Baking Moments.

This week has been so busy that this afternoon I decided I was going to bake something for dessert. It was a quite random thought and I didn't think it would happen because sometimes when people have amazing ideas they don't happen. I was inspired by the weekly cooking programmes on television and thought that I could do just as good or better than the chefs on television.
I made some chocolate chip cookies which were absolutely delicious. Photos to follow.
I used belgium chocolate which is the best chocolate in the world! Don't you think?
Anyhow I shall continue having "baking moments" and update you all on my amazing products.

London

Well I've had a busy week! I went to London for two days!
I did so much. On the first day we went to the British Library which was really cool as we saw manuscripts from musicians like Wagner. It was amazing! We also saw the magna carta with the seal which was sealed by King John. The most memorable things on display were the beatles original song lyrics written by themselves on scraps of paper (A hard days night)and a handwritten play written by Shakespeare. I felt so priviliged. We stayed in a backpackers' hostel! We went to Oxford Street, Covent Garden and Leicester Square. It was great! We saw "Cabaret" starring Julian Clary and Amy Nuttall (Emmerdale). On the Wednesday we went on the tube and the millenium bridge. We also went to the Globe Theatre and The Tate Modern to see the famous earthquake crack thing. We saw: the London Eye; St.Paul's Cathedral; the Webley Stadium from a distance;

Last Sunday

Last Sunday we went to Haughmond Abbey near Shrewsbury. Here are some photos that we took.




It was a nice afternoon out!

I am really enjoying college! Its really fun but you get a fair bit of work to do! Haha!

Jonathan went away with the Boys Brigade over the weekend which I think he enjoyed!
I however had a cold and sore throat all weekend however we went to Coalport China Museum in Ironbridge this afternoon which was quite fun as we painted on paper plates! I love painting!

First Day at New College

It was my first day at New College today!
It was really fun and I can't wait for tomorrow!
I met my new form tutor who is my theatre studies teacher which is really good.
I've learnt loads of new names and got my New College ID card which is funny because I look really white faced!
I had a good theatre studies lesson it was really funny and exciting however we did get set homework but it was alright as we got to pick a film and analyse it from an audience member's point of view. I chose "Hairspray" as its the best film ever!

A Life Without GCSE's....

It's great knowing you don't have to worry about what you are going to get or that you have to take a GCSE exam.

So I have been celebrating!

We went out last night for a meal and tomorrow I am going shopping with my mum and Jonathan in Shrewsbury! Can't wait!

Today we went to Weston Park!! Jonathan's friend came with us. It was great- I played on the park!!!!! Wooooo! I love that park! Its the best ever!

Pictures to follow.....

Oh I am so happy!

Busy Weekend

Yesterday we went to Much Wenlock Priory. It was a great day out in a nice setting.Here are a few photos of our visit to the priory.It was really hot and sunny!




We also went to the Much Wenlock Museum.




We didn't realise that the Much Wenlock olympic games were being held!




Last night... Mum, Jonathan and I went to the Oakengates theatre to watch a production of "Annie". It was really good! The best bit for me was when the dog kept wanting to run backstage! Haha!

Today.. its really really wet!! It has been pouring with rain virtually all day so far!

I hope its nice and sunny tomorrow!

Gooseberries!

This afternoon I have been busy picking gooseberries off out two gooseberry bushes in the back garden. Jonathan helped me a bit after he returned from his busy day at school!
We managed to pick 2 large bowls full of gooseberries- which is an awful lot.
I found it quite fun in the garden picking gooseberries however I did come across a few thorns and ouches!
Two birds provided entertainment as well, even though they kept flying away then coming back!
Tomorrow I am going to tackle cutting the grass with my Dad!
Wow- I do have green fingers! Haha!
I am a mini gardener!!

Before the Prom.......

Tonight I have my school prom.... here is a photo of me before the prom!




I shall take lots of photos tonight and put them on later!

We played a traditional game of hoopla.

What a great afternoon out and what's even better we didn't have to use a TARDIS!!

Some pictures from Father's Day

Here are some pictures that we took on Father's day.
We went to a museum in Ironbridge called "Enginuity".





Ever wondered how good my dad was at multitasking- looking and concentrating?
Here is the evidence...




We attempted to build a bridge out of soft blocks... did we succeed?








Not quite, but at least we had fun!


We made wind energy using our feet!! How cool is that!?





Jonathan giving Dad a present............










Last week was very busy indeed!

♥ Birthday Girly! ♥

Yay! I'm 16, my birthday was great!

Here are a few pictures of my presents and cards....








I partied with my friends Odell and Sammy on Friday.



It was great!

On my birthday it started off with a music theory exam which was alright! Then we partied as a family! Which was really fun!











Then I went to a gigantic world sleepover which was great fun, I made some new friends and made a really cool thing, which I shall have to take a picture of. I use it as a coaster because its ideal!

I want to say a great big thank you to my wonderful Grandma and Grandad Thompson who bought me a new watch! I love this watch, its very practical and glamorous!



Voila- I am 16!

I went shopping with a few friends on Wednesday and bought a new top!

One Week Gone.........

One week gone of exams!
Phew, its been a very busy week indeed!!
I had my first Hitory exam this afternoon- I think I did well!
I think I deserve a nice weekend- tired!!!

WOW! WOW! WOW!

Today has been great!!!!
This morning however started off OK when I had an English Language exam! I wrote 8 pages, my hand after the exam was aching though!
After the exam I received my grade 2 Music Theatre certificate. I got 76% which was a merit.
So I was over the moon!

This afternoon my mum told me that I had got 2nd prize in a national flower arranging competition! I did not expect it at all! I said ,"WOW!"
A picture of my work of art is somewhere below this blog, in a previous post!

Last night at Girls Brigade' I was pleased with myself because I was assessed for my Intermediate Young Leaders. I passed with flying colours! I taught the girls a song which I then taught them to do in a three part round! Impressive or what!

I am happy!

*I intend to keep happy and prove everyone else wrong!*

♥This Weekend! ♥

This weekend has been really fun!

On Friday we had an early birthday party for Grandad Thompson in the caravan.



Happy Birthday for tomorrow Grandad!!


Then yesterday we travelled up to Sheffield to see Brian, Chloe, Ruby and Coralie!










We went to the park and had tea. I ♥ pink jelly!!!!

Today we went to Yorkshire Sculpture Park, we saw many of Andy Goldsworthy's sculptures. Here are a few pictures....




Here's Brian.....




This is an Andy Goldsworthy sculpture. It looks really simple yet it is far from simple when you look at it properly. It must take a long time to make such a sculpture!




This is Jonathan, Coralie and I looking at one sculpture.



Its been a great weekend!!!!
