) but mum is making me study really hard. What's the point? I know I musn't be complaicent but its not as if her ridiculous theory that they will up the pass mark by 10% (from 80% to 90%) will come true. Nobody else is doing revision and sometimes I get sooooo
because I have to revise. If I've been constantly been getting over 90% then I don't think I'll flunk on the real day...
MSN won't sign me or Lara in so we're stuck dumb on IM. It's not that bad. It reminds us both of DDays. That's something special which we'll never forget. How we laugh at it now! But those were good times...I'm talking to her right now. But we're both tired and not really paying attention
My computer is loading so slow. Maybe it's because I'm trying to do 20 different things with it
To do list:
1. Finish and upload neo content
2. Re-vamp layout and menu with new proffesional style
Yep, you read correctly. It is a personal site, but I feel it has restricted growth space because of the menu limits. I really do wanna write more but I can't. I'm off to do revision. Against my will..... Tuesday 3rd May
Oooh I have to make a campaign about the Lib. Dems ready for tommorow. There is so much to do:
Today my cousin took me out to London. We spent ages looking for scoubidou strings. We tried Clintons, Cards Galore and even Newsagents. Finally we went to somewhere i've heard of but never been to. That was 'Hamelys'. Oh my Gosh there were 7 floors of toys, toys and toys and toys so much toys! I've never seen so many: train tracks, dolls, balls and of course the bear factory. There were these amazing flying saucers and lots and lots of toy racing cars. Some were electronic and some came with tracks and remotes and some were just vintage cars which were priced at �20-�50!! Oh and we saw this giantic giraffe going for �3500!!! My cousin is obessed with Thomas and thinks he's 'da man'. That is soooo like him....
I visited lots of palces in London I've heard of and always wanted to go to e.g: Liesceter Square, Trafalager Square, Region Street etc. Oh and the best bart was when we went to see HITCH! To be honest it's not that good a film and I've seen much better but I enjoyed none the less. We came back in time for Strictly Dance Fever and the family's favourite: DOCTOR WHO. I didn't understand this episode because I missed a lot of it but we taped it (luckily). I want to watch it tonight but 4 of the six people who are addicted to it have seen it. By the way, there are six of us in this house. Now the whole family are hooked (excuse the pun) on scoubidous. My Uncle (who was nine years old when they were created) has been plaiting them for me, my Aunty's been cooking but when she came back wshe was talking and scoubidouing. Toby wants to learn how to do them but he is too young. Hanif (cousin) and my mum are just as clueless as to what they are or how to do them as each other.
I've been so spoilt this holiday. I've had things adn experiences taht I never would have had at home. I'm only slightly homesick like in Hamelys I turned around and expected to see Dad waiting in the queue behind me and I said to Hanif (who was infact behind me) 'Dad...' I was looking around and I felt sad when I scanned for Dad because he would be so happy about all these toys and would enjoy picking out a racing car for Toby. He takes intrest in that sort of thing: toy shops and reading interesting facts about toys and giving opinions. Oh well, that was the only bad pointabout today. Apart from that, I haven't really had a chance to be homsick. I've had a lot more experience here than Toby and he seems to be coping. Dad would have been watching Dr.W when we were watching it. That gives me comfort that we are connected in that way.
I can't be bothered to write any more..Oh wait, no. May 5th - we're holding a mock election. Here is where my idiots school of contradictions and oxymorons come in. Ok, so on Friday 5 girls from 6th Form come up and talk to us about the parties standing in the elections. So the stupid Mrs.Serenturk goes and says: "Go join the party you believe in" Which is understandable, right? But at the end she says: "Oh yeah and take into consideration that we should have an equal number of people in each party, so join a party which has less people in it" First of all that is GRAMAMATICLY INCORRECT which pissed me off (so join a party which has FEWER people in it) So what's the point of joining a party which you believe in, when you should join a party with fewer people in it? A majority of people were transferred from their originating party to a party they otherwise would have never dreamed of joining. Ugh I hate Mrs.Serenturk - she is NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING like some teachers I know...How I will love it in senior school! Speaking of teachers, my cousin wants to be one...I dunno, should he?!

