Oh what a day!
I was a good girl. I did all my work at school. I rushed home and did some more work. Then I missed the first bus. My all of two mins. To be honest if I'd looked at the time timeable earlier I would have caught it but oh well. So I waited for the next one. But that was an X5 which only takes me to the Market place where Rob lives, have an hour walk in the dark.
So then my one was supposed to come at 5:30. I waited I waited some more. I worked on my knitting, Fran's wrap with sleeves from Rebecca. It's knit in fluffy mohair blend and on slippy metal needles I was dropping stitches everywhere. That was probably due to the sheer coldness of my fingers. I was also doing Fisherman's rib which for me requires far more concentration to manke sure don't go back into normal rib.
I waited some more
Then just to spite me like the cliche at 6pm three buses come at once. I finally get to Robs.
He's waiting at the bus stop in the car.
He's been following my bus around Warminster.
Apparently he tried to phone my mobile but it was at home charging because the battery was flat. So he rang my house just after I'd left at 5. Mum told him I'd gone to the bus stop. So he'd been expecting me half an hour later. So he was all worried. All because I'd forgotton my phone.
Needless to say I wasn't flavour of the month.
But I rectified that with my relentless cheerful mood and happy kisses.
We had a nice evening. Just chilling out.
And a great chat in the car on the way home about money and futures and marriage. I feel all nice and assured...He's going to be a great husband...:-)
Gah....I'm feeling all soppy because me and Carly are sat here looking at wedding dresses...:-)

Not knitting related but...
Looky...I look like somethingoff Little house on the Prairie!
Or I could be A Christmassy person!
Excuse the poor quality photos, the little web cam cannot cope with the beautiful dusk. Dusk...I always wanted to be a dusky maiden...lol...:-)
If Santa's listening a proper digital camera with flash would be greatly appreciated....

Blah
Sarah and I went to dance today at lunchtime. Waited for a detention to finish. Only to be told/asked by Miss B to go away. The year 11's are doing their exam work. We went and got changed. The year 11's weren't using all the space. Sarah and I could have fitted in a corner. That doesn't matter. What mattered was the obnoxiously rude way we were told/ask to leave. Because we only wanted to dance for fun. I know Miss B. is having a bad day because of Presentation evening, but we all are. I'm just as bad as anyon else for misplacing my anger, but I do try not to be rude. Try my very best.
I'm also cross because of the school christmas party, which atm I am paying for out of my savings. ~We did a questionnair and people chose what they wanted. Only now what they want is too expensive for them and none of them are coming. So my £55 hall hire fee is wasted, as is the money we took out of the sicth form fund for the dj. I dislike immensely the sttudue of people here. IF they want something they can organise it themselves.
Tonights homework list so far:-
- Dance Notation to learn.
- French Questions
- Art Pictures.
Stupid presenation evening as well. Oh well back to the grind stone.

On a wonderful day like today
Okay mad moment over.
Walking to school today I had a thought. Yes I know that thinking isn't usually alex's strong point, but walking to school brings out all sorts of blog worthy thoughts and normally by the time I get to computer I forget them all. Anyway back to blog worthy thoughts.
Never have I been more aware that an Englishman's home is his castle. As I walk to school, I walk past a terrace of former council houses that the occupiers have bought. They are all basically the same house, yet each has been personalised beyond belief. There is a house that's been painted peach, another with christmas lights on already. Some have perfect manicured lawns, arty wooden blinds, and disgner twigs in the windows. Some have fluffy net curtains, garden overflowing with colour and twee little plastic animals pinned to the walls.
This got me think as to what my house will be like when I marry Rob. Our tastes can be quite different. I love the ikea look, but with lots of interesting bits and bobs..Rob's not into clutter. That may be a source of fun...me cluttering and him putting away...lol
I'd love a futon in the sparre room so we could pull it out and lounge on it on rainy days in and this one is only£99 And then we could have friends to stay.
I'd also love a big soft fluffy sofa for curling up on and watching dvd's. This one is £245

