My last couple of days at home were lovely. 
Going out drinking on Friday was great! Not everyone who said they’d turn up did, but the ones who did made it awesome! Even my wee sis KayKay/Edd/Ednie (it changes with the mood) came and drank with us.
It was great seeing her again. We went out for sushi on Wednesday, too (I asked if she wasn’t bored with Japanese food, but she was all for it) and we had so much to talk about! Also made me realise how unbelievably much I have actually missed her… You push that stuff to the back of your mind when you’re far away from people, but it catches up eventually.
My old friend Aurora also turned up, whether randomly or by design I’m not sure, but boy has it ever been ages since I last saw her! Must be at least a year and a half. I think she attended my 21st birthday party, at least… Not sure whether that was the last time I saw her. Fun, anyway. And yes, believe it or not, that’s probably the most flattering picture I got of her…
Saturday we did the whole family lunch t my mum’s. My godmother and her husband and eldest son attended (her son’s wife was ill and couldn’t come) and my goddaughter and her parents were there, too.
My goddaughter is the cutest thing! She’s getting to be quite big now, too. Absolutely adorable! And chatty as hell, though her language skills are still quite limited and I must admit I don’t always understand what she’s getting at… Still, cute! And she seems to like me, which is lucky if I’m gonna be babysitting her and stuff when she gets a bit older.
So, yesterday I went back here. Traveled all day. Spent two hours at Schiphol again. I had salmon miso ramen there. Yum! Then, when I landed, I headed straight back to Walsall to drop off all my stuff, fixed myself up as best I could and went off to Wolverhampton for dinner with Emma and people. It was so great to see her again! Wish I had had the sense to take some pictures… We ate at Dilshad. Awesome Indian food!
Today I had Employability & Enterprise again. My group is coming together okay, but there’s still a lot to do. We tried to rehearse this afternoon. Didn’t go too well. We found a room to practice in, but then it turned out someone else had “booked” it. I think priority should be given to those of us who have less time left, but whatever… We’ve booked a rehearsal for Thursday, at least.
Right now I’m stressing out about my interim task for Wednesday because there might not be time to run through the songs with my band beforehand… We were planning on just doing it on Wednesday morning, but now that slot is booked by the university for all rooms, apparently.
As for E&E, I guess as long as I know all my stuff and we manage to get something done on Thursday we’ll be okay. I think we’ve given ourselves too short a deadline for this… But at least Denise and I have a good idea of what we’re gonna do for the Songwriting Workshop.
Afterwards, I went to Wetherspoon with Chantal and Lucy. It was great! We’re thinking of making a weekly thing out of it, which I would just love. It’s so nice getting to hang out with people just for a quiet drink and some food. Makes me happy!
