Just been looking for shoes on schuhshop.com, but all the pretty ones I like seem to have disappeared :( (taps Schuh). But then again, a pair of shoes I liked in November that were in the Schuh magazine/catalogue were never on at all, so possibly shuhshop.com is simply stupid. Yes. That works.

Last night was strange, but not unpleasant. After declining to go to a curry house with my radio friends because urgh, curry, I somehow ended up in our local pub/cafe thing with all my housemates and Hannah (a boy housemate's girlfriend, who is blonde and lovely and sings in a choir, and will be living with us next year), a never-before-seen occurence. We discussed many topics, fuelled by alcohol and sugar, including Hannah possibly writing an essay on porn music for her Film Music module, and us all living in Sherwood Forest next year and riding horses to campus, which I did not disapprove of. The day I ride a wild stallion down the stairs of my lecture hall, then calmly dismount and sit down, is the day I can die a happy lady (provided I have been to Cuba and seen a wolf for proper by that point).

Jos (a boy, but not Hannah's boyfriend) also mentioned the uni creative writing magazine, which people will not let him join, though it is surely a uni magazine and not owned by no-one. They've only put out 2 issues in 2 years anyway, so clearly need all the help they can get. And are stupid. It reminded me that I keep meaning to submit things to them, which are even half-written, and less than a page long each, which clearly proves my crapness at not even being able to finish them. And now jos wants me to write my Apocalypse, Now parody (Graduation, Now), and words will drown me soon. Yes.

On a lighter, dancier note, there is a Swing Night a week on Monday in Ark. Yay. Swing music and dancing, of course. Not what you are thinking. Certainly not. No. But I've been interested in swing dancing for a bit (aka many years) and it is a mere £2, so possibly it will a marvellous evening. May even pop into the handknitting class too, and learn how to knit myself a scarf. Why Don't U scheme, I love you.
