Abingdon at pace (took by me)
Lets start with last night to explain what I am talking about.I am finding it hard to think what to write at the moment as I feel like I am going though a writers block. Anyway last night I found it hard to get to sleep, don’t know why, maybe I was thirsty or I had something on my mind, but I did eventually got to sleep at like towards 2am. About a hour or so later I hear this massive thud and a screaming sound. I woke up seriously confused what just happened. I dashed to my parents room and it turned out that my mom fainted. She didn’t know where she was or what was going on around her. The fainting is all due to her having this kidney disease that her blood pressure is very low. I don’t want to be posting her personal life on her but that what happened. Anyway, that meant that I hardly had any sleep.
In the morning my phone was ringing but it was my mom calling me as a alarm clock, I slept though my actual alarm clock again. I looked at the time and panicked I wouldn’t have enough time to get up, and was very tried. I chatted to my mom and she was trying to do things she wasn’t meant to be doing, trying to dash around. I got really concerned for her and told her to get to bed. Just as well she got back as she did as could hardly breath. Anyway, I can’t really post more about that as my mom deserves not to have her life on here.
But it turned out that even though as much I wanted to go to college, I seriously was needed at home and also there was the fact that I looked like a zombie from lack of sleep. I already tried walking to college half asleep and I nearly got run over. I just couldn’t confederate with that much lack of sleep. So I decided that I sleep in till the time the nurse arrives and take it from there.
I needed to contact the college that I wasn’t coming in, so I searched in my bag for my college id. It wasn’t in the front pocket. So I looked in the rest of the bag. I then thought to myself, ‘Oh bugger, that card have all the contact details on it’. I then remembered that I sent a text before to the college, so looked at my phone and it was there. The problem was that the phone didn’t allow me to edit that message unless I forwarded it. This meant that I had to write the phone number on to my hand and then re-enter it all. I had the wrong teacher name on it but I just went along with it as I couldn’t be brothered to go though anything else like that today.
I had the task of getting myself breakfast. I was thinking eggy bread but there was a problem. They was nothing stocked in the place. My mom used to do all the shopping and she can’t now. I had to wait till lunchtime for my dad to arrive at lunchtime so I could eat something. He gave me a werid look when he did arrive and was like ‘Why you looking at me like this?’. It turned out that the hand I was resting on was the same one I written the number on and it was all over my face. I wish he just said that though.
Anyway, I am about to get myself dinner and then I am tidying my room. If I have lost that college id, I think that I will be murdered by the college. No jokes.
If you are confused about the photo I choose, it is a present from my sister honeymoon, I thought it was a thoughtful and nice thing from her. Plus it is shiny. Seems too pretty for me to drink.
It’s the third day of the course now. The week pretty much over apart from tomorrow cinema trip (which will be much like last years) , I’m eager for the lessons to start. They have ran out of first week things to do now after screening all the different teams filming from yesterday so it was a empty day.
The screening was a good laugh. It have shown that this year group has more sense of humour than the group I was in last year. And quality of it was very like the quality of my old group towards the end of the course. I don’t know if I’m being too harsh there but it seems like that to me.
I am rather sad that the group had to get spilt up as it was too massive for media. The reason mainly is because they won’t be enough edit suites around if everybody in the group was on the same timetable. I did hope when I heard the news that the mixture of the new groups would of been couple of people from old group and newbies, but it turned out that group A has newbies and group B consists of old group and a few newbies chucked in. By old group I mean the few leftover people from the old group.
So that was disappointing, but then there is more. They gave my group the new tutor which means I will have a repeat of last year of hardly being told anything we meant to know. Like my new computer network details that I supposed to get by now. Eugh. Oh well, everything else is good and positive which is the main thing.
I nearly left out something which would of made my post title more confusing than it normally is. My day was much more shorter than everyone else as I only need to do English in February due to how fantastic my coursework was so therefore didn’t need to attend any GCSE meetings. And some of the old group people was in the situation. And therefore invited me to Subway. However they had to walk to a mate house so dropped my invite. That was another thrilling thing in my life. 
Now I getting into bed, finding I can’t get to sleep and waking up slightly late. I hope thats not the case. I need to be on time for the bus. Eugh. For everyone information my current alarm clock music is MGMT – Time to Pretend. i see how long it takes for me to get really sick of it. The concept is I get out of bed to turn it off and in the process get out of bed. We see how that goes..
Mmmm fishy goodness
For the past couple of days I wasn’t that well. It was very painful to shallow so eating foods was a harsh time and my throat was killing me with the pain meaning I has sleepless nights because of it. I also was sick on one of the nights so yeah. Glad that I am starting to feel better today. However I am gutted that I cancelled my driving lesson I would of had today, I would of been okay after all.
I didn’t end up going to that networking gaming event after all which sucked. I couldn’t get a lift to where it was hosted, my sister was coming down for dinner, and I started to feel unwell then so it was all against me.
I was starting to panic that my final grade for this year in media wasn’t good enough to get in for next year. My friends and family have assured me that I will though. I think all this time off is slowly turning me mad. I have dreams of being in college now. That how much I am in love with it.
I been listening to loads of music for ideas for music videos as that going to be one of my assignments when I get back. I been avoiding watching the music videos for the songs as I would be too tempted to steal their idea. I am stuck on what song to pick and what would happen in the video. Guess I been thinking too much about it.
My favourite lunchtime snack at the moment is fish finger sandwiches. Mainly because it such a simple thing to cook and am feeling rather lazy to do anything that involves lots of timing. So yeah, fish fingers and some fresh loaf of bread is the way forward for me at lunchtimes.

Various uni prospectus from Derby Uni.. contains Stoke-on-trent lolly!
Its my second day in Derby and I have to say that things have been rather random. Yesterday I travelled up in the afternoon in my sister car and she packed her car full with different items for the house that she moving into with her partner. I was crammed in myself but the journey wasn’t that bad even though I had a hamster in a cadge on my lappy.
I went to sleep on this camp bed that already has some lovely holes in it. I woke up at 4am because my weight has just tore the whole thing apart. I was so glad they were planning to get rid of it anyway because I have had rendered it useless now. It’s a shame cause it was better than directly sleeping on the floor.
Anyway, moving on to today. I’d got up at 8am to have a refreshing shower and cornflakes whilst seeing disasters that the emergency services have to deal with on telly. Not exactly something I wanted to watch really but the cable video-on-demand didn’t work at the time.
At lunchtime, I decided to help out by mowing the lawn. I stupidly thought that such a task would be simple to archive and that I would be munching on another snack within moments. I was so wrong by thinking this. I had to put this pesky mower together and then I found that every five seconds I had to clear the base of it or it wouldn’t function. Ah well.. least it did the job.
Much later on in the afternoon at around 3pm, I arrived in Stoke where I unplanned went out with some people I knew from the place to the park as they were looking after the neighbour kids for some reason. I discovered that I would fail so badly if I ever wanted children.
I went to the house earlier than the people at the park and went out with my sister in the car. When we returned, we discovered the locked them out. During the time they were waiting, they deweeded the front garden which I was amazed by as the two years I visited the place, not once they took much care for it.
So we went out to the garden centre, for them to spend around fifty quid on plants. Not like you can get much for that price these days.
So that was my rather random day. Sorry if I rambled too much. :/
