Yesterday was a good day, a very good one. After lectures Hayley and I headed into Winchester for our first visit of the new year. It was fun as usual and consisted of a delicious melted brie and bacon baguette, as well as the discovery of the primark opening date, and some interesting shopping. Hawkins bazaar is one of our favourite haunts, and we normally visit it when we trek into Winchester. For those of you who have seen my two of three desk posts (third of which is still pending), the fact that I bought, yet another, small nick knack for my desk will not surprise you.
This particular new addition is a small plastic wind-up yellow cat. Yes, the title becomes clear all of a sudden. To flip properly he needs to be on a completely flat surface. He lives on my desk obviously, so that may be an issue.
The other news is today's news I guess. Among a run-in with the (utterly useless) student loan company, I have also spent the day glass painting and writing poetry. It seems the break of normality over the summer has done my creative spirit a world of good, and perhaps my inspiration collecting has begun to get back to work. I attribute this partly to the time away from home and in Malta, and the linked subject of having an equal, fair, and working relationship. I am starting slow though, to avoid draining myself now may be crucial later, especially with my FYP this year.
As well as this I have also got a lot of reading to do, book after book of it in fact, with more on the side. Still, for my creative non-fiction for children I am required to read a "Horrible Histories" book, so it's not all bad. Some of the bits on the side look to be interesting too - a piece by Fraud for instance entitled "writers and daydreaming".
Anyway, that's about it for now. Have fun readers. :D
