Weddings and diets and babies! Oh my!
Yes... Went to Lucy's engagement party yesterday afternoon. Family, selected friends and bridesmaid (me being one of the chosen ladies). It's not as scary as everyone seems to be making out but it does make you think. I can't imagine myself getting married in the next few years like a number of my friends from school now are. I am in no way saying that the engagements are a bad idea, everyone wants different things from life. That's what makes the world exciting! But I don't really know what i want to do in life yet so how can i plan a wedding and a life with someone else without first being comfortable with me?! Meh.
Pete and i have started talking about what is going to happen next year after we graduate. Just about living arrangements. I think that if i can get the funding i'll stay on and do a masters. I don't want to leave uni yet and i think it will help me decide whether or not i want to persue a career in classics/archaeology/ancient history. I would like to. To be honest i'm not really thinking past my extended essay at the mo but i'm excited about the modules i'm doing next year. I just hope i get the oppurtunity to really throw myself into my course this year without too many other worries. I want to make the best of it and if i can get a first then great.
Talking about diets. I was speaking to some of the girls from school and we got onto the subject of when i lost nearly 3st in 3months in yr13. It has only been very recently that i have realised that the reason why i lost so much so quickly was because i wasn't actually eating anything. I started off following a diet but gradually just stopped eating very much at all. It took me over a year to get back into a relatively healthy way of thinking. I never stopped eating or took any other drastic methods but i remember for a year feeling so guilty about anything that i ate that i didn't really enjoy it. I thought i was eating normally, that's the worrying thing. How shit is that?! Anyone whose knows me well will know that i love my food, i love cooking and i especially love cooking for other people. But the prospect of always having to watch what i eat is depressing. Very depressing. *shrug*
On the subject of babies, i went round to jo's yesterday and i finally met baby Reilly. Now five months old with two front teeth. Lovely baby, really sweet. We enjoyed some cuddles, a rusk and some milk. Ah, simple pleasures. I made him laugh by doing guppy faces
Well, that's about it for now.
