I Live In EuropeThe referendum really upset everyone here. It was just so in or out. It really threw us that we voted out. It was as if the world had changed for ever. But it hasn't. Life goes on. Life hasn't ended as we know it. Some good things are emerging. We...See More »
I Love Nail VarnishOk. I take it back. On Saturday I put on a purple nail varnish. And it was only yesterday evening I thought this is bad now and cleaned it off. I saw a new nail varnish in Tesco. You got to put on the colour first. Let it dry. Then put on a clear top...See More »
I Love MusicI really do love music. I play the clarinet. I switch radio 3 on when I get up. But I don't just love classical. I love jazz especially. I look forward to the Jazz programmes on radio 3 on Saturday evenings while I get food ready for the family. I...See More »
I Want To Find My Own Secret GardenI love the idea of a secret garden, my garden isn't a secret but it's sort of mine. No-one else is interested. I have grown tomatoes, sweet peas, geraniums. Plus there are mombresia in the pond and bull rushes. I have tended the honeysuckle and a new...See More »
I Like TrainsI come from a railway family. My grandfather is a station master. He works on a branch line in Wales. It's used for carrying coal. In the school holidays I go to work with him sometimes. He's called a station master but he's in charge of the whole...See More »
I Love To Wear Feminine FragrancesI am wearing Rosie Nuit. Rosie is an M&S fragrance made from the roses that grow round Grasse. If you know about fragrances you have heard of Grasse! Rosie is something but Rosie Nuit is exotic. It comes in a dark bottle!
I Am In High SchoolI seriously can't remember how many weeks we've been back at school. It's either two or three. It seems like we never had a summer holiday. But I've been enjoying school. It's my first experience of being in the Sixth Form. It's funny but when we...See More »
I Like LondonMy school is near Regents Park. There are so many open spaces in London. Our playing field is in Regents Park near the main road. But you look out across the park and you can like see for ever.
I Love To Wear Feminine FragrancesI nearly always wear some sort of fragrance. If I am training I have impulse in my swimming bag. Training in the pool removes your fragrance! You come out with that fragrance called chlorine! Otherwise I use fragrances that are a bit nicer like...See More »
I Like LondonI like London more and more. It's amazing. It's so old and so new all at the same time. The places my grandparents spoke of are still all there. But the people are so young.
I Love KayakingI am hoping to join a club in September when things start up again. I want to advance to Star 2.
I Like TrainsI was watching a programme on tv about the AGV. In France. The TGV is awesome. And this is going to be something else. I have been travelling on the TGV for some time. It's faster than what we have, the HST.
I Want To Find My Own Secret GardenI have my own little garden. My own space. In a busy farm. And a big family. This year I planted tomatoes and I have been eating them for weeks. They keep on coming. And sweet peas and geraniums. There is honeysuckle in one corner and a pond with...See More »
I Love MusicI love music so much. I love listening and I love playing. I play the clarinet. I play classical and I try to play jazz. But jazz is more difficult I think. But my sister plays clarinet and sax. And she just improvises in a way I would love to do!
I Love Nail VarnishI varnish my nails on Saturday evening. Ready for Sunday when I go to church. Why do they advertise nail varnish that lasts 7 days and 14 days when it is chipped in two days?
I Live In EuropeI almost live in Europe. I live on an island near Europe! The weather we get I sometimes think our island is floating around. Earlier this year it was so hot and sunny I think we were down in the Med. But the last few weeks we been just off the coast...See More »
I Am In High SchoolI almost didn't post a story here. I keep coming back to this group. But I do like school. It isn't just the subjects we learn. There's so much more like the sports and the clubs. I suppose it's a huge part of my life.
I Love Cooking For People I LoveToday I cooked some blackberry pies. I had picked the blackberries yesterday. I cooked them with a bit of sugar and water in a saucepan. And made pastry. They turned out nice except I didn't put enough sugar in the blackberries.
I Love ShoppingI got most of the clothes I need for school. Except I want a coat for winter. Tesco and M&S are advertising them in their back to school brochures but you can't find them in the shops or even online. I seen the coat I want in Tesco's brochure. I find...See More »
I Love SwimmingI swam again today. For my PE lesson. You only really get 45 minutes in the water. But I practised swimming strokes and lifesaving strokes. My front crawl has got faster. I was really surprised because it's not my best stroke. I practised diving as...See More »
I Really Love the MountainsThis evening the mountains looked beautiful. It had rained all afternoon. And then the sun came out. It was shining onto the side of the mountains. The colours were awesome.
I Love SwimmingI have been swimming quite a lot this last week. I mostly do about forty lengths. And then practise dives and turns.
I Love ShoppingI quite like shopping at this time of year. All the supermarkets are full of school clothes. They have school clothes all year round but they don't stock up regularly so it's just luck if they got your size in your school colour. Right now they are...See More »
I Love the SeaThe sea is amazing. Today I cycled down the estuary on the cycle path. It wasn't completely low water but the tide was out. When I cycled back there were waves breaking where there was just mud before. But I do live by the Severn Estuary. The only...See More »
I Am In High SchoolThis is a long weekend. It's Bank Holiday tomorrow so school starts back Tuesday. I am home for the weekend. But I shall travel back tomorrow. I am really enjoying school. Especially now because we choose five subjects. All subjects I like. Also only...See More »
