Here With Me - Dido |
] |
Wow. Amanda con was awesome, didn't cry! Have been working lots...been a bit ill but not too bad! Lost more weight but people keep worrying I'm anorexic when I'm not.
Anyhu...
On Friday I was so excited and I decided to actually have lunch at the pub while I was there with my boys. Oh, such a bad idea. Baked potato and it made me feel lousy. Got picked up from college early and we ran in to town to grab some stuff. Felt worse and worse by the minute. Got in to Starbucks and I was hot, dizzy, in severe pain with my stomach and hips and thought I was going to hit the floor. I couldn't see my mom properly, my eyes had gone weird, and she said I looked awfully pale and she thought I was going to pass out. Got back to the car, considered missing the convention and going home to bed. I was really ill and really freaked out.
By the time we got to London I felt much better. When we arrived we discovered one of my favourites, Tobias Mehler, was a surprise guest. And Cliff Simon had managed to reschedule something and attend too! It was awesome, like seven guests. The cocktail party was fab and I saw Neil who I have a site about. I now have his email address and we talked about that. I met Eric who I have a site about and he's lovely. Chatted to the others. Tobias is HOT.
On Saturday got my picture taken with Tobias and Eric. Eric personalised mine which they don't do, as they sign them later after the shoot. He remembered my name and that it's me doing a site about him. He also told me at the shoot that that morning someone had asked him if he wanted a website. He'd told them I'd made one for him. Hehe. We'll see what happens with that.
Nice to see some friends, guest talks were interesting. Got our autographs which are lovely.
Today there were more talks and NEIL MENTIONED ME ON STAGE! Yay. Patrick Currie once mentioned me on stage too, haha. Yay me. He also announced the link of my site about him.
It was soo much fun. Ate so much food it's really bad but I'll soon work it off. I've decided to try and get back swimming.

Everlasting Fall by American Hi-Fi |
] |
wow. i'm so exhausted lately lol. i'm listening to american hi-fi and i've gotten american idiot by greenday from my boyfriend to borrow today hehe. i've just watched the second episode of stargate sg-1 season nine and the first episode of the second season of stargate atlantis. they rocked, especially atlantis.
today was a nice day, my tutor is really understanding and i told him briefly the personal sh*t (some of it) and why i wasn't in college last week. but things might be looking up, i hope. ben and i spent a couple of hours in the middle of the day in town and then he bought me a drink. it was fun...
i was so depressed this time last week, just a mess. i thought things were going to change, big time, in a bad way. i felt like it was all my fault. and that i should be better. so i've kind of not been doing so well with the eating and sleeping.
i worked four days in a row which really wore me out as after work i was going straight to the hospital to visit a sick relative. last night i went to a bowling for soup gig which was cool. bought a bfs shirt and american hi-fi were supporting. james had told me about them so i was excited. they were great, got the cd for a good price.
i've got two more days of college, two days at work then some time off, i think anyway. i've just booked another convention for next year, yay...
i've lost at least 3lbs this week if not more. my weight goes up and down a lot.
god things got so bad there. but i'm in college, i have a boyfriend, i'm now a size 12 and 9 lbs off my latest weight target, things seem ok...i think things will be okay.
people keep nagging me about my weight, i'm just glad my boyfriend isn't like that. i know people care and i love that they do, there's just too many of them. like my grandpa. he was really sick and the first thing he says is 'have you lost more weight?'
the truth is i'm not happy with myself, even though i've lost 31lbs. it's not enough. BUT i'm NOT out of control.
oh, and i have simple plan tickets. yay...

Tired - Tommy Lee & Joel Madden |
] |
The college week last week ended well. Friday was a gig night, and it rocked. It was nice to see the band and also the fans. The weekend. I didn't do much on Saturday, but on Sunday I dyed my hair a darker blonde and went to Collectormania. I met Summer Glau who was lovely, and then my mum and I went shopping. I bought a skirt! (Yes, amazing!) It's a black gypsy skirt with velvet panels. It was £30 and it's gorgeous. And a SIZE TWELVE! Omg. I'm between a 12 and a 14 now, and I'd only just got to 14 a few weeks ago. Also bought a cute little black jacket for £15.
Ordered the new Nickelback CD too so I'm about £38.00 in debt now. But I have just worked two days so I'll make more than that. I just can't get the money until the end of the month. Grr.
Yes, I started work. And it's really cool. The people are all really nice but I still worry too much lol. I'm known as Lilly as there's already two Sarahs there. It's cool, I think I'm going to like working there. In order to pay for the upcoming conventions, I've worked out I need to work another 12 or 13 days this month. Hopefully half term is soon so I can.
College tomorrow where I will see the boyfriend - yay - and also call in to work with one of my references and the times/dates I can work in half term. Will ask manager to give me as many days then as possible. College Thursday and Friday, easy.
Friday night driving to convention. Can't wait, meeting Kandyse McClure who is one of my favourite actresses, from Higher Ground. We have cocktail party tickets. Staying at the con until Sunday night. Then come home, only to leave early Monday morning for a Mostly Autumn gig. (Outdoor, late at night, shall be freezing.) Long drive. See band and fans, go to gig, come home, get home about 5am, pass out, and then get up for half a day at work at about 11am.
That's my plans for the next while. :)
Oh, and I ate lunch today! Go me.
~ Lilly

Elsewhere by Sarah McLachlan |

New life, new lj. I thought it was about time for a change.
Everything is so different now, it's going really well. I don't want to jinx myself here but it really is. I'm happy. Hell, I'm actually happy. That's just...amazing, really. Most of you know how miserable I can be.
Yeah, today, I wasn't so happy some of the time, and the tutors noticed. But mostly I feel really good. I like that I feel more confident. I like that I am enjoying college and am getting on well with the group. I have a boyfriend, who is really cute and sweet and just really adorable. I think the problem today was low blood sugar and boredom lolol. But my tutors are all really nice, and they were cool about my lack of enthusiasm for the work. Lunch was fun, with said boyfriend and another guy from the course. I actually ate!! There were some great parts to the day, I was mostly just getting fed up with the work - or lack of it!
Got an e-mail from Angela about a site I'm doing for her and Heather, which is always cool. :) Listening to Sarah McLachlan now, it's good to hear it again. Recently I've been more in to my metal and goth metal, e.g. Nickelback and Within Temptation.
Two official sites under construction, and two are still authorised. Gigs coming up. I start work on Monday and I'm nervous and excited.
Thinking of dying my hair brown...own One Tree Hill boxset now...am known as Lilly at work instead of Sarah, as there's already two Sarah's.
:-D
