31st,May:Trip To Wales!

So for the past week, My family and I went to one of Europe`s largest campsites called shell Island. A little island that rests near Snowdonia National Park, and on the island... You can see Snowdonia all around you and it`s Beautiful! 

But i thought i would share some of the pictures of the place and what we did whilst we where there, i won`t drag it along. 

 So the island itself is very long and tiring to walk down completely. But there are plenty of places to park up and camp, motorhomes and camperhomes and welcome and so are dogs. You can have bonfires on the beach, play music until 11pm and you just have a lot of freedom on the island.
But in return, Plice patrol the island to make sure that nothing illegal is going on, and then there are people in Security vans who just make sure that everything is fine.

 So my older sister, month old nephew and Little sister stayed inside of the Motor home all week and me and my mum stayed inside of the Tent, But my mum only laster one night... I sleep talk and sleep, and during the night i apparently curled up to my mum and i looked all cute; then i started to whisper in her ear but she didn`t know what i was saying... That and it was very cold so she hid in the motor home.


The beach was lovely, there was a long strip of sand and then a lot of large rocks/boulders that led up to the shore. So there where plenty of untouched shells just laying around, crabs hidden in rocks and then washed up jellyfish that dotted the island. I did feel bad for them though, obviously you can`t move them otherwise you could get hurt... Then the next day you`ll go back and they`ll be all gross and dried up, some even turned black or brown because no one dared to touch them. But when they where alive the colours of them where so pretty and delicate... :3

Also, on the other side of the island happened to either be the largest sand dunes in the country, or the largest sand dunes in Wales. As we got closer to them we could see tiny people stood at the top sliding down on body boards and just going down on there backsides. They went on for a while; we spent two days down there just trying to get around the whole thing whilst my sister was walking around with her new born baby... Wasn`t entirely practical.


The only downside to all of the walking around the island is that my feet blistered and even the dogs started ti get tired. You`re only aloud to take two dogs onto the island so we only took Evie and Henry who is just over four months old now. They both loved it! Since we got Henry, Evie has been feeling a bit un-loved so the holiday perked her up a bit more; then Henry just loved sniffing other dogs butts...

During the week we also traveled to Betws-y-coed for the day. It`s only a small place with a bunch of adorable shops to walk around and buy likkle presents from.
But next to the train stations platform was a little Art gallery, you had to go down some steep steps into the gallery which lead under the shops. It was small and quite adorable down there, the artist (His name has completely gone over the top of my head), had recently been to Africa and the exhibition that i saw was actually based off of things he had seen and the cruelty he had seen done to animals.

I`m sorry for the really late upload aswell, but i`ve been busy the past two weeks; i really do need to set schedules for uploading stuff on here... So I am very sorry.
But the week was amazing, the weather got a bit bad towards the end of the week though so we left a day early instead. It was nice to have a break from work and sixth form, but i still took a lot of my coursework along with me. But it was still nice to chill out by the beach with the dolphins. ^.^

Holiday To wales! (No Updates)!

So i`m going on Holiday this Saturday, to Wales!

The island i`m going too has no electricity and no Wifi, so i can`t upload anything for the whole week. So hopefully if i go off of the island and into a public place, i could always update off of my phone? But i`ve never done it off of my phone, so i have no idea as to how that will turn out.

But just a quick heads up, there won`t be any uploads and then when i`m back there will probably just be a giant spam of wales pictures from my little holiday!
I am taking my HTC phone, LG phone and my Camera for pictures. I can charge things, but i have to go to the main building and they charge you a ridiculous amount per hour... 

I think i`m gonna die this week... 

Also, check out my other blogs if you want to keep yourself occupied whilst i`m gone!

16th, April: Illness and Exams.

16th, April: Illness and Exams.

So there have yet again been no updates here... Sorry!

But for the past two weeks or so i`ve been quite ill, throwing up on a daily basis and being able to hardly move around without being extremely uncomfortable.
I`ve had to have a weekend off of work and a few days off of sixth form, i have been to the doctors but i`ll mention that later ^.^

So Sixth Form:
I haven`t been to busy really, the majority of my work now is going towards my final piece and the exam that i actually have this week. I have been staying behind a lot more, till about 6, just to try and get more experimentation pieces done since everything else is now going towards the final thing.
Not everything has been finished yet for my final thing and it`s worrying me just a little bit now as we have 2 and a half days to put everything together and i don`t have it all prepared for those days... so now i need to panic a little bit!

