25th August 2013: animals, blog-writing and carnivals.

So, this week has been a bit all over the place, and I fear it's been like that quite a bit recently and will be for the next few weeks too. At the moment these blogs probably seem a little light on the context front, sorry about that! The past few weeks have involved me recovering from (what I've called) 'Results Stress' and two of many jabs to come for Kenya... Still, onwards and upwards to what I've done this week! (with a special co-writer, my sister, writing in pink!)

I started this week off by doing lots of video uploading and editing (the editing didn't go too well though, the computer decided it didn't like the music!) Went and helped my Grandma get her food shopping, helped her put it away etc. After that we went home and me and Maria played Badminton... I'm a lot better than Evan, so I always win! That evening I decided to watch the Big Brother final (and I went to bed - because apparently it was on too late!!) I'm not surprised Sam won, but did he really do much in the house and why is he up for best male personality in the reality TV Awards?! 

Tuesday, I struggled to get up. Eventually I did and did some more editing and sorted the feature for my other blog, which features two of my friends and they do a session and stuff and the cover they do is pretty impressive. It's very good, I can't stop listening and singing to it! That was about all I did Tuesday!

Wednesday was alright, I sorted my room out a little bit. I then went for a driving lesson and drove all over the place - not literally - YAY! I did roundabouts, reversing, third gear, three point turn and traffic lights. One thing though, I need to stop talking to myself! I then decided I wouldn't go to cricket (yet again) because my knee wasn't being my friend. Which was good for me because I got huggles and we watched a film!

I had to be up early(ish) on Thursday morning for my first two jabs for Kenya (Evan was making some very VERY weird sounds and she wouldn't shut up!) I felt a bit funny every now and then. Listened to Fleetwood Mac for most of the day, finally finished sorting my Mum's ipod out, then did some packing and went off in the car down south for a week...

Friday, Mum and me went back home for a few hours to sort out stuff with Gran, did lots of other things too. I stayed with Dad, and we cycled to the swimming pool. My favourite part was the slides because at the bottom you get splashed!!

Yesterday, I woke up to a storm, but annoyingly no rain on the caravan roof (one of the most relaxing sounds ever!) Went for a walk to watch my sister do some swimming. Yay! Me! And we went in the lazy river! I still hate the smell of chlorine. We came back and chilled, me and Maria watched Horrible Histories... *sings* the past is no longer a mystery, welcome to HORRIBLE HISTORIES! 

Today was pretty long, we started the day off by going to Brent Lodge Wildlife Hospital and saw lots of animals. LOTS! Like tortoises (that were fake! They didn't move!), a hedgehog that was massive and spiky! A huge fluffy rabbit, a really cute fox and a very funny bird and some scary owls. After that we watched the carnival which had some pretty cool floats. My favourite was the Finding Nemo one :) I got a jaffa cake shake, which was very tasty, and I got a yummy kit kat shake! Mum and Maria then went on a ride at the fun fair, which was an amusing sight for me! And it was very funny for me, Evie should have gone on it. Hah, no way! We then came home and chilled, played swingball etc. Another game I'm amazing at! I beat my friends and I beat Evan as well! (only once!) 

 Music of the Week!

Ok, I know it seems like I'm always sharing Lauren's music... But this is her performance of Latch at Reading festival, where she headlined the BBC Introducing stage... Enjoy!
