So we have moved into the lovely 17 Chesshyre Street and after a day of cleaning by me and Maddy (Rebecca was being inducted into her new uni and Claire was travelling towards the lovely Swansea) whilst we were waiting for the non existstant Mr Virgin Media Man who apparently wasn't suposed to turn up so we ended up installing it ourself and all ( Read more... )

 Yesterday I completed the 5k route of the Race for Life in Swansea!!! Woooo!! Go me!!! And we were wearing pjs!! And to top it off I got a shiny medal, free bottle of water, bag of freebies and a breakfast for this morning all thrown in ( Read more... )

The sad time has come for me come home from Swansea (not that home isn't fantastic as well - Fern's sheep and cake were amazing :p) for the summer and I shall miss it. Last week I packed (the worst job ever - tiring and stressful so we went to Big tescos and Borders!!) and took 90% of my stuff home leaving the rest in boxes on my bed awaiting my ( Read more... )

 
Yay!!!! Finally I'm 19!!!
I had a fantastic two birthdays (yes I am a greedy pig :p). My first birthday was my real one and I celebrated this with a weekend at home. I went with my family for a picnic in Bicton Park (near Exeter - and yes as we passed the sign for Exeter I did shout 'hi Nat; but I'm quite sure I wasn't heard but it's the thought ( Read more... )

Yes the Brownies tried to rob a bank this evening :s. We took the Brownies on a walk along the sea front to the mumbles and Joe's Ice Cream Parour.

Yup that's why we did it. That's why we subjected ourselves to over three hours of some of the worst music ever to be heard (and that was just the entry from the UK!!!).

Yes it's that time of year when cheese is officially let out of the closet for one night only and the eyes of Europe are fixed on one place - the Eurovision Song Contest (a load of ( Read more... )

 So I should be revising but I seem to have developed an unhealthy obsession with Grey's Anatomy (especially Alex :p). Somehow watching someone's corrotted (again sp?? (what is wrong with me tonight??) artery explode seems more excting than revising changes in medical knowledge in Early Modern Britian, Corruption and disease in Oedipus and the ( Read more... )

 Yay!!! Got my first exam over and done with this afternoon so am off to the pub later (which was organised over msn thus involving 8 conversations and me asking Michelle in Leicester if she wanted to come by mistake :P - Well Mike and Michelle are very similar names you see!!!) Was quiet a good exam - on English Language but for some reason when I ( Read more... )
