Feel Good Inc

Yesterday was a good day, my mum was really happy with her gifts; she started crying when I gave her the moonpig card and says she is going to frame it. The rest of the day was pretty good too, if played pokemon with my siblings for a while, and like the nice big sister I am, took my sister to a party across the road and made a cake. Saying it like that makes it sound like it was easy - yeah, not so much. After using completely the wrong kind of butter and the wrong recipe, my mum helped me to make it, it only took like 10 minutes and I iced it all up when we got back from church in the evening. My friend for whom it was for loved it when I showed her it this morning, I shall be looking forward to lunch time all day, because it just looks so delicious, also we get to embarrass her by singing happy birthday with all the other people in the canteen staring. I forgot to write her card however which is sitting at the bottom of my bag, but I can't really write it now while she's sitting next to me.

 At the moment (in the larger sense, I don't mean right this second) I'm reading a book by Terry Pratchett called Feet of Clay, not the first Discworld novel I have read, my ex boyfriend I remember had an obsession with Terry Pratchett and I ended up reading some of the others then too, after watching the BBC representation of Going Postal with him, I then read the novel and it's sequel - Making Money I've found it hard to get my nose into a book recently and I was in my school library and one caught my eye, so I took out Feet of Clay and Making Magic to read once I’ve finished it, after which I shall take out some more until I’ve read all the ones in the school library. Its great being into a book again, I would be reading it now only I forgot to bring it with me to school this morning so it's sitting on my desk with my pencil case. Oops...

 I'm in a free period at school (yet, again). I should really be working on the film studies essay I have due for tomorrow, but I ended up on here. Oops... Still, I have two frees after this so I have plenty of time this morning, and can carry on working on it when I get home tonight - I have nothing better to do after all. I’m really rather bored today, and yes I know theres plenty of homework I could be getting on with but I really just haven’t got that kind of drive today... God help me when i actually get into a lesson. Just sitting here in my free looking at stuff on ebay and trying to work out if my friend IS actually listening to Feel good inc - Gorrilaz or it's just my imagination

Looking on eBay for catsuit, not as sexual as it sounds though my dears before you get all excited, i'm making a batgirl costume to wear to conventions. It is turning out to be more expensive then i thought it would, at least i have someone to help me make all the middley bits, but he's still charging £40 just for my belt... I guess that's what you have to do to make a costume that will be accepted by an established costuming group (well, both of the ones i' a part of, not that i've met up with either of them in a long time and probably won't until London Film and Comic Con... Still i've got a convention soon, but the outfit won't be finnished by then so it looks like i'll have to wear my Jedi costume again (see picture on the right). I WAS making a costume for MCM London Expo in May but my family decided we're going to Wales instead, so it's been put on hold until the one in October. But enough of my crazy costuming habits i hear you cry. Just seemed appropriate with my friend on cosplayisland next to me... She seems to have become obsessed with doing a SuckerPunch outfit, they look pretty cool to be honest, i think i shall have to go see the movie with her tomorrow..

Kinda bored of life at the moment, everything always seem monotonous. Same things everyday, I wish something exciting would happen. People are always saying "Stop trying to grow up so fast, you're only young, just be patient", but i don't want to, i want something fun to happen, but i'm useless at making these things happen, especially when it comes to trying to find a boyfriend... Yes i know i go on about this alot, but it's always preying on my mind. They tell me to be patient but, i just can't lol, i'm sure i'll find someone eventually.. Anyway, that's all from me for today
much love
Alice~
