yadda yadda



Being home for the easter holidays has been good on the free food/lodgings/washing etc front [plus seeing my family, im not completely devoid of love you know ;) ]....but ive had nothing too do. I really could have done a lot more revision but ive done some, which is better than nothing.On the up side i was caught by suprise in the supermarket today, trailing round bored behind my mother. The bic runga album was just sitting there staring at me. I got addicted to her when i heard "sway" on the american pie soundtrack,and have always loved that track. I have never come across anything by them in the shops until now, and it was weird how it stood out on the shelf like it did. I thought Bic Runga was the bandname, but its actually just the female solo artists name, cool huh. I was quite suprised at how good the album is, i expected it to have one or two good songs on (including sway), and lots of 'filler' tracks, you know, the silly wishy washy crap they fill up the space with. But its pretty good.At least the weather was better today. Sat in the garden for all of 5 minutes before i got bored of the cat running around me in circles, falling on the floor and wiggling his belly at me...so i came inside and got my gore fix by watching kill bill with my sister and her b/f. I have to admit, i hated the film the first time round. This time i found it growing on me a little more.The first time i watched it was in silence, and just didnt provoke anything in me at all, apart from bordom and 'thats so unrealistic'. But sitting in a chilled atmosphere and talking about the scenes with sis & martin was quite cool. I enjoyed it a hell of a lot more, and it matched the mood.Why do i think that if i keep printing out my lecture notes [but not reading them] that the information will somehow magically pop into my brain ready for my exams? bah!Oh and im officially going to cyprus with family, only thing is its on the wrong side. All the good historical stuff is on the west, and were on the east. Its quite far to travel to visit the other side....hmm. Apparently the east side of the island is the 'man-made' area...im sure it will still be good. If there is nothing to see, i will learn to scuba-dive, its supposed to be a diving hotspot. I want flippers!