I'm such an idiot. I really did mean to go to the library today but I totally forgot. I won't say where I was, but I might post it on a password protected blog, even though I don't have one yet....I must get one. I would only tell my closet friends the password, then some normal friends, but never people I easily get into fights with. Talking about fights and stuff: Cerys and myself are proudly engaged in yet another fight
. I don't know why I should be so proud, because we get into fights so often that the class is used to it. We randomly decided that the trouse we were at was getting boring so we officially have declared war. Without saying a word: impressive, don't you think?
I'm spending more and more time on Neopets, call me childish but it's so addictive. I only go on when I've done my homwork, and have nothing better to do with my time. Except that will all change because Emma and James are coming over every day now (from next Monday onwards). How unfair: they'll come over at quarter to four and at that time I'll still be stuck in lessons. Damn I wish we were let out of school earlier, but that's all part of being tied down in a private education. I don't know if you know, but I'm a scholar at St.Helens so unfortunately I'm staying on. I'll miss loads of things, things I would see, things I would do as well as stupid little stuff that without it, it wouldn't be St.Helens. The practice S.A.Ts are going well for me and I'm getting 95%+ on all of them....Ok, so people will call me braggy when they read this, but this is my blog. I should be entitled to a little bragging once in a while...
Oh wait, no....I won't write a private blog..no-no-no! What should i write in there? I wouldn't be much different than this blog: I suppose I could write how I really about people who come to this site, people who don't, fitz and everything..teachers included! But that would be too much bother...From now on, I won't write about too private stuff: or keep it without names so that LMC (Little Miss Cerys) and others won't read what I really think of them...
Friday 24th June
Before I start ranting and raving, I just wanna say Happy birthday! I would make a new happy birthday layout, but I'm sticking with this theme maybe forever! A constantly changing layout isn't original or easy to do, or easy to navigate in my opinion. Note: The following is just my thoughts, feelings etc. You might find it inappropriate but this is my site where I can write whatever I want, wherever I want, whenever I want. I'm not unfair in thinking this or writing the following; most probably you deserve what I write. Ok, read on at your own risk...
Wow, big thunderstorm that was! And don't discriminate just because I'm 11. A) I've had enough of that lately B) I've lived in England all my life, I think I know British weather by now. C) All the weather-related incidents happening before 1994, I've heard enough about from Dad, Mum, M. G. Rover and all other annoying elders.
Ugh, I'm really pissed at Lara. She is such a hypercrite: she was HOOKED on Neopets and in class she said: 'It sucks and it's for loosers.' Yesterday Rose stole my chair and she said 'Shut up Gemma, you don't know anything'. I didn't get a hand-out, guess what she says 'Tough'. So to return the favor, she had a hard word in the spelling contest and I say 'that's life'. She complains that this other girl got two chances: OMG, her group had two chances. She has started hanging around with Rose, which turned her into a bitch. God, why did I ever like that girl?
P.s I know why Becki broke up with her: she showed off loads about getting Dorothy in WOZ. Ok, nice...but take in to consideration OUR feelings! I realise it's over, but impressions never fade...
I tried to make a wrist band for my D.T project, but it turned into a shoulder band. Ugh I can't master the needle and I hate sowing. I want mum to do it for me. She already has done most of it, though I don't care because I know Kaajal bought extra material, used a sowing machine and did a zip (her mum did that). If your smart and you know me, then you'll know what I'm saying.
I have to eat at ASK for Anji's birthday party. Ugh I hate ASK, had a bad rep. with it for years.
Anyway, I have to turn off the computer. As always, mum is paranoid I will be electricuted so I must turn off the computer and go downstairs. Boy would you like to be in my shoes right now...
I wonder what Shivani will say when she reads the above...
[The rant/moan begins here]
To tell you the truth, when I first got the project sheet, I was like: 'WTF? This must be an end-of-SATs joke!!' Boy was I ever wrong! If I'm stressing out now I dare not imagine my half term holidays: everyday I'll be working on my maths project! To be honest, I don't know what to do after I've done the plan/sketch and chosen my furniture. It's STUPID that we have to do a plan and a sketch. Damnit, what's the difference? Oh yeah, one's birdseye and ones not, well sorry but it's the most pointless thing ever to repeat it. I can't believe I'm following instructions from somebody who writes: complete with less [instead of fewer] errors and a grumpy grandma who has made countless grammamatical and spelling mistakes on the sheet. She calls herself a English teacher. Conclusion: This project is a f***ing waste of time, we have no outcoming gain and it has been written by idiots who can't spell: 'Syllable' to save their lives. Not so much Mr.Ronalds. He's OK. English errors escape him. He teaches maths. I'm just generally pissed off with Grover. I wonder why....

