Howdy. It's seemed like forever since I've posted a new blog. And many-a-thing has been rocking my boat since last time.
Jury Service was excellent. It was exciting to sit inside a real jury box and listen to evidence. It was scary to think that our 12 decisions could affect someones life overall. I got onto 2 cases. I was very lucky to see two extremely different type of case. One was for sexual abuse between a father and his daughter(very distressing) and another was GBH. In all, I felt I learnt something new in all of them and taught myself to expand my decision making and to be more assertive.
Funnily enough, the first day I was bricking myself with fear that I would not know anyone and know what to do. Everyone was friendly and we all got £5.50 dinner card a day for hot meals and drinks. About half an hour into the first day. I spotted someone. She looked really familiar. It was only my old best friend/next door neighbour. I was sooo happy. We hadnt seen each other in a long time and she didnt recognise me at first. But in all, those 2 weeks (off work tehehe) and learning to be a juror was one of the most exciting things i've ever done and i'm glad I got the chance to go through with it.
Furthermore, I've been working alot of my shorthand. But I need to keep pushing myself. It's like another language and i'm getting really frustrated with it because I feel like I'm not getting anywhere with it. But keep going emma. you'll get there :)
Plus. I went to see Josh last weekend. It was lovely just to chill out and my mom and nick went to prague for a few days so I was responsible for the woggies. Getting up at 7am every morning to walk the little critters was not the highlight of my week off. But exciting.
NEW THINGS TO COME.

pub times, muff and crimes
And so it begins. A new year full of drinking, friendly festivities, and many good nights out. So far, it's all been a giant success of pure freedom, apart from work. Tonight was funny as shit. Took alot of pictures of me and my crazy friends generally being what we are. Teenagers who swear and dye our hair different colours more times than you change yer pants. but i wouldnt change a bloody thing. I took some incredibly funny images tonight. My best friend purnellio (who i dont get to see often enough, came to sit next to me and we had a good old chat). I put on her heart muffs. (yeah, alright?) The string of photographs begun. Then sophie wanted to try on beckys muffs. SHe did. HER FAT HEAD BROKE THEM. poor becky. here are the pictures. goodnight. x

happy 2010
A new year. A new start. A new blog! OHAAAALAA! im alive. only just.
christmas and new year has just whipped by. so fast, i may actually have whiplash..
ive just uploaded some pictures from the Lake District. Back in the summer of 09, me, josh and his family hit the beautiful village to relax, chill and do a varied amount of mountain walks. This picture I spontaneously took as I thought it was at first, a dog. how wrong could i be?
it was a miniture pony. possibly a shetland but even smaller. crikey.
I have started back at work today and Im shattered already. Need to search for a new lense for my canon camera and buy a tripod and some lights. got a million weddings to focus on this year.
new stuff new stuff.

Today is the day
Where my extremely weird lifestyle begins, once again.
It's Easter, and I'm absolutely livid that only 2 chocolate eggs have been demolished by myself.
Expecting at least 4 or 5, i'm either elequently selfish, or incredibly hungry. Either way, this is not good.
25th Of March, the day where a girl feels more like a woman than ever before.
The day, I finally understand who I am, why I am, and point blanc, How i've come to be like I am.
It was 10:15. My alarm clock was set on my phone. Oblivious to what I was doing, I cancelled it and fell back to sleep. Bad idea on my behalf. The next thing I knew, Emmor was rushing down the stairs,(Hello third person), only to open the door to my driving instructor. He looked more bedazzled than I did. Who wouldnt be whilst facing an oversleeping, scruffy haired, death warmed up looking, creature from her bedroom. Overcoming the embarrassment and confusing state I was understand, racing for the bedroom sure made the blood drain away from my brain.
Suprisingly, i've never felt so awake in all my life.
Driving around with no care in the world is fun. Especially when you have only just woken up two minutes before. My brain was telling me, this isnt safe, this isn't safe. However, my instructor suggsted I have 5 minutes rest in the car before driving, away safely. Nice one.
Whilst returning back from my lesson, (number 25), I walked into the house to hear screaming westies. They're eight weeks old today and day by day, it's getting harder to realise and understand, that soon, they'll be leaving the Stokes residence. Unfortuntely, it has to be done.
The carvery with the Pyzer family, was a delight. It always is. I love the family completely and having Joshua as a boyfriend, makes me feel like i'm the luckiest person alive. It's cliche to say, but I do actually feel like the only woman in the world when i'm around him. It's so comfortable, yet suprising, I still get butterflies when I see him. Love is a very powerful thing, I reckon.
Even though I would not let him sleep when he returned to my house, I felt bad, but once you're in my bedroom, theres no time for sleeping. Snuggling, hugging, kissing, tv'ing, is what it's all about :)
Overall, today was a success. Amongst finding out several things which I'm not allowed to tell anyone until, soon when everyone will eventually find out. It's extremely hard on my behalf as, quite bluntly, I feel like i'm keep secrets away from everyone. But, for the best it shall be.
It's 10:40 and i'm about to watch Harry hill's tv burps and gain some sleep for tomorrows events with myself and Purnellio. It's not a good thing when you don't get to see your besties everyday:(
Tomorrow shall be special.
Every day is special.
Tomorrow is a new day.
