Ohh, it's been ages since I wrote here, loads of stuff to update. First here's my pics from Barcelona where I went for my birthday. It was the first holiday I've had with Florent...aww ;-)

Gail's Birthday

At last I have taken the pictures off my phone from Gail's birthday meal a couple of weeks ago. I had a lovely time, but I got so drunk! The amazing thing was that I had to get up early the next day, but by that time I felt fine and even managed to do some of my Spanish homework at 7.30am in the morning while waiting for the train!

St John's

Every day this week I have been working at St John's College. Tonight is the last night...thank God! I keep telling myself I shouldn't do more thna 2 shifts in a row, but I just can't say no lol! Anyway, it's all gonna be nice spending money for my Birthday in Barcelona :)

Exam!

Ohh, today I have my final Spanish exam. It's the written part, I've already done the listening and the oral, which I think were the worst, so at least they are out of the way. I'm not so worried about this exam, I was quite nervous yesterday about the oral, and I would have been even more nervous if I had known that it would be in front of the rest of the class. Anyway, in the end it went ok and I think I may have passed that one. The listening one is another matter, I'm completely sure that I failed that one lol!

This exam today is gonna last an hour, but then that's it, the end of the course. I'm sort of happy and sad at the same time. It's been nice going there every day, the other people on the course are really nice and Soraya, our teacher, is lovely, so I think I'll miss them. But it has been hard work, 2 hours every day, having to juggle that with work etc, has been a bit tiring.

Kerry's Wedding

On Friday it was Kerry's wedding. It was wonderful, the weather was ok in the end, and I was lovely and drunk...perfect ;-) They always say it's never a good idea to get too drunk with work mates, but I don't think I did anything too outrageous. Anyways, here are some of the pictures.

Yikes!

Ohhhhh, just had a look at my credit card bill for last weekend in Manchester. I spent over £300! That's probably more than it cost me when I went to Spain. I'm gonna have to try and be better with my money. Still, you live and learn.
