Im still going to watch everyone so that in a while i may come back and see what everyone has been up to because I'd hate to let that go. But I have had so little time that i couldnt even check up on my account- never mind write or post.

So many thanks to all my watchers and good luck with all your art and literature- all the best for your prospective careers....

4) My favourite food is pasta. Without question.

basically, before anyone draws seom conspicuous Harry Potter comparisons, at my boarding school we have companies (like Houses) and last night was the event where we are given a song and we yell it out with a live band as loud as humanly possible.
Good fun.
This year it was the Beatles and we hammered that one out, after our awesoem vocal ensembles. My friends and I sang "I know him so well" from Chess- complete with the cheesy boyband moves........
spirit fingers, going down onto our knees, running our hands through our hair etc....if it's cheesy you name it- we did it
and we won!!!!
sang in her ensemble "wishing you were somehow here again" which we sang las spring, and they sounded beautiful- but they didnt have cheesy lee mead moves
and sang in hers and they sounded beautiful too.
me happy.

plus- its one of the few days of the year when the entire school where's nothing coordinated. Our company colour was blue- so we had peolple in leotars, leggings and belt. that was it. Blue gloves filled with water and baskets on people's heads, miniskirs, games socks and trainers- i'll put the photos up. It was AWESOME FUN!

and hello again- i promise I'll upload- im working on some stuff......

and read this- its funny!...trust me

We went caving which was a kind of combination of abseiling down small holes with a "makeshift" harness in the words of our ex-army instructor...that worried me. But it also included wriggling through holes and over flat boulders with the space of a large paperback between the boulder and the ceiling. As a girl...that hurt...

Plus weaseling- climbing through small holes in a vareity of interesting positions and more abseiling over a threateningly tall quarry and gorge scrambling.

It was strange. But the best was the last day when we went back to the river and tried to do the river swing over two at a time. I tried with Toby and we got halfway down- and he left go of the clutch. We plunged into the river, i mjumped to the side but he yanked me back in, so i puched his head under the disgustingly cold british water. Yeah. Well. Then we attached the rope to the top of the bridge and swung across like TARZAN! .....we're cool. XD

The next week i went to a german school to improve my german- uninteresting- so i'll leave it out.

Just to let you know- back in school, play is starting, gcses have to be taken seriously- and the PRESSURES ON!

It was insanely fun.

Next year I'll do another one, in some other part of the world and learn somehting new and meet more people, but I'll never forget the people who made that trip and my summer so amazing.
In silent tribute.
Jesse, Perri, Ingrid, Marina, Jon, Oliver, Julia, Mark, Melissa, Megan, Annabelle, and everyone.

I loved learning about everyhting and having my birthday there was fantastic- in case you didnt know I'm now 15. Congratulations to me. It's hard to survivve this long with a mentality like mine...

We saw hammerhead sharks swimming right by, Melissa poke a nurse shark, a glimpse of a reef shark, rays everywhere, I poked a giant sea slug and we found a turtle that is one of the last two hundred in the world. Exciting...

So if anyone ever goes on one of these- let me know!

Most exciting things that happened- a tarantula was lying on the path and Jenny almost stepped on it. As a joke i asked if i could pick it up and cuddle it and our guide said yes. Our teacher then said no. Quickly. But the guide had the tarantula crawl up his arm, down his short, up the back of his neck and through his hair. So i had a go. Yum.....

Scorpion crawled trough teh walls of our room- we were staying in a rickety little shck thing- and everyone started screaming. It was funny. Then our teacher ran in and tried to shoo it out with a matcbox. ......I felt so English. Alos felt english when we were sat on the porch of the other camp, the sun was setting and my friend and i were listen to mozart on her ipod. It felt very colonial......

We'd go out walking every day and the guide would point stuff out to us, explain the uses of plants or the survival technicques when encountering ravaging jaguars.......Once Jenny almost stepped on a snake (she liked stepping on things once she killed a snail. We cried.) and the guide picked up a stick and trapped it. Whilst the deadly venomous snake was trying to wriggle its way towards me i asked him why and the guy says "so you can take a photo." Um. I didnt know a photo was a worthy reason ot die for and so after we'd all been very arty the guide picks it up and slings it way into the jungle. The RSCPA will be after me....

They said to us that women have specila power over snakes and that if a female is looking at it a snake is paralysed and shoudl a pregnant woman look at it it'll just die....well. looks can kill.......(AWFUL PUN! i KNOW...xd)

We learnt how to make tortillas (i wrote bite me on mine) heheh) and cinnamon buns and donuts and visited the Maysn site at caracol. It was cool but i wished we'd spent longer. I loved the blue lagoon- it was blue. mmmmmmm. Sadly we didnt see a jaguar buit you know what? pictures speak better than words so I'm just gonna have to organise myself about it. And tell me if anyone has facebook- I want to talk to you more often!

Part one over.

