So, it's been two weeks since my last post. I thought I'd done nothing but when I have it all written down I've almost been productive!
I went to see High School Musical as performed by Princess Frederica. I have to see, one of the sweetest things I've ever seen! And I love Saamia's iPod Nano, again, so sweet!
I was feeding Charlotte's cat; it felt very strange to let myself into her house. Speaking of Charlotte: Happy Birthday!! 16, legal to have sexy time!
I've seen three films; two very good, one very bad. Wall:E was a brilliant film: a little bit of loneliness, space travel and a happy ending. Perfect kids film. The Dark Knight was brilliant; it looked beautiful, every actor was perfect (Ledger inculded) and it's ideas were thought-provoking as well as entertaining (even if there were quite a lot of them). Bad film? Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging: everything about it was offensive to teenagers or even human beings! Don't go and see it, don't waste your money, time or breath.
Joyce & Bruce came over for a flying visit; it was nice to see them and get an official Olympic mascot called Jing-Jing. Nice meal in Queen's Park for my mum's birthday after their trip to The Great Wall.
I bought some books from the suggested reading list and went to Summer Sundae, Ben & Jerry's. Ate lots of ice cream and had a great time: if it had been a little cooler it might have been more enjoyable but the ice cream might not have tasted so good.
GAY UPDATE: NUKE was very sweet this week: there interaction showing that the show is tryign to create a relationship not built on sex (like all the other relationships). Ollian still haven't had their own storyline yet, but the fight is tomorrow (I might even get to watch it on a real german television). Annoyed John Paul & Kieron are engaged; it;s all too cosy for Craig to waltz in and interuppt a wedding. Hope Kieron is dead before that can happen. Bring on Craig!
So, next time might not be for a while, I'm off to Berlin, then Underage and then Aberdeen. So expect that as well as Charlotte's birthday goss!

Eton, Prom, Doctor Who and Progression Day
Hello!
So, it's been a while and by my standards it was a very busy time. Went to Eton, came back, went back and then came back again! It was an amazing week; it was refreshing to be around a new group of people and it inspired people to try new things. I dived off a diving board, climbed some high stuff and didn't make a fool of myself talking in front of normal people! Result! Much more than a line on my C.V., a truly great week. And meet some really good people; all of which is a very successful week in my book!
A great week which was, rather sureally, punctuated by Prom. Every reservation I had about it being on a boat was wrong; the views of London made up for my lack of motivation to dance and everyone had a good time! I think it proved we were a good year, and one which we'll all miss when we go off to sunnier climbs.
Or in my case, right back again. And, after the amazing team building activities at Eton, 'Progression Day' was a poor show and weak attempt to convey what A-Levels will be like. Someone, explain how 'throwing a egg' to each other is to do with independent learning?! Very dull, and doesn't fill me with confidence about next year.
DOCTOR WHO!! It was great; every loose end which Russell T Davies had made, he sewed up. Every character got an ending fit for their character, the Doctor was brooding, funny and sad (both of them!) and I cannot wait until Torchwood comes back (although I hope Mickey's not involved, that ending suggested he may get a job) and for the Christmas Special. Bring on the Cybermen!! Whether you want it or not...
GAY UPDATE: Nuke was good; Cyndi Lauper did her job, the startlingly short army thing was pointless but this week could show the beginning of a more... positive storyline for them. If they don't have sex soon though, many online fans will switch off. Loving Ollian; for the only couple who have not had their own episode in a while, they are still the most credible. Bring on big fight!! HOLLYOAKS is my soap of the moment though; despite myself, these recent McPreist scenes have been very moving. Craig will have have to have had a personality transplant to be this romantic. But maybe, instead of the sap I've been accustomed to, he'll be refreshing. At least, that's the hope.
So, next time I'll review the Princess Fred's production of 'High School Musical', will give you my shortlisted version of the Wider Reading List and a short family visit. Until then...

