a tale of few updates
I suppose I cannot evade the point - I really haven't been updating this much. Or at all. But don't fear - my updates will be back on top form before you know it!
But I digress. ~
I write to you now, having just bathed a balding, 10 year old dog with shampoo that smelled like the fondant filling in Strawberry Dream Quality Street. And my favourite beach towel.
I had a lovely evening at Sophie's on Friday, watching the fireworks, discussing with Neil in a west London accent about whether you can go north if you're at the North Pole (we decided you cannot) and singing campfire songs around the dinner table.
Perhaps more relevant, though, is the wonderful time I had a Mobear's last night, wherein we watched The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, were mentally scarred and - due to a lack of U rated films to watch - played on Wii Play until 2:30 in the morning, in particular greatly enjoying the one with the trains, and playing against the Mii that looked like Gamu.
I think my Chemistry assessed practical went well, if you define well as 'a substantial failure'. Seriously, it went that badly. Actually, that's a lie - the practical part I might have scrapped by on, but for the last question I was this close to getting the right answer but, of course, I had to do 18-18 = 0 rather than 18/18 = 1. A substantial lack of sense was to be had.
I bought this month's Issue of Vogue today, because Emma Watson is on the cover and is absolutely beautiful. She's a very inspiring young woman. :) Also, I want to get my mum some really nice jewellery for Christmas, and need ideas.
(Yes, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.)
In my community service this week, Alec and I supervised small children picking up leaves to make cards and bookmarks. And while the cute little year 7's stuck leaves onto pieces of paper, I made a bookmark where the leaves all overlapped and graduated from brown to yellow to orange. It was very arty, and I can't wait until next Thursday when it will be all laminated and ready to me to ... mark books with? :D
Monday A Week tomorrow, which is nice. Get to spend time with all the lovely people in my form in HEE. :)
