Today whilst everyone else was out I did some singing, as loud and as good as I could, Suzy used to make a point of liking my singing, I think I’ve just about given up that dream, i mean, I can’t pull off the obligatory hotpants =P
But it was nice to sing a bit, I need some nice songs to sing, things that I can sing well with nice lyrics that are beautiful
Maybe I should take Frank Turner’s advice and “Try This At Home” [on the new album, gonna be awesome]
So I had some ice cream today, still haven’t made any lemonade
A Day of the Triffids BBC remake is going to be shown soon! exciting!
And I’ve done all my maths summer work now. I need to buy a lab coat for science, I wonder if they let you have nice pretty coloured ones instead of plain white? I’ve also been researching the scandalous lives of physicists a bit, for Alice, and have discovered they are a very tame lot, why that drama queen likes it is therefore a mystery
I don’t know what to get Livvi for her birthday… I shall have to check the usual birthday presents store, they used to have one in Kingston, but it closed down, oh well, they still have one is Greeny Green Ealing
This new white paper about schools sounds a bit formidable, sounds like it’s harder to become a teacher…
So I haven’t blogged for a while, people actually told me to update [aw, how sweet, they care :) ] and I got alt text :D
Today we went to a wedding, and I wore a red bow barette in my hair, technically a clip, so, y’know, things went wrong, on the way home our car broke down and we had to wait on the A4 for some tow truck, which towed the car home and took us home too, and I had my uncomfortable apple jelly sandals on. We were late to the wedding before this as well, but it didn’t matter so much, lots of other people were late too, it was a big wedding.
I think I want a small wedding, I’ll only invite people who I know will care about me getting married, people who know me well? I’ve already promised Ellie she can come, she’s never been to one. I need to get married, I need to change my surname, although this morning on Breakfast they were talking about how feminists did not fight for the right to keep maiden names just so we can all carry on changing our names when we get married, and about how double-barrelled surnames may nlead to quadruple-barrelled surnames. I think I’ll miss my name a little bit though, the being different, the moaning I get to do about it, the yelling at people who don’t acknowledge that names can be longer than 15 characters, if i had a middle name I could maybe have a name longer than the alphabet, oh how wonderfully special that would be…
It was the art show a few days ago and it was nice to see people and people’s families, and marvel at how high some of the paintings were hung up.
I got made a prefect last week as well. How on earth did that happen? Everyone has confirmed my worry that the only reason I applied was so I could get a job looking after the Year 7s, but Goldie got this job, and Goldie will be brilliant at it I know so well done her! I’m just worried about whether I will now not enjoy the rest of my duties much, although I mustn’t moan as I’m lucky to have been picked, and some of my friends didn’t :(
I’m wearing mascara today so my eyelashes are lovely and stiff, maybe I should start wearing Real make up one day, with like concealer and foundation and stuff, any thoughts, ooh! how about a poll?
I’m wearing nail polish again, my mother told me to put some on for the wedding, also on the way there we saw a car with the same two-tone colour effect as the skirt of my half-sari
I’m listening to Bloc Party, it’s nice background music
OH! also, as i was adding tags, just remembered, I saw Frank Turner at Banquet Records on friday :) his new songs are good, he was busy doing 24 hours of gigs though, so there was only time for a few songs, still awesome
Today I did art, of my own accord, sure, it was just splattering pink and silver paint over a canvas, witht he plan to draw some charcoal umbrellas on later, but it was art, i also did a few charcoal doodles, well i’ve recovered from the trauma of art coursework remarkably quickly.
The other out of character thing: I doubt i’ll finish my book of the day today, just as well as I need to get out more
Song of the Day: 21 Guns by Green Day, it’s awesome
1 good thing: my mother bought me white bread even though she moans that white bread is bad, cause she doesn’t want me to die, she said she’d rather i was obese than starving, hm…
Well, did the music one count? Sophia, and Livvi, and Imogen all suggested i have a blog, and the final votes were 5 for, -1 against, and 22 on the fence, using my own specific weighting system, where people pick how much their votes are worth, and I am easily persuaded, especially by those who appreciate numbers.
So I took so long to write this cause i needed a name for my blog. Parisa almost immediately suggested blogarithms, this, i thought, was genius, but alas it was already taken. So after many maths, music, physics, biology and chemistry related suggestions we came onto musicals. Should i really have a musical-y blog name, not sure i’m quite worthy, but i am a drama queen.
Now what of interest happened tody? i went swimming and my hair got frizzy and then i got hungry and then i washed my hair and then i dried my hair so now it’s not frizzy. My hair is pretty low maintenance, for that i am thankful.
Also, i want to be on the 4th plinth of trafalagar square, i think i’d just sing for an hour, whatever came into my head, they might think me crazy. It’s hard to make this blog pretty, i want a nice pink blog, but the only pink theme has flowers on it, and i’m not in a flower-y mood.
I read my 4th book of the summer today, averaging one a day from thursday, i’ve got to stop sometime though, and make some lemonade and bake some fairy cakes. My, being a stepford wife is tiring, atleast i get to wear pretty clothes.
Better than hotpants, which i think i’m a bit over now.
the word count was just 272, i think that is my cue.
I should try a rhyming blog…
Song in my head: Katherine Kiss Me by Franz Ferdinand, lovely and acousitc =], when i was swimming it made me think of Front Crawl ^^, i love that song, but no-one likes to hear me sing it, but, y’know, doctors don’t have to sing in the same way they don’t wear hotpants
1 good thing about today: I had cherries for breakfast
