Noswaith dda (Good Evening) Sinister! If Im ever going to learn Welsh properly Ill need to start practising daily but making that time can be difficult alike reading posts/posting to Sinister. The original idea when I went to the lessons was to just learn the basics as I always felt completely ignorant when old ladies chatted to me on the street and I didnt even know enough to say Im sorry, I dont understand Im now well past this stage but have started to get into it. Before, I forget - note to Bron and anyone else wondering - Ordinary World is a song by Duran Duran. Apologies if someone else has already mentioned it. Now several people have asked about any pre/post Manchester gig shenanigans but with it being a month away nothing definite has been set. If in time someone decides to take charge please let me know what is going on. Im really pleased that the gig is in the middle of my Easter hols from uni - hehe!! Cay made a fantabulous picnic mummy last time but there seem to be lots of you who are still based in Manchester on the list who may want to take control. Whatever happens its going to be a drastic change from the last time I was in the lovely city, which was for the Frank Morton games last week. This is where all the U.K. university Chemical Engineering departments current and ex-students get together for one day a year (different venue each year), play a bit of sport and for those who do drink alcohol get horribly, horribly drunk and end up in a nightclub filled with just Chem Engers. Its so much fun - this year was my fourth time, hopefully of many more to come. Ive never heard of any other course that does something like this and I think its a shame, but so it goes. Were really (well most of us), a very sociable breed but so many people have a bad perception of what engineers are like. Im actually very gutted that Ive had to stop planning weekends away kayaking/hiking/conservation work/visiting (the possibilities go on for ages) but my design project deadline is looming - aagghhh! I never devote as much time as I should to work but its near on essential at the moment. I really need to clear my head. During the last few weeks the conversations Ive had with certain men have been incredibly messy. The just friends or more than friends borderline has become so blurry it is almost non-existent. I need to decide what to do, but at the minute the thoughts in my head are just going around in circles. Most importantly, I dont want to potentially lose a good friend but sometimes friends can make the best partners. Ive fallen into this trap before and I dont seem to have learnt any lessons from the last time. I know this is vague but if I tried to write down what is going on I would be here for most of the night. Yoga wont solve the problem but it will certainly clear my head for a while which can only be a good thing. I did have lots to say before but tiredness seems to have kicked in a wee bit and more to the point Ive started pondering my relationship dilemmas again. Take care... ...Amy P.S.
