10 Months Later…
You’ve missed one hell of a year, and it’s only the beginning… Watch this space!

Tick Tock.
Wow, can’t believe there’s only two weeks of school left. It’s so scary. I don’t really feel old enough to be done with school, you know. I’m going to miss the sixth year common room banter but I suppose there’s still Go Ape and prom… Well maybe prom, but honestly I don’t think it’ll happen. No one’s said anything about it in ages and it’s not like there’s much time left to organise it now, but I hope I’m wrong.
On another note, I think I need a new job for the summer. Something with better pay and more hours like the services, but it’s basically impossible to get there by bus and it’s not like I have anyone who can drive me there at like 7 am. Oh well, there are other places I suppose but I better get looking soon before they’re all gone.
Almost out of time.
Leaving.
Okay, so I’m officially going to Dundee Uni and I honestly can’t wait. I mean I love my friends, I do but I cannot wait to get out of this town. After staying at my sisters flat last week I realised how much better everythings going to be when I get away: not having to see certain people everyday and not having to act like the person you used to be because thats how people see you. Everythings so much easier when you can just relax and be yourself. I can’t wait!
But as I said I do love my friends, and I will miss all of them old and new.

Getting into gear.
I think I’m going to go insane if I don’t hear back from Edinburgh Uni soon. I mean I’ve already got unconditionals from Dundee, Aberdeen, St. Andrews and Glasgow but Edinburgh’s the one I want, so why can’t they just hurry up and tell me before I have a mental breakdown!
Although I really should stop worrying about uni and concentrate on school. Apparently my total lack of work and substandard prelim results are “unacceptable at Advanced Higher level”, so I’ve been given a week to prove I’m worth being presented for the exam. Maybe coasting it for 4 years is enough and now’s the time to get my arse in gear, preferably before I get kicked out of school.
So lets get to work.

Chapter Two.
Okay, so alot has changed in the last few months. I figured I’d start fresh; new place… new blog… new person… Then I realised something, you can never really start fresh because ignoring the past is a lie. I mean I could delete this blog and all the posts that come with it, but that doesn’t erase it from my life. Things happen and they can’t be undone, there is no ‘delete’ button in life.
After all thats what makes you, you. Without the past we’d all be vapid wandering idiots. So I’m keeping it. All those things which piss you off, the things you want to pretend never happened, the people who have caused more trouble than good… They’re important, they’re what got me here.
So no, this is not a new beginning. This is just another chapter in a book.

Dress up and drinking and banter… Oh my!
Well I’ve not been up to much out of the ordinary as of late. Schools been really good, especially now that I’ve gotten all my NABs out of the way. I even passed maths! The common room is so much better now that all of the benches have been fixed and its been painted so it looks a lot bigger, plus we have a white board. Yay!
Well Halloween was awesome last week, I got dressed up and went to Chelsea’s for a bit then after a while we went to Emma’s. We spent the night listening to boyzone and drinking while being surrounded by candles and a lit pumpkin, yeah probably not the safest of ideas. It was really funny though since boyzone kind of ruined the Halloween-y theme of the night. Later on we decided to go to Mario’s for munch and took a walk about town where we met up with Steve. All in all it was a good night, bar the rain on the way home.
As for this weekend Friday night was spent at Emma’s in the usual style of random drinking, dancing and banter. Then on Saturday I donned my wellies and trekked to Bitts Park with some of the girls, after which I jumped into bed and in the usual fashion watched QI with a hot cup of tea. Yes. In my world THAT is magical!
So in the words of Bosko, “that’s all folks”.

Surprising? It is to me.
I’m sitting on the sofa contemplating the past few weeks and I’ve come to a realisation. I miss it. Which is annoying because I didn’t plan to, thats why I kept pulling away. I really didn’t want to miss it and I hate that I do. So can we just go back to how things were ?
Thats all. Just wanted you to know. xxxx
We can’t all solve crosswords.
So things havent changed much since the last blog, except from the fact that everything is now completely different. What I mean is if you ask anyone I know they’d say it was a quiet month of the usual school, relationships and gossip, but lets just say for me it hasn’t seemed so ‘quiet’. You can see the changes by the clear increase in alcohol consumption and decrease in my text usage.
Don’t panic. I’m not depressed or anything. Just confused. Life is a confusing thing, it’s supposed to be or we’d all get too comfortable and we’re not allowed to be too comfortable, we have to be kept on our toes and take risks. Ergo life has to be confusing. But why does the confusion have to be such an inconvenience to my life. It could have been a crossword but it turned out to be a freaking encryption algorithm, impossible to solve yet you cant stop trying.

This could take a while.

Urgh I am bloody knackered!
I mean it’s not like Ive done anything especially exhausting today but I’ve just been so tired lately.
Oh we’ve got the common room which is awesome! Its not comfy or anything but it’s good banter we’ve been playing a lot of cards and today someone brought in Twister which I spent most of my day playing. It was really funny and a bit painful on the hard floor. Maybe that’s why I’m so tired. I had my first Biology NAB today and it wasn’t as bad as I expected, I was panicking before I done it but that’s probably because I didn’t revise [My bad!] but I passed so it’s all good.

Just before Dayle with a Y....
Thats from the train on the way to the cinema last week. Anyhow, I’ve not really been up to much this week, just had a couple of movie nights. I really hate having nothing to do! I’ll be going round to Ems tomorrow night though so I may be able to salvage my sanity then.
Well I must be off.
Nicole.
I know, it’s been a while.
Hey. I know I’ve not written in ages but I’ve been a busy little bee with school and working.
So last night I went to the cinema to see The Ugly Truth [again] with a couple of the girls. It was really fun and we were kept amused by a group of drunken guys on the train, one of which was called Dayle. He was like “add me on facebook girls, my names Dayle, with a Y… D A Y L E… Dayle!” Seriously. It was hysterical.

Gerry... Yumm!
Ohhh I just remembered, we’re getting the common room tomorrow. Yeah boyy! I’m sooo excited about it, me and Amz have a bunch of ideas for it, we’re bringing a kettle and mini fridge in for it so that we can have hot drinks. Also, I’m thinking big floor pillows would be good since we only have benches, but we’ll sort it out.
So thats about it… and if your in my year bring in a cup if you fancy a drink. Ha ha.
