Ciao!
My older brother is leaving home for 2 weeks to go to fly to Italy.
He's currently finishing off packing and checking he has everything as his flight is at 6am, and it's only midnight right now and I can tell he's quite nervous to to this.
He even started reading 'Learn to speak Italian: For Dummies', which by the way is mine.
It's so unfair how he's already finished with his school year and he gets to travel ,I actually wanted to go with him but nonetheless I'm quite happy for him .
I never thought I will say this but the house is going to be so empty without him, it's always like that when one member of the family is missing.
I think I will miss him, a bit.
He better buy me something while he's there.
We have already established that he's going to take selfies and photos at the places he visits following posting them on Facebook. Which should be fun enough, like in a cool movie or something.
Mum is probably going to be worried, her first born is already flying out of the nest. I can guarantee you she's going to Skype him everyday, at least twice.
He packed 4 baguettes (them small ones) for his journey.
Peace out.
(Might post some pics when he actually gets there, hope is a photo of an Italian pizza or something.)

You coming on a bear hunt?
My birthday was last month, 27th of May.
I turned 17.
It didn't bother me as much as turning 16 did, but the thought I'm going to be 18 in a year is just so scary.
I still feel like a 15 year old, only I'm a bit smarter now & better at decision making.
I got a "We're going on a bear hunt" children's book along with other gifts from Trevor. We always recited the book but never got past the 'Thick oozy mud', not even that we called it 'Icky Sticky mud' (which I prefer much better).
Never knew how the actual bear hunt ended until I read it.
Want a spoiler?
*SPOILER ALERT*
They find the bear and they run away with the bear chasing them.
They hide under the covers and wait for the bear to go away.
He walks off, slightly disappointed.
What if he only wanted someone to talk to?
To be honest, I feel kind of sorry for him.
Whereas my family bought me a real fountain pen. How cool is that?
I collect stationery and notebooks, so that was literally a perfect present.
When the black ink dries, it actually gives like a nice dark greyish colour you can find on old documents.
Peace out.
Put on your friday clothes!
Have you ever watched the film WALL-E?
I have to say that the general plot in the film is pretty original, I didn't expect that at all.
The collaboration of the artists from both animation companies made the soundtrack to the film is truly beautiful.
The instrumentals, like.. I'm not even a fan of classical music or instrumentals but it's just so well put together.
I didn't really give it a thought until i started humming the song WALL-E played on his TV randomly while doing my homework, then I realised that I have no idea what it's called.
I literally googled: "What's the song WALL-E plays on his TV in the movie?"
Turns out that there were 2 songs from an old film 'Hello, Dolly!'
The one that I was humming was 'Put on your Sunday clothes'.
I might or might not be obsessed with it, the lyrics are awesome and fun to sing along to whereas the melody is so cheerful.
I would strongly advise you to give it a go: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7pRJvNAJt0
Listening to it makes me so happy.
I want you to be happy.
Peace out.

Awkward moment of the day.. Yesterday.
When walking out of biology for our lunch break, the class made their way to the stair case located at the end of the corridor.
Making our way down, Mehwish dropped her ID card and her phone on the middle bit of the stair case..
![]() |
Extract from my notebook, I wrote a draft of the post on my way to college. |
Being the good friend i am, I decided to help a friend in need, not knowing of the terrible events that followed.
I wanted to bend down but ended up squatting to touch the floor, as i had my backpack on I had to lean forward to reach the phone but having a heavy folder and a laptop inside it did not help at all.
I lost my balance, tried to regain it but toppled over instead so that my bum was sitting on the ground.
I proceeded to laugh hysterically as my classmates standing around me shot me confused looks.
I picked up the phone and stripped of any dignity continued my way down the stairs, regaining air in my lungs.
I have to tell you, when i laugh it literally sounds like somebody is crying. Like I deeply exhale and then try to inhale to replace the air and it makes like a high-pitched noise...
Peace out and have an awkward day!
The encounter.
I had biology catch up to attend today at 2pm.
But to make it into college on time and drop into McDonald's on the way to grab a snack, I had to leave the house at 12:30.
Pretty straightforward, right?
Once again, my neighbours had to complicate the matter.
Guess.. Just guess what happened. Want a clue?
It appeared that the girl next door brought a friend with her home during her lunch break I presume, I mean.. Our road is literally 10 minutes away from the school so why would they be at home so early otherwise?
So the action begins here: They took 2 white plastic garden chairs, and proceeded to suntan in the front garden.
I know, it doesn't sound outrageous or anything but read on..
At 20 degrees Celsius outside, they were wearing like bikini tops and super short shorts (bear in mind they are like 15), almost like they think they are on holiday in Egypt or somewhere.
This is not the worst part.
This is the worst part: It bothered me so much because if you see the structure and location of our front gardens (attached below) you can see that I would have to walk right next to them when exiting my house and making my way to the bus stop.
Like they were oiling themselves and whatnot.
As if that isn't awkward enough.. Upon getting ready and literally pressing the handle I took a last look at them while formulating my plan of escape.
I thought I was ready but at that exact moment they decided that it would be a brilliant idea if the friend went on the road outside my house and play the game of "sexy poses" (wow that's a phrase i never thought i would use ever on this blog).
I literally don't know what kind of sick joke that was but I had to look at the idiotic behaviour the girl happened to demonstrate, that was because I decided that as soon as she sits down; I storm out of the house and quicken my pace whilst looking down on the floor avoiding eye contact.
I had to be ready.. It could happen at any second.
I was already late as the girl took 5 minutes auditioning for the role of an Avon swimwear model while attempting to bend down and drag her hand across her leg, It's just disturbing.
Needless to mention their idea of fun is my idea of making a fool out of yourself.
What were they even thinking?
As soon as her bottom touched the chair I decided that: It's either now, or never.
This was my only chance, I discretely closed my front door and put on an act that I am so pre-occupied with choosing a song on my phone that I didn't even notice they were there.
Never walked so fast in my life.
Mission: Success.
When passing the McDonald's in Harrow I realised I forgot my voucher.
Sad life.
Peace out.

