SEMI F-LOCKED



Personal stuff, photos, rants etc are f-locked. The rest, my creative ramblings and comments on life, are open to everyone.

I like to speak in French sometimes as well.

I love making new friends, as long as we have something in common :)

Tomorrow is my last day, of year 12 that is. Someone in our school has swine flu, and my mother didn't want my or my brother to go into tomorrow, as I am going to Peru in 4 days. I burst into tears.

She phoned up the World Challenge people, and when she said (on the phone), "So it's best if I keep them both off tomorrow" I did actually squeal/scream and burst into tears again, at which point she sent me out of the room. In the end, however, I get to go in tomorrow, but not on Monday, which totally works for me.

So now I can say goodbye to my friends! And have a proper last day, not just randomly be cut off. I will end up sobbing tomorrow evening, as I'm quite bad with last days anyway but a last day on a FRIDAY? Painful.

BUT YAY SCHOOL!!

Edit: My mother's spoken to her paranoid friends and she's got all paranoid again, and now doesn't want me to go in. She came and lectured me, and although it's still "my choice" my father's coming at home at 10pm to give me another lecture.

I'm going in. Anyone could have it. I was out at the cinema yesterday, and with a girl who's at a school with people who have it. I do not believe I am anymore risk going to school than I am at home with a mother who goes out to work and a brother who mixes with hundreds of people each day.

I am going to school.

Title: How to Cheer a Species Which, By Many, Is Known To Be Non-existent (Or: Why Rose Tyler Is, In Fact, Fantastic) (Rose-Tinted World Remix)
Author: [info]silvia_duchessa
Remixed fic: How to Cheer a Species Which, By Many, Is Known To Be Non-existent (Or: Why Rose Tyler Is, In Fact, Fantastic)
Remixed author: [info]boxed
Characters/Pairings: Doctor, Rose, 9/Rose implied
Rating: All Ages
Summary: When he’s lost to a world filled with nothing but burning guilt, there’s only one silly little ape who can help him.

A/N: Written for the [info]chips_remixed Doctor/Rose fic remix challenge. This was a lovely fic and really very funny and sweet, and I have swept over it with a huge angst-brush, for which I do feel very guilty indeed. However I hope you can still appreciate the beauty of the original idea, and that I haven’t completely destroyed it.

Rachael Yamagata - Worn Me Down is one of my favourite songs of this year.

I have a bunch of my favourite Disney songs in Russian and I LOVE them! Once Upon A December is of course my favourite, because it sounds SO much better in Russian.

I am dreadfully short of Russian music, though. It's obvs v.hard to find. I get French stuff from French radio, but I don't KNOW any Russian radio stations.

So, has anyone got any artists/songs/internet radio stations they can recommend? I would be very grateful :D

I fail to see the funny side of the person my brother was throwing stones at being my best friend's brother, and resulting in me being stuck in the middle, again.

However, I do rather like the Russian Disney songs I've recorded.

Love, Tasha

What fictional character do you most identify with?

It was always Rose, but then I grew up and changed, and I related much to Faith Lehane. But now I think Anna Grazinsky, very much.

One exam left. Which I've actually revised for, despite the fact I'm insanely drained and exhausted and keep stopping every five minutes to admire my Lisa Edelstein PC background.

I've just got the importance of the Edict of Nantes 1598 and the importance of the Peace of Vervins 1598 to do, and find some sort of essay plan I can do for my nobility section, then I'M DONE.

I'm gonna take a 2 hr break then get my mum to test me. But, shockingly enough, I practically know it all already.

And it's only 12.30.

Is this actually my life?
