'Sizzling Cinnamon'

Hello hello,

It's been a while eh? Apologies, being back at school is BUSY.

(Still need to buy a dictionary - someone please remind me).

Now, I'd like to start with a friend of mine. Miss-Horlicks. We attempted to make a casserole, which thankfully turned out beautifully. The process however, was hilarious. Firstly, upon receiving the carrots that had been chopped up and were about to be added to our dish by myself, I realised that Miss-Horlicks did not know that carrots had to be peeled beforehand. Also, as I was making the mash (mixture of normal and sweet potato - LUSH!) I turned around to see that Miss Horlicks was adding gravy to the casserole. This would have been fine. But instead of mixing the gravy granules to hot water first....... she added the water to our dish and sprinkled the granules on top, giving it all a poke here and there so it would 'mix in'. REALLY? I think her reaction when I asked her what she was doing, and explained the right way was the most amusing. Too funny. Still, as I said, it turned out pretty tasty.

This already hilarious evening then became even funnier when we played Jelly-Bean Russian Roulette. All was going well until I chose what seemed to be a lovely pink one (and therefore in my mind could only be 'Strawberry Sundae' or the like). OH. NO. It was 'Sizzling Cinnamon'!!!!! Sizzlingly rank more like. That is one of the only tastes I hate with a passion (alongside ginger). As soon as I bit into it, I'm ashamed to say I spat it right back out - with force. I challenge anyone to eat a 'Sizzling Cinnamon' Jelly-Bean. Ew. this was then followed by what I thought was 'Chocolate Pudding' which was unfortunately 'Root Beer'. Deceiving. Why on earth is root bear a Jelly-Bean flavour. Why? Disgusting. I had to eat a lot of 'Buttered Popcorn' and 'Toasted Marshmallow' to get over it.

I went out on the Saturday just gone (first night out since New Year) and literally danced the night away. There was no stopping me. Busting a move here there and everywhere, turns, popping - you name it, I probably did tried it. It is a definite, and most probable, possibility that I looked like a complete idiot. But I did, and do not, care one little bit. Thank you to Miss-Lolly-Belle, Miss-Horlicks, Miss-Bin-Lid and Miss-Martini for one of the best nights ever. :)

The detox... I lost four pounds... And have probably put it all back on with the amount of alcohol I consumed this weekend. Not to mention the curry. Ah well. Curves all the way I say.

Also just wanted to say... I cannot stand some drivers. How hard is it to indicate at a junction? EH? How hard is it to give way when you're supposed to? EH? Just drive properly!!! Road rage to the max.

My achievement for the week - not getting hit by the kid in Samba band. Honestly, he proper goes for it. The stick he uses has wood chips flying off at all angles. It's a mission to dodge the bits of wood coming at you whilst playing your part. We've had to get the technology teachers to make us some more. No point buying them, they'll be demolished in a week!

So that's just a few bits. Not really that interesting. Speak soon,
