Blogger, I am sorry.

I have been neglecting you nearly as badly as I've neglected YouTube. Well, not quite that badly...I have been keeping up with the blogs I follow, whereas I haven't watched any of my subscriptions. My Internet is ridiculous and nothing will load past thirty seconds, so there's no point even trying.

So what have I been up to? I'm back at school now so it's been homework, uni applications, volunteering in the Music department and epic piles of books on my desk next to my laptop. It's a strange collection:
  • The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
  • Love and Longing by various authors
  • A View from the Bridge by Arthur Miller
  • The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and My Hyde by R.L. Stevenson
  • Whigs, Radicals and Liberals 1815-1914 by some historian called Watts
  • Hamlet by Shakespeare (but if you didn't know that, what is wrong with you?)
  • The Aeneid by Virgil
  • Oh What A Lovely War which apparently doesn't have an author...interesting...

Add to that my digital camera, the notebook in which I write down all the books I read, my school pencil case, the Gossip Girl season 1 boxset, a congratulations card from my family after my AS results, a Harry Potter mug full of pens and pencils, a pack of Post-It notes, a packet of tissues with sheep on them and many other miscellaneous items and you get an idea of how hectic my life is getting.

I have managed to get rid of some of the commitments I had last year, such as Junior Orchestra where I played percussion and my dancing lessons. It was really sad leaving my dance school after 12 years and I sent a tear-stained thank you card to my dancing teachers, but it's for the best. I already have too much on my plate. By which I mean I shouldn't be writing this - I should be doing my personal statement and research for my Drama homework.

Also, this is my 50th blogpost. I think I've just reached a milestone...go me!

Bye

<3
