Big nann bread (sod atkins)

Flashback (3)


This is taken in one of the fab Sheffield parks. I dragged myself and my very hungover friends out the day after my birthday "for a walk" (turning into my mother moment). And I just think Sheffield is so pretty! No, I do! Spring and late autumn are the berst times to see the city, there's so many trees all over the place that you can either have lots of pretty blossom or lovely rusty dry leaves to kick about when you run through... heck, even when you walk to uni.

You can hear me coming during the autumn, because i shuffle all the way to uni and around campus through the biggest piles of leaves I can find.

Yes! it really leans! Dunno why it's come up with two pics, that's scary.

This is taken from one of my many holidays this year. I'm a lucky lucky lucky cow who goes off on holidays whenever i get the chance! Went to Pisa as part of a cruise with the whole family, the cruise was a bit cringeworthy and not really my type of thing (one does NOT like to be told what to do) but it was fab to be with the family en masse, even if i did get a bit worn out running around the ship playing scary child eating monsters with my icklist cousins.

Other holidays: Dublin with two uni friends in January after my finals, the month i spent in Sheffield unemployed after i finished my degree was stressfull because i was looking for a job BUt my rose tinted lenses have come out and all I remember are those amazing lazy days and feeling so relaxed and chilled out (humm), my third holiday was the family one, and before i started my MA, I went backpacking around Croatia. All fab for different reasons!

Yes, I burn very easily. Like my straw hat?

Ahhhh. This was taken on the day I had finished my history dissertation, which was very nicely timed with the day of the final year history ball.

God, I was SO drunk. Dunno how because I was too poor to buy any drinks; I think that me and Hannah pinched allt he wine from the first year tables.

Spent half the night in the girls toilets randomly screaching with the history girls and the other half of the night surrounded by men (this is no joke, all the other pics from the night might as well be labelled "me and my men")

Sadly, i've actually forgtton the names of quite a few of them. Christ, I only graduated in July! Senality indeed!

sorry. I'm still crap.

A not so sexy santa.... freaking heck, leave off me, I had just ran 5K in 28 frigging minutes. So Take That! Neeer.

So here's a random thought for the day. Christmas cake gives you terrible flatuance.

Meanwhile, i have been mucking round with my pictures while i have access to mummy and daddy's fancy computer equipment. It's been so strange, i've had a years worth of flashbacks - i took pics last NYE, history ball, graduation, one of my holidays, my 22nd birthday and this christmas with the digital. Next year i am going to ween myself off the 35mm and go all digital.

I may have to buy some fancy computer equipment of my own.
