Scream and Shout by Dirty Penny (Take it Sleazy, 2007)
Been a busy week for me, for once! Last week was full of cleaning up the house in Runcorn, moving furniture and peeling carpet from the floor of the rooms. So, I officilly left Runcorn on the 8th, 11 days ago. Not much has changed in my daily routine, apart from now I get up at the earlier time of 1pm instead of 2 or 3. I never want to move furniture again, so hopefully the house here in Rotherham is going to stay the same now.
I had to go to the doctors' a few days ago, having just 'signed up' to that practise, I had to go to see a nurse who took my height, weight and asked me whether I smoked, exercised regularly etc etc. The waiting room was completely empty! In Runcorn, it's always completely packed.
I went to Blackpool on Friday. I've already been once this year, in May, so I wasn't too fussed about being there. Even though Blackpool Pleasure Beach (the fair) is my 2nd place to be, right after Liverpool town centre. Anyway, I went on: - Big Dipper x3 - Rollercoaster x2 - Grand National x2 - Valhalla - Monorail - Rockets - Steeplechase


I'm going back to Runcorn on Thursday, to get my GCSE results from school. Hopefully I've got higher than a C on most subjects, but right now I don't think I care about it. I enroll in college next Thursday, then college starts a couple of weeks afterwards. Thank god this holiday is almost over!
I might not update for another few days - I'm working on the new domain. Watch this space!

NOTE: I'm going on a quick open hiatus, because I'm not quite finished with moving in just yet. It's the 12th of August right now. And besides, the internet isn't set up on my computer, I'm using my step-dad's right now! END OF NOTE

I finally had my college interview on Thursday afternoon! It was an absolutely horrible day, weather-wise: complete torrential rain. We walked from the house, to the college, in the pouring rain. Atleast it was only for like ten to fifteen minutes - but we had no coats or umbrellas, just hip-length jackets. So yeah, Bexx and I were completely soaked. The receptionist gave me a strange look, and when we went to the toilets to dry ourselves off, I noticed that my make-up had ran down my face! Pretty embarassing. We went upstairs in a lift, then, as directed, to a room upstairs that was like an open plan office. "You're so Vain" by Carly Simon was on the radio, hence the blog title lol. I knew what song it was straight away - we'll forget that Faster Pussycat covered it in 1991 lol. The interview was a complete breeze. Just telling the deputy-principal what subjects I'm interested in, my race, contact information and that, no, I wouldn't like to be in the sports representative team (I'm too lazy for sports!). I told her I was grade 5 guitar, but truth be told, I have no idea what grade I'm at. My GCSE piece was Grade 5, and I could play that...so I must be at Grade 5. I was quite chatty and not the least bit shy! I'm proud of that. I'm going to take this new start in Rotherham and make the most of it.
I got back from Rotherham earlier today, so we spent 5 days there. All the time I was wishing I was back here in Runcorn. That's not good seeing as I'm going to be moving to Rotherham before the 8th. I'll have to learn how to deal with the homesickness. But if it's anything like being love sick, I'm stuck.
I'm not going to be renewing this domain name, instead I'm going to be buying one for my L.A. Guns fansite. This site will still be around, but just as a subdomain to my fanlisting (which will be my main site aswell as this one!).

Falling Rain by CRASHDÏET (The Unattractive Revolution, 2007)
I got a reply from the college! Like, finally. We were about to get back in contact with them aswell, which is weird: are they mind readers? So, I've got an interview with them on Thursday at 3PM, which means I'm going to Rotherham on Wednesday. It's only a fifteen minute interview asking about interests, courses and such. One problem. The letter says: "You should bring this letter, your latest School Report and your Record of Achievement/Progress File with you along with any photocopies of any GCSE qualifications already achieved." Stupid old me has binned most of the things on the list! Hopefully they'll understand, seeing as I've had to clear my house out for the move, and I didn't think about keeping anything like that. I think the Record of Achievement is all the reward certificates I've recieved in highschool. Thing is, I never kept my certificates. Well, I've got my 100% attendance one from Year 7 - that's from Sept '03 - June '04 by the way, so really out of date. I can't even go into school to get my grade card - it's the school holidays! If only I'd been able to sort this out ages ago.
I have to get up early tomorrow. My Nana is around again, to "sort out the room", which means even more things are going to be binned! I think we'll be moving all the furniture to take up the carpet. Well, carpets. For some reason we have a pink carpet underneath the blue one (toplayer). That should be fun. I hope you can sense the sarcasm in my last sentence.
I did spend all weekend chilling out. We watched The Shining, recorded from TV (even though we've got a copy on DVD), which has more scenes than the DVD copy. Jack Nicholson still creeps me out. Well, he scares me in Anger Management, which is a comedy yet alone a psychological-thriller like The Shining! I still don't like the movie better than the book. Like, with the movie, what's the point of Dick coming all the way back from Florida just to get killed? Oh, it's not a big part of the story, but some of you might not have seen it yet. Sorry.
It's still absolutely boiling here. It's almost 10PM as I'm typing this, the sun has set, and I'm still baking hot! I can't stand the heat. It leaves me so tired and frustrated I can't do much more than sit down all day. And I like it when I'm hyperactive!
This domain runs out in August, so I'm thinking about things. Like I don't think I'll be keeping the name Long Time Dead. It sounds pretty dark, and I'm not like that (anymore haha), even if it doesn't mean literally dead... So I'm thinking of new names. We shall see though.
So, I'm going to quit this for now. It's boiling, Big brother is going to be on soon (does anyone else want to slap Luke like I do? He won't shut up!).
