Wonderful weekend

Friday was wonderful because Ian returned to Uxbridge. I got up with a spring in my step and headed to his to do some cleaning for a few hours. By the time I finished Ian arrived and we had a huge hug and a cup of tea :)
In the evening we went to mine for some dinner and caught up on the latest episodes of Fringe and Castle. I also horrified Ian by watching Embarrassing bodies, I think that has scared him for life.
In the morning I made a wonderful sausage sandwich for us both and then we headed back to his. After watching endless episodes of Dr Who we ordered pizza and lit some candles. Candle lit take-away pizza, we are so classy :) We scoffed that down while watching Where the wild things are, which neither of us understood but it was still quite a cute film. We then made some angel delight and watched The proposal.


The next day we watched more Dr Who and drank lots of tea until it was time for me to go home. We both had work we should of been doing and Ian had to depart :(
Today I cut up some cubes using a band saw and wrote half of my art essay!
I've been getting so stressy about stuff recently and when I get stressy and worried I get dry skin on my face so it looks horrible at the moment, I'm peeling :(
But seeing Ian and getting on with some work has made me feel a lot calmer so hopefully it will clear up and all will be good again :)

Dislike the little runt but these are some wise words :)

Hello world

Tuesday I spent the majority of the day at uni. Had a boring meeting about health and safety for when we go Amsterdam and sorted out the rooms. I am sharing with Cat, Katie, Catherine and a girl called Yolanda. I am a bit anxious about this as I don't really talk to them that much anymore and I'm definitely going to feel out of place, but at least I know them and aren't stuck in a room with people I haven't spoken to.
I did quite a bit of work and have finally come up with a title for my essay about sustainability :) In the evening I went to the pub to say hello to Dains new niece. She is b-e-a-utiful! The cutest thing, with the most amazing eyes, I just want to steal her!
Wednesday I worked at the pub for a bit and then came home and did some research for my essay. I have finally heard back from Bucks about my interview regarding my 3D contemporary arts course next year and I have an interview on the 16th of Feb :)
Today I have been at uni yet again and was very happy to get home and have a cup of tea. Should really be doing some more work but I really can't be bothered.
Ian is coming back tomorrow and I have never been so excited to see him. Distance is really getting to me and I just feel so alone. Still don't feel close to anyone in particular at uni and uni work not allowing me to see my other friends pretty sucks. So I'm hoping seeing him tomorrow will make things all better :)

Blooming buses

Well Friday evenings plan of a few drinks didn't go exactly to plan. I drank way too much! Ended up at the Load pretty much passing out and swigging wine out the bottle, was not pretty. When I eventually got home I threw up and then proceeded to pass out.


After throwing up again in the morning and drinking lots of water my aunt, uncle and cousin came over for a belated christmas lunch. Reminisced with Morgan and played on the xbox for a bit. Lunch was nice but I was still feeling really hungover so I didn't eat a lot :(
After watching Mulan with Morgan I got ready to go out.
Hannah got a cab and picked me up then we made our way to Uxbridge to meet the others. We had a few drinks at the Met before catching the bus for the long journey to Kingston. It was the longest journey ever but was made more enjoyable by a bottle of wine and Rob moaning about needing to pee.
Oceana was awesome! I have never been there before and I'm usually not that keen on clubbing but there were so many rooms with different types of music that it was pretty cool.

Hannah and I decided to leave earlier than the others as I was sobering up and didn't want to pay the extortionate prices for drinks, and Han had work the next day. We had no idea where we going but finally found the right bus to get on. After many long waits at bus stops and a long walk we eventually got home.
Some old family friends, Bob and Heather have come over today for a catch up and some dinner. We got some indoor fireworks, which were......thrilling :P
Have uni again tomorrow, not looking forward to the early start, so better get to bed and have some rest :)

Holiday!

