What a horrible week it's been...

The exam was alright, got one question I didnt expect, but the rest was fine, I hope so anyway...

Spent the whole of Wednesday shitting myself about the game, which turned out to be such an opposite of 2005. I knew we'd lose as soon as they scored, you just get a feeling like that sometimes. I think there was too much expectation this year and we dont deal too well when we're not the underdogs, I think. Or at least less so, than before.

Didn't go to college on thursday, couldn't be arsed, felt just blank, no feelings, no emotions, nothing. Took me a while to get out of that mood. Didn't have any college on friday either, this time cos the lesson was cancelled, so I got myself 5 days off with the bank holiday.

Now I'm alright, just about, it's nice to be around people you care about, who couldn't care less about football, allows you to put things into perspective somewhat.

Got a friend coming over from Russia in a few weeks time, whom I haven't seen for almost a year. Gonna be nice to see her again, cos we used to be best friends in school.

[ mood | crappy ]

I didnt have internet for almost 2 weeks. Only got it back a few days ago. But now I have to revise for my exams (the first one on Tuesday! D:) that I have little time for anything. And LJ is blocked on my college comps, along with most other websites I got to, but you can access MySpace all you want. Not sure about the logic on that one, but meh :/

I'm not looking forward to Wednesday that much either. My dad is not giving us a chance as per usual, no suprise there, but for some reason I get really nervous every time I think about the final. 2 years ago I had this weird confidence that we were gonna win before the game (not at half time though xD), but now I'm not so sure. It just seems a little too perfect for Milan to get 'revenge' and all that. I really hope I'm wrong. I feel really bad for thinking like that, cos that probably makes me a bad fan :(

Not sure what else to say, will probably give myself a day off today and start revising again tomorrow.

YEAH!!!! WE'RE GOING TO ATHENS!!!!! :DDDDDD

How tense was that game? Horrible to watch to be honest, but it doesn't fucking matter now! Though when it got to the pens I knew we would win cos we have our Pepe :DDDD
OMG just so happy :D Don't really care who we get in the final, although I'll be rooting for Milan tomorrow.

Haha Chelsea :P No Prem (most probably) and no CL (again xD)

Lalalaaa...

...it's 11pm and I still have some homework to do for tomorrow, was too nervous to do it before, couldn't concentrate, suppose I'll have to do it now xD

Comments and such tomorrow f-list ^^

Going back to college tomorrow. I don't wanna :( Still, it's the last term and my first exam is on May 22nd, so not that long left before the summer.

I'm trying to write my hisory assigment at the moment. Yes, I had over 2 weeks to do it, but seriously, who does their work on holidays? ;P Not going very well though, cos I forgot most of the stuff we were talking about on the lessons. Nevermind xD

Boro game on Wednesday. Probably gonna be another boring 0-0, but I still wish I could go. Stupid London *kicks Big Ben* Oh and by the way, is it just me or are there much more Arsenal fans around? I see them everywhere, not just North London :S

Can't think of anything else to say, so I think I should go back to my history assigment :/

[ mood | blank ]

I suppose I should start writing in here again...it's just that my life is so boring I can't be bothered to write about it in here xD Heehee...it's quite sad actually.

I'll be going home for Easter today. I've missed it so much, even though I've only been gone for a couple of days. Never thought of myself to be the homesick type, but there you go :/

College's been alright, although the last week before the holidays was very hectic, mostly cos I left my coursework until late, had to throw something together quickly xD At least the teacher liked it, so it can't be too bad.

I've still been watching football religiously xD Some things never change, hehe. It's the only thing that keeps me somewhat sane to be honest. Some great results yesterday - us winning, mancs and the arse losing, wish that happened more often ;) My dad still refuses to give Liverpool any credit xD He's like that with me as well - I do something well, it's never acknowledged, but if I do something wrong he's gonna rant about it for ages. Same goes for the team I support, I suppose :S

So yeah, I should be a good girl and start commenting again, if people haven't deleted me from their f-lists yet that is xD

I need a new moodtheme :/

[ mood | sick ]

I'm still alive as you can see, just xD

My sis got me addicted to WoW(a really addictive game, if you've never played it), so I'm not around much. I resisted playing it for a very long time, but finally gave in about 2 weeks ago.

