9.32am
So as I have been persuading myself to update for at least the last 2 weeks, I suppose I should bring myself to. There have many goings-on in the world of... well, me. Let's stop it with the clichés. Basically, stuff happened.
School finished, firstly. Which was a blessing really, seeing as Miss Stent (my Electronics teacher) would have maimed me if she'd looked at how little of the coursework I handed in on the deadline. But I'm currently (ahem) working to finish what I need to, so there's an improvement there.
Then there was carol singing, which was fun. How could it not be? Everyone signing descants and me just trying to keep vaguely in tune. Always good. And then Becca & I went to get the money at the doors, and everyone rejected us. There were at least 5 houses in a row that didn't answer. We think they saw us coming and ran away.
Zoë and Gemma's 16th was next, which was also fun (from my perspective). Perhaps it wasn't from others, but I hope I wasn't too annoying/boring/unhelpful. But hey, it looks like people will learn from it, so maybe it's good after all. And if they don't learn from it, then we have some drama-filled nights to look forward to. Yay!
Then Christmas, which brings with it many presents, games (Monopoly & Risk were favourites this year) and my quiz, of course. It's a bit of a tradition now. I got a new mp3, which makes me rather happy. Of course there's the Christmas-season football, which no-one is going to mention. West Ham aren't exactly excelling this year so far.
Er... Then a gathering at Susie's, which I had to leave early for posh family dinner, but which was fun nonetheless. Wink murder can never cease to be amusing.
New Year's Eve was also a source of much amusement. We played hide & seek, amongst other things, and let off party poppers at midnight. Only got 3 hours sleep, but fun anyway.
New Year's Day, and Susie was over to help serve drinks to the highest tier of Stock society, for my grandparents' party. We took myspace-y photos, we said "would you like a glass of sparkling white wine" (posh accents at the ready), and we giggled at the man who wore the cravat (affectionately - we love him). I went to sleep at 4pm, once it was all over, and woke up this morning, at 7.30am.
So all in all, a rather good festive season for me. Same next year?
MWAH
