Pumpkin, Dorkarella and her new found sanctuary

Right now. this very week. has been awesome.

At First i thought it would be so difficult to make friends. and tbh it was but so many people are so friendly and bubbly, its hard not to talk to them!
my class is brilliant! there are some pretty outstanding people there! two Jas's three callums and one RMG. lol thats obviously not all of them but tbh i cant quite remember every single name!
obviously having my best friend in the class helps! but we're not always together. oh well. but still i have a few friends there. Sophie, she's rather epic tbh has a really nice smile and is always welcoming. then there's Olly i met him the first day we were there. he is a bit of a bulk but i dont mind. and he can get out of line AKA pissed off about anything!
Then there's my classes,
Geography:- i have lots of people in my class and luckily JW ISN'T in there.. THANK GOD!
Then there's psychology:- This tbh...i LOVE! its immense on so many grounds! i have a girl next to me called danny. she's so nice! and so happy all the time even if i have only known her for three days!
English literature:- the teacher is on the wrong department! SERIOIUSLY! :'( and its all war theme :(

oh well anyhow i have recently met a girl who i get on famously with. very pretty, my height and SO nice! there is never a dull moment when we're not talking! :L glad i met her she cheered me up when i thought i was having a off-day. if you ever read this thanks :)

College. Uni. Job. Life.

I'm going to college tomorrow.
A level's at last and finally able to do the things i love most. or almost all of them. when i set out to go to the grammar school i never expected to be turned down.
my grades weren't enough and so i didn't get in. i settled with going to joseph wright a derby college in the city centre, bonus; my best friends going.
i never expected this to have much impact on me but unfortunately it did and so far its hurt. all in all i believe that when one door closes, two doors open. i am now going to study psychology and english literature. also another thing that maybe, because i'm going elsewhere is that i've discovered i want to be a writer.
Not a poet. or a lyricist. a writer. i may not be very good at spelling but i know i can learn and look in the dictionary ;)

i'm sticking with taking psychology though because it is something thats interested me for years and its been a dream for a couple years now to take it at university.
recently i've noticed that because of the top ranking of universities are almost next to impoosible for me to get in...e.g. oxford..Cambridge and birmingham. because i also know someone on facebook that has just finished her A levels also interested in psychology wanted to get into birmingham... she got denied because her grades weren't good enough they were all A's and one B... she took FIVE a levels. so thats birmingham out of the picture. just because she got one a level below their standard. i've been looking into moving to london for uni. its almost like being at home in edinburgh. full of excitement and you dont know where you're ctually going considering you've been there once or twice. it can be hard to understand why i feel quite scared about not getting into uni. because all i've ever wanted is to go the full way. i know i'm not AMAZINGLY clever but everyone should have their chance to learn. even if i dont have to go to uni straight away i could always do uni afterwards.

JD has guts. because what he is doing is amazing. he has so much on his plate and yet he manages to keep him about hiself. i couldn't do it. i wouldn't be able to cope. we were talking tonight i couldn't understand why he had said no to something. but when he explained i realised how selfish and idiotic i was. trying to make him do something when he was very busy. i understand and know now that i really shouldn't pry when someone says no. it's given me a bigger thought on how lucky i am to only have to please myself because my mother is normally happy with what i achieve most of the time. to end my conclusion i believe that one day i will be happy wih what i end up doing in life. jsut as long as i know where i'm going and what i'm aiming for.

this piece of writing was inspired by JD but mostly of meeting and talkign to a complete stranger (women) on the bus home (:
thank you xxxx