I also got a cold. So horrible ;_; Serves me right though for not wearing a scarf outside xD

I have been following the football though, so I'm not completely detached from reality xP The last 3 Liverpool games have been great, hope we can keep this up for a while. The CL draw is nasty though :/

My Christmas break starts on the 21st. Going to Cardiff for a couple of days, then back to London for Christmas. Can't wait :)

[ mood | accomplished ]

I have so much homework to do for tomorrow, but I don't really feel like doing it. I'm so sick and tired of college right now, even though I had a very easy week, because some of our lessons got cancelled. I need a holiday xD

Went shopping with my mum today (I always shop with my mum 'cos she buys me nice stuff xP). Today we were buying presents though. Can you imagine? My mum's b-day is on the 3rd of December and my dad's on the 4th. Every year I have to buy presents for their b-days and then Christmas. I never have any money left afterwards xD Anyway, I bought earrings for my mum (she chose them herself)and a jumper for my dad. Hope he likes it.

My sister is coming over from Cardiff tomorrow. She said that she bought me a present over there, but doesn't want to say what it is.

*ignores football*

I'm in a strangely happy mood today...

Well, nothing strange about it really. I got an A* on my law test today. That's really good (duh! xD), especially since I got a C+ on my previous test. Lots of people got U's though, which is quite sad. I got to work with 2 girls for a presentation in my law class today and they are really smart and they both got U's :( And they revised way more than I did. The teacher said that she's going to get rid of lots of people and that she wants a small group 'who really want to do law'. I don't want a small group, that means I'll get asked a lot more xD
I thought law was going to be hard, but it's really piss easy, you just need to memorise those Acts and what each section of them states. That's what most people are struggling with really :/

Anyway, enough of that...

Good thing the mancs lost today, made me happy :D I was watching the Arsenal game with my dad though and he keeps calling Fabregas Faberge xD I just find it randomly funny...

...I was thinking of making this journal friends-only, but I don't know really, should I?

Well, another loss away...

To be honest, I wasn't expecting any miracles today as we've been so shite away from home all season, but 3-0? That just hurts :'( I feel like crying and punching the wall out of frustration at the same time. Stupid, stupid game >:( I hate it sometimes.

Don't know what else to say really, just feel really empty right now...

...college is sure gonna be fun tomorrow with about 2/3 of football fans there being Arsenal fans.

[ mood | thoughtful ]

I thought I should update this a bit.
 
Yesterday I arrived at my Russian courses an hour early, because I forgot the time they were supposed to start xD My teacher there is starting to get on my nerves a bit. She expects me to know everything about Russia just because I finished a russian school. Well, news flash: I haven't been to my dear country in 3 years, how am I supposed to know everything? She literally screams at me: "You know it!" when I say "I don't know" to something she asks. God...
 I was a very very average student in my russian school (I excelled in English 'cos it was easy, but that's about it), but now I'm suddenly considered Ms. Brain both in college and Russain A-level courses. And I don't like it ' cos I'm not that smart really :/ Kind of shows the differences in the levels of education though.

Football now: MOTD put our game on last yesterday! I was kind of pissed off about that. Yes, it wasn't the most exciting game ever, but no way was it worse than Bolton's or Everton's. 
 And what a bunch of bad losers are Arsenal? Ok, they were not given a penalty, but to react in such a way? Ha xD Hope we beat them next week :3

Well, I'm back in London now. Wish I stayed in Cardiff for Halloween; it seems people there take it a bit more seriously. I mean, they celebrate it more than here :(  Or not xD I dunno...

What else...I drew two pics yesterday. Finally, I got my motivation back to draw something. Those are my first pics in almost 2 months, except for that Xabi pic I did a month or so ago xD So, it's all good. And great game yesterday as well! Happy all 'round :D

And now I'm off to do my homework....

[ mood | calm ]

I managed to get myself online, cos my sister is "borrowing" internet from her neighbours and they don't have a clue about it xD Heehee...


About yesterday's game - I won't say how shite it was as everyone already knows that. But I was just thinking...if they were in a regular job and after a "perfomance" like that every single one of them would probably be sacked.

I'm surprised how calm I am today, cos yesterday, after watching MOTD and seeing us and then Arsenal, I felt like throwing a chair across the room or something, I was that angry xD I usually can control my emotions, but this defeat was more disappointing than others for obvious reasons.

Anyway, Cardiff's been nice. I haven't actually been anywhere yet, except for the shops, cos the weather's been awful the last 2 days, but hopefully tomorrow I can visit the castle :3

Going away... [October 21, 2006 @ 1:20pm]
[ mood | relaxed ]

I'm off to Cardiff in a couple of hours =D

I'm not sure if I'd be able to get online there, so I probably won't comment much, if at all :( 

And I'm going to miss the game tomorrow, but that's ok, we'll probably lose anyway, heh...Ever the optimist, me xP

Anyway...

I'm still alive as you can see...

