End of 2011

So it’s the end of the year, and I have to say, where the hell did it go?!? Seriously, I can remember back to summer and that doesn’t seem like it was long ago at all, even though I’ve had a whole semester of university since then. Although I don’t remember the first half of the year all that well.

Quick review of the year!

January:  Year of Indulgence begins! Many 101 theme challenges. First 7/8 Character in LARP. Tonsilitis.

February: More 101 theme challenges. Hot Water Bottles. 24 Hour! I vow to never do the food order again. Early morning ramblings

March: 100th Post! Anime. Mafia popularity explodes. In the Hive. Graphics 1 Coursework. Seriously – Mumps? I had my jabs! Up to 47.

April: Still ill. From Wales to Strom in short succession. 2 updates on 101 Theme Challenge, I was slipping.

May: Exam time! Filled with revision, apathy and the drive to do everything but revise. World of warcraft.

June: More Strom! Scotland! Boredom results in Cleaning! Tuna BBQ!

July: 54. Stars. Tabletops. World of Warcraft. First level 8 character in LARP, all the 7/8’s in the world. Away from Norwich, back home. Strom again.

August: Moved into a new house, lovely new house. Boyfriend in hospital. Birthday and Underwear!

September: Laziness to the extreme! Also Geology in Greece, stupid hot weather. Start of the new term, lectures, pub crawls and all the rest.

October: Illness, unproductive due to world of warcraft. Mondays are not their own fault. Unhealthy food is the best. Careers fair – eek! I’m actually growing up.

November: Anime, NaNoWriMo, writing, lots of coursework and projects, go-go-go-go!

December: Unplanned date, finished coursework, yipee! DnD on monday nights. Back home for christmas, roasts, presents and family all followed. Should have posted more this year. Will try for bi-weekly updates at the very least next year!

 

So here’s to a good year gone, a better one to come, and many happy returns all round!

Evening’s in

Yet another evening in. Mark’s doing okay, he came downstairs for a while and had some little bits of food, so improvements. I did get to go to LARP today, for the morning at least. There was a 1/2 in the morning, and although I had an idea for a new character, I didn’t have all the costume bits for it that I wanted, so I monstered instead. Also I had played last week and then buggered off in the evening to play requiem. (My coat finally turned up, only three days late and to the address I didn’t expect it at, but whatever, it’s a good coat.) So it only felt right to monster again, especially since I knew I was buggering off in the evening to come back and look after Mark.

I got a £20 gift voucher for my birthday for WHsmiths, so I’m probably going to go and spend that tomorrow. I feel like buying arty crafty things, like some of those scratchy foil things that make pretty pictures, or more drawing things. Because I feel like doing some more art things. Like today, I got inspired to draw pictures of all of my LARP characters. It should be fun. And I’m creating a few bits of costume and stuff.

Although I do have to get some work in at some point this week. So I shall have to block out a few hours each day for that. The problem with the data got solved, so I should be able to continue with my report.

Ooooh! Good news! The underwear that got ordered from my party has come through. So if you were at my party it shall get to you soon!
