And so, after two and a half rather unspectacular hours of exploring Brecht's theatrical intentions and outlining my set design ideas for Alan Ayckbourn's 'Bedroom Farce', my thirteen year long school career dribbles apologetically out of the door, and I stand on the brink of the rest of my life making worried faces.

Still got the school play to go before it's all over.

Got shouted at by a farmer today for walking on his land. Although if you ask me if he's careless enough to leave his gate open without any "private" signs up, he deserves to have people walking on his field...

The Alpacas have been sheared, and I saw some curlews, although they didn't look very much like this...


I have a sort throat, and I couldn't find any throaty sweets in Somerfield. Still, I have found some Boots things that seem to be helping.

Having spoken to Danny Broderick of the Writing Squad, the decision has been made to start a poetry magazine!

Look out Sheffield Libraries, we're coming to get you.

I find myself in a gloomy mood for no reason...

Father's Day has reached us, and in light of its arrival I would like to say a very belated, happy and lovely father's day to my own father, Pete.

Happy Father's day Pete!


It's a shame I don't get to see you as often as we'd both like, but rest assured I have not forgotten you! And do not worry, I shall be inflicting myself (and most probably Laura) upon you during the summer holidays, so there's no escape!

Remember to have lovely times whenever and wherever possible

Love, hugs and all that

Well, had my theatre studies exam this morning- it seemed to go qute well, and if nothing else, it means I only have two exams left- hoorah!

Had a lovely bath, and some nice ice-cream (although not at the same time)

Adam Hopeless continues (by force) to gain popularity on myspace, and I strive to write a new tune, and fail.

Moew news as it comes, I'm off to bed now. It is 23.59

Well, one down, three to go.

It's interesting when you open the paper and they tell you to start the exam when suddenly all your nerves go out the window and your mind just goes into exam mode and you sart working; for the first twenty minutes or so you're (or at least I was) pretty much unaware of anything else and just completely focused. Of course, it all goes out of the window soon enough and you're back to staring at paper lines...

Still, it went as well as it was ever going to, and I don't have to think about Measure for Measure anymore!

Saw two blue jays on the way to a barbeque last night. They're much bigger than I expected.

Goodness it's hot!

Ate (too much) Chinese buffet today. The walk home was slow and warm and bloated, but happy still am I.

Here is a picture of a Summer Tanager, in honour of the season

Ironically enough, Lesley and Andrew bought me a big box of chocolates for looking after Sadie :)

I've made up a tune which I can now neither get out of my head, nor work out how to play on anything.

This dog clearly doesn't have that problem.
