Let's fly pigeon!

I'm going to South Africa!

But I'm not going this Summer. I'm going next Christmas.

Huzzahfuckingzaaaah!!!!!!

Oh dear.

I am a very very very poor lady.

*sniff sniff*

I'm so close to the 2 stone mark I can smell it I tell thee! Which is impressive seeing as though I've definitely gained this week due to nothing but pizza and greggs and german market-ey goodness. Mmmm.

So to celebrate I'm going to eat Doritos and KFC! Yay!

Let's go and get mashed and not feel feelings anymore please.

My loan has gone :(

Well, it has gone until January when I get my next installment. I blame all the crazy books that I had to buy today. The books and these beauties:



Yum yum. They make me 6 foot...but that's ok :)

Jesus I'm hungover. Drinking wine last night through a straw? Yes that was me. Oh dear.

Oh, and also. LIVERPOOL THIS SATURDAY. good.

ARGH.

I just realised that during the short walk from my flat to the library I have ripped the heel of my favourite boots :(

Today is going to suck. Everything sucks. Kind of.

Hm.

You'd think that I'd have something to write about concerning my new life at uni wouldn't you? But I don't really. How about I just start talking [writing] and then maybe something interesting will pop up? Yes, that would be nice.

So, I've got a mock exam in a bit. Hence why I'm in the library avoiding revising. I could revise easier if I knew what the sodding exam was about. It doesn't help that I am nursing a bit of a hangover. Why were you silly enough to get drunk the night before an exam Lauren you ask? Well I didn't really mean to, honest. In the end I decided I didn't want to drink to get drunk, I'd just have one or two to um, wet my whistle. Well. Turns out double vodka and redbulls are only £1.25 in Loaf. And they will get you drunk my friend. Yesiree. It didn't help that some girl dressed as a cat kept giving me free vodka from the bottle (THAT WAS NOT AN HALLUCINATION I SWEAR). So suddenly I'm walking down the stairs (in my amazing new shoes that make me 6 foot) and wheee I fall. Well it was more of a weird somersault really as I kept hold of tha rail. Quite impresive actually. And this is when I realise I have been lured into drunkeness. Thankfully not so drunk that when two guys dance around me lifting their shirts up and stroking their bodies (they were actually pretty handsome) I um, take the bait? Drunk enough to dance like a loon when prodigy/house of pain/basement jaxx comes on.

I had a weird dream last night that Estee had thrown a party in my bedroom without telling me and had mixed my bottle of peach schnapps (which blatently doesn't exist anymore) with blackcurrant because she doesn't like the taste of peach.

I'm going to go and get Shelly a present later, she's 17 on Friday, how STRANGE is that? I'm not sure what to get her so I'll probably just end up buying myself some shoes. Some more shoes. Some nice dark green t-bar heels from topshop. Oh god I'm practically already at the till. Does anybody know where all the charity shops are in Manchester? I need to find somewhere nice and cheap to buy things from. I feel so materialistic saying that but seriously. I have no TV, no computer, no nothing here. I think buying stuff is what keeps me entertained. And besides. We all know that these loans are for dwindling away on booze and general crap. And what with me still having a job and having Daddy round the corner willing to buy me food (he keeps trying to sneak things like chocolate into my shopping trolley, it's really sweet. Oh I think be taking me to Blackpool this weekend :) awesome) I don't think I should worry about money too much yet. I really need to get my lovely student overdraft sorted out though. I also really need to go to Greg's and get a steak slice. I shouldn't really. I'm feeling like a right fatty (although the doctor weighed me the other day and I have lost a little weight, I even had my clothes and BOOTS on while I was being weighed so that's good.) We went to this model thing last night (me and my super slim flatmates) and they were convincing me that I'd get scouted because I'm tall and such. Either they have permanent beer goggle eye or they were taking the piss. But yes. My small flatmates make me feel hideous so I need to avoid the steakslice. ohiwantitsobad.

So yeah, shelly's birthday. It was Wayne's 40th birthday the other day. I don't know why I just mentioned that because I have no further information to divulge concerning it.

I went to see Peaches last week. It was bloody awesome. Costume changes, glitter, inflatable giant penis...fit. I was quite scared by the fact there were some serious oldies in the crowd. Surely they don't bump and grind to the sex grooves of Peaches? Speaking of bump and grind, (you won't seee the connection but the flyer had this bump and grind slogan...) can you believe that I paid a fiver to get into an R+B the other day??? I actually had a good night though, they played can't touch this, it was all good. I really like these student nights in Manchester, although I hate the way we always end up in the same places really. I'd like to check out Gilly's this week. Does anyone know when the student night is? Surely they have one?

