Stuff and Fluff

Hello there,
Well I've actually been doing a lot of things since I last wrote a blog. Since it's been such a long time since I wrote I've forgotten most of what I have done but that's life and I'm sure you're all glad the blog won't be of the epic sort.

I've been researching and writing all my essays and yet I've only completed one. It's an arduous battle against the wonders of the internet entertaining me and trying to write these essays. I took to locking myself in the library but after a while I decided I had a "feeling" about the library so now I can't study there. Yes, it's all in my head but I'm pretty pleased I don't have to sit in a dark room, surrounded by forgotten books, written by dead, boring people and listening to people who refuse to use to tissue and snort and exhale through their noses. The essays have suffered with my absence from the library but I'm lying to myself and I'll telling me I'm making progress!

The WG(the inhabitants of the flat I live in) now have started having BBQs every Wednesday. We usually have a theme to it. Last week, we dressed up rockabilly style and played the hits of Elvis, The Baseballs and all that sorta jazz...or should I say Rockabilly. I make a different dessert for each BBQ and I'm baking quite a bit over here. The boys (and girls) think it is because I'm generous and I want to be nice. In actual fact, I bake so much because I can't buy a box for half a dozen eggs. So to prevent them from going off before I use them I bake a cake. I'm teaching Kaelyn how to cook too. We've covered righteous mac and cheese and burgers and chips. She's a keen learner but prefers washing up more than cooking which is a bit difficult when the spoon you were using disappears while cooking as she's cleaning it. We're learning slowly.

I jumped up to Berlin for the weekend on the 18th of June to see Clair. It was so cool to be back in Berlin and with Clair. We mainly slept, ate and watched Disney movies. It was the perfect weekend. I headbutted a huge man in a club at least twice my height (I exaggerate a little) by accident but he took it pretty well as I'm still alive to tell the story! But yes, Berlin was awesome.

That's pretty much all my news. The eggs go off tomorrow so I'm off to bake a cake!