...I have this Law presentation tomorrow, hope I won't screw it up and let my group down :/

2 days till my half term. Good. College's been much better than what I expected it to be, but I'm tired of it right now. Just tired.

I'm going to Cardiff on my own on Saturday. I've never been so far away from home on my own before, so I'm a bit worried.

The football bit:

I was watching the Arse game today with my dad and we had this conversation:

-Dad: "Liverpool play tomorrow?"
-Me: "Yeah"
-Dad: "Is Gerrard playing?"
-Me: "No..."
-Dad:"They'll lose then."
-Me: "O_O!!!"

And then I went on to have a rant for about 5 minutes about Liverpool not being a one man team and so on. My dad knows his football (the Russian league), but when it comes to the Prem or CL, he adopts the views of people in the media for whatever reason. It's a bit embarrassing sometimes xD
So, good thing the Arse lost though. Their fans in my college wouldn't be so smug tomorrow >:D

PS. Sorry to my f-list for the lack of commenting! I'll try to comment as much as I can till Saturday :)

Internationals >:( [October 07, 2006 @ 7:53pm]
[ mood | annoyed ]

Not a happy football day for me today :(

Another shit display from Spain, the only player who tried to do something was Villa and Torres is starting to piss me off with his falling from the slightest of touches >:(
Someone is going to get sacked soon I feel, not that that's a bad thing though...
Well done Sweden! :)

And Russia drew 1-1 with Israel. If we keep drawing games like this, we're not gonna qualify yet again :(

England though! :D For me watching them these days is like an exercise in self-punishment xD I have an unhealthy dislike of the Ingerland fans, the biased commentaters and about 70% of the team and yet I watch them everytime.

A lot of strange results today actually...

I got an A on my Law test today! :D It's also the highest grade in the class. I think I've outdone myself there. Never thought I'd get even a C, nevermind an A. So yes, I was pleasantly surprised by my results. Won't last though cos the law lingo drives me to tears xD I also got to do write an essay for history for Monday. Meh...too much work!

Our home phone's been broken for nearly a week now. And when we call the company, they keep saying: "We're fixing the problem." Well, do it quicker FFS! >:( 

Can't wait for my half-term break, cos I'm going to Cardiff! :3 I'd go just about anywhere if it meant getting away from London for at least a week.

New Layout [October 01, 2006 @ 9:23pm]
[ mood | accomplished ]

I've changed the layout of my journal. What do you think? Even though it was a premade layout it took me about an hour to figure out how to modify it in my own way xD The last time I did any CSS/HTML stuff was about a year ago and it shows.

Anyway, I made the header from some pics I have on my computer. The original header I made was too big and looked crap resized, so I made this quick one. I'll probably change it when I have some free time and find some better pics. 

I had to go back to the basic account though and now more than half of my icons are gone ;_; Gotta get a paid account soon.

Right, I'm off to do my history homework.

Urgh... [September 30, 2006 @ 5:04pm]
[ mood | pissed off ]

Another loss away :'( And to fucking Bolton too. I hate, hate, hate that team! 

And I couldn't even see the game, not that I regret it now, but I'm sick of missing matches, good or bad, because of these stupid classes where people study 5th grade russian and when I finished all 11 grades of russian school it's just pointless. I don't know why I bother...or yes, my future and all that...get a good grade, go to a good university, get a good job....blahblahblah...But what about now? I've never ben so tired in my life as I'm after college, plus this Saturday thing. I just don't think it's all worth it to be honest. A lot of people with hardly any education managed to do something with their lives and are just fine. I have no idea what I'm rambling on about, just pissed off about the result.

It's Friday... [September 29, 2006 @ 1:08pm]
[ mood | hopeful ]

Today my law class was cancelled, so I'm home early! :D I'm so, so relieved, because we were supposed to have a test today and I didn't study for it at all xD I did all the written homework though, so I'm not that lazy! ;)

This morning I woke up and saw a huge spider sitting on the ceiling. I'm terrified of these things, so I sprayed it with an air freshener (yes, great idea that it was xD) and it sort of jumped from there and onto tha floor and disappeared somewhere. I hate it when spiders do that, because it's going to pop up when I'm least expecting it and just scare the shit out of me xD Stupid little buggers are everywhere at the moment.

And a random moment that I remembered...on Wednesday I was watching the Liverpool game on a stream with English commentary, but it was really dodgy and kept feezing every 20 seconds or so. So, I decided to try a Chinese sports channel instead and the commentators there seemed to be delighted everytime when the Turks scored or whenever anyone got hurt. They were laughing and giggling and stuff. Weirdos xD

Oh, and I've made a header for my journal. Does anyone have an idea how can I put it up there? I'd love you forever if you can tell me xD
