I just bought more Boosh tickets!
2nd Row, Bristol October 28th ;)
so exciting

my hands are shaking from the hell that is ebay though
ebay stress is like worse than actual stress I swear.

though it did cost £165 for two
mum was all 'YOU SPENT THE MONEY WE NEED FOR FOOD?'
but she's cool know, I made lots of promises to do things for her, and obviously I'm paying her back (£101 payed, only £54 to go!)

and I may be going down to London tomorrow
a certain friend wants to wait at riverside for returns to the boosh warm up, which I was al for at first, but it's the day before now and we keep calling up and they haven't had any returns at all, unlike last time, and it looks like we're going to spend three hours there and back and be completely dissapointed.

...but still, 2nd row!

English Literature - A*
English Language - A*
Biology - A*
Chemistry - A*
Drama - A
History - A
Maths - A
Physics - A
French - A
Art - B

Next year I'm taking English Lit, History, French and Psychology because I like them the most.
English Lit is what I want to do at uni so I'm glad it was my best (I think they're in order of how well you did) but I hoped for A*s in History and French, but never mind, I got all the wrong questions in History and literally had a panic attack (and nosebleed) during the exam, and I didn't work anywhere near as hard as I should've for French. I expected much worse in sciences and maths and art. So on the whole; YAY!

That made my day.
Oh no, what actually made my day was finding a photobucket filled with Barratt's scribbles (ah made of awesome!) from the 90s, from the Know Me Place.
I'll link to the photobucket if anyone asks.

thanks to everyone who left a supportive comment

Having had time to think and chat with everyone, it's become pretty clear that this is a positive change rather than a negative one. My parents will be happier and I'll be doing more actual stuff with my dad. Also we had the house valued and it's worth quite a bit (even with the current state of affairs - yeseconomyreference) and on top of that my brother's still got a fair bit of the 1.3 million (which when you actually work out how much it would cost to pay to look after him full time is nothing) he got from the NHS when he was born left, and as Dad's going to go back to work we'll have another set of income so we'll be able to afford carers to get him up in the morning for school etc etc

also Dads going to be around like all the time and he won't move out for at least six months yet. I'm not ignoring that it's going to be a massive adjustment and it's still sad but it might not be as bad as all that.

My parents gave me and my sister some bad news. They're splitting up.
I know it's a cliché, but I'm just massively shocked. Like, everything was completely fine yesterday and now my Dad's going to move out and he won't be living with us anymore and basically we're no longer a family. And I know it's selfish but I just want him to stay because I really love my Dad and get on with him and I'm going to miss him so so much. Mum says I'll have a better time with him because we'll do more actual stuff with him and he won't 'just always be in the background', but I like it when 'cause always around. Once when I was five he went on holiday for three weeks to see his brother in Australia and it was so weird. And I don't know how many of you know this but my older brother is seriously physically and mentally disabled, he has cerebral palsy. I don't think he'll understand what's happening, but I don't know how my mum's going to look after him because Dad does EVERYTHING for him (I think that was contributuing to why he was so low) and she's not that strong (physically - but now I've written it emotionally too I guess) and she says we'll just get carers to come more often to get him up for school and stuff. But it's going to be so expensive because Dad wants to get a house (not a flat?) really close which is in his price range and is wheelchair accessable which means getting hoists and lifts if there are stairs fitted and it all costs so much money which we don't have. And I can't believe now that three days ago I asked mum if there was anyway I could earn £100 doing jobs for her for my fourth pair of Boosh live tickets just because none of my tickets are in the stalls 'cause the presale was fucked up. Anyway, I just thought it would never be my parents. They moved in together when my mum was sixteen (omg my age kflsfahl) and deliberately went to the same university and have done everything together ever since and it's been over thirty years. And I think that's what upset me most - because if they can't do it I don't think anyone can. I read all these books I love so much like Pride and Predjudice and they read Shakespeare's Sonnets to you in English and none of it's true it's all bullshit. No-one can really do 'forever' - it's too long. Which really, really sucks. 

The thing I was most worried about was my parents meeting new people (selfishalarmbelssrininglikemad), but Mum says that's not going to happen at her end, because she wanted her life 'to be simpler, not more complicated', and my Dad's never been incredibly blessed in the social skills department so maybe that won't happen. It might, but, maybe not.

I'm sorry for the massively whiney post but I can't talk to my sister about this which I would normally do because I'll upset her. She's only twelve and she hasn't said anything about this she's just cried and shrugged her shoulders and said one thing once which was that she's confused and that's it. In fact she didn't even cry straight away, she concentrated really hard on eating her food while I got all upset and then once she'd finished she cried. I think she didn't have anything to distract her after she'd finished it. So I'm just using this to vent, sorry again.

I know it's annoying but I'd love some comments, even if I don't know you that well because nothing like this has ever happened in my family and I'm not used to it and I've run out of people to talk to.

And, Ros, I want to know what you got in your A Levels! Make sure you let me know! *fingers crossed*

hello lj, it's been a while but it's the holidays so I can post more.

Going to London later and NOTHING is organised, so if I don't post for the next year or so, you know I died there trying to get the 23:30 coach home while the tubes were shut. :) isgonnabefun.

but on the bright side, Russell and Noel and James Corden and Mat Horne and Amstell. I don't need to communicate my gothy-detectivey excitement. Last time I saw Amstell it was the warm up of is first stand-up tour, and he kept reading stuff of the back of his hand and he was shaking, so it will be nice to see how much he's improved. And we love a bit of Gavla & Stacela so it will be great to see James and Matt. Can I get James to sign my History Boys DVD or should I just bring the G&S? idk

- yus I know I my layouts gone wierd but I don't think anyone has to see it but me cos I have default comments pages and I'm too lazy to fix it yet

I know I've talked of nuttin but the joker since TDKs been out but if you don't love him there's something srsly wrong with you

So, I want to make Johnny Depp one of those little dangly thing he clips onto his trousers. Out of shameful idolising and allowing myself to be over influenced by him I made one for myself except it had little silver beads and a yellow one that looked like a buttercup and this weird piece of shell that looked like a shiny tooth and a boosh monkey head my friend made out of fimo and a little skull like his rings and Russell's necklace. So I thought I could make him another one to add to his collection, but I want each of the beads etc to sort of, mean something? Like, I got some black glass pearl beads. PIRATESREFERENCE. And so on and so forth.
But I'm out of ideas.
SUGGEST, PLEASE?!

I love you all sososo much for helping me.
(Ladyyy, if you don't comment I'm stealing your brain while you sleep ;D)

(AAAAAAHHH I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE I'M GOING TO A BURTON/DEPP PREMIERE, ESPECIALLY THIS ONE)
