Update!
Jun 30, 2009 // 8:32 AM
Woke up this morning. Decided i had nothing to do, since i went shopping yesterday with Flick (ended up with the new
Glam eyes Mascara by Rimmel- Which is rubbish don't buy it!).
So i decided to make a new layout, and ta-daaaa! I hope you like it, the cat is an image of Jessie (Flicks cat) who is always asleep. Honestly right this minute she is in the hallway...asleep! We have a private joke in our house that Jessie has Narclopsy. She just flops down anywhere and sleeps, its really scary, especially at night when all is quite and dark, then suddenly "
Meow!" she has launched herself upon the bed, and is sleeping right next to you, which makes it difficult to turn over.
I've added some more '
Loved ones', so go check them out :)
Has anyone joined
Goodreads.com? It's a website where you can record what books you have read, currently reading or would like to read. You can also review books you have read and give them a score of 5. It has a huge selection of books on its database that you can search and find reviews, and recomendations from other users.
I am absolutely addicted to it, and have found a fair few books i would like to read. So if you enjoy reading i suggest goodreads :)
I hate having no cash :( When me and Flick went shopping yesterday, i had £200 in my account left over from student loans, and i want to keep it around £200 for a 'just in case' money runs out next year whilst at uni. My sister has a job at River Island, so she has tonnes of money stashed away, she is buying dresses from ASOS.COM whilst i can only afford a measly mascara.
There are no jobs available in Chesterfield, and i supose that a shop would not want to employ a student who will be returning to Nottingham in 3 months. So im stuck with being poor, and having so spare cash to splurge :'(
Much love
Nic

End of an era, and a new beginning
Sep 20, 2008 // 12:48 PM
University life has just started for my sister Flick. She moved in on Thursday, with my teary eyed mother and my father trying to work out how to set up the
Internet, the phone and the TV signal all at the same time, which was rather funny!
Her room looks so,
hmm how can i say this... It looks so...Flick! That the only word to
describe it, because her room no matter where she is, will always look the Flick way. Here is my dictionary
definition:
Flick's room look- this is a style of utter organised chaos, only the owner, Flick knows where items are placed. To any normal person the room looks an absolute tip, but to people who know her or the person in question, the room is a organised filing system.So today, we went over to her uni because it was freshers festival. It was so fun! There was rock climbing, those people who walk on stilts dressed as characters from fairy tales, a huge marquee that housed 3000+ students and family with stalls where the students got some
information from. Oh and a BBQ, with yummy burgers!
Also Flick needed to get some card, which basically lets her be a full student! So were
queuing up for at least half an hour with 10-15 people in front of us, and the bloody
Que doesn't move AT ALL! So i go up to the front to see whats happening, and its utter chaos! All the cards were everywhere, folders with students names were at other ends of the table, rather than the students just saying their name and getting their card, they had to be ticked off a list, that took 10
minutes to locate! Anyway to end this story short they lost Flicks card, then after me complaining (as i do when i ended up
queuing for 1 hour and 30
Min's!!!) to the guy about the system they have not working and it being ridiculous, they found the card!
Phew
that's my rant over! Think happy thoughts
Nichola!
OK and some more bad news
I'm afraid :( My guinea- pig was very very old, and its sister died at least 4 months ago. So yesterday my dad was at the house and checked on the guinea pig (Millie), she was sat in a corner, she
couldn't move to get water or food, so my dad had to feed her for a while so she
wasn't dehydrated or hungry. The next day mum and dad took Millie to the vets. They said that her heart
wasn't beating very fast and basically has hours to live :'( So we ended up having to let her go by putting her down :''( So i was
extremely sad that day.
But on a lighter note,
I'M GETTING THE WHOLE GRANT FOR UNI!!! (Well hopefully anyway, as my dad
isn't working anymore due to retirement, so he wont be getting a whole chunk of money as he use to!) Even though my dad will be earning lots of money through a turntable
business :) super
happiness time 10!!!
