Home, work, sleep and harass Ginger puss

Back home with my baby :) GG is definitely very pleased to see me. I'm already doing a few shifts at work and spend my days off sleeping and harassing small animals such as ginger puss.
I'm finding it a bit difficult on my days off to do nothing, there is normally something on the to do list..

Christmas in flat one

 

So it's getting very close to the end now, I can all most see it. My essays done, presentation on Friday and everything else is pretty much finished. On Sunday Alice and I managed to cook a Large joint of chicken without giving anyone food poisoning. That is my first life skill learnt, cooked Christmas dinner.

We all had a little secret Santa which was fairly amusing and then played the hardest game on earth, No idea what it was called...

By the my brains I was able to work out who got my secret Santa, Jack being male thought I'd love...A stapler and a packet of cheesy Dorito's. You may think wow that's a great present. However, when you consider the fact that 1. I HATE Doritos's and 2. I already own a stapler it actually turned out to be pretty funny!

Never the less it was an amazing evening and lovely to eat dinner as a flat :) To finish the evening off we played a bit of ping pong which was pretty damn funny to be fair.

The Final Push

Christmas please, please, please hurry up.
I'm Starting to get bored of all this work and really can't wait to go home for Christmas and just relax without having a bit of work breathing down the back of my neck. I think I've finished my essay I went to see the DOS Friday night and they were pretty helpful so I had a bit of work to change a bit, however now I'm 50 words down on my word count. I feel like I'm chasing it round in circles really since it's either too many words over or too many word under. It's hard work :(  Another little hurdle we have to overcome is this stupid presentation on nutrition during pregnancy, it would be okay if the group I was working with were a bit more friendly towards outsiders of their little group. We have to present on the 16th which is the day we break up for Xmas so all that will be on my mind is going home for Xmas. The reason they put it on the last day of term is because everyone would skive off and go home if we didn't have our presentation.
You may have noticed that this little paragraph is becoming increasingly grumpy, that is because I needs a holiday and because I'm suffering from a mind blowing hang over from Friday...
It wasn't until this morning that I found out how much I had actually had to drink as opposed to how much i thought i had drank. It turns out it was A LOT!
So today is the flat Xmas party we've decorated the kitchen and managed to buy a full Christmas dinner for 7 people from Iceland for....£26.50. I was truly amazed. Apparently that's why students go to Iceland....

Forget Midwifery Im Going To Be An Atrist

So I've developed a new pass time, it's called paint by numbers. The fact that I can concentrate on anything for longer than 5 minutes is a miracle. Anyway I'm pretty good at it, even though I'm not sure that a lot can go wrong really when all i have to do is paint over numbers, Never the less simple things please simple minds.
Last night the flat ordered a take away and it took 1hr20 minutes to come! I was practically wasting away and when it did arrive it wasn't even that nice, however I ate it so quickly I gave myself indigestion.  me and Alice definitely should have had Chinese. Anyway tonight is Friday night which means...

Im such a smart girl ;)

Feeling pretty confident about my research on nutrition during pregnancy, even made a little flip book to go with it. If midwifery fails I could become a publisher in flip books :)

Exciting day of Uni today, we were let loose with needles. For some reason I enjoyed myself a bit, we were mostly taught about different types of injection: Intrademally,Intramuscular,intravenously,Subcutaneously and Intravenously. Everything was lovely until we came to the IM injection with the biggest needle I've ever seen! I pray that I am not Rhesus Negative because I will refuse Anti-D IM injections! Of course it now means that when I go back into practise I will be made to give injections which I will of course avoid like the plague...

Just as exciting for the flat was the gossiping that had taken hold in flat 1. To cut a long story very short... Immy who was dating jack broke up, Immy was/is still very upset. Anyway, Jack brings new girl back to flat, she stays the night and does the walk of shame the next morning. Immy is very unhappy and get fairly upset so last night because of my inquizitive nature I stayed up and listened to most of what was going on...All very exciting really!

Going carol singing tonight with Alice and a few other flat mates, I was persuaded by the idea of free mince pies and mould wine ;)

Dear Essay...I hate you!

So I've decided that today is going to be the day I try to complete my essay, It's not going well I must say... So far I've eaten a whole 500g Fruit and Nut bar and procrastinated by attempting to tidy my already tidy room, then written this blog so, not much essay work going on really. Never the less,  I have cut my essay down to 1,889 words which is now too many words under =_= If I pass this essay it will be nothing short of a miracle.
On the brighter side of life, my illness is starting to wear off and I'm feeling a little less snotty. I was even able to sleep all night on my back last night without choking on my own snot.

  The flat got into the Christmassy spirits yesterday by putting up our pathetically small little Christmas tree... Thing aren't all that bad really.

Pictures that make me laugh...

Power cut

http://ju5tafewth0ughts.blog.com/power-cut-chaos-on-campus/ Had to have a bit of a giggle at the people who were left in complete darkness in the library and swimming pool when all power disappeared from the whole campus! LOL here is another student moaning about, I however found it quite exciting and rather entertaining :)

Simple Things

I appreciate the simpler things in life and could/have watched the wax float up and down for hours... Nothing could be more amusing than that.

Happy December

Starting to miss home a bit now, although work is nearly finished I still can't get over this essay. Although, I have been proactive and went to dean of students to sort myself out.

Now placement is over it's nice to be on normal hours studying at uni and back with the girls again, they're such good support and I've found myself a new mummy who looks after me. It is a well known fact that as soon as you relax after working and being exhausted you get ill and i have! Full blown cold, funny stomach and just general unhealthiness. It's going round and i think the whole university has it, where ever you go there is another person sneezing, coughing or hiding their face in a tissue. Home isn't going to want me home this year if I'm ill so I have approx. 15 days to get rid or I'm staying here. Can't wait to see my GG, I can see him now counting down the days til my arrival home, where I can harass him for a full 2 weeks before returning back.

To all my family members, as far as I'm concerned an orange is the most expensive gift I can give to anyone this year, I've become a right little tight bugger since Ive been here and it means that gifts will be sparse this year.

The flats getting all Christmasy  though, we are going to put up Christmas decorations this weekend and Alice already has a little stocking hanging from her door, it's cute and a bit exciting :)

Anyway I'm going to cough, sneeze and feel sorry for myself in bed, Night :) xxx
