Life!

So much has happeneddddd!
Happenings in quick succession are: ultrasound, no more blood donation :(, uni beginnings, wonderous award for English last year - totally unexpected on my part and a very welcome surprise, and other gloriously mundane events!
Overall, I'm quite happy with life. It's surprising how things change so brilliantly.

Uni is going pretty well so far, there is a LOT of work and heaps of reading to do but I suppose that's what you get when you choose the subjects I'm doing, heh. It's pretty radical. My first assessments are due next week, which is hard to believe! Time goes so quickly.

I was a bit saddened with the iron prognosis, my levels are too low for me to give blood, which is unfortunate. BUT I am on iron supplements so hopefully in a few months I can be back in the game!

I finally finished Dune, the marvellous book by Frank Herbert, and let me tell you, it was quite awesome! I'm not really a fan of sci-fi but this book was seriously amazing, the characters were so well formed and so easily to relate to and there was so much...emotion to it. The movie didn't really do it for me but it did score points on the fact that STING was in the cast! Gotta love it.
I also just finished Siri Hustvedt's new book, The Summer Without Men, which was brilliant beyond belief! I definitely recommend it - again, the main character is sooo relatable, witty and...just so human!

Until next time,
Peace.
