Grey Skies, High Spirits

You don't hear from me in a month and then BAM two posts in one day - lucky you!

What these two posts do suggest though is that I have far too much free time... or... more likely, that I am avoiding doing real work. Knocked the nail on the head with that one my friends.

So, it's now nearing 3pm on a bleak Tuesday afternoon, and I am trawling the world of fashion blogs (just discovered "Runway Hippie" which I LOVE right now <3 and also writing up a little list of the 100 Things I Want To Do Before I Die. Sounds depressing but it's seriously motivating.

Realised a lot of things are ultimately things to do when you're alone, which also sounds pretty bleak, but I guess it's unrealistic to suppose I will always be surrounded by loved ones, so maybe some of my 100 Things, such as going on a Spiritual Retreat, can be done when I have my nervous breakdown/early mid-life crisis and need something different and RomCom film-ey to get myself through it. Ahh if life was a film then things would be so much funnier.

Anywho, I am now sort of sitting and waiting for my Academic Advisor Clare Connors to get back to me regarding my Dissertation and give me things to amend, whilst I sit here jotting down things that my Dad has left to the last second to mention and thinks I should include in my project. Everything he's put is awesome, but I am already nearing 900 words over my wordcount, and after everything I have added to my second draft aatempt today I think I will be looking at a 10,000 word essay as opposed to the specified 8000. Whoopsie.

Meanwhile also stressing about whether or not I will get to see my boyfriend this weekend (George and Mum have turned around to me yesterday and said that they might be driving my home Saturday now instead of Sunday, in which case I won't get to pop in on my lovely boyf in Warwick) and am also stressing generally about returning to Norwich (which I am somewhat dreading). Moreover, there is the continued concern over PGCE and Clare Connors not replying and me flunking the year and my entire degree etc etc [INSERT FURTHER MELODRAMA]

In the meantime, I will return to my work and try and ignore the blogs and Facebook (will try and delete it if I cna this year, it only brings me down and makes me compare my life to other peoples) and get this dissertation cracked!

Muchos besos xoxox
