Hello! Katia's back! It feels weird finally updating this, in my excuse I had the busiest holiday ever and in the two occasions I visited an internet club to check my mail had people with me who are quite unaware of the existence if LJ. I did miss everybody though.
So where do I begin? Um, I had so much fun, it was almost as a place out of time when I don't have to worry about anything school connected or work or anything else. It also means that it finished all too quickly but I've probably missed so much around here. Need to catch up in my reading ficwise and journalwise, but have just completed a rather scary looking to do list for the next week, which seems ever so slightly impossible. But my birthday is on thursday! Yay! And so I will finally turn 18 and will be legally allowed to join all the places that I have been a member of for a while now. Also voting!
Like I said the things I did over the past month are too many to recount in great detail so here is a short list, hope I don't bore anybody.
- Spend 10 days in very beautiful mountains with many cool people in absolutely appalling conditions. I think that the pictures I'll post in a few days will be better than describing this experience, apart from saying that I burned and peeled and climbed the highest peak in Bulgaria in fog and rain and also read Good Omens which is the coolest book ever.
- Did really well on my AS results, 4 As in English, Politics, Economics and Media and one mark off a B in maths, but with one retake this can be easily changed. So I am happy, happy, happy about this and need to really start my personal statement and prepare for applying.
- Started driving lessons, am finding it surprisingly fun, although not easy. But am not afraid which is good as I was terified earlier.
- Went to the beach many many times and have an amazingly brown tan to the jealousy of my very pale friend who came on holiday with me.
- Had a sort of summer fling I suppose, I don't like calling it that, but as we both knew that I was leaving in a week, I don't know what else to call it. Boyfriend sounds slightly scary, although others kept saying how cute we look together and how couply. I guess it was more than a fling, he bought me a present, which I absolutely didn't expect but it was so very nice. I don't really think I can do the long distance things, but we will keep in touch.
- Went clubbing every other day and that tends to take its toll on a person, but surely sleeping is overrated. *g*
- Met quite a few people who turned out to be surprisingly good friends in the short time we knew each other, will miss them loads.
- Realised that I am not really a big fan (read: hate) of school, hopefully will survive the last remaining year.
Will be back soon, and that's a promise.
