Film Challenge + Life

Today I had the most incredibly stressful day.
I was late.
I now need glasses.
I typed my PIN in wrong 3 times so my card is now locked.
The only help Apple could give me was a free phone number so I can talk to people who don't speak English for free.
My bank couldn't help me with my concern and referred me to a phone helpline.
The phone helpline told me my branch were supposed to know.
My branch told me that the letter I was sent and was worried about didn't actually concern me or my account, they just sent it as routine to everyone.
I walked 5 miles so fast because I was late.
With burning legs from yesterdays workout.
Arrived to meet my friend late and sweating buckets.

I did achieve a few things though.
I managed to buy my favourite Simple face wipes.
And have iced tea with my friend.
And watch the Matrix!

I'm slowly ticking those films off the IMDB top 250 list, I've seen embarrassingly few.

Expectations of the week

I'm going home tomorrow for a few days of solid rehearsals and I'm anticipating:

- Sunny, southern weather
- Lots of singing and dancing
- COMPANY!
- Being poked fun at for my northern accent
- A hugely messy flat
- Evening plans which don't revolve around my computer

Ahh, the life!

A slice of heaven

I know essentially this is just a cup of sugar but I'm arguing that the lemon juice makes it a tad healthier. And if you don't like the tartness of lemons, go for oranges and claim health benefits that way.

Take a bit of both of these ^^


  

Do this ^^

Alternative Recipe

Do a bit of stirring and voila! Extra points for being a cheap and tacky student if you make it in a mug.

Go on. Give in. Trust me it makes a rainy day so much easier to bear.
 Having cinema and dinner plans with the girls also doesn't hurt

Drunk cooking

The brownies are in the oven, well almost. For the past few hours, the flatmate and myself who are exam free of exams (!!!) have been urged and encouraged to drink, drink, drink and bake!
And *grudgingly* we have obliged.

Really, any excuse to down ones sorrows is taken up vociferously by my flat. Hence the people who dont live here (but we love regardless) are round and drinking despite protestations that they have exams in 2 days! Shame on you Nicole!

But when the brownies are cooked and *ready* I'm glad to say I shall not be the one trying them. Only the sober ones shall be visiting the hospital tonight!!!

There were three in the bed

And the little one said 'roll over'

So, for the second out of the last few nights, I will not be sleeping in my own bed but in room 42, or possibly 32... Who knows? It's fun all the same!

42 passed out on 35s bed, 35 passed out on my bed, 32 is on 42s bed so I think that leaves me with 32s bed. Let's see how it goes- anyone up for a late night walk?
