I also need to add that Holly had her puppies yesterday! 7 of them...


the weekend

Friday night was a little odd...I was starting to get all nervous and have butterflies; it was in many ways quite a good feeling!Deciding to get an early night wasn't that great as I couldn't get to sleep for a while, but I woke up pretty early saturday.

Nick was back in the country. I was restless and fidgety. The monkey had reawoken I guess.
Breakfast was good, as the last time I was in that cafe I could barely keep anything down...And it was good to see G. Saturday was a day for seeing absent friends and new people; and also getting some reasonable grub; mmm food.

Sunday was a day of chilling, eating BBQ food and being (non-alcoholically) merry...it was also a day of pizza (yay) and filmage. Whereas yesterday was a day of lectures and rainy showers, along with sheer boredom and a few other things. For some reason I seem to be doing less and less, I should start getting a lil more pro-active.

Well today is early yet, so I'm not really sure what will happen. Guess I'll get back to you.

reverie

been a bit of a funny week this...and besides that it has almost whizzed passed, almost as if in some drug-induced day-dream.

monday back to lectures, which dint seem difficult at all, though had a cold and was not in the mood!tuesday more of the same (yeh, i know, such a rollercoaster ride)...but my mum had her interview so is now starting uni early next year - go her! :D

wednesday saw me in a pretty good mood and i managed to get out and do some exercise (much needed) though i am now still feeling it...this mood was pretty much brought to a halt from the news about one of my dogs... :'(

yesterday we found out one of the others is preggers...where life is lost, new life is created i guess...other than that yesterday was just a good old-fashioned day off to get some work done, and even sort out my room; it's very odd having floor space, i can tell ya...

And today, well, today has been a pretty good day so far...been blowing my horn and just chillin for the most part; woke up pretty happy, and have stayed thus all day, despite something silly making me upset earlier! i guess it's the little things that can turn us either way.but sometimes they are the best things. :D

anyway, best wishes to all...
and if there is anyone out there reading this, ya know, feel free to make a comment!

i know

I saw a little blonde girl the other day on one of the platforms in a tube station...she had her hands covering her ears as she walked along, and as soon as I saw her I knew exactly how she felt.

Yay!

Sorry...i seem to have been neglecting my blog a little lately.i will try and remedy this, but if not you'll just have to settle for a few half-hearted attempts every week or so.

Right, not really sure where to start, so i guess i'll just go back over each day that i've missed. will have to be in and out doing this as i really need to get some washing done!

Thursday night I managed to finish my essay at around 1am (then fri morn)...Dont think I got to sleep til quite late though, but at least it was done!yay...dint sleep much as was woken at 6am by crazy people in the years above; the manic start to our fantabulous RAG week.

Has been a good week despite the ragging itself...not the best of activities for someone such as myself, with all the people and the noise etc. One of those times where you just wanna curl up in a ball and rock gently! It was good though as I think I did quite well in spite of myself...at least raised over enough to go skydiving next month! :D

Dressing up as a cavewoman friday night was the least of my worries friday night, as I think i ended up limping home...yay me...saturday was a brilliant day, though whether or not more or less nakedness is in order is anyone's guess. for me and another small number it didnt really end, and we did not leave til the following morning (despite the big red bus leaving us many hours earlier). it was a brilliant feeling to be able to eat finally at 2pm sunday...steak is the best remedy! also got to see G that night; always a pleasure.

Monday im not really sure about to be honest. i know i went out to raise some cash, and i transformed into a bit of a wuss that evening...giving into my introverted side. ho hum.

tuesday, very uneventful, but again went out ragging (after some persuasion) and i think i slept that night pretty damn soundly. dont think there's much to say about wed or thurs either to be honest.though watching people get covered in egg, water, flour etc was fun. And besides, it's all for charity!

Friday, well, what can I say...15 pubs before 11pm; with a 7pm start...all good fun...though a little chilly to do so in a bikini. costumes were all amazing, and am looking forward to the same next year! I think this is where my immune system decided to give in to the cold i now have...ho hum. My feet are also sore as from the flip flops i was wearing...

waking up on saturday was a little odd to say the least; and there was at least one or two hours of memory loss :( (bad bad things); but i came off much better than some people, who were all a little fragile. one thing though which was worrying when i got up yesterday was the apparent loss of my wallet....oh no!but thankfully some kind blonde headed gentleman managed to find it for me - yay!

As today is sunday i am now coming to the end of my rantings...last night was a really great night...it's brilliant to see everyone dressed up (even though when i do i feel like a boy in a dress). It was the perfect way to round off a long long week of fundraising and craziness; food, wine, dancing...however heels really did not help the state of my feet in any way!it is such a relief to be in trainers again.

Not really done much today...lemips are all good though, helps with the cold! Also have been doing my washing, which i must go and dry very soon, did all my washing up and there's still plenty of the evening left.

I am also in a fantastic mood, and i really hope it will remain at least for a while :D

N is back soon, and i got another of his postcards yesterday; again made me smile. simple things as always.

one thing im not loving is burning my tongue on my dinner...not nice in the slightest :(

but i do want to end on a good note, so once again, YAY!

take care

thought i'd check in

Am feeling pretty good right now...though the week has been pretty uneventful.

have now finished ssm; woohoo! but still need to finish/submit my essay...not so woohoo...

for some reason i dont have any recollection of sunday - if i remember then i'll get back to you (probably wasn't that great anyway). monday i started back at uni, happy happy joy joy. hmmm

Went shopping again tuesday, this time not so fruitless - yay me! but that did involve parting with some of my much-valued money :(

Saw a few people tuesday night, and stole pizza even after having already eaten; for some reason i was still hungry. And talking about food, i had my groceries delivered yesterday so now my fridge is no longer empty :D i know, simple things.

hmm, such an exciting life i lead!

last few days

Right, well monday and tuesday i cant really remember that much, so im guessing i dint do a heck of a lot!ooh, actually, went to wings all-you-can-eat chinese monday and watched 'the rocky horror picture show', erm, then tuesday i think i rested.

wednesday i started a short 3-day introductory course, and discovered there was at least a couple of others there i knew. that night i went out for a curry (again), and went to see 'robots' at the cinema before going for a few drinks. was a decent evening with a coupla pals, though was pretty tired the next day, what with being all social and stuff.

the thursday night i finally saw 'ocean's 11' (on dvd) and also watched a little 'back to the future', which was pretty cool.movies following on from food (of course)...went to a japanese noodle place and stuffed myself silly.

the course was alright; mildly interesting and got to meet some peeps from different unis...friday night went out with new people and had pizza and drinks at theirs. was quite a chilled evening, and perhaps i will stay in touch with them.

today i knackered myself silly with a fruitless day of shopping...oh well, i think i might go again tuesday as i now have an idea of what i might get (thankfully)!

tonight i should really start getting on with a few things, but began a little late oweing to little motivation earlier (lack of rest and food, i reckon). but so far, not so bad...so i shall leave this post in order to carry on with said to-do...

love and bubbles
