Time may change me, but I can't change time

I was watching Shrek 2 today at about 12 o'clock (which by the way I think is a wonderfully lazy thing to do, it's very satisfying once in a while!) and one of the songs from the soundtrack speaks a lot of truth. "Time may change me, but I can't change time." This is proving extremely relevant at the moment as everything seems to be changing ridiculously quickly and entirely out of my control!

On the 18th of June, I will have finished my GCSEs, my five years at secondary school will be over forever and for the first time since I can remember, I will be entirely free to do as I please (at least for a couple of months). Although this seems like such a happy idea, it's very scary too.



I'm the kind of person that functions very well in a structured lifestyle, so being free is going to be a daunting prospect to begin with! It's not all bad though, being on half term at the moment, I have had a taste of this freedom and with the amazing friends that I have I know it's going to be a lot of fun.

What a confusing time, can't decide if I'm happy or sad that things are changing so much but I know that they have to so I guess it's just a matter of acceptance!

Let's share a moment of wooping for joy

Well, my frequent blogging didn't last long, did it!?
Oh well, to be quite honest, I got very grumpy after that last post and I don't like putting depressing things up - just doesn't seem productive really. Then, I got tonsillitis, so spent lots of time in bed and eating Heinz tomato soup with toast, which really is very very nice :)

Anyway, let's just say I'm feeling a lot better now. English Literature exam was today, and although it wasn't amazing, IT'S OVER! So let's just share a moment of wooping for joy shall we?

Okay, that's done. Chemistry exam tomorrow which is not so brilliant. I am writing this now rather than re-capping, which probably is not constructive, so I shall leave this post unfinished until my chemistry is over forever. Which, is not too long from now.

Goodbye (to all of the people that read this, which I think consists of, well, me!)

So far, so good

Well, I've successfully managed to keep up blogging for a grand total of, wait for it... two days now! How wonderful.

Now I'm feeling pretty grumpy right now, just received an email from my teacher telling me that, although I went in a whole hour early to do a past paper, she can't find it and 'would I mind doing it again?' Well quite frankly, the answer to that is yes of course I flipping mind doing it again, I was pretty happy with how it turned out and now that you've lost it I've lost the will to try it again! However, I'm sure when I see her tomorrow I'll smile and say "Oh, that's alright, yes I'll do it again if I can find the time."

Gargh, what is it with trying to please everyone all the time!?

Oh well, today hasn't been all bad. The sun has been shining and I've spent it with a wonderful friend baking a cake. I'm trying to keep the optimism levels up, exams and stress are getting me down rather too much I think.



So, happy thought for the day: No matter what decisions we make, everything will always turn out the way it's meant to be, so try to enjoy everything while it lasts!

I'm just going to keep thinking about going to Turkey in the summer where I'm able to see such beautiful sights as this.

Anyway, this probably isn't the best time to be blogging - I'm in a pretty foul mood haha. Oh well, I'll try again tomorrow, it's a new day and will hopefully be better!

With these empty building blocks I could make a thousand me's

Well, hello.
I've decided to make a blog as a bit of a distraction from the ridiculous amounts of revision that I should be doing for my upcoming GCSEs, because I've read lots of blogs and really enjoyed them and in a kind of strive to become a more interesting person.

If I'm honest, I don't really expect anyone to stumble across this and read it - and, if they do, I doubt that they'll be 'hooked' exactly.

So, just on the slight probability that anyone does read this, here's a little bit about me. I'm a sixteen year old girl living in Bristol. I would probably regard myself as a bit of a geek - I see most results below an A as a personal failure, which is bad, I know. I'm an only child (or as I like to put it, a 'lonely child'), and I live in a house which I absolutely adore with my parents and four cats. Yes, four cats, which is utterly ridiculous and I constantly find everything I own covered in cat hair, even though I don't allow them into my room.

I have a pretty fabulous group of friends, but I often find myself feeling like I don't quite live up to their standards. For a start, they are all gorgeous looking - some of them could quite easily be models and they're the kind of people that you'd love to hate, except they all seem to have perfect personalities as well. Goodness me! However, before this first post turns into a book, I'll stop about that and talk about it in a future post (if this blogging thing works out for me!)

Anyway, what else to explain - there's obviously quite a lot, but I'll leave that concealed for now. I'm in a 'must-find-something-to-do-other-than-revise-because-I-really-don't-want-to-but-know-that-I-should-because-if-I-don't-I'll-get-annoyed-at-myself' mood. Oh well, I think we can safely say what route I opted for.

Oh and finally, I think I should say the reason for the title of the post and the name of the blog. Name being 'Everyone knows best' and the title of the post being 'With these empty building blocks I would make a thousand me's'. Well, in short, I've been listening to Charlie Winston who a friend of mine told me about and I really like his music. There's a video on Youtube to his song I Love Your Smile and I would love to be Audrey Tatou riding around France on one of those beautiful looking bicycles right now!I also think they lyrics are beautiful and, unable to think of anything else, I copped out a little and thought I'd use them. Will try and be more imaginitave next time!

That's all for now! I shall try and be more interesting next time!
