As I may have mentioned, went to Blackpool with a few of my mates during half term week. We only went for a few days but it was so great!

Had to leave really early to get to catch the train into Birmingham, THEN we had to try and find the coach station THEN walk for miles trying to find it, only to find it was delayed 20 minutes, so we had to wait AAAAGES for it to get there... but even that was kind of fun :D

Took about 3 hours to travel up there. We all just sat talking, eating maoams all the way :D

Once we got to Blackpool we had to actually find the B&B we were staying at, all the while pulling very heavy suitcases behind us might I add!

Went out to the cinema the first night (ha ha - another long search for the cinema :P) Saw Cloverfield, which was quite good actually.

Next day was Pleasure Beach day! The Pepsi Max was closed due to bad weather, but we went on most of the other rides; Ice Blast, VALLHALA (got so wet on that!), Grand National, INFUSION, Irn Bru, Avalanche... you get the picture.

Went for a chinese while we were there, that was pretty good. And, I did of course take pictures all the while (which is what I'm going to leave you with... cheerio!)

Yup, the last Harry Potter book came out last friday, and having been a Harry Potter Fan since I was 11, I went up (with my cousins) to get the last book at the midnight opening. We were the first one's there (we arrived at about 11:20) and so were the first ones to get our books! I got discount on mine as well since my cousin worked at the store we got them from :P

Stayed up until 2.00 in the morning reading, until I remembered I had work that day and forced myself to go to sleep :P

Oh yeah, my first day of work - that went soooo well </sarcasm>. A bottle of wine fell off the conveyer belt and smashed all over the floor!!! Trust that to happen to me on my first day :P

Also saw the latest Harry Potter Film the other day (I swear, I'm not that obsessed :P). It was ok, I was in a good mood so I didn't pick out all the bits they missed out from the books (like I did with the previous films :P).

My computer's still not fixed, but I stayed at me Nan's last night so I'm using hers. Oh! And my Dad phoned last night from America! It's his birthday in a couple of weeks, so we're sending him something over. Nan says it has to be something light so it doesn't cost a fortune in postage :P

Anyways, I do believe I have ran out of stuff to say, so until I can next get onto a computer.

My mum has finally managed to get someone in to fix our shower. Only took her over two years, but better late than never :P

Oh yeah, Dougal (hamster) escaped again last Friday. He managed to push his cage door open and get out. Only problem was, my door was open... and so was the airing cuboard opposite my room. The thing is, the airing cuboard has big gaps in its floor... so yeah, he managed to get out of my room and into the floorboards :O Up until a few nights ago, we could hear him chewing and stuff, so I put him out some food and water to see if he'd come up and get it. I haven't heard him though in a bit... I'm just trying not to think the worst :(

I was thinking of making my own LJ layout next time I change it. I mean, I know I'm not the best layout maker in the world, but I thought I'd give it a go.

Saw Spiderman 3 yesterday. It was ok - the action parts of the film were fanta-TASTIC! BUT - I did find that there was an awfull lot of cheeeese in it. At some parts I was think "wtf? I came here to see Spiderman, not this crap" :P

That's all, I forgot to take my umbrella to school today, so I got drenched on the way home - so need to get changed and shizzle :P

Currently eating this pasta shizzle my sister just cooked. Well, by cooked I mean she shoved it in a microwave for a couple of minutes then slopped it onto a plate :P Meh, just realised I'm talking about pasta, I'll stop.

went to the cinema and Bowling on Saturday for my mate's birthday. I won bowling!!! I could not believe it, cause I'm usually really bad at bowling :P

And, and, I got lost in the cinema :O. We saw hot fuzz, and I went to the toilets half way through the film, only when I got back, I went into what I thought was our row, only to get some really weird looks from a couple of people. I then looked up, and there was my mates sitting four rows up, with big grins on there faces, trying not to laugh! Oh, what an idiot I felt like :P.

At least I didn't fall asleep during the film, unlike my great friend Gemma, who's gentle snoring I had to put up with for the last half hour of the film. I would have woke her up, but she looked so sweeeeet, and I couldn't bring myself to do it :P

Anyway, that is all people, as I have photos I need to upload, 'till next time.

So far I've got my results back for biology, physics, chemistry, history (paper 1) and maths, and I should be getting the rest of them within the next few weeks.

I don't want to sound like I'm bragging, so I'll try not too, but I did very good in biology, surpringly brilliant in physics and pretty good in chemistry, maths and history. So far I've got 3 Bs, 1 A and 1 A* (bet you can't work out which is which :P).

Anyway, in other news, my Dad's girlfriend is flying in from America next week. Completely scared about that, but it should be ok. This weekend I'm going bowling and cinema-ing for my mate's birthday. Which reminds me, I probably should get her a card or something O.o

That's it, I want to go download some new fonts and stuff, and I need to make a new layout for my mysapce, since I haven't changed it in ages.
