I LOVE HISTORY!!!!

Yer, I don't love it but history is going OK at the moment!!

I am doing history coursework at the moment which I am finding quite interesting as the coursework title is "History Around Us". We are looking at the fourth biggest Roman City which is only basically a few miles away (Down the road), its called Wroxeter and it is owned by the English Heritage.

I have been studying the site carefully in 4 trips that I have had to the site. One with school and three others with my family. We are really happy because we have a year membership with the English Heritage which Mum and Dad got from Andrew and Suzanne for Christmas.

In fact, we went to Wroxeter today- I loved it. We went into the museum and took lots of photos as well!!! I love taking photos!!

I actually did a talk on "Photography" for my English speaking exam which I got an A grade for.

But lets get back to the point, HISTORY!!! I have got my first draft of the first part on my coursework back- it is apparently very good!!!! By the time I have finished it I reckon it will be really good- especially the grammar?!?!? Hehe!!

I am currently working on the second piece of coursework. I am hoping to try and get something handed in on Thursday. Yay!!

So I am finding history OK at the moment and I am determined to get at least a C in history. And I reckon if I keep up the enthusiasm I will do it! I WILL DO IT!!

Are you going to "Scarborough Fair"?

I am doing "Scarborough Fair" for my GCSE Music ensemble. (I have also started singing my own version of "Scarborough Fair"- hehe!!)
I am really happy at the moment because my Dad got me the cd with the song on it! So I can play along to it! (Simon & Garfunkel). Dad went out at 10.30 on Thursday night to Tesco to get me the cd specially, my Mum and Dad were looking in Morrisons because Dad had spotted a Simon & Garfunkel cd! But unfortunately it did not have "Scarborough Fair" on it. So they searched on internet to see who sold the cd. My Mum had also been going around all the charity shops trying to find the cd/tape. The next morning my Mum told me they had managed to get a cd with "Scarborough Fair" on it- I was well pleased!! I played "Scarborough Fair" on Friday morning as I ate my breakfast!! (+ sang but we don't need to go into that!!)

My Mum also got me a cd with a variety of songs from the musicals- which I absolutely adore! (especially track 5 (All I ask of you by Andrew Lloyd- Webber) and track 19 (Time Warp!!!!) !!
I play the cd all the time and sometimes put certain songs on "repeat!!" (because I love them so much!) She also got me a tape of "Cats". In real life I am not the biggest fan ever of cats but I like the songs in the musical- I don't think I've ever watched the show but I have seen the adverts!! Hehe!

Aha, finally succeeded!!!


I have been trying to put this photo up on our blog for weeks.


This is a photo of the cast who were in "Dreamchild". "Dreamchild" was the Christmas production last year. I was in it.


See if you can spot me!! I have a black face and am wearing a black t-shirt. The photo was taken after the "Crazy Cat Scene".
