2011.10.07 - Halcyon Dreams.

But I have two days left to relax but I go back into the rat race of work...

Now though I'm just gonna chill and try to make the most of the next two days.
PEACE!

2011.10.01 - Bliss.

Hello everyone!!
And yes, as you can see from the title of this post, I am now off work for a WHOLE WEEK!!!!! Yey ^^
I think i deserve more than a week off work... -_- but, hey :D a week of is certainly a good thing! I'm not gonna complain!
In fact, I'm going on vacation! Bonus ;)
However, i'm not going anywhere particularly exotic. Just somewhere i can blow off a bit of steam and let go.
I'm going with my grandparents to a lodge cabin that they hired. I've seen the pictures and it looks very nice! We're not going far, we're staying in the same county but it's a lodge in the forest which i find quite nice! It'll be an adventure!! :3
Today i had the strangest shift ever. 11:00 - 15:00.
"WHAT?!?!", you might say. "What's the point in THAT?!" And to that I must say... I agree with you. O_o
Hardly any point of working just for four hours really is there? Well, I suppose there is but... still. Just suppose I had to get the train to work and lets also say that it costs approximately £5 one way, thats £10 return. On a four hour shift i would earn £20. By the time i've bought a train ticket i'd only be working for £10...
Pointless? I think so.
But, hey, i'm babbling now...
Today, 1st October 2011, is said to be the hottest recorded October day in the UK! And at this moment in time I'm wiping my forehead with the back of my hand -_- I must say, i do love the warm weather but this is just CRAZY!!!
Oh, but i wouldn't might nice weather for next week ;) *Cannot make her mind up at all...*
It feels even hotter in this room now because the neighbours behind us have cut down the trees that surrounded their house and the back of our garden so the sun is now beating down on me and my brothers room :[ I hope i'll be able to sleep tonight! I can never sleep when it's so HOT!!! D:
Many of my friends, as I said in the last post, have gone to university. I miss a lot of them :( I haven't spoken to most of them in a while. I wonder how they are getting on. University life must be so difficult. You have to juggle your academic work with your finances. :/ *Not looking forward to it!!!* Hahaha no! I actually am really looking forward to studying at university. I look forward to reaching that point in my life. It marks the point at which you become a REAL adult, in the big wide world... *Kind of daunting now... MOVING ON!!*
Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the beautiful weather!
Have fun!
'Til next time!

I LOVE being tired... LOL jk. ¬_¬
I hate working longggg shifts! They not only dragg on and on and on but they make you feel like a zombie and then everything that goes wrong on your shift actually feels a zillion times worse than it actually is....
Anyway, hi!!! :D
It's been a few days since i've posted, i know, but I like to give it a few days between posts because then I have more to say... aha... ^ ^;;
I have only five months left of my gap year and I'm already at wits end!! :L
I just want to start my degree. I don't mind having a break from education though. It's nice to know that I'm not constantly going to school all the time... 9 'til 5. That would be incredibly BORING!
However, so many people have gone to college and uni and now... i'm alone. Eek... -_-; Kind of awkward. And, i mean, I like the people that i work with but... they don't really like me. Or, at least, i get the impression that they do kind of like me but there is too much of a difference between lifestyles. All my workmates love getting drunk every night and partying until 5am, then staring work at 9am... I would rather sit inside, read manga, watch a few Smosh videos or Bad Lip reading videos on YouTube and maybe watch a few episodes of Star Trek: Voyager. Yeah... My idea of a good night is slightly different to theirs. It's not that I don't know how to have a good time. I love going out for meals and going out to the cinema or the theatre but... I have had very bad experiences when I've been drunk. In fact, lets not go there right now...

¬_¬...

Yep... and It's so awkward when people at work ask me if i'll be going out to the pub with them. I mean, I don't mean to be rude because it's not like I hate them but... I just don't wanna be stuck in the compromising position of having to decide whether to go to a nightclub or not. I'm also a Christian so at least that a protection (or at least an excuse...)

Anyway I'm rambling!!
'Til next time.

2011.08.29 - The beginning.

OK, well hi.
And welcome to 'These Broken Wings'. My new blog!
*Celebrate*
Oh, you may call me by my penname Emily.

OK so why, you might ask, has some random eighteen-year-old girl decided to create a blog?
Well, to that i have to say... i have absolutely NO clue. -_-
In fact i did own a few blogs in the past but, alas, never found time to update. But since my time is filled either by working or watching cartoon re-runs (and reading a truck load of manga and watching anime 'til my eyes bleed...) I thought it might be worth my while to type up some of the crap plan to do but never get round to it. I thought 'Hey, someone might actually be interested in my opinion. Someone might actually GIVE a flying--

I'm babbling, i know...

OK so... about me? Well, i somehow survived the wrath of A levels (not to mention my head of sixth form... Did i mention that she had a huge stick up her a** which almost forced me to punch her in the face... lucky she survived...) And now i'm alive to record details of my everyday life, Gap year and university. Or, at least, from my perspective.

I may not be able to type everyday but i certainly hope to!! ^_^

Hope you can stick around. It'll be fun ;P
