No, don't be silly, it wasn't a brothel...it wasssssss the Student Union to go and see Lethal Bizzle do a likkle set with his 'mint' and grime time hits. I'm not going to lie..when it got to midnight, they started playing grime and what only can be described as 'house' tracks, I was getting into the mood a little bit. Mainly because from 10pm they were playing tracks that SOOO didn't fit the mood of the night with quite a few belters from the good ol' Whitney...but hey, ho, whatever floats you're boat...

The Return of The G
It's 00:35 in the morning, I've devoured half a bar of Galaxy choccylate that I got for a pound from a local supermarket and listening to Drake (rapping along like I'm his long lost sister). This can only mean one thing...I'M BACK AT UNI.
Yes, yes, this is true, do not be alarmed...I actually made it to second year, but I tell you now after the first few introductory lectures I've had this week, day-um..I'm going to have to work hard, especially since like, yknow, these grades ACTUALLY MATTER. That concept sorta scares me a little, sure last year's grades weren't that bad but still...ohmidays, it's like I'm going to have to give up my day job of being Nelly the second and start becoming Stephen Fry.
Perhaps not, that would be difficult, since he has a brain the same size as my hefty bank balance. LOL JOKES.
CLICK ME FOR CONTINUAL ENJOYMENT.
(seriously, that link will just blow you away...like the weather recently...pft, I swear I control the weather recently. It's like the weather man upstairs sees me taking my time getting ready in the morning and perfecting my hair and then attacking it to its death with hairspray just to step outside and then BOOOOOSH my hair is ruined.) Story of my life. COOL STORY. I'll tell you some more sometime, just bring me a cushion and some chocolate AND a McDonalds voucher and I'm yours...
Oh, is that the time? (I am aware that I told you at the beginning of this post, thank you very muchly for pointing that out...) I must be off buttttt I'm seeing da Lethal Bizzzle 2moz, so ima tell yu all bwt it sumtym ova da wkend. Ch@ den.

Sunshine, lollipops...
Well hasn't this weather been a pleasant surprise? :) wellll I am certainly very grateful for it....kinda. My excitement and pleasure of this weather has been limited since my silly billy mishap. So here's the story...
There I was on a sunny morning being a lovely daughter doing some work in the garden (everybody say aww) I worked from 9 in the morning, yes...9 because in my house, my mum thinks it is reasonable to wake me up at 8 to go and paint a fence. Okay, I don't mind helping out but if it was me who offered to paint the fence I would like some say in the matter :p
Right, so I had my music on, and of course put some suntan lotion on...gotta be prepared ;)..oh how I was wrong. I wore a top like an decent woman and it decided to ride up my back without me realising, crafty dog ain't it? It got to 3pm and my mum decided to make me aware of this situation...it is so burnt on the bottom of my back that gives the colour burgundy a run for its money.
So after that experience of the sun, I'm making sure that my back is covvverrreddd. Take yesterday for example, I wore lotion and got my arms nice and tanned. Its the turn of the pins today ;)
Oh, before I go, here is an amazing picture of one of the pools in a local park by my house. The clouds in the reflection on the water looks that clear that you can turn the photo 360 degrees and it would look the right was round. (Don't cheat and save the photo, I want you to look silly and tilt your head upside down...go on, do it. Now. :D)
Enjoy the sunshineeeeeeee!! xx

You either love it or hate it...
Gosh, doesn't time fly when you're having fun? :O Well I would say that if I had done something exciting in the past week of being inactive. Saying that, I've done quite a lot of stuff, but its not exactly going to be important or exciting for you readers...so here's the deal. If I make it as exciting as it POSSIBLY can without sounding sarcastic, you gonna read the whole thing? Good. Here goes nothing!
I've recently found myself as a rapping reggae (can't think of a 3rd adjective beginning with the letter R) girl! This was when I went through my Music list and found, the legendary and amusing Sean-a Paul! Remember this? Tune and a half. don't you agree?

