Until Next Time A Girl With A Dream

One more day of school

Only one more day of school and two exams.  This year has gone so fast it seems like it has been ten minutes since I was filling in application forms and deciding what university that I wanted to go to. Now im planning how to get the best grades to make sure I am accepted to uni. People say that as you get older time passes quicker.  Tomorrow is my last day ever at school. Tonight i put my false nails on so writing this post is taking forever but I love them they are the same colour as my dress and they sparkle so I love this. Tomorrow I will be in school for three hours in the morning then I will come home and go to the hair dressers. I don't know how long I will be at the hair dressers for as I am having my hair cut, washed and dried then I am having it pinned and curled. Then when I get home Evie should be at mine, shell then do my make up and I might do her make up I don't know we will wait and see. Then on the evening I go back to school to get some year photos but a...

It doesn't rain it pours.

I got to see Gatsby today and my uncle got to meet Gatsby. Today was my weekly lesson. When we got there it looked like the sun was going to come out, it had been raining earlier but there were blue skies and even a bit of sunshine. I groomed Gatsby and tacked him up and even got to get on him early. When I got on him he initially seemed to be quite lazy which we were expecting as he is now turned out at night. We spent some time warming up getting both Gatsby and me to stretch and loosen up. After the week I have had it felt so good to be back in the saddle. We spent quite a long time walking doing transitions. We then tried doing turn on the forehand and it went so well. For those of you that have been reading my blog for a while you will know that I tried doing this before but Gatsby kept backing up and me so we never successfully managed it. Well we did today he was great. Going to the right he was a bit stiffer to start with her just kept backing up. However when over exaggeratin...

A day full of different activities

Today hasn't been a long day but things tend to feel really surreal at the moment. I went to get my dress this morning and it now fits perfectly. So I have my prom dress sorted. I them went straight to school. My first lesson was textiles theory, the first half of the lessons I spent working on a past paper and the second half I saw the fashion show photos from last night. I thought insight regret not doing it but I am sure that it was the right thing to do. In my textiles I felt like I learned quote a lot and I am starting to feel more prepared for the exams that are coming up. It was then lunch time and i was supposed to do some work, then I would go to my English lessons, however much english lessons was cancelled because of moderation. So my mum came to pick me up and we went for my driving practice. I did the route that I normally do but this time I did it backwards now my mum was going to let me do the simpler route but I decided I didn't want to the only down side t...

Ball make up sorted and quality time with my best friend who is practically family.

Well I finally got round to putting the pictures up that I've wanted to put up for the last few days. Today's been a day full of activities including woke up quite late this morning so I went as soon as I was awake to get my pink filing cabinet that is going to be for the next few years at uni. I then drove back and had a longer nap I just felt so tired and with my ears hurting I didn't get much sleep last night. My mum came back to wake me up when my sister arrived. For a while we just sat in my nans bedroom talking so that my nan knew that she had got some company and that we wanted to sit with her. After a while I gave my sister some space with my nan and Evie rang to tell me that she was just about to have a shower and then head to mine. She asked if my sister would stay until she got there and my sister agreed. We went outside when Evie got here to play football with brody. Now for those of you that know me will know that I used to play football but I haven't in s...

Day Out with friends. Driving. Sixth form.

This is just a quick blog post, I went out with Dean and sue again today and we had a really good time. As an early exams well done and getting a car present they bought me a bag that will go perfectly with my sixth form ball dress. I also had a dress fitting to do with letting my dress out that I ordered and came in the wrong side. Now all I need to figure out is how to have my hair and what to do with my nails.  I've taken my mini out everyday for the past couple of days. Changing my gears has become much smoother and my stalling has become less. We figured out that the reason that I was stalling was the fact that I wasn't putting my hand brake down fully. Once I realised this I was stalling less. I also managed Togo up a really steep hill now two days before when I tried to go up a less steep hill I stalled and my mum had to get in the drivers seat and get me up the hill. Well not this time I managed to get to the top of the hill. Fair enough it was pretty slow but the ...

Paint balling madness

Well today I went to the wildlife leisure place to go painting, the only downside to this plan was that I had to be up and out the door by 8/8:10am now for those of you that know me I am not a morning person. But I'd told my best mate that I was going and that was that.  For an hour we had to stand around waiting for everyone to get organised because there were that many of us. But once we could get going the adrenaline started the first game that we played was capture the flag. We split in to two teams that we stayed in for the rest of the day unfortunately this meant that Evie and I were going to be against each other. This really bought out the competitive side in both of us which can be either really good or really bad. We drew on the first game and then we had time switch bases and a the way through til about 2 minutes off the end of the game we were going to draw again but at the last minute the other team did manage to capture our flag, we then just chilled out for about 15...

