Life is for living :-)

I am writing this sat in my newly decorated room with my desk facing out the window to the snow covered garden!:) good moment!

I've had a good few days...on thursday i went out to see my old college friends band play. They're called Nanook and the Sleazy Pancakes and were very good :) Then went to a jazz bar and listened to a band who i'm pretty sure played at my sisters wedding. They're really brill and i am a leetle bit jealous (and in awe of!) the main girl she's brilliant i'd love to be able to skat about like her and stuff... so relaxed too and having fun. This man also said 'do you want to learn to jive dance?' (a lady sat near us had just been dancing with him) and proceded to teach me to do so. That was really fun! As everyone was bopping to the music and a few people dancing and stuff and the relaxed happy atmosphere it made me think back to the time I went to Kosovo whilst I was college age. I remember being in a resteraunt there and by the end of the meal literally the whole resteraunt was up and dancing holiding hands and it was so fun. The Kosovon people would dance at any opportunity which I totally loved :) Yeh it set me day dreaming back to then and thinking how life is for living and we shouldn't hold ourselves back from things we want to do or express - I guess in Kosovo they know this in such a greater degree because of things they have been through.

On Friday I had a fairly relaxed day - began by watching the final episode of Misfits as I had my brekky (totally into misfits!!). Yesterday with my family I spent most of the day sorting out my room - there's still more to do but done quite alot. In the evening watched the film 'doubt' with my parentals - good film thought that Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman were brilliant. I've only really seen Hoffman in comedy before I thought he was really good and of course Streep is a bit of a legend... whilst watching it I put on some fake nails which sounds tacky but they're really nice they're made by 'Real Life' - I actually bought them because of a video by the make-up guru Elle on Youtube (I'm a little addicted to her videos :P )

Today went to church meeting and it was a special Christmas one with the kids doing songs and stuff like that so cute and caught up with some amazing people I've missed alot whilst being at uni. This evening we have a Christmassy evening thing we have every year which I'm so excited before just hope it doesn't snow so much that we can't go!:-S
