12:13 pm - Think I'll try to update this a bit more now.
|
I have to go to the doctors on Wednesday. I've pretty much been unable to breathe properly for a couple of days, and my hayfever tablets aren't really working. My inhalers have run out too... great. Having difficulty breathing is quite scary sometimes actually, so I want to get it sorted.
My mum is having her hip replacement later today. After all of that messing about they did it's about time too. I'm really hoping it all goes well and shes not in pain for much longe and nt in hospital for too long, she won't be able to bear it!
Yesterday (Sunday) Stephen came down and we went shopping to York. It was really nice to see him again, I miss him so much when I'm down here. Shopping was fun and I love York, its far too easy to get lost in though! The next time I see him will be our 2nd anniversary. I'm excited not because I'll be getting a present, but because he's my first long term relationship and it's all going so, so well! I'm looking forward to living with him in September :D I got him a card and wrote the poem "i carry your heart" by E.E Cummings in it, because it sums us up so beautifully.
i carry your heart with me(i carry it in my heart)i am never without it(anywhere i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling) i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true) and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows (here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide) and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
I read a couple of sites that had some interpretations of the poem on, and I just love the fact that its written in an unconventional way. The lower case letters and the irregular spacing represent the closeness of the relationship (apparently!) I'm not into much poetry, but I love this one. I guess if I can relate to it better, I'll enjoy it more.
Anyway, most of the buddies are back from uni, Ben came home yesterday s I'm looking forward to see my best friend! Apparently they're going out on Tuesday so I might go for some drinks, not too much because I don't want to fall asleep in an exam!

2:30 pm - UPDATE!
|
Hahaha, same old me. Never updating this! ( Recent photo )
He's got a big nose, don't be mean :P We're going fantasically. Moving in together in September so we are in the process of looking for flats that suit us both. So yeah. Uni is going really well. I've just started a new job. Im a sports scholar for university. Basically I have to promote sport to students. £90 a week should help, the getting paid every 2 months doesn't :( I have a totally useless tutor who is a complete moron. Se must have been given the job as she was walking down the street. Coursemates are OK, just hardly ever see some of them, theres 11 on my course.
I go home every few weeks, sometimes Stephen will come pick me up. Last night he came over for Sunday Dinner which was nice. The we went back to his to "pick some things up" and ended up playing Viva Pinata for 3 hours...
My laptop was broken for a while. The power cable was just plain bust, so Stephen got me a new one and all is happy again now! I really missed it, basically it's my main thing to "do" out of uni work.
Last week I went to Manchester (£35 from Newcastle on the train, there and back :|) we went to see Brand New. Me, Martin, Scotty, Sid and Steve stayed at Bens dirty student house and some of his uni friends came along. It was brilliant. Play Crack The Sky made me cry! Ace to see the guys again :) Brand New weren't as good in Newcastle though, still a good gig none the less.
So yeah, I am happy really. No major worries. I just wish I could win the lottery and have a big group of friends at university. Ahh well!

7:17 pm - So, no update for a while!
|
My O and A keys aren't working too well, so sorry if there are lots of silly mistakes!
So I'm living in Newcastle now! Trying hard to make it to uni and keeping on top of work. I have an essay to write that should have been in on Tuesday but nevermind, it's not important! I get to see Stephen alot and thats amazing. I love him so much, and now he actually knows and feels the same way! We went to Paris at the start of September and he told me he loved me that day we got home, in hartlepool! How romantic! We also went to Paris at the end of October for Halloween with Richie, Mark, Andy and Michelle andthats was such good fun too. I might post photos f us as zombies sometime.
I miss home alot but I try make it back every 3 weeks ish. I miss my friends alot too and I'm wishing I was in 2nd year! I havn't made alot of friends here, but I'm working on it. I'm also aiming to start up with my sport again soon.
I live with 4 girls who were friends at uni last year, and a girl doing a post grad course who found the house that same way I did. The girls are all really nice apart from one, who ignores me alot. Pah, fuck her! They do go out alot and don't invite me, but I don't blame them really.
I'm saving money by not going out 5 times a week at least :D
Anyways, thats all the update I have. Will be nice to hear from some people :)

Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast This is la vie en rose When you kiss me, Heaven sighs And though I close my eyes I see la vie en rose When you press me to your heart I'm in a world apart A world where roses bloom And when you speak Angels sing from above Every day words Seem to turn into love songs Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La vie en rose I thought that love was just a word They sang about in songs I heard It took your kisses to reveal That I was wrong, and love is real Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast This is la vie en rose When you kiss me, Heaven sighs And though I close my eyes I see la vie en rose When you press me to your heart I'm in a world apart A world where roses bloom And when you speak Angels sing from above Every day words Seem to turn into love songs Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La vie en rose
current mood: happy

