I can't believe I'm already on
my third blog! Truthfully, I was sceptical when the idea of me doing a blog was
first mentioned. I didn't think I would have anything to say, but now it’s hard
trying to stop myself from typing...
I do have to say a big thank you to one of the supervisors
for the contribution of “Rogue Bunny” on my previous instalment, because it was
totally appropriate (and extremely cute – I wish I had thought of it). The
Pirate Bunnies of Greenwich have now appointed Rogue Bunny as their leader and
as such, I am now avoiding Greenwich Park - I have enough sneezing to deal with
from my cold for the time being, thank you very much!
Soooooo. Priscilla. Was. Awe-some! Although I don’t imagine
it’s to the taste of everyone (it is rather crude in places). I had been
terrified it was going to be like the night that almost destroyed my love of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, but it
totally surpassed my expectations - I’m so glad I got to see it. Fingers
crossed it goes on tour so I can see it again, at least once. :) I was mouthing
along to pretty much all of the songs - and I’m not even a huge fan of disco,
but I do like shiny, shiny things and I do like to sing. As much as it
embarrasses me to admit - and hopefully I am not the only one who has ever done
this, but if so, I hang my head in shame - the songs have been stuck in my head
ever since. This has meant a few impromptu moments of me, when my flat mate has
been out, bursting into song. A
little too loudly. I think I should probably go and apologise to all of my
neighbours at this point... Or wait, then I can pretend it’s my flatmate,
should anyone come and ask. I have also been finding lots (and lots and lots)
of excuses to use my shiny, shiny Priscilla QOTD (Not QOTSA, Homme fans, but QOT
-D) mug... So much so, I have now rechristened it Priscilla, Queen of the Chai
Latte. “Chai Latte? What happened to the coffee?” I hear you say. My answer is
this - I have a lot more chai teabags left than I do ground coffee, so the
coffee is on a strict ration until payday. Then I’ll be back to the cafĂ© lattes
and Priscilla the Mug won’t even have to change her initials.
So, beyond my visits to
Cambridge Circus and the glitzy, glamorous world of the fictional drag-queen, I
have been focussing on the thing I’m really here to do. Sleep. Eat.
Earn money. Study(!). I’ve been working hard on a piece of coursework
that I’m glad has had some formative feedback of “Excellent”. This is good, as
up to now, I thought I might have wandered off the path and was worrying I
might get a “needs significant improvement”. Good inspiration to carry on and
actually get it finished. To me, feedback is vital, especially at this stage of
my degree, when every single mark counts!
*Project Update*
I have a new idea, which is all
about e-learning on the mobile web, using devices like iPhones, Nokia Lumia or
iPads. Need to get it approved by one of the supervisors - make sure it's web
techie enough for them!
So, not a very long update, but
I did promise. ;o)
Anyhew, time is getting on and
deadlines draw nearer. Including the one for my contextual report. The report that
in fact relies on me having picked a project topic… Oh dear. Until next time.
Stay shiny. (o:
