Wowa woooah!

First week back at college and it’s already stressing me out. *sigh* Well at least it’s over now.

Gunna talk about happier things!

I’ve got my driving theory test on Wednesday 11th. I just did a mock test tonight and on the theory section I was 1 mark from a pass 😦 On hazard perception I got a good pass mark for it. Overall though if that was the real thing, I would have failed… but it wasn’t! So I’m doing lots of revising over the next couple of days and doing 4 more mock tests and hopefully I’ll be passing them all from now on :)!

Please keep your fingers crossed for me, I really can’t afford to fail lol.

Driving in general seems to be going really good for me right now. I love it. Lots. However, there’s still a lot for me to learn!

More happy stuff… got my money from college through today, happy days I’m not skint anymore! This makes me very happy. Just back to plodding along but going to try to save this time. It’s my birthday in a month and a half 😀 This is also happy stuff!

College is stressful at the moment. Tutors keep lying to us about what exams are mandatory and about different pass rates. I’m doing fine in mine so I’m not worrying but it’s frustrating that they’re supposed to be treating us like adults yet they’re lying to us about simple, unnecessary things :/

My life feels a bit hectic at the moment. I’m between my house and my boyfriend’s house so I’m not settled anywhere. I’ve now got THREE drawers at his house, yep, THREE. And he’s getting a new double bed and I’m bringing one of my many cushions to place on it. I’ve decided to start giving his mum some money too because I’m there so much and she does a lot for me. So pretty much paying board too but I’m happy to. I can afford it because I’m not giving her tons but I’m putting a little towards the money she spends on food and electricity and water. I’d pay more if I could afford it but right now I can’t.

Lots going on for me right now and writing on here feels nice, like an outlet. Sort of like a diary at the moment. It’s nice.

 

Exams ahoy

I got a merit for my pedicure assessment today. Two marks away from a distinction. I’m really happy with that. Finally a grade I’m happy with 😀

Got one more assessment for pedicure tomorrow but its not a proper one. Just a practise one but we were supposed to do 3 practises before the final assessment except I did my final assessment before my third practise. So after tomorrow I’m done with all my practical assessments for 2011. Then ive got 6 theory assessments before the end of next week so now I’ve just gotta kick their arses! 3 of which are tomorrow afternoon. Waaaaaah.

2011

I fancy doing a post on the best a worst bits of my year. I’ll do it month-by-month to try to jog my memory.

January

High: Don’t remember any highs

Low: A-level exams that went rubbish and generally just low.

February

High: Getting back together with Adam, Valentine’s Day, my two birthday nights out. New tattoo and piercing.

Low: Breaking up with Adam for a day (but we didn’t think it’d just be for a day)

March

High: Went to see Jezza Kyle with college,

Low: Being pretty ill for two weeks. Finding out exam results.

April

High: When my dad booked the flights!

Low: My dad still hadn’t booked my flights to Australia so I was really stressed out.

May

High: Doing my first 10km run in Manchester in 1 hour and 8 mins. Felt amazing.

Low: Finding out I’d missed S Club performing where I live but I missed them!

June

High: Finishing my last exam at a college I hate. Going to Australia to see my mum! Discovering Big Bang Theory. The best TV show I know 😀

Low: Having exams at a college I hate.

July

High: Going to Hard Rock Cafe for my brother’s birthday and getting to spend a few hours with my brother just me and him.

Low: Saying bye to my mum again for I don’t know how long. Having non-stop arguements with my dad when I was supposed to be having a good holiday.

August

High: Getting back to my boyfriend. Had two days in York with him. Getting my A-level results.

Low: Leaving the country that my mum and brother live in. Missing one flight from Singapore to Manchester and having another gabillion arguments with my dad in the airport.

September

High: Starting a new college course at a new college and starting two blogs. Two year anniversary.

Low: More arguments with my dad.

October

High: My dad went away for a week. Hull fair. Had 3 course lunch with Adam for 8p at Chiquitos.

Low: Took out my facial piercings because I was too bothered about what other people thought.

November

High: Christmas shopping. Discovered my new favourite film ‘Beastly’. Started driving!

Low: Spent a few days at my grandparents house, was looking forward to it but it didn’t work out how I thought and I felt uncomfortable the whole time and couldn’t wait to get home.

December

High: At a great point of my relationship at the moment. Great zombie night out.

Low: Low on money this month.

 

So that’s my year in highs and lows. I’m really looking forward to Christmas with Adam and shopping in the sales haha. I will also be setting up my website for my reviewing over Christmas to hopefully be announced in the New Year.

Not sure what I think to 2011. It’s definately been the most up and down year of my life. A lot has changed. More so than ever. I just hope 2012 is a little more kind to me. Looking forward to turning 20 too.

