Just a short blog today as I am very busy as I am about to explain.
Today is my first deadline and I am currently still writing it, I am still only just half way through it and am still confused about what it is I am actually supposed to be doing, great really isn't it? At least I have till midnight to complete it so that's a positive but I have never been so worried about submitting a piece of work in my life, I genuinely am so confused about what to include etc so thinking it wont be my best mark yet btu as long as I pass I have a chance to make it up with the MCQ and the final exam.
So yer that's about all I have to say for now as I really should be cracking on with it but jsut a quick word of wisdom from someone who is struggling, don't leave essays until the last min, it doesn't work and I know people wont listen to me, I didn't when people told me last year and I probably wont change now but really don't leave it till the last min it just causes stress and worry!
So on I go to try and get this done, wish me luck and prey the marker is nice to me

Night on the tiles
Evening all,
So it's the end of the weekend so time for another catch up. This week was fairly short with me only being in Oxford for 3 nights, the first night I went to the pub with a girl from the RAG society and ended up staying until 11 eating cheesy chips and drinking cocktails which was nice, Tuesday 2 of my aunties came to take me out for dinner, we went for drinks before and then to Browns for a lovely meal and was so nice to see them both, hopefully they can come see me again soon, and then on Wednesday me and Laura went out to the cinema to see The Perks Of Being A Wall Flower which was a lot better than I had expected and would recommend any girls who like girlyiss movies (or guy who like them for that matter). Then we planned to go have a quiet drink so found a nice little bar but 2mins after ordering the waiter came over and said we had to leave as the ceiling was leaking and may fall down! So we drank as quickly as possible and headed to McDonalds for a cheeky bite to eat then back home again. The next day I came back home so all in all not very long spent in Oxford so can't complain too much.
This weekend has been nice, spent Thursday evening with mummy and then Friday just relaxing with mum again. Yesterday I had a really nice day, Becky came over for the afternoon so a lot of talking was done and a small bit of shopping before she left and I started preparations for my night out :) Now here it is quite lengthy but I can't be bothered to go into it all so long story short I haven't been out clubbing with Nick very many times so i was really excited but slightly nervous to be going with him as I knew he would be wanting to spend time with the guys and expect me to hang out with the girls (1 of whome I have met once and the other I haven't ever met). So we got to his friends house for pre drinks and I was a bit shy but after a couple of drinks I started chatting to the girls a little more and on the train journey into Reading we got talking a lot more and actually got on really well so once we were in the club and had found our VIP table off we went to dance and wasn't a problem not having Nick around. Was really nice though he would appear every so often and give me a cuddle and stay and dance with us for a bit before going back to his boys again or come get me a drink. All in all was one of the best nights out I have had, got a McDonalds before taxi back to Nicks. Going to have to go now get him as he is coming to stay tonight, I have an essay in for Tuesday that I am no where near finished and don't really understand the question so that's not exactly brilliant.
Mum is off to Tanzania on Tuesday so going to miss her a lot but on the plus side once she is back then it isn't long until we break up for Christmas which I am super excited about haha
Anyway bye bloggers

