You're mind goes blank when you haven't written a blog in so long; hard to focus. Everything I write is always so long and tedious so, where do I start?
Well, firstly I actually just had to count on my fingers what month September was, Sarah, it's the ninth month; I knew that. I haven't written a blog since 12th July, wow, how time flies ! honestly it does, it all just seems a blur. What have I been doing with my time?! That question wasn't rhetorical, I need an answer :)
The beginning is usually a good place to start, unless you're like me and read the ending of a book first to find out what happens...I have no idea why I do that! *achem* any way, moving swiftly on...
The Beginning. Instead of boring you with the miniscule details of my life, I shall focus on the better parts or rather, the parts I actually remember. So, since we last spoke, or shall I say, the last time you read the ins and outs of my life, I have been up to some very amazing things and some life changing events have occurred.
I got a place in my first choice university, so YAY ME. Very excited. Although, I wish I could be doing drama or musical theatre, or film studies, or creative events, ANYTHING BUT ICT. I'm very in to the 'arts' but could rejected from doing them because I didn't have enough UCAS 'points' which sucks, dearly, but you know, I shall look on the brighter side of things, I can always join the drama club, choir and things right? I need to do drama somehow, it's my lifeee. By the way, ICT is computing incase you didn't know, yea, um, lovely.
A LEVELS! So, my results were not as expected. You can work, work, work and still not get what you deserve. Life's a bitch. I got an A for my film studies coursework though which I'm happy with!! (the horror film trailer I made, which is on youtube) so that is a great achievement! I also got an A for the horror section of our exam (I have a weird passion for horror films so go figure right? haha) and I got Bs for the other film paper!
Other subjects, I shall not discuss. Screw them all. I revised my ass of, and still, NADA. Grrr, whatever. Again, brighter side, I got in to uni though, so it's all gooood!
Registration day is 9th September - no idea when we actually start; bit nervous and unaware of what awaits me, but I look forward to it aswell! I want to meet new people, mingle, learn new skills, take part in more clubs and I wonder...will they have sororities? Hmm. Not sure I want to be bossed around by a bunch of valley girls for a week to see If I get in but you never know, if they did have one, I may um, take part...we steal things from Americans, :p
University awaits me. Freshers week should be good! daunting but awesome. Should I take my camera? or would that be weird? I vote for uber weirdness....CREEPY GIRL WITH A CAMERA, RUUUUUUN! Yea. I'm not sure I'll mention the whole 'youtube deal', or it could make a good icebreaker? - 'I make videos on the internet' 'REALLY?! so you're like a pervert?!' 'Um no.' or not..
So university, A levels results, okay so that leaves, summer holidays :)
We didn't go abroad. I didn't see any school friends. I didn't do hardly anything BUT, the two things I did do, were awesome, and so, I had a good summer.
SUMMER IN THE CITY was AH-mazing. It was basically the biggest UK youtube gathering so far hosted by littleradge, rhymingwithoranges and randomprodinc, held in London over three days, so good! I stayed for all 3 days. I stayed in a hostel with Beckie0 and omgoctopus (Beckie & Rosy) and it was lovely :)
Friday we met in Southbank by the london eye and saw loads of cool people, then in the evening we went in the 'fright club' which was so scary! you get locked in this room and zombies chase you and stuff in the dark, good stuff!
Saturday we was in Hyde park for fun and games and had the a massive circle (biggest in the universe?) in which we played pass the parcel ! then we split off in to groups and our group ventured all around London, played dodgems (Billie if youre reading this I quote, 'WE'RE GONNNA DIEEEEE!!!!' *High pitch scream*, got scared by pigeons, went in the trocadero and most importantly, went to the 'dress circle shop' - the best shop in the history of shops, in my opinion.
Y'all know I'm crazy about musicals, well this shop, is a shop about musicals! merchandise galore! I spent £60.00 in there, oops, but so worth it! I must go there again, SOONISH.
Another highlight of the Saturday was waiting outside the WICKED stage doors and meeting all the cast! I finally got a picture and autograph from Glinda (Dianne Pilkington) YAYY. I met Oliver Tompsett for the third time, Alexia Khadime, Madame Morrible and the wizard, oh and the new Nessa-Rose! :) Yes, I'll shutup about wicked now....I've got five programmes, three signed ones and pictures with the cast and a ton of merchandise, wooo ;D WICKED! no pun intended!
I'm writing in the dark and so I can't see the keys, so I'm typing without looking so ignore spelling mistakes or weird typos.
Other stuff.
Oh and SITC sunday was good also, there is a video on my youtube channel with all the gathering footage so, go watch!
I went up North for three days as well in the Summer to visit my oh-so lovely friend Amber! 'twas an Awesome weekend; we went to Wales, church oh and to the shops in our pjs, ohhh fun times.
I went on a family Holiday to a Haven Holiday park. The. worst. holliday. of. my life. Seriously. Ugh,
I won't go in to detail but, it was awful. The camp sucked.
There's no point me going in to terrific detail about what I did, as it is much easier to say it all in a video, right? yes.
My life isn't all happy sappy at the moment, I actually just broke down crying on the Sunday night because as soon as I got back from summer in the city, I got a lecture and moaned at and again I realised how not-so-perfect my life is.
I don't have a great social life, or money to spend, or people to see; my family always has problems, I don't have anything amazing to do with my life but right now, I'm content and just taking every day as it comes. Carpe diem. Seize the day.
I shall go now, and I promise to write more continuously now. Insightful blogs are yet to come. Meaningful ones. Rants. I don't know. I've got this bandwidth, it's knowing what to do with it ;p
I love you guys. Thanks for your kindness and support (most of you, not the ones who call me fat, ugly, repulsive, impersonate me, set up hate channels) but everyone else, I love you, god bless, good night.
Sarah xx

When you get to your chosen university you can actually see if you can transfer courses. There is a huge drop out rate at university and people leave within a couple of weeks which frees up places on other courses. Even if you don't have the required points its easier when you are in somewhere to go and talk to tutors themselves and transfer over.
Possibly giving you some hope if your chosen university has some drama or arts courses that you like. you could always check it out and whilst starting going to ict classes. Although nothing really goes on the first couple of weeks of uni except freshers fayre and socials.
take care x