So what did you think? Were you loving it? I know I sure was, I was busting some pretty fine moves, I'm not gonna lie ;). I know its pretty old and Sean Paul goes on the same ground as Marmite, but nevertheless he's boom-ting.
(right, what's next on my list...)
I've been swatting up on my Geology, since I haven't got a clue what most of it means. I even made a plan and everything so that I could copy it all out in time for the library to claim it back off of me! (Yes, I have been told SEVERAL time that I should just scan/photocopy it and make it much easier for myself...BUT I have logic in my backwards ways...) If I create my own Geology book, not only will I be able to have my own copy of it (for free), but I will also learn it as I go through it and pick up on things I never knew, as well as brushing up on my old skills. Oh, I almost forgot, it means I get to used my colourful FELT TIP PENS. Hell yes, I love the colouring...I mean, that's what Geography is all about isn't it? (I JOKE.)
I also have been running! Got to keep in shape! I do something think that I'm getting better and then, on day's like today when I lose my breathing pattern, it makes me get very annoyed with myself...but saying that, after that happened, it gave me the strength to run that extra bit at a good speed. But apparently that's called Interval Training (fancy that, aint it?) So at least I'm doing something right!
Since I have a million and one things to do on my list, I best get cracking! I'll come back for you once I'm done...promiseeeeeee <3

Oh hey there!
You'll never guess what I've been up to for the past god know's how long...go on, guess?
Nope, you got it wrong! I haven't been riding an elephant with a purple hat on the head...silly people you are :P...As amazingly cool as that seems, I haven't been doing that (...although I'll note that to myself because it seems pretty cool!)
I've only gone to see the Olympic Torch! It was so shiny and bright and glorious. Its got me so excited for the Olympics now...the atmosphere was electric! Everyone, standing up for hours on end to see the torch (and The Wanted)...yeah, that's mainly the reason I went. And just so you know, they were incredible. I've seen them live before, but this time was amazing! The sun was shining (for half of it) and even when it was raining, nobody really cared as we were just all so excited! I even saw Twist and Pulse, y'know them guys from Britain's Got Talent? They were so funny and entertaining! They popped out a few moves...sometimes, when you watch them pop, lock and slide, I think to myself 'hmm, I'd love to be able to do street dance or break dance like that...' It would sooo be a cool thing to do...and it'd improve my coolness. Just Sayin'
Morning Parade
Now, if I want you to take anything from this blog post (not just smiles and a little passage to get you through your day) I'd like you to check out this new band that I've recently found, seen live and LOVED. They're called Morning Parade...here's a little link for you. Click ME! Not only is there music amazing, it really gets you going, especially with the summer approaching! They are also...between me and you girls, pretty dishy! Seriously! Go check them out!
Watch this blog for a Nina News Opinion Report coming up later on today! :)

The dentist, the dress and The Wanted...
Oh hello, there...did you miss me? Probably not :P I have a fair bit to catch you up on, so I hope you've got some nibbles and you're sitting comfortably...
Have I got news for youuuuu! I got ticket to the Olympic Torch Concert....Bit geeky how I got it, mind...but I don't actually care..I'm going to see The Wanted again! (yes, yes, I know.. AGAIN?!) I got a code to fill out and got the ticketssss, so it's gonna be a day of me, my bestie, a picnic, bus journey, photos and musicccc...oh yeah, and the torch :P. To be honest with you, I'm actually excited for the torch to arrive, it's a historical event that won't come around again so I would like to be a part of it. I love the Olympics, it has to be the best sporting event...I don't favour Wimbledon that much because it's just women grunting on the TV, so if you walk in the room and don't look at the screen it can be taken out of context...(if you get me drift ;))
I've been to the dentist! Shock Horror! You wouldn't really think that it's that much of a big deal but O actually hate the dentist...I get myself all psyched up before I'm even in the chair...no scrap that, I get frightened as I'm taking the walks of doom up to the hospital. So...here's a story. There I was walking up allll the stairs to floor 3 (because I don't like lifts, at all. Too scared), I got up to the floor that I needed to get to and got a bit out of breath...there are ALOT of stairs. Waited in the queue of people who were going to face their doom. 'Hey, I have an appointment with Miss Adams at 10am?' So, as I waited in anticipation for her reply so that I could go and sit down in the dreaded waited room. She looked at me. I looked at her...(no, it wasn't like a scene out of a Disney Film...) and she said words that made my heart stop. 'Your appointment;s at 3pm...' I think a little bit of me died at that moment. Not even joking. So I had got up early to find out it was later....*heartbreak*...
So I arrived at the dentist a whole 5 hours later and started to get scared again as I was supposed to be having a gum operation...I waited for what must have been 20 minutes, watching people be seen to before me *annoying*, and they called my name. I got to my dental nurse who has the most amazing eyes in the entire world...*falls in love* Then she hits the bombshell. My teeth aren't being seen to :( But alas, I changed the colour of my brace (not that you really want to know).
But never fear, for the shopping Nina was here! I brought myself a right nice number from a lovely dress shop...yeah it may have been a net curtain dress, but my gosh, I know that I can Gok Wan it up with some heels and some lovely accessories...it'll be the bee's knees! Buttt, it's for a wedding so I gotta make sure that I don't show up the bride at this wedding we are invited to...yeah like that would happen..
This week I have been mighty giddy thanks to someone...so if you're there and reading this....Miss Giddy says hello sheepishly from her quiet giddy corner *cheesey smile and wave*

