Hey!
I've been revising so hard the last week for my French speaking exam and a history test. On Tuesday, I started freaking out, thinking that even though I'd been revising so hard I'd forget my French when it came to the exam and because I'd mainly been revising for my French, I would fail the history test on the same day.
All day yesterday (that's when I had the tests) I had massive butterflies and I wouldn't stop shaking. In the end, the speaking went quite well and so did the history. I managed to answer all the questions in history, but whether I put the right information in...well, that's another story!
Unfortunately, Chloe got nervous and forgot the answers to the questions in the speaking exam. She was so upset, and I felt awful. Luckily, Chloe is allowed to retake the exam on Tuesday and I'm so happy for her! I've never seen her so determined and positive! I know she will do it, and Chloe if you are reading this, I know I've said it before but I will help you revise if you need it!
I'm going to go relax now!
Bye!X x x

My Week Off School (and boring revision)
Hi!
I haven't posted in a while because I have a week off school and I have been very busy! Unfortunately...I'm back to school tomorrow.
Anyway, it's been a good week! On Monday, it was Taryn's birthday and we went bowling. I came last in 2 games and second in the final game. Then we went to see A Good Day To Die Hard, which was pretty damn awesome. Chloe and I stayed at Taryn's that night and we watched The Woman in Black, Skyfall (which we paused half way through and had a 3 hour chat, before playing it again), The Rocky Horror Picture Show (which is probably one of the weirdest films I have ever watched!), Final Destination and The perks of Being a Wallflower. We woke up at 3 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon, so I spent most of Tuesday at Taryn's. Taryn and I got really hyper and started throwing skittles at her Daniel Craig poster, to the point where we were throwing them everywhere and Taryn threw the bag in the air.
On Wednesday, I went to my friend Maia's house and then she cam back to mine to stay. We watched the Hangover, which is such a good film. I love Alan and the Chinese guy, Chow. Bradley Cooper is yummy! Thursday was a lazy day, then on Friday I went to this place called The Think Tank with my family. It's like this science museum but it's very interactive and there are people doing experiments. I got to do the experiment where you mix cornflour and water and put it on a stereo, where it jumps all around. It was pretty awesome, because since seeing it on The Big Bang Theory, I always wanted to try it. On Friday night, Maia stayed over again and we ate M&Ms and Jellybeans which was fun. We watched a really cheesy film called Lovewrecked and then we watched The Dictator. It was funny, but such a weird film. Then we watched The Goonies, which is one of the best films ever (you have not lived if you have not watched the Goonies!). Yesterday was a lazy day for me and today I am writing this, when really I'm supposed to be revising for my French speaking exam.
I really regret taking French. I wish I took food tech instead, then I would have every lesson with Taryn! And I can actually cook!
Why do we get homework over the holidays? One of the reasons we have holidays is so we get a break from work. Homework ruins everything!
Last night I had this dream where this really cute guy off Glee (Blake Jenner) was my boyfriend. I think it's because his character, Ryder, likes this girl, Marley, but Marley likes another guy Jake, who she asked out because Ryder had to cancel going on a date with her because he found out he had dyslexia and had to see someone about it. Ryder and Jake fought over Marley but Ryder let Jake have her because he could tell that Marley liked him. Now Jake and Ryder are good friends and Ryder has to put all his feelings for Marley aside because Jake and Marley are going out. Until...the Valentines Day episode! Jake doesn't know what to get Marley, but luckily with the help of Ryder, he gets by. Ryder helps him perform a song for Marley and he arranges a bouquet of flowers for her which have her favourite flowers and he gives Jake a necklace to give to Marley. Ryder eventually says to Jake that at least one of the ideas should be his, but Jake just says that all his ideas are rubbish and he reveals that he just wants to get laid. I feel really bad for Ryder because Marley thinks it's Jake and Ryder sits there looking upset. I respect him for helping Jake though, and not trying to sabotage his relationship with Marley. At the end of the episode Marley goes up to Ryder and gives him a Valentines card and says thank you, because she knows it was him telling Jake what to do. Then Ryder kisses her (which she doesn't pull away from) and you just really want them to be together! Why can't some guys (particularly in my school) be like Ryder Lynn? He's so thoughtful.
Anyway, I better go and revise some more!

