I totally missed your birthday, didn't I? I suck.

Happy Birthday!! Was it amazing? I hope you had a fantastic day!

I'm sure you were great! How many colleges have you applied for?

Yeah, I always felt so happy to know that tea was such a British thing to drink, and I love it. Then I watched Horrible Histories a few years back and they told me we basically stole it from India after we ruled there for a little while.

It's even better in places like Scotland and France, I'm pretty sure they never pay towards Uni/College fees or anything.

They are stressful, but I love picking out presents for everyone. And I don't mind receiving one or two or fifty myself. I always ask for DVD's, so it means the actual amount of presents never really adds up to much. But the price of them does.

I'm so hungry right now, eating til I keel over sound so good.

On that note, I'm going to head off for some breakfast.

Oh, and some exciting news! We just got a god! That was meant to say dog but it's too funny to delete now so I'm sticking with god. I'm a cat person, but I'll take whatever cute pet I can.

LOL omg, I see your avatar ALL THE TIME and I saw it now with the witch hat and oh my goodness I about burst out laughing. I just thought you should know. Sorry it's random.

Good luck with the interviews! I haven't had any yet and I'm kind of hoping I won't have to. All my Uni choices say that there "may be" an interview which is so stressful. I refuse to prepare for an interview that may not happen. Don't they realise I'm far too lazy for that?

I can't draw anything. Representation of me or not, haha. I've never drawn anything that someone hasn't had to ask me what it was. It's bad.

Yeah, it's like, the best thing about Britain. I mean, I'd usually go with tea, but technically that's Indian. We just kind of stole it. Oops!

I hope so. Everyone is really hoping that it's going to go really well.

I'm going all out childish. I bought a Seth Cohen style Christmas jumper, a Christmas Pudding mug, socks with stags on them (that counts, right?) and a Mr Christmas pyjama top. I am going to eat too many sweets and no vegetables with my Christmas dinner. Although, I'll do all this when I'm eighteen too, so I guess it's not for my last child Christmas. I just love Christmas.

You are not the worst! I was in the red zone for the storm, meaning it was meant to cut off our power and ruin our lives. And nothing happened. That's Britain for you, even huge storms are so bored with the country that they don't even bother to happen properly.

double...

It's just another thing we have in common, twin!

I managed to finish up my UCAS application. I'm just waiting for my head of sixth form to send me my personal statement back and tell me what to add/remove/change e.t.c. I could talk/write for hours about certain things, but myself is not one of them. Unless they want a very negative portrayal. I kept trying not to sound like I hated myself, but I'd re-read things and think it sounded like I was putting myself down. Like I put stuff like, "I need to develop this, this and this. But I'm good at this!" And it sounded bad.

That's rough. But I guess they'd have saved up for you, or your wealthy enough to not save up. I don't know. I don't have to pay anything back until I'm earning over a certain amount per year.

Media is going well. Getting our idea together in the next week, and then we can start really planning this thing. And Cinderella. Hell, so much pressure. My teacher basically told me my whole grade relies on me being near perfect in it, so there's that. And inside I'm freaking out but I keep trying really hard to get it right and listen to every direction she gives me. I know my first scene. When I should know the whole script. But I will nail it, I know it. I have to.

I can't get Christmas off my brain, I'm super excited. It's my last Christmas as a child! So I concluded that I get to act like one. Not that I don't anyway. Oh my goodness, I will have to get plans in motion for your eighteenth birthday Mibba surprise. I missed it last year, so yeah. I can't believe we've been speaking for that long. Usually I run out of things to say by like, comment number three.

I feel you. We're in the same boat. I'm definitely excited for uni though.

I was busy... busy being an idiot. I can't believe that I keep managing to forget comments so easily.

That reminds me, I need to finish my personal statement for UCAS - which is like a University application site that stores your information and then sends it all of to the Uni you want to apply for. What is the process like for you Americans? I bet it's completely different. Do you have to pay all your college fees upfront?

My Media project counts towards 50% of my overall grade, and I have to make a thriller film trailer with a friend. It's going to be so much fun, I can't wait to get started with filming, so far we're just planning stuff.

Cinderella is going... okay, I guess. I haven't learnt a single line yet, though, 'cause I've been beyond busy. At least it's the last performance that requires line learning. There are two more after this, but they're just singing (sarcastic cheer).

Nothing exciting going on for me, either. I've done some Christmas shopping for my friends, one of which still hasn't gotten their birthday present yet. It was like, two months ago. I need money to order presents... she seems to understand.

I can't wait to see where you go with it! Sorry I couldn't find something constructive to comment, sometimes I feel like I might as well copy and paste comments from your other stuff, I've said it all at this point.

