I can&#8217;t keep up updating the site like I used to. <img src='http://echo-park.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p></blockquote>
<p>It was my last day of school on Friday 14 May 2010. Last day of compulsary schooling. <img src='http://echo-park.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Now I get to do lots of exams!</p>
<p>On Friday we had the school prom. It was amazing. My friends and I were going to get a limo but they cost over £200 which meant we would all have to pay something like £35 each which was way too expensive. Plus some people couldn&#8217;t make up their minds if they were going or not too! We ended up going in a people carrier! We got more time to get ready though, if you had a limo you had to drive around for an hour before they dropped you off at school. Some people came in an open top bus and a group of girls came in a tractor! They must of been freezing because we were cold in the car!</p>
<p>We had a professional photographer, a banquet hall and human statues! We were dancing near this one statues and then it moved and tapped my friends shoulder! It scared the hell out of us, then we realised they were human. =S</p>
<p>Near the end we went to the banquet hall and the woman who was looking after the food said &#8220;Take a handful, they&#8217;re not going to get eaten now.&#8221; So we all grabbed as much as we could and stuffed our handbags full of sweets. Mine was hard to shut anyway with my camera and phone in it! =S</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll leave you with the photos! <img src='http://echo-park.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today my schools Jazz Band, which I play my flute in, was <strong>live</strong> on the county radio. It was really nerve racking because we&#8217;ve never been on the radio before, but we only had to play 1 minute of one song.<br />
We played the new song which we&#8217;ve been practising called <em>Cantaloupe Island</em>.</p>
<p>We were on the radio to try and promote some of our concerts which are to raise money for our tour to Beijing in August!</p>
<p>We all set up, and tuned our instruments and then the woman walked in with <u>one microphone</u>! It was quite funny, but it made us sound flat. =( My Dad recorded it for my Mum and my Grandparents. Apparently the whole school was listening to it so when we went back to lessons everyone was like, &#8220;was that live?&#8221; &#8220;Your really good!&#8221; And stuff like that! It made me feel proud and reminded me why I play my flute in groups and concerts and stuff! =D<br />
I still can&#8217;t get over the fact that I&#8217;m going to China and playing flute and we were just live on the radio.</p>
<p>We were supposed to play <em>1 minute</em> of the song like I said but the presenter didn&#8217;t want us to stop so we played the <strong>whole 5 minute song</strong>! The presenter then couldn&#8217;t stop talking about how good we were afterwards which was funny. Plus people were still phoning in about our performance <u>10 minutes</u> afterwards!</p>
<p>It was an amazing opportunity and that&#8217;s one more thing I can cross off my list of things I want to achieve!</p>
<p><em>Have you ever been on the radio? And what do you want to achieve in your life?</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My school is one of those technology and arts schools. So you would expect computers that turn on and are connected to the network and what have you. Yet somehow our <em>techno-savvy</em> (is that even a word?) school cannot do that.</p>
<p>I sat down in the design computer room and pressed the power button. Nothing. I pressed it again. Still nothing. So I move to another computer. Press the power button and the computer starts to wirr. I sit back and wait for it to load.</p>
<p><em>5 minutes</em> later and the computer screen is still blank. Silly me, I hadn&#8217;t turned the screen on. Nope it wasn&#8217;t even connected to the computer! The screen lights up with the log on screen and I type in my username and password. I sat there for <em>15 minutes</em> wondering why it wasn&#8217;t letting me log on, thinking I hadn&#8217;t got my username or password right. It wasn&#8217;t even connected to the school network!</p>
<p>So I moved to another computer and spent what was rest of the lesson which was now <em>20 minutes</em> waiting for the seriously slow computer to turn on, log me on and open photoshop. Wait no, it can&#8217;t do that. It doesn&#8217;t have any software on!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not like there were any signs to say the computers weren&#8217;t working. They are slower than a <u>snail</u> and have the </u>oldest software known to man</u> on there!<br />
I cannot see computers taking over the world in the future. As least not the ones at our school! Half the staff can&#8217;t even work them! Ok not half the staff, but still! I had to tell one of the <strong>IT technicians</strong> how to fix one of the computers the other day!</p>
<p>Phew! <strong>Rant over.</strong> I just basically sat in the computer room for the whole lesson doing nothing!<br />
As you can see I have the new layout which I have been working on! I&#8217;m not sure how I feel about it. <em>What do you think?</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, I&#8217;m Beth and this is my personal website.<br />
I&#8217;ve had Echo Park for a while but I got lost in all my coursework and couldn&#8217;t keep up with the up-keep, but it&#8217;s the new year &#8211; new start!<br />
Thank you to <a href="http://gvd-paperplanes.com/" target="_blank">Gillian at GVD-Paperplanes</a> for the free layout. As soon as I can I am going to put up the one I&#8217;ve been working on! YAY!</p>
<p>All the snow where I live has turned to ice so walking to school even <strong>with walking boots</strong> on is <u>lethal</u>! Today, I must of slipped over about a thousand times! When I do I spread my arms out and flap them to get my balance but it never works and I end up on my bum once again. It must be hilarious to watch, a bit like <em>a penguin trying to fly!</em><br />
My friend, Sarah-Jane, and me got yelled at for wearing our walking boots to school! I would of thought they would give us an exception in this kind of weather! Plus we are always good *angel face* so we wouldn&#8217;t do it if we didn&#8217;t have a reason. Ok, I guess hers are bright blue and mine are darkish brown but what I don&#8217;t get is that other people getting away with wearing UGGs that are light brown and grey? Surely walking boots are much better? Sometimes I just do not get teachers.</p>
<p>I want to work on making tutorials for the moment. I&#8217;m just editing all my old tutorials for now and then I&#8217;ll start to make some new ones. If you would like to request any tutorials please put them in a comment.</p>