Also, David has been offered an Interview at a place close by called Confetti studios. They mainly work with people in the performing arts, but it turns out that they also have an illustration course! I`m really proud of David for this and i seriously love his drawings. I am very proud of him and his work, he would be doing the same course as me, but unfortunately he didn`t get the correct grades. He was also contemplating doing the course that i`m on next year; but i think he should go for whatever he wants. But more specifically, Confetti does the right course for him, so maybe that`s the right place for him? I dunno, but as long as he thinks he`s chosen the right thing for him and that he`s happy; then i`m a happy Melonhead ^.^
But then the only problem with him going to Confetti studios, is that i won`t get to see him as much as i do now. So it`s going to be harder to spend time with him, even if i am only missing out an hour a day; it`s weird not even seeing him for that one hour. But whatever he decides, we`re gonna be able to make it work ^.^


So Illness wise:
I`ve been ill for almost two weeks now, i have been to the doctors to get it all checked out but i went for five things in total. I`ve been putting nearly everything off for a while now because when it comes to going to the doctors, i usually have to miss a few hours off of Sixth Form.
So for a while now everything has just been held off; but since i`ve been so sick for the past two weeks or so, i`ve gone and tried to get everything sorted out. One or two of the problems i won`t talk about because they`re a bit more personal to me.

1. Memory Loss.
I can remember hardly anything nowadays and i`ve been writing notes and leaving them dotted around to remind myself to things.
apparently it`s down to the stress i`m putting on myself, and that i should keep on writing little notes and memos until i start to remember things a lot more easier. It was also recommended that i play some brain training games or do some regular exercise to clear my head.

2. Skin Problems.
So the skin on my legs has always been bad, but just lately there`s a casual patch of it that`s gotten significantly worse and keeps on bleeding and just acting plain funny. So i`ve now got two creams; one is for all of the dry skin and the other is just for this random patch of dry skin that bleeds and blisters every now and then. (Not contagious and not a rash).

3. Breathing Difficulty.
So i`ve been having breathing difficulties on my left side, but now the pain is going up into my left shoulder. I`ve been told that this is probably because the blood vessels in my left shoulder are being crushed by the bag that i carry. Even though it is double strapped at all times and i even out the weight, so i don`t know how it`s being crushed in such a way that i cannot move my arm properly.

(The other two are a bit too personal to put up here).
But i was there for a while trying to explain what was going on and why i`d out everything off for so long. But to be honest with you, i`m starting to think that my health is a lot more than just "oh i`ll feel better soon." Even though i`ve struggled with mental health illnesses, this is just proving to me that there are a lot more problems rather than just that right now; and i think i need to pay attention to my body a lot more from now on.
The way that i`ve felt recently has been the worst i`ve been in about 3 years and i didn`t even want to move or get out of bed.
So i`ve had to have a few days off of Sixth Form and i`ve also had a weekend off of work, which i`ve gotten in trouble for... great! But on the topic of work, i`m thinking about leaving B&M. I`m not enjoying any of it, just going there makes me feel uncomfortable and i`m not enjoying being there at the moment and i really don`t think it`s for me right now.


If you also want to see my new blog update on my Art blog about  a little therapy for when i was ill and some photography. (Hasn`t been uploaded yet though, probably take a few days as i`m at work.)

Normal-ish Updates Arriving soon.

So since i`ve been so behind on updates and the fact that i`ve been so busy has been meaning that i cannot upload as much as i want to do now.

Every weekend i now work and then a day after school for a few hours, and since there are now exams going on i`ve been staying behind after school and then going straight to bed and have just been relaxing really.
Plus, Blogger is being a little bit of a biatch right now.
Whenever i right blog updates i usually write them up on wattpad and then copy&paste them over on to here... But now whenever i paste it all over onto here, a white background appears that i cannot get rid of and it`s bugging the hell out of me now...

So yeah, should get back to normal soon guys! It shouldn`t take to long!

