It's colourless,
It's odourless,
a gas,
and it's poisonous
Would that count as a Haiku?
Anyway, it's biology revision.

Perry the Platapus
This is Perry the Platapus.
He's blue.
He is also a semi-aquatic, egg-laying mammal of ACTION.
But, unknown to Perry, is the fact that there is another platapus...and her name is Heledd.
That's right!
I am a platapus.
Pero, Bwdj and I discovered this whilst in Swansea during the summer of '08.
How wonderful it is to finally discover my true calling in life, laying eggs and saving the world from evil whilst in agent mode.
I feel so useful.
More references to Perry to come.
(this blog entry was dedicated to Pero.)
Sigur Ros
I feel the need to voice my love for Sigur Ros.
This band from Iceland are truly beautiful. Their music is gorgeous in every way.
As I once told a website "Sigur Ros are the soundtrack to my dreams."
It's true.
I've fallen completely and utterly in love with them.
If you've never heard of them, I beg you to just go and give them a listen.
You won't be disappointed.
Hoppipolla. <3
Uptade my MATHS
Had my C2 maths exam today, containing CAST, Trapezium rule, Logs, Circle, Radians, Integration, AP's and GP's.
I am most pleased.
I said I felt like I had more confidence with this exam. It went really well.
So incredibly happy. So much so that I think I annoyed Daf a little bit when I met up with him after the exam.
So only one maths exam left :)
Only 2 biol, and 2 chemistry aswell.
BRING IT.
I am most pleased.

Maths
The best thing about revising maths, is that I listen to music on my phone the same time.
Ive completely and utterly fallen back in love with BECK and HOT CHIP!!!!
If you've never heard of these people before, then go check them out, please.
Also heard Lambchop for the first time in aaaaaaaages. They are so beautiful <3
Oh...I think I failed my C1 exam yesterday aswell. It was really hard...

C2 is tomorrow, and I have slightly more confidence...
And what to say about S1...well...I'll know how to work out the probability of there being 5 raisins in my slice of cake.

Summer
I cannot WAIT for summer this year!!
With a predicted heat wave, no exams and the slight hope that I'll have passed my driving test by then, all is looking well.
Over the summer I'm hoping to:- Lose some weight. (my stomach is getting on my nerves)
- Go to the little seaside town of Tenby more than 5 times.
- Spend time with lovely boyfriend Daf. (who has managed to put up with my outbursts of stressful-whore lately)
- Meet up with band friends.
- Go to Budapest with 3 Counties Orchestra.
- Meet up with Mr.Neil.Almond.
- Have a massive party in my field.
(I sincerely hope mother will let me do these things anyway...)
:)