I very much enjoyed my lie in on Wednesday but had to get ready quickly to go to the Load to do some cleaning. I stayed there for a bit after with Dain and Kendall and we discussed our love for Ellie Goulding and Ryan Renalds and listened to a bit of dubstep. When I got home I made a nice cup of tea and watched telly for the rest of the evening.
Yesterday I had uni and actually stayed there for the majority of the day, I was rather pleased with myself. I got a KFC with Alex for lunch and sat in the red shed with him and Dan for the rest of the day doing odd pieces of work and discussing things that annoy us. I also stupidly cut my finger on a knife :(
In the evening I ate some chinese food, watched Leon and drank rose, it was a good night.
Today has also been a day off. My grandad has come to stay with us for a few days as we didn't see him over christmas, so I did the good grandaughter thing and listened to him talk about old man stuff and I updated him on my life, then I left to meet with Louis, Han and Jess. We went to the Good Yarn and took advantage of their free wifi and searched for good hotels in Magaluf. After about 3 hours of reading crappy reviews we eventually found a nice looking and good priced hotel, right on the beach so we booked it. Can't wait til June now, it's going to be so good!
My dress that ordered in December eventually arrived today which I was very happy about as I now have something to wear for tomorrow night when I go out :)


Going back to the pub later tonight for a few drinks but until then I shall drink tea and talk to the family, how thrilling :)

Comin' home

The past two days have started very early, travelling to High Wycombe, doing a bit of work then coming home earlier than I should have. I have carried on with work when I get home, I work better at home and I have an endless supply of tea which I don't at uni.

A few pieces of my work

Have spent this evening watching telly, Snog, marry, avoid? Hotter than my daughter and Big fat gypsy weddings, which was filmed in my hometown Uxbridge, says a lot about the place really.
Been speaking to Ian quite a bit online tonight and got to see him on webcam which was nice. Miss him so much, have about another week and half until I can see him properly though, stupid uni :(
Have a day off tomorrow, can't wait to make full use of my lie-in :)

Pizza and a Cat in a hat

I did quite a bit of work yesterday. I drew up loads of ideas for my new project and made a few pieces of jewellery for my old project which turned out rather well. In the evening Jess and Hannah came over and we ordered 30 quids worth of pizza which was yummy! Hannah also brought popcorn and some booze. We watched Cat in the hat and 40 year old virgin. They headed home fairly early so I went to bed.
I have done a little more work today but I wasn't feeling as motivated so gave up and watched Primeval. This afternoon my parents and I went to an old family friends house for a surprise 50th birthday party. There was free booze and food so it was rather good. Got to catch up with my cousin which was nice as I haven't seen her in ages and had a chat with some other people I haven't seen since I was a wee sprog.
Have uni again tomorrow and I'm really not wanting to go, just want to laze in bed and never get out again :(

Catch up

I went to Ian's yesterday, not to see him but to clean his house. When returning home it started raining. Not a light sprinkle, it hammered down and I got soaked. I did bring an umbrealla but it failed at doing it's job. Once I got in, looking like a drowned rat, I got changed and spoke to some old family friends that had come over for a while. In the evening I met up with Jess and Han for a quick drink at the Met. Jess has been really ill with the swine so it was nice to see her again and we had loads to catch up on.
I love that I can tell them everything and anything and they don't really judge me, it's nice to get things off my chest.
When I got home I was really peckish and found 5 multi-packs of quavers, so quickly made my way through a few, which made me really tired so I went to bed :)

Back again

Monday I unfortunately went back to uni. It was a dull day, got a new project, didn't really talk to anyone and felt rather alone. I had a look round town, brought an old clock and went home. Once home I took apart the clock as I'm making jewellery from the gears.
Tuesday was again spent at uni. It was such a pointless day and I hardly did anything. When I arrived back in Uxbridge I met Ian and we went to mine. I got my stuff together and we made our way to Pangs. We stuffed our faces full of wonderful chinese buffet and left feeling totally stuffed. It was really nice to go out and have a nice meal with Ian.
I had Wednesday off uni so I got a nice lie in. I left Ian's and made my way to the Load where I did some cleaning for a few hours.
In the evening I went to the Met with some friends. I had planned on going home fairly early as I had uni the next day however this plan failed, majorly. Drinking games were played, a trip to the Treaty for karaoke occurred and then of course the huge drunken bust up with the boyfriend :/
Ended up getting home at 4am after wondering the streets for ages in the rain, crying and stealing Murray's kebab.
I did set my alarm but felt pretty dead so went back to sleep. I did a bit of work during the day and watched some telly, not very productive but I still feel really crappy about everything :(

