Results!

Wooo!! I got a 2:1!

I'm so pleased and relieved! I had decided that I wasn't going to get it and that I had thrown away my chances last semester.....you can see why I was a bit worried - my average was 59.6% so I really did only just get it!!

Been decorating my room at home this week (Thanks to Graham for helping!). After rearranging it feels much airier and spacious than before which is excellent. The walls are now white and the woodwork is one of 2 shades of turquoise. I likes it a lot. Still got to unpack all of my stuff into it though!

I turned 22 last tuesday. It didn't really feel like that much of a birthday this year. I guess that's because I didn't really do anything big to celebrate. For the past few years I've always had a party or been out on a major pissup...this year I just went for a meal with my family and Gray. Maybe this is a sign that I'm getting old!

PS. Congrats to Bob on his first and to everyone else who got their degrees on friday!

They can't work me out because I'm not mathematics

Aloha! Not blogged for ages (again!)

I bought a magazine today which says it has 4 covers to 'collect'. I don't quite understand this concept.....why would anyway buy 4 copies of the same magazine just to 'collect' the different covers? Strange.

I have spent the day sorting out stuff in my room and adding to the ever expanding pile of paper, magazines and notes to be recycled (it's almost a metre high now!) I also did ALL the washing up in the kitchen and cleaned the draining board.....this was no mean feat (What does that actually mean? What is a feat? Is that even how you spell it?!) some of the washing up has been there since christmas and the draining board.....well it was so rank that there were actually things living under it - YUK!

This cleaning and sorting spree is all because I am leaving Southampton on Monday. It's a bit weird and sad really but at the same time I feel quite ready to move on and start the next chapter! I'm turning 22 on Tuesday, it's a shame that I won't be in Southampton to celebrate (Seeing as the weekend I wanted celebrate it in London it seems like none of my friends will be there!) but luckily there is some cool stuff planned for the weekend - should be meeting Graham's best friend on sat and Jon is having a party and then on Sunday a BBQ at Sarah's. Have to say goodbye to everyone! :-s

P.S. In web etiquette do we write :-S or :-s? Because I can never decided which one looks best!
