-Finally had my last day of sixth form today before my 3 week Christmas holiday. I have to say it was the worst last day I have ever had. My double lesson of Psychology consisted of revision and a mock exam. At the end of each term we have what is called "Celebration Assembly", which in sixth form normally is just games and awards. The past two years we've had pass the parcel and other novelty games. However this year they decided to have a quiz...I wouldn't mind if everyone could take part but there were only 8 people involved which just seemed annoyingly boring to me.
-I have spent most of my evening trawling the Boots 3 for 2 offers to find Christmas presents for my brother, his girlfriend and myself. Being signed up to the Money Saving Expert emails I found myself wanting to purchase the Soap&Glory set pictured below, which from tomorrow is being reduced from £60 to £25 which is an absolute bargain for what it contains. At the full price it is in the 3 for 2 offer but I'm confused as to whether it still will be at the reduced price, I'm hoping it is because then I can buy that, my brothers girlfriends present and get a freebie for myself.

- I received an early Christmas present today which was lovely. My brothers girlfriend has got me an ASOS voucher which I think is extremely thoughtful as I'm always ordering stuff from there. With my current lack of funds this will enable me to still purchase new items which is great.
- I did manage to find a present I wanted to buy my brother which was a Leeds Rhinos book as he is a huge supporter. However the book is only available from the official website and with the cheapest postage option being £5 with no guarantee it'll arrive for Christmas I decided to give it a miss and hope that the store in town will have it.
- Tomorrow I'm going to have an extremely boring day consisting of wrapping presents and writing Christmas cards. I may also be going to a gig in the evening which should be good as I haven't been to one in a while as they're not my sort of thing anymore.
- Finally, I phoned up Orange to arrange my number transfer which isn't happening until Monday, which is extremely annoying as I am without a working number until then unless I give everyone a temporary number which isn't worth the hassle. This just means that if people try to contact me then they can't unless they use BBM or Facebook to do so. Oh well at least I don't have to think of excuses if somebody invites me somewhere I don't want to go.
