So here I am in the library yet again, this time it seems so much more pleasant (could be the total lack of students), I have been listening to Mendelssohn’s String Symphonies Vol.1 Nos. 1-6 for the duration of dissertation writing and I must say I think I am truly in awe of it. I mean I find it lovely to listen to I suppose, I am not really sure why I am saying this, but I think it might be because I feel something about the music itself, plus of course it was my dad who introduced me to it.
I know there are those among you who wonder why I find it so hard to work at home, I think this is largely because I find it harder to concentrate, and I like the physical move from place of leisure to place or work, I can imagine tele-working will be hard for me unless I have to walk to a office at the end of my garden. I need something separate.
So what else, this weekend was a bit slow, I think mainly because I was recovering still from Thursday, on Friday I went to Mandy and Stevens as I said I think. On Saturday I went to Leeds which was good, I enjoyed seeing cousins and my aunt and uncle (I don’t really think of them as aunt and uncle more Emma and Mark…). It was a good time filled with cross words, playing and general stuff. I was shattered when I got back so just collapsed into bed.
On Sunday I did a little work, failed yet again to go to Quaker meeting (maybe next week), went shopping, did some other random stuff and chilled out till the evening when I went to see Mandy and Steven played MTG, and took lamb round so that I could have a roast with them, mmmm yum, yum roast lamb (twas very good).
On Monday I did a little work and chilled out, looked at some job information, and considered some options. Yesterday I went to Nantwich and saw Dominic (
phamster) and Lili which was fun (I even bought some wine: for my dinner to celebrate end of dissertation probably in May). It was lovely seeing Dominic and Lili they are a loving and very, very hugging couple which is almost sickening sweet, but kind of the way anyone might wish a relationship to be.
Today, well as I said I find myself in the library, but with that come good news, what with my dissertation tutor having got back to me in record time (less than a week). He basically gives good news with a few pointers, so hopefully not to much more to do.
