Well the past two days have been just perfect.
Yesterday morning I finished off my Christmas dinner shopping and went through to visit some relatives in typical familial tradition. Another time honoured tradition occurred upon my return when my best friend and I visited our local bar and went to a midnight church service in a somewhat inebriated state (I recall attempting ‘opera’ at...

Helped out at my mum's school today.
They had a carol service in the morning and Christmas parties after lunch. I belted out those carols, helped out with the party games, judged the dancing competition and joined in with the Cha Cha Slide.
I absolutely love my mum’s work - she is amazing at her job and I really admire the way she is with the kids. The kids are great too, funny wee characters with stories to tell.

So tonight
I went to see Friendly Fires with one of my best friends. Although I don’t listen to them as much as I used to, they do know how to make you dance and that’s all I need right now - some feel good tunes with a great beat always make me smile.

You really can’t trust them sometimes. I’ve tried my very hardest to be more trusting while I’ve been getting better because shutting myself off was part of the reason I got ill.

I just can’t let this...

I feel a little sad about the state of this coursework and how it is basically consuming me.
Once it is done I am going to eat loads of fabulous food and probably get another piercing.
And buy a dress.
And maybe dye my hair.

Travels
I’d like some ideas of things to do on my year out.
My plan is to see more of America, Canada and Europe. I’m thinking of inter-railing the Europe part (and possibly au-pairing or finding bar work or something in between) but I’m currently pretty much clueless for the other part.
Give me places to go, things to do and people to see please. I love culture (in most senses of the...
