What I've been upto

I've been fairly caught up in college work recently and the process of applying to art schools. I really want to get into Edinburgh, so fingers crossed. I submitted my mini portfolio on Friday last week, now I have to wait hear back from them. I'm very excited about the thought of getting into uni and the idea of finally living by myself in a flat of my own, although my parents want me to live the halls of residency. My problem with that is that I really don't want to live with other people, particularly students, they're loud and annoying and fair more sociably than myself. But I think my parents want me to live in halls because it will be cheaper and there's a chance I won't become a hermit.

A couple of weeks ago I went to London with my boyfriend for the weekend and it was fantastic. We went to Hamley's, the big toy shop, it is foor floors of fun! And best of all they had a whole section full of Harry Potter stuff, like all the wands you could ever think of, James Potter, Lilly Potter, all of the Weasleys, everyone. I was very tempted to buy either Neville's or Luna's wands but held back because I didn't really want spend £20 on something I wasn't sure I could fit in my suit case to take home, so I ended up buying a deathly hallows keyring. We also went to the zoo, which was about a 10 minute walk from our hotel. It's not as big as Edinburgh zoo, so I was a little disappointed by that but it was still a great day out. I'm not going to lie either, I got very excited when I recognised the reptile house from seeing it in the first Harry potter movie. We went for dinner in a place in Camden called The Diner, it was so cool mainly because dinners are not something we get here in the UK. I could of stayed there all day and ate the whole time, it was amazing.

Other than that not much has really happened in my life and I don't think I have much coming up. All I really have panned is to finish all the books I started and gave up on, right now I'm on How To Be a Woman by Catilin Moran which is a fantastic book about feminism and a great read. But the list of unfinished books is fairly long, so I won't mention anymore.
