said she'd show me the university buildings and stuff, which will be good to see. cardiff still haven't got back to me, i really want them to make me an offer, but i'm worried they won't now :/ i suppose i don't need them to, but it'd be nice :D
i know i say this every entry, but i'm so tired at the moment. i wasn't completely focused in chemistry, and while i wasn't looking i sucked too much stuff up into my pipette, and i screwed up 3 titrations. GAH. i wouldn't mind too much except it was an assessed practical and i need all the marks for coursework things i can get, and the way i'm going i'm not getting very many :/ had to spend lunchtime in the chemistry lab as well today, which in some ways was almost a relief because holly in the form room, straightening her hair and being anal. its not the act of hair straightening that annoys me, its the smell, and i fail to she can justify comments like "when stupid people get a degree, it devalues the degree. only degrees from universities like cambridge should matter, and only qualifications in academic subjects." oh die, you old-before-your-time bint.
both my parents are out tonight. i would feel like a loser, expect my mum's gone to see blue. such a role reversal. i just texted her saying "have a good time!" like she does to me. think i'm just gonna watch top of the pops and generally slob out.
oh my god, i've actually paragraphed this entry! how odd, i never do that. well... i still think i'm immune to many aspects of popular culture (this thought was born in my head the other day) and i would elaborate but my dinner's done.
