This is not good. Not good at all. Don't know if I mentioned it anywhere, but my laptop (which was a really old hand-me-down from my granddad; not a nice new shiny one) is dead. It was very sad. I just switched it on one day to find that all the memory had been wiped. Freaked out, I decided that I would restart it and somehow that would magically make it all better. But guess what? The laptop refused to even turn on. My Dad (who is somewhat of a computer genious) has had a look at it and has agreed that it is in fact gone.

But it only just dawned on me.

I think I did actually mention this somewhere. I started writing a new Warrior Cats fanfic at around Hogmanay. Yes, I know, how shocking; Smudge is actually writing again! Well, usually, if I type any sort of story/essay/piece of writing up onto the computer, I will always keep a written version of it. Or at least a piece of paper with a summary of what I'd written. However, lately (when I say lately, I actually mean November last year) I have started to get really lazy. Which is awful and terrible and really, really bad, I know. I'm guessing you guys already know what I am getting at...

Yes, I didn't keep a written version of my story or save it anywhere else and it has now been deleted off my computer. Stupid, stupid, stupid. And I was about seven chapters in (which, for me, is amazing because I never ever finish any of my stories) and I wanted to enter it into the Awards thingy and everything. Uggh!

So sorry about that. I am guessing that it may take quite a while to recreate it all.

As we're already on the topic of Smudge's foolishness, I shall list down below a couple of the thoughtless things that I have done. Laugh at me if you wish.


 * Breaking my arm at the Soft Bear Center on the padded trampoline. The saddest thing about that one was that I was about eight/nine years old when I did it. Why the heck was I even at the Soft Bear Center?! That was pretty... skillful actually. It was a pretty bad break too. I was in a cast for at least four/five weeks.
 * Leaving my Book of Ideas outside. Yes, I actually called it my Book of Ideas. It was a very special notebook. I wrote everything in it. Everything. And then I was outside with it and I left it on a rock. Living in Scotland, the weather is pretty awful, so you can guess what happened next. It rained... I tried to dry it out but it just ended up growing mould.
 * Walking into so many wrong classrooms. Have you ever done it? I wouldn't recommend that you try it out. Okay if your a little First Year who's new to the school, that's fine. But I'm a Third Year. I can leave school... well, next year. And I did it last week. Also, whenever I do it, I get incredibley embarrassed and rubbish just pours out of my mouth. Just pure nonsense.
 * And wrong rooms. I remember this so clearly. It was at Christmas. My family always sleeps in the same bedroom when we go to my Grannie's. But this particular year, my uncle had invited his new girlfriend round to stay. They got the room, everybody else got a sofa/chair and I had to share a mattress up in the attic with my second cousins. Well, you can guess what happened. I absent-mindedly walked into the bedroom. The new girlfriend had just come from the shower. And I could never look her in the eye again.
 * My general clumsiness. A disaster on legs is what I am. My P.E. teacher used me as an example of how not to play hocket. I am able to fall up stairs. And down them of course. I fall down them pretty much everytime I enter our school.

I can't seem to think of anything else even though I'm positive that there is so much more. Oh - I used to sleep walk!

Moving on.

I don't think I have anything else to share...

Oh! Except I was in a really good mood when I walked out of Specsavers yesterday. That was a really weird sentence to write as I hate that place with a passion. Anyway, some (most) of you probably don't know that I'm a glasses-wearer. I've always despised glasses up until, well, now. Not entirely sure what changed. Although I think it's because I got contact lenses (hooray!!) so I now I don't absaloutely have to wear glasses all the time now. I have a choice. Which I like. Also, I managed to find some pretty decent looking frames in Specsavers (which is surprisingly hard as they all seem to be really yucky and chunky) and so I get really excited whenever I put them on.

Yes, I get excited about silly things.

And yes, I'm going to shut up now!

Bye! Have a nice day!! :)