My Sisters Birthday!

Today was my big sisters birthday, so it meant that she came over for tea in the evening, this also meant that I got to see my favourite little fella in the entire world! I Love my little nephew, I say little but he is growing really quickly at the moment. This morning I didn't have an art lesson, so washed my hair and dried it but left the majority of it looking natural, I planned to straighten it later (but I never got round to it), then I went in for textiles and English. Now for some reason I thought my laptop was fully charged so wasn't too happy to walk in to Textiles and turn my laptop on to find that it was on reserve power, so I couldn't do the work that I planned to do but then in English I got loads done. We finished the book that we have been working on and now are going to go over the historical context, as I have two weeks off for easter I have an essay to do as well as some other sheets.  This evening my sister came over, we had tea and a catch up. S...

I love my Hair!

Okay so I wanted to share with you all a couple of better pictures of my hair, the last picture wasn't the best of me or my hair and made it look a lot darker that it actually is! I originally have quite dark hair so getting a purple that will suit my hair colour and actually change to a vivid purple can be quite difficult and the last couple of times at the hair dressers its faded and not looked how I wanted it to look. This time I got my mum to do it and she will do it again before my sixth form ball. I'm so excited!  Today has been another fairly uneventful day, I wasn't in school this morning as there was no room in the conservatory and the art exam was still going on. So there was no point in me going in to sit and do nothing. So this morning I washed my hair and got it to shine and be all silky, I love it. (The pictures were taken in my Nan's room as me and my mum were helping her to do a job and then realised how bright it looked because the lighting in t...

Sixth Form Ball Dress Ordered and a relaxed day of art.

I found the ball dress, as most of you will know (if you read my post yesterday) I had seen a dress that I really liked on pinterest and when I followed the link I was gutted to find out that it was on an American site so even if I ordered it from america there is NO guarantee that it would get her (the UK) in time. So last night I started looking on the internet, after my sister had left, for a dress that was similar to the one that I'd seen online I'd seen a few that were similar but the problem was that they all had a drop waist which is really not suitable for my body shape. Today I emailed them to my mum and she agreed that none of them were 'the one' so during my textiles lesson I went back online to look for that one dress I'd looked at so many different dresses and none of them were that close to the one I'd seen there were some that were similar but nothing that close, I was scrolling through the internet page and a dress caught my eye. I was so shocke...

Sixth Form Ball and Purple Hair.

The other day when I was doing the food shopping with my mum inspiration hit me. I knew that for my sixth form ball I wanted to have my purple hair back again! I love having my coloured hair but having it done professionally was costing me £80 a time and that's a lot of money when I'm wanting to save up and I was having it done three times a week. Then last friday when I was doing the shopping I saw a do it yourself purple hair dye kit. Last night I asked my mum if I could have my hair dyed by her purple for my ball and she said yes but that we would need to try it before the time came as she's never done it before. So last night for £4 we bought one of the kits and it's worked so well, it's darker but in the light/sun it does a really nice purple and in some lights goes a pinky purple. I love it! So we've decided that a week before the ball mum will do it again (as you have to build up purple hair dye to get the best colour). We also decided that instead of on...

Just A quickie

Hey guys today has been a long day and for some reason at this moment in time I keep going in to really deep sleeps during the night, but then when I wake up in the morning and all I want to do is carry on sleeping however the good thing about me going into a deep sleep is that I don't have nightmares or any dreams at all. Which is good as it means that I am not waking up several times in the night.  Today has been fairly uneventful and I am too tired to write in detail about what happened so here is an overview. To start the day off we went and did the food shopping, then I washed my hair, which just seems to be getting brighter and brighter. It was then time for sixth form and I had to write down what Evie was having for her meals at the sixth form ball because she has decided that she is going to the ball after all. I had double English and then this evening I just went to a youth group, Evie said that she was going to give me a lift back and at 9:00 she decided that she wa...

Happy Valentines day and complications

Hey guys,   Happy Valentines day, I hope that you all had a good day. I've been trying to think of a really interesting horse post that is something different to my everyday horse posts, I wanted it to be something unique but so far I haven't been able to decide what so if there is anything that you would like to see that is different to the normal things that I blog about then please let me know!  Today hasn't been the best of days, my mum had got a hospital appointment so I said that I would go with her because I had a lesson and then I had a free, so instead of going into Art and then coming home I didn't go in to sixth form until later in the day and went to the hospital with my Mum instead. To start with when we tried to park the car we found that both of the car parks were full, so we had to wait for 15 minutes for someone to leave the car park so that we could park the car. We were then waiting for her to see the consultant, and it was a nightmare, we wa...
