Random Ramblings

Well this is just a quick post to let you all know what is happening in my life at the min. I've obviously by now have told you all about Adam. The guy I met last week. Well no new developments on that front. He texted me on Monday and I havent heard anything since. Hmm I dunno if I should text him myself. You know I might seem too egar as I know this is only a summer thing.

Work has been going fine cant really say much on that front you know patient confidentiality and all that. Been working in theatre which is a nice change. Back being in charge of the ECG department which is hard work keeping all the junior members of staff in line.

I cant wait until the end of the month. One so I can get paid I am totally broke at the min. It's so bad that my mum is paying for us to go to the cinema tonight (We're going to see Mamma Mia). I'll have seen that 3 times then :) Once in the West End once in Belfast and then on the big screen. The other 2 reasons I'm looking forward to August is that my best friend and my brother are coming home. My best friend has been living in Stoke-on-trent for the past 2 years. Dont ever go to Stoke if you are in England. That place is the most depressing and boring place I have ever been to. The only good thing to come out of Stoke is Robbie Williams and thats saying something. The other bonus will be that I'll have somewhat of a social life then. All I seem to do at the min is work and then come home to surf on the internet. I'm planning a night out for when she comes home a bunch of us who all went to school together will meet up. We haven't seen each other in ages as one of my friends is pregnant and so doesn't really go out all that much.

Well thats it for now. Promise I'll try and update more

What a brilliant film. Though I have to say I was disappointed at the lack of Harry Ginny forshadowing. The battle at the MOM was amazing and Umbridge was scary. I was raging they didn't have the Give her Hell from us Peeves or It screws the other way. In my opinion the funniest two lines in the book. Ah well you cant win them all

A Songfic

I used to listen to this song and it just reminded me of Harry and Ginny. I hope you like it.

Summary: This is a songfic based on the traditional celtic song by the same name. Its my take on Ginny’s feelings on Harry leaving to find the horcruxes. Very short H/G one-shot This is my first fic please be kind Ta Sile

 

 

 

 

 

 

Black is the colour.

Disclaimer : These characters are not mine the song is not even mine.

Ginny Weasley stood on the steps of Hogwarts watching the three figures disappearing over the horizon. As the tears flowed down her face she thought of her true love and the dangerous journey he was about to take.

Black is the colour of my true loves hair.

His lips are like a roses fair.

She thought of Harry his kindness and gentleness. His willingness to give up everything for the safety of the wizarding world.

He has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands.

And I love the ground whereon he stands.

She thought of their farewell. That she told him that she loved him and that she would wait no matter how long it took.

I love my love and well he knows.

I love the ground whereon he goes.

She wished that harry would find the Horcruxes soon so he could return to her. Her heart was breaking that she could not go.

I wish the day would soon come.

When he and I can be as one.

She ran to the lake, their spot, under the tree and she began to cry. He said he would write but as they didn’t want Voldemort to know what they were doing they would not be often. She wanted to write to him tell him how she felt how much she wanted to be with him.

I go to the Clyde and I mourn and weep

For satisfied I never sleep

I write him letters just a few short lines

And suffer death ten thousand times.

She thought of his black hair and how she would play with it as they sat below this tree. He would tell her his worries and dreams for the future. She thought of his lips how soft and gentle they felt when he kissed her. How she could see into his very soul when she looked in his eyes. She knew at that moment how much she loved him and she would be there waiting until he returned.

Black is the colour of my true loves hair.

His lips are like a roses fair.

He has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands.

And I love the ground whereon he stands.

Hello failte beinvenue wilkommen welcome to the wonderful world of me. I'm 26 look about 12 but my mum assures me its a good thing. Not so wonderful if ur tryin to get into the pub. Working as a Cardiac Clinical Physiologist in the RVH (dont ask!) having a boring oul life best mate has abandoned me for another year and is working in Robbie Williams old school in stoke. Nowt much else interesting apart from a slight Harry Potter obsession as you can see from my pic.
