A tale of love conquering the whole world…

Sorry we haven’t updated in so long! But here is a nice juicy update on everything that has been going on.

Last night we went to my Uni to view the exhibition which was heaving! I don’t think I have ever seen so many people in one place. It was great to have everyone there and it felt so embarrassing to see people examining my prints! I couldn’t stop going red all night about it. It was a lovely turn out with some fantastic work there; though I was slightly disappointed that our tutor didn’t hand out any excellence awards and everyone else’s tutors did. Oh well.

Today was our 2 year anniversary. We were up at 6.30 and I was off to Sutton for my driving test. I passed with one (yes, ONE!) minor fault. The examiner seemed really happy and when I thanked him, he said he was going to cry! He got out and I drove for the first time by myself; I was shaking like a leaf!

We then drove to walk Hattie on the common which was lovely in the Sun. She seemed to love sitting in the back of our little black ford focus. [:

I also got these photos whilst on our walk.

We then drove to a bowling alley which was completely empty. We had the whole place to ourselves, and we got unlimited games. I beat him in the first game (hehe) and then he got revenge in the second game. We got high on skittles and gobstoppers which turned our mouths blue! We then decided to leave and head home. We were going to stay with my parents for the night, so we went back to the flat to pick up our toothbrushes. It felt so peculiar, but normal to be alone in the car driving around the place!

We then went out to dinner at a pub back up on the common. We went there 2 years ago and had a fantastic meal together. We both remembered how the temperature was way into the minus figures when we left and we shivered all the way back to the car! But this time it was really warm. We left and spent some time in the Sun and we just watched it set. Now the sky is yellow with purple clouds. Everything has been so fantastic!

Now we’re all snuggled up in bed, ready to hit the hay. That would be all from this side of the World for tonight. Goodnight Moon.

I am typing this at 11:11, our jinxed time. It’s pretty funny how much one notices something after hearing about it from everywhere. Spooky.

Today was fabulous. DHL delivered my prints for my exhibition and they looked stunning. I am absolutely stoked with them, and we were all squealing with excitement (or at least I was doing it loud enough for everyone!) We rushed out to buy velcro, we got 4 metres worth and Nay and I spent lunch time sticking them on. Then we and Libby went up to college with them and hung them up in my space. I was so happy, I felt like dancing and running around like a sore-winner. We looked at everyone else’s and there were some very odd ones as well as some incredible ones too, the variety was staggering.

We then went for Macca’s and sat at Southbank to gobble it down. The Sun kept disappearing behind clouds and we got a bit chilly with the wind coming in off the river, so we hopped back on a train and spent the afternoon all working on our own little things.

All in all, it has been a really productive day. I feel a good change around the corner and I am very excited. I think I’ve learned a lot today, and I feel all the more wiser for learning it. I am so, so, so grateful to Nay for helping me through this most stressful process of panicking, chasing prints and finally hanging them. Libby was pretty good too at helping out, but not as good as Nathan was. [:

I should get some shut eye. I have a driving lesson tomorrow (sigh), but hopefully this’ll be one of the last ones! My test is now in just over a week and I’m really looking forward to it. I want to turn over a new leaf, I want to make every bad into something good. So what if I fail this next test? I’ll just retake it for the 4th time, who cares? I know I feel good enough this time to pass, and that’s what I’ll set out to do and this time I won’t nearly pass out in the waiting room! Bring on lucky number 3.

Nathan, what you have done for me today means everything to me. Words cannot express how much easier you have made everything and words cannot thank you enough for everything you have done. You really have been my sanity and I’m so sorry if I’ve been a complete scrooge, I know I have been. I love you dearly and to hear you say today how proud you were of me made this all finally worthwhile. Thank you Nay, thank you so much. I love you. <3

Nothing much to report on today. Hmm.

