LET'S TALK ABOUT EVERYTHING

So blog... It's been a while. Hope you've been keeping well. The place is quite tidy. Nice job. Think I'll take the keys back now.

Anywho...

Tons of crap to dispell here, so this might be a lengthy one.
Let's get the shameless plug out of the way first?

My sister and I do a weekly podcast which is occasionally pretty funny. Give it a listen. People reading this blog probably have enough spare time to do so. It's called What Up! and you can find it at http://www.wum.mypodcast.com/ , http://whatup-medforth.podomatic.com/ or on iTunes!
If you like it (or don't!) feel free to comment with any constructive criticism or stuff you want more of!

Next up, exams! They are officially over, and were definitely one of the reasons why I've been so crap at blogging. Here's a quick rundown of how I feel they went in the order I took them.

Drama - The one I was most worried about which sort of turned out ok. Aside from the first three questions. They sucked.
English - Least worried about this one, but it has the nastiest questions. Still think I did good though as once I knew what I wanted to do I didn't struggle.
History - Exam that I had revised the least for which turned out to be the most enjoyable. Might've been because it was my last, but the questions were also perfect and I managed to write loads. Just hope it wasn't all crap.

And now exams are over, I have a wonderfully free summer ahead of me - Hell. Yes.

That might also mean you get a few more blog posts (from time to time ;)

Next. Doctor Who. I won't go on about this, as I know of at least two people who'll have already picked apart and raved about the best parts of the finale in their own blogs. Then there's the rest of the internet...
I'll just tell you this. Before this series, I really didn't like Doctor Who much. I could somewhat see the appeal in the Doctor's adventures, but I personally felt that the way the BBC was executing it was marred by poor special effects and even poorer writing. The trailer for the new series with Matt Smith as the Doctor actually intrigued me. Ever since 'The Eleventh Hour' (the first episode of the latest series) I've been hooked and it has fast become one of my favourite TV shows. I just want to congratulate Steven Moffat, Matt Smith, Karen Gillan - who is smokin' by the way - and all others involved in the creation of these past 13 episodes on a damn near flawless season of television. I cannot wait to see where they go next with it.

Ok. That's all for now, but I have ideas for some more blog posts brewing already, so get ready for what will hopefully be a blinding summer, with the occasional mundane blog post from me documenting the (probably) boring stuff I'll be doing.

Today is the day...

...that Drama revision will hopefully be beaten with a stick.

Nearly two months...

I would apologise, but I doubt anyone who even glances at this blog cares enough to be bothered whether I post or not lol.

My sister and I started a podcast recently. We mostly bullshit about random stuff, and it doesn't seem to be too badly received so far.
You can listen and download it from http://whatup-medforth.podomatic.com/ and http://www.wum.mypodcast.com/ (the website that rarely works). You can also grab it on itunes.
If you've got any comments, let us know and we might even throw you a shout out on the show.

Exams impending, so of course most of my time is seemingly being spent procrastinating. I made a fairly good start on revision last week, but as of today, kinda slowing up a little - hence the post really.

Most everything else is good. Failed my second driving test, but I've got a few things to look forward to - Lady Gaga on sunday and of course half term next week. Hoping to enjoy myself a little amidst what revision I do get done.

In the meantime, best of luck to all those who do have exams. Those who don't - count yourselves lucky!

Blog, it's been far too long...

Can't quite believe its been a month, but I guess it has...
So, on with the show.

Uni choices have gone through. Loughborough as firm and Kent as insurance. For those who don't understand any of that, look it up.
That means I have to get on with ugly things such as student finance, which should be all kinds of fun...
Other ugly things include History coursework, which really shouldn't have been put off, but moving back home (we rented a house elsewhere for almost a year whilst some SLOW renovation works took place) has caused all sorts of chaos, meaning I've also got all manner of boxes around my room that still require unpacking.

However, the ugliest of all has to be this strange depression of sorts that has crept up on me since Thursday night. No idea as to the real reason behind it yet, but I'm sure there's a plethora of things that have contributed to it.
Ah well, maybe they'll get dissected on this very blog if I actually manage to get some work done...

Hope all you out there in the world of the internets have a happier Easter than the one I'm having at the moment!

So...

Think I probably pissed off the admissions officer at UEA today by telling them that I'm not actually going to go to their audition day tomorrow.

Good job I don't want to go there really.

In other news, lots and lots of school work. A levels are such fun...

Three Awesome Things

1. The aforementioned party I went to last night. Great music provided by a nice combo of band/DJ along with fantastic company. Met some lovely new people as well as enjoying it with the stalwart party animals. Drinks were a little overpriced, but it could've been a lot worse.

2. McDonald's Drive Thru at 1 in the morning. Minus Car. Yup, two friends and I queued up behind the cars in a civilised manner and did what none of us thought possible. Ordered at the drive thru without a car. The magnificence of that moment made the double cheeseburger I had taste even better :D

3. LOVE by Angels & Airwaves. This was one of the things that really made my Valentine's Day. I won't go into a full scale rave review hear, but if you've liked what they've done in the past, you should really enjoy this. For those who don't or aren't aware of the band, give it a shot anyways - it won't cost you a penny. Here's where you can download it:

And if you don't like it, pass it along to someone else who might!

If procrastination prevails today, you can probably look forward to another post, if not, I'll be sure to update it at least once more this week. Maybe there's hope for this blog after all...
