I am so so frustrated with my school.
They have told me TODAY that my whole UCAS application has to be paid and sent by Monday morning at 9:15. Today is Friday. That means I have tonight, tomorrow and Sunday to do it.
HOWEVER
1) I still haven't got 5 choices, I've only been to 2 open days.
2) My form teacher still hasn't read my personal statement, so obviously I have had no feedback. Baring in mind I gave him my personal statement at least 3 months ago!!
3) I'm working all fricken weekend.
My school is an absolute joke. Why tell us today? How annoying and frustrating.
ARGH STRESS!

New hair!?
Phoebe-Lettice Thompson from Made In Chelsea.
I absolutely love Phoebe's look. I love her look, its edgy and exciting and very out there. Shes so confident with what she wears. I wish I was more like that, a bit more confident and out there with the clothes I wear. This is the way I am going to have my hair cut next. My best friend is a hairdresser and I think I'm willing to let her do this. I'm scared but oh well, I really really like the short hair look.
and look at those sunglasses! wow!

WHAT DO I DO
This year i've got some decisions to make, some pretty big ones regarding University.
My head is in a merhhghwe over it all. (I know thats not a word, but thats how i feel OK?)
I am split in two.
ONE HALF.
'I really want to stay round here and go to a local university, my family are here, my friends are here, my boyfriend is here, my job is here, everything i know and everything im comfortable with is here in this city. Why would i move? There are good uni's right on the doorstep offering the course i want to do. Ill come home and have a cooked dinner for me everynight and my room and all my things i've always had. Im quite content in my little bubble here, with everything just where i need it. Why move? Its hassle, its scary, its a big thing.'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OTHER HALF.
'I can't wait to get away, away from all the drama here. Sure i'll miss my family, and my boyfriend but i can come home and visit, they can come see me and visit. I can't wait to move away, start a fresh. No drama following me. I get to meet new people, and learn about a completely new city. I get to experience life on my own, fend for myself, cook for myself. Think how many skills i will gain. How many new people will impact my life. Its so exciting, its a crazy thing to think this time next year i could be living in London, Manchester, Liverpool, Scotland. The world is my oyster. There are so many opportunities out there for me, as i'm young i feel i should grab those opportunities, every single one of them. Uni being the first thing to open the doors for me.'

TWIL #Week1
This Week I'm Loving!
This pink nail varnish, limited addition at Barry M.
The colour is lovely, very bright and stands out. I love it as it allows my nails to stand out against my sixth form uniform (which is office wear). This colour is a definite must for me over the winter, as it lets me hold on to summer colours in the dull and dim English weather!

London Fashion Weekend!
On the 21st September me and my girls went to Vodafone's London Fashion Weekend at Somerset House. We had a fabalooo day, I didn't buy anything because everything was very expensive haha. But all lovely, lovely clothes.
We went to the show at 3:00 and qued 40 minutes prior to the opening of the doors in order to get good seats haha! It worked we were on the second row!
After the show we went to the Lounge area where fashion journalist Hilary Alexander was doing a talk and question/answer session on her job and her experiences. Which I found amazing!
What I wore:
Patterned leggings coloured blue and black which are from Primark, a white crop top from Topshop, a pink patterned blazer from Warehouse in Debenhams, I wore my white converse on my feet and carried all my stuff round in a black bag with a snake skin pattern each side which is from Clarks.
Me and my friends before going into the show!
Me outside whilst eating lunch, I had waffles and homemade blueberry jam with a cup of tea.
It was delicous!

Do i want to go to Uni????
Very stressed at the moment as were currently in the process of applying for UCAS and sorting out our options for uni.
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO!
I'm not even sure what i want to study, let alone where i'd like to go to study it.
So what do I do?
Do I not go?
Do I apply?
Ahhhh to many things to think about.
I'm torn between Journalism/English/Media courses and Health and Social Care courses, so social work, nursing etc.
I am so confused.
I think I will end up taking a year out while I figure it out, but what do I do in the meantime?
My school have literally offered us no help with these decisions.
If anybody has any advice they wish to give me, I would be so grateful!!
