Books Ten, Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen, Films 15 and 16 - and Open University!
This week I have read lots of books! One of which is now on my top ten of all time list, and one of which really underwhelmed me. The other two were just funny, interesting reads.

In other rather exciting news this week, I signed up for an Open University Course – Starting with Psychology – and received the course materials yesterday. I was a bit worried about how much work there would be, and whether I would be able to do it with working, as I became really unmotivated when I was at uni, but I’ve decided I am going to snap out of my laziness and get on with it! In total I have to write three 1000 word essays / question answers – and as this post is probably over 1000 words, I think I should be able to manage that. I did expect there to be some more books etc, theres just one and a dvd, but it does look really interesting. I’m planning to read each chapter through, and then read it again and make notes on it, and then look at some of my other psychology books (I’ve got a few from my mum when she was getting rid of them at work) and read around the subjects covered in the OU book. I’m really looking forward to it now, as when I’ve done this I will be on the way to getting another degree, which is my aim, as I don’t feel that my other one is good enough to get a job that I want. I’ve got a list of courses that I want to do, so my aim is by the time I’m 30 (5 years!! I feel so old now! :( ) I will have another degree. I hope by then I also will have my own house, a lovely relationship and a job which I really love, but I’ll just concentrate on the degree for now!
This weekend its Assemblage 23 and Slimelight – which should be really excellent! Katie is coming down for it – as well as the rest of the Wendyhouse, it seems, haha – and that is really great, we should know lots of people there. I love Slimelight now it has the goth floor the majority of weeks now – its just that it seems to take up so much of my weekend, as I want a lie in on Saturday and want to just sleep as I’m so tired on Sunday, so that’s why I don’t go as much as I would like to. I really should go more though – I might make some friends there and have some people to go to things in London with, that’d be great :)
I’ve just done the word count on this (as I’m writing it in Word), and its almost 1800 words! I know I go on a bit, but I didn’t know it was that much. So now I think I will end, and will be back again a few days to write about more books and films :)
