Just found out, and I do mean just found out , that I passed my first year of University!!!

So happy!

Why do they have to put it up at 11:10 anyway... ¬¬

Well done

I swear my taste in TV is getting increasingly trashy. Since the likes of Desperate Housewives and Glee have permanently ended/no new episodes until September 13th I'm getting into another summer of reality TV. Big Brother and Geordie Shore as per, but I checked out Channel Five's new series of The Bachelor and it looks pretty good tbh (for a self-confessed reality fan though, I had no idea who Spencer Matthews was as I've never watched Made in Chelsea). Got to admit I think Channel Five have really upped their game recently (either that or I just like their shows) as I NEVER used to watch that channel other than for my nightly trip to Summer Bay (Home and Away is awesome don't diss ).

Dislike...

What has TV done to you!?

Well I've got past my Loose Women/Jeremy Kyle/X Factor phase. Surely this means my taste is getting better, right

My car has been stolen.

Well, not really. My brother (that I've disowned a long time ago) borrowed my car without my permission (not that I would ever let him borrow it anyway even with him asking.)

But I was so angry when I saw that my keys were gone and my car wasn't parked in the garage.

Mad, I'm mad. I don't usually get mad. I have a lunch date with my friends and if my car doesn't return in five minutes I'm gonna do something. I don't know what I'm gonna do but it's not gonna be pretty.

/rant.

What a beautiful day! It's 65 degrees outside and the sun is shining! Fantastic day to go running

How're you, beautiful people?

I'm subscribed to the 'what would you want to know about Oxford?' and some of the questions they ask, as people applying to/who have offers from Oxford, are incomprehensibly
stupid or trivial. One of the latest is asking what they should do for breakfast. The majority of the questions could be answered by phoning the college, anyway!

Some people...

Welcome to applicants? They could be a lot worse, honest. Someone in the Merton offer-holders' Facebook group last year asked if you needed to bring paper...

TWOC. Is he insured to drive the car?

[The Fez]

I just came out to my friend.

She took it really well. I feel relieved.

Well if it was in the UK I'm pretty sure he could be charged with TWOC, as well as no insurance if he isn't insured on it.... Not sure what the rules are elsewhere though

Hope he brings it back soon, selfish bastard

He doesn't have a license, he only has a learning permit. I could go to the police and make them take away his learning permit, but I don't know if I should. :/

So if he bins your car and injures someone - he won't have insurance, or a licence and you'll be minus 1 car and who know what he could do to someone else.

I'd get the parents involved.

Hope results are good for everyone! My life seems to be on hold until mine are released as I am really nervous. Just got to wait until the 6th which isn't too long thankfully.

Me too. Since I got back I have been watching Hollyoaks pretty much everyday. It's actually entertaining and full of gay characters though.

Thankfully he returned my car without a scratch. But I'm never talking to him again. Ever. Parents were out of town and I didn't wanna have a fight about it so I'd just tell my parents when they get home. He always does stuff like these just to push my buttons. I already have one brother who loves me and is nice to me, I don't need one who doesn't.

He could be charged with something similar to that, but I didn't report him. I mean I wouldn't mind if he goes to juvy but I think that's a bit too extreme, a juvy record means no uni / job prospects so.

I will give my family's friend who is a cop a call so he'd come over and scare him off. That might set him straight, that bastard.

And thanks!!! I expected her to freak out, but she was like, well...okay.

I've had a very productive day, went to bed at half 9 this morning, got woken up at half 10 as we had to collect our keys for the new place. Met the landlord, then spent 2hours going round town, went to the new house again hoping the landlord wasn't in (he was) got stung by a wasp... it hurt.

Then came back and went straight into the kitchen and made home made bread crumbed chicken and a vegetarian omelette (okay the chicken defeated the vegetarian bit...) And not to pat myself on the back but for a first ever attempt at an omelette, wow it's goood. I also fell asleep in front of the cooker...

It makes me chuckle when my flatmates come in and are shocked at what I'm making, it's not culinary magic but I guess compared to the stereotypical ping meals they eat it is exciting. Would you believe one of them didn't know what a bell pepper was?

I don't actually know what that is and I can't help thinking I should.

I should really think before saying stuff like that... I meant no offence

To be fair to you, she was looking at and still didn't know. In fact I'm pretty sure she was questioning whether it was edible and why it wasn't in a plastic container with 90% fat in it.

No offence taken. I've never heard them called bell peppers before, they've always just been peppers to me