In other news, I'm Kate in the school play- I have the main part in Shakespeares "Taming of the Shrew". I'm so excited I could cry. And I got A*s in French and Maths GCSEs and A in German. School might not be so bad this year...

Basically i dont know whether anyone cares aout what I've been up to but I though instead of cramming 2 months into one journal I'd do separate ones; one for Belize, Bahamas, France and Derbyshire, Germany, and Italy respectively. By the end im sure you'll all be very bored- but i have to tell someone!!!!

Today I'm sat on a sunny terrace in Sicily looking at a famous old volcano, reading and eating. I probably wont be very active in two days so I'll try adn do as much housekeeping, ahem, before I go. Sorry I've been so overdue on messages and comments- hope you're all having as much fun as me!

Gotta fly!

Well, nothing else to say here. Empress should be checkin' like.. in a few weeks or somethin', just thought I'd let you know where she was.

But enough, I will put them behind me as I have to work with these people for the next year. So live and learn and tough cookies.

But I have discovered Tryo, a french band [link] which is strange but very cool and I have been listening to it non stop for a week. I'm taking french but im not great so I had to get a french friend to translate for me and this one's about a guy who wakes up in the morning and has a WHOPPING HANGOVER! he then sees a girl who he didnt remember waking up next to him and subsequently vows never to drink again. as if...... i have addicted too.

But- most importantly of all- its my birthday party this weekend and im awesome excited! I turn 15 in august but i cant see my friends so this is just an excuse to splash out. We'ere going to alton towers for the weekend, , suzy, laura and claudia and we're going to scare ourselves to death. If possible. I'm so excited. I've almost forgotten about my french tomorrow!

And ive almost reached the unbelievably small 1k that took me about half a year to get. So thankyou!

AMAZINGLY SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES

1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and presto. The blockage will be almost instantly removed.

2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

3. Avoid arguments with your partner about lifting the toilet seat by simply using the sink.

4. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer.

5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives. Then you will be afraid to cough.

7. Have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a hammer and you will forget about the toothache.

8. Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of life really are: You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

9. Remember: Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.

10. Never pass up an opportunity to go to the bathroom.

11. If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You get another chance.

12. And finally, be really nice to your family and friends; you never know when you might need them to empty your bedpan.

The heading is a direct quote. everyone should read it or suffer the consequences. I converted and and our friend laura and possibly more!

Joing my devotees of the Lies of Locke Lamora! read and obsess!


the other day i was talking to my english teacher and we were discussing the school magazine and she happened to mention that my piece...(which was awesome by the way- really really cool!!!) hadnt been selected so i went away and cried.

not really. i didnt cry but i did go and print off another piece to give to ehr which she's sent away because Im an english obsessive. Not kididng. Reading and writing is practically my life. Just throw some drama in.

Anyhoodlum, its been creeping me out cause all teh teachers ahve been going on about the examns that are in a fortnight as if they were a big deal which theyre not really......^_^ besides i have real GCSE'S as well as hte internal ones so im not gonna get bothered. PROMISE.......

On another note, it was the garden party last weekend which, despite sounding really sad, was incredibly fun as i got to sing some solos and though i was shitting myself, i didnt screw up on, so im happy. very happy. and my friends got to meet my brother and they got on and since this is the one i like, im happy.


BE HAPPY!!! ^_^ :FLOATING:

i was in an A level play for an older girl in my school and cause its all girls i was playing a man. a Scottish man. now, i have problems with accents and so i was agonising over it for ages.....but apparently it was actually quite good. and very funny.....XD

my part was supposed to be funny so im happy...cause people laughed...so worried they wouldnt....

anyhoodlum- it almost crashed cause im in the school choir along with a third of the cast (only 6 of us in it- its a small play...XD) and we were supposed to be singing in bristol the same night as one of the play nights. obviously we had to be in the play, but the music director demanded that we come so we had to go there and perform in this massive cathedral to an audience of the full total of about THREE!!!!! Im not kidding- there ewre three memers of the congregation. i wanted to shoot our dierctor.

so anyway, we had to ruch away and our greek teacher drove us back in what proved to be one of the most hilarious car drives in history. one of the girls gets really scared in cars and so he kept clapping his hands and letting go of the wheel and almost driving into things,.......it was hilarious!!! XD XD XD

so we arrived about 15 minutes before the play with only one rehearsal before the real thing and yet somehow it managed to go quite well.....?

so now Mr whiting is on my deathlist. which doesnt help cause he teaches me the piano.....

in other news and are going to go see the woman in black in london tonight, which is an awesome play and im hoping to see the latter scared out of her skin.... then we're going to my house with a friend (can be seen as lara\leephe in many of 's gallery) and seeing the painted veil with edward norton on sunday......Yaya!

and if you dont hear from me before wednesday i have my grade 6 singing and im the weeiest bit nerous. ....

