The life of a struggling teen.

well...BUGGER!!!

Well today as always I have had a great day folks! Started of great by me waking up late resulting in me running around like a headless chicken trying to get everything together before I had to leave the house to go to my college to do some work! To then make things better my bus left early so I missed it, so I had to wait for the later one, which resulted in me being 15 minuets late for the meeting I had at college, and also ended up turning me into a bright red sweating tomato look-alike as I decided to take a very risk walk from the bus stop to the college (which is up hill by the way) to try and catch up on a little lost time. However all it really resulted in was me looking dreadful when I had to walk into the room full of people for my meeting.

Of course at this point I was thinking, 'OK, well the morning has been pretty shitty, but I'm sure it won't be too bad now', how wrong could I be.

The college meeting was supposed to be finished at 4pm, however it ran over which meant that I didn't get to leave until about 5.15pm. I then waited at the bus stop just down the road from the college which only 1 bus runs from every hour, however it was due about 5 minuets after I left so I decided to catch that bus instead of trekking to the main stop where I could catch a more regular bus. Well it got to 5.18pm when the bus was due, no sign of it. It then got to 5.30pm, still no sign. At 5.45pm I decided that it was now beyond a joke as I was stood at the bus stop by myself looking like a real fool, freezing to death as the wind was blowing around me. By the time it reached 5.55pm and it had started to rain I was livid! What its the point of advertising a bus that only runs once an hour anyway, if it isn't going to show up. So I decided to face the inevitable, that I was now after waiting more than 30 minuets for the bus that didn't show, I was still going to have to make the trek to the other bus stop!

Again I was thinking, 'Well OK, things have been really crap so far, lets just hope I don't have to wait too long for a bus at this stop'. Again I was wrong. Just as I was approaching the bus stop, what went past, of course it had to be the bus that I needed to get home. By this point I was just about ready to kill someone. I swear down that had there of been someone from the bus company at that bus stop, I may not have been able to get to a computer for a VERY long time!

Anyway I stomped my way over to the bus stop, to check the time of the next bus, and of course because it was now 6.30pm the buses had switched to their evening timetables which meant of course that I got to wait an extra 15 minuets longer than the normal 20 minuet wait for a bus! Lucky me!!!! Well eventually the bus arrived, I got on and of course there were no seats where I could just sit alone and brood, which of course meant that I got to sit by some smelly old guy who really needed to get some deodorant.

By the time I got home (over an hour after I got on the bus, as of course everywhere is full of roadworks as it is 'Lets dig up the road and put it back down exactly the same time' of the year again) I was tired, starving as I had hardly eaten all day due to the waking up late and missing the bus issues, well and truly fucked off and to top it all off I was soaked to the skin!

What a bloody great start to my week!

Well as the song goes 'Things can only get better'. However in my case I usually find that they just get worse!

Hope you all had a better start to the week than I did.

Update again soon

Party of a life time! NOT!

I went to a friends birthday party last night, and was bored out of my skull all bloody night! Why you may ask? Well the music was crap, I was there with my mother which meant that I couldn't drink much, other than my friend, my mom and her mom and dad i knew no one there, and to top things off the only one cute guy there was there with his girlfriend! So this of course resulted in me sitting in a corner by myself all night wondering what the hell i was doing there!

I am getting to get highly concerned about my current unemployment, well really my current lack of money which is causes by my current unemployment. Don't get me wrong it isn't because I haven't been trying. God knows that I have been applying for every job that I can find that I could do, however nobody seems to want a 17yr old with 12 A*-C grades at GCSE who has good communication and computer skills and is very hard working! My family and friends keep telling me that it is because I am too clever to work in a shop sitting behind a till all day or stacking shelves, however I don't believe them. The reason? Well its because every time I go shopping I see someone from my old school (some of whom got better grades than I did) tilling up someones shopping, or stacking shelves. I would love to know, exactly what it is that they are doing right that I seem to be getting wrong. Answers on a post card! (or in a comment would be fine. LOL).

Well as far as today goes it is going much the same as yesterday, woke up with nothing to do, followed by nothing to do. Things aren't made easier by the fact that my only real friend has buggered off on holiday for 10 days which means that I am even without the option of going down to her house and having nothing to do there! Also the lack of boyfriend also means that I have nothing to do. Take that comment anyway you like ;-) lol.

Post again soon

My first day as a blogger

Well today is my first day as a blogger, and what an exciting day it has been, NOT! Today like most days started off crap and has been gradually getting worse ever since I got out of bed! After an exciting breakfast of nothing I decided to turn on my TV and see if anything was on the 600 channels that I never watch, the answer was of course not! God forbid that I would actually find something on the television that is actually watchable. I constantly wonder why I pay money each month for television that I never watch because there is never anything on!

Well I suppose that I should fill you in with a bit about myself, so here it goes:

I'm not going to tell you my real name, however you can all call me Elle as it is a name I am fond of. I'm 17 years old and I am currently about to start my 2ND year at college in England! I live at home with my Mom and my brother both of which really get on my nerves sometimes (in fact my Brother gets on my nerves all the time!). I am single just as I have been for let me see, erm, forever! (Don't get me wrong I have been on a few dates, however they have all been dreadful, resulting in me staying single!)

So there is a little bit about me, I'm sure I'll be filling you on many other things as time goes by. For now I think I am going to read a little locked away in my bedroom and I always am. (Because I choose to lock myself away, not because someone locks me away, I'm not Harry Potter forced to live under the stairs!)

Bye for now
