The swinging of the mood

No specific subject for the blog today really. Today was the day I had been dreading for months, results day. But for a nice change, I didn't end up crying from disappointment, I cried with joy as I had not got a single bad grade and did alot better than I anticipated. Yay! I hope everyone else got what they wanted, or rather what they deserved.

Hugs and congratulations from the tutors who know me best and the people who do too. For then it all to be turned upside down on its head to this horrible mood now. It's not hormonal, nothing of that sort, just because of something so small yet ridiculously annoying!

Men, I really don't know how they do it, I'm open to any suggestions and any convents that are in the area so I can become a nun!

Lube Songs

A twitter trend that caught my eye yesterday called "change love to lube songs". So basically you change the word love in a song to lube, immature I know but me and some friends from college compiled a list of lube songs and so far we have 90 (ish) songs! So I shall our list with you:

You give lube a bad name,
Can you feel the lube tonight?
When a man lubes a woman,
Where is the lube?
Crazy in lube,
Lube is all around,
You've got the lube,
Bleeding Lube,
I don't lube you,
A million lube songs,
Lube me for a reason,
I lube you,
Find your lube,
Stop in the name of lube,
And the lube kickstarts again,
The greatest lube of all,
I will always lube you,
Lube the way you lie,
I hate that I lube you,
Make you feel my lube,
Lube in an elevator,
Lube actually,
Sugar baby lube,
My first lube,
She will be lubed,
Lube is in the air,
She's so lubely,
This years lube,
Lube lockdown,
Tonight I'm lubing you,
I'm not in lube,
Lube in this club,
Lube shack,
Lubers in Japan,
Accidentally in lube,
As long as you lube me,
Crazy little thing called lube,
Lube game,
Baby lube,
Easy luber,
DJ's got us falling in lube again,
Endless lube,
Everlasting lube,
Everyday I lube you less and less,
How deep is your lube,
I believe in a thing called lube,
I'll make lube to you,
Your lube is my drug,
If this isn't lube,
Lube machine,
Lay all your lube on me,
Its the falling in lube,
Let me lube you,
Like I lube you,
Make lube in this club,
Lube generation,
This ain't a lube song,
I need your lube,
Belly lube,
Do you lube her,
My lube,
Do you lube me still,
Everybody lubes me,
Got no lube,
My lube is pink,
I want to be lubed,
One lube,
Seasons of lube,
Sexy lube,
Stereo lube,
Summer of lube,
Taking back my lube,
She lubes me not,
Lube drunk,
What is lube,
Teenage lube affair,
The one i lube,
Carpal tunnel of lube,
The power of lube,
Addicted to lube,
To Sir, with lube,
Undercover luber,
What is lube,
Without lube,
Whats lube got to do with it,
You're nobody til somebody lubes you.

Laugh away . .

That "Future"

As I near the milestone that is becoming 18, I start to wonder what will happen or rather what will change as I venture into adulthood.
There are many things to consider such as: will I go to uni? will I be with my boyfriend for the rest of my days? how am I going to keep in touch with everyone?
But at the end of it all, you can never plan for all outcomes and situations that may just be around that corner, all you can come up with are theories, possible solutions to those theories and i guess back-up plans. When thinking about these things, you end up with a tension headache from thinking about all the hurdles, the hurt and heightening stress levels as things progress and become more formal and I guess more mature. You won't have those days where you can just go and buy a guitar, you have to think what else you will need that money for, car insurance? rent? utility bills? It's those thoughts that make you want to stay 17 forever.
University will be one of the toughest decisions of my life. Where to go? Well the plan is to stay local I guess, close to family and the boyfriend, be able to keep a job and not live off baked beans. But then you think, if this is going to be a once in a lifetime thing, shouldn't I be going away and finding my independence as an adult, build life skills, financial skills and experience youth in the 21st century way. Are things holding me back or rather are people, is it the costs that come with higher education? So many things that are impossible to weigh, impossible to measure and impossible to ever predict.
As life progresses, you can't plan every stage of your life. You can't depend on others to make your decisions and most definitely can't let them influence them. Independence is a scary prospect, but the start of an exciting chapter of my life is even more tempting . .