The funky plunkies in other words my lovable weirdos.
My college friends requested a blog post about them, they want to use my popularity to get in the media .(^-^).
They can be clingy, annoying, irritating, needy and just plain silly, they are even capable of leaving 169 messages on my whatsapp in a matter of 3 hours of not going on my phone.
But the truth is that they're a lot of support, and they cheer me up whenever I am not feeling it they literally have me laughing to the point my non-existent abs hurt.. They are the best people I could ask for after moving my college campus, they accepted me and took me in their own little group, well it's the biggest friend group I was ever in, I mean there's fluffin' 6 of us but that means that there is 6 funky plunkies and that's an awesome thing.
I finally fit in, and fitting in not in a way that I copy their style or way that they speak or that I am very similar to them, it's more of a fitting in in a sense that I have my own place in the group and I want to add it's a pretty comfortable place.
Each of us is so different and that makes our group so cool and fun.
Salmo:
The girly girl of our group, her favourite colour is pink. She likes white boys and has had past experiences with skirts falling down and she often complains about her ankle boots that she wears in the summer.
When we were rushing out of the class one Tuesday she didn't realize that she's supposed to turn and she ran into a pile of chairs, needless to say I was laughing my head off as I was the only one actually seeing her trip over.
When she talks she just simply cannot keep still, swinging from side to side.
She's rather absent minded and at times dopey to the point it is funny, but honestly we all love her.
Mehwish:
Described pretty much everything about her in by earlier blog post that you can find under this link: http://dreamercalledagata.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/my-friend-mehwish.html
All I can say is that she is honestly ''OUT OF ORDER.'' She is the cuddly bear in the group, she has an excellent sense of humor. Her Scottish accent is pretty good for someone that has only visited Scotland for less than a week. She's good with water colours, which is totally not fair as I just cannot use them to save my life.
She's the kind of person you can mess around with but also have proper deep conversations with.
Maryam:
Claims to be the Alpha but we all know she's a beta ;) only joking, the 2 Maryiams (see what I did there? I merged their names together.. nevermind) compete for being the Alpha Maryiam in our Wolf Gang. She is totally sweet and I can really tell she values all of us. She is charming, modest and sincere. She only takes selfies that show her nose piercing on the left side of her face, making her selfies look like somebody took them at an awkward angle when she was not looking, very Tumblr as the youngsters would say. Her face just makes me smile, like her facial expressions are very amusing.
Marina:
She might be the most honest person in the group, she always says what she thinks. She's brave, like would not be able to do things she does. She's pretty funny, one of those people who speak seriously and slip in a little joke at the end of the sentence that has everyone around her crack up.
She enjoys eating banana muffins (that's pretty much everything she eats from the canteen) and she sometimes brings weird foreign food into college. What I find funny about her is that I always see her with a pencil/pen in her hair, she does one of those Chinese hair buns that she holds up with the stationery. She's one of those open people that tell you what she is thinking or worried about.
Mariam:
Her past as a tomboy involved getting her knees covered in mud on a football field in Germany.
Her German accent is very cute and instead of saying 'It was' she says: 'Twas' like a lady living in the Shakespearean times. She often giggles at the silliest of things and she busts the stupidest jokes on earth but I guess I'm the sort of person that finds them hilarious (she tried to plug a charger to a USB port in my laptop :P)
She just said: ''Life if hard.. with Agata.'' She enjoys scribbling on blank pieces of paper, I mean ALL the time she just scribbles or as she calls it 'sketches' us.
She's very hard-working, like one time she pulled an all-nighter and she was walking around like a zombie for a day just for the sake of finishing her assignment. I would describe her as lazy but dedicated.
That's all folks.
Peace out.

My own Fofo.
Fofo means 'cute' in Portuguese, at least that's what Marina told me. For all I know it can mean 'elbow' or something completely random.
I have my eye on this guy in college, he's pretty fofo in my opinion. He has a wacky sense of style and his curly hair is beyond any control, he looks like a tall human version of 'Peregrin Took' from Lord of the rings.
My predictions are that he is on his second year in the college, which means that I won't be seeing him around next year, which is rather sad.
I don't know his name or anything about him but he looks like a geek and that's enough for me.
What can I say? I just love wacky geeks.
I'm obviously not going to go up to him and ask him for his name. I am probably just going to talk about how cute he is behind his back. It's better that way.
I have never admitted to any of my crushes that I like them and maybe that's why I am going to die alone. Or maybe I will have a dog, yup! a dog is enough.
Peace out.
