And then I died...


1 caipirinha...

2 caipirinha...

3 caipirinha...

FOUR!

5 caipirinha and a bit of wine later, I'm on the floor...

Oh dear! Hehe. Was a fab day, very much enjoyed it...but Sunday was not so good! :P I think I may be avoiding huge amounts of alcohol for the next week to let my body recover! :)

101 Dreams - Dream 10

Dream 10 - Paint and draw more. I love painting and drawing, I love being creative...I just don't find the time...it's not like my day is taken up with stuff, but it's like finding time to read, time to immerse yourself in another world, but hopefully I will start to find more time for drawing and painting, maybe in the upcoming month?

The many faces of exams

I'll do anything not to have to work! I have a plan, should be easy...just need to start doing it. But in the mean time, photos of me pulling exam related faces. The above is how I imagine a lot of other people feel...sometimes you just walk into a room and can feel the stress coming from people, I prefer the relaxed approach...possibly why I don't do as well as others...but anyhoo...below are some of my facial expressions towards exams. Every now and then I do pull a "URGH!" face, and then I go distract myself with more TV or photo taking. Hehe...
...should go do something now!

Basketball in the Sunshine

Last Wednesday our little basketball crew met up to play some basketball (I obviously didn't partake because...well I'm lazy like that). So instead, I took photos of the basketballiness! All in the lovely sunshine that only occasionally delights us up in the north, but has been taking a liking to our little corner of the world in the recent weeks if not months! :) It was a lovely afternoon out, just after I had handed in my dreaded dissertation - and now I share the photos as I "study" (I believe I have mentioned before, but I hate studying, I can't do it, re-reading stuff I've been told, relearning everything...seems so boring, I haven't been away from it long enough to have regained interest in it, and starting with maths is decreasing my interest in revision even more! I have forgotten calculus altogether, and developed a new fear of all things mathematical that makes me insides tighten up...ick! So I am trying to find ANYTHING other than revision to keep me occupied...).
15 days, and then my uni work is all over...I can then begin to moan and complain about how hard working life (or finding work) is... :P

Mr. Men

Google are celebrating what would have been Roger Hargreaves 76th Birthday with some really awesome Mr. Men logos. I thought they were so cool (and really don't want to start studying yet) that I felt the need to share! They make me feel like a child again...so lovely, colourful and cute! :)
Who was your favourite Mr. Men? I particularly liked Mr. Tickles and Mr. Messy. I love quite a few of the Little Misses too! :)

Dissertation Update

It's taking over my life... Good thing I'm only working on it for a short period of time :P

4500 words! :O :D

Means at least another 3000 for it to be within the guideline word limit...with a whole chapter to go (the longest chapter I think), more to add to the intro and a conclusion...I think I can make it! hehe. :)

Time for a little break I think.

Getting there...

I have 3000words I feel are set, and have just written another 750...so I'm like exactly half way done to the minimum word limit! And I still have to finish this chapter, write the chapter on social constructions and add so much more to my intro that I feel like I should maybe turn it into and intro and another chapter...we'll see. But Eeeeee. I am getting there! :D

Austria

We moved there when I was 6. Which puzzles me hugely because I can't believe I was such a small child! I look younger than 6 in the above picture...yes? no? I think so. I loved Austria. I was very sad to leave, but looking back, I think I love Geneva more. I do have a lot of fond memories of Austria. :)

Back to work: 2000/8000 words for dis, 1000/4000 for maths project. A quarter of the way there!
