I take up my pen (as it were) once again at the exhortations of a fellow-student who misses reading my blog. I feel so loved :)

As it's a little while since I last wrote, I can't remember where I left off.. so apologies if there are huge gaps/numerous repeats in events as I narrate them.

Jenny came to stay over the weekend - which was UBER groovy to the max. Even though it rained, and I had to go rowing at Wallingford. But hey ho, you can't have everything and all that jazz, it was still pretty damn awesome. I very nearly bought a quite ridiculously priced (but mega funky) hat. It had earphone attachments. It cost £25. I was so tempted. But I couldn't *quite* justify it to myself so I didn't, which is probably for the best. But if anyone feels like buying it for me, well, I wouldn't say no, ok? ;)

Monday was a stressful day as I tried desperately to write the essay due in for Tuesday that I had thus far neglected. In the end, I left it til Tuesday morning to sort out. A risky strategy, you might think; and yet actually, by the time it came for me to read my essay out in the tute at 5, it was much better than I had left it on Monday. So there, all you people who think essays cannot be written last minute! (of which, I have to admit, I am usually one!)

Of course, now that's out of the way, it's time to celebrate just a little bit, because I don't have an essay in for 5th week! YESSSS! And I have decided to be a a little bit crazy and take my essay off in 6th week. So now I have 2 weeks sans essay! How awesome is that? Very awesome, that's how.

I haven't been slacking, mind. I stayed up to watch some of the American presidential elections; I've been rowing and erging and all sorts, I've still had Greek and Latin to do (yippee..) and I've been to G and Ds - twice! So you see, I've been very busy. I'm also trying to direct a play - come and see it! Thursday 20th November, some time in the early afternoon. It's going to be good, guys - and you better believe it!

Right. That's all for now as lunch calls - but I promise to write again soon. Honest!