Goodbyes

For lunch on Thursday I went into town, did a bit of shopping, put some money in the bank and then met up with Ian. We went to Pizza Hut for the buffet which was rather lovely and we talked to Sam for a bit while he waited on us. When I got home I made some marzipan and white chocolate sweets. My hair dresser then came over and cut my hair, nothing drastic, just shaped it a bit. I then dyed it as my roots were looking pretty bad so it just looks a more natural blonde all over :)


In the evening Ian came to mine and we scoffed some of the chocolates and caught up on Castle and Misfits :)
My mom and I packed up all of the christmas decorations yesterday. It was quite sad to see them all gone, the house looks quite bare now. I helped around the house and watched telly with my mom during the day. In the evening I went to the Met with everyone as it was the last time it would be possible for people to get together before they departed back to uni. Unfortunately Jess and Jade couldn't make it as they are ill but it was good to see everyone else. I got quite tipsy and by the time I left and got to Ian's I felt really drunk. He provided me with tea and marmite on toast so I felt a bit clearer in the head after that. We watched a few episodes of Misfits before going to bed.
Today I woke up feeling a bit ill. Not hungover, just a bit faint and sick but luckily it passed. We watched a lot of telly and drank a lot of tea. We helped his parents get things out of the loft and Ian turned back into a child as he re-discovered many of his childhood toys :)
When I got home I worked out on the Wii fit for a bit as the christmas holidays have taken it's toll and I've put on a bit of weight :P

I love you

Also just wanna say a huge thank you to my friends that have been there for me and hugged me when I've needed it most. I love you so much and I hope I can be an equally good friend to you.

?

On the up

Ok so Monday was utter shit. Had been squabbling with Ian all day over, I can't even remember, things got blown out of proportion and I literally thought that was it. Danny randomly came by in the evening looking equally sad. He informed me that he had broken up with his bf. So trying to be the good friend that I feel I am, I invited him in and offered him tea, cookies and a good chat. I think it helped him but unfortunately discussing brake ups for about 2 hours did not help my situation at all and when he left I burst into a never ending crying fit.
I couldn't stay in the house and Ian refused on seeing me so I called Jess, who wonderfully invited me to hers for the night. She offered me tea, biscuits and nicotine and nodded and said all the right things at all the right times.
Feeling a little better in the morning, I got up and watched Jerry Springer. In the afternoon we made our way back to mine where Hannah soon joined us. We then had a huge girly chat and drank copious amounts of tea. Adam later accompanied us as we hadn't seen him in ages and he joined us in our chats. After many tears, hugs and some home truths I decided I had had enough of just texting Ian and literally had to talk to him.
After a good few hours and an awkward dinner we finally sorted things out. I guess only time will tell if things are really on the up but I really hope they are, just don't know if I can be that unsuspecting and trustful.


Today, which I completely forgot was Wednesday, started by rushing out of bed so that I was ready to get to work on time. I succeeded. Spent a few hours there cleaning and watching telly :)
In the evening Danny came over again, this time on a lighter note. We had dinner and played on the Wii, which he thrashed me at. We watched some films and ate our body weight in pistachio nuts.

New Years

Friday night was celebrated down the Load of Hay with a big group of friends, it was a good turn out considering it was only at the Load. I didn't drink as much as hoped, I was pleasantly drunk but considering there was an open bar I don't think I used it to it's full advantage. Nevertheless a great night was had by all.


I awoke in the morning feeling completely fine, however not the same can be said for Ian, who was chundering in the toilet. I let him sleep in till lunch while I watched telly. When he finally got up we had some lunch and continued watching films and lazing on the sofa. In the evening Lawson and Lee came over. Ian and I ordered pizza and the guys played Halo for the whole night. At about 2 I decided to go to bed as I was knackered but they continued playing.
Today Ian and I awoke at half 1 in the afternoon!! We watched the new episode of Fringe and Buried, which was incredible! When I got home I had some dinner and have spent the rest of the evening on my laptop :)
