i thought i thought of every single possibilty..

title: haven't met you yet - michael buble.

just learnt this song on piano. it's amazing and i love it. oldtimes now but still a great '09 track. :-) really easy to play too. :-)

so what in the world changes your day for the better?

i've been thinking about this question, because i find it really great how it's NEVER EVER the big things that make your day better. it's always the little things that make the difference.
for examples, my day is always made better when the drive to school has sunshine, because i like the trees in the sun and it makes me happyful. :-) it's also made better when the radiator is free at break or when a spontaneous compliment is given. however, if a huge thing happened like.. somebody gave me a giant teddy bear. i would just be like 'WOAH' but then if i had seven million little BAD things afterwards the teddy bear wouldn't be worth it anymore. :-)

so what makes your day that little it better? is there a certain thing you EXPECT everyday? or do you just take it as it comes? is there something you feel your day would be lost without, or even someone?

i challenge you to think about that thing. coz tbh we ALL have it. and i challenge you to show appreciation for it in one way or another. because i never realised until recently the amount of stuff i take forgranted.

fyi, i'm going to take a picture of those trees tomorrow. first thing.

what are you gonna do? tomorrow, that little thing could be gone. :-o

love, hugs + kodak moments,

kat. :-)

i just want your kisss boyyy.

title: pumpkin soup - kate nash.

i like kate nash. she's awesome. nickie just mentioned her so i thought i'd go listen some more. missed her filling my ears. her voice is the sex. she makes my ears pregnant. :-)

hello.

usually i have a blogging topic. but today that is.. lacking. so just hello will do.

i'm kinda dreading cooking tomorrow. i really cannot be bothered to cook so much in one go, and not even COOK. DEVELOP. AND to add to that i've never made what i'm making before. :-/
oh well. i'm sure it'll be okay. :-)
also got an english presentation, which i was pooing myself about, but i seriously lack in caring anymore so yeah. rather get a good grade then just panic. lol.

listening to all my october music. it's strange how music preferences change SO quickly, and what is once you're favourite song, can quickly become less interesting than ever before. haha.
death cab for cutie, i love you. hahhaa. :-)

so i feel sick. :-(

anyways. today has been fun. although the netball match was awful coz i played like a right div. hahhaa. last one of the season though, i am gutted. gonna miss you guys. :-( i hope i can somehow do something gym-wise soon. i need a membership. gonna get one :-) decided this earlier.

i'm so tired? is it me or does the darknesss make you tired? ahahhaa.

where's my camera mum? i can't find it. :-/

anyways. that was just a mishmash. i'm having a good week. ish. just wish i could have a day off. :-)

hahaha. not that i don't have sat and sunday :-)

anyways.

love, hugs + tiredness galore,

kat.

the only difference between me and you, is that i wrote the songs and you didn't.

title: the words of jamie, the drummer from noisettes. so true.

SUP GUYS.

just had the best night out at the square with our christmas light switch on.
noisettes were AMAZING and dolly rockers were pretty cool despite the fact they're like.. 5 HAHAHA. :)

so nice to see the christmas spirit (even in the rain) throughout everyone in barnstaple. i love it when everyone comes together for a night out. :) was lovely to see everyone tooo. i mean there's so much shit that goes through our group per week it's nice just to have a good time. even if it was FREEEZING. :)

so the biggest part of my evening was on my way home.
me and hly were outside the train station and we turn around and who do we see?
THE DRUMMER OF THE NOISETTES. okay. the guy we've JUST seen live, and ROCKED out barnstaple, was there. BEHIND ME.

he asks where the platform is and we show him, so he says thanks and walks off. me and hly just sit there in complete awe bedfore hly has to go home.
so then i decide to go over and ask for his autograph and after holding his suitcase for him while he finds a pen, and then signs my train ticket. :D
then a girl takes a picture of me and him for me, which was lovely. and we spent the rest of the time waiting for the train and having a lovely conversation. he speaks SO much truths..

''the only difference between me and you, is that i wrote the songs and you didn't''

''you write ten songs and you don't think that they're gonna make anything or go with each other, i mean seriously, go and write ten songs, you could be me EASY. i mean if i meet any celebrity i go weak at the knees TOO!''

''i was talking to brandon flowers, and i mean, he's SO real, he just writes about what's around him. that's why the killers are gonna last. i mean lily allen, fair enough love you're pretty, but what's all this diamond lyrics crap? she aint gonna last coz no one GETS IT''

''tbh, i thought go baby go baby go, that song, was the worst set of lyrics ever, never thought it would be a HIT!''

he was the BEST. :)

i love being at the right place, at the RIGHT time..


love, hugs + christmas twinkles,

kat.

i got soul but i'm not a soldier..

title: i got soul - young soul rebels (pixie lott, n-dubs, tinchy stryder, chipmunk, mpho, vv brown etc) in aid of war child and the work they dooo.

title isn't to do with todays post. but it's about charity and the song is amazing if you haven't heard it already..

