well the dissertation is still going on! its going well, but slowly, im a bit more positive than midweek when i had to re-write almost all of it! not good! itll definately be done in time, well ive got no choice!! ive decided that ive definately lived with guys too long and i think im even getting worse than them on the tidying up stakes! (see below! :-S ) MY ROOM DURING DISSERTATION AND ASSESSMENT MADNESS! cant wait to get all my work handed in cos i can finally tidy up! well i say that, but it probably wont change, itll still stay a pig sty!!! hehe. went out to fnd last night at the union. it was quite good fun, only trouble was that there were 3 different groups of mates out and everytime i tried to move from one group to the next id loose everyone! Typical! JOE, ME AND BECCA ALL LOOKING NORMAL UNTILL........... YOU SEE MY BOOTS! HEHE. these are my infamous boots that i got at the clotheshow! i think theyre fantastic but i dont think anyone else likes them,

all done and dusted (well almost!)

got to hand in all my work for my assessment today. i think (hope) its all done! mum came over last night to help me mount stuff, she's a *!! im going in a bit later to mount it on the boards. i managed to get my weave off yesterday after two early mornings, i was in the studio at 7:45am! *yawn* thats a first! (and last! well, untill final project!) i feel a big relief now thats out of the way, all ive gotta do now is my dissertation! noooo! :-S xx

(proabably in july when i graduate?!!?) ive got my assessment at the end of the week and my weaves not even off the loom yet and i dont really have any final designs so i really need to get on with it and stop writing this blog!

im stressed! its crap being a finalist! argh! got too much to do so writing this blog is a nice break! *NEWS FLASH!!* I STILL HAD TIME TO DYE MY HAIR THOUGH!!! ITS NOW A NICE REDDY/BURGUNDY! YAYA! Had quite a nice weekend. Rfa, sam and i went to Bridgnorth in Shropshire to visit anna and to go and see the infamous Andy G (anna's boyf's) gig. he was well good, did lots of cool songs and his set was two 45min sessions. i was very impressed! so 'big up mr g!' hehe MR ANDY G! (not posed at all!!!) RFA, KTP AND SAM we were staying at a pub/hotel called bassa villa and was haunted apparently! we werent told that till next morning though, although the night before in the pub a few people did give us odd looks when we told them where we were staying!!! we didnt see anything though and believe me i was awake most of the night stressing or doing my dissertation on the landing so if there was anything to see i would have seen it! any ghosts probably would have been m

random ramblings

well im back in lufbra again now, feels like ive never been home! its very quiet in our house, riksters asleep (has been since 5pm!) and rfa isnt back till feb cos hes a slacker and only has 1 exam in jan! chuh! might be going out tonight but not sure, might just have an early night in and chillax! mmm sounds nice! ive not blogged for a while cos ive been trying to get my dissertation done. last week mum and i went to london to the V&A gallery for me to do some more research. it was very strict, they even had an invigilator who looked over everyone to check we were all behaving! i requested one book and because it was a special one i had to use it right infront of the invigilator and was only allowed to make notes in my notebook in pencil incase i defaced the book at the same time! it was too quiet as well, i really hate libraries, they are just too quiet, i find that distracts me more than a bit of noise! well anyway ive got 7000 words for my dissertation and its finish

well ive just about thawed out! mum dad, uncle colin, aunty sue, ruby and i all went on the canals for 4 days over new year. we hired a 56ft barge from stoke golding and pottered around on the canals. it was quite nice to get away from everything, all i had was a radio, a tv when we'd moored and my mobile that was on silent (couldnt have turned it off! fipping heck, im not going that far back to basics!! :-P)! i did take my dissertation with me though! sad i know! we set off in heavy rain, not very pleasent but we (well i say 'we,' dad and colin did all the steering while the women stayed indoors doing the cooking and playing cards etc!) battled on against the elements! THE GANG! (sue, colin, dad, me, mum, ruby) when we moored for the night we noticed our heating wasnt working too well so we tried to bleed the radiators but that did nothing, we ended up having to call out the guys from the boating place to help us! our boiler was dodgy but we put hot water bottles
