…
Just wondering, how many of you actually read my blogs?! … drop a comment.
I MIGHT deleat it =/
Long time no speak!
So much is happening in my life at the moment its hard to imagine where to start! Life is absolutely splendid and normal you could say!
I’ve not posted a proper heart to heart blog to you readers in a long while as I’ve being far to busy or tired! Even though its currently 1.15 am and I need to get up at 7am tomorrow to go to college I thought I’d talk a bit about what I’ve being up to and my feelings… because for some reason there are people out there who want to know about my life. Like zomg!
College
So last year I did my A1s, studying Media, textiles and drama. I didn’t enjoy much of last year what so ever as I was a regular victim to bullying etc hence found it hard to concentrate in lessons. This resulted in my attendance decreasing and during the summer holiday the disappointing grade results which I spoke to you about previously.
So I decided instead of taking a gap year, which I’m so glad I didn’t do!, I’d join another college. North Warwickshire and Hinckley college.
Im taking a national diploma in Media there.
Lessons =
Professional Practice
Visual Communication
Design
Contextual studies
Moving Image
And Digital arts
Pretty cool huh? Some of the stuff we’ve learnt so far has being really interesting.
We have 4 projects on at the moment, which is one major reason why im so busy
1) Visual Communication project to create 3 posters designed around comfort, fear and anger. I’m using photoshop to create these, first timer on the program and might I say I’m not that bad at it!
2) Moving image project is to create a 4-6minute movie opening which has to have some form of chase scene in it. (This is due in in two weeks and im still stuck for fucking ideas!!!!!!)
3) Design project to create a poster which has the colour black on it, the texture of leather, evolve around the year 1921, has leather on it, has something to do with transportation and the quote, “that’s the way I like it baby” (everybody got given different things for theirs) …… I basically decided to do sumit about the miners strike in 1921… that all links together 😀 I just need to think of a good poster idea… again that’s due in soon!
4) Digital Arts assignment is to create a folder brief about any movment of choice. My group are doing work on the 60’s…. we just need to START this. Ahaha
But all in all im enjoying college! Its busy and hard work, but A LOT of fun…. I learnt how to use final cut pro today also.
Friendships
When joining a new college the main thing I was worried about, wasn’t lessons or getting on with my teachers as im sure I’d do GREAT at that… it was the fear about making friends. In my last college I was that quiet girl youd always see sat by herself at the back of the library or near the front of class. Yep, totally different to what YOU people read and see via my youtube.
But through youtube I tend to be myself… and I was afraid to be myself out in public you could say, however at this college I thought “fuck it … im going to be who I am and see what people think!”
First day. I admit I was that shy girl … I made one friend which was nice =]
Second day. I wasn’;t that shy girl anymore… I spoke up in class, I walked over and introduced myself to people and I got accepted quickly into a group of friends! …
Its being about a month I’ve being at this college, and I hang around with all these friends during and after college and I’ve learnt to love them dearly.
One of them, who grabbed my attention from the first day is of course Jordan. We’ve being going out for 2 weeks now, and I know some people think that’s a bit quick to go into a relationship with sometbody … as I’ve only known him for over a month. But if you people could experience the happiness Jordan has given to me, you wouldn’t want to ever let him go. He’s helped me through a lot and we spend A LOT of time together… I even introduced him to some of my youtube friends at….. (new section time I think)
……
18th Birthday
…. My 18th birthday!
Basically October 2nd, which was a Thursday Jordan came back to my house after college… we get Fridays off of college which is good! So he slept over… we had a …. Fun night, hehe. Over slept… *cough* and I woke up to like….3 birthday cards and one present, which was from Benjys family. Was nice of them J
I was a bit sad on my birthday… even tho my gran gave me £100 and my mum gave me an IOU £100 (basically she doesn’t want me to put it in my bank as she knows I’ll spend it), brother got me a litre of vodka and …. Well, that was all I got really =/ oh yeah mum got me a necklace, which im afraid to tell her…. Is horrible! Its sterling silver aswell, oh ek! Meh!
ANYHOO …. After morning of shit cards ahhaa me and jordan went to my grandma’s for birthday lunch. Oh my how I was surprised, I was just expecting a sanwhich but my gran made a buffet! She even got me a birthday cake and champagne! OMG. I love my gran 😀 she’s lovleyyyyyyyyyyyyy. Hehe. She loved Jordan aswell =] Yayyyyyy
So after that we hung at my house for a bit then Jordan went home and I met up with Toni where we went to Birmingham to see a concert. Amanda Palmer… it was an AMAZING CONCERT OEFHGSDOGHSDOGH DOGH 😀 😀 I got to the front row, touched Amanda …. The dancers where like ontop of me… I could feel her sweat on me.. the music was amazing… the acts was amazing…. The costumes were superb *sigh* it was AMAZING =D
Front row. Front row in the middle. Arghhh hehe. Ok sorry…
Ater the concert we picked Jordan up again then slept over mine.
Toni left the next morning and me and Jordan went to London where we had a gathering bbq at NSG’s house! 😀 It was my idea to host a gathering on this day and NSG suggested we had it at his place, so it just turned into the NSG bbq… but oh well 😀 thanks for the awesome food NSG ahaha seriously tho, he’s an amazing guy … I can’t even express how much I care for NSG.
Saw lots of people there, like doug! I’ve not seen doug in SOOOOOOOOOOO long now its crazy, was lovely seeing him again 😀
Being the youtubers that we are we made a youtube video, which was basically me filming the guys all acting like chavs singing to “badman” … where I make a 5 second appearance in it. Yay! Ahaha 😀 it was fun…. If ya wanna watch that video its on dougs youtube … so search epiphanized =]
After the bbq gathering me, Jordan and SPENCER went to Leicester square and went to that huge arcade place where im not even going to attempt to spell the name. Hung around there for an hour wasting money on funfunfun games ahahah 😀 also Jordan brought us all very fattening drinks from starbucks…. Extra extra whippy cream. Mmmm. Adding to my lovely lady bumps rather than my tummy I like to say XD
OK so after that we went to a pub had a few drinks THEN went to see Avenue Q. Amazing play!
So that was all from London, spencer came back to Leicester with me and Jordan and slept over my house… then the next day the three of us went to Leicester town and looked at the new “High cross” area… which is basically the new shopping area where we have an awesome new apple store… which is seriously awesome! Ahaha, hence that quick video I made on my youtube (I promis I’ll be uploading a proper video soon!)
We also saw some cool acrobat acts on a stage in the middle of town…. No idea what that was all about, some radio thing… with bellydancers and fire and shizzle like that… don’t ask.
Spencer went home =[
Then me and Jordan went back to mine …. That was fun. Hehe.
