It's about time I updated my journal with some stuff.

Lately I've been busy helping my parents with the house stuff. I'm still looking for a job and waiting to hear form Sussex university about my PGCE application.

( My sixth Year Anniversary and Ice Skating )

I look forward to your review of Mabel Stark.

All the things you're doing lately make you sound so sporty and active! ^_^ Even if you aren't very good at the sports, at least you're out there working on them.

Good luck with the car!

I look forward to discussing the book, too :D

I'm doing some exercise but not as much as I'd like. Still, it's tons more than I used to do and it feels great. I have to make the most of a young body! This summer I plan to learn diving.

I just came back from the sea front promenade because I decided to take my skates out today, I just couldn't wait :P I'm so worn out! It was great though. I took my minidisc player with me and I skated until I couldn't almost move. It's coming back pretty swiftly *happy, happy*

I think my mum went to see the car today and if she's happy with it I reckon she'll go ahead and buy it. Can't wait! I failed my first test because I made a mistake whilst reverse parking. I was very nervous and it was the first thing they asked me to do right after getting in the car O.o I went driving afterwards, including on the fast bypass, and I could have passed if it wasn't for the damn reverse parking. My next test is in a few weeks. I hope I can pass it this time :D

Good luck with the driving test, then! Have you been practicing "reverse parking" a lot? Hopefully, you won't be as nervous now that you know what to expect. :D

Really, really? *puppy eyes* It's looong - almost 30 pages in 12 pt Courier font. If you are up for it, though, I'll send it your way. I admit I'm a little scared, but I'll get over it XD By the way, it's a one-shot lemon dripping with sentimentality and sappiness. Still interested?

No, it doesn't really work if it's split up :D I didn't want a detailed line-by-line concrit, just a general idea. To be honest, I only wanted someone to tell me if they understood the story because I do a strange thing half way through and Aja was totally lost... she read something different from what I'd intended to communicate! I've sent it to Dave already, though, so you don't have to read it. Actually, I'm very nervous about the story and I'm sort of hiding it.

I'm a little embarrased as it is for showing something disastrous to people whose writing I admire, so if Dave is confused by it, too, I might not even post it. I don't know, we'll see.

((Blushes)) That's weird seeing my picture up on yoru LJ. I feel special. Haha, thank you. :)

patosan April 30 2006, 10:53:59 UTC

It's a great picture! I'm the one who's thankful :P

NO! People can't be confused with your writing! ^_^ People get confused with my writing all the time. usually, it'st he poetry stuff. They look at me like I'm a freak. "What the hell does that mean? Those adjectives contradict eachother!!" Gah! You know, I can always glance at your stuff for you as well. What ever happened to that Naruto fic I was going to beta for you?

It's good to see that you are having fun. You're being SO much more active than me. I can't rollerskate. I fall on my ass like crazy. I can just imagine ice skating. O_O Sounds like it was a great Anniversary!

patosan April 30 2006, 10:57:46 UTC

It was great fun! I'm enjoying outdoors activities a lot recently. It's such a great feeling to get away from the computer. I'd been living my life too deoendant on it and I thought "enough is enough". I used to be an active person and then at university I sat on my ass for four years. I regret it now. I should have lived my university experience differently *sigh*

Hahaha, that Naruto fic is still lying dormant in my pc. Maybe one day, maybe... XD

Driving! I like driving. Heehee. And what a communte I have, man. I'm so jealous of European countries and their *gasp* public transportation systems. What? Busses? Trains? Subways? SURELY YOU JEST!!!

There are no busses from my city to Richmond, the capitol of my state, and where I go to school. Bah. Well, there's a bus that goes from downtown Petersburg (where I live) to a hospital in Richmond, but the hospital is noooowhere near where I need to be, so I'd have to figure some really complicated schedule out, and it's just too insane. Not ot mention no busses after a certain time, which would curtail my Kung Fu rather a lot. o_O

Anyway. Major rambles! Sorry I've sucked at commenting lately. <33333

patosan April 30 2006, 11:01:58 UTC

No worries, I've sucked at commenting lately as well so, even stevens?

Public transport in England is extortionate and unreliable compared to the rest of Europe, but I won't go into that debate. I want to keep my good vibes about me today ^__^ At least we have a wide choice of services that can be trusted to work most of the time, even if it means coughing up ridiculuos amounts of money for it (it can be cheaper to travel to Europe by plane than it can be to get a train to the north of England O.o)

rocknlobster April 30 2006, 11:30:39 UTC

Woooah. Crazy-expensive, eh? That's too bad. :(