cause boarding school is the weeniest bit gay, on weekends if we want to go to town or something (or even if we dont want to go) we're forced to do somehting cultural. like look at bluebells. i kid you not. we were forced to drive to a forest and walk up a path to look at bluebells. the most interesting part was the complaining- which we did very wittily....
then me and wasted an hour and a half in cafe nero ordering things at very long intervals so we'd have somewhere to sit whilst we waited for the bus to return so we could leave..... life is good

we've been visited by an author, sarah singleton, who though not very famous was really interesting talking about her books and journalism and crap. quite cool. so cool i almost forgot about my german oral, part of my german gcse and jez had to remind me. *ahem.*

the oral went quite well but after my teacher gave me a well done present of chocolates and i had to find someway of distributing them before i ate them (i gave up chocolate for the year- stupid now i think about it- for disciplinary reasons......XD). this made me sad....

tomorrow i have my french oral but i cant stop thinking about all the stuff i have to write- my english coursework- slightly gay and all the stories i have on the go. dont have my imnd on the job?

happily though my singing teacher has gotten the vocal quintet working on someday (disney hunchback of notre dame) and she said i could sing "nobody does it better" from the spy who loved me. happy happy! XD

daniel radcliffe- who is harry potter in harry potter- i dont know whether its so big in the US but i think so- played alan strang for a season in the west end. funnily enough the part required him to strip off and run around the stage with no clothes on.

we were all very excited........

otherwise it was a brilliant play and although i didnt really like how richard griffiths portrayed dysart- i though he was too relaxed for such a tense character- and i didnt think that radcliffe was as good as the papers hyped him up to be- the play itself is incredible. read it. see it. do it. whatever. its really clever and the dialougue is both intense and hilarious.

and the horses were done really well with some brilliantly creepy sounds and music playing- like hymns from teh revelations sung in latin about equus. oooooooh......!

ill stop now- im sure no one else cares.

and no, i have already had people asking- dont know why someone would want to know what it looked like......jeez guys....GROW UP!

so im sorry if i didnt always comment or crap but with 180 i felt a little bogged down. and i had to do homework. fun.....

i went skiing in france and forget my suncream on the first day and so now my face is actually peeling off. I went all red then brown than pink and now im peeling. i look horrendous. it would be amusing but i think you can fry eggs on my cheeks.

i also did some retarded jump over a house and failed, wiping out and slamming my knee into my eye so it looks like i had a minor fight with a beaver. its drastic im telling you.

the good news is that i managed to do some writing so expect updates. i realize i keep saying this but this time its true. And to everyone

HAPPY JESUS ZOMBIE DAY!!!!!!

we saw awesome places like the parhtenon, the oracle at delphi and agamemnon's palace. can testify.......she was there....!!!

also went to see madmae butterfly in cardiff on thursday. i was exhausted, but i still cant believe some people were able to sleep through it.....it was interesting because it was set in japan, with american characters, sung in italian with welsh and english subtitles. amusing to say teh least. and the little boy who played butterfly's son was unbelievably sweet. i was enthralled.....

Amazingly, today we had d of e which is basically walking 30km over two days and camping out. it rained and was windy so we had a hell of a time... we all got windburnt and me and my friends fell in the mud multiple times. not pretty. we also made up a load of songs to pass hte time and are now very ashamed of. and apparently i swore in my sleep- probably because the condensation in the tent was dripping on lara's head so she rolled on me.....?

i felt ill the whole way- so now im going to stop writing and go to sleep. good night.

so we arent cool whilst we are falling over and stuff cause we just look stupid and its so depressing having to go right back to the beginner slopes and not being able to get off chairlift without falling awkwardly is slightly embarrassing- but practice makes perfect!!!! mihgt be going again this year and ill spend all day every day out on the slopes till im doing balcks gracefully.......so obsessed, and very sad.....

and i gave up chocolate and fizzy drinks for the year- just to see if i could do it- and everyone says i cant so I WILL PROVE THEM WRONG!!!!!!!!! XD XD XD!!!

anyhoo....came back and slept till midday when i got up mum said she was going to the hairdressers, not that anyone cares about my stupid day, and i joking said ill come too and she agreed and i got a haircut and then when i got there the hairdresser suggested lopping off a full two inches and i almost ran out of there with the gown thing still on....still doesnt look too bad..

when we ran out it was raining and i accidentally stepped in a puddle -no laughing i was distracted by this little kids shiny bike....- and the dye on my shoes ran and my feet have been stained a weird shade of blue black.......

so im off to go crazy on ebay and amazon- happy january sales everyone!

Brilliant! ^_^ Not so cool was hte bucket we were supposed to wash out of and you were considered un-eco friendly if you used more than one bucket. it was impossible not to.......

Completely opposed to the whole idea of Christmas though, so no one is getting wisjed a merry christmas. im sorry. more suicides occur over christmas than any other week, as one of my friends put it, bonus week for hte funeral parlours. her words not mine.
