- I've had a rather productive day so far, although not on the revision front like I planned. Managed to drag myself out of bed early so I had a full day ahead. Cleaned the kitchen from top to bottom which took a while due to my brother leaving it a bombsite. Emptied the dishwasher too which is one of my pet hates for some unknown reason. I also reactivated my Lovefilm account so that we can rent Kinect games to try out before paying nearly £40 for them. So far on my rental list I have Kinect Sports, Your Shape Fitness Evolved, Kinect Motion Sports and Kinectimals. I really hope they send the first two on the list as then me and my brother each have one we want. I can only imagine his face if it was Kinectimals that came. I really want to try the fitness one as if it's good I'll start a fitness routine with it and use it everyday to become healthier. It's a much cheaper alternative to the gym and it's from the comfort of your own home (I think I'd feel self conscious going to a gym). I did try Wii Fit but I found that it was quite boring as all it seemed to be was balancing and yoga which isn't  really going to burn as many calories as this Kinect one.
- It's been a good day as my Sex & the City boxset has arrived - I have to admit I should have probably left it until after my exams to buy it as I know I'll be sat watching that instead of doing revision...that's what I did with the Gossip Girl boxsets during my last exams. At least I will never be bored and I think if I watch it in bed at a reasonable time it might actually help me to sleep...wishful thinking.
- Back to sixth form tomorrow which I'm not looking forward to at all...as it means it's only a week till my first exam and I'm in no way prepared for it. I'm planning a weeks worth of cramming which should mean I'll be okay, afterall I've been learning for this exam for nearly 3 years now which is quite depressing.
- I'm still rather confused about why I wake up everyday with a banging headache...which I think is to blame for me staying in bed so late everyday, as I know when I get up I'll be in pain. I'm hoping it's just a phase and it'll stop soon as I think I'm becoming dependent on Nurofen...and even more depressingly I've nearly run out of them!
- I really fancy having a cup of coffee with a drop of Bailey's in it (if we still have some left)...I think it gives the coffee a great taste and helps to sweeten it and make it creamier. Last time I made it I put a bit too much Bailey's in which didn't taste good but I'm hoping this time I'll make it perfectly.
