Freedom or something close to it

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

I am free! I have finished my exams and I’m now banishing their existence to the back of my brain (or attempting to anyway). I have to wait till August 14th till I find out the results so I’m trying to convince myself that worrying is pointless.

As promised I’ve taken over the housekeeping duties for my mother. So far my cooking hasn’t turned out to be that bad and I’ve even done a little bit of cleaning. Not much. I did some tidying yesterday and started the hoovering today, I didn’t finish on account for the fact that I accidentally sucked up this perfumed ball from the poupouri and it clogged the vacuum. I then had my hair cut and got some groceries. It was odd leading my mum round the shop, I had a list and was being very single minded about it but she kept wandering and throwing other stuff in the trolley. Not quite the exercise in living on a budget she promised but I’m not complaining.

I’m going to attempt to structure my days so that I get all the chores done but still have time to fulfill my summer projects. I’ve always been rubbish about estimately how long something takes to do so it’s going to be interesting to see how that goes.

On another note I finally managed to watch the CSI:NY premiere for season four today. I’d missed it when it was on Five for the first time and had thought I’d have to wait until the end of September for the boxset before I’d get to see it. I’ve written a review for it and posted it at the addicted and I’ll post it here tomorrow.