CHILDREN IN NEED

my personal favourite time of the year. watching everyone come together is an amaazing feat in britain and i think it's probably the time in the year i feel most patriotic tbh. (: i love being british when i see what the country can do together :) it's amazing. and i'm proud. :)

children and need helps SO many people and even the smallest things make the difference. i was so pleased to see our school contributing with busking and stuff, and this year is gonna be the biggest. i'm going to stay up until children and need is over, because i love it. lets hope the total is biggg this year so we can help the biggest amount of people ever!

you guys can donate online on www.bbc.co.uk/pudsey and follow the links. please donate guys. i'm going to as soon as. (:

the running total for the south west as of now is 134,574 pounds. :) and is RISING RAPIDLY. so excited. :) every video makes me cry i swear! :)

btw, don't you just LOVE pudsey?

i don't know anyone directly but i'm so glad i don't, that's very ill or needs help from children in need. but why let that stop you? DONATE. :) it's SO worth it. trust me. :) do it for kids like us.. kids who wouldn't have our opportunities or support without the help of children in need. s'what us teens are all about right?

love, hugs + pudsey bears,

kat.

just say yes. just say there's nothing holding you back..

title: just say yes - snow patrol.

i love snow patrol. they're AMAZING. new song, go check it out.

so this isn't a blog. but it's something very close to my heart..

''i never lived as intensely as i do right now. i'm thankful for everything. i hope i did my best to be a good person. live life to the fullest'' - dustin.

waiting.

i can't imagine how many times you wait in a day. there's the smallest things like.. waiting for a bus, waiting for a lift, waiting for your computer to load. but maybe sometimes we're all waiting for the biggest things to happen, to change, to transform.
i can think of a million and one things in a day that i wait for. but what are you waiting for?
i'm unsure if you know, but i follow a guy on twitter called dustin. he has the heart of a twenty year old. but it's not his..
he's waiting.
he's waiting to die.
and he's waiting by sharing everything, his whole experience, with everyone.
i can't imagine what it would be like to wait to leave. i mean, we spend 90% of our lives waiting for something. but what if you already new your fate, and all of those things needn't resemble ANY importance anymore. what would you wait for? would you hold on? i don't know what i'd do.
so what is best for those who have to wait? to do that, or to continue? i know that sometimes waiting is the only option. and it's the climax that brings the pain, or the happiness, or the outburst of emotion. but it's the waiting that holds it all in, just waiting for it to pop. just.. waiting..
so in the words of john mayer. i think there's just one thing we ARE all waiting for.
we're ALL waiting on the world to change. change our lives? end our lives? make our day, happy, sad, or even just.. emotionless.
i know you wait. we all wait. but what are you waiting for?
sometimes. you've gotta hope. because if you're waiting in line, it means there's a possibility you'll make it to the number one spot. right?

love, hugs + a life long queue to conquer,

kat.


dedicated to everyone who experiences loss, happiness, and has ever had to wait , or even had to watch someone wait for news they don't want to hear.
stay strong.

maybe in the years to come, i'll truly understand..

title: do it all over again - sapphire elia

i really miss brittania high, it was such an amazing series. i wish they'd do another one. :( shame it's over forever. amazing song, one of my favourites from the soundtrack, if you haven't heard it you need to.

hello everybody. :)
today has been a lovely day, although stuffed, once again, with coursework, i've enjoyed it. :)
i've not really done a lot though, a history essay this morning and an A3 sheet of food. then spent this evening just doing some revision for my EXAMS tomorrow. :)
i'm so loving robbie williams new album, newton faulkners + jamie cullums new cover of rihanna's 'please don't stop the music'. if you haven't heard it already youtube it. :)
i've also found a new a capella band on youtube called green envy. they cover such great heights by the postal service and fidelity by regina spektor if you guys wanna check it out. it's also on spotify to listen. ;)
so i'm ENJOYING my new camera a little bit too much. i also have taken a love to felt tips and whiteboards and their markers. haha. :) so i went a bit crazy with them on my piano.
anyways, tired now.
exams tomorrow
toodles
love, hugs + squishy poops.

kat.

you kick up the leaves and the magic is lost..

title: bad day - daniel powter.

