I was tagged by her. :)
So here we go:
1. I tried out for the school musical today and it actually wasn't that bad. I really hope I get a part, but a lot of talented people tried out. So we'll see.
2. Homecoming is coming up and it's more annoying than exciting to think about. (Some of you know why.)
3. I have a really horrible sleeping pattern. After school I'll come home and take a nap (usually with my cat) and then be energized until about one in the morning and end up only getting about five hours of sleep--which results in being super tired all during school. So I'm going to bed in a couple of minutes in an attempt to break that habit. (It's now 10:01 pm.)
4. I'm not quite sure I like my haircut, haha. Some moments I love it; some moments I hate it. But I'm taking a picture of it every day to log the growing out process, simply because that would be a wicked awesome stopmotion.
5. I'm finding myself wasting more time on the piano than on the computer. This is an improvement.
6. Why do we even have homework in school? I am pretty sure most adults don't take their work home with them (okay some do, but for the sake of my arguement, most don't, haha). So why do highschoolers have to? You're not preparing us for the real world, you're draining the life out of us. (Hmm these points aren't based on real solid fact, but whatever.)
7. I'm slowly but surely erasing my disney channel music tastes on my itunes library. Love me some real bands (though I'll always secretly be a fan of dc. :)
8. Praying that I get my braces off before senior year. Or at least senior pictures. It's been five years with these metal suckers!
9. I think I've figured out how to create an awesome (fake) focus on photoshop--since my camera is incapable of creating bokeh or anything else of merit.
10. (Can't think of anything else so ...) I hope you all have an awesome day! I thought of something else. Eyeballs freak me out. Well, close up photos of eyeballs scare me. It's because I once had a dream I watched a person's pupils grow bigger and bigger until the whole person was just this giant black blob. It was horrifying. Haha that is all.
P.S. If you read this, you are tagged.

Friday. And all you can eat breakfast set us up for the day. Friday night we went for amazing food at Lawson's restaiurant (one we had found last visit to Lincoln) then on to Carousel then Popworld to finish the night.
As it was Halloween weekend, we did our 'zombies' pose :-)
I will be out for an indefinite period for medical reasons.
I will not be able to comment on pictures for I can’t sit for a long period. I am going to miss everyone so much for I love my flickr family.
Would like to take this time to wish each and everyone of you a
Very Special Thanksgiving.
A couple of hours with a friend down at Clarence Dock in Leeds proved quite fruitful with a real handful of varied images hitting the CF Card. Hope you like the editing, I have gone a little outside of the box with one or two of them but I really like the result. As always please feel free to comment and all comments good or bad will be welcome. All the best for 2014 to all my flickr friends

Last of my weekend photo batch. I wanted to add this last one before I took anything else. I like how it looks but the only thing that bugs me is my hair elastic. I added the one in comments for what it'd look like with out the band but I didnt like how the rest of the image turned out as much as this one.
if you could please either ask permission to blog my photos or credit them that'd be great, thank you.

He was commissioned in the Royal Marines in December 1939 as a temporary second lieutenant, before being appointed a temporary lieutenant in March 1940. He took part in the failed Battle of Dakar, also known as Operation Menace, an unsuccessful attempt in September 1940 to capture the port of Dakar in French West Africa (now Senegal). In October 1941 he was appointed a temporary captain. In 1943 he joined the newly-formed 43 Commando with whom he took part in the Anzio landings in January 1944, alongside no.9 Commando. He was awarded the Military Cross for his outstanding gallantry and leadership shown while serving with the 43rd R.M. Commando in the attack on Monte Ornito on 3 February 1944.
His Military Cross citation (June 1944) reads:
'Temporary Lieutenant (A/Captain) John Philip BLAKE, Royal Marines. For outstanding gallantry and leadership shown while serving with the 43rd Royal Marine Commando in the attack which led to the capture of Mt Ortino, Italy on 3rd February 1944. On reaching the top of the Mount, through heavy machine gun fire, without hesitation and heedless of the danger from grenades, he led the forward section of his Troop in a bayonet charge on the enemy position and captured 20 prisoners. Later in the day during a strong enemy counter attack, this gallant officer moved from position to position encouraging his men and directing their fire. MC-LG 27 June 1944.'
Died on 3 June 1944 in an attack by 43 Commando on the island of Brač in German-occupied Yugoslavia, when, having successfully led his men through a minefield, he was killed during a German counter-attack.

