so Christmas.Christmas was nice. however, i feel that i have lost that Christmas feeling. don't get me wrong, i had an amazing time, laughed lots with family, got such super gifts, eat lots, watched Christmas telly...just don't have that excited nature anymore. i guess that's what happens when you grow up. i spent Christmas day with mum, dad, my sister Victoria, and nan and gdad. it was very chilled out. mum did an amazing job with lunch. best dinner ever. 
i got so many wonderful gifts from family and friends. my favourites included Neville's wand, harry potter Lego, a giant Tim Burton book, a giant harry potter behind the scenes book, and doctor who series 6 on DVD.

work had been stressful recently. but all i am thinking about is how i have two weeks off soon...that's keeping me going. i cant believe Lina will be here soon, it doesn't seem real. mega excited. its funny, because i forget for a sec, and then someone will say, 'so when is your friend getting here?' and i stop and thinking, 'oh my goodness! not long!'.

other news, my best friend got engaged, i met my other best friend's new boyfriend---who in fact is a giant...no really he is...no lie, started planning birthday bits and pieces for my other other best friend, seriously started tidying my room and getting rid of things---new year and all that, watched nearly all the episodes of the big bang theory and how i met your mother for Christmas, watched all the harry potter movies again, got really annoyed with stupid friends, got a message from a really old friend, cried watching the 50 greatest harry potter moments, and got post from Maggie today...and its new year's eve tomorrow. staying in drinking lemonade and playing board games i think. i am so freaking cool.
just watched Alex Day on the radio 1 web cam....man, hes so cute and awkward. i really want forever yours as the Christmas number 1...sadly, i know that's not going to happen.
anyway, i am feeling the Christmas spirit at the moment. apart from being really ill this morning with throwing up and feeling like death..i have put on a brave face and got on with it. 
so, the weekend was awesome. like insane. got the train at 6.30am on Saturday. got to London just after 8. and then met my friends from Liverpool, Jessica and Victoria in the giant queue. i was surrounded by lots of dressed up people, lots of Amy pond's, the 10th doctor's, 11th doctors---dressed in cowboy hats and bow ties. once in, we ran to Evanna's desk and waited for her to appear. we were going to be the first, so that was gonna be cool. we were waiting there and Arthur darvill walked past...kinda 'eeked' out loud. when evanna turned up she was so lovely. we spoke to her for ages. she really seemed to want to listen and talk to me. she made me feel so special. she was just so warm and friendly. she signed my wand and a photo of herself. 
then later we met Arthur. i told him that i loved his bowler hat. he said thanks, however he was only wearing it due to the fact his hair was a mess. he then took his hat off and shook his hair in my face and said 'LOOK'. he signed an American doctor who comic i had got last week, which he was on front. he looked at it for a bit and was like, 'what is this?!?' he liked it very much. we then gave him an elephant hand puppet, and Matt smith has a badger, and Karen Gillan has a fox, he had to have an elephant, as 'he is the nose' haha. he liked it very much, and even remembered to bring it to our photo shoots to have it in the photo. 
i had an awesome Saturday, met lots of people, spoke to lots of fans, brought some cool little bits, went to the Harry Potter talk and the Doctor Who talk, and just had fun.
Sunday morning i had to get up early again, as i went back. today was David tennant day. i really couldn't believe that morning today was the day i would finally meet David tennant, after all these years...watching Casanova, doctor who, everything...i really wasn't mentally prepared. so went with dad on the Sunday morning. got there, and everything seemed calm. although when it was photo shoot time, everyone went crazy. so many people who have never been to any of these events before really were not listening to anyone. i was in the queue with three people cosplaying as doctor who characters and a guy behind me. people keep asking us, is this the queue for David tennant photo shoot. we said yes and asked what number, keep in mind they were only calling numbers 1-100 tickets. and these people had 435, or like 698...we told them to come back later...but they would just stand there....it was really crazy. we just couldn't understand why they wouldn't listen. anyway, all the way in the queue we were talking about how weird this felt, finally being able to meet him. the queue was going so fast, and i realised i would only have a few seconds. but to be honest, anything would be enough. walking up to someone to like super love, in insane. i really don't think i will ever be able to explain it. people at work keep asking me, what was it like...but i never really know the right words. while i was watching other people in front of me go first, sometimes he smiled with his teeth, other times he had his mouth shut. he looked straight at me and said hello. he put his arm around me. i was thinking, please smile with your teeth...please. i looked out the corner of my eye...and he did. he was so lovely. if i had got his autograph i might of had a little more time with him...but i already have it a few times, and couldn't really afford it. 