i just learnt this song on piano. i really love it! :) and i AM having a bad day, coursework-wise, there's SO much i just CAN'T seem to get on top of it. but i'm trying, with a little boost from my peace of mind. :) aka you guys. :)

so the title totally explains autumn. :) THE LEAVES. i love them hahahha. :) okay, the magic isn't lost thought c'mon, MAGIC is always alive. ;) especially in autumn. i love it. i took a few pictures earlier that you can see on the side over there.. --->
but indeed today has been lovely. :) apart from my coursework failing going on. i have like ALL my geography investigtions STILL. then i have like a week left to do like 4 weeks of art prep and i'm not finished for my ten hour exam, i have maths algebra homework, a draft for history due on monday, a graph to draw up for food and nutrition on A3 and i still have to revise for all my exams next week. lets be honest. school takes the piss. but i guess it's my own fault for going on a work experience week. i just didn't think it would be SUCH hard work. i'm working as hard as i can to get as much done as possible. and these are the first exams i'm REALLY worried about because i've missed so much work, which means revising HARDER which i really don't have the time to do. :(

so there's a few things bringing me happiness.
my mum, and general family.
and my photography. :)

love, hugs + piles of paper.

kat.

now i've found who i am there's no way to hold it in..

title: this is me - miley cyrus (ACOUSTIC)

i know this is the dorkiest song on earth. but it's amazing in acoustic. so there. :)

'' don't compromise yourself, you're all you've got'' - janis joplin.


i was in history the other day, and my teacher was being an absolute prick, lets be honest. i was about to explain myself, and change me story to be reasonable, until i looked up and saw THIS quote on the wall. i thought it was so suitable to my situation, and i continued to stick to me guns about this coursework piece.
which leads me nicely to the point i'm trying to make which is that signs can ALWAYS pop up. just in the completely most random places. i think it's so wierd how guidance can come from such random places.


'' i wish i had just one talent''

this is a postsecret from the new postsecret book that rosie gave me for my birthday. i found it useful as i often feel the same way. it would be so much easier to make decisions if there were one definate route for me in life. although, at the same time, i love the myseteriousness of not knowing, because it makes me feel like i can be anything i want to be. yeah, that's my secret. :) haha.
anyways, i'm tired.
i've decided lately that the word for me is 'stuck'. because that's all i appear to be. just 'stuck'.
stuck in time.
stuck in coursework.
stuck in confusion.
stuck in decisions.
stuck in mind.
stuck stuck stuck. :)
but it's okay, because sticky situations always end with a clean surface. :) and i thrive on those.

i'm gonna go. i need some sleep and thinking time.
oh + also. mum. i love you. :) that is all..

love, hugs + stuck ducks. :)

kat.

happy birthday to youuuu.

title: happy birthday - by ur.. well.. who ACTUALLY knows? in my case, everyone who sung it to me on sunday. :D

it was my birthday, incase you haven't heard me say it around twenty million times on sunday and the days leading up to it, on sunday. :) it was, and i have no doubt in saying this, THE BEST BIRTHDAY I'VE EVER HAD. :) i had such an amazing time, both at home and out for my meal with my frienndsies. :)
the first question anybody asks me when i say it was my birthday is ''oh, happy birthday for then, was it good?'' but since i've already answered that, i've decided to move onto the second. :)
''what did you get?''
well, my friends, what you're about to see is around two hours of bloody editing, a few amazing songs, and some random girl opening all of her presents on her 16th, and, needless to say, loving, EVERY SINGLE ONE. :D:D
enjoy meine petit filious. :)
btw i totally know that my video song just mucked up. :( but just mute at some point if you like. haha. :)



so on with the post. :) at around 7.30 i invited a group of 11 of my closest friends (it was a shame i couldn't have everyone) to a meal at the honeymoon, in barnstaple. you know the chinese restaurant? yeah, that one. :P
anyway, we all managed to have a lovely time, and i wore a dress! which, if you know me, is somewhat of a HUGE feat haha. :) but i was complimented, and i totally enjoyed the evening, i just hope everyone else did too! :) also, with my brand new CAMERA, (thanks mummy!) i'm able to take some pictures. not too many because i forgot to put the memory card in (oops?) but i'll show you my two favourite. (fyi, the rest are on facebook).

yes, the cake does say 'finally legal' on it. hahaha. :) thankyou so much ru, jess, bex + loz. :)

i love you all. :)

anyways, i was going to upload halloween beach pictures too but i really can't be bothered anymore. :) so i'm going to do that asap instead. sorry guys!
i just want to thank everybody that made an effort to contact me, came to my birthday or even sent a text or facebook message. it meant so much to me to have so many people wishing me on my 16th. i love youu guys so much. :)

love, hugs + candle cakes,

kat.
