And then there were two...

My new flatmate officially moved in on Thursday. We shall refer to her as LS henceforth. She seems quite nice so far. She is studying to become a high school teacher and works two jobs at the moment.

It's a bit strange after two months having someone in again. And that too, someone I don't know. Apart from that brief stint in February and March this year, I have been living with people I know since December 2008. Whose habits I knew and could anticipate. But now, it's back to trying to suss out the other person's routines.

LS seems to be easy going and has made herself at home (as requested by me). She has added bits of her furniture to the place which is nice. Luckily she does enjoy the occasional drink and sharing a meal every now and then. She is vegan though so that should be interesting given that I eat meat and fish and chicken in addition to vegetarian food. She also recently experienced a couple of crazy flatmates so she has an idea what it's like to live with psychos! And trust me, my history with crazy flatmates is nothing compared to what she had! So here's to a new beginning and hopefully we get along just fine...

Watch this space for more.

Now, this is something I have procastinated on for a long time. Awards. I have received some lovely awards and it's my turn to pass them on after acknowledging the presenters.




I received this award a while back from Vicki. (Thanks!) It's an award for new blogs that you have discovered and want to let them know you love their blogs. I'd like to pass this award on to the following bloggers in no particular order

You are all great bloggers and it's nice to read your blogs every time there's a new post :)


I received this award from Guria (Thank you!) and to be honest, I am uncertain about it's purpose. I'm going to assume that it's about awareness and education and information and on that basis, I'd like to pass this award on to the blogs that teach me something almost every time I read them. So, in no particular order, I'd like to present this award to:
And finally, the third award also presented by Guria again (Thanks!) which I would like to present to all the blogs I visit every day (or whenever updated) and love. In no particular order, I am presenting the following award to



G
Matt Parker (who is currently on hiatus)

So there! That's that. I honestly enjoy reading everyone's blog and others who are blogrolled but probably not on here.

Anyway, hope everyone has a lovely Sunday and a great week ahead!

Until next time,

Cheers!!!
