Hello goodbye

This is most likely gonna be the shortest of all BEDA entries. Soo tired & grumpy & sick of people, just wanna be left alone. The End.

Dorset III

Well now, I actually have time to write a proper entry (longer than the previous ones anyway). More »

Late BEDA blog

and short one too cuz I’m knackered (also the hotel wifi doesn’t work in my bed, only nearer the door. Meh).

Had a generally lovely day (incl. great weather). Totally in love with Bath, can now officially say my biggest regret in life is not going to that assessment day. Blah. Must stop obsessing over it.

Saw other lovely things as well tho and had lovely dinner with lovely Kate, KateMum & KateDerek.

Now lovely sleepytime… zzzz.

Damn this is nice!

Oh hai me again. Nepalese was delicious. It was also very full & we had to “book” & come back half an hour later & then still had to wait so I assume it’s generally considered a very good restaurant. Should you ever be in Bath, try Yak Yeti Yak just off North Parade.

Bath is also, as I’ve already said, very cute and pretty. Am kinda sad I didn’t do my MA here (I’d applied & then um… just didn’t turn up for their exam/welcome day. *ashamed* I’d probably already decided I wanted Warwick. Stupid men)

Now time for sleepies! 🙂 Holidays niiice.

Dorset trip I

Actually I lie, we’ve not even been to Dorset yet, we’ve been to Hampshire & Wiltshire and now we’re in Somerset. Bath to be precise. It’s cute. Not seen much so far cuz tho we only just got here. We’ve seen Salisbury & Longleat Safari Park tho. And lots of rain and traffic lol. And now I must get ready so we can go have dinner at a cute little Nepalese restaurant called Yak Yeti Yak. 😡 (I may come to regret this, not sure if I’ll like Nepalese cuisine)

Goodness, is that the time?

I have to hurry to get my daily blog in before midnight. I also have to sleep soon. As most of you may know I’ve got my mum visiting at the moment, it’s been fun and we’ve only argued once so far. Been shopping (oh man my feet hurt), then lazed about, looked at pics, lazed about some more, went food-shopping, had dinner, the end.

It’s funny to have her here tho, it’s occurred to me I’ve never properly been her host before (with her staying at my flat & all. last time she came I offloaded her to a B&B cuz I was paranoid she’d find my flat messy & dirty if she stayed too long). I wouldn’t go as far as to say it’s some sort of growing up ritual (at 31, eek), but it’s kinda nice to realise I’ve actually figured some stuff out by myself and now I can welcome her in my little flat and show her how things work, make the bed for her etc (I was a very spoilt child – still am I know – and always pretty much had stuff done for me lol). I sort of cleaned up around the kitchen after she’d gone to bed and that felt very weird. :)) 😐

She also likes the flat, and Brighton. It’s cute how she gets excited about British stuff (she’s been before… been a while tho). She wasn’t impressed that there’s no hot water at the taps in my flat tho. :)) I’d sorta intended to tell her / ask if she wanted me to put the boiler on, but then I forgot. She took it well tho and washed her face & teeth in the shower. 😀

Yeah anyway, I really need to sleep. We’re off to Dorset tomorrow, I am plannning to keep up the daily blogging but you can expect the updates to be pretty short, typing is sort of a pain on the iPhone. Hopefully I’ll make up for it by bringing back lots of pretty pics – which won’t have any people in them I know so Mon will find them boring. But there will be monkeys! :]

Today I had 0.3 of my “5 a day”

Some lettuce and tomato on my bacon burger. 😀 Actually no, I had some salad over lunch too and an apple at some point. Yay me. More »

Distraction bad. Blogging good.

Okay so I’ve decided to start by blogging tonight and do the tidying later, cuz otherwise it’ll just end up as another “ack it’s late I’m tired, goodnight” post. This way it’s obviously going to turn into a long warbling procrastionation entry. 😀 More »

Tonight’s the night

… where I don’t have much to write about. Well mainly I’m knackered. I’ve done most of the mum-preparation flat-cleaning tho which is very nice. Only the kitchen left to do, and vacuuming the bedroom. Well, and hauling out bags full of rubbish (including the previous tenant’s curtains, which I kept for over a year to put on my pretty yellow carpet when I had builders round. :)) ).

Tomorrow we’re going to play volleyball after work, which should be fun, I enjoyed it last time we did it. Yeah and I think that shall be all for today, sorry. Must have dinner now and then bed. Nice, comfortable bed. 🙂

Clarissa home alone & road trip plans

This was the first week-end I’ve had at home for quite a while (after three consecutive week-ends in Southampton, Athens and Paris, respectively). It has been very nice, the main benefit being long lie ins on my expensive mattress. 🙂 More »
