Short update + question

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
I'm going to be away on tuesday and wednesday as I'll be in Dundee.
Also, does anyone here watch Torchwood? If so, do you know whether or not it plays on some day other than wednesdays as most of the university visit days seem to be wednesdays. >_

Two full days in a row I've been at school now. Go me. Now I just need to keep this up.

EDIT:
Mam came home from work, and guess what?
She bought me a new shirt from the mens section. XD

Meh, I'm being monitored at school now which means no more going down to durham during my free periods damnit. I'm also seeing the school counsellor.

Anyway, enough depressing RL shit, I think I somehow managed to acquire a new fandom obsession from watching only one episode.
I just watched House for the first time and am in love/lust. Seriously.
I've been meaning to broaden my fanfiction reading skills (frankly I've ran out of Buffy and HP fanfiction to read) so I may look for some House fanfiction, and maybe some Stargate fanfiction. I might try to read some Star Trek fanfiction as well, but for some reason I prefer to just watch the episodes than to read the fanfic for that show, it's just a totally different atmosphere from the other fandoms when it comes to fics, y'know?

Anyway, yeah.

Bah!

There was a power cut at around 11pm yesterday. The dryer is time-activated for 1am. The power cut deleted that setting. I am now late for sixth form due to a wet uniform.
I'm not having a good day.

In other news, apparently the nearest gender specialist clinic is in Sheffield...nearest? Bah.

Anyway I have an appointment tommorow with some psychiatrist dude. I'm going to have to miss last lesson (Psychology) and explain to the teacher why I'm not going to be there. (i.e. I have to go see someone about my head)

Now I'm going to go read some slash to cheer me up. Actually, I don't even feel like going to school anytime soon today. Although I have to go in eventually, particularly since I need to go to the bank to change my account to an over 18 one.

Le sigh.

Ooh look, Harry Potter literotica involving threesomes, chan and much, much more!
See ya!

I have Ethics coursework to finish off, and guess what?
I left my Ethics folder in my locker at school.

*headdesk*

I have what I've written so far on my pen drive (which I have with me!) but the notes that the teacher made are in the folder. >_<

I guess I'm going to have to try and remember what she wrote, then in my free period first lesson I shall have to type like mad!

    RL Update

    I went into Sixth Form today. The last time I was in was over a week, almost two weeks, ago. I really should show up more, but I can never feel bothered to drag myself in. I did today, and guess what? I'm not really behind at all. I'm ahead in some things because of the reading I've done at home!
    School seems so very pointless to me at times.
    I did go to the Psychology Soc. at lunchtime and that was interesting. We watched a short video on Schizophrenia and then had a Q&A session with a psychology student from the local Uni.
    I'm thinking of starting a Philosophy Debate club. There already is a debate club but it focuses more on political aspects. So I was thinking of a debate club where we debate about the things we learn in class because frankly, the debates we end up having take up way too much lesson time lol. I figured somewhere for those debates to go might be appreciated. And it might look good on the UCAS form seeing as I want to study Philosophy. ;)
    So I'll talk to my teacher about it tommorow.

    That's all for now. I'm going to go do some French work.
    Au revoir!

    EDIT:
    I was just watching A Place in The Sun with my mam.
    I am bloody well going to go live in Transylvania, or at least retiring there!
    1. The place is f-ing gorgeous.
    2. SO FRICKIN' CHEAP!
    There was one house on there that had like a huge garden behind it and was £11,000.
    And another one had 7 double bedroom, 3 bathrooms etc. and was £44,000.

    So...

    Add to Memories Tell a Friend
    I just sort of half came out to my mam?

    It was weird lol.
    She wanted to know why I try my damned hardest to appear to have a flat chest, and then also asked if I had the opportunity would I get rid of 'them'. I said yes, I would.
    She also asked if I wish to be a man, I said maybe.

    But then I sort of got awkward talking about it (not big on heart-to-hearts) and said that I was going to bed.

    I'm getting there. Letting her mull over that. Then maybe tell her some more.

    Edit:
    Okay, fully out now. Mam came back for a second chat. Some tears may have been shed. Some hugging may have been involved. She still loves me (I'm an insecure git at times). She is going to locate a professional for me to talk to.

    I can't watch game shows; I keep yelling at the television.

    In other news:
    I'm all home alone today. Mam's spending the night at the hospital.
    It's just a simple little operation on her sinuses but I'm feeling pessimistic right now.
    I should stop worrying so much. :/

    RL Update

    Well, today (5th) was parents evening. It went surprisingly well actually.
    I've arranged with my Psychology teacher to change around which class I'm in. (I'm too quiet, class is too loud/intimidating - believes I will do better in another class)
    I've also arranged with my Philosophy teacher to help me with my personal statement. She spent most of the session telling my mother how much of a genius I am. (My ego may be slightly inflated right now *grins*)
    I can't stop listening to Meat Loaf. I can't stop watching Velvet Goldmine.
    Spike's gone crazy over the fireworks. I have a headache!
    I've started reading christmas-time HP fanfic. I just read one where Mrs. Weasley made Severus a weasley jumper. Heh.
    Winter's coming!
    Xmas' coming!
    Whoo!

    Update

    Add to Memories Tell a Friend
    Well, seems I've been neglecting dear ol' LJ.
    I've been a tad busy lately. School has started up again (my last year!) so that's taken up quite a bit of my time. Also, I've somehow found myself with a girlfriend.
    heh.
    I met her at the last Doc Black Danse Macabre where I got severely pissed and ended up at her house. :p
    So...yeah.
    Thursday I'm fully booked, as I am friday and saturday. Sunday is free so far. *glares at it to remain free*

    I'm honestly not used to all this socialising. It's unnerving!

    I've almost finished writing my personal statement for my uni application.
    Also, my psychology teacher said that everyone's PYB2 papers were being remarked.
    Everyone had done pretty bad in the exam, so bad that she sent six off to be remarked and because the scores changed considerably, they're all being remarked now. Which is bloody brilliant because I somehow got landed with a U on that paper. Mind you, at least I didn't get a U overall like some people in my class. I think I would have died. :/

    Anyway, I'm off to find some food.

    Much love,
    Carl

    Finished!

    Add to Memories Tell a Friend
    My room is now all finished!
    3 walls are green, and the wall behind my bed is black. The floorboards are black. I have a new bookshelf thingy and a new desk and mini HIFI system etc.
    I'm pretty damn skippy right now.

    Apart from the fact that school/college/sixth form (whatever ye call it) starts up again a week from today.
    Bah. Humbug.

    Pictures may be forthcoming.

    ...after I finish reading all these slash stories that I found that is. *grins*

    Hokay, I'm gonna have a busy week by the looks of it.
    Because I'm terrible at keeping track of things, I'm writing down some things here so that I remember.
    Tommorow: meet mam at work, go to buy white paint and my birthday present.
    Wednesday: Ash is coming over
    Thursday: AS RESULTS!
    Friday: Interview with Mr.Campbell
    Saturday: something that i've momentarily forgoteen, damnit!
    sunday: my birthday! meet amy, emma, ash, and christine (hopefully. has yet to reply to text. *pokes*) at cinema at 6ish for rush hour 3.

    Right, that's that.
    Also, you should have seen the look on my face when I realised that we can have upto 100 icons on here! I currently have 47. There will probably be more tommorow...later on today.
    It's 01:21 so I'm going to go sleep because I can't havemuch of a lie in tommorow.

    Night all!