Aviator shades 'cause she shine so bright...
Well haven't I been a busy bee recently, eh? I've had emotions running everywhere...literally..like when I went for a run the other day around the park (yeah, I'm still keeping up with it, impressive huh?) and it was like an emotional rollercoaster. I'm not the biggest an of rollercoasters at the best of times, so when I was tired, hot and aching, Nina didn't wanna go on the ride! But after a lot of perseverance- and my aunty encouraging me to get over the bloomin' hill- I made it all the way home, for a nice refreshing glass of pop. De-lish.
Been doing my good deed for the day today...unfortunalely, someone nicked the lead off the church's roof..which is very selfish for many reasons, but now bascially, the parish have to raise £40,000 poudns to replace it...sad times :( But ALAS THERE IS A SOLUTION. (So this is where my deed of the day comes in...) There is a charity called 'Kids off the Street' and if we donate 100 bags of unwanted clothes, bags, bedding...you name it, they will pay £500!! So hopefully we can get loads and loads of bags. Me and my mum came up with 5 bags...but as Tesco says.. every little helps, yeah? I also had to depart with my prom dress. :( Yeahhhh it was a long time ago AND I don't fit in it anymore, but I have given it to the charity shop today, if I can't get any use out of it, I'd rather someone else..
In the news today:
Michael Gove, the Education Secretary that hardly anyone likes...including me, has proposed a new idea to the eduction system to the media (I know, another one? He doesn't do it often does he?...-_-) So for those who aren't aware of the change that he wants to the system or if you don't know what it means or whatnot.. Here is a quick summary for you all...hey; I might even learn something as well! - So O-Level's are bascially harder exams...yeah, because that's going to sink down well with teachers and students...as if they aren't hard enough already man :/
I personally don't see anything wrong with the way GCSE's are planned and delivered in the classroom. From my own experience and hearing about everyone else's, it seems to be working fine. Sure, you get people who say 'ooh they're easy now', 'you can cheat on the internet', 'everyone can get the same grade'. Well...and what? No, they aren't easy...something being easy is very subjective and is down to each individual so don't be so silly! No, you can't cheat as there is this little word with consequences and that's called 'plagiarism' and those studying currently or who have done their GCSE's will know this word like a best friend...you can't get anything through this system. And everyone can get the same grade? Not really...
If you do wanna read an article on it rather than my gobbledegook then say the magic words and go here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-18529471
Take care and talk soon! xx

Some advice for y'all
In a passionate and philosophical mood today, so I have pieces of advice, possible a rant or two and my thoughts for you to day...so here it goes.
3. Don't think you're God's gift - as harsh as it sounds, you aren't. What really bugs me if when someone thinks that they're so special than they don't need to hear anyone elses opinion or that they are the only one that matters. When it comes down to it, no one is more special than the next. On a regular basis I come across people who feel that they are God's gift to the world...yeah okay, I guess they are with their own abilities and special talents that they bring not only to themselves but to other people; no one can be as good as them as they are at being themselves. But what I mean is when they think that they are better than you, because 9/10, even if you feel like they are; HERE'S A NEWSFLASH...they aren't. It's people like these that make you feel so small and desperate for their attention..either that or that you have to constantly impress them or go out of your way for them. *But please don't see this as me saying that you're not special..because you are, so so special. No one can ever replace someone else. It's actually physically, mentally and emotionally impossible. Fact.*
4. Don't rush things - you have plenty of time for that later! In an ever changing environment you don't have time to think about what you wanna do, just make those rash decision; it turns out those turn out to be the most important ones you ever make.
I do hope you've learnt from this blog and taken something from it. I may possibly blog in a few hours with happy things...watch this space!!

