Some sort of window to your right, as he goes left and you stay right...

Quick little blog today. Its been a gorgeous day and I am looking forward to having a little walk in a bit to take pasta bake stuff to Karenstickalaren's. I am going to a meeting about Varsity photography, hopefully I shall get to cover the hockey! I can't decide how fussed I am about covering anything else really, maybe some lacrosse would be good but thats probably about it.

We're going out for Julie's birthday tonight which I am actually really looking forward to, hope its fun. We shall be going to Space for possibley the last time which is actually quite sad. I am still yet to accept that I will actually be leaving in June although I will still be able to come back and visit Karen. I'm getting nervous about my applications now as I sent a couple of masters ones off yesterday.

Anyway now I need to find some smart shoes and trousers!

And I'll take the first step of a million more...

-25 Facts-
  1. I am a Christian and lead a Sunday school.
  2. I have swam with tuna fish in the Red Sea.
  3. I listen to a lot of music but would never describe myself as someone into it.
  4. At various points in my life I have wanted to be: a farmer (tractors are cool), a sports journalist (sports are cool) and a linguist (linguists are cool). Currently I want to be (sort of am) a scientist (scientists are cool).
  5. I have a strange obsession with being able to procrastinate and seem to be able to exhaust the internet of all its crappy flash games frequently.
  6. I firmly believe that ice hockey is the best sport in the world.
  7. I am rather accident prone and clumsy but have never broken a bone.
  8. I feel happiest when I am outside (unless it is raining) taking photos and going on adventures with Karen.
  9. I enjoy going on holiday to places with famous sporting arenas and pointing out that I have been to them once I return.
  10. I hate spending money yet have very expensive tastes in, mostly pointless, gadgets.
  11. I want to live abroad but haven't decided where, although Canada or the States would be a safe bet.
  12. I have learned to like dogs and am rather excited about owning one in the future.
  13. I got DNA and RNA mixed up in my Cambridge interview, pretty good show for a biologist really. =P
  14. I have watched a shocklingly small number of films in my life.
  15. I would like to make money from my photography but wouldn't want it to be a full blown career.
  16. I own a ridiculous number of rucksacks (6 plus an extra camera bag).
  17. I really like dark chocolate.
  18. I think its much more fun to drive at night than in the day time.
  19. I read far too many blogs and webcomics.
  20. I like to cook and clean up afterwards!
  21. For some reason I own three woolly hats.
  22. I want to learn to ski and snowboard despite my abysmal sense of balance.
  23. The most beautiful place I have ever been was the Sinai desert, seeing all the stars at night was fantastic. I also rode a camel, this was less fantastic.
  24. I genuinely do want a pet minipig and would call it Jeremy.
  25. I would still call Durham home but feel a very strong attachment to Sheffield and all the friends I have made in the past two and half years.



    I want to cheat and add a 26th thing.

  26. I genuinely feel that I have met the love of my life and want to make the perfect proposal to spend the rest of my life with her. No matter what I am doing as long as I am doing it with her its the best thing in the world, it could be watching a sunset (we don't do sunrise =P) or watching the news, it doesn't matter.

The company you keep is what makes life worth living.

What makes the one to shake you down...

A good day indeed, Church was fab I ate loads of biscuits and we played some fun games.

Revision is going pretty OK and I had a fun afternoon with Karen.

We talked more about next summer and upgrading our photo gear and moving on with stuff. I'm really happy.

The pens lost game 1 which isn't so hot but hopefully they will bounce back tomorrow and even the series up 1-1.
