12months, 2 weeks, 2 days...

Till I turn 18 and I head to Belfast to get my piercings. I went up on Thursday to see if I could get some done. But what I want done, you must be 18 for. I begged and almost started to cry (yes that's how much I want these piercings) but he said he wouldn't. So I left the shop rather unimpressed and upset. Then came the devising of lots of plans. Now I could quite easily go down south and get them done, but draw back is that I don't get the piercer I want and trust. So I have decided to wait, to get the person I want and trust to do them for me and another thing is that I have had piercings from him before which healed really well, so did dads. So I know he's dam good at what he does. Plus he's really nice and chats away to relax ya. So I still want some piercings now so am thinking of getting my lip done, just need to talk dad round to it hehe. But dad then agreed to pay for all my piercings to be done next year, so yay for that. I am now counting down to it hehe.

Had clinic on Thursday too. Lung functions are up but weight and sats are down. This would explain general shortness of breath and the fact that my appetite has seemed to have gone on hoildays :p But at least lung functions are going UP. Normally they hit 33 and stop but nope I got to 34. You would think 1% wouldn't make a differnce, but mentally it does, it means 'hah look I can get better' even if only a tiny bit! My consultant also told me he reckons I won't grow anymore :| Not what I wanted to hear. I was living in the hope that I may grow even just a tiny bit more. But um no. So got a dexa bone scan in January some time to check my bones. I've been meant to be taking calcium supplaments for the past two years. I havn't. I have tried all forms of supplament and I can't stand them. So god knows what my bones will be like. Eek. Ah well I drink lots of milk and eat cheese so hopefully they won't be that bad. I've also been runin temps the past few days which I mentioned yersterday. We are putting it down to the IV's clearing out my lungs. So objectives after clinic, eat little and often, keep an eye on temps and hopefully finish IV's next friday. YAY!

On the school front, my physics tutor starts next week. I am actually glad it's starting soon, I have missed so much I jst need to get caught up. ICT is going well It's just revision for our exam now. History is, um, intresting. I hate Russian history, it is boring and not fun. Actually I generally only enjoy learning about a war. I don't know why. But I like learning their motivations, their tactics, and how they were defeated or how they won. It also really intrigues me as to no matter who they are, be it Hitler or George Bush, they do genuilnly believe that they are doing the right thing by their country. Take Hitler, he wanted his country to be all dominent, powerful and perfect, he saw his killing of millions 'OK' as it was for the greater good. Geroge Bush, he thought he was freeing the Iraq people from an evil ruler, when all he has done is cause a hell of alot more trouble. I guess it's just down to how they view the world. But I love learning about that. Hmm slightly side tracked. Anyway, my point being, I do not care about how or why the Reds took power in Russia, I do not care how the Tsar got overthrown. But only another week or so of that then onto Germany!! YAY!

Anyways I'm off to snooze before going and being very busy.
