So, I've finally found a space in my busy schedule for a new blog post. If this was a spoken statement it would be dripping with sarcasm, because since I returned to the homestead I have done very little. I had good intentions or reading at least 10 pages of 'Hammer's German Grammar and Usage' a day and writing an essay on German terrorism in the late 1960s for fun, but nothing has actually materialised. I have chosen a new pair of spectacles though, with leopard print arms. I will never tire of animal print, it is a love inherited from my Nan, a woman who I consider to be the best dressed octogenarian of all time.
OK, my life has moved to a slower pace for the moment, but it's good. It's given me time to catch my breath and call somewhere home. I haven't been in one country for more than three months at a time since last spring! Coincidently, the place I called home back then was the beautiful Welsh student town of Aberystwyth, the place I've been dreaming about since I left there! It's not cosmopolitan, there a very few shops, but the people that live there are the best friends anyone could ever wish for and the scenery is spectacular.
I'll be back there on Tuesday for some much needed partying and fancy dress for my early 21st birthday celebrations and I'm excited! I started sewing my outfit today and it's going to be a bit more conservative than I'd usually choose. The theme is 'travel', a nice broad topic so people can be as daring as they want. It's not as fun as my 'fashion-disaster' theme last year, which resulted in this bad-boy:
(unfortunately you can't see the matching leopard-print bag and shoes in this picture...).
I seriously need to get some good outfit photos on here, so far we've had Roy Cropper and fashion-disaster, I promise I look semi-chic sometimes!)