Hmmm….

So in my two assessments I got merit. Which I should be happy with because its better than a pass. Except im not happy with because I wanted a distinction.

It’s slightly reassuring that for facial I was two marks away from a distinction.
But with manicure I only just got a merit. I know I did better than what she graded me. I definately know it.
I might sound sour but for the first time in so long I’ve tried so hard and worked my bum off and got my hopes up. And it didnt go how it should have gone.

Heard a rumour yesterday that the tutors didnt want to give out any distinctions because its too early.
But if we’re good enough then it should be available!

So I had a bit of a rubbish time at college this week. Next week we have pedicure assessment so I’ll practise pedicures this week. Im going to try to persuade my dad to buy me the pedicure kit so I have the stuff to practise with. Hopefully he will otherwise I probably wont even get a merit this time :/

Bummer. Well at least its december. Eeeek!

Weeeeeeeeeee

Finally got ‘competant’ in manicure today! Usually get ‘not yet competant’ but because I know every step now and I dont need a prompt sheet for the massage and I finished with 38 seconds left, I got competant! This makes me insanely happy!

Mock assessments over. Real life actual assessments next week for facial and manicure. Want a distinction. Want to kick its arse! Need to finish learning facial massage without prompt sheet for next week. Eeek!

Busy bee

Wow it’s been a busy week. I’ve not really stopped. Been busy with college and home life.

Today at college was my best day yet. Everyone was in a really chilled, happy mood then in the afternoon we got a bit giggly which finished my day nicely.

I had to go and buy some supplies for practising my beauty treatments and I realised halfway to the shops how heavy my bags were. Still a few minutes away from the shop and then 5 minutes to the bus station then another 5 once I got off the bus. Those 5 minutes turned into 10 minute strolls just because everything was so heavy. AND I forgot a cream I needed. I got everything else though. But I need to work on reducing the amount I stash in my bags.

Driving went well this week! Although I did stall for the first time ever :(! But there was no one around to see it happen which was a relief. I went on roundabouts and some more junctions and went up to 30MPH again. It feels like I’m speeeeeeding but I’ll get used to it.

I feel absolutely exhausted tonight, I’m actually so glad it’s the weekend. I’ve got a lot of work to do though 😦 But that’s ok. I’m sorting out my blogs now and then I’ll watch Hollyoaks while I eat something. Then probably go onto E4 and watch monday’s episode too 😉 Then I’ll do some college work. Then tomorrow will be blogging and mooooore college work. Then I think I’ll try to see my bestie. Then sunday will be more blogging and more college work during the day oh also helping out at my boyfriend’s brother’s house. Then in the evening I’ll be doing nails and/or facials for anyone at my boyfriend’s house that will allow me to. And the same for monday. As well as driving! Busy busy busy.

Tuesday at college doing maths and english, wednesday meeting some girls from college to buy supplies FOR college, thursday and friday back at college WOAH and it’s been another week already. JEEEEEZ.

*flops out on bed* I don’t want to move for a while.

Can’t move.

I need to set off in about half an hour to go to college but I just can’t be bothered to move.

How good am I? I’m going in on my day off to do 2 hours of work. I don’t have homework nor do I need to catch up on anything. I’m just going in for 2 hours to get AHEAD. Go me! *quiet woops*

I don’t have my ipod charged so I won’t be listening to tunage so hopefully there won’t be many annoying noisy people in the library so I can get into an epic study groove!

ALSO I need ideas for an undead themed party I’m going to in a month and a half. I have NO money to buy anything extra with so everything needs to be done with the makeup I own (i have a lot so no worries about that). I have a devil outfit but it’s not really undead. Turns out people are going just randomly as stuff but I want to be a little in theme at least 😦

I wish I could afford a ladybird outfit. I could be an undead ladybird. Seriously I want that. 😦

Do devils have issues with blood? I want lots of fakeblood 😦 I keep getting devil and vampire mixed up. This will get annoying.

So yeah, any ideas would be great! Thaaaanks.

Changes

I have transferred to the general beauty course at college because a place became available. So I’ll be doing the course I originally applied for! It’s all working out. I start next week. I’m really looking forward to this new part of my life. I’m gunna do well with it 🙂
Bear with me while I get started. I’ll be redoing my nails in a day or two so they look good for my first day. Actually I’ll be doing them monday. I’ll be doing my boyfriends mums nails again too. I’ll get pictures of course!

Progress

I got onto a nail course at college. 😀 I start in 2 weeks. Finally going to be doing something I enjoy. Hopefully i’ll do well with it. I’ll keep posting pics of nail stuff that i do for other people, with permission obviously. I’m looking forward to it so much!
