- I realise this is going to sound very scrooge-like of me but I'm really not in the mood for Christmas. The fact that all my friends are home from university is a plus but my lack of money will stop me doing anything at all. If I get money for Christmas I don't really want to waste it all during these holidays as it will have to last me a long time. I'd be feeling more positive too if we'd actually got something planned for New Years Eve but nothing is planned at all which is a bummer.
- My Legally Blonde boxset came today and I watched the first one. I'm actually disappointed with myself that I'd never seen it as I absolutely loved it, can't wait to watch the second one but I think I'm going to leave that for the holidays when I'm extremely bored.
- I have a Psychology mock exam in the morning and I'm nowhere near prepared for it, I did quite a bit of revision at school today but that only covered one out of the three topics I'm doing. Originally I planned to do some more work when I got home at 2pm. Then I saw my boxset had arrived and couldn't stop myself. It's now 8pm and I still haven't started, I really need to get my arse into gear.
- Right now Gossip Girl should be on, but ITV2 doesn't have it on for some reason which has upset me greatly. I find it difficult enough to go a week without watching it let alone any longer...I'm praying that it's back on next week.
- Apparently the snow is returning tomorrow, I'm praying that the weather forecast is wrong. Snow is the one thing I can't cope with, I get too scared on the ice and think I'm going to fall and I just generally hate the cold. If it's light snow that barely settles then it's fine because it looks quite pretty but once it starts causing disruptions then it's too much. My one pet hate is when the snow turns into brown slush... it's just VILE.
- My UCAS has been processed and I have received acknowledgements of my application from 2 of my 5 universities. I'm really hoping I get an offer or two before Christmas just to cheer me up a bit. Being at home whilst the majority of my friends are at university has made me even more motivated to go and I'm counting down the months until September.
- Just remembered that tomorrow I can change over my old number to my new phone and send my old Blackberry to one of those mobile recycling places and get £97 for it. I'm hoping the money comes quick as I'm getting desperate, although I can't remember whether I chose to get a check or have it paid straight into my account. I'm hoping it was the paid straight into the account as I will get the money a lot quicker than with a cheque. Last time I didn't get the money until two weeks after posting my phone due to waiting for the cheque and then having to visit my bank. This time it would take much longer due to Christmas and the bad weather delaying things.
