Same as my guest blog for Toni!

I'm shitting a brick!

Whilst Toni is off on her little church trip, many of us Wiganer's are left in sunny Wigan scared shittless about our A-Level results. True, I'm not off to Uni next year so therefore I shouldn't feel as scared as the likes of Vicky and Dan who need their grades to get into their chosen Univercities, but I can't help but feel if I don't do well the past two years would have been a waste.

I really hope I've done well in my art. I hope I've at least got a C. Otherwise I might just cry. My art means a lot to me. It didn't feel like just a subject... It felt more to me then that. I gave up to much of my free time to end up with a naff grade.

I'm especially nervous for our Vicky. If she got into Oxford we'd all be sooooo proud of her!

Grrrrrrrrr! Its an awful feeling this. It's a feeling that no one else seems bothered but you! But really everyone is in the same boat.

Anyway I'll try and talk about something different.

My day.

I went to Manchester by myself. I love walking round Manchester by myself. It gives you time to just think about your life, in a city which is just amazing! I love going into all the designer shops and looking at high-heeled shoes which cost nearly a grand. Just being able to hold them makes you feel like someone important. I wish I had money to buy expensive shoes. My River Island £60 shoes are the most expensive shoes I own. But still their Retail. Retail shoes come ten a penny nowadays! Its all about the designer labels!

I had a interesting discussion with Karen in the pub tonight. We where talking about protesters. When I was younger and I thought I was some sort of 21st century hippy I was all up for protesting etc. Ban the Bomb, Drop Beats Not Bombs and all that shizzle, but now I'm quite glad I didn't ever act on what I thought was right at the time... because the simple fact was... I hadn't a clue what I was arguing against.

I hate people in the world who think they understand the subtle reasons why we went to war with Iraq, why animal testing is cruel. But they don't! Sure their are a small minority of folk who have researched their side of the arguement and fully understand what their talking about... but people who are persuaded by propaganda drive me crazy.

For once me and Karen actually agreed on something!

Finally good luck to all tomorrow!
