So, the last couple of weeks have been reeeeeeally busy. And so are the next couple of weeks. I'm becoming one of those people who have to make appointments in order to catch up with old friends. And nobody likes that person. So if you're reading this and I've been a rubbish friend lately, I'm sorry...
Starting with the most recent and working backwards, here's a brief update on what's been going on in my life right now:
> I've finished writing my reports. That's the main task that's been occupying me over the last two or three weeks. But now they're done and dusted. Whoop!
> Actually, that previous statement is a lie. The main task that's been occupying me is my shiny brand new Wii and Wii Fit. It was supposed to be a Christmas present from my parents but it arrived through the post after a particularly bad day at work and I figured I would treat myself. Totally worth it... It's amazing! (Apart from when it tells me that I've been snacking too much this afternoon, or that I'm a couch potato because I can't hold 'the plank' position for more than 10 seconds.)
> I went to Cambridge on Saturday with Matt, Christina and Glyn. It was full of people saying things like 'I like to think that if music hadn't existed, then I could have invented it,' and 'To me, this clock represents time being eaten away by our mundane daily routine.' Or something like that. I was just mesmorised by the little blue lights on the clock.
> We recorded our very own Christmas single at the last Straight Ahead rehearsal of 2008. It was a lot of fun. We did a cover of 'Feed the World'- Here's us shouting 'Happy Christmas!' at the end (apparently you had to shout to the ceiling instead of into the microphones...):
> Hadleigh band visited Belfast the weekend before last, and Heather and I tagged along as talented 2nd Horn players. It was great! Although I'm fairly certain that over the entire weekend, I managed to eat more than I could lift. Here's us on the plane:
There are only 6 and a half school days left til we break up from school! I am VERY excited about the buildup to Christmas and catching up with lots of old friends- roll on the end of term!
