Revsion Time

..is here. I'm four weeks behind last year, and yet I'm still here. Methinks my priorities are not straight.

Though I have just looked over mt transport vocab for my French exam. Go Alex! Tonight I have an hour to work on history too. Berlin blockcade and airlift for definate. Depending on what we go through in lessons of course. School decided no one was going to have study leave this year so I have to fit all this in my frees and after school. Makes it slightly difficult as I can't carry everything to school everyday. Like a years worth of notes.

Rob is being a sweety tonight and dropping me at work, saving me a mad rush. I think he has to take a video back or something.

Knitting news:-
  • Started a Clapotis in some cheap variagated acrylic. I am so NOT a yarn snob. It's lovely, orange, pinky red, purple and black blend.
  • Have two lace scarves on the go, one in dk mohair, one in fingering weight wool.
  • Am thinking of doing a coronet from knitty on a stone colour.

The art exam comes to a close...

I've painted a big picture A1 size, of my Rob from various angles playing his guitar, in warms oranges and yellows and red, with blue and white for contrast. No black because I hate using black in a painting. I feel lit makes things look dead. It's recognisably him, even if it doens't look accurate. So I'm happy.

I'm going to do a sillk painting now...

It's so unfair.

Please note I am extremely angry at the world for it's injustice towards me. I know people are dying of hunger and there are loads of economic problems.

At the moment I'm distraught because the holiday we had planned with some people i know has fallen through. They split up, and so because we're christians and have to keep away from the appearance of evil and not be left alone at any stupid time means that ive wasted about £400.

Only now they're back together and seem to be going to Reading. How conveniant. I feel evil for even thinking this. They so obvious;ly didn't want to come with us and will have abetter time at Reading.

Leave me and Rob with the problem of £180 missing from my uni fund, because we had to buy the ferry tickets early. So what's my legal status? DO they have to pay me? is it polite to pay me back since they were adamant they wanted to come?

We asked some other friends, but the guys rents aren't happy with it, and the girl won't come on her own. Atm i'm willing to pay for another friend to come and keep her company.

If it wasn't for the fact Rob has to live with his rent, i'd go on our own in the blink of an eyelid.

I don't care if anyone reading htis thinks i'm a cold hearted selfish blanket blank. Heck I know I am. Just for once, just for effing once, I would like something I organise to go right. I'd like to be able have a nice time. I'd like to go away without my rents like normal people do.

Why do people assume we're going to sleep together? For goodness sake. We've been together for 2 years+. We've had ample opportunity. We've been left home alone and you didn't come back to find us at it like bunnies. We have self control. We're coping. We've fallen asleep int he back of a truck. Nothings happenned? What is your problem? It's like you want me to fail so you can gloat.

Okay rant over.