Can I get you anything to drink, Sir Ghetto?
Okay so I have a lot to fill you in with so I hope that you're all sitting comfortably and I shall begin my story telling...
Well..I got that job that I applied for, it was very good and informative and I also made a fair few friends which is always good :) So my first shift was scheduled for 4.30pm till 2am, yeah I know seems really long and trust me; it was. Tiring doesn't even scratch it...my legs and feet were tired by half 8, and even though my soul may have died a little bit when I checked the time, I played the little trooper and carried on...*cue the Braveheart music*
I did have one incident in which I got the drinks perfectly fine as in I followed procedure by writing down the order, taking the money and going to the bar then going back to my allocated table...but unfortunately somebody decided to get in between my smooth plan and walk into me..causing me to...yup, you guessed it, spill the drinks. But not only did I spill the order, it went down the back of a woman's chair..AND THE BACK OF HER GORGEOUS BALL DRESS. To say that I was mortified is an understatement. I was just apologising for ages knowing that words did nothing. (sad times) But I did replace their drinks, but this made it proper awkward for me to ask if they wanted drinks throughout the night.
----------------------------------- < this is silver lining.
The woman gave me her change from her drink, Yipee my first tip of the night. :)
So after serving drinks for till half 10, we finally got a break..with food :O The jacket potato was welll nice and this weird chicken and onion mix which was hitting the spot too. When we resumed from our break, it started to get nitty gritty since we had to tidy up all the glasses and cups from 90 odd table of 10. Whilst we were doing this, the 1000 guests were dancing around to the staged music playing some decent tunes. I was proper gutted that I couldn't shake ma thangg on the dance floor. Dem guests wouldn't know what hit them...ma moves are as sick as ma llama hooves ;)
Finally I finished my shift at 2am and I was left standing on Broad Street at half 2 with the drunken men staggering past me...not really something I was in the mood for...(not that I'm in the mood for it normally aha) Unfortunately, this Wine Waitress didn't get any more than 4 hours sleep due to the ghetto gangbang that was occurring in my house (brother's sleepover for his birthday). I was tired, grouchy and cranky and you certainly don't want to get on the bad side of my when I'm cranky...honestly, ask anyone.
So, due to lack of sleep, I am currently waiting to crash after my crazy obsession with pork pies, sausage rolls and scotch eggs this afternoon...NOM.
Gonna have to love ya and leave ya I'm afraid guys.
Bizzle fo'shizzle! xxx

losing your voice boys?
For readers with weak stomachs or for those who are easily disturbed, please come back tomorrow...sorry guys :/
*******************
So I learnt a new fact today, sorry if everyone knew this but this information came to my attention this morning...men can get thrush. Okay I know how this comes across; it puts a VERY bad impression of me on the internet. Sooo for the record I didn't give anybody thrush. Thank you.
So for those who didn't know, men can actually, medically get thrush..are you thinking what I was when i recieved the text off my friend (I'm not supporting my innocent case that well am I?) I was like WHAAAT? HOW IS THAT POSSSIBLEE? How did I research you may ask? Ask a friend? A doctor? A book?...None of them but my best friend that is Google. Not gonna lie, it did make me giggle to think that a guy has got oral thrush so I found a fun fact...
Did you know 1 in ten guys who visit a sexual health clinic have it? :O So girls...we can't say that we are the only ones to suffer are we?
So lads...next time you're having trouble swallowing (hehe) check in to your local doctors...you may be surprised!!

Keep your head up, keep your heart strong...
So to start off with here are some tips and tricks that I have picked up throughout the day:
Lesson #1 Taking up your trousers. So I look on the worldy wide web of how to do this since I have short legs, but what I found is that 1) not only did I not have enough time to create a new hem but I also lacked the effort to do this. Here is my solution: Go to your local supermarket or fabric store, request Hemming Tape (Iron On) When you get home, look at the box and read the instructions. It works perfectly fine...actually I have just realised that I have a GCSE in Textiles, why oh why did I not put this into good use? :( Stuupidd me.
Lesson #2 Making Marble Cake. Don't grease the tin with butter and use grease proof paper. Not only is it pointless, but it makes your cake taste really greasy and not as amazing as it should. It looks alright... and I followed the recipe like I normally do there just is something wrong. I'm going to have to dry the cake out. Does that mean make it go stale? Possibly...possibly.
I woke up in such a positive mood today, which is strange since I knew what was lined up for me...a trek to Asda, my interview and my essay. But the theme of me being in a good mood decided to stay with me as here where the outcomes; baking ingredients which means CAKE CAKE I LOOVVEE THE CAKE. I got through to the next stage so tomorrow I have an induction day where I learn the ins and outs of the job and need to pass a small test, once I've done that I can start work straight away *excited* *motivated* *nervous*. Andd I finished my first essay. Today has been a good day :)
I shall say bye bye now, Miss Nina is sleepy and needs her beauty sleep for training tomorrow and needs to pray that the weather will be okay so her fancy smart clothes and hair don't get ruined.
Sleep well my pretties :) xxx
Lesson #1 Taking up your trousers. So I look on the worldy wide web of how to do this since I have short legs, but what I found is that 1) not only did I not have enough time to create a new hem but I also lacked the effort to do this. Here is my solution: Go to your local supermarket or fabric store, request Hemming Tape (Iron On) When you get home, look at the box and read the instructions. It works perfectly fine...actually I have just realised that I have a GCSE in Textiles, why oh why did I not put this into good use? :( Stuupidd me.

