My eyes sting!

Wow...for the second time this week I have seen the sun set...and rise before bed!!! HaHa

It is all due to the fact that Katie Cook decided to pay me a visit and camp out for 4 hours!!!!! She only came to borrow a cup of sugar!!!!

We managed to catch Katie to get her views on the subject:

Katie "Not my fault - all emma"...She ensures that she will be up for breakfast at 8am...

We'll keep you posted!

Night...well morning...but that's wierd...so...NIGHT!!

What are you?!

You Are a Sensitive Kisser
For you, kissing is a way to connect
And you need lot of care, attention, and privacy
It may take you a while to kiss someone...
But when you do, it's total fireworks

Celebrated at Planet last night and had a good time! (That's on record...and I was with the best guys ever so what were you expecting!!??)

Anyhoo..I've got to go and do....NOTHING!!!!

Things are not always what they seem...

Two travelling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guestroom. Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it. When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem."

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest. When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen? The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die.

"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied. "When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem."


Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You might not know it until some time later...

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow a mystery.
Today is a gift.
That's why it's called the present!

I think this life is special...live and savour every moment...

The wonders of msn...

It's quite strange really...we spend our lives with people, talking, doing, sharing. It isn't possible to discuss all happens from a persons life, we can only get a feel of what has occurred or does occur and what effects such events have had. Yet, we only ever really get one side of the story and we never know whether or not we are being told the whole truth, the whole story. Do we ever really know anyone??!!

On a slightly different note i would like to say a few words about msn. I think a lot of people probably have a lot to thank msn for...it may be annoying and tempremental...but without it I think I would know and have told very little! Whether or not that is a good thing or not I'm not quite sure. It's definately not a firm basis of a friendship, but it does allow one to get to know the true personality of our friends without the possible embarassment or shame of discussing sensitive subjects with each other.

Thank you Mr Gates...it has done some good!

They're after me!!


Not very many of you may know...I live with a lake...well I don't actually live with a lake...that would be stoopid, I'd just get wet all the time! There is a lake at my area of residence! Anyhoo...the lake is the home for...(cue jaws music!)...DUCKS!! (They actually live with the lake...and get wet!)

Anyway...even less of you may know that I am in fact scared of said ducks...well ducks in general really. The ducks seem to have cottoned on to this and have subsequently spent a lot of time around my window...:-S

They are here now! HELP!!!

Thailand!

Can you believe the politics in some coutries. Thailands Government deprives the poor living in the rural areas just because they don't live in the city! I guess what they know can't hurt them is a big theory there!!

Ah well...enough about Human Geography! Will all be over this time tomorrow! Yey!! Then only two more to go...man I HATE exams!

Speak soon my lovelies...

One down...four to go!

Well...it's done...my destiny has been determined...for Physical GEography anyway! It wasn't too bad...I survived! Nearly didn't survive the journey back though! Someone decided to be adventurous and take us back via the scenic route...

...after walking around Mt Pinatubo we made it to the botanical gardens...for those of you who don't know Durham...It wasn't a short cut!

Oh...By the way...BIG NEWS!!! Today I have discovered...Rain makes you wet!

Love yas

The time has come...

Arggghhhhh...the day has come! My first exam is today! It's so strange...I have never felt so unprepared for an exam! I just have no idea what I'm suppose to know or what I need to do! Well now is not the time to worry...it is the time to sleep. I'm sure that everything will be fine...very glad that I only need 40% this time round. I DO NOT like unchartered territory!

Exam Time

Havn't updated for a while so I thought I'd say hey!!

Well exams have officially started...not necessarily for me but still...we have entered teh period. It has been rather amusing to see the effects that exams have on people, whether due to the stress of the exams themselves of the stress of people due to their stress of their exams...did that make sense??!!

Anyhoo...Cheer up everyone...They're not so bad and not long til they'll all be over. Just remember to eat and sleep well!

Love ya's!

Stella Artois

I have found the reason why Stell is 'Reasuringly Expensive'...it's to stop students from getting so pissed! That stuff is leathal! Add a few pints, some sun, and a fun friend and you're laughing...literally...at everything! Don't do it!

Onto more serious news...exams are luming and I'm not as prepared as I'd hoped...but they're going to be ok! Only 40% afterall!

Arggghhh...Exams!

One realises that exams are fast approaching when checking the location of said exams...Everything seems pretty straight forward, except annoying IT & Skills for Geographers...(maybe if it was aimed at KS1 geographers- not exactly new skills now :-S)...It would appear that my IT & Skills exam is in 3 locations...and as My name is W I'm guessing I will be the furthest away!! How exactly am I suppose to find out anyway? :-S (I think I've probably been told but have either forgotten already, or just not listened!).

Better news though! I have found the timer button on my camera and am not afraid to use it!! It's so cool! You can take a picture of your whole group without the risk of your camera being stolen/broken by whomever you decide to risk ask take a picture of your whole group!

Right...work, work, wok!! HaHa...I love chinese food!

10 days to go!!
