“Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.”

I have been dreaming about talking to 'turkeys' about Christmas dinner.

I have been working extremely hard and finally feel comfortable enough with 'The Kite Runner' to write about it objectively.

I have finally realised the extent of my own passion for History - it's my best subject.

I have been getting closer to my awesome new friends up here in the drizzly Midlands.

I have been talking to truths and standing up to lies.

I have just begun a new book for Literature - 'A Small Island' by Andrea Levy. I'm on page twenty six and already enjoying the atmosphere of it muchly.

I have not yet gained the ability to stop singing the Hairspray soundtrack at random moments throughout the day.

I have got to stop beginning sentences with 'I have'.

Toodley-poodleys!