I dropped my chicken :(
No, you didn't read that title wrong, i actually did drop my chicken; so here's the story...I text my cousin to ask him to resend me a joke and I was balancing my McDonalds on my lap (yes before you say it, I shouldn't have put it on my lap...whilst on a moving vehicle....anddd since I've been running recently I shouldn't have messed up my diet) but anyway, I reached into my pocket to see his reply and dropped my drink, luckily, this clever girl had the lid on it buttt (wait for it) as I bent over to save my drink, my half eaten burger fell on the floor! :( But what I don't understand is WHYYY WAS IT THE CHICKEN THAT FELL OUT AND NOT THE BUN? It's like the only substantial part of the burger :( I genuinely was proper gutted about this.
So I had a a adventure around town to buy my interview clothes, got them all in the end woohoo! But unfortunately for Little Miss Petite here , hardly any of the smart trousers had my leg length so I will have to turn them up...not that I know how to do that- sad times. To Google :) So look out for my tips and tricks on how to turn up trousers in my next instalment :P

I made a friend today, I know right? me have friends? Damnn. But this is the best part...don't tell anyone because he is shy but *whispers* he isn't real :O Here he is in all of his slightly eroded and grubby glory (just how I like 'em ;) )
I will let you know how my interview goes, so wish me luck :) xxx

Girl's still got it...in more ways than one.
Haven't I been a busy bee? :O
I've managed to fit a lot into the past few days and I must admit, I'm well proud of myself *pats back*. Soo the weather has been well mood-swingy toda...oh what's that sorry? Ooh you want to know why I'm proud of myself? Well why didn't you just ask? ;)
Well on Sunday I managed to actually start my book and was in the company of the cat..ahh isn't she a babe? Well so far my book 'Atonement' is very very good, I haven't yet watched the film but from how much I'm enjoying the book I know that it will be very very good :) I managed to get a good chunk done and now since I can't sleep recently, it has been taking me away to a nice place as I drift away to the land of nod :)
I also went for a run..please please hold your applause...I did a wholleee 4.5 miles. Impressive, huh? I was well chuffed with myself :) Even though I got out of breath and needed to drink a well of water..but nevertheless I did it and I finished, and even made it all the way home. The shower was incredible, the best nip I've had for a while..very satisfying...
Monday's News:
This gal got herself a job interview didn't she? And just when she was beginning to give up, it just proves that you should never give up on things because you don't know what waiting for you :) So I have to invest in black black black. Did somebody say shopping? Oh yes, I think they did...boomtingg!
So after a chippy and half of my essay done (and a lack of enthusiasm within this blog since I'm very tired and on a time schedule) it's time for bed now :)
Will fill you in on my news of tomorrow, got a busy day of going round Brumtown and trying but epically failing at being a tour guide around the good ol' city of Brum.

