Albums of 2009 (although I still love most of them now)

Got really excited earlier when a letter from UCAS came, but it was just a confirmation of me sending off my UCAS. Which I think is totally pointless >;/ I don't particularly want to know about something I did myself...
Never mind like; I really wanted a university saying 'yes' after like 2 days though. xP not going to happen though.

How is your UCAS Xanthe by the way?


Mhm, one thing that really annoys me about exams though is that I barely see my dad at all during them. My mum insists upon me staying at her house for the exams. Makes sense as Hendredenny is closer to school, and its best to keep all my revision in one place, but I just feel bad for my dad like :/

Also, I can put up with my dad for much longer than my mum. She's alright but I just need her to shut up sometimes! And she doesn't :|


Anyway, Rob's blog said express your favourite albums of 2009. So yeah, I had a few:

- Day & Age! I was obsessed with this Killers' album more than any other album they've made although I've kind of levelled out now. My favourite song is A Dustland Fairytale =]

- Folie à Deux. Before this album I only had limited love of Fall Out Boy. I had heard one or two of their songs. I really got into this album and listened to it constantly last year. So yeah, t'is good :) I have no real favourite on this album because I've been obsessed with most of the songs at one time or another.

- Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends. Early in 2009 I was amazed by Coldplay, and I got into this album. And then I got into the EP they released next.

- Prospekt's March. Listen to Life in Technicolour II. Its awesome =]

- Everything in Transit. Not a big fan as much now, but I did listen to this album by Jack's mannequin looads. I like the cover to this one =] Is pretty

- The Fame. Yeah, I am kind of ashamed to admit it now, but Lady Gaga's first album I listened to many many times. I don't like it at all any more but there you go - it happens.

- Only By The Night. I love all the songs on this KOL album :) It's been on my mp3s since like forever so yeah, all them songs are good.

- Slipway Fires. Now I realise I can't really put all the albums I've loved in 2009; there were looads. But yeah, I was obsessed with Razorlight too :)

And there's a few more albums as well...

OK, there's basically loads I feel I should put in, but its difficult to sort them down to the top 10, and I also can't be arsed :)

Hope it satisfies your question though Rob

Buried by Exams, and a Big Picture of a Cookie =]

I haven't chatted about exams yet. Its all like meh. Now, I guess I've had my first exam for this year, I'll talk about it.

Just had history this morning. Went good I think, I actually enjoyed an exam for once which makes a difference. It didn't have excessive amounts of annoyingly loud GCSE kids, and I actually found some interest in British history. I didn't even mention the hoover though :O

:/ that's disappointing; I'll get over it.

I'm actually looking forward to my marks :) not that I really want to think too much about the exam now its over, but still. I just need a result that will push my History grade to a B.

Now History is over, I really want to relax again but its like Geography now :/ and this is the exam that I know I'll find impossibly difficult. I just can't get my head straight on it though. Its Human Geography, with stuff to do with Cardiff Bay regeneration? And ummm well there's loads of work we did on it last year in a short space of time, which had no effect on me whatsoever. And now I must learn a reasonable amount for it in a day? Unless the exam's at 1, I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm not looking forward to that.
I hated the exam last time, its a lot of essays for 1 and a half hours. I mean I enjoy Geography, I find it very easy to talk about, but I can't remember everything in such a short space of time >;/ grrr.

Anyway, can't complain. I chose it after all, although I didn't know what the exams were going to be like. I could've quit in but what use would that be. Where would I be if I didn't have Geography and History. I hated French...despised Chemistry. Maths was extremely tedious. I can't even think of anything else I'd've preferred to have gone along with. Well, perhaps Geology, but that was in St. Martin's and I'm too lazy for that :/ ...


So, anyway. I haven't been working very hard on revision today, having a 'break'...


hmm

Bye bye


PS. I hate that I've lost my shaver. I need a shaveeee :(

and

PS number 2. Thanks for the cookie, Sarah =D

How Do You Pronounce It? Hay-tee or Hi-tee

Just felt this was important.

So sign the petition please lovely followers of my blog (:

Now wouldn't you love an informative blog on Haiti (: ....

There it is.

History.

Haiti does have an interesting history - well I find it interesting anyway - but I don't want to bore you. Instead just look at a picture of Jean Jacques Dessalines who led Haiti to independence from France in 1804.

He has a funny hat (:

...

I would write more about Haiti, but popular Haitian music is very rap orientated. I got bored. Also revision is calling to me. Sadly :(

Bye then.