25th, April: First weeks back and a perfect excuse for the lack of updates.

So we're back at sixth form and i'm shattered already.So during my first week back at school i`ve stayed behind a total of three nights until 6pm. The majority of work that i`ve been producing at sixth form has just been plain experimentation and i`ve also been sorting out the board i`m using for my final piece. It`s been quite boring, mostly just establishing the point that i`m at and what i should be doing next, and that was about it really. I`ve also been helping David (boyfriend) Out with his coursework and i have been helping him get onto an Art course next year which he`s really looking forward too, but all he has to do now is get the grades... which i know he`ll be able to get because he`s so bloody awesome. also David and I have been together for 8 months now, which is also pretty damn awesome. If anyone knows me as a person then you would know that this has actually been one of my longest relationships... I`m not a very good people person and i`m extremely bad at dedication to situations. I`m terrible at everything when i think about it , so to me this is awesome. Other people will look at it like what dafuq when you think about, but screw you guys i guess XD.

This recent Wednesday i also went to Leicester University and picked up 36 different prospectuses that are from all of the Universities that i though where appealing and only did Art courses. But for the specific course i want to do, there are only 2 Universities that do it in the whole country; but then again i need back up plans for if i don`t get in or if i don`t get the right amount of UCAS points. I may be going to University in September Next year, but i worry about almost everything and about all of the time now. So of course i`m always panicking about whats to come... I`m even worrying about my exam in three weeks, geeez help me someone.

 Ranting Session:
 I`m also getting rather pissed off with a certain person from my sixth form and art class. Now if you want a bit of gossip then read the rest of this please, then i would give you some good news on My sister`s baby boy.  So i`ve recently found out, This Monday, That a person i`m very close within my class has recently cheated on her boyfriend by sleeping with another lad and then broke up with her recent boyfriend. 

Now i actually had no idea as to what to do... Because the Friday before that she got all cosy and demanded that she tagged along with David, when i asked if i should go to she gave me the dirtiest and most sliest look i`ve ever seen before in my life.So on her way into town she told David about her sleeping with another lad and she sounded quite content about the matter. 
Then when i told her that i knew she started yelling at my david because he told me. I did ask if it was true and smiling and laughing she said "yes of course!" Now ladies, i have never ever seen someone so happy at the fact that she`s willing gone and slept with someone because she was "bored." I`ve never been so shocked, surprised and humorous in my life. I actually couldn`t stop laughing at the fact that she was proud of something so disgusting, who dafaq would be proud of this! Seriously, i just told her she was a slag and that was the end of it; it`s absolutely horrible and i have no idea as to how she even did it... She isn`t even pretty, not that i have a huge ego or anything but even when i told the year 13 girls they just burst out laughing at the fact that someone would do that XD but anyways, what ever is going on in her tiny fu**ed mind of hers i don`t even want to be a part of it right now. Why would i when she`s that disgusting to be able to do that.... Just ughhh 

 Now enough about the gossip at Sixth Form and onto my sister.She gave birth successfully on Wednesday night at about 11:30. She spent 25 and a half hours in Labor and it was completely agonizing for her. Nearly everything that was supposed to go right ended up going wrong for her, and this is her first birth... 

 So she had slow labor pains on the Friday, her waters broke on Tuesday Night and she was having extreme contractions; she was taken to hospital by my mum and then they told her that she had to come back home and come in within two days for them to help her give birth. Earlier on the next morning she was taken to hospital again by my mum and this time they kept her in. 

Then she eventually gave birth, but it was extremely complicated for her. Her body stopped having contractions so she had to be put onto a hormone drip to start them up again, she was to tired to keep on pushing so then they had to put a suction cap on the babies head and pull him out slowly. then she tore in two different places and then the placenta ripped on the way out; so they had to drop the bed down and place a bucket underneath to catch all of the blood and then she was that badly off of her head that she had no idea what was going on. 

She is home now, and everything is going well, she`s just struggling to move around a bit and is struggling with being a single parent. But hopefully she shall adjust to it and with the help of me, my younger sister, my mum and my dad she`ll be completely fine.

Sorry For No Uploads...

I just want to apologize to the majority of readers for a complete lack of updates...