Obituary, The Shirburnian, March 1945:
Captain John Philip Blake, M.C. (Royal Marines). John Blake came to Sherborne as a teacher of Mathematics in September 1939, spending only one term here before joining the Royal Marines. He was present at the Dakar incident and remained in the tropics for a large part of 1940-41 before being transferred to the Mediterranean. In July 1943, he joined the 43rd R.M. Commando and commanded a troop of 70 men. He went to Italy in January 1944, was awarded the Military Cross "for his outstanding gallantry and leadership shown while serving with the 43rd R.M. Commando in the attack on Mt. Ornito on 3rd February"; was present at the Anzio landing, and later crossed over to the Dalmatian Islands. He returned to Italy and on 13th June was reported missing as the result of leading an attack on a German strong point. His death in action was confirmed at the beginning of August.
Few will ever know the tremendous loss the School has sustained. It is hard to realise that such a splendid personality will not return to give us of his best, as it was his impatient desire to be able to do.
The essence of John Blake's character was naturalness and simplicity. His successes at school and university were more than enough to turn his head, but he never showed the slightest sign of conceit nor any desire to find his friends chiefly from among the athletically successful. He was Head of his Preparatory School at Emsworth and captain of all games; Head of the School and of Mead's House at Aldenham, where he was also captain of cricket and a school colour for fives and hockey. At Cambridge he won his Blue for cricket, was a member of the University Wanderers Hockey Club and of the Hawks Club, and was captain of Cricket and Hockey at St. John's. But no one would ever learn these things from his own lips. Amongst his own interests cricket stood out pre-eminently. All his letters to me contained some reference to it, no matter what time of year it might be. Sound and stylish bat though he was, it was his fielding which most impressed and gave such pleasure to all who saw him play. Whether he was playing for Cambridge or Hampshire or in some club match or on the village green, it was equally keen and polished, a perfect expression of himself. He had a most retentive brain and great powers of concentration.
But the most outstanding features of his life were his deep devotion to his family and to his faith and the enormous enjoyment he got out of life and friendship. He made friends wherever he went, for he entered whole-heartedly into the joys and sorrows of others in a natural way. All his officers stressed that he was a born leader of men and that all his men were so proud of him and so fond of him and talked of his outstanding personality. Perhaps the words of his Commanding Officer to his parents sum him up as well as words can: "John's loss to you is irreparable, as it is to the Corps and to the nation - an officer of his quality is quite irreplaceable".
R.S. Thompson (Housemaster of Westcott House 1936-1952)
Old Shirburnian Society Annual Report, November 1944:
'Blake, John Philip, M.C. (Staff), was educated at Aldenham where he was Head of the School and Captain of the XI. He later went to St John's College, Cambridge and was Captain of the College Cricket and Hockey teams. He obtained a cricket blue in 1939. He joined the Staff at Sherborne in 1939 but left on being gazetted to the Royal Marines being attached to the Commandos. He was awarded the Military Cross for outstanding gallantry and leadership in the attack which led to the capture of Mount Ormito in February last. He was reported Missing in June last and is now known to have lost his life.'
Headmaster’s Letter to Parents and Governors, July 1945:
‘We shall miss sadly John Blake, Captain, Royal Marines who was killed in Italy leading his platoon against a German strongpoint. He had already shown himself to be a most gallant and capable officer and his services had been rewarded by the award of the Military Cross. Although John Blake had only been one term at Sherborne before he joined up he had already endeared himself to all of us here and shown that he was going to be a really fine schoolmaster and a brilliant teacher of Mathematics.’

Our annual September trip to Newcastle, our favourite city.
Saturday was the Ladyboys of Bangkok show, the reason we always come to Newcastle in September.
Despite it being truly vile outside with freezing rain and wild winds, we had a brilliant show! Sat right at the stage.
Several of the dancers ercognised us from previous years and acknowledged us from the stage. And as usual we went on stage at half time to get our picture taken with them.
An amazing show!
We did go to The Bank for a drink afterwards and the plan had been for our lovely friend Fiona to come and meet us but it was so horrible outside that we cancelled that and went back to the hotel after one drink. We were back in the hotel room before 10.30!
Despite that, what an awesome night and a brilliant weekend.
