Excitement!

Okay just saying.... I'm a little excited!  I've been half counting the days, but now its actually here!

I should explain:

This week could possibly be the best (or worse) week of my life.  There are three events happening and they are all pretty damn awesome!

Number One

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out Wednesday night/Thursday Morning and I am going to the midnight screening!  I think that is pretty excitement worthy.  Plus, this will be the first time I will have been out of the house and my parents haven't stayed up 'till i  got home.  I know that doesn't sound that impressive but for them it's a big step (which they should've made about 10 months ago).

Number Two

It's my friends 18th birthday party on Friday and I'm so excited! I'm not sure if parents will 100% let me go yet however if i can go... Its going to be so much fun!  Especially the dressing up part!

Number Three

This is probably the biggest of them all... My 18th Birthday Party!!! Yes the time is finally here and my cocktail party is going to be SO amazing!  It's taken a little bit (a lot) of organising, arguments and general frustration, but as of tonight, the party is 99% planned out.  I think the only things that are missing are: the Cake (not important),  Decorations (not important),  a bag to match my secret outfit (important) and permission to go out afterwards (v. important).  But apart from that,  the outfit (minus bag), the guest list, the venue, the catering, the sleeping arrangements (for Stephen) and just about everything else is organised!  

All I have to do is wait for this week to roll out.. Slowly...

But now I'm back off to reading my harry potter books.  Until next time...

Done and Dusted

So I've officially finished university for the semester. :D

I'm not sure if I'm relieved or not, but at least now procrastination isn't an option. I guess now I have more time to focus on other things... like Stephen, and exercise, and keeping my room clean, and other important things like that.

So here's my little thought for today:

I hate exams.  I haven't decided if I hate them more than assignments, but I definitely hate exams.  They would be alright if lectures were more interesting, and compulsory to attend, so I would actually learn the content and not leave it 'till the week before the exam.  However, 'resource sheets' are amazing.  Especially when the writing on them is epically small and people pay you for them.  Obviously in the form of notes for other subjects, baked goods and nice jewelry for birthday presents.  But payment is payment.  I wish that all exams would allow you to have 'resource sheets'. But 2/4 isn't that bad.

I'm a little tired now so that's all from me today.  Hopefully I'll get into the habit of blogging a bit more  regularly.  Until next time...

Fresh Start. Clean Look

Now i can really say wow I haven't been on here in a long time.

I though since blogging is new cool fun thing to do, I'll start mine up again.  Since I was last on here, there have been a lot of changes, but a lot of things have stayed the same too.  I guess when I think about it though, nearly everything has been for the better.  So here goes:

Changes:
Last time I wrote, I was a mere high school senior about to enter semester 2 of her last year ever of compulsory schooling.  But even then it wasn't really compulsory.  Since then I've grown up, literally (about 1cm to be exact).  I've graduated high school.  I've passed my grade 8 violin.  I've been accepted into university (B. Applied Science/B. Mathematics).  I've completed two semesters of university (and not failed... so far).  I've met lots of new people and made lots of new friends (and lost some old ones... for better or worse).  I've turned 17 and 18 without too much drama.  I've got my own car and I can drive without an adult in the car.  AND.  I've got a real job.

Sames:
Now I come to actually write about it, I can't think of that much that has stayed the same.  Although, I still have the same amazing boyfriend, Stephen.  I'm still working as a tutor, which is actually starting to pull a fair bit of money in now.  I still play the violin, just not as much anymore.  I'm still just as unorganised if not more so now (and still easily distracted).  I'm still in QYO and the finale concert last weekend was AMAZING.  AND.  I still have the best group of friends in the world.


I guess that's all for now since I have exams in less than a week and I'm not nearly close to being ready for them. So until next time...