Prom Dress, Emma's birthday & Eton Meetings
Hello!
So, an update on my very boring life! This week was always going to be... shopping orientated. And so I bought a prom dress: black, no surprise, and I'm quietly pleased with it. Got a nice bag too, so prom is not going to be the boring disaster I thought. Got my Eton stuff too; and am doing MORE shopping tomorrow with Charlotte, who us back for the 'sunny' climbs of Glasgow!
Went to the Eton meeting after nice day out with Karimah on Tuesday; where I bought the first prom dress I promptly took back! So dull and uninformative. Just a series of cliches and money-taking! Oh well, hopefully the week will be better or it'll be a waste of good sleep-in time!
Emma's birthday was Thursday and the tea party at her house was very jokes. Enjoyed myself a lot and glad she liked my scrapbook! Lots of cake, late night and nice breakfast. Good all round! Went to see The Edge of Love yesterday; and loved it. Knew I would, considering Matthew Rhys is amazing and Cillian Murphy is buff!
Doctor Who; what can I say?! It did not disappoint! Absolutely fantastic in every way; the connecting of his companions, the twist at the end, the Daleks and next week can only be better! Thought that this week was hard waiting; this coming week... oh my God! Still loving Jack, shame there was no Ianto kiss considering he thought he might never come back! Oh well...which reminds me...
GAY UPDATE: Ollian was sweet, again, but still no interaction between them, looking forward to the big fight in August. Nuke, well, it was so moving. I think it may be the best so far; the argument was everything I would have said and this week, with Cyndi Lauper should be good (I'm pretending the spoiler I know isn't happening). Jack and Ianto, mentioned above, but it's all about HOLLYOAKS this week. They got found out, and it was edge-of-the-seat stuff, but I'm almost sad Kieron is no longer dying, him simply leaving means it'll be a Kieron-Craig fight for JP, which is very deja-vu.
Anyway, good week and I'll be back with Doctor Who finale review, Eton overview and prom information. Big week, hope I can get enough sleep in!

Scout Fair, Bad Wolf and Shopping Plans
Oi oi,
So, yesterday was the highly anticipated and marathon of an afternoon I like to call 'The Scout Fair'. As a Scout, you have to run a stall, make money, set up and take down the event. All well and good. Tiring though. I was there from 11 til 9 and didn't sit down for more than 5 minutes at a time. Had to spend all today doing nothing but watching old Doctor Who's to get over it. But we raised £2,877, so all's well that end's well.
Back to Doctor Who... I thought I was going to explode when Donna said 'Bad Wolf'. Re-watched the episode with Billie Piper where she is Bad Wolf and looked up references... and I actually can't wait. Torchwood are in it, which means Jack and Ianto and Rose and Martha and it looks like Donna's gonna die and... phew! It's gonna be amazing.
So, this week is the first full week of 11 weeks of freedom. And what am I going to spend it doing? Sleeping? Seeing mates? Enjoying YouTube updates and watching old Doctor Who's like today? No, I will be constantly shopping for a prom dress, Eton stuff, Emma's birthday present and I wanna buy a book for Eton as well! So, at least if I get it all out the way now, I can relax when Eton is over.
So, as little as I care, I suppose I'll tell you about my prom dress when it is bought and will no doubt be so excited after the next part of Doctor Who I'll be unable to talk about anything else this week.
GAY UPDATE: (for those who care) Ollian was sweet but not enough between them, Nuke was amazing and for all it's fault this storyline is getting better and next week looks amazing. And finally, McPreist is looking up for a finale this week. I won't just be shopping, I'll be watching Hollyoaks too! Most importantly though? JACK & IANTO IN DOCTOR WHO FINALE. STILL CAN'T WAIT! They think they're gonna die, they must say something to each other.
So, enjoy your week and if you see anything I can buy Emma, let me know ;p
Ciao!

I just nearly...
I just nearly got hit by a 52 bus going the wrong way as I came out of Brownies (I am a leader, not 7 years old ;p). That's just rude! I'd write to Transport For London; but I fear getting a letter from Boris Johnson's government might give them the idea they've helped me and I don't want them to think I like them at all!