Weekly catch up time as I am useless!
I have realised I don't really blog when I am in Oxford, not sure why just don't have the motivation to do it. So it's Friday and I have the whole of the past 2 weeks to catch you up on, but don't worry I wont bore you with it all, forget the week before this, that was so long ago I don't even remember what I did.
Last weekend was a very different one to normal. As you may have noticed I have been coming home from uni at weekends, but last weekend was different. After a lot of stress and worry (won't go into that) Nick texted me to tell me he was on the train to Oxford so off I drove to pick him up from the station and for the first time ever I got to the station early! This meant I was able to park my car and go inside so could give him a cuddle as he arrived. We drove my car back to the new parking space I have rented near my house, parked it and got a bus back into town to do some shopping. I didn't get anything but Nick got the nicest new chinos, a tshirt and a cardigan that I found and looked so good on him, so he bought them all (only later to leave the whole bag on the train home again, stupid boy). We went back to my house, he got the grand tour and we fell asleep for hours!!!!! Finally waking up at 8pm realising we still needed to eat so decided to go get a KFC variety bucket (meant for people) and did a very good job of eating it all.
Next day we had a little bit of a lie in before packing up and driving back to the station where we had some lunch while waiting for his train and he bought me the most beautiful bunch of flowers. Nick got on the train and I got in my car and started the long journey up to Sheffield to stay with George for the rest of the weekend. I got a little stuck in traffic and had to stop at a service station a couple of hours into the drive but I think it only took about 3 hours in total and was so lovely to see Goerge once I arrived who was still hobbling a little bit after having 2 lumber punctures in hospital (luckily she was walking normally again by the time I left on Monday ). When I arrived I got a tour of their very confusing house and we just sat and chatted for a while before deciding to get Dominos for dinner. Being a Saturday it was Xfactor on so we went down into the kitchen to watch it and ate ice cream and had face masks then played pictionary until about 1am. Then deciding it was quite late we headed to bed and chatted a bit more before going to bed. The next day passed very quickly as we didn't actually get out of bed until 4pm, ordered an Indian takeaway (yes 3rd takeway in a row) and heading to church. Now I am not usually a church goer but with how down I have been feeling lately I thought it would be nice to go along with George and see how I found it. It was so lovely, I even cried at one point and left feeling like the world was actually full of nice people for once. After church we went to the pub until deciding to go home. The next day was my last day in Sheffield, we woke up and walked over to Helena's apartment which is AMAZING I want to live there, we chatted and everything before deciding to head into town and do some shopping, I decided I needed the loo before going to went in and when I tried to get out of the loo the door woudn't open!!!!! I was stuck, HELP! After about 15mins of George and Helena telling me to stay calm and twisting the door handle back and forward I was convinced I was going to die in the toilet or the firemen would have to come save me, in reality George kicked the door in and I was finally free. After this stressfull ordeal we headed into town where I got 2 new hats (a woolly bobble hat and a snap back :D I am a gangsta now) and a new Iphone case to replace my old broken one. We had a McDonalds (yes 4th takeway) and went back to Georges. By this time it was about 5pm and I knew if I didn't leave soon it would be too late to drive back so I said my goodbyes and started the drive. I eventually got back about 4 hours later due to getting stuck in rush hour traffic etc,
So that was my eventful weekend, now onto the week. I got back to Oxford Monday, had a full day of lecturers Tuesday and then Roz came over in the evening, I cooked us curry and we watched the final of the Great British Bake Off with a couple of drinks before heading to the pub for another drink. Was so nice to see her and I hope we can do more things like that. Wednesday I had morning lectures and then in the evening watched Matilda with Laura and then yesterday was Thursday. In my lecture we had to dissect a horse uterus and horse penis! Was quite gross but interesting and of course we made the only boy in the class dissect the penis. Once the dissecting was over I went back home and wrote up some of my notes and packed up the car and off I drove home (via the SU for an hour to go to retro gaming society, which in normal peoples words is a lot of geeks sitting around playing Mario Kart haha). Now here I am back home and happy :)
I have to go get ready to go to the opticians now to see if the scratch on my eye has healed itself so fingers crossed. Will blog again at some point this weekend but just so happy to be home after being away for nearly 2 weeks!

No longer a teenager
Happy Sunday bloggers.
So I am back home yet again haha (not doing a very good job of staying at uni at the moment but there doesn't seem much point when everything I need is at home). So anyway, I had an excuse this weekend to come home, MY 20TH BIRTHDAY! Yes you heard right I am no longer a teenager but a fully fledged 20 year old! So I came home on Friday as usual after having my birthday night out in Oxford on Thursday which was actually pretty good as my friends from last year came and so I didn't end up alone as usual. On my birthday yesterday I woke up, had my cards that had arrived and got money etc from aunties and granny (bought a new sat nav with it as someone went into my car in Oxford which I left unlocked by mistake stupid me, and stole it). I didn't have presents until the afternoon once mummy had collected granny and I had got Nick. From mum and granny I got a digital flat screen TV with built in DVD player to have in my room at uni, from daddy I got a necklace with a pink heart shaped crystal and he is either paying to get my camera fixed or buying me a new camera, will just have to wait for that a while as he is away. I was so worried about Nick's present to me as I hadn't given him any ideas and was super worried he would get me something I hate and would have to pretend to like it. But he bought me the most beautiful bracelet from Tiffany's (have put a photo of it bellow) so all in all I feel like a very lucky and spoilt girl. In the evening the 4 of us went to Peacock Farm which is a sort of posh pub style food place, Everyone else was doubtful that it would be nice but I thought it looked lovely and I was right. The food was really nice we had a mezze platter to share to start with all sorts of breads and things, then me and granny both had a chicken with BBQ sauce thing and chips,Nick had fish and chips and mummy had a steak pie, all were lovely then had mini desert of lemon cheesecake thing. Was so nice and relaxed and wish daddy had been there but had most of my favourite people. Then came back and watched xfactor.
Today Nick went back to uni :( I don't go until tomorrow but he is coming up to see me on Friday and then I am off to Sheffield to see George and Helena on Saturday. Hopefully the week goes quickly as I have a lot of work to do and a riding lesson on Thursday.

