I apologise in advance for any appalling spelling mistakes, it's late...

I thought I should write a journal, feel like trying to keep people updated. First off, it's the end of the summer. The holidays are soon to be over, and we will once again be in college, the best weather has passed, and the opportunity to do absolutely nothing for weeks on end has gone.

I always start thinking about how quickly my life advances at the end of the summer holidays, it's the looming new school year that causes me to remember the year past, and how little of it there seems to be; I keep realising that I'm 17 and in a few months I'll be 18, it scares the shit out of me, I just want to be 13 again. Thus far, this holiday, I have done...little, I went to the lake district on holiday, with the family, and a tent, that was as unbearable as expected, but at least I got some photos (see recent deviations), there are a load more, but I'm going to drip-feed you lot them in the hope it'll make you more inclined to leave comments and suchlike. We spent 10 days in sometimes spectular scenery, half of the holiday was glorious sunshine, the second half, torrential rain, which served no purpose other than making the grass green and the family depressed. But it was alright in the end, was glad to be home though.

I didn't go to Soul Survivor this year for various reasons, which is something I regret, will be next year though.

Bah I don't know what to say anymore. Sara gave me the benefit of the doubt, btw...

Got my results through, not that they're anything other than expected...suffice to say I'm passing, just. I'm continuing with all my subjects in my second year, even though I'm dropping maths from an advanced course to the standard one, and I'm taking up photography additionally, hence the £400 digital SLR. I just hope I can sort my grades out before it's too late, it's only just starting to dawn on me how much control I have over my future now, I know that's kinda late, but I'm a terrible procrastinator, I've avoided thinking about it.

Everything else? Well it's just peachy.