i had such an awesome weekend. i still cant believe that i have finally met David. i thought i would meet him when he was old and grey. and that i met Evanna and Arthur, who were ever so lovely and funny. i missed doctor who...but i watched it when i got it. man, that was one weird episode. i do feel i need to watch it again. arrggh, hurry up Christmas...Saturday nights are going to be strange without it. back to normal everyday stuff now.
last night i got the train to London to meet my friend Claire. it was ever so sunny while i was waiting for the train, it made me smile quite a bit.
we went for dinner, and then headed to Shepherd's Bush Empire to go watch Slow Club. i love them so much. i have seen them before, and their music is a mix of folk, indie and a little sing-a-long out loud. i heart them. the best part was right at the end, they moved really close to the edge of the stage, and sang acoustic. the whole crowd sang along with them, it was magical.
i stayed in London last night with Claire. when i said goodbye to her this morning she was off to work. i decided to nip to forbidden planet and pick up my Doctor Who comic book, which is American, and i can't get it anywhere else...so its handy to be in London. then got the tube to the station, and then got my train. 
kinda tired now. although i keep getting excited about this weekend..i keep forgetting i will *fingers crossed* be meeting Arthur, Alex, Evanna, and David. i am really looking forward to it, however i don't feel mentally prepared yet!
so today was one of those days. you know when you are in a really bad mood, but you really don't know why? yeah...today was one of those days. although when i got home, i had packages from friends waiting for me to open and for them to cheer me up.
i got a package from my friend Charlotte, which included her cute drawings, pictures, a little book she made me, and a wonderful drawing of me.
my other packages were from my friend Laura from uni. her package was filled with postcards, letters, pictures, and a little Lego lady of herself.
i also got a package from Sophia, which included cute jewellery and a awesome corn necklace, a mix cd, drawings, stickers, and other crafty little bits and pieces. i love getting mail. 
i brought these for myself the other day...although, i think i am too scared to eat them.
so this is what the sky looked like when i got in at 5am after work....nice.
went to visit my friend Claire this weekend for her birthday. my friend Laura also went. it was really nice to escape from life and just go away for the weekend.
we went shopping, out for lunch at this AWESOME burger place...they were super amazing and i had a giant milkshake too, went to an outside play in a lovely park with a picnic, had a BBQ with family and friends, just hung out, went bowling, took silly photos in a photo booth, and just had fun. its hard because i used to spend all my time with them, and i used to live with them, now we just have to meet up when we can. it still feels really odd.
so when i got back from my weekend away, a package was left waiting for me. it was my summer swap package from 
also, my starkid t-shirts came yesterday. i will be wearing these all the time now.
so its back to normal life again. work...work...and more work. its really nice being back and seeing everyone, although i now have double the amount of work to do at the moment, fun times. so i have an awesome time at Glastonbury this year. a very different vibe to last year. the first few days were rainy, cold, and cloudy. plus the whole field was just mud...and it was super hard to get about through the mud, people were getting stuck in the mud and losing their wellies!! but then after a few days, the day broke in the morning, the morning of the night of Coldplay the weather got better, the sun came out and i got super burnt. Coldplay were amazing, like, i was nearly in tears at how amazing and moving they were. other highlights including watching Mumford and sons in the rain...that was beautiful, dancing away at the silent disco, getting a temporary tattoo at the 
also, i went to see glee live. oh my goodness, it was awesome. 
i went with my friend Charlotte. we had glee-themed drinks when we got there. singing along all night. when lea came on stage...i wanted to cry! arrgggh, i love her voice so much. best night ever!