Taryn's Birthday!
Hey again!
So on Monday (the 18th) It's Taryn's birthday! Woohoo! I can't wait! Taryn, Chloe and I are all meeting at McDonalds, then we are going bowling, then we are going to watch A Good Day To Die Hard (eeeeek!), after that we are going back to Taryn's for a sleepover! We are going to watch lots of movies and eat Nachos, sweets and popcorn! I'm so excited!
Hopefully this time I won't fall asleep too early! The last time Chloe and I stayed at Taryn's, I fell asleep at 1 in the morning and Taryn and Chloe fell asleep at half four/ five! But that was after a long week at school, and Taryn's birthday will be in the holidays, so I will have a lot more energy!
Just a quick update, I'm going to finish watching The Perks of Being a Wallflower!
Night! X x x

Imagine Dragons
Hey!
So lately I've been listening to this really good band called Imagine Dragons. The first time I heard one of their songs, it was on the Perks of Being a Wallflower trailer. It's called It's Time and I couldn't stop listening to it. Then, I went on iTunes and they do a "Free Song of the Week" so I decided to have a look what it was. It was an Imagine Dragons song called Round and Round. I'm sooo happy I downloaded it because it's a brilliant song!
It was only a few days ago I decided to listen to more of there songs. Here are some of my favourite Imagine Dragons songs:
(Click on the song title and it will let you listen to it on Youtube)

Harry Potter
Hey!
Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've been busy with homework and revision and I've been with some friends over the weekend.
So right now, I am watching Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets on ITV 1 +1. Those of you who know me will know I am OBSESSED with Harry Potter. I own all the books and films, which I have read and watched more times than I can count, and I still never get bored of it. I have even been to the Harry Potter Studio Tour in London, where most of the movies were filmed, twice (In the same year!).
Last week, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (The first book/film in the series) was on. It's adorable seeing them look so young! If I see that a Harry Potter film is coming on TV, I HAVE to watch it! I'm really hoping that ITV are going to show each film, one every Sunday, and that they'll show Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 and 2, which haven't been shown on ITV yet.
Even though I LOVE the first three books/films, I think the story gets much more darker and interesting from the Goblet of Fire (fourth film/book) onwards. I'll admit, I cry at all the films from the Goblet of Fire onwards!
In the past, I have been bullied and teased about the fact that I am obsessed with Harry Potter. Even if some people won't admit it, we all have our obsessions, and Harry Potter is just one of mine (along with The Hunger Games Trilogy, Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Ed Sheeran and sooo much more). I honestly could not care less about what people think about my obsession. Harry Potter is frickin' awesome!
I got really bored a while ago and drew this...
So that's all I have to say right now.
Here are the trailers for all the Harry Potter Films!:

Citizenship Day
Hi!
So today in school we had a citizenship day about democracy and animal rights (For those of you who don't know what a citizenship day is, it is basically a full day of learning pointless stuff and "widening our understanding of the world around us").
Each class had to present a persuasive argument for either being fully in favour of animal testing, only in favour of animal testing for medicine or completely against animal testing. My class got only in favour of animal testing for medicine. We named our group the Purple Orange Majorly Awesome Giant Huge Massive Medicine Manipulators (don't ask!). We thought it was going to be so boring, but the presentation turned out to be the complete opposite!
Firstly, Harrison was our group leader so he had to give a speech about our views on animal testing for medicine. He wrote this grand, dramatic speech that sounded like it was made by the King. This is where we got the idea to make our presentation funny, so people would vote for us. Jasmine and Harriet used eye liner and drew glasses, a moustache and a mono-brow on Harrison and he was to read the speech out in a funny posh accent. Then, Hannah and I stuck loads of pieces of paper together to make a giant sheet for Harrison to burst through in the Assembly.
In the assembly, Harrison- behind the large sheet of paper- shouted "Introducing...MR FIGGLEHORN!" in his funny accent and burst through the paper. Taryn and I were in stitches from that moment on and couldn't stop. I think we were laughing more than anyone else in the hall! Needless to say, all our hard work was totally worth it since we won the "election"!
Then, we had this old teacher called Mr Owens who was debating Chloe,Taryn, Hannah, Jasmine and I because we said we had no intentions in voting in the future. He went on and on about how women fought for the right to vote years ago and we would be abusing this right by not voting. Yes we have the right to vote, but we do not have to use this right. We all said that we thought all politicians are lying frauds and to vote would be a waste of time.
Next, we had to do a vote about animal rights and Mr Owens said that if we didn't want to vote, we could deface the paper. BIG MISTAKE! We all scribbled and drew smiley faces and animals.
Chloe kept making little people out of bluetac too and she is very talented at it!
Today wasn't too bad I guess, but at least I got to spend it with my friends!
I need to go because I am so tired, I feel like a zombie!
Bye! X x x

- The fourth song plays when you're forced to kill your loved one: Mumford and Sons-Not With Haste
- The fifth song plays when you find your new love interest: Paramore-The Only Exception
- The sixth song plays when you make your final stand: Coldplay-Major Minus
- The seventh song plays when you (think you) make it through: Civil Twilight-Letters From the Sky
- The eight song plays when you discover a bite mark on you: Taylor Swift Feat. Ed Sheeran-Everything has Changed
So there it is! My "Zombie Apocalypse Playlist"!
