Work, work work!

A FAIRLY UNEVENTFUL weekend with just work, work, work! However only a week until Easter holiday now!

Made a surprise discovery yesterday evening after trying to contact Australia to arrange a trip I want to do out there! I battled with my landline and the extension for dialing a different country. I then decided to use the other option the tour operator gave me to contact them! I downloaded and installed Skype and dialed through with it. First time no answer, second time I was forwarded and somebody answered! I was already to use instant messenger however to my shock my computer had a microphone, which I had never known about and they could hear me and before I knew it I was having a conversation. On further investigation I found out my webcam which I have never really used has the microphone within. Anyway that was my first Skype Experience!

Was not impressed with Bens cooking technique last night, he microwaved a piece of delicious salmon and then splashed it with water after he cooked it to had some moisture! Not how I would cook salmon!

Time goes so quickly!

WELL JUST ATTEMPTED a pillow fight with Simon but I suppose unsurprisingly he won, I am putting it down to his size advantage!!

Anyway have a few busy days lined up with BJ social tonight then work first thing tomorrow followed by lecture in afternoon and then work Saturday and Monday. Thinking that I am over half way through University though is pretty scary though time goes so quickly. It seems like only the other day I started! ... Only a couple of weeks until Easter then just deadlines and pretty much done for another year and then will be in my third and final year! ... Then I will have to go and get a proper job in the real world!! On the exciting side this time in twelve weeks I will be out of the UK and down under in Australia for a month!

All sorted with where I am going to live next year now, going to stay where I am now. Nearly moved to College Court there was a pros and cons to both! Bigger room here, though is nicer at college court, but it’s up a big hill but is closer ... you get the picture! ... I will have all new flat mates next year, so hopefully I will be lucky again like this year and get a good set! .. We have had some really good times in the flat so far but hay there’s a good few weeks really left until the end of the year so let the good times roll.