Being ill is nasty
kniting wise I've contaminated quite a few of the pressies I've been knitting. I'll take pics now and post later when everyon'es recieved. The first lot of Rob's christmas presents arrived today so that's all nice
It's my dad's birthday tomorrow... he'll be all of 45! Gosh my dad only five away from 5 - OH! hehe....Rob and I have bought him a CD by Katie Melua. He likes her.
Still only two offers from Unis so atm I can only go to Bristol or Winchester.
Rob fortunately got paid today so he's not scared about money anymore. We had a great chat last night on the phone..some how I knew he needed to talk so I got him to ring me...leaving me with only 12p credit on my phone. I'll have to top that up on friday. All donations welcome...;)
Anyone been watching strictly come dancing? I love that program. All the mock drama and tears and celebs learning something that's really hard. It makes me want to find some sequins and learn how to dance properly. One day I'll convince Rob that we do need to learn how..lol
Any way that's all for now..nothing interesting happenning yet!

Updating in what seems like an age...
So far on the ol' homework list:-
- Dance Essay
- History Notes
- History Website Browsing
- Art work
Looking good neh? I'll do the history this afternoon. Lots of frees as PE is option when you're a sixth former [thank goodness!] and our dance teacher is away so I've done the work she set for our lesson today already. Yes I am good!Everyone be proud of me! *does a little dance*
Today in Alex - land, Alex is wearing film star hair and film star red lipstick woth jeans and a black jumper. apparently it's the look of the moment...but I've always done this! Again she is as always ahead of fashion!Film star hair comes easily when you've got hair like mine which is practically down to your waist....I put it up in a high pony tail, wrap a strand around the bobble, then divide the tail into four, and twist each strand into a loop and pin. I have to keep topping up the lippy, which incidently has the cooloiest name of 'Moulin Rouge'
Just had a tutorial lesson. The wishy washy liberal anglican vicar is coming to be asked questions about religion an science so I've asked alot of nice difficult theological ones:-> Just raising the bar a tad, and besdies there all ones I want answering anyway!
I'm desperately trying to remember the cool song from 'Strictly Ballroom' where the couple are dancing and.. update in the momentI REMEMBERED IT!! Time after time! well the tune anyway! That's been bugging me all day!
On the knitting front!! I'm knitting a cabled scarf for a teachers birthday, one of those doody Rebecca online wrap with sleeves for Fran and trying to finish those blasted mittens foe mum.

I'm ready for my close up.
Current work load.
- French Detailed Cwk Plan in French
- Dance Essay
- French Pros and Cons on Cloning
- History Notes
- Art Cels
- Art Paintings
- Art Essay
That helped alot. Some times it's good just to write it all down.
Tonight I have to speak at a parents evening as Head Girl. I'm not nervous, just hoping and praying that what I say is going to be relevent. I got the position on the strength of my public speaking ability so I'm just going to have to hope it actually shows up. Oh it will. I've given sermons, I've won comps. I just have to big and brave and get on with it.
Half term was ace, especially because of the extra days we had at the start, 10 days instead of 7. I did work, I knitted, and I rested. I needed a rest to get my brain back in gear. It was nice to see Rob somuch too. His freshly decorated room looks amazing now. The purple is more purple than I imagined, yet really works with the red. Sometimes all it needs iss a contrasting colour.
My UCAS form has been sent off, and I've had an email from the University of Bristol saying that they've recieved my appplication. I'm starting to feel nervous now about going. It's the money issue. I really don't want to get into debt. I also feel weird about being away from Rob. It's going to be a real test to our relationship. Though I'd prefer not to go and get married like NOW! but I know that's not possible feasible or even right as it's just me being selfish. Though I feel selfish for putting so much strain on Rob for going. I know I have to go. Ugh.
And to be honest my life is not even complicated. I'm living in a country where I enjoy freedom, health and no fear for my life. I do not go hungry. My salvation is assured.
Or is it? I'm failing so much at the moment sometimes I wonder if I've turned away almost completely. I feel hypocritical singing hymns in church, I cannot reconcile my self to the arguments going on in my head. Why do we disregard some bits of scripture and adher to others so completely?
IF pre destination is right, Did God intend the world to be so awful as it is today?
Why does doctrine cloud my mind, why does the Word make no sense?