I was beginning to think that you were never going to get back to me...
Turns out that it was my turn to comment.

Update on my life: It's seriously boring and consists of schoolwork, schoolwork and university prep. Oh, and then some more schoolwork. All I have to look forward to is fun work, like my upcoming Media film trailer, and playing the Professor in this weird modern Cinderella where Cinderella is a mechanic.

What's up with you? Anything exciting happening over in the states?

Don't you just love my Mibbaween costume? It's my most favourite theme ever. My avatar/icon thing is probably my favourite part, I love that image.

Also, the way you got those ants off of your laptop is hilarious. You were like the pied piper of ants.

I would've got back to you sooner, but my family and I headed down south eight days ago for a holiday. There wasn't any wi-fi, except for when we went for meals and things, so I was practically internet free.

First things first, Silver. I want to curl up in a ball and cry. My comment says it all, and I could go on. The story was just so brilliant. I loved it. I'll stop now.

We only have to go to school until we're sixteen. And then we can choose to go to college or sixth-form or just leave the education system for good. College for us is like pre-university. So, you do two years (from the age of sixteen to eighteen) in either college or sixth-form and then go on to uni. Make sense? I'm not all that good at explaining things.

I end up making them in February because I forget. Then I stick to it for, like, a week.

I'm curious, what was the contraption that got rid of the ants? We have ants crawling over our front and back step all summer long. We have to pour boiling water into their homes, which I don't like doing. It's ant genocide!

No smilies in this one because I had so much to write. It felt like I was rushing my fingers and I sort of stubbed my little finger on the shift key. Ouch.

You probably did, I'm just always messing up with commenting. I do try!

I match my sentences to smilies too, don't worry.

I have such a small amount of knowledge of schooling in America, even though I've asked and asked, I just can't get a grip on it. I still google 'English equivalent of -insertnumber- grade' all the time.

I wish I was a carefree person, but I'm really not. I'll make that a New Years Resolution. Which I called New Years Revolutions for years. It's hard to call them 'Resolutions' now.

I'm really jealous of that, because you can't really change your course in Uni. There's different qualification that they'll be looking for and you'd have to drop out and apply for the new course for the next term.

There is a billion smilies in practically every post I write!

My mom is a good cook too, but she never does anything off of the show. Especially when it's something I actually want to eat!

I wish we had some sort of honours class system or AP classes. We just have everyone who wants to do it in one room at the same time. And the school don't actually care if we even show up because we're at school voluntarily.

We can stress for each other and for our selves. Double the stress. Actually, lets just be really carefree.

I guess that could work in your favour because everyone you compete with after college will have the same qualifications and you'll have something a little different. And it's cool that the college are willing to ensure you get to do the course you want by constructing that for you.

Aww, thank you! Forest Girl is my pride and joy on here, so that's cool.

My mom is hooked on the cooking channels. They're so irritating. All I do is moan because the food looks so good and I can't have any.

Aww, well at least it went well in the end. It must have been weird to sit there while she read it. I get so weird about people reading my stuff in front of me, the suspense while they read is too much for me to take.

They want really good English grades. I just think I'm stronger at the creative side than the technical side of English and I'm freaked out that I might not be taken seriously unless my English grade is an A. Literature is damn hard. I have to study this huge poem, The Wife of Bath, and I can't even have it with me in the exam. As well as studying a Shakespeare play compared to another play written in old English and then my coursework is to compare the novel Atonement with Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing and a collection of poems. I'm getting stressed just thinking about it.

Construct your own major? That does sound pretty interesting. What do they mean by that exactly?

I wish I took compliments well, but I really don't. I read it and then I'm like, you're wrong, I'm horrible. I need to stop.

I strong doubt I'll be disappointed by anything you write in Silver. It's the story I look forward most to being updated on Mibba. I'm keeping it on my subscription long after it's finished. I'll turn it into a movie and make you rich!

My mom watches some dumb programmes too. She is constantly watches those housing shows about moving abroad and stuff. I think she wants to get away, and its her way of telling us that she's about to run off to another country. I wouldn't blame her.

Of course she was impressed with Glass Houses. Otherwise I wouldn't flew over there, printed Glass Houses off, collected the papers and then bitch slapped her with them. Or I'd just curse from the safety of my own home about how stupid she was. That would probably be easier.



There's like 2 screenwriting courses in the UK and they're both at Universities that are total crap. So I'm going to do English Literature and Creative Writing. Although if I get into Anglia Ruskin, it's called English Literature and Professional Writing, and I can dabble between stories and scripts. So, fingers crossed. Also, my friend Shannon wants to do Equine Studies there, so I'd know somebody who was going. I think it's so cool that she wants to do a University course all about horses. She's pretty awesome.

