Cookies! (& christmas things!)

This is my current facebook photo. This was also last years photo. It still makes me laugh even now!!!

The Cookies...

When I went to Oxford we had a wonderfully twee pre christmas weekend, where we made mulled cider, and had mince pies, baked reindeer cookies and watched the Christmas Carol in bed, and went to the christmas show at earls court and went around all the department stores and looked at the lights on Oxford street. And I've remade the cookies as my contribution for my shared leaving lunch tomorrow. 

Hmmmm lots of time to post?

I do indeed have lots more time to peruse the internet for things of interest, and time to vent on my blog.
Firts things first.

Our Hotel. I think? haha.

These are images of the place I am going on Holiday! I can't bloody wait!!
It's going to be brilliant! It looks so pretty!!!
I am really really looking forward to it - I really feel like I need a break!
Sun, sea, sand, a few good books, great company, nothing to think about, and lot's and lot's of fun.

The harbour

The end of the peninsula.

Yes, I'm procrastinating because I'm sick of writing about functionalism, about a pretend person, and of attempting to learn the pyramidal and extrapyramidal tracts. Although I must admit I found the most amazing revision tool on your tube; how to remember the cranial nerves.




Whilst nosing on other blogs I came across this image:

I can't imagine anything better!!
Lot's of yummy, yummy cakes, A mint green Smeg fridge, and a model who isn't all skin and bones, and she cooks!!

I'm all into baking now I have my magazine thing with the silicone bakeware. Yay!

Voilà! The Hoopoe bird!

Finally, whilst being vaguely aware the news was on, I heard a man exclaim "who poo poo - have you heard the sound of poo poo in your garden?" Both mum and I were a bit like "Errr what on earth..." until I googled it.

Only 3 weeks left. Crazy times!

Today I achieved a fair amount. It was sunny out, so I sat at my desk and did work (yay!). I've worked on my case study a bit more, written about 1 of my theories for my social sciences essay - The appraisal theory by Lazarus and Folkman. Printed out all my slides for the week. And I did my A&P notes for last week.
I am going to stay with Kim & Michael this weekend, which I can't wait for! It's such a beautiful house, and so comfortable and relaxing. It'll be nice to chill out for the weekend, get a couple of hours work done (When my brilliant Aunt does some of her master's work!) and just spend the weekend with two members of my family that I don't always get to see that often! I can't wait!!
The weekend after (April 1st Eeek!) Ben should be coming down, and can take home a suitcase of my stuff that I no longer will need to try and minimise the amount to take back with me when I finish at Easter.

I really can't believe how quickly this year has gone, it's crazy!!! But I don't regret coming here, despite the work load!! I can imagine my 2nd and 3rd year will feel even quicker!! But I can almost see the end, the light at the end of the tunnel, whatever you want to call it I can see me almost there now. And I can't wait.

I'm glad I've managed to stay so focused and organised this year (so far!) as this was something I was concerned I'd lose track of.
I think I'm going to need more folders for next year! And I wanna see if I can get one of those little book bag/trolley things, I've seen a few people with them, they look a bit like brief cases/laptop bags, but have a long pulley handle.
I've even done my student finance re-application, and started my nhs bursary re-application for next year!

I really have a craving for Blueberry and Apple fruit tea... It's my new favourite thing. I have to say I have learn to love fruit tea. It's become my treat to myself, instead of something nice like chocolate and crisps...which I never eat anymore. In fact my diet is almost purely pasta haha. And fruit when I can afford it. I even bought Chicken for the first time since I got here the other week.

I'm looking forward to getting home because I want to bake. And cook a nice dinner. Which will be a treat, I love cooking, especially baking. But I just can't do that here.

Now to chill, get into my PJs and watch CSI:NY. Ahh what luxury...I am definitely destined to enjoy middle age :P
