~soft, sweet music makes me sleep, calling my mind away~

There hasn't really been much I can discuss on a public blog. I'm worried and I'm waiting for things to change for the worse because I'm beginning to realise that they might. The most frustrating part is that if it does, it's going to be my own fault anyway.

Sorry for being ambiguous. Have a hamster to make up for it.

Yesterday's band practice went really well, and Christina caught up much faster than I had anticipated. Kudos, and time to knuckle down and learn the stuff for next week, I think.

To be honest? I need to admit that my main reason for updating is that, inspired (or maybe reminded) by a conversation with Laura last night, I need to get my hair done. I can't afford it, but nonetheless I've booked an appointment for tomorrow afternoon. Should I change the hair or get the same thing again? Any thoughts? :)

To Do List

1. Go to bed earlier. Get more sleep (already failing because I'm writing this sentence at 12.26am).
2. Keep up with things rather than just letting them pile up because I can't be bothered doing even one of the tasks.
3. Eat more healthily. Rather than eating super-healthy food one day and a load of total crap the next.
4. Sit down and actually, you know, think about stuff. No time? make time!
5. Get off my ass and dance.

Well, today I slept in and woke up 15 minutes before I had to leave the house! Nightmare! Luckily I got ready super-quick this morning and caught the train. Yay me!

Uni was Uni, and doesn't need to be blogged about besides the fact that I got charged £7.50 for a DVD that was a day overdue. WHOOPS.

So tonight I went with Kirker to see Confessions of a Shopaholic, which was a thoroughly enjoyable watch! I didn't like it much at first, but I found myself getting into it! I definitely liked her friend's clothes more though! We haven't had much of a chance to hang out lately because we're always so busy, but it was great to just chat again! It was such good times!

~and humming children to sleep~

Yesterday I got to browsing youtube and stumbled upon a cartoon I used to know pretty much by heart when I was a kid. The Wag-tastic opera parody directed by Chuck Jones, What's Opera, Doc? Needless to say it brought back a lot of memories. I find it strange how I appreciate things so dramatically differently now compared to when I was a small person. But the fat pony? I will always appreciate.

When I was at work last night, I was serving a young-ish woman and her daughter who looked to be about six. I was in a fairly foul mood at this point, so I didn't actually pay much attention to them until the woman spoke to me and basically this conversation happened:
Lady: I was just thinking about the last time I saw you.
Me: Oh? *confused*
Lady: You were in that pantomime, weren't you?
Me: Oh! The Captain Righteous one! Yeah, I was!
Lady: Aw, it was good fun. My daughter was just wondering if you got married to Captain Righteous.
Me: (!!!) ... Well, we're thinking about it! ^_^
Lady: Aww that's nice! Well, thanks very much! *leaves*

How random!

~i am whirling, wearing my sun feet~

Today is a day off uni, and what have I done with it?

Grandad's going kind of downhill so mum booked a plane yesterday to fly out to Dundee this morning. So we dropped mum off at the airport and I had to go and pick up a few things in Abbeycentre. And then I drove home and got shouted at by my dad because I tried to change lanes at a particularly stupid time. Carrick roundabout really is hideous when it's busy!

Also, the flowers Dave gave me last week? I thought they would just always stay how they were when I got them but they've all opened out and look even more gorgeous than they did a week ago!

Tonight I'm working. Blah.

~i am dancing, shrouded by green trees~

I find sometimes I think so much about something that it becomes a huge black hole for my thoughts, always there and eating up all the other thoughts until it becomes a big obese overfed thought. The sort of thing that just stays in the back of your mind and becomes sort of white noise. Normally I write these things down in some way or another and it sort of lifts it a little. Not always a successful effort, but worth a try. Sometimes it feels like I'm balancing something heavy on my head that obscures the top of my vision or something, it doesn't really make much sense. I think what I need at the moment is clarity. I hope I haven't scared anyone off with my bizarre moment of WHAT THE HECK IS NICKY ON ABOUT THIS TIME.
