I am deeply ashamed

The reason for the deep ashamed-ness is that I have only just realised that I have no updated this since January. For this I am sorry, though I am doubtful that anyone actually reads this, so it's no great loss.

In my last post, I mentioned going to see Jack's Mannequin with Brooke and we did just that. We went to Manchester, got practically accused of being lesbians and going to a Lesbian Convention, ate Subway and saw the beautiful Andrew McMahon and the rest of JM. Afterwards, we met the band and had photos then returned to our "Lesbian boudoir" before train-ing it back to our respective unis :) Good times were had all round, I suppose except for Charlotte who had to endure my alarm for 3 hours as I'd forgotten to turn it off for the night ooops.

Before then, I also turned 19. Possibly the strangest birthday I've ever had, in that it didn't really feel like a birthday. Yet fun all the same.

We also had snow in the UK, was an exciting time for all, with half the country ground to a stand still we were able to play in the snow, build various snow constructions. Including the Muso Monday 3.30-5 TMP and Text team Snow Beast, whom we named Snozzeck after Wozzeck :) it was a beautiful time.

Apart from all this, little of note has occurred, apart from my bad health taking an exciting turn for the worse culminating in a short stay in an ambulance and a panic attack. However all is better now, and I seem to be having a good stretch of health for now. It had better last all through my exams this term, and after as I'd like to enjoy the summer without being hideously ill thank you very much!

Oooh, Stop the Boat!! I went to the land of the Americans and the Bahamians actually. Took the longest flights I have ever endured to get there, and back, but apart from not being able to sleep comfortably and general descending from altitude ear problems the trip was a great success :) for a first trip to the US of A, I have to say I wasn't most impressed as the hotels we stayed at were a little on the lame and not so aaaaaaaaawwweeesome side of the island. But Disney and all its happy cheese made up for it immensely :) I'm thinking for my next visit to the land of the Americans I would like to visit New York and or the West Coast including San Francisco and the like :)

I have just returned from Colchester after visiting Jo at uni for a few days and had a lovely time. May have slightly humiliated myself on Monday after drinking a little too much and generally talking too much, but a good time was had by all I do believe :)

I promise I won't leave it the best part of 3 months to write again in here, though I have to say there wasn't really enough blog worthy moments to fill too many pages!