Allow it? Oi Nahh
From the chavvy title, I feel that you readers know what you're in store for! That's what I certainly thought when I met up with my friend...who, now thanks to them has got 'manz on road' stuck in my head. It gets very annoying when you're trying to have normal conversation with yourself in your head...but wait, who talks to themselves? WELL I believe that everyone does, even if they don't admit it. The proof really starts here doesn't it? I mean, I'm talking to a blogpost, but if no one actually reads it then I'm talking to myself. (Try figure that one out, I confused myself a bit there too so don't worry...simple minds...)
So back to 'allowin' it', I finally got round to looking for dresses for my second cousin's wedding...I must say there are some amazing dresses out there! A bit beyond my price range but I reckon that if i remember what the style is, good ol' Primarni will have a replica of my dress ;)
Apart from many dresses that I wanted (but got told they didn't look that good...I now bring my attention to the net curtain dress. I'm not sure how I feel about these dresses, but I see the point that I'd look like an opposing advert to Venetian blinds...) I..well me and my friend found an amazingly, riveting magazine that everyone should own...especially cat owners.
So 'what's wrong with Cats World?' I hear you ask? Nothing, nothing at all...I personally think cats are wonderful. It's the Issue 411 that I have an 'issue' with...(see what I did there? ;)) WHY HAS THERE BEEN 411 ISSUES?!?!? WHAT COULD POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED IN SUCH A BULKY MAGAZINE. These are the question in life that I will never understand...
So, before I go, here's a quick wordsy quiz of words I learnt today:
What is a :
a)sythe
b)ampersand?
Good Luckkk

Euro 2012 and Puppet Shows; a theme of juxtaposition...
So as you all are aware (due to social network sites, newspapers and word of mouth) the Euro 2012 funfair has finally landed onto our mind..and into the goal already for the first two matches. I always enjoy this time of year for many many reasons. Those who say that they don't like football get sucked into the fun with family draws, patriotism and the excuse for a party...who could resist?
But despite this being their first time at the Euro's they sure know how to make it go off with a bang (a bit like everyone's first time though, right?)... a big ol' controversial bang with racism. With their 'right wing' fans, not only causing problems in the excitement coming up to Euro's but also the moments before the opening ceremony.. To be honest, I find it very silly, surely with all the multi cultural societies we have in every country we should all be happy and not let a silly thing like a football start a moral panic across the nation.
So, to get in the spirit of things (apart from flags and shades and whatnot) I have decided to learn some facts about the Euro 2012, so I thought that I would let you in on my findings :)
It seems that Ukraine are finally joining the band wagon with their debut at the this Euro Championship.
I do fancy England's chances though, prior to them playing their first game, I do think that we can possibly get to the semi finals and kick some foregein ass...okay Nina that's hypocritical *refers to the previous paragraph*. See this is what I mean, we are all arrogant in our ways when football is concerned.
You will never guess what I have done today, go on guess...performed by own little puppet show with my old teddies! Remember this? I felt like such a kid again, I know I act like one on a daily basis, but still I got to share it with someone speciallll :)
Before I go, I have explanations to the weather for all you weather fans out there! (I know you're out there so don't hide and don't deny it!) http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/features/18374637
Luvyalotslikejellytots.
and what exactly have I learnt?
UPDATE ON LAPTOP PROBLEM:
Hoooooray! I think I've fixed the sound card. So what did I do to fix it? Did I update my driver software? Replace the RealTek Audio Manager? No, no I didn't. I went through my trusty instinct and turned it on this morning to find that it was fixed all my its clever self :) Well at least I think it is fixed...by this I mean, I sat and spoke to myself in front of the webcam and it recorded it perfectly fine when I played it back. Who needs IT then, eh? Just instinct and a quick shake of the laptop and all is well :)
In other news, I FINALLY finished tidying under my bed and all the other tat that I had lying around creating dust. I feel a lot better after doing this; an organised room leads to an organised mind! Here are my findings: a) Paints- so that I can finish off my painting, b) Uni books- so that Nina can finish off her retake..whichhh the lazy girl hasn't got round to doing yet *note to self*and c) Pad of paper - so that I can draw many Ukulele's *PLUG ALERT*
(I now address you to Twitter...@LuketheUke1)
What I haven't mentioned is that I once again left my umbrella in my dad's car on my venture to the shops...despite him coming home and parking the car directly outside the house. Yes, yes, I know what you're thinking...She just NEVER learns. It's true though, I'm one of those people who never learns from my mistakes and can preach to people about advice yet never follow any myself! *sigh*
Back to the raining situation, the one thing that annoyed me is that every time that I went into a shop it stopped and when I walked outside it started raining again...but this time I didn't even have my phone orrrr my music. This is a very bad thing to do. I advice you...nay, I URGE you never to leave the house without some form of contact or entertainment or expect boredom to take over.
Off to type some more... (well actually, that's a lie..)actually start planning my retake while being in the comfort of my Galaxy Cookie Crumble and 55p can of Dr Pepper...I mean, what's the worst that could happen?