I'm so excited!
Next week me and Stephen are going to London :D it's all I have thought about for a month now, since I last saw him. I miss him lots :(
We had a really nice talk last night, and he said he was really happy being with me :) and we said lots of other nice things too. He asked me to go on holiday with him in the summer, and we are going to Disneyland Paris around October time.
I'm really happy at the moment! Just got a week to wait to see him again!
Other than that, I'm on holiday form uni for 3 weeks. yay! Been with friends alot, lots of nights out and lots of sleeping in :D I've got lots to look forward to before I go back

I was going to update this a while ago but I totally forgot!
Life is just plodding on. My work experience went well and now I'm back at uni. We have no work in until May. It sounds a long way away, but in 3 weeks it will be Easter holidays for 3 weeks, and then the new working semester will begin!
Me and Stephen are doing well. He's on a course in Leeds this week, so he's staying at my house. I ave seen him quite alot recently, it's been nice. We are going to London again on the 13th, seeing The Lawrence Arms and staying for 3 nights. I'm looking forward to that quite alot :)
Last week was a bit of a shambles. On the Friday it snowed, ALOT! It was nice, but lots of things started to go wrong. Me, Martin and Ben were supposed to be going to Becky's. Basically, we got there 5 hours late, hen it should take 40 minutes to get there. Oh well! Becky has changed alot. Her flatmates have influenced her behaviour for the worst. I don't want to be mean as she is one of my bst friends, but shes turned into a bit of a vile minded person, like the girls she lives with. An example of this would be that before we went out with Becky, he flatmates were watching a porn film and laughing at it. Seriously, they put the DVD on and climbed into bed and watched it, inviting their friends to join them. I'm not a prude, but that seemed very very strange to me, yet it was perfectly normal for them :|
Anyway, after Becky's visit, we went to see Yellowcard in Manchester on the Saturday. It was one of the best gigs I've been to :) I didn't expect to enjoy it so much, but I really did! We spent some time in Manchester and at Bens halls before the gig, and afterwards we watched a film in Bens halls common room. Lots of people he lives with joined us and we stayed up tallking and getting drunk until 5am the next day! It was great fun and I enjoyed meeting Ben's friends. Especially Andrew :)
Well that was last weekend! Nothing much else has happened. University is going ok, as I said before, no work! Modules are better than last semester, but I hate swimming with a passion!
Anyways, I'm off to read some of my 14 year old ramblings on TeenOpenDiary. I just remembered about it!

6:49 pm - how do
|
so yeah, new york was pretty good! very cold, too cold, minus 4, snowy... wicked! lots of shopping, walking, eating. all the usual biz :)
Christmas is the day after tomorrow...wow! where did 2005 go? i should really be saying that on New Years Eve, but it's safe to say this New Years won't be spent at home with the family and an internet connection! Everyone is home and it's been bloody amazing, we've been out lots, too much probably! my funds are seriously low :( We went out on Thursday, the day most people got back and Stevie T's birthday, that was a wicked night, i was incredibly drunk :S saw Mrs Luffman and Little Miss which was ace :D loved it! Bex had her brithday night out and her boyfriend was there, hes lovely and I'm glad shes happy with him :) Stephens toodled off to Paris for Christmas... charming innit :| ahh well, I wouldn't have spent it with him anyway. Hes with his best mate at Disneyland. 150 Euro for Christmas dinner... HA! I've spoken to him and seen him quite alot recently. It hasn't really been more than 3 weeks inbetween times we are together. I went to his the weekend before I went to New York and then the weekend after I got back he came to mine, so that was nice :) Then we've spoken lots on the phone. drunkenly and soberly. He has a night out last night and was texting me and then rang me at stupid o'clock in the morning and was rambling on then he fell asleep on the phone to me! bless... he's old, he can't help it :P shhh i never said that!
hmm, i don't really have much to add...
have a good christmas and new year everyone :)

i'm writing this as i'm laid in bed! i'm on my new laptop, it's all very exciting! its half 12 and i move house today :( i'm not looking forward to it all. i feel like im going to be so very far away from everyone.
this have changed. i'm ok, not great, i have this horrible feeling with my alot of the time. it's not nice :( i wish things were different but they arent. i dont really like writing entries anymore. its so dull as no one reads them anyway, and i just feel like i'm doing it for memories sake.
this will be all, i love my friends, i love my family, i love my home and i love my tiny weeny bedroom that i have lived in for 15 years. i'll miss it all.
