Why am I depressed one minute and happy the next?

Ok, is it part of teenagery life, or is it just me?
Coz today in German, i suddenly started crying. Like, not noticably, not actual tears, but this huge feeling sadness sort of washed over me. I can't really desccribe it.
Can any adult help? Is this normal?

Anyway, we also had music today - my music teacher is completely unreasonable and grumpy and annoying, so I wasn't exactly looking forward to it. But we performed "Your Song" by Elton John in our group, and i sang and it was amazing and all the boys looked at me all impressed, and i felt so special.

Strange how u can feel about a thousand emotions in one day....

Nerves, Films and fun times!

Today was so cool!

First of all, it was my Film Skool Premiere. (Film Skool is this after-school project I joined last term. We were put into groups- I was with all my friends :D - and then we wrote, directed, produced, acted and edited our own movie! We had just one day to film it in and 10 hrs to edit it! It was SO much fun! And I was with all my friends and some cute guys! ;D) Anyway, so we all went to this cinema. I was expecting there to be about 30 people there, and it to be in a really small place. But it was in a proper cinema and there were, like 100 people!!! So all my group were getting nervous, coz if our film was really bad, it would be so embarrassing. But it was really good. Way better than I'd expected! So that was pretty cool! :)

Then me, my dad and my two little brothers went to the cinema (a different one!) to see "UP"in 3D. It's actually pretty good. Not so much funny as moving.... hmmm.... I never thought I hear myself say that a Pixar animation was moving..... I must be cracking up!

Now, i've just read at church for the first time, and I didn't do too badly if I do say so myself! I had a good reading anywho, so it was easier. Just one sad part though. I heard from the mum of this guy who used to go to my primary school that a really nice girl who also went has got cancer. I know this sounds weird, but I never thought that a person my own age who I knew would get cancer. It's just... strange.

Going on to a happier note, now I've got the "Highbury Soul Band" gig. I'm just a backing singer. My brother plays the trumpet, and he was part of the original group. I just got asked coz they needed backing singers. I'd love to sing main, but the woman who co-runs it likes her daughter to do all the "young girl" numbers, which I can totally understand. Its just a bit annoying. And I've only had one rehearsal, sooooo..... not quite sure how this is going to turn out...... oh well, lets hope for the best!

Love u all loads!!!!

Problems, boyfriends and cereal humiliation

Ok, so hi to everyone who's reading this! You know you're amazing for bothering to read this, so I won't compliment you any further! Still, I think you're all great (and losers who have nothing better to do..... just kidding!)

So anyway, my life is not going amazingly at the moment, to say the least. Here are the top 5 reasons why:

5. I just got braces and I'll have to have them on for at least a year.

4. I'm fighting and arguing with my brother, Will ALL the time.

3. I feel like my singing is going down hill

2. I'm getting increasingly worried about my appearance

and no 1. I don't have a boyfriend!!!

And ok, I know what you're thinking. "Those are the smallest problems ever. I'm worrying about my mortgage, my troublesome teenage son, my very quiet young daughter and my elderly mother AND I havea normal job to keep, plus doing all the housework. AND Christmas is coming up."

Well, I apologise for moaning about my problems, and I feel sorry for you, obviously. But to me, having a boyfriend is very important. Trust me. I don't know how old you are, and I don't know what your situation is at the moment, but what I do know is that when you're a teenage girl, having a boyfriend is a very big deal. It's not just because it's a "symbol" or whatever, it's just it would be nice to know that someone out there, some boy actually thinks you're pretty and fun to be around. Thats what would be nice. Or to wake up in the morning and check your phone, and you have a cute message on it. Or to be in form on Valentine's Day, when the sixth formers are coming round with roses, and you're not expecting anything, and then you get a beautiful red rose, and everyone looks at you, jealously.

Anyways, moving on from a rather personal topic....... today was ok, i guess. As I said, I've just had my braces in, so they really hurt when I eat. So that meant I couldn't eat my amazingly nice chicken tikka sandwich. Or the chewing gum Uma offered me. Or the jelly tots Helen had. So that wasn't too good. But the rest of the day wasn't too bad. Nothing special, just everyday normal stuff.

Oh yeah! We had some major discussion in Maths about cereal. Now, I do realise that is extremely weird, but me and my friends are like that. Anyway, so me and Simrun and Aubrey and Helen and Poley were having a masive debate about which type of cereal is best. Now, I would definitely say Jordans Country Crisp (the strawberry one. It is the yummiest cereal ever, but we're only allowed it in the holidays in my house because it goes so quickly!) But Helen said Cocoa Pops are definitely the best, and Poley backed her up. (he would, they're going out) Aubrey backed me up, and Simrun said Honey Cheerios. So we're all not doing our simultaneous equations and arguing about which is nicer when suddenly this loud "ahem" comes from behind us. There is Miss Maurice, hands on hips, glaring at us. The entire class has been listening to our conversation for about 5 mins. I turned so red!

I have to sign off now, coz my mum's calling. I'll probably come back tomorrow and write more, as an "emotional outlet" as my IT teacher calls blogs. But I have ballet and piano tomorrow, so I'm not sure. Oh whoops, I'm rambling again, sorry!

Cya eventually!
