she wants to move...

I had to get un unaturally early today. 8.30. not nice. I do some volunteering with barnados on saturday mornings, the Stars On Saturdays (has the rather unfortunate abbreviation of SOS). It's an activity club for young people in the area who have physical or mental disabilities. We're quite near in age so we hang out and do stuff together like table football, pool, cooking, art'n'craft. Can be tirering but fun too. Today was a little difficult, this quite sweet boy with autism got really grabby. It was ok at first, but he just kept touching me and taking me off with him. His speech is a little difficult to understand but I swear at one point he was saying something about massages. well, it was a bit creepy.we watched a video they'd made for promotion, us at halloween. looked very cute and professional. Lots of the kids had got the same cold so we were a little depleted in numbers.Now I'm home I should be revising. My mum's gone to see my grandfather. he's speaking now n they've got him a speech therapist. it's strange, because on my work exp 9speech therapy) i programmed a communication aid (like a talking computer) for an old woman who'd had a stroke. It seemed so far off, unconnected to me. I got it to say things about going bowling and getting a haircut. Last night we had another brideshead evening. As i've probably siad before, this involves a special dinner, wine and watching the video whilst discussing the various merits of jeremey irons. meal was scrummy, rose was bubbly and jermemy and julia are gorgeous as ever. Oh, to live in those times. The party-for-which I'm going as the lady of shallot is being all planned out. kitten is trying to find me a lancelot. oh lordy.Tonight I'm going to a party. yet another party! wow, go sociability. Get dressed up, get trashed and dance. I think. Sounds fun. yeah fun, not scary! Look at me, power girl. I should have a medal or something. I've not technically been invited, but am going with friends. ah, who cares. Am at the moment thinking I will go to the chocolate party afterall. My dad got me some chocolate liqueur to take. I'm gonna be popular. mmm.I'm having a girly get ready session before hand, cute. I really should be working. but just, don't, feel , like, it. got a letter from ucas today confirming my choices. it's really happening. The people we were going to do a house swap with cancelled. bastards. I really ought to go work. maybe in a little bit....toodles
