Sorry this is EXTEMELY late being posted, I've just not felt very well the past few days and I've also been busy with personal and uni work. So here's the post for Thursday!
It's my Mom's birthday today but sadly, due to her having work she couldn't stay at home and celebrate it. We was going to go out and have a meal but due to her having work, that she would have been too tired after work to go out and also because of the snow we're going to do something when the snow has gone away and when she doesn't have work.
Anyhoo, today I decided to hand my essay in a day before it's due date. I decided to because of reports of there being more snow overnight, so I wanted to make sure I could hand it in early instead of worrying of handing it in late and losing marks.
After handing my essay in I went with my Dad to do a few things and stopped off at Iceland on the way home for some things.
Since Wednesday I have been watching Ugly Betty season one again and I finished watching the whole season tonight. I intend to start watching season two tomorrow. I've started to watch Ugly Betty again because my boyfriend has bought me season three for my birthday. I can't wait to watch it again!
Also tonight I got the second chosen chapter from my book written for my creative writing essay. NOW all I have left to do is the epilogue and commentary! I think it's 1,500 words but I need to make sure of this!
Anyhoo that's enough for now!

January 6th 2010
Guess what? It's my birthday today!
I turned 20, so I guess I'm getting old now. In all honesty I wasn't looking forward to today, due to the snow being so heavy that I wasn't able to see my boyfriend or go out and do anything for it. Luckily I got to do one of those.
My Dad and brother got back from the shops with cards for me and they're all beautiful! My Mom's one is very pretty. It's purple with a pretty dressing table on it. My Dad's has a cute kitten in a box on it and it's a baby bluuuue. The one from my brother has flowers on it and a lovely message and one from a friend has Hello Kitty on it! I didn't get many pressies on this actual day due to not seeing people or delivery being slow. My friend bought me some Hello Kitty stuff and my brother gave me £10. My boyfriends bought me Ugly Betty season 3, but it hasn't come in the post yet.
Soooo I decided due to the snow that I would have to stay in. So I put on Ugly Betty season 1 and decided to write down some fashionable clothes I want to get for 2010. But my Dad suggested going out so I quickly turned off Ugly Betty and jumped in the shower.
I decided to dress nicely, as I had a feeling we'd go for something to eat. I put some black tights, denim shorts, black boots, white tunic t-shirt with a HUGE print of a union jack on, my purple beret, huuge red duffle coat, red, white and blue gloves and my union jack scarf.
We went shopping for some food first and then headed over to a nice little pub. The snow made it feel so magical and lovely.
I had yummy Bailey's coffee, which I'll definatly be having again! Me and my Dad couldn't decide on what to eat, so I chose to have some chicken with bacon and melted cheese and chips, so he had the same and ordered extra chips for us to have.
Even though it was just me and my Dad, it felt so lovely to have a meal out for my birthday. I haven't done it since I turned 18 and that was a bit of a nightmare to be honest.
I especially loved taking pictures with my Dad, it was so much fun! Two pictures were of best memory. One picture I went to take a shot from above my head, but he put his finger under my chin so I quickly pulled a face looking at it.
We also had pudding to treat ourselves. I had orange marble cake with ice cream and chocolate sauce and my Dad had apple pie with custard.
It's been so lovely today! I could cry from how great it went, due to me worrying and feeling depressed that it was going to be horribly boring and dull.
I thank all the people who have wished me a Happy Birthday!
To think I still have a while left for my birthday, seeing as it's only 10.18pm. I need to celebrate a bit more!

Sorry for posting late, only just had time to post due to creative writing work swamping me all day.
Today has been alright. Had to miss out seeing my boyfriend due to my essay needing to be done and had been pretty sucessful. Nearly finished the chapter, with two of the three parts of the chapter done. Sadly they haven't been very enjoyable to do and I was close to tears on a few occasions. I knew I had to keep strong though, I want Madge to be proud of me so writing this about her is showing the world what a beautiful dog she was and how they missed out on not having the pleasure of meeting her.
Other than that I pretty much chilled out as well. I'm one of these people who HAS to multitask while they do work. I feel weird if I just concentrate on work and don't dot back and forth from Facebook, to MSN, to YouTube. Even iTunes snuck in for some fun, but not for long. Since my first year of university, I can no longer concentrate whilst listening to a film or song while doing essay work. Not even for writing, it just puts me off.
Early hours of the 4th January I read a couple of chapters of Marley & Me and it's such an inspiration for my own book about Madge. I hope to have finished it in the next few weeks so I can get more inspiration for my book.
It's my friend Krystal's birthday on the 5th (Happy Birthday hun!) and she's going to be 21-key of the door. That's a saying by the way, I just had to ask my Dad what it was for aged 21. Loser much?
Anyways, I'm gunna go read some more Marley & Me and hopefully get an earlier nights sleep than usual.
Night all!

Just remembered something
Another resolution I'd like to do this year is go to a festival!
It's going to either be Download, Sonisphere or The Big Chill.
Also, I couldn't see my boyfriend today due to bloody uni work. Annoying much? But at least it will keep my mind at rest that I'm getting it finished for next week when the hand in date is due.
I wanted to show it my tutors beforehand, so fingers crossed I can!
Anyway, this was only a short blog.
Toodles!

More work done!
YAY! I'm so glad my creative writing work is going so smoothly! Even though I'm staying up until late doing my work.
I just finished my 500 word book review for Marley & Me.
I'm planning on getting more books to read this year and here's a short list of some I would like to get.
Think I shall compare prices on websites and then go to bed. It is 3.45am after all!

- Sex and the City by Candace Bushnell, as I've always wanted to read the book.
- The Carrie Diaries also by Candace Bushnell as it sounds very interesting.
- The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger.
- And last of all Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella.
Think I shall compare prices on websites and then go to bed. It is 3.45am after all!
