mum did her final exam for her open university law degree on wednesday, and i went down to bristol to celebrate. i even got some quite expensive bubbly. however when i got there, she was really depressed and convinced she'd failed. she didnt talk about anything but what had happened in the exam for the next few days, although i told her thinking about it wouldnt help anything.
i took her to the relaxation centre spa for a day of chilling out, sauna/turkishbath/hottubbing, and massage (for her birthday treat originally, but it turns out she needed it!)
then we went up to london and saw billy elliot the musical! it was amazing, the talent of the boys and the energy of the main boy's performance although he's done it a hundred times! the only problem was i could only see the bottom half of the stage because our seats were right at the back of the upper circle, so i missed some of the things that took place either up on a raised bit that was suposed to be billy's bedroom, or parts where billy was lifted up on the wire and did spinning things. mum loved it, dad and charlie didnt really get why us girls liked it so much. guess its a girl thing!
and now i'm back, and feeling much more stressed cos i've managed to get lots done FINALLY and get my internet connection back in my room (i was banned for a month for downloading stuff, tee hee)
so all should be better soon!
