If life were a bowl of cherries...

]Home again, for ummm..... 2 and a half days :D in which I must!:

1. Sew on MANY nametapes (JOY!) (may take to sizewell... not sure)
2. Finish buying such stationary as I can not buy at school
3. LEARN the rest of the: Motzart oboe sonata, my piano scales, Leighton, Brahms, ;ast few bars of piano pieces!
4. Finish mending my clothes.......
5. Pack for sizewell
6. Clean, hoover and remove boxes of Mum's and Heather's stuff from room
7. FINISH THE ANNOYING MOSAIC PUZZEL WHICH I HAVE SPENT THE LAST WEEK DOING (indulged myself and bought the "Tough Puzzles" Logic Puzzle book which is awesome, some easy, some just long and some difficult but all very good at keeping me in some semblance of "sane-ness")
8. Write to: Auntie Jean with photo of ball dress
9. At least draw out the patterns for some of the gorgeous skirts and dresses I found on holiday - festivals are so good for inspiration and a lot of the stuff is done in random patchwork which is good because I'm not short of materal scraps - open beg for red/orange/green/ maybe blue material scraps people might want to to dump on me
10. Finish reading "The Hinge Factor" - can span into term time - excellent book, thought provoking, intelligent and fun
11. Sleep (optional!)

Anyway... just back from Towersey Folk Festival which was amazing fun. Updates on that along with the Soul Survivor ones, pros and cons of being overly analytical and the notes on the very good sermon we had on the Leviticus food laws we had about 9 months ago :P Short summery: dance, dance, singing, Spooky Men's Chorale, Craig;Morgan;Robson, dance, good weather, amazing amounts of *interesting* drag, good friends and little sleep.

 

Thought:

 

In all relationships there are difficulties where people disagree and argue causing tension which needs to be resolved. How often do relationships break down between two people because friends sit there telling x that they did nothing wrong and must wait for y to apologise. Unfortunately x's friends will hear the story from them and the same for y's and both sets of friends will invariably go (as good friends) "But that was so wrong of them" and if either listen fully to their friend's advice then both will refuse to accept any responsability and the relationship crumbles. It doesn't really matter what the disagreement is, whoever's fault it is, it needs to be resolved mutually if you want to continue the relationship.

 

Obviously in some circumstances one party may need to give way more than the other either to stop doing something that is deliberately highly antagonistic or to start doing something that will build a relationship they want to keep, but the agreement still has to be mutual, and therefore both people have to be willing to make allowances and move on.

 

Second Thought:

Almost all songs can be classified into one of 3 catorgories:

• Sex
• Death
• God

However there are a few songs (Wonderful World, Kestrels Shanties :P, a few nursary rhymes, Wind Beneath my Wings...) which I really can not fit to these catorgories... Any sugestions?

 

Ok: to the list above add: tidy kitchen and pick blackberries - if anyone wants some dont hesitate to ask!!

 

Must go and do something now
