I PASSED!! My first year of uni :D ahhh I'm so relieved!! And actually did better than expected in this semester's exams... despite the lack of revision and falling asleep in one of them :P I'm hoping next year in a house i'll be able to do proper work and actually get things done.
Havent done anything recently at all. After uni and being around people 24/7 i'm not feeling all that sociable... a lot of my friend's are not back anyway so i've just been working. Made over £100 already in the shop I work. Toronto in 10 days!!!
God I cant believe how long it's been... When I'm not busy I'm watching episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians on my laptop so never seem to have time to post.
Toronto was amazing, I bought so much!! Probably way too much. But there were sales in Abercrombie and the stuff in the London Store is a complete rip off! (they just change the dollar sign to a pound sign, so you pay like £50 for a shirt...) And also I went into the VS Pink store :) and then bought a lovely leather handbag from Nine West which was like $100 off! It was the G20 summit when we went so when we arrived it was empty apart from Police men... kinda creepy, like a ghost town... but then the second day there were loads of riots and police cars were set on fire and shop windows were smashed, right down the road from our hotel! And there were lock ins too at the shopping centre. We saw the National Ballet of Canada and then the musical Jersey Boys and went up the CN Tower and also to Niagara Falls which were AMAZING!
Since i've been back I went to a really fun house party and been working. I'm looking after little twins every day, it's so exhausting!
I love that picture, Annie. It sounds like you're having an awesome + busy summer! Canada must've been so much fun, but I'm a little confused-- what's going on in Canada with riots and all that? I don't know anything about it! I've never been to Niagra Falls, so jealous.
It was the G20 summit, like the G8, you know things like the one in Rio? (perhaps i only know that from geog)... errrrm maybe google it? I dont know how to explain. But all the important people like Obama and the new PM in england Cameron was there and it was like a big discussion/conference type thing.
It's been over a month since my last entry... Since then I started my new job as a child minder... It's horrific!!! I've never met kids who scream for hours over the littlest, stupidest things. Also had a few really good nights out - full moon party - basically just dressing up in beach wear and fluorescent paint :) Town a few times... lots of beaching, boating and BBQs...
Then I went to Spain for two weeks to my favouritest place ever :D nights out ended with 6am swims in the pool and days filled with cloudless heat

Caro, I dont think I can really say on here for everyone to read :/ just i cant even talk to any of my friends at home about it :(
2.9.10 entry 26.
I cant believe how fast time goes, I've been home from uni 3 months... it feels like it's gone quickly but then in other ways it feels like it was so long ago I was at uni... I'm sorting out stuff on my old laptop i should have done before i went away. I've been finding old videos and pictures and it's making me really nostalgic. Of course i love uni and being away but also in a strange way I miss being younger and going to school. I cant believe how different I look either, crazy to think what 20lbs does to you. Sadly i havnt lost all the uni weight i wanted to. Only 5lbs of it... I dont want to grow up and in 2 years time i'm going to be out in the real world...
Had a really good night a couple of weekends ago... at first. We got into the club free and normally I dont have that much fun there but this time it was great, and a hot guy talked to me! haha. Was meant to be staying at a friends then a guy she knew just turned up in a taxi with his friends and we went there, that's when it all went wrong...
Then i've moved my stuff into my new uni house, will be off there in about 3 weeks .. excited :D
