I always forget to update after there's been a mass of activity!
So, Nikki did indeed come to stay for a couple of days at the start of last week, which was frikkin'
amazing!!!It's been waaaaaaaaay too long - two years actually - since we last saw each other, but we never really worry about it, cos we always connect straight away!
So, yeah, brought her to the boys' and it was nice to have everyone together before Pineapple dashed off up to Yorkshire and Ollie dashed off slightly further afield to America. We played lots of Rock Band 2 - so addictive!!!!!
Took her to my placement too, introduced her to Nick, and have hopefully secured the possibilty of her getting some real media work. Yorkshire isn't so good for opportunities in that sorta thing...
All in all, it was great to have her come to visit, and I hope she'll be back down again soon!
(Maybe even permanently!!!!
*fingers crossed*)
So, um, yeah, now I've finished my placement. Wow!
But it's carrying on into a sorta actual work.
Chris has already been employed as a paid website developer by Pauline's brother-in-law, which is great, but led to a couple of problems with me and him.
Misunderstandings and unnecessary attitudes were hurtful, but we talked through them and stuff, so it's okies for the most part.
Anyway, now all I've got to do is my Dissertation and my report/display for my placement, sooooo, whoop~!
Can't believe how close I am to graduating. >_>
It's also been really nice getting to know some people even more than I already do, like Nikki, Helen, and in some respects the Hughes~!
But, well, that's always to be expected after a couple of bottles of
very nice wine!
Hehehe, seriously, though, I really appreciate how much my nearest 'n' dearest trust me and shizzle, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. ^______^
Got loads of house-y stuff underway now, which also makes me warm and fuzzy!
Me and Chris have got paint and DIY stuff to redo the bench outside and the gates, which is gonna look really nice and make summer more enjoyable - I've always wanted to make more use of the garden, really, so it'll be a good start!
Had a really summer-y day in town with Sarah and Chris today, which was really nice, too!
It's about damn time. Stupid England!
All the daffodils are out and it feels nicer to be outside. Think the late night walks are gonna start up again soon.
*Smile*Ummmmmm, yeah, that's the major stuff, mmmhmm!
Just ploddin' along~!