Dates

Keeping the romance and the spark in a relationship is so important, if you don't try to keep it alight, it will just disappear. So we try to do something together every Friday if possible i.e. a date night. Sometimes we will go out for a meal and sometimes we'll stay in with a takeaway. The thing that annoys me most is how expensive it can be for a meal out! sometimes it can come up to £50 just for the 2 of you, it's a piss take.
I'm the one with the job currently in the relationship so I can be pretty restrictive with my money seeing as I have so many things to save for and a few big events coming up to pay for (my boyfriends surprise, it's getting rather close to the £300 mark . .), I just wish I could enjoy my money! I wish I could go shopping and blow a few hundred! I have never ever done that, unless you count paying £300 in the travel agent on a holiday as shopping.
And getting around, I'm paying £30 a month for a bus card which is perfect for college but I hate buses! They are so unreliable and I want to learn to drive. But again it's something else to save up for . . .
I'm young, I want to enjoy the youth I have because it passes so quickly, but money doesn't grow on trees . . .

New year, new me?

This year (2010) has to be one of the quickest years I have ever witnessed. And as it's the last day of 2010, I think it's the best time to reflect on what has happened over the past 12 months.

  • I've lost someone very dear to me, but I have gained someone very special.
  • I turned my grades around when it seemed impossible, and with that came more confidence in myself.
  • I did something I never thought I would ever do, a wild holiday in Corfu with 2 girl mates from college. And that's another thing, I never thought it would be with "girl mates" after all my previous trouble with friendships.
  • I had 2 very important dreams made true by one very special guy.
  • I found the confidence to read publicly at a funeral service. And to not stutter for the first time.
  • I realised that there is so much more to my future than a career. And that the taste I had of travelling independently this summer, is something I want to pursue more broadly whilst I'm young.
  • I had my first job, which taught me a lot about people and a lot about managing my money and how good it felt to earn my own money and never have to ask my parents.
Mostly importantly, it was a year of firsts for me. Some I'm glad I experienced, and a few, not so much. But I can safely say I have learnt a lot valuable life lessons.

So onto new years resolutions. My 2010 new years resolution was to not eat a single crisp for the whole year. And I haven't! So I'm starting to think, perhaps that was a bit too easy. My original idea was to keep a daily diary of thoughts, a bit like bridget jones I guess. So in a few years time when I read it back, I can recall the months leading up to and after I turn 18 and become a legal adult. I think this is what I shall do :)
I also have alot of other things I want to complete this year, it's going to be very exciting!

Wishing anyone who reads this crap a very happy new year and hope that all that they wish for comes true. Because if the right person comes along, your dreams can come true.

Girls things say they don't like, but they really do . .

Us females, are rather complicated I have to admit. In the way that we say we don't want guys to do this and do that but really, we actually do . .

For example:

1) "Nooo I don't want you ever paying for me to go out for dinner!" - probably the most common. We say this to be polite and we say this because we don't want to sound like we're being bought by them paying to do things. Us paying for ourselves gives us that bit of independence that we need in the relationship. But, truth is, we actually don't mind if you offer to take turns in paying or atleast offer. And of course pay if it's a special occasion because lets face it, we'd be pretty pissed if you didn't . .

2) "Girls hate flowers really" - SO WRONG. Girls love it. We eat it up like our favourite chocolate. It makes us feel special and that being given flowers is like our life as turned into a rom-com for a moment. So on birthdays, or anniversaries or even if your saying sorry, a bunch only costs a few quid . .

Will explain some more tomorrow . . zzzzzzzz.

Give it a go, or never know

There are too many "What if?" questions haunting us.

For example:
"What if I had said yes when he asked me out?"
"What if that had happened when I was there?"

What if we actually just went for it, took the bull by the horns and lived a little. Because, life is too short and full of unexpected twists and turns. It's unpredictable, which gives it that excitement. The time you say yes to doing something you wouldn't ever dare to do, that's when you realise "Why have I been saying no all this time?" because the fear of the unknown can give you such a buzz. This of course can be interpretted into many situations.

From my own experience, the phrase what if has haunted me in the past, not too long ago if I'm honest. For me it was "What if things had worked out the first time?".
I was 14, I had this huge crush on a guy in my business class but I was wish someone else. I dumped my boyfriend at the time because I just wanted the other guy, who we shall call Dave (for privacy reasons). I loved everything about him, but it turned out that when he got me, he didn't quite know what to do after that, so he dumped me infront of his mates (how immature i know, I kneed him in the balls not too long before that, so I guess it's Karma). I hated him. I was a teenage girl, low self esteem, you know the story.
But now I believe that it wasn't the right time for things to work out. I mean come on I was only 14! But I don't think your ever too young to fall in love. And I think this because, the same guy who captured me nearly 4 years ago, is the guy I'm with now.

So somehow, everything works out in your favour. I'm not saying that everyones situations will end so happily as mine as I'm the exception, not the rule. But everything does happen for a reason. Live a little, and don't let those 2 little words haunt you . .
