We have been having a sleep strike in my house. Little Izzy has decided the only way she will sleep is if all attention is set upon her and mother is in the room. She is very specific as she likes to get her own way and has already crowned herself queen of the household in the matter of three weeks. My mother must give her her baby pink bunny rabbit and rattle and if she fails to disobey in any way we are rewarded with up to 2 hours of screaming, wonderful. The type of screaming it is impossible to ignore, watch tv through or have any type of conversation that does not involve saying "Huh? What?" a couple of hundred times. So after several days of enduring the screaming with no end in sight I enrolled the help of the amazing yet genius dummy. I think it sprinkled some fairy dust and cast a magic spell because after placing in the dummy poof she was asleep. That dummy was blessed with magial sleeping powers, it's a gold mine.
So the lack of sleep has not been a brilliant front to be perfectly honest, especially with GCSES right on the doorstep now. Have now finished with Religious Education and also Physical Education, both of which seemed like a walk in the park, but knowing me I'll go to retrieve my results and end up being that girl with the results reading FUDGE. This weekend is going to be pretty full up with English Literature revision, 'coz I realised today that If I fail to achieve a B in English Language/Literature I will have to end up attending the Marsh Academy for sixth form, oh joy. What's more I also have masses of revision to do for History as I have not yet gone back over my notes from last year.
Friendships are not one of my strong points during this period of my life. Falling in and out of them twenty-four seven it seems. I knew that throughout this month many people will become less and less frequent in my life, due to the strain that is being put on me during these examinations. But the thing is, it's already happening. Friends I use to see every weekend are now just a distant memory in the back of my mind, and rarely come to see me - even when they are within twenty metres of the place that I am standing. *sigh*
On a happy note, I recently discovered that I have lost one pound on the Wii fitt since I have started using it, which was around two days okay. My virtual trainer has been getting on at me for the last fourty eight hours, saying I have been slacking and potentially have been having midnight snacks which I have been guilty of, but he's an animated figure how is he meant to know what I get upto in my spare time. So finally I have proven his little pixelated head wrong, haven't I? Futhermore I have approximately twenty seven days to loose upto a stone of weight, but with my excellent Hula Hoopin' skills, I doubt this is going to be much of a physical challenge.
So I suggest you wish me luck happy bloggers...

Brilliant. :)
Good luck with the English Language/Literature tests, what course is it you're following?
Thank you Uhmm...
English Literature - Poems from the Anthology, including Gillian Clarke, Seamus Heaney and the Pre19-14 bank. Along with that is the novel section - for me it's Of Mice and Men.
English Language - Poetry from other cultures and writing to explain/describe/etc
And the reading paper :)
