A quiet transition..

This was what happened on friday the 20th of March. Gotta show evidence, ya know..It was a pretty good day. Enjoyed reading the cards sent from loved ones back home :D Thanks for those that sent a card. Of course, thanks if u wished me on facebook as well...I'm not fussy. Been enjoying my football, both watching and playing. Haha, think I may have found a 3rd group to play football with. Weird how things just come if u're patient. After a couple of low-key birthday celebrations, I think I should bring it up a couple of notches. Worth keeping in mind for next year :D
So anyway, this was the surprise Stef and Dave got for me. It's a chocolate caterpillar cake. HAHA!! I didn't see it at first..thought that face was distinctly mousy. Still, debate aside, it was a nice cake..U can't go wrong with chocolate.


Ming and Stef. Gemma's never in...

Forgot to make a wish before blowing out the candles.
Haiz, they never come true anyway.

Dave.
Had to rush to catch the train after that to head over to my aunt's for the weekend. It was pretty much the same as usual over there. Good food + good company. Haha, had a ball watching the final 6 nations rugby games on telly. Nail-biting stuff with Ireland completing the Grand Slam thanks to a 50m miss by the welsh kicker with the very last kick of the game. It was a shame for Wales but everyone was rooting for the Irish..haha. Love how passionate the people here are about their sport. Scotland didn't fare very well but people still turn out to watch them play and give their support. It creates such a great atmosphere, even in the pubs.
It's getting to that time where assignments are due. Luckily, I only have the one essay due next week this time. Then a presentation to prepare for and another essay for the final week of term by which I would have completed my Spanish assessment. It's going to be a good couple of months before I head home...FINALLY!! Can't wait...
