Happy New Year to my lovely readers and Happy Birthday to me! I'm feeling incredibly lucky at the moment because I've got money to spend on a new iPod touch and a prom dress, plus some amazing presents from the girls. I realise I sound spoiled but I've never had this amount of money and cool stuff before so a massive thank you to my family and friends in in order!
There's only 5 hours left of 2012 as I'm writing this, which feels strange as it's all been a bit of a blur. So much has happened this year and I know this sounds cringingly cheesy but I really do feel like I've grown as a person and I've gone on a mini voyage of self-discovery in a way. I haven't had the chance to be as creative as I'd like this year so my new year's resolution is to take some time out for myself, mainly to further my creative writing skills and to stop myself moaning on here that I feel like an exam robot. I know that 2013 will be even more stressful than 2012 in terms of exams but I'm really looking forward to September when I start college/sixth form purely because it's a new start.
Anyway, enough of the deep thinking, yesterday I went to see The Hobbit with Ella, Sasha and Emily for my birthday. I have to say I was a little unsure at first but it got better and better and the riddle scene with Golumn and Bilbo really impressed me, it was the perfect mix of humour and suspense. Afterwards we went to Maccy D's for a catch-up even though we only saw each other a week ago!
I've been thinking how much the BBC has killed me this year...first the Reichenbach Fall then Rory and Amy leaving Doctor Who and then Merlin ending. Seriously.
Also thank you to everyone who has left me birthday messages on Twitter, you are the best! :-)

Forget Christmas...it's my bloggiversary!
Hello all! The 21st was (what I call) my bloggiversary- the one year anniversary of my lovely blog! I've written a grand total of 64 posts and I think all of them have actually been read by at least one real person rather than some kind of spam bot, which is great! Thank you if you are one of those people :-)
Christmas is in under 3 days now, which is pretty scary, this year has been a blur! I'm a bit disappointed with the weather as it's too warm to snow so instead it's been raining non-stop all day and it just doesn't look festive at all. But there's still presents and food so it's all gooood.
Speaking of presents, the girls got me some brilliant stuff including a huge box of Milk Tray, a Deathly Hallows symbol necklace and transferable Dark Mark tattoo, lip crayons, jewellery and a Doctor Who book! It's my birthday on New Year's Eve and we're going to see The Hobbit so I'm looking forward to that (and more presents of course!)
Last weekend I went to York with my mum and auntie (who have decided to have a massive argument just before Christmas and make Christmas dinner extremely awkward) and I got a new Cath Kidston bag, it's so purty! It's dark red with little beige polka dots :-)
I can't think of much else to say except from have a wonderful Christmas and don't hold back on the food and drink!!

Christmas, History and the Royal Baby.
Happy December- less than a month until Christmas! This morning I realised how fast this year has gone- it's almost a year since my first post on this blog! CUTE.
There is still a lot to do though- in a weeks time I have a History mock and a Geography mock. I started to revise for History on Saturday morning but I was constantly being distracted because Time Team's Greatest Finds was on TV and they found a really well-preserved Anglo-Saxon golden coin and it was so shiny and I just couldn't deal with the excitement. Plus my sister was sat upstairs watching Miranda and I was jealous. I've managed to create a mindmap of the first few topics we covered with key points which will hopefully jog my memory...hopefully.
My sister and I have put the little Christmas tree up and our room and we've hung some really cute ribbon with little stockings on it in the window, we have a red-themed room anyway so it looks extra festive! The big tree in the living room is going up tomorrow too, I can't wait! It makes the room look so cosy with all the
lights, I love it.
I found out today that I got an A* in the mock English exam that I thought I'd failed, but I just wish that could have been the real exam. The grade boundaries were super strange- the paper was out of 80 but you only needed 61 to get an A*- very weird! Knowing me, I'll probably fall to pieces when it comes to the real thing.
Also-congratulations to Kate and William- that child will be the best looking child ever to grace this Earth. I'm hoping it's a girl purely to make use of this new law. Also- do we get a bank holiday? *pleasepleaseplease* I've just heard about the receptionist who forwarded the hoax call to Kate's bedside- sometimes mistakes like that can be the final straw for people who are already depressed. So sad.
Band discovery of the week- The xx. Wow. Angels is beautiful.
