Just in time for summer eh. Somehow it actually feels like spring is overdue, with all this rain and cloudy weather here in Oxford. I went to Bicester yesterday, and got myself some new clothes, since some my other ones were realllly worn out. Bicester seemed like a nice, quaint little place, with a good shopping village. The prices were much cheaper than in Oxford anyway, but it can't compare with the volume you'd get in somewhere like Birmingham or London. I got a nice brownish Diesel hoodie, a few tees, and a great looking Ralph Lauren black jacket, which looked sophisticated and cool at the same time! ...that still cost me an arm and a leg though, even at Bicester prices. Didn't need jeans, so I didn't get anything else.
Raining again. This weather...
My first post since I got back to England. Well, whats been happening over here? Finished all my coursworks and now just getting ready for the finals in June. Hopefully they will go well. ( I REALLY HOPE SO!) I can't believe I miss driving around so much now! Although I did manage to get seriously darker than when I got there, hehe.
I started watching a new anime series (for me), which is quite popular now, known as Naruto. I think its brilliant. Its got a good plot line, great animation and artwork, also some nice humour and fightscenes in it. Although sometimes the flashbacks get a little too much, I realise that you needed them to realise a lot about each character's history. And its also one of its finer points that almost all the characters are connected, either by just a coincidential meeting, or something even more significant. Right now I'm on episode 130, and its still going strong! Its got quite a fan base now. If anyones interested in it, try Naruto Chaos.
By the way, what episode is Smalleville upto, I wonder. I'm on 4-16 myself.

Pictures?
I should probably post some more pictures. This place is getting pretty drab eh. Soon...soon.
We had a suprise birthday party for my cousin Rani, who just turned 14. I'm pretty sure she was quite oblivious to the fact that there were about 20 ppl running around the house getting everything ready! Must have been the sleeping pills mum popped her with. :D We actually got the wrong cake first, and I left with another cousin (yes I do have many cousins, its a lot of fun really) to get our actual cake. On the journey to the cake shop (appropriately named Nice In Ice, or Ice is Nice..I forget which) I almost dropped the cake as another motorbike almost hit us! Stupid idiot (the other guy) was wavering from side to side on middle the road, and then mouthed off at us afterwards...
Luckily it all went without a hitch and Rani was quite surprised (shocked more likely, that we would even get a cake and let it stay that way without tasting it) and we all enjoyed cramming 20 people into a table for 6. Good fun I say!

In a few minutes....
....I'll be getting my driving licence! Whoooo! They'd better have it ready by the time I get there...or I'll...just have to wait I guess. Went for a ride in a mate's new car last night. It was a Hyundai some model, a nice car really, handled really well.
Also, counting down to when I have to leave again. Its only 4 days left! (or 5, depending on how you count)

Too common for my own good?
As per regulations, I'm contracted my (almost) monthly dose of Rhinovirus, resulting in another meeting with my life-long companion, Common Cold. Sigh. I wonder if I have a defective immune system, or maybe it just doesn't exist as far as colds are concerned! I guess I'll just have to wait till this passes, just in time for the next. AAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTCHOOOOOOOOO!
Good news. Passed my driving test on thursday. It might be a while before I get the licence though. I'm also still waiting to retake my motorbike test. I committed a slight error on my first try. Don't ask. :D