6 months! How am I going to do this
Right know I really don't know how I am going to make it through 6 months of this! I am so unhappy. Daddy said i should get a job to give me something to do, I think he is right but I don't know what to do? I just need some guidance and help. I really don't think university is for me, I realised this last year but am too stubborn to give up and hear I am unhappy yet again. Still, only 6 more months till I am done with my second year and can finally move back home where I can be happy. Tomorrow I might be going to the riding social where I don't know anyone but hopefully can meet some of them and maybe give me something to keep me busy. Then on Thursday it is mine (not really I know the other girl will take it over) Birthday night out, finally get to see Roz again which should be good. Then home time :D I just don't understand how the whole country seems to love uni yet for me it is hell!
I need to snap out of this, so many people have far worse lives and all I have to complain about is that I don't enjoy uni, it's selfish I know but I just feel so unhappy, I can only hope it gets better. I am trying so hard in everything I do and starting riding again next week so hope that goes well.
Am going to stop writing now before I get any more irritating.
Don't know what I would do without my friends at home and everything, your the only things getting me through this so thank you.

Year 2 begins
Sorry I haven't blogged in a while but have moved back to Oxford and don't have internet yet (hopefully we will on Tuesday but not hopeful). Anyway, it's been an odd week and a bit, settling into my new house is harder than I expected, the house is amazing, it has been totally done up and everything is new so that's great but it just doesn't feel like home yet, I think I need to get a few more bits and pieces for my bedroom as it's really big and still feels quite empty, and there is some plaster on the wall that needs painting, but that wont be done for about a month, sure once all these things are done it will feel more like home. The girls are so lovely and I think I am bonding with them a little bit more each day it's just quite tough moving into a house with an already very tightly formed friendship group. Everyone keeps telling me and I know they are right, that I just need to give it time.
So I moved in on the 20th (Thursday) and it's now the 1st October :D (so happy September is over, personally September hasn't been a good month for me in previous years so to have got it over with without a hitch this year has made me very happy and my superstition has gone). Anyway, it's now Monday and I have been at home since Friday (I had to come home to look after Bruno Saturday but decided to stay a little longer) I hope that having been home for a little bit will make me feel slightly happier in Oxford, I have lots too look forward to as I have joined the dance society again in order to to fitness and have also joined the riding society :D I went to the welcome meeting on Thursday and was so happy everyone seemed lovely and met a few people who seem to be a similar level to me so hopefully we will start riding next week (for only £13.50!!!!).
Lectures have been ok, nothing special and I still need to write up my notes as I am trying to actually do work this year so I do better than last year, this is a lot harder than you think though so I will do my best.
This weekend has been lovely, I came home Friday and suddenly got a text from Nick saying he wasn't going to Portsmouth for the night any more but was staying in Kingston for the night to go to the gym etc so I started writing up some of my lecture notes (which I really should be doing now) when I got a second text saying 'want to come over? I am home. Surprise!' He was home early ! So off I went and got a few extra hours with him in which we drove to Farnham to collect his football kit etc and got time to talk and just relax as I hadn't seen him in 8 days! This is the longest we have gone in about 6 months, it felt like a lifetime so getting some extra time was amazing. I came home Friday evening and had dinner with mummy, she cooked me such a lovely meal of steak etc and bought all my favourite foods from Tesco then we spent the evening watching TV.
Saturday morning mummy left to take granny shopping in Portsmouth for the day and then staying over night there, leaving me in charge of Bruno. I just chilled in the day, walked Bruno a bit and then at about 7 went to pick up Nick and brought him back to mine. We watched Dr Who and then ordered a Chinese takeaway and continued to watch a lot of TV. At about 10 I started to feel a bit like I had a cold and it gradually got worse through the night, yesterday I didn't feel good at all but I took it easy, Nick went back to uni and I feel a bit better this morning.
I think this is all I have to say for now and as soon as I next have internet I will write again but I don't know when it will be so sorry.
10 months with Nick today <3
It's my birthday this week! I will be 20 on Saturday :D
