I saw a pretty pink purse I would really like to have on a website but it was quite expensive. When I went into a shop today to look at it they had the blue version ... but it was reduced to half-price! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I bought it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Glad you were able to indulge yourself at a reduced cost.

Running a fabby session on the CT ABRSM course in Southend-on-Sea!

Lovely group of people - SO responsive, interested and enthusiastic (and nearly all male!). I believe this is the first time an entire music service's instrumental staff have all done the CT course en masse.

And one lady came up to me at the end with shining eyes, declaring that she had had 'a Damascus moment' during the session...

Today I went to the library and wrote 1750 words of my 2500 word essay. It only took a few hours, since I was writing by hand and didn't have facebook to check. As I was out of the house, too, it didn't feel as hellish as usual - I was writing with a friend who was doing hers at the same time, so it was quite fun. I've just typed it up now, and been able to edit as I went too, so hopefully even the rewrites won't take so long.
I hope the second part goes as well tomorrow!
Also, Glee Club made me happy. We're learning a new song called the Tequila Samba, which is awesome.

Finding out that there are TWO Wagamamas in Manchester - of course, they're both too far away to make frequent visits to, and neither do deliveries, but they're there nonetheless! Chicken chilli men, here I come! (that's the name of the dish... not men made out of chicken and chilli...)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) at the chicken and chilli (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) there'sa Wagamama restaurant just in the town centre, but I can honestly say I've never been in before...there's always hugeee queues outside the door regardless of the time of day, so it must be pretty nice in there too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I've finished the first draft of my essay! It's over the word count, but they won't notice an extra 200 words, if I just lie about it...

Depends how well written it is. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) If the essay flows naturally and is engaging and enjoyable to read then the extra words won't notice. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) If the essay is more tedious to read then they will. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I'm not sure anything about Early Modern English is enjoyable to read. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif) My tutor chose to specialise in it, though, so I guess in that, we differ. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

I don't know how well-written it is. Hopefully it's not too bad

You live in Manchester? There's one at Deansgate and one at the Printworks... And yes, the food is amazing! It's relatively healthy too, but the tastes are still incredible!

No no, sorry, I'm being highly uncommunicative tonight, I meant to put the town centre where I live (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) sorry, it's just been one of those days (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I shall have to visit it sometime (not the one in Manchester! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif))
And yes, the chicken and chilli joke was really quite funny (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Aaaah okay (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Well, I recommend it! (especially the chicken chilli men... though that's all I've had, so I don't have much to compare it to...)