Friday 3rd June
Today I did the smallest bit on my maths project which finished the whole section off. I take now relax during the weekend and IOW because all I need to do is:
Then I went round to Lara's first we played outside (this was when it was actually hot. Its raining, thundering and lightening-ing right now!) with this dog called Chole. She's so addictive! I didn't see James (neighbour) at all...I think he's shy. Well, I saw he sat in an awkward position just to see lara -
lol. We had the best lunch: Pizza and Chips! Lol. Then we played outside more, trying to teach Chole how to drop and fetch (unsuccesfully!
) Finally, did Mean Girls four minute run and watched up till half point. Then mucked round on computer for a while, then spending the last few minutes outside before it began to pour down! Thankfully then Dad came
and we hugged and said goodbye and of course 'talk to you on msn?' 'course!'

[edit]18/05/05[/edit] It's arts week so we've been doing postcards in I.T; boring! I made my own background and Mr.H was like: How? So..how did you make it? etc. And originally he was stupid enough to think that the computer had made it as an auto-gradient. That pissed me off. I'm sitting next Sheena (
) and Saajidah who is my very good mate. Ok, enough from me, I'll properly post it tonight. If I'm not swamped under by my homework. I have to do 2 hours of it tonight. Byee!
I've been juggling loads of things lately. First, my unbelievably huge maths project (which I am falling behind on!) , my binka (
), my owl service (I don't know what task I was supposed to do!! Argh!) as well as my curved stitching which I haven't even started. Tommorow: curved stitching (starting and finishing), obtaining all furniture for my en suite, finishing my 3rd wall and any other homework that may curse me. I'm looking forward to the maths project, but it really is a lot to do. I'm ahead of everyone in my class (from my knowledge) but tommorow I will zoom ahead when I finish my curved stitching. My opinion is that is wasn't thoroughly thought out enough thought out.
Just A Quick Shout
Well thanks Gem for letting me shout out even though I have no idea how to effing work HTML urgh it bugs me. Anyway I am halfway to a VK 530 mobile!! Yep its one of those annoying times when you ask your parents for something and they say 'earn it' that is sooo irritating. Gem is real nice for letting me do this even though I am going to muck up! Gem: �_� so thats everything I think. No wait I have to do another subject. Blergghh
Ok it was totally not worth it. All those nerves, trying to remember learns! It didn't mean anything. The examiner was REALLY boring, she didn't laugh or smile at anything, me and Lara D felt totally embarrassed and humiliated etc. I did my funny routine in Glass Slipper, nothing. I lay on the table in Professor Bosh and Quangle Wangle, nothing. ARGH how annoying. Thats about it from me, see ya soon. Luv ya xx.

[Computer]
The whole internet connection thing has been slow lately. I was getting tired of re-loading neopets so I randomly clicked on to freewebs. Ugh, I hate a slow computer. Guess what, I've got a idioticly slow one. Either that or I'm just really really fast. I'd prefer the latter
Though it's not true...
I had my last exam in junior school today. Freaky. Ouch I took so long getting ready! I didn't provide a copy of the script! I did Trouble at Home by Penny Philips (which became popular in 6M after I chose it!) and Let's hope that Kaajals & Shainas, Shivani & Sheenas and Lara x2s goes better. Actually make that mine goes better. No, that's selfish. I know, let's leave it to the proffesionals....

Part 1 Proffesional: Layout
Yep, new layout. One I'm content with. For once. The previous one was getting too....childish? No, not the right word...Old? No...Well, this whole weekend I've been turning my site proffessional, away from the childish and restricted menus and layouts. I feel so good that I've turned my site into a page where it's easy to see where you wanna go and what sub-page is under what section. So I suppose the old layout had a restricted menu with a lot of scrolling to do, wasn't very unique and the section names were very vague. Retired; the old layout, the old menu and the old Toffie 'n' Maple was retired.
I'm just going to finish off, neaten up and generally perfect the new layout; maybe muck around with the new menu. Then, when I'm online next time, I'll be working on the Reads section. Due to the new menu, I'm going to be scrapping, creating and editing a lot of the pages as well as transferring them to geocities and vica versa. Something that needs desperate work is the 'Your Site' section, as I'm starting it from new with just a few pages from the old 'You' section.