I’ve found a new song to become slowly obsessed over. We heard it last night on Numb3rs as we were channel-flicking and now I can finally listen to it whenever I want. [:

I haven’t been feeling myself lately, and Nay’s been the biggest angel to help me find myself again. He’s kept me smiling and sane and always gives me hugs to let me know that I can be happy. I’ve been fighting some weird feeling for well over a week now, but it’s always lingering and I don’t want to let it win otherwise I’d just never bother to get out of bed in the morning. It just makes me realise how much I need Nathan to help me, especially in sad times. I have no decent reason to be sad, apart from a lot has gotten on top of me and he’s been nursing me back to the happy me. Like I always say, we always need somebody; whether it be family, friends or even just a stranger. Thank you Nathan for being my constant. I really am the luckiest girl alive.

We tearfully watched Lost this morning knowing it’s finale time next week. We’re not ready to say goodbye to season 5! I don’t want it to end, and neither does he. We’re lost without Lost. Don’t do this to us!

I’ve been chasing my prints for my exhibition and the company is just taking the absolute piss. They told me 5 working days to complete printing, mounting and couriering them to me. Today was day 5, so we called up to ask where on Earth they were because I need them by tomorrow! Turns out it takes 5 days to just do the mounting. I’ve already paid £200 for these prints and my Mum ended up paying an extra £15 to make sure they got here on Saturday. I bet they won’t even arrive on Saturday, they’re just such money grabbers. I haven’t seen the prints yet, I’m sure they’ll look fantastic, but I’m not impressed otherwise.

I’m just so tired of everything at the moment. I want to crawl away for a year and not wake up until everything is sorted out. I want all the problems to happen without us, I want to be care-free for a day. I want there to be a day where I’m not sad or heavy-hearted. I want there to be a day where we can just go crazy, and after Uni has finished, I’m going to make that day. I think we both deserve a little bit of time off, a little laugh and a day where we don’t have to worry constantly about everything! I thought that ever living together was a dream we’d never have, but now we’ve come this far; we just have to plough on. Now I just want to live this dream.

Sorry for the emotional diarrhea. I just felt like blogging and being partially deep for once. Peace out.

Today we went to visit some new-found friends in a little tent at the Natural History Museum. It was really exciting to be swooped by massive butterflies and we all had heaps of fun. We then went to explore around the inside of the museum afterwards before heading off to a drive-thru Macca’s for lunch. Yummy. It was a great bank holiday. [:

In other news, the tadpoles in the garden are still growing. I swear they’re going to be some bird-eating kind which we currently have at least 500 of! So much for natural selection. Hehe.

Anyway, this was just a really quickie update. We’re both absolutely pooped so it’s time to shut down and go to sleep. Mmh, sleep. Peace out.

Never trust the weatherman; probably one of the wisest pieces of advice I have ever heard. Today wasn’t rainy in the slightest, it has been sun, sun, sun!

We woke up and went to church this morning which was fun. There was a little girl getting christened so it was packed with tiny kids wailing and running around, but I find that the whole fun part. Anyway, we always leave feeling really good and we went to lunch at my grandparent’s. We played a bit of tennis on their court afterwards before we went on a bike ride. We went to the park with my sister, Libby who we bought an ice cream for. She wanted to try out her new bike which she got yesterday, and I couldn’t keep up with her and Nay racing around the place! I sympathized with my legs so much.

Anyway, it has been a beautiful weekend and tomorrow is May day bank holiday so we’re all off to a butterfly attraction up in the city. I love butterflies and I feel like a little child again thinking about how excited I really am.

Nay’s busy listening away to Dream Theater’s new album. I think he’s pretty surprised at how in parts they seem to have adapted a completely new style, but they’re still awesome all the same. You can still tell it’s good old DT. He’s currently playing some sick guitar solo which is making me feel like I’m time-travelling. Trippy.

As reluctant as I feel to reveal my last photograph for my Final Major work, I can’t hold back any longer! So without further ado, I present to you the final photograph!

I can’t help but point out that we look uncannily like this couple here..

Gosh, it cracks me up every time.

Anyway! That seems like all I have time for right now this Sunday evening. I think we should go and crack open some ice tea or Nay’s ginger beer and just chillax in the last rays of sun. Until next time then!

PS: Nathan, we’re going to Japaaaan! I’ll make sure of it.
