Back to school! Can people see God in me?

I went to hairdressing school today! It was really good. All the people in my class are surprisingly nice. There are about 12 of us so thats really cool.
I got up this morning a complete bundle of nerves because I had no idea what was going to happen and what it was going to be like. To add to this I have a horrorific cough and cold! I didn't wanna miss the 1st day so I rolled out of bed and went! When I thought about going back to school these things came to mind....
  • Bullying (ok I was bullied alot!)
  • Homework
  • Nasty Teachers
  • Complete and utter stupid people who don't listen! I.E - CHAVS!!!!
  • Hot stuffy class rooms
  • Hands up whenever you ask a question
I was right about alot of these things especially CHAVS! There were a couple there but hey hoe they seem to be everywhere. My teacher is really nice though so it's all good!
It was so wierd being back in a classroom. I felt a tad old though because the majority of the class is 16-17 there is one other 19 year old and one 22 year old which im very happy about.
I had one strange moment. It was strange because one girl said to me that there was something different about me. I was like umm.... what....?...excuse me! Then she said not in a bad way a good way. She said I had a really good vibe and that I wasn't like everyone else. Was God shining through me in a way that someone could just sense it?

Happy birthday to ME!!!!!!

Yes folks today is my 19th brthday! Do i feel any different?........errrmm...not not really. Today was practically just like any other day just with a few pressies thrown in. I got up, went to work, ate cake and came home again. I did go out for a meal but yeh.. that was it unfortunatly. It was just like any other day.
I miss being a kid when you get really excited about birthdays and have a party! I used to love my birthdays and always look forward to blowing out the candles and making a wish and all that 'kids' stuff. Birthdays used to be magical just like Christmas! I guess thats one of the negative points of getting older. Ah well i did have a nice day i just wish i could have shared it with my friends.
I still can't believe Im 19! Its a wierd age. 18 is special and 20 is kinda different because then you're no longer a teenager. 19's just inbetween. Ah well it's my last year of being a teenager so i suppose i'd better embrace my youth before it slips through my fingers! I never thought this is where I would be at 19 but i guess life is never what you expect it to be. I just guess I'm really blessed. Last night at songsters there was a reading it went something like this:
If you've always got spare change in your pocket - you're blessed
If you wake up every morning inside a house - you're blessed
If you have health - you're blessed
It listed all these different things and I had them all. It just made me realise how incredibly selfish I can be and how insignificant some of the problems I have day by day are. Im so lucky to have been blessed with the sourounds I was brought up around and family and friends that I have! Sometimes we just forget how lucky we are. I guess in some ways I'm very lucky to of reached my 19th birthaday and the 'normal day' that I had.

SUMMER SCHOOL!!!!

I went to Straight Ahead practise on Monday and it made me really sad. Miss Charlotte Still was missing. She's gone travelling and it was so wierd her not being there! The kind of leads the sohpranos and it was wierd singing without her. Me and AJ were joking around when we were being given a piece of music and told we had 2 share 1 between 2 and I said in a highly dramatic voice (you know the normal going ons if your Kat Swan) "Oh I miss Charlotte I'd be sharing with her if she were here" and then pretended to cry into AJ's shoulder. Then I actually shed a couple of tears! It was quite sad! Charlotte you are missed lots!!! COME BACK SOON!!! I hope she comes to summer school if she doesn't Im gonna hav 2 go to Hadleigh and drag her there!
I sent off my summer school form last week! I can't believe its that time of year again! I can't wait! It's one of my favourite times of year! Last year's was excellent and I'm really looking forward to doing it all over again. Last year was one of my hardest and summer school always lifts me up because it makes me realise there are young people who feel exactly the same as I do. I love all my friends from summer school so much and want them to know it! You guys rock lots n lots and thanx for just being!
Its amazing how time flys by so quickly. This time last year I was in college doing my A-Levels and getting really excited about my birthday (which is in 5 days!). I was sending off my ucas form so worried about getting into university. I wonder where I will be next year! Hopefully I will have nearly completed a years worth of hair dressing college!
Sooner than I know it it will be the summer time and I will be packing my bags and travelling all of 2 miles to get to Essex uni and be around all my favourite people again! It's gonna be a bit of a rush coz im going to TMS which is the week before and ends on Saturday 4th August and Summer School starts on Sunday 5th August! Oh and speaking of summer school I wonder when we will be getting the CD Roms!? If anyone knows anything let me know soon!!
