Stuff

Well, again, this is the problem with not posting often enough - I find I think up stuff I want to say in a post, then I don't write it - saying I will later - then think up even more stuff to say, and so end up saying none of it ! So it goes in the world of Ro's blog. This shall therefore be a short post (for me that is, lol!) which is not very exciting and containing none of the things which I originally intended to blog about, in true Ro Rambling style:

1) Life at uni is hard. It's a shock being thrown back in at the deep end again - you'd think after 7 terms of this I'd be used to the going in and out by now ! But no, it feels completely different each time. I am feeling a bit overwhelmed atm, work and other stuff. In consequence, I feel really bad, cause on the one hand, when people ask me how I am, if I say - "I'm fine thanks", I'm not really telling the truth and so end up feeling rubbish. But , if I say "I'm not great", then I have to precede to say why, which is long and complicated, and also makes me feel rubbish because it makes me feel like I'm dumping on people, as I always feel I do at Uni. Also, sometimes there's nothing I'd like more than to tell people how I'm really feeling, that is, if I actually knew how to express it in words - it can get very frustrating to say the least. So I therefore tend to go for a middling option, trying to making light of things, of "I'm not wonderful, but it'll be ok. Moving swiftly on, how are you ?" But yes, things will be fine really. I just really need to stop pretending that problems just go away if you ignore them !! I can't believe how stressed I am already - and I was supposed to not be getting stressed this term !

2) I have made a new addition to the sidebar of this blog, as you will see - it's not until I added it, that I realised actually how many quotes I have which I like ! So, I may rotate them quite frequently. The quote doesn't look entirely how I want it to, but until I make time to go through a proper HTML tutorial, it will stay that way unfortunately. If there are any suggestions of quotes, comment and they will be considered !

3) I have also added my MySpace page as a link. This is a fairly recent addition to my online profile pages (now number 3 I think in total) and so it is not wildly exciting. I made it mainly so I can chat to friends online on it, so if anyone does also have a MySpace page, then tell me and I'll add you.

Well, exciting as that has been, I think I must go and sleep - I could blog on many other things, but I do want to be able to follow my 9 lecture tomorrow morning ! So, farewell for now.

Hello Ro, I just got a comment you left ages ago on my blog saying about comments and such. So I thought I'd come post on yours and let you know that it is being read, regularly, by at least one person.
The reason I haven't posted any comments is that I haven't thought of anything intelligent to say that would do justice to this splendid weblog.

I like the pink.

Thanks Roberto. And thanks for commenting. I'm glad to hear that you consider my blog to be ok by your standards ;-) and am very glad you like the pink, lol.

(p.s.I read your blog regularly too.)
