Pretties

Just though I'd pop up a few choice pictures from prom. Altnhough I love my canon EOS film camera, If I'm drinking I can't handle manual focus, so always get a disposable, which never lets me down. So here are some pretties!

Ha haa haaaaaa

Having a full on Smiths phase at the moment. But that video just made me laugh, because I noticed the gross amount that a person i know has copied Morrissey's mannerisms.
Still, not my favourite Smiths song, that's got to be Bigmouth or There is a light that never goes out.
Still, I don't believe in a Smiths reunion, or even goingt o be Morrissey doing all the songs on his solo tour. A mon avis the smiths were only truly great during their heyday.

Oh my gosh how I wish I'd been around to seen them at their best. Unfortunatley my Dad was around 11, and my Mother around 12 during their finest moments, so I don't even have second hand live smiths experience.
My Nonnie did go see Whitesnake though...

Too true.

Tenessee Williams cupcake, one of many I made for my last lit class. It tastes of working class strife and faded southern belles.

End of an era

Although I am mainly posting on my long neglected blog due to my facebook having been taken from me during the final run up to my alevels, I certainly have missed a bit of blogspot.
Tomorrow I leave school FOREVER. It's an incredibly scary feeling. I've only been at my current school for the past two years, but it's more the structure that I think I will miss, as well as the social life on tap, scheduled times to work, rest and play AND my Kate Moss of an English Literature teacher.
A few weeks ago I had my end of year 13 prom, and it's up there with the funnest nights of my life. It was epic. I completely overdid myself, as I will at even the slightest sniff of 'formal' having a huge hairdo done by my amazing redheaded Glaswegian acquaintance April. My dress was a relative cheapie from Oasis, but I've always hankered after a Mad Men style know-your-assets dress. I loved it, especially going to The Porter, a pretty low key super bohemian pub in it. I also amazed myself by drinking just about everything in sight, and remaining borderline decent, no unladylike drunken behaviour to report! Oddly prior to five months of terrible nights out, absolutley no alcohol touching my lips, I was the worst lightweight in existence, but now, I'd say I have a reasonable threshold for alcohol. Which I'm glad of. Basically, after prom, I realised that nights out with teachers are far better than I good of envisaged. I also learnt that wearing a wonderbra gives me something of a ludicrous chest. I'm yet to decide whether this is good or not.
Despite the absolutley hellish years I spent at an all girls private school, I've actually quite enjoyed school, as a whole. Despite my numerous early school catfights, and later school love triangles, school has been great. Really great. Really, leaving school symbolises the beggining of all the world changing events to come. After leaving school it means alevels are soon, and subsequent university, which means leaving my country house and loving West country mother and sarcastic father and odd little brothers. So odd. I know change is good, and the likelihood is I'll have a great time, but the prospect is awful. Awful.
So, last day of school tomorrow! Bring it!
