2010

I know I say this every year in my New Year post but I need reminding!
Out with the old and in with the new. Bring with you the good stuff from 2010 and leave all the crap behind!

Right, now that's been said! Hey guys! Another year gone by and I've gotta say... that's flown by! What's it been like ... a week since last year! Feels like it! And what a year it's been. 10 times better than 2009, I've gotta say. I've met some amazing people that I'm soooo glad I've met. Ben Jowett for one! Thanks to Sarah :) Ben's amazing, he's been there for me when I've needed him, cheered me up when I've felt crap and helped me out in a few situations... and, he beat the record and kept me up until about half 6 in the morning I think it was! Good times! And, thanks to him I've also made some other new friends, Ant, Hayley, Laura, Rob and also got back in touch with Joe and the other Rob. Me, Joe and Rob used to hang out round at Rachel's house when we were younger. Didn't really hear from either of them, yeah okay we passed in the street and said hi occasionally but thanks to Ben, we actually have conversations with each other now and me and Joe are really good mates now as well :)

Another major thing that happened was leaving school and starting college! Yes, me in college! After being at Tibby for 5 years! That was an emotional day. I had to leave Lalys, Liv, Nicole, Natalie and Megs! behind after being mates with them all for 5 years ... all the memories! We had an amazing time at Tibby and I wouldn't change a thing. Better to have loved and lost than not loved at all and I loved all of my friends at Tibby! and hopefully they loved me too.

Of course to have left Tibby that means that I had to do my GCSEs... want to know what I got? .. ahh of course you do!
Art and design- C
Religious studies- C
ALAN test- B
Media studies- B
Maths- B
Science- B
Additional science- B
English- C
English lit- A
French- B
Religious Studies (world religion) - A
So... 3 Cs, 6 Bs and 2 As ... Yeah I'm happy with that!

And, thanks to the teachers of Tibshelf school and for me actually doing well in my exams, I got into Chesterfield College and I'm now doing an Extended Diploma in Media, sounds fancy eh! I'm really enjoying it. I got to a stage where I was drowning in the paper work, because it's a BTEC course, it's all coursework and no exams so we have homework everyday and I was finding it hard to cope so I was thinking of quitting. But! I have no back up plan so I saw sense and stayed and now I'm the director of an opening sequence to a crime thriller! I've got my own team and everything, love it! I've met some amazing people on my course as well, got back into contact with Brandon as well who I only saw once for a day and hadn't seen since until I started my course! how weird's that! But yeah, I love our group, everyone is just so lovely and we're all just like a family and we all get along which is great.

(I've got loads to say this year! I've barely written anything for the reviews of the past years!)
What else can I say... oh! I've got another cousin :) ... Oscar Stockdale and he's absolutely gorgeous! No kidding! He's just over a month old, he's adorable.
Right, I'm gonna leave it there, think I've said enough! It's been a great year though, loved it. Now let's see what 2011 brings! :)
