I'm going on holiday in 7 hours.
Just got off of MSN with Joe, it's 4am. We talked non-stop for 6 hours. Going to miss him so much and the goodbye was not fun.
But once I'm on my way to the airport excitement will set in and it will be fine.
Am sure I'll blog whilst I'm away!
Sorry anyone who was expecting/looking forward to my Q&A vlog that I promised for yesterday. Ran out of time ):
Hope everyone has a brilliant couple of weeks xx

Some things.
Tomorrow I am going house hunting.
I kind of feel like tomorrow is the start of not being the Jocy I always have been, because Jocys who wear Busted pyjamas and watch Pokemon and eat cold baked bean sarnies are not mature enough to house hunt, but now I have to be mature enough to house hunt.
I feel like I have to let the past 18 years rest in peace and now suddenly act my age and not my shoe size (which let's be honest, is still fairly big, but not as big as 18).
Anyways, speaking of being amazingly GROWN UP. This weekend I stayed at Ross' and so did Joe and it was very much awesome. On Saturday afternoon we sat in the park and Ross fell out a tree on purpose and then we went to Sainsbury's and bought Ben and Jerry's and then Ross made his SPECIAL PASTA (al dente) and we were CIVILISED and sat at the TABLE and used CUTLERY. And then we put on Mean Girls and the sofas were pushed right up close to the TV and we watched Mean Girls whilst eating a tub of Ben and Jerry's each. But I was the only one who finished mine because I am a Dragon Slut. And then we played Rock Band at midnight and I did singing (very badly) and I sang to Nine in the Afternoon by Panic! At The Disco and I made sure my notes were perfect and I did this by mooing like a COW every time I had to do the "Your eyes are the size of the MOOOOOOON" bit. It was fun. And then we went to bed and then on Sunday morning we sat in our pyjamas for a long time and played more Rock Band and then me and Joe went to London and then we came home and that was my weekend. It was a very nice weekend. It was awesome to see Ross because I hadn't seen him in ages and HIDEOUSLY I actually missed him :@ And then after London I had to say bye to Joe and we will not see each other in three weeks now which is very sad because that will be the longest we have gone literally in years not seeing each other.
But overall, it was a really awesome weekend and a very good way to spend my last weekend in England before I go to LA on Wednesday (:

(':
Had a very nice day shopping in London with Estelle today :D
I bought:
The purse is from Octopus in Neal Street and the shoes are from Topshop in Oxford Street.
I am really looking forward to tomorrow (well, later today) because in the morning me and my mum are going shopping for last minute holiday bits and in the afternoon Joe is coming over and we are going to sunbathe and have a sleepover. Which means it's a given that Tuesday will also be laaavely. On Thursday I'm gatecrashing Joe's band's acoustic rehearsal and photoshoot for their flyers (I know right!!! :D) in London and then on Saturday me and Joe and Ross are going to see Toy Story 3.
And I just realised that now I can officially say "Next week I will be in California." So...NEXT WEEK I WILL BE IN CALIFORNIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's only now that I'm realising how much school sucked the life out of me!

I had Nando's tonight.
I haven't socialised in 7 days and I'm feeling the effects really badly.
I'm in a bad mood, I can't remember the last time I laughed till my stomach hurt and I'm losing the motivation to eat healthily.
I'm craving the sorts of days out when you don't bother looking at the time all day, when you don't have to do anything in particular, when everything is hilarious because you're with hilarious people.
I'm proud of myself for being so disciplined with the amount of overtime I've done this week, but I'm unsure if it's been worth it because I just feel so crap -_- As Joe put it, I "haven't been alive this week".
On a brighter note, had dinner today with my friend Frank (my brother's girlfriend's 12 year old brother :D) and we have planned a vlog that we are making together :D So I am very much looking forward to that!

I have the innate ability of being able to unintentionally alienate myself from everyone I cross paths with.
When I was younger I was terrible at first impressions. I wanted to seem cool and quirky, so I acted like a complete twat and people instantly hated me. Actually no, hate is too strong a word because to be hated you have to actually initiate a strong reaction from someone. I wouldn't flatter myself but saying I did that. I was one of those typical irritating little girls who thought they were so "random" because they wore odd socks and had a side fringe. The only people that I didn't alienate myself from were those the same as me. So miraculously, I ended up with quite a big group of friends.
Over the years this group depleted. It would be stupid for me to go about pointing fingers and blaming people, because I'm past everything that happened. But instead of viewing it as a negative thing, as it seemed to be at the time, I now like to look at it as a period in which I was able to filter off the people who obviously weren't meant to be a big part of my life forever. The reason this was a positive thing that happened is because I was left with one or two people who I feel like I'm clearly meant to be with forever. And then having these people who you know love you a lot boosts your self esteem, making you more confident and henceforth you become even better at first impressions. Maybe this is the reason over the past year I've made a few more amazing friends. Who knows.
Which brings me back to me alienating myself from everyone.
All I want to do is to be an unconditional best friend. I don't want to annoy people anymore. I don't want to fake it. I just want things to go how I used to lay in bed at night when I was 12 years old wishing they would. Most of the time they do. And sometimes I feel like I am still annoying, still fake and a nuisance.
If I can alienate myself from my best friends, then I don't think I have much hope at all.