ICT Lesson #1
Not being clever enough to do the complete GCSE of ICT has come as a bit of a blow at the moment since my sound card has decided to not work! Very frustrating when you're talking to someone via webchat, and then having to Google loads of geeky information that is clearly beyond your intelligence. It's a good job I have a few things:
1) A IT (geeky) guy friend who is trying to help...I say trying like I'm ungrateful! I'm not though, he's helping me a lot! (Thanks Pinky!)
2) Glasses...to make me look clever and look like I know what I'm reading...(who am I kidding?!)
3) A possible uncle I can load my laptop off to tomorrow.
4) An annoying voice...I bet its good for the person I am talking to that I have stopped talking now, bloody accent...*curses*
I'll let you know how it goes, and maybe include some intellectual information about the processes of a computer and internal devices and what not (seee, reading the Windows Help section does help...tomorrow I'm going to be a whizz!)
Goodbye ICT fans!

oh rain rain, go away...
Do me a favour? Imagine a little poodle, with groomed hair and a bow in-between its little ears. Then imagine the weather that we have been unfortunately blessed with...put them together, and what do you get? Me. It serves me right for leaving my lovely £1 umbrolly (umbrella to you normal folk) in the back of my dad's car though...If this wasn't bad enough, I also had a job interview today. YIPEE! It's clear that the big man in the sky has something in for me; I don't know why though!

So there in the middle of town stood a sad, wet and 'wanting to go home' Nina, walking around with her music on when lo and behold she walks past a food place..(she was also hungry too) but I knew that I couldn't go in without popping to the Laddiess Room first. When I got there I looked at my hair...oh my goodness...my hair, I don't even think it deserves to be called that. The messed up toilet brush that appeared to the sticking out of my head made me go all bug eyed in the mirror as I deciphered how to correct it. Seemed like some weirdass version of Mission Impossible: Hair Gone Wild.
But Mrs Nina Cruise got through it and strutted her stuff back to food heaven *thunder thighs alert.* For all those who are wondering; it tasted DE-LISH! (or pukka...depends on where you're from, your class and your street rep') It certainly took away the blues of the rain. Don't get me wrong, I love the rain, watching it splatter against my window...I'm just not a hugeee fan when I'm standing in it waiting for a bus...which I ran for...AND MISSED by the way. Not only was I gutted that I in fact missed this bus..but the bus that I got on, had the most miserable and moody old bus driver I have ever met. He was rude, too. Not only to me, but to this old woman! What a freak?! He was like 'You getting off or what? You didn't press the button; this is a bus you know!' I actually did make this face >> :O The manners of some people these days! Pfft!
*breathe Nina breathe*
So I'm back home, all dry and clean (with controlled hair) and haribo, perfectomondo! Time for hot chocolate, drawing little cartoons, reading and relaxing. What will tomorrow bring? I'll let you know ;-)
Tarrra! xox

Time, and how to waste it...
Dear World....
So today’s been
a bit weird hasn’t it? Waking up to a full house? Not my cup of tea...talking
about that, I didn’t even get one...oh but wait there, I never am! There seems
to be some idea in my house that since I’m an ‘Independent Woman’ (or so I call
myself) I’m able to do things for myself since adjusting. Its times like these
that you regret what you say to your parents isn’t it?
For someone who
does nothing all day, I sure do get a lot done. Through my hours of being at
town with the family, I got freeee food, a nice look around the clothes and ...ooh
actually before I forget, I got a right smooth text while I was in the shop and
I looked like a fool, it was one of those that make you go ‘Ooh hehe *blushes*’
and then you have to look around the shop to see if anyone else was looking and
remember where you are and put on your solid poker face (whilst acting G since
you’re in a chavvy shop..gotta regain your reputation).
Did you see the
rain? Well Nina, well done...you’re talking to the world and you’re asking if
it has seen the rain. Got to admit, it
was an amazing thunderstorm, the clouds were heavy, rain was pouring and the sky
was roaring aloud like a biggg lion! To sit and watch it from my window was
amazing, but can we keep the thunderstorms to a minimum please? Cheers J
Before I close
this page I really hope that my friend fixes his phone...or in other words,
gets one? It’s all cool messaging and stuff but it’s not the same...says the
one who’s typing her little heart away to you.
This is Nina Dieno reporting for
her life on the world wide web. xxx