But after University, I'm getting a plane to the states. I don't even care if I have to be broke and homeless, I'm doing it. Okay, I care about the homeless part, but I'll figure it out. I can get a job. I have people skills. Correction, I can lie about having people skills.

I'll just be a good patient boy and wait for the updates like the rest of the people. But if you need help then gimme' gimme' gimme'! I'll just chew off all my fingernails until you update again, haha. I use too many smilies and this comment was humungous. I'll shut up now.

No I won't, thanks for the recc!!!!! Okay, I'll shut up now.

My sister puts Nickelodeon on and I groan inwardly. And sometimes outwardly too. I'm very expressive with my dislike of things.

Okay, one day we will have something that we totally disagree about, causing the world to implode.

I knew you'd do good! You're so going to get in! I touched wood just in case I jinxed it with that prediction for the future. What is it that you're planning to study?

I wish I could hack computers, I'd find a way to grab those final chapters of Silver and bury my face in them. Or read them, that's more normal. As soon as you said it was finished, I thought you meant on here and I rushed over to see. I was like, that's the ending! Oh my God, she can not do that to me, it's such a cliffhanger. What?! Then I read the authors note again and burst out laughing at myself. I was freaking out, and then it was like "T-6", oh, that's quite a few chapters left then. Calm down, Connor, you idiot.

That's okay. I just imagined her sat down, chewing at books while the librarian watched in shock. I'm a weird person.

Edit: Thanks for the recc of Good Girls! Did you know someone put you in a recc blog? It's here.

I used to watch that show, but it's not on TV anymore. Not over here anyway. The kids shows of our day were too good. Now it's so dumbed down, the writing, the storylines, everything. It's so irritating.

Thank you! Screen-writing is the dream. I want to control how people feel, is that weird? It's like how I used to kill off the families I played in Sims because I liked controlling what they did. I'm strange.

OH MY GOD, GOOD LUCK! And if I was too late to wish you luck, I'm sorry, how did it go? If you're as easy-going and funny as you are when we speak, I'm sure it'll be/ it was fine.

I'm really pale also, making it impossible for anyone to tell whether I'm ill or not. I've had people ask me if I'm okay because I look sick. I don't know whether to say I'm fine or just go for a sarcastic 'thanks'.

Oh, that's good! I don't know how I could've thought that we'd disagree on something.
Seriously, stop being so twin-like, it's creepy.

It's nice to know I'd have at least one viewer! Thank you, I wish I was writing for a TV show right now. You could totally be a writer for a show, too! You're the only person I've ever met that seems to watch as much TV as I do. I don't even want to go to University, I just want to go for it. But that's not a good idea, must get me an education first.

I'm all better! It was like a 24 hour thing. I'm fine now. But thanks for caring.

Haha. Usually I'm quite good with hiding my illness, mostly because I look like crap 95% of the time anyway, but that day I looked awful.

Avatar is one film that I just can not stand. The world hates me. Everyone gets so shocked that I don't like it.

It's about twin sisters, Charity and Chastity, who've never really lived up to their names. One boy, currently named Garrett but it'll be changed 'cause I don't like it, decides instantly that he dislikes them both. Because of this, the sisters make a deal to get him to fall for one of them, making a little game out of crushing him. Obviously, because I love a good cliche, they're going to fall madly in love with him and it's going to become about who can get him. Sibling rivalry and all. It's called Good Girls. The banner's being made over at the Mibba Stuff website. The graphics on that site...

I am not feeling well.

I almost threw up in the middle of town today... this old woman looked at me like I was a drug addict because I was shaking and pale and awkward. It's quite funny, but err, it wasn't nice.

I haven't even started season three of Supernatural yet, unfortunately. I'm trying to hurry up and finish off season five of Mad Men first. Why do I busy myself with TV?

And writing. I'm starting another story, which I'm sure I won't keep up with, because I'll have too much to do.

Yeah, I like having weird quirks.

I have almost another year to wait for Peter!

Yeah, it was an amazing episode, but sad. OH MY GOD!! That season 2 finale. I'd actually seen the two before it before. Impressed with myself for that.

Yeah, I thought I'd wait for Peter until Summer is over. For some reason, I find Pocahontas to be a bit more summery.

It's not my turn to comment so make sure you read the comment below this one but...
1. Jesus effing Christ. I just watched the episode where Sam and Dean met the werewolf and Sam had to go and shoot her at the end. I think her name was Madison. Or Meredith. I don't know, it's four in the morning so I'm tired. Anyway, it was so depressing that I felt I would share it with you. Supernatural, gosh. I'm hooked now.
2. I have a new theme. I've decided from now on they'll all be Disney. Next one is going to be Peter Pan but that'll be a while. Bye!
