I noticed this on esther's and catherine's blogs and thought i would give it a go. "O wise mp3 player please share your wisdom with me."

1. What do you think of me, mp3 player? to try for the sun by donovan (what?!! is that some sort of comment on my actions? am i reaching for the impossible? nah! you are wrong! but lets not fall out over it.)

2. Will I have a happy life? memory andrew lloyd webber (it will be memorable? well i suppose that's all we can ask. at least i will have something to tell the grandkids.)

Day one of pre-sessional course (or how i haven't a clue about linguistics)

I'm feeling excited all over again about my course even though i was told over and over again how the first term is like going through hell (yay!). There are 12 people on the course (makes it a lot easier to remember names but i am still having trouble) and they seem like a nice bunch and we had a paediatric observation, which was really interesting and i didn't shrivel up into a big nervous quivering wreck and, and, and...i also managed to miss my mouth with a cup of coffee and pour half it down my cream jumper right in front of all these people i had just met (smacks head with palm of hand). So good first impression; i think tomorrow i shall just go into the lecture wielding my maracca and just let them see what they are really in for.

by the way my darlings if any of you wouldn't mind having me stay with you 2 weeks over the easter or 4 weeks over the summer while i do placements please let me know or i shall ring you all up and pester you. i have to let the department know towns where i can get accomodation. :D otherwise i will have to pay extra to stay near to whereever they put me :(

The day after moving day...

I have survived moving into halls!! hurrah!! i am on the seventh floor and the room is actually a good size and there is no mould!! hurrah!! the majority of students in this hall are postgraduates and international students so my fears of being surrounded by partying freshers and not being able to get any sleep were unfounded (though to be fair us postgrads were probably making the most noise in the pub last night). Today i am trying to sort out the mess that is my home for the next year but as i have just succesfully connected my computer to the halls network i have taken a short break in unpacking. I must sort this room out i can't stand living out of boxes and i must get out at some point to go and find where the actual university is but i can no longer see the door. Don't worry dear friends i shall point myself in the direction in which i remember the door to be and fight my way through the boxes until freedom is mine. I go no wish me luck.

P.S. to my dearest lovliest friends out there please feel free to pay me a visit at any point in the future kiss kiss kiss.
