Birthday Cake! So much Birthday Cake!

Because of various complications here at home (as in, no heating) it wasn't exactly suitable for me to have people round here for my birthday. A good friend of mine said we could have it at hers, with 2 less people, but it was no less special. Infact, we all brought a cake, and we all felt really fat & sick the next day. We watched silly films and did hardly any gossipping, actually, which is quite a first for a sleepover.

So all in all I had a lovely birthday, money from Manchester parentals, perfume and necklace from Holmfirth parental, DVD from sisterling, funny book from friend, underwear from friend. Had a generally awesome weekend, apart from Sunday which dragged by, but that was only because Saturday (5th December, that is) was entirely lovely. I enjoyed the whole day 8D even if I did get up extremely early.

In other news, Mock exams all this week and next. The English one was a blast but the Maths one, although not hard, had some silly questions in that I should have revised for. There's only so much I can cram in though, considering I had around 10 other subjects to revise for too.

Also, because the £200 from Polish grandparentals has been the funding towards this years Christmas presents for everyone (as it usually is) I decided to buy myself, apart from the Northampton tickets for TTII (AAAAA 12 DAYS!!!) a H.I.M hoodie. I've only just scraped past being overdrawn by £2 to pay for it, BUT then there was a £20 service charge. Another one? Yes. Goddamn shipping costs - I thought they'd already been covered in the total cost taken out of my account. Lucky that mother was there to save my skin, however, she didn't need to get angry about it. I just told her don't buy me anything for Christmas :) I already owe her a lot, and there's no point buying me anything when the money could be better used for other things.

I just think that if she gave up her smoking habits & drinking habits, or at least cut down, then she'd have a lot more money to spend on other things. More important things. I don't have any silly habits like that. But I think it's selfish of her to spend living money on stuff like that every week and then shout at me for having to pay for something I can pay her back for. I know it's all her money but... I do have issues with how she uses it.
