What a wonderful whirlwind week i've had! It's been just fantabulous! Tis good to be home, and even though i need to get my own space after uni, home is great. It's the only place anyone is completely at ease don't you think? Here's a lovely example for you: You can have a big noisy poo and you won't worry that someone might hear like you probably do anywhere else, hehe! I always worry that when i spend loads of time with Alistair my family might feel left out but they've been incredibly understanding of my need to see my wonderful boyfriend. My sister, Nikki, and I have argued a bit, but i think we will do that and it's never anything major. She's coming back to Aber with me on monday for a few days which'll be nice [fingers crossed we won't fall out!]
Have managed to catch up with friends this week too - on monday loads of us from school: Lottie, Hannah, Prit, Andy, Matt, Kalps, Me, Alistair and Marc, all played basketball for ages and it was the most perfect day for it. We didn't keep score and it was just exhilerating to be running around!! And great to be socialising outside of the pub which is where most of them ususally reside [tonight in fact is gonna be a big one for them!] Also went for lunch with Hannah S, Lottie, Han, Marc and Alistair which was cool, delicous food we had. Thursday eve was lovely too - i went out for drinks with the Body Shop girlies - it's great that we all keep in touch, it's been two yars since we all left that job we we still make the effort:) Me and Amanda drank two bottles of wine and a bit more between us and we had such a funny time, was great to laugh and be silly! Just cool that we could all get together for an evening.
I've spent a lot of time at Alistair's - the last three nights in a row actually but it just doesnt make sense to go home when it's bedtime when we can just curl up together and go to sleep. I do feel a bit bad that i'm always at his house and always there for breakfast but his parents are so lovely about it and even said that they'd have me there all the days if they could:) So all is lovely, Alistair had a day off from all his work yesterday and we just played like kids all day - we bought catchball, those round things you wear on your hands that the ball sticks too and played for ages in his garden!! Was great to be in the sunshine.
Everything is in perspective i think. Work's going ok for uni - it's all nearly done now and i know i'd have to fail all three modules to get less than a 2:1 which is not going to happen because i work hard. But i will not let myself get stressed out about what work i have left[remind me of this on the day of the oral - eeeeek, i have to speak for 20 minutes!!] and i will be the strongest, dedicated girlfriend to help Alsitair though what he has left. Cutting his dissertation from 20,000 words to 12,000 is his next big task but totally managable and i won't be around next week to pester him! But i'll be there on the telebone.
Alistair can't make it to the may ball now which is HUGE shame but not the end of the world. I will see him the weekend after and for all the days after we've finished uni, YIPPEE!! So do i go to the ball still? Maybe if i can get someone to buy the other one? Hmmmmmmmmm.
Here's an essay for you all, byebye xxxxxxxxxx
