Write what you know

So I had maths yesterday, not half so bad as I was expecting, definitely think I scraped a pass.

English today. First paper (poetry and comparative) = shite. Didn't read the poetry question, only realised as I wrote the conclusion what we were meant to do. And bullshitted my way through the comparative, with barely enough time to put a full stop at the end of the final sentence.

Second paper (composition) = infinitely better. I decided before going in that I would write something I'd written before. Something I knew I could do and apply to a number of different titles. And since I haven't written a decent composition since September (which I'm being told must go up here, and it might, cos I do quite like it) I tried to think of other writingy things I can do. Writingy.. can you see how I exeed in English? But yes, then it occured to me, if my last essay was about the saga of Jave I and Jessidave, why not draw again from the teenage angst that is my life? I can write a damn good angsty rant blog, and an essay is the same except handwritten and not as informal. And not really supposed to say bold words.

So that's what I did. I did a third person blog, with names shamelessly changed to those beginning with the same letter. I was called Lauren.

And if I may so myself it was damn good. It was a combinaion of stuff from previous blogs and stuff I'm just not allowed put up, just cos, you know, obvious much?

And now I'm watching Anastasia, cos it is just that amazing. I know all the songs and I haven't watched it in like 8 years. Goosebumps! Bumps on geese!

Fun/embarassing fact! When I was young I had my hair in a bob til I was like 10 cos my hair was too fine to grow out. This meant that because I had a younger sister with hair practically down to her ass, I had a longing for long hair. Another favourite activity of mine and my sister's was to "act out" movies, with Barbies or ourselves. And to enable truer characterisation, I would have my own interpretation of long hair. Yes. I would wear tights on my head. I was a traumatised as a child. Furthermore, the colour of the tights would depend on the character. Black for Jasmine and Pocahantas, brown for Belle and assorted other brunettes, white for Aurora and other blondes and red for Anastasia. And coincidentally enough, one morning when I was "playing Anastasia", one might say, and that afternoon my mum got it for me on video.
Hell yeah! I watched it like every day for 5 years then=D

Why I just said that I have no idea=P

Dancing bears, painted wings,

Things I almost remember,

And a song someone sings

Once upon a December...

You know why that song is so cool? Cos my birthday is in December=D

Listening to: Anastasia
