Two in a row?

Wow you guys suck.

The party was brilliant, thanks for asking.
We drank lots, stuff happened - you know.

The next day me, Pete, Sags, Alex, Oli and Georgie went to Elie.
Spent the next few days on the beach, walking, paddling, drinking. Played lots on the golf course at night. Went to pubs and did nice things.

Then back to Edinburgh.
Started lectures again. All seem fine.
Have Wednesdays off which is nice, and not in till 1:30pm on Monday's and Thursday. So a pretty damn nice schedule.

Saw my friend's band yesterday. They were wonderful as always. (SOMA, look them up.)

Got a new duvet cover. It has ponies on it.
Bought Solomon a new pot. (He's my weeping fig tree.)

So yeah. All in all pretty uninteresting.
Although, we have a new flat mate - John.
He replaced Oli.
But Oli's always here anyway. He's sat next to me on the sofa right now. We're in the process of dehydrating some raspberries for a project he's doing.
Earlier we distilled some rose water.

Early blog, due to imminent massive party times.

My flat's having a big party tonight - Dickie and Sags's joint birthday bonanza.
So I shall blog now as I am not blogging this evening.

SO. Missed last blog, was in Amsterdam.
Was awesome. 22hour coach journey was less so.
Did Amsterdam things.

Saturday went to GHQ and CCs, was wonderful. Very drunk.

Monday had a cheese and wine night then hit the Hive.

Tuesday saw BEIRUT. In Glasgow.
Loved it.

Had a hair cut.
It's been good.

I have neglected the blog these past few weeks and I am truly sorry about that.

It is a bit late now though as I have to be in a clinic at 9 tomorrow morning so forgive for missing another day.

I'll try my best to come back tomorrow and write much more about what I have been doing with myself lately. No promises though.

Early blog

I can't sleep :( I went to piri piri with my sister and her husband earlier and had brandy coffee and now I cannot get to sleep at all. I'm getting up in just over two hours because I have a market in Stroud for my mum. This makes me sad, UK worried I'm going to crash at lunchtime and get really grumpy.

I'm giving blood on Monday, I'm quite scared and I think I will cry but I know it is worth it. Hopefully I won't pass out haha, I am going to join the bone marrow register too.

Had an int,erview today, not sure how it went. Was quite rushed beforehand because they forgot to rearrange the times and I got a call on my lunch break because they had me booked in at the same time as someone else, so I had to run up town and gather my stuff quickly. It's working with the tenants, getting them more involved and giving them more opportunities to get qualifications and stuff. I think it sounds interesting. But I think the interview wasn't good, I was so nervous! I find out on Monday....

I miss you all, sorry for not being sociable I'm just busy with work and get tired from bootcamp and stuff. I have next Friday off so maybe do stuff then if anyone is around? My cousin is coming to stay for two nights the Monday after next, so that will be lovely.

That is all I have to say, here is a picture. I hope I haven't posted it before, but it makes me giggle.
