Splish splash I was taking a bath….
So today I took my first bath in over 4 years I believe. No, its not because I stunk, I normally shower. Nosey.
Now typically, baths have this image of being a wholesome experience that should truly enrich your life and restore all your emotions to balance. So, after having a long day at work where I had been non-stop, I thought this would be the perfect solution to a long day toiling at a computer.
I decided to set the mood by putting on some music, used some mellow lighting (not by choice, had to have a lamp since the main lights’ bulb had blown) and, of course, some soothing bubble bath.
I thought I was all sorted, after clicking play on the album (Rumours by Fleetwood Mac) and getting into the bath at about track 2 (Dreams) I rested my head back on the towel and tried to relax, taking in the sensuous scent of almonds, and enjoying the soothing sounds of Stevie Nicks vocals. And I found I couldn’t relax. My knees were sticking out. My body was crouched into the smaller-than-I-remember tub. The bubbles kept annoying me. I could already feel my fingers pruning. After being tired all day, now that I was in the bath, I was wide awake. To top all that, I got out the bath soon, approximately on track 5 (Go your own way) which meant I had spent about 5 minutes in the bath, which probably is less a time than it took to prepare it all.
Typical. That’ll teach me to try to relax.

Who the hell is Maria Menounos and why on earth is she invading my TV?
That pretty much sums up my annoyance

Oh dear…
Don’t you just hate it when you say something incredibly embarrassing to someone on FB chat, a joke that works between you two about the guy their seeing, just to find it was their guy they are seeing who posted that?
Yeah that just happened to me. Not cool.

Dance with you by Black Lips is a brilliant dirty song. Not dirty lyrically mind, but rather the way the beat gets faster and slower almost lazily, and the distortion of the guitars plus the strained vocals gives it a great feeling of awesomeness.

annoyances
I have been sat in this house all day pretending to do work because I am supposed to have a parcel delivered to me sometime between 9 and 5. It is currently quarter past 3, and I have yet to see anything but the most incredibly warm and sunny day outside which I have in now way been allowed to enjoy because of this PARCEL!!!
I sincerely hope that the lady or gentleman turns up with this parcel soon so I can at least take a walk down the road and feel the sun on my face, rather than having to pretend to enjoy it through a window.

Belated Easter eggs
Since I moved out from home and into the wide world of uni there are certain things you miss out on. Sunday roast dinners, for example , are something I greatly miss being cooked for me, and I never eat them at uni because, well, I am far too lazy to cook something as large as that especially when it is just for me.
What I wanted to talk about was Easter eggs. I am sure that a lot of people out there all enjoyed tucking into their Easter eggs on Easter sunday, full of Easter deliciousness. Easter. However I, being much much further away from my family than the average uni person, and the fact that I didn’t go home for Easter, I was not gifted with this scrummy chocolate delight.
But I have a solution, I have made it my own tradition to buy myself an Easter egg in the reduced sales after Easter has gone, this year I got my self a Cadbury’s double decker one.
But is this actually acceptable, or am I a bit strange? Should I force people to buy me one instead? Answers in comments/on a postcard people!

“Who wants to live forever” by Queen is one of my favourite songs by this much celebrated band. The song, originally written for the film “Highlander”, features Brain May singing the first verse, which I didn’t realise until I decided to post this song. I feel this is severely underrated and a very emotional song that really draws listeners in to it’s beauty.
