I'll always belong in the sky.

This is my new favourite quotation. I've always loved watching the sky, the stars, the clouds, the rain. I think everyone does, actually. It can make you feel so insignificant and unimportant, yet so infinite. It's amazing to think that the sky just goes on for ever and ever and ever, and, no matter how much you stare, you're never going to see the end of it. The Northern Lights just blow my mind. They have this wonderfully captivating, unearthly beauty. It looks like magic. To see them in person must be so incredible. For now, I'll make do with sunsets, sunrises, shooting stars, and golden wisps of clouds, but, one day, I will see them.

Tomorrow, we're releasing the school magazine. Hello. I got to take a copy to drool over tonight which is exactly what I've been doing. I feel like a parent of a beautiful baby. I took some photos of this wonder-child.

I am one very proud sub-editor right now. I'll be sleeping with this under my pillow tonight. I also made some bracelets for my friends today. We're all super stingy and we don't want to spend a lot on each other this Christmas so we decided to make a pact - only homemade presents. I don't have any Christmas cards though, I might have to make those too!

Did I say something way too honest, made you run and hide?

Bleh bleh bleh. Everything is so boring right now! I'm having such a downer day. I have done for the last couple of days. I'll get over myself sooooon, lol. We played the quarter finals for the national cup on Tuesday but we lost... 16-0. It's so crazy! However, you're only allowed three "academy players" on a school team - like girls who play for Chelsea Youth or something. We have two academy girls on our team. Buuut, every single one of the girls on the other team is  an academy player. Our coach found their team sheet on the side of the pitch with their names, dates of birth, and teams they play for. He's taken it and is going to submit it as evidence to the ESFA or something like that. They might get disqualified, uh oh. Scandalous! I don't really mind either way because we'll just lose the semis too, haha.


It snowed yesterday which looked pretty.. Christmas has arrived! I just hope it's not snowing on the 22nd when we go up to my grandparents' place. Lalala, sorry for this incredibly boring post. I think I'm just posting for the sake of it. I'd like to get up to 100 posts by the end of the year but I don't think it will really happen. Today we had a cake sale but I forgot to get photos of my cakes, boohoo. We held it to raise money for the printing of our magazine and we got like £70 or something from this bake sale. The headteacher gave us a budget of £200 for it and printing on proper magazine paper is £260 so we can afford it, yay!

 It took us about three weeks to come up with a name for the school magazine (which I won't put on here - people may find my blog) and I don't really think it's all too great. I suggested something as a bit of a joke but everyone liked it and decided to go with it. I was like saywhat?! But, realistically, we've been struggling to come up with a name for nearly a month now so I think this is the best we're going to get.


It gets busy busy busy from here on out, school-wise.. It's half term now and I have six chapter summaries to write for a book, an essay, some history homework which I don't even know the content of, and to research and gather pieces for English controlled assessment. For the magazine I need to write a feature on personal statements and university shizzle, and also proof read and edit every single piece which is going in it. It's going to be a busy holiday.


Also, my mum, dad, brother and I are popping to Oxford for a night or two later in the week to look at the town and stuff. I think we're staying in Premier Inn. I LOVE Premier Inn holidays. Well, it's more of a minibreak but it's such good family-bonding time. That sounds so lame but I love family time. And the food at Premier Inn is so freaking good. And the beds are naaaice! So it's all go-go-go. I also have to make time for a study session with my friend who's super-eager for school, and shopping trip with mama and brobro, and a meal with some friends whom I haven't seen in the longest time. Go-go-go!

This is my dad's bag which he takes when he goes to get the bread and paper on Saturday mornings. He think it's the most hilarious thing but he's not even religious. I don't know why he finds it so funny! Well, he looks kind of camp with it, but apart from that, it's not funny!

I don't think I ever uploaded a photo of my collage wall and my bookies. If I could take one thing from my room if there was a fire, it would be my bookcase (the big one has better books on it). Which I obviously can't carry but you know... it's not about the technicalities!


I'm currently talking to a girl called Jess who I met on blogspot. She's pretty cool and we like a lot of the same things and I wuuuv her blog: www.theadorabledork.blogspot.co.uk, you should deffo take a looksy at it.


Ooh, lol, I just thought of something to post tomorrow. Totally cringey but funny so I can deal.
