Catching Up, (or, Why I'm Actually Glad I Couldn't Afford to Go to the College of Occupational Therapists Conference)
I finished my second year at university at the end of May. Lots of assignments and deadlines... so pleased that's over! I also had a journal club to coordinate.
Once that was over, we moved house which was an ordeal!
A few days into living at our new house, I went on holiday to Norway with the boyfriend. It was just five days - but we packed each day with sight-seeing and exploration.
The day after we returned from Norway, I went on a two-day Model of Creative Ability course in Edinburgh. The course was intense but very interesting. A useful tool to add to my toolbox. I spent two nights in a youth hostel with a beanbag cinema, which was a fun new experience (but I consequently didn't get much sleep).
Seeing Avenue Q has been on my bucket list for five years and when I spotted a poster for it at the train station, I spontaneously booked a ticket for a show a couple days later. So it was back on the train (to Glasgow this time). Although I have listened to the music, read about it, and watched the videos too many times to count, I was still amazed at how fantastic the show was. I loved it so much that I was tempted to get in the queue for tickets to the next show.
My time since getting back from Glasgow has been dedicated to preparing for my sister's 18th birthday party (at our not-yet-unpacked) house. And finally yesterday, I played chef/party organiser until the early hours of the morning.
Today, I have mostly been horizontal.
Busy time, hey. The COT conference certainly takes some getting over as my afternoon nap can attest (it was excellent though).
Avenue Q is fantastic, glad you got to cross it off your list.
Sounds busy but like your having a great time - I couldn't afford COT conference either but hoping to go to Glasgow next year for it!