Well, I really could talk some more (belive it or not) but I don't really have anything of interest to share (not that any of that was interesting) and the call of the steak slice is too strong so I must go and retrieve one. Then I'll go and sit in the park and try to revise for half an hour or so. Deal? Good.

Is what a few of my roomates think of me.

I thought it was funny when I threatened to "get them" if they ever touched my stuff again. Apparently not, no.

GOODBYE WIDNES!

Congratulations! You're engaged! ER. WHAT?!

RARAR! Sodding, secret answer at sodding student support direct and sodding not being able to acess my details over the sodding phone to get my sodding bursary sorted the sod out. Sodding keyboard with the enter, backspace, mute and space key among others not sodding working. Sodding having to copy and paste every single sodding space and not being able to make paragraphs with ease! MNEAH! In other news I'm very excited/scared for uni and am addicted to tetris.

I'M IN! IN!IN!IN!IN!IN!!!!!!! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!(ok i didn't get the grades but shh they want me anyway).

I went to aqua aerobics with my mum so she wouldn't be on her own.
It was quite embarassing.
Especially when I. I "ESCAPED".

To buy: Full swimming costume.

I've just finished a six hour+ shift at ASDA.

*DIES*

See, part of me feels rather achieved because of all the work I'm doing but then I realise I'm not getting that much money for it all. Considering the expenses I have... NO MORE CLOTHES LAUREN. I have enough for the first time ever I think and it's beeeoooteefull.
Ok I'm babbling now so there's no reason to stop, let me get some money things straight...

Deacon blue tickets (mums birthday)
Boots
Metallic shoes
Money to fund a trip to London where I can get my S.A passport (but I think that may have to wait until next year)
Driving lesson things
Going out on the razz money
£100 that I want saved before university

Hm. Speaking of uni can somebody help me with something that I just don't get? Right, you get a loan and that, that I know. But, to cover what exactly? Will there be one for tuition fees (£3000 a year) accommodation fees (near enough £3000) and living costs also? I'm so confused! I have to pay a £100 deposit for my accommodation which will be before my loan would ever come in, how do I pay for that? And what if I don't get in? Do I get my £100 back?!?!?!?

Good god. How did any of you do this?

On another note I bought mermaidish plates for uni, they make me happy. I'm going to the doctors on friday about all the nosebleeds. This makes me worry.

Hm, so I haven't used this in a while. I've added this thriftstore commuinity you see which fills up my friends list and makes it impossible to do anything really. And um nothing too interesting has happened. Oh, my boss has a new beard. I like it. That's how interesting everything is.

Oh yeah. I went on holiday, I turned 18, I went out yesterday, I got sunburnt, I finished college, I got my accommodation acceptance letter which is rather confusing indeed, I went to see over the hedge it was cute, I had a party, I buy too many clothes, Oh no I need present money, I need someone to go to creamfields with me, I'm addicted to my new xbox (thank you gra :) ) and I need a South African passport.

Ok that's all I think I would have updated with in the past month, just in case you were interested.

Oh and( buy these for me please. )

This is fine this is fine, this exam is fine!

I would like this for my birthday:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Chinese-Tibetan-Amber-with-Insect-big-BEE-Necklace_W0QQitemZ8946291615QQcategoryZ99005QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
For which I'll need to find a gold chain...

I would also like to start using the thrift journal that corinne's gotten me onto, oh my...

I would also like to lose 8 pounds. Well, ten pounds because I gained. (I had a south african bbq, was given the old south african dried biltong as a present, you know the story)

I would also like the sun to shine on the 23rd 24th and 25th of June please.

I would also like a certain "crew" get together very shortly.

Love,
Lauren.

Oh my, it's so summery!

Well!
It turns out I forgot to post on here saying:

YES! ONE STONE! HUZZAFUCKINGZAAH!

Glad that's sorted.

I feel like I'm flowing in and out of conciousness lately. Or not conciousness, but two different people? Does that make sense? No I suppose it doesn't, and I suppose it doesn't matter. It's not like I'm a puppet, but it's the same principle. I'm going through the motions, always thinking I'll sort that tomorrow, I'll do that tomorrow and I'll think about that tomorrow. Just go to sleep now. But of course then I wake up early and have plenty of time to muse over myself. But I block it. I get washed dressed makeup-ed and go to college as expected and I try to keep people entertained, keep my self entertained, try to listen in a lesson, make pointless small talk and then go home. And then I think. So I district myself with something else, this computer the second most popular choice of distraction. And then I can't stand to be awake thinking anymore so I go to bed. And I wake up, and I follow my instuction manual over and over and over and over.
And it's driving me insane. I just don't know what to DO.
