In The Cold, Cold Night...
In all honesty, I don't have that much to say, but I haven't updated in so long, it is definitely blog o'clock.
What's new? Well, I am very happy right now. Things are going rather well at the moment. Apart from school. It is absolutely exhausting and I'm struggling to cope with Advanced Maths, the reason being, I have missed so much and I can't catch up. I know I'm the one to blame but that just makes it even more frustrating. I don't even feel like doing maths right now (and yeah, I have my moments when I do). I feel like waking up early in the morning, reading books, listening to music and painting/drawing. Having nice, quiet days, away from noisy, always busy people. People who spend their lives worrying about things that, at the end of the day, don't matter at all. People living by rules and guidelines, going about their day, without stopping and thinking about what the hell they're actually doing and its significance. People who fail to see beauty in the small things and always want more, even though what they already have is too much already. You get the point, I hate people. I want to be able to do nothing (nothing being, whatever I want, not whatever I have to do..)
I went to Glasgow on Wednesday, and I'm not gonna lie, I absolutely loved it. I have been to other open days, but Glasgow is definitely the right place for me. I just felt like I belong there. For uni anyway. After that I would really like to go live abroad. Hopefully I'll get a chance.
My dad just came in and told me that my laptop might catch on fire one day... What?
That was random...
The past few days I have been so exhausted, I've been going to bed at 9/10ish. It doesn't help, I am still really tired the next day. I think something is wrong with me...
Anyway, it's time for me to go. I will probably update this more often now for a bit, before, once again, I abandon it. I like to keep my posts short these days.
Goodnight all x

Beginning of the End
So... last first day of school. I will never again have a first day of school. Such a weird thought, off to uni in like a year now! Oh dear!
The first day back was actually rather successful. After 4 hour sleep, I woke up in a fantastic mood, kinda excited to be back. I was getting really bored of just doing nothing all day. So I went to school, in my uniform, and spent all day helping 1st years and taking them to classes. I didn't actually have a lesson till period 5 so it was awesome. That's as much detail as I'm gonna go into. I am very tired right now, it was a very hectic day!
And, I've decided I will be taking a picture everyday, or at least try to. So that by the end of the year I'll have lots of photos and great memories to look back at. :)
so yeah
Tomorrow I will try to take a picture of my wee buddies :)
First day of my last year at high school was really great, even though we got abused by younger years (as expected), and didn't know what was happening half the time! A nice way to start a FUN year (hopefully)!
Byes x

| Day 1: Me and Eireann, at about 3:20, just outside maths, on our way to get our first years :) I am glad such a fantastic moment was captured! I really missed Eireann and her banter, so I'm glad we're reunited again! |
Byes x

Day 2 and Sports
Right so today was my second day of getting up at 6AM and going for a wee run at the bevy. My legs, so not used to any form of exercise, are kinda sore now, but they'll get better soon. I remember the time when I used to be very fit. Yes, there was a time where I exercised about 4 times a week at least. Back in Poland.
It started when I was about 9 years old when I started horse riding. My first summer camp. Two weeks of getting up at 4 to help out with the horses then having breakfast at 8 and then at some point during the day doing half an hour of horse riding, playing lots of games, hanging out, getting to know each other and learning some theory. And cold showers, unless you were lucky enough to have a shower earlier than everyone else haha. Then staying up till midnight and telling each others stories. Fun times!
Later that year my parents decided to sign me up for skiing lessons. Loved it! Met lots of new people and had a lot of fun. During the winter I went skiing about 4 times a week, in the evenings and Saturdays. When there was no snow, we would go to the gym, and either play basketball/volleyball/football/handball, or do some running outside, or go cycling. Stuff like that. It was tiring but so awesome. And at school I would take part in all school championships and stuff and I was very much a sports person. And believe it or not, I was very good too. I won lots of things for the school, got some medals, stuff like that. Oh and I did dancing as well, and tennis lessons twice a week. And I would go everywhere on my bike. So yeah, those were the good old days.
And then I moved here. And there was nowhere to go and nothing to do and for 4 years I didn't do anything. I put on some weight, which was alright actually because it wasn't much and I was very skinny to start with and had a fast metabolism (still do). But right now I am the fattest I've ever been. And okay, I know it's not that bad but for me it means that it's getting worse, and if I don't do anything now I'll just keep gaining weight till I'm properly fat. So I decided to go running :)
So yeah, that's the story, I was gonna keep it short but.. yeah...
Also, I just found like 1000 old photos from Poland and some from Scotland and I will do a post soon with just the photos. Not all of them though...

My Body's At Home, But My Heart's In The Wind
Don't you think that the world looks so beautiful at 6AM? Yea, that's right, I got up at 6 and went for a run and I am so proud of myself because I've been wanting to do so for ages but never got round to it. It was freezing, at first anyway, but it was so quiet and foggy and I really enjoyed that. I don't like people, you see. I only went for half an hour but I'll try to do it every morning, before school. Now that's gonna be a challenge...
Also, I finally got my photo taken for my passport/provisional, and I look like an ugly drug dealer. But what did I expect.. haha. So yeah, I'll try to send away my form and stuff and get a provisional ASAP, and then a car. Yep, I'll get a car before I get lessons. The logic behind it is that I will have to get a car anyway at some point, so I might as well get it now and then pay less for lessons as my parents will teach me. And as to insurance, the car will be a shitty, wee, old thing most likely so it shouldn't be THAT much...
Anyway, I really can't wait to live alone. And by 'alone' I mean away from my parents. I want to be more independent, responsible for myself. And be able to do whatever the hell I want haha. But I still have a year left of high school... awful times. I will try to make the most of it though. I really wish I was going to uni this year, and I kinda regret not applying. But I did want to stay on for 6th year for funsies, get involved in all the committees and do lots of charity stuff and all that. But since then my circumstances have changed slightly and I really wish I was going to uni now. Plus I cannot stand my parents anymore. They are really irritating! Ohhhh well. I will live.
Now, it's time for me to go. I am absolutely freezing, and slightly tired.
Breakfast, then book in bed. Brrrrrr!
Bye bye.
