Essay done and done!

Thank goodness that's the essay finished and handed in! To be honest, it wasn't my best effort but I think it'll get a pass. I know it's pretty sad but my favourite part of the essay is doing all the footery stuff, making title pages look pristine, getting bibliographys and lists of illustration done up, making sure captions are in order etc. I've got a wee compulsive thing about uniformity in essays hehe. So it was handed in yesterday.

The new term started on Monday (there was meant to be a new project but no notices up on the notice boards indicating an introductory lecture or anything...) It annoys me a wee bit about the department's arranging something and nothing happening or arranging something and putting the notice up the day before/on the day. But I shouldn't be complaining as I've lots of other stuff on my plate at the moment.

As I am completely skint I've had to start a drawing which I was commissioned to do by a family friend in order to get money to go to my Metallica gig on Thursday (Can't wait!!). Get paid the day after it which is a bit of a bummer, but at least I won't spend all my wages at the gig :)
So yesterday I spent my last pennies getting paper and a steel rule to start the drawing. Looking forward to starting it though, I enjoy analytical drawings and they really improve my skills. Also, money being an issue means I can't get my mum anything for mother's day this Sunday. Oops, going to have to be a hippy for a day and go pick daffodils or something!

Also I'm trying to get back on the diet as of this week (waste of time really considering the amount of beer that'll be getting drunk at metallica) so I started my day this morning with my stretches and 200 sit ups. Not bad. Put's a wee spring in your step for the rest of the day!
