Guess who's back? Back again

Yooooo It's me! I'm not going to lie. I definately almost forgot about updating this blog, but i'm currently procrastinating doing my DT coursework and happened to remember this blog. If i'm being completely honest, i've been thinking about deleting some of the posts on this blog. A lot of them are weirdly personal and i feel awkward having them up for public view. I like the idea of being able to look back on those posts as i grow to see how much i've changed, but at the same time the thought that ANYONE can see them makes me uncomfortable. I'm still debating it but i'm leaning more towards deleting them if i'm honest. I'm going to see Sonic 2 for the second time today! I'm so excited about it. I went to see it with a friend last week and despite knowing absolutely nothing about sonic i loved the movie so much. It was just so entertaining and the animation was absolutely incredible. I could gush about this movie for hours. It was just everything i love in a movie. Man it's just so good. It's almost the end of the easter holidays which i am not looking forwards to... i have a lot of mocks coming up after the holdiays which i am absolutely DREADING. I'm still trying to finish my DT coursework so revising has been put a bit on the backburner. Thankfully, there's still a little time until my actual exams but it's still stressing me out so much. On top of that i seem to have completely forgotten how to use this website. When i was younger i knew this site like the back of my hand but it seems like i've lost almost all of that knowledge. There's so much stuff i'd like to change but i just cannot for the life of me figure out how to do it. Anyway, i think that's enough procrastination for today. Time to go back to researching metal joining methods whilst battlebot clips play in the background. Ryn

Hi

 So this is weird. I hadn't even thought about this blog in years but today i decided that i might try this blogging thing again. I can't guarantee that i'll be posting regularly (I've sort of forgotten how to write a blog if i'm honest) or if this motivation will be a one-time thing and i'll never post again after this. But i'll be trying to post at least a few more times. I have so many fond memories of writing on this blog as a kid so i won't be changing the aesthetics of it too much but i have changed a few things that i felt were a little TOO outdated.

So many things have happened since i last posted. I don't think i have enough time to type everything out so i'll try to just cover the things that are currently relevent to me. I'm currently close to finishing my A-levels and i can't wait until they're finished. They're so stressful and i regret my options so much. I picked maths, chemistry and product design. I love product design (even though i'm stressed about finishing the coursework) but maths and chemistry suck so much. I'm struggling so much in these classes but i'm studying to try and help myself understand these subjects a little more. And if anyone else reads this who's struggling in school just remember that grades aren't everything. Everyone has something they're good at and there are such a wide variety of education paths and jobs that you'll definately be able to find something. You just have to keep looking.

I've also started learning to drive recently! I started a little late compared to others my age but i'm trying my best. I'm not perfect at it and i have made quite a lot of mistakes but i'm getting better every lesson. I accidentally put the handbrake on whilst trying to change gears last lesson (I'm learning manual).  Luckily i fixed it immediantly but it was still incredibly embarassing.

Anyway i'm actually procrastinating doing my product design coursework right now so i'd better get back to that. Writing this was actually pretty fun, so maybe i'll write again soon. No promises though. Also just realised that this doesn't have a spellchecker so if i've spelled a word wrong feel free to let me know.

Opening for a book.


This is a opening for a book I've been working on, how do you like it?

MUTATION!
Chapter 1

It was just a ordinary day in a ordinary school,or so Poppy thought...“X divided by 7 =14.28571428571426 blah blah blah blah blah blah,”the maths teacher droned on and on as the swots scribbled and the idiots chucked paper planes Poppy cringed as a spit ball hit the back of her neck. “EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,”screeched emergency alarm as teachers swarmed in pushing and pulling children towards the door. “Schnitzel!”Cried Poppy
fighting her way through the crowd “ Schnitzel!” Then silence. “whoosh” she peered through the window a ball of big red hurtling towards her...


Chapter 2


Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,” Poppy groaned as she shifted all the rubble off her aching body she blinked taking in the drastic change of light as she stood up quickly scouting around for something to lean on she finally settled for a gnarled bit of wood, she quickly hobbled painfully towards a derelict old house. A fly slowly crawled across the wall, she flicked at it absent mindedly and jumped back as the whole house collapsed. What’s happening to me, thought Poppy picking her way through the ruins of the house. Crunch! A shard of glass cracked under the weight of her foot. Poppy picked up a fragment and gasped her usually auburn hair was as black as the darkest night and her green eyes were now turquoise blue. Why did I have to stay in that class room? she cursed. Why? The it struck her. Schnitzel! She sprinted towards the debris. Please don't be dead she willed please. Every time her feet touched the ground huge cracks split the Earth. She reached the wreckage and started digging “Schnitzel!” She cried “Schnitzel!” Suddenly in a burst of broken bricks and feathers something or some one came bursting out of the pieces “Schnitzel!” She yelled tears poring down her face. The parrot settled on her shoulder. She shivered was it her imagination or was his beak a little sharper than she remembered? “Oh Schnitzel,” she murmurer “what's happening to me?” The parrot cocked his head and tweeted.

Chapter 3

Poppy's hand hovered over her door before changing her mind and slipping her key into the lock and opening the door. She slipped inside. The site of her parents beds brought tears to her eyes she slipped into bed fully clothed and fell strait to sleep. She was momentarily confused for a second as she woke up and as the truth hit her she gave a rattling sob and curled up into a tight ball.