So in the past week my older sister has been getting closer to the end of her pregnancy and i`m currently getting a lot of exam preparation work done and ready to be taken into the exam.

As i`m actually writing this quick update for the regular readers, my sister is currently at the hospital in Labour and is ready to go into the delivery room. I haven`t had any news from my mum and dad who are with her now, but i now now that she is ready to go and is almost fully dilated.
Things with my three blogs should begin to return to normal after this weekend. I`ll also be introducing you all to my nephew very, very soon. .

So I just wan to say thank you so much to everyone who is being patient; and those who have messaged me asking me if i`m okie, trust me... I think i`m alive.

11th, April 2015: Lazy Time.

I`ve been practicing some random stuff this week, this is one
of the small things i`ve been working on to go on a vintage stop
watch. It`s going on canvas pretty soon! 

11th, April 2015: Lazy Time

So i think that it has finally occurred to me that i'm just full of pure laziness... we've had two weeks off from sixth form and i've done practically nothing since we've had the time off. Now it's the end of the last week, so... yep. 

So Monday:
So i went to work for the day, the weather was lovely but obviously i had to stay inside for the day serving customers. But i also felt like crap, and i got told off for leaning on the counter for 5-10 minutes. But then again i had missed my break, which would of only been 15 minutes anyway. Then my back and stomach felt like they had been ripped out, placed back inside me upside down and then strangled.
Then i want home and still felt like crappolio, so i did a bit or art stuff and sorted out some of new equipment and got rid of some old stuff.
I basically just chilled all night and got nothing done... oops!

On Tuesday:
So i went to the doctors and had the most horrifying blood test in the history of blood tests. It involved a lot of squirting blood due to high blood pressure... I`ll let my following Instagram picture perform a brief explanation of the following events... (Go to the blog to see the picture).
I also managed to get hold of some Quiteapine pills from my doctor, i had explained to him how ill i had been feeling whilst i had been off of the pill (due to a letter that was lost in the mail, that had details for my next check up).  So he`s given me another months worth of pills to keep me going, but after that i have no idea as to what i will do....
Then i stayed at home and got even more coursework done whilst i had the time.

Wednesday/Thursday:
 I picked up my quiteapine pills and met up with my boyfriend (David), i slept at his Wednesday night. We mainly just played on the xbox, relaxed a bit and drank a lot of juice since i`ve just found out that i have another water infection due to high levels of de-hydration.
So i just stayed at Davids, the weather was lovely too which meant that he got to see me in some clothes he`s never seen before. since i always wear the same things at Sixth form and because the weather has been sh*t, it`s been a while since i wore something nice. Plus it felt good to just actually look nice for a change whilst in front of my boyfriend. So i felt pretty good.I then got the best nights sleep ever because i had my Quiteapine pills.
The same again really, just hung out some more with David, tried to steal is fridge, played video games and then had some hugs :3
I like hugs.

Hanging out with David is awesome though :3

Friday:
So on Friday i got to see my dad; `s finally been discharged from the hospital with the laser cut burns on is hand. He`s doing much better now and can use his hand again; he just has to be very careful wit the amount of pressure he applies when picking tings up or moving his hand around.
Didn`t do much, so yeah... Quite another boring day. 

Saturday:
I`ve been into work today, it went a lot better than expected for some reason. To be honest, it felt like a much better atmosphere than before. It was me, Maddie, Chelsey and Charlie on the tills; Which is much better than before because i know these guys from previously working wit them and then i know Charlie from school.
So i`m back at home now writing out this quick update and getting on wit some more coursework; i`m also going to be painting two more canvas` for my project and i`ll just be doing some doodles in my old sketchbook. 

The reason i waited until today to make an update is because it`s bee quite boring this week and i`ve done practically nothing but stay at home and go to work. So i`m quite happy at the fact that i can do the update now instead of missing it altogether.
i`ll also be doing a writing competition with my Boyfriend, David; w`re both going to be working on a book with the same characters and the same title. But instead of working together, we`ll be working against each other to see who can produce the best copy of the book. It`s going to be called Limbo and i should hopefully be getting started on it soon.
You`ll be able to find the book on my wattpad account, i`ll add a post here to tell everyone as to when i`m starting.
