Well...

...it's taken long enough, but I'm back. And before you ask, still without a topic of interest. So this will carry on the way it is. Its been a couple of weeks since the last time I had a lot to say, so surely something will spring to mind that could entertain atleast one individual out there.

We'll start with the obvious, Ashleigh is in Edinburgh, and has been for nearly a week, but he heads back tomorrow so maybe I'll be in a bit of a better mood after that :) We'll see each other on Friday, which means we'll have nearly spent two weeks apart, the longest separation since we've been together. But in the mean time I guess I've got plenty of work to get on with; photography, history, journalism, shorthand and radio playlists to organise. Maybe I should have tempted some of those before blogging, atleast then I could have argued I'm having a productive day (which I really could do with today, and maybe up until Friday).

Histories and Industries this evening to keep me on my toes... or to just fall asleep during (I won't be the first). Suppose it might be a case of constant coffee consumptions to keep me going today... it wasn't until now I realise how much coffee I do drink (addicted much?).

The mother returned from her jolly's and got a few shocks to come home to apparently, how lovely I'm sure. Glad I wasn't there to take the blame. Maybe some people just can't be trusted to look after themselves.

I've had a bit of a frustrated week recently, all I seem to do is stay awake in bed and constantly bang my head against the wall (not intentionally, but three times in the past two nights I have managed to bang my head on the wall next to the bed). And when I'm not in bed I seem to be constantly ranting about someone who has managed to irritate me in some way... note; you have a car, you've lived in Derby how long, since you were little... how can you manage to be late to absolutely everything!!!!! Sonmetimes my rants amuse even me.

My nana, bless her little cottons, is packing me up a bow full of food, toiletries, books and photos for me to have at university. Feels like I'm in a third world country the other side of the globe and she's sending aid...but atleast it's less money for me to spend on food and toiletries and more for trainfares to Leicester or home.

Well considering I have essays galore to be done for the beginning of next month I'm thinking I best get some of my research done today, which means going to campus early and enjoying the world of the university library... lets try not to upset the staff in there today after last weeks blunder. Back soon.

Its about time...

... that I actually wrote another blog. But still not a topic of interest to intrigue and inspire. Once more I'm sitting alone in my room counting down the hours until I can do something functional with myself, other than cook and clean (I swear that's all I do anymore). No on a more serious note I've had a lovely couple of days with my Ashleigh; he really has brightened up my week and made my room more homely with the goodies he brought me from home. Only thing is now he's gone I miss him and feel lonely again :(

I now know my way around the local area a little better, and have some places in mind I want to visit during one of my days of boredom perhaps; museums, art galleries, walk down the river etc... I'm looking forward to dragging poor Ash to all the lovely places I find :) but I'm even more looking forward to the next time I just get to be in his arms and get to feel warm (a giant fluffy dressing gown that smells like him just isn't as good as the real thing).

We found ourselves a lovely little spot where we can enjoy the sound of flowing water together on one of our little adventures over the past couple of days...



I'm still looking forward to starting my course properly on Monday, and am quite excited about sorting out my bag and stationary (I'm like a small child picking a pretty pencil case to go back to school with). I'm sure I can find myself plenty of things to stay busy with until then, even though I have just made a weeks worth of chicken stir fry (which tastes amazing if I do say so myself). I've also managed to inspire flat mates to attempt something a bit more exotic in the kitchen :) Nice to see everyone getting along.

I'm starting to think of a more topical subject for a less general blog, so maybe film or book reviews; may be a thought for consideration; but we'll see. And for now we'll call it a day and be on our way...

What Now?...

... blooming good question? There's not a great deal to tell the world when you've spent the majority of the day sitting around generally chatting, or in a world of your own waiting for a certain someone to get his ass online. But he did get his ass online, along with a nice little surprise; getting my family on webcam so I could see them for the first time since they left me on Saturday. Now that really did brighten up my day!

I'm currently just sitting around waiting to get the ball rolling properly at university, lets get on with the lectures and so on so I can hurry up and get home to the people waiting for me. I might be moaning I want to go home now, but I've spent so bloody long moaning I wanted a break from it all, what a fool! Missing it now.

No, I have met some nice people here, and I'm not going to continuously rant and rave that I want to go home, because I'm sure once I've settled in properly I'll feel more comfortable (or more so when I have something to bloody do that isn't sit around and wait for a night out). And soon it will be more homely; once I get some more of my stuff brought up from home... (yes I already have two car loads here, but maybe, just maybe that isn't enough). It also means I can see Ashleigh before he goes back to university on Sunday, seeing as being the lovely person he is he's bringing me cuddly toys, books and photos to cheer me up. And it's going to be a nice change to cook something different that isn't stir fry or beansprouts, seeing as these are what I am currently living on (could be worse).

I am looking forward to starting this Journalism business, and even though its a bit sad, I'm exciting about getting my reading lists next week... I'm allowed to be sad ok :) I'm also rather excited about properly decorating my room, if only to cope with the boredom at the moment.

I'm starting to think I may also need to write a more topical blog, seeing as the world isn't going to be interested in the day-to-day outings of a miserable student, with a sarcastic sense of humour and a fascination for brackets (sometimes I just can't help it). So maybe once I've got into the swing of things here I will attempt to start a weekly and more topical blog, which will maybe interest someone out there. But for tonight this may be enough of a rant, as I have the excitement of meeting my lecturers for the year tomorrow... So off I go

A Fresh Start...

... and that's what this is. I've recently opened a new chapter in my life; met Prince Charming and fell in love (starting to sound like a fairytale already). But no, on a serious note, I have found the guy for me, and I owe a lot to Mr Ashliegh Clarke. He is my muse; he really has brought all ambition and motivation back into my life; so is therefore my reason for re-starting my blog, writing poetry again and progressing to university to name but a few. I want him to know how much he means to me, and how much I really do appreciate what he does for me.

So here we go... from today the blogging begins...
a) to help me progress through university
b) to remember every special moment, when photos just aren't enough
c) to keep a certain person updated in a more unconventional way :)
and d) possibly to entertain a few people along the way

I'm going to attempt to log in daily and add an entry that will entertain at least some, while keeping myself occupied while alone in my flat, waiting for the weekends to hurry up and get here so I can see my prince. So wish me luck...
